Wow, it HAS been a while since I've been here >.<.
Anyways, this Holiday season has been going very well for me. I've gotten some extra hours at work, which is definately a good thing seeing as my savings account went from $350 (approx) to $11 in like two and a half weeks. Luckily, my (for reasons unknown) small check that I got on Wednesday revived it to $122. Now I just need to build it up .
What'd I get for Christmas you ask? I'm getting to it, h
Well today was not only the two week anniversary for my hand getting all gashed up, but it was the first of three days that my church is doing their annual summer outreach called Summer Soaker. It's for 1st-5th graders and anyone older than that helps out. My two sisters attended this and I was able to help lead one of the games.
It was a blast having fun with all of the kids. I was fortunate enough to not get my hand wet so that's a good thing. Over all, my hand's looking better. Ther
I forgot two things that I didn't put in the last entry:
1) I passed my road test and got my license last Wednesday.
2) I got BIONICLE Heroes the Friday after it came out and had 100% Game Completion within 6 days of owning it (I also got it for Nintendo DS which I also managed to beat 100.0% in 6 days). By the time I was done, my brain was fried. I mean brown, crispy, hot, crunchy, fast food, fried XD .
I guess that's it.
I highly recommend seeing Spiderman 3. It was by far the best one yet.
Spiderman 3 could fall under several genres in my opinion. It was dramatic, tragic, humorous, and action packed. For anyone who hasn't seen Spiderman and/or Spiderman 2, you should see those ones beforehand (though it's not essential, it would help a lot). If you are one of those people, you should see Spiderman 2.1 instead of just plain, old Spiderman 2, if you have the option that is.
I won't give out spoilers bec
Today is the start of a very long weekend. Seeing as it's Wednesday, I'm sure you can see why I called it long . I'm going to do school and then go to church to help set up for our Halloween party (I'll take pics) and dress up as a Ring Wraith. I'll be there until after 11 PM most likely cleaning up and tearing things down.
Tomorrow, I have school and after that I have chores. Work is it 4:45 PM until about 11 PM, so if I can find time to get on BZP between the chores and work part, I
Well, I didn't get done with school until 3 today like most people, but I usually get done at around noon. The reason it took me so long is because I've had to double up on my school work this week (squeeze two days of school into one).
I've done this because I've got to take the MEAP (Michigan Educational Assessment Program) Test next week at my local High School and it's gonna take me 3 days. I've got work on top of that too, and if I had to throw some school into next week too, I'd hav
Well the night of June 4th was amazingly awesome. Myself and 7 other Homeschooled graduates all pitched in to give ourselves a night of fun. After spending 5 hours scraping paint and priming walls in my Aunt and Uncle's basement, I met up with the others at one of their homes. We started by driving in a limo (it was a Mercedes ) for about nearly 2 hours, where we proceeded to jam out to Relient K and talk about college, and life in general.
After the limo ride, we arrived at the "Detroi
Wow... all I can say is wow.
I went into that movie with high expectations and they were exceeded. By far the best movie of 2008 without a second thought. If you read TMD's blog, he probably put it into the best words with his essay, but in my own words, it was simply amazing, and I have to see it again before this week is up. Then I may quite possibly see it 1-2 more times prior to it's DVD/Blu-Ray release.
Ugh, I just realized that the rest of June is hectic as ever. I should have a pretty laid back month in July, but until then I've got a lot of things to get to.
June 12: Metal Gear Solid 4 comes out. Though I won't have a PS3 for just under another two weeks, I had the Special Edition of this game reserved, and I wanna make sure that I pick it up. Also, I'll be going to see The Incredible Hulk at the end of the 12th/beginning of the 13th. June 14: My 18th Birthday where I will be attending 4
Well it's been a little while since I made a new entry, so here's what's new:
Last Tuesday, I went to Pennsylvania for Creation Festival 2008, which was awesome. There were over 100,000 people there as well as a handful of great bands and speakers.
My sister was able to get her Flyleaf CD signed by Flyleaf at Creation which was pretty cool. Myself? I got Skillet's Comatose CD signed, Jon Foreman's (Switchfoot's main singer) Seasonal EPs signed by him as well as a Switchfoot poster signe
Well it wasn't so bad. I felt light-headed for a while and my arm hurts. I swear, that needle is like 1/16th of an inch thick! How they stab that into your arm, I'll never know...
Well over this last weekend, I made quite a bit of money. On Saturday night, I made $65 for just busing at Joe's. I spent some on gas and food. I deposited the rest into my savings. On Sunday night (which is usually a very slow night), the hostess called off, so I had to bus and host. Because of that, the servers/waiters/waitresses had to tip me out twice as much and I made another $65. I put some more money down on God of War: Chains of Olympus because the demo was enough to make me say,
I don't know if I beat Omi to it or not, but I got Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions for PSP today (and reserved Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings), but sadly won't be able to play it until after 10 PM due to me having to cook dinner and go to church, but oh well, delayed gratification pays off.
EDIT:
I guess Omi beat me
Last week, my Uncle and Aunt invited me to go with them and my two younger cousins tomorrow to Sandusky, Ohio just for a weekend get away. So I won't be available from tomorrow afternoon from around 5:00 PM EST until Sunday night. So if you PM me, I will not be available.
Random Fact of the Day:
The average person spends 1 year in the bathroom throughout they're entire life.
A while ago (nearly 2 years ago) my mom was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. She's had flareups here and there. Many times she's just in constant pain, and regardless of that, she's been strong and continued on with life.
Today, she went to the Rheumatoligist to see if she could switch to a less intense medication than the one she's currently on. She had tests taken today and now it turns out that she has the beginnings of fibromyalgia, and ostioporosis. Obviously it's not me being
Well, I've been gone for a while. I did in fact get back on the 3rd and guess what I did after I got back? I slept and slept and slept until 8 AM on the 4th.
Then I had to go to work at noon which was good, my wallet and savings account needed to refill (well, my wallet did anyways, my savings account just needed another fix).
After work, I just wanted to sleep some more, but no, something came up: We were going up north for a day to visit my oldest friend who I've known since I was 3
I just got Skillet's new Comatose Comes Alive CD. Haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but those live tracks are amazing (the violins in Collide were done masterfully). Anyways, just had to brag that I got something new. Now I need to get the Incredible Hulk soon.
OK, well I went with TMD's ever-so-wise advice and said yes. My grandmother gave me her credit card and had me charge it on Target.com. In a nutshell, I'll be getting the yellow Jetrax T6 hopefully by Wednesday.
Well, I'm getting pretty hyped up right now because Survivor Camp is coming up . It's the annual camp that my youth group does, but this year, it's different. Survivor Camp used to be only for the Junior High, meaning I haven't been to it in two years, but now they extended it to the Sr. High age group and I am just estatic. It'll be from July 30th - August 3rd. There are so many fun things to do there.
The games are awesome. When we all get there, they divide us up into 4 teams with t
Just needed to say Happy Valentines to all who have on , and to those who just enjoy this particular day of the year.
Random Fact Of The Day:
Love is not an emotion, but rather an act of the will. The temporary emotions just make love easier to decide on in the beginning.
Well, as some of you may have noticed, I haven't been all that active for almost 3 weeks.
All I can say is that life has been hectic and my days have been filled up completely.
But after having a Lord of the Rings marathon (all 3 Extended Versions in a row) and getting all 6 Barraki along with Nocturn, I'm recharged and ready to come back.
I thought about taking January away from BZP just to take a longer breather, but I knew I just couldn't do it.
So I'll be posting some new entri
I saw The Incredible Hulk yesterday night/this morning. I must say, it definately made up for the first one being so terrible, though the most intense parts didn't take place until the end fight. I'm pretty sure the end fight was what they were spening most of the movie's budget on.
I'll tell you right now, there's nothing after the credits, so dont' waste your time waiting. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «However, right when you think the movie is going to end (just b
So... Turakii and I have been going out for 10 weeks now =D
I am now in the committee (only 6 people in it) of the new ISCET (International Society of Certified Electronics Technicians) Student Chapter that started at the ITT Tech campus that I go to. Because of this, I can take 4 tests required for ISCET Certification at a discounted price and I get access to lots of online study material for free . Hopefully by March, I should be a full-fledged Certified Electronics Technician.
I'm st
Well as of right now, I've completed the first part of a very long and exensive project I've just started working on. Last year, we were given a picture of the Matoran Universe in a map form:
And then just before that, we had seen Mata Nui himself:
Obviously, the Matoran Universe doesn't seem to be built to the scale of Mata Nui's body. But I realized that I had the ability to change the way I look at that map. So over the next few months, I'm going to be drawing individual part
*coughs from dust that accumulated on blog*
Well as usual I've been pretty busy. I've been lurking on BZP, checking on OGD, the blogs, and keeping the serials topic updated.
Work's been going great. I'm averaging about $50 cash each night I work + my hourly wage. Even still though, I've been spending a lot lately, but mostly out of necessity. Last week, I had to spend $200 on my car. It needed an oil change; the windshield wipers had to be replaced; the transmission fluid had to be
