It's upsetting, to me, that when a class is watching a video in relation to terrible events that have occurred, they laugh. Or make jokes. Or they insult those depicted in the video.
It's sickening.
After listening to many songs over the past few hours, I went on a productive writing rampage on a project of mine. Got the very, very first part finished, worked out the events from there and reread the first bit some eight times already. All I need to do to it, in my opinion, is rewrite the combat scenes -- more detail, emotion is needed. What I have is more... of a "here's how it's gonna go down."
Working up to the fight in the next bit is going to be fun.
So yeah, I feel like a beast
It's not that good, I admit, but it was like... the first mechanical/Bionicle based drawing I've done since like... sixth grade. There's a lot of problems with it, that I took notes on a separate paper about (The hands aren't really the same, there's some structural differences. The eyes are slightly off, and the details on the upper legs look pretty flat). But enough of my rambling (and I took a pic of it with a camera... scanner... it's just not liking me). It also looks more Toa-esque than ma
I saw this movie a little while ago, I didn't blog anything about it due to the state of affairs at the time.
Regardless.
If you haven't seen this movie, then I implore you to go and watch it. Wait for it on DVD if you must, rent it if you will, but it is by far one of the best movies I've watched within the last three years.
As for haters, they can all go eat gravel.

This is a club, but what is this club all about? This club is all about love, and is a place where hate is shunned because hate isn't awesome. So smile, be happy, hug and other such things~

The ones that flow with that soft air of tragedy about them, the instruments and tone being the aspects that make the song feel bittersweet, even if it's in a different language. And reading through the lyrics, realization of "I wasn't too far from the truth" comes forth and as the song plays again; a series of the most tragic, yet sweet scenes play through the mind.
Some scenes are painted in that faded, off color fashion that tend to signify memories, other scenes look more present, the pr
If there were forums hundreds of years ago and stuff, what do you think prominent historical figures would post?
Inspired by a random discussion on AIM, in which historical figures trolled things.
I don't know if this show is still on the air, I didn't look into that. But from the handful of episodes of it that I've watched, it just makes me want to hug some of the people in the show.
From what I gather, the show's basically a social experiment. They hire actors to play out scenes, in public locations, that generally have a victim and an aggressor -- real life scenarios. Things that actually happen. The point is to see how other people react to it; do the people (who have no knowledge
When someone posts in a topic, particularly a topic requesting an opinion, I enjoy reading the posts that answer the question "why." For instance, someone enters a topic asking what your favorite color is and they just say "green," that word alone doesn't entice much discussion, or much thought. However, when someone asks "why do I like green" and answers it in their post, effectively explaining why they like that color, the post suddenly becomes much more interesting and has more of a potential
If I took like, seven online quizzes that all came up with the same result, would that result actually start to have any meaning?
Curious about thoughts on that, though my boredom induced mass-quiz taking sort of got me wondering what others thought.
For many, many reasons, but the one that finally drove the nail through the brain was the worst chart for an essay outline I ever had the misfortune to fill out. All it did was repeat itself some ten times, and some of the questions were incredibly confusing and it asked for 3 sources for each reason I gave and we only had 6 sources to use (none of which were really about my reasons, I would have preferred if the teacher put forth more sources that weren't political cartoons or just tell us that
After having a pretty bad week (Being sick since Tuesday, laying in bed without the energy to do much else), it feels good to talk to someone amazing, even if it's just online.
So I had some money and happened to be at Borders earlier, and so I bought a few books;
- "Moron's" Guide to Psychology
I'm interested in psychology and plan to take it as a class next year, so I figured that using a book that explained aspects of psychology in simple terms would be useful, and helpful for background knowledge. I read the first page or so, and so far, it's not dull and it's pretty interesting in my opinion -- this will hopefully give me a bit of an edge when designing, an
It's not serious, and I am well aware that I am a terrible poet. However, I found it entertaining to read it all melodramatically as fast as I could, and figured to put it somewhere. I learned that, it's hard to find a rhyming word for "rabbit." I also learned that it is incredibly hard to find something that rhymes with "says" without pronouncing the word with a long "a."
I don't know if changing the rhyme pattern near the end was a good idea or not.

So I ordered Reach on Monday, click on the free shipping and am told it'll arrive on the 20th.
But I guess Amazon/UPS likes me 'cuz it got here todaaay~
Three day weekends are pretty pleasant, especially when you have a bunch of schoolwork/things to get done over the weekend. So far, I have to start working out the plans for an article for the school newspaper (reviewing the movie Inception -- need to also locate another person to give their own opinion and such), then I also have this "journal" entry thing for English, though I think the events at PT on Tuesday will more than fill up the needed space -- that day was probably one of the few days
