So I recently got a new skate ramp and my friend came over with his deck. We were doing some stuff on it and then I screwed up and went flying. I landed on my back and right arm, and then I fell twice more and landed on my foot. So I have a sprained foot, I think a fractured bone, and I just did something to my neck. I am so not doing gym class tomorrow.
If you want to see sorta what I did, here's my friend Joey doing a slightly less painful version of it: Boom.

Well, most of my friends have started school by now. But I still haven't. I'm not home schooled or anything; I just start school on September 8th instead.
So I just wanna ask as a question of the day - How is school going for you? Is it better or worse than previous years, and do you have high or low expectations for it?

July 5th, Drake Bell is coming to within an hour of my house.
For a free concert.
Do you know how psyched I am?
He's like, my idol! His music is revolutional, and he's an amazing and inspiring guitarist!
So, my question of the day is, who is your idol, and why? (Outside of family.)
But that's really all that mattered to me today. This is Taki, and you've just been filled in.

Edit: Two things. For one, we can't make the concert because my dad has a bulging disk in his
Something interesting about the new Fall Out Boy single "What a Catch, Donnie" that I found was the fact that the background tracks of other songs aren't sung by FOB. They are actually the lead singers from a ton of other bands that were singing them. Here's a list.
* Elvis Costello - "Headfirst Slide into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet"
* Gabe Saporta (Midtown), (Cobra Starship) - "Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy"
* Travis McCoy (Gym Class Heroes) - "Sugar, We're Goin' Down"
Apparently I've had a forced name change. It'll go back to some variant of Tak•E sooner or later. Though I feel like a horrible Wall•E fan by not using the •...

Hey, everybody! It's been a long time! A really long time! I just wanted to update you on a few things, and explain why you never see me posting, blogging, or PMing anymore.
I've transferred out to a public high school, and now am in a ton of choirs and show choirs in the school. It keeps me very busy. I've also increased my social life highly, and am working toward getting sing lessons and a job soon. This is all keeping me from BZPower. I will no long really be posting anymore. I might resp
I know, right? First thing you noticed! I didn't use •'s in my title! that's because they were in the Wall•E name. I just saw the movie, as you might be able to tell by my avatar and banner. And I'm in love with it! Wall•E and Eve are undoubtedly the most amazing couple in the history of, well...EVER! So yeah, that's pretty much it.
Question of the day: Did you see Wall•E? What were your thoughts?
P.S. Yes, I am aware of the environmentalist and other implications of the movie. I don't car
I'm thinking of setting internation days for you. You'll get your own banner and every day it's a different member, and everyone can add it into their sig. I need at least seven members in order to do this, so just let me know. All members that join must wear the banners for the days.

This morning, for once in a million days, I'm stuck at home with a fever. Nothing severe, but it was strong enough to crash me yesterday. I decided to stay home from school so I could recuperate. As I was semi-sleeping on the couch (meowing kittens outside were keeping me up - more on those cuties later), I got a text from my good friend who moved out to LA recently.
"Did u hear the news bout steven curtis chapmans daughter?"
That's what my friend asked me. Naturally I replied no and waite
Yeah, so it's around eleven o'clock last night and it started raining so I pulled the screen out of my window so I could let my feet hang over the edge and get wet. However, I heard something move in the bushes so I pulled my legs in and leaned over the edge. My window ledge was slippery from the water on it and I, oddly enough, slipped and started to fall out the window. I reached up in vain and caught the edge of the window ledge. And that is the amazing story of my little trip. I'm fine now,
So I recently lost a sister to the deadly grasp of college, and since then I've been depressed and pushing away from people. But I thought that I might let you all in on something that I've been keeping in the dark for a while.
I love being in a relationship, treating a girl with love and affection, and being loved back. So way back in Feb. I asked this girl to be my girlfriend on Valentine's Day, and she said yes. About two weeks later she wanted to break up with me because people were telli
I've been awake for a while now.
You've got me feeling like a child now.
'Cause every time I see your bubbly face,
I get the tingles in a silly place.
It starts in my toes,
And I crinkle my nose.
Wherever it goes I'll always know,
That you make me smile.
Please stay for a while now.
Just take your time,
Wherever you go.

This is actually a song that is special to me. I'm sure a lot of you know it. If not, go and look for it.
No question of t
Well, I'm back. It wasn't as long as an absence as last time, luckily. (My last unexpected take of leave was for a period of months.) But, not much has happened in the past days. The only thing of interest was going up to Wisconsin to visit a soda bottling plant. My dad took me up because he had to go and deliver some of his formulas to the plant manager. They package the Wallgreens bottle sodas, which apparently my dad formulated - which is the reason we have so much of it in my fridge. So next
As I woke up today and yesterday, I found myself in utter shock that I wasn't leaping up or getting yelled at for not getting ready for school. The feeling itself was bittersweet. For one thing, no more school for three months! (Yes, I literally get three months. I don't go back till September 8th.) For another thing, I get to sleep in all summer. That's an upside, but it doesn't really matter that much; I don't need much sleep - I nap. But then there was one thing that had me in tears even as I
Some of you may remember a long time ago, I posted a blog entry about my Rewind mixes that I was making. Well, that was a long time ago, and I think I'm gonna finish that long overdue project. I have my first two mixes up. Even though they have some retarded songs, they still are pretty good.
I'll post more on it later. Oh, and the revamp on the blog has begun.

So I was riding my bike and I rode down the hill to get to the horse stable next door (my friend who's a junior is the son of the owners, so he goes there a bit and we hang out). As he's getting in his car, I head down the really long downhill driveway, which is just like mine, gravel included. However, I ran into this deep patch of gravel and the bike slid out to the right. I got pinned under it. I got back up and my knee was bleeding, I could tell. My gears came loose on my bike, too. So I wal
Well, The All-American Rejects's first single was released today from their new album When The World Comes Down. But you can't download it yet...
However, I got it. I do that a lot, don't I? I can't say the name of the single, but for the next 24 hours, if you're a member on their site, it's streaming on there. I ripped a pretty clean version of the song, so if anyone wants it, post a comment or drop me your email.

Perhaps that will be my next color? The red reminds me of blood too much. Also, if none of you have heard the song Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequin, I highly suggest looking it up. It's very good.
Well, after a semi-absence, I've returned to BZP for the last few weeks before school starts. It's pretty...normal, actually. The only thing I'm waiting for is trying to decide what new phone I should get. Lol.
I'm on T-Mobile, any ideas?

As of 8:32:47 Central Time (Chicago), I am officially fifteen. I'm posting this right now, because technically it's the last...now twelve minutes...of my actually birthday. It was pretty amazing, if I do say so myself. Friends, cake, gifts, and even some reflecting. With age comes wisdom, after all.
So, my question of the day, or more so night, is what was one of your most memorable birthdays, and what made it like that? Comments and replies go in the reply box down below. This is Taki, wishi
