ok, last night i was SUPPOSSED to go to the temple, but my ride changed plans and went to a different party instead. but she gave me directions and said it's really easy...after which i spent literally two hours driving around the vicinity of the temple (or so i assumed from the HUGE quantity of cars parked EVERYWHERE) till 2:00am when i said fuck it. so how do i actually get there? i was told it was on 19th and....ralliegh? but there didn't seem to be a ralleigh.

Bad directions happens to everyone, but i don't see it significant enough to be posted!

I always have ridden the MAX, gotten off at Civic Stadium, and walked down 19th to Raleigh...it's a walk, but who cares? The Temple is worth it! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

godlike: well i didn't think i was going to need mapquest because i got directions from someone who'd been to the temple like, a hundred times, but i guess that'll learn me to not ask a pothead how to get somewhere.

kill_happy: yeah, i can't say that getting lost isn't kinda fun, or at least somewhat exciting, but not when i'm trying to get to the temple!

jackie: um...i think you win. although on friday night, my friend was stupid enough to half-run a stop sign and almost hit a cop when he had well over a case of beer and god-knows how much weed in his car. luckily, he only got a ticket for the stop sign. idiot.

missjasmine: i'll e-mail you after class. thanx.

yeah ravers give shitty directions. images/smilies/mad.gif

all i'm saying is if theres an event in the middle of nowhere, have the directions have mileages. the mileage counter *so* comes in handy for that kind of shit.

hehe, its funny that your friend had so much contraband in the car and nearly hit a cop. haha, nothing better dumb luck when the driver is driving like a reckless idiot. glad u guys didn't get busted tho. maybe you'll have even better luck next time and actually get to the party! images/smilies/smile.gif

First of all - It's usually the journey, not the destination that will bring you the most joy or sorrow. Make sure you have fun on your way to anywhere, if you miss the party or can't find it - then you still have had a great night.

Second - I have been to the Temple unfteen million times, I have been to Portland even more then that.. I get lost EVERY time I go to the Temple or anywhere in PDX - I have fun exploring PDX, drive around until I have no clue where I am at anymore. Then pick a random gas station and pick up a map. As long as I have a map and a street address I can usually find anything.

I love Portland.. everytime I go I say how much I hate it and their roads.. but I know it is like that just to test me.

getting lost is alright. except if you need to not get lost, such as the case in going to a temple party.

love wesley. the lost temple.
