It's the last day of school right? So today we played Guitar Hero II and DDR. But the best things was Karaoke Revolution (tsk tsk...). I scored 28,000 out of 30,000 on Material Girl by Madonna. Scary, eh?
So I had a swim meet Saturday. It was at my home swimming pool... and you know, we have really small lanes and no starting blocks. But I ended up getting just half a second over my best time on 100 Breaststroke, only two tenths of a second over my best on 50 free, and A SECOND OFF on my 100 backstroke! (I hate backstroke.....) So I'm happy. And the kid I narrowly beat in every race had pecs like THIS BIG-- (stretches arms wide...). So he looked like a 14-year old clone of John Basedow. Scary. But I did good. So YEAH!
Now, on a lighter note, I ate 25 spoonfuls of peanut butter today. XD
Well guess what? It's Saturday, and I have nothing to do! So I tried learning to actually PLAY THE GUITAR... And the video that came witth it is so boring, I can't believe it! I guess I'll go eat or something...
Well, remember that guitar that I pretty much never got? Well, it finally came today after 6-8 weeks plus ohhh...... about 80. XD Well I finally got it, and it's not quite as cruddish as I had expected. Besides the fact that it has an image of Nuparu plastered onto it, it's pretty cool actually. It has extra string, a 10 foot cord, a treble-bass-rhythm pick-up switch, a tuner, volume controls (wow.......), and a strap. Yay. Pretty elementary, but I expected less. Oh yes. It comes with no amp. How stupid.
I just got accepted into the Math Science and Technology program at my choice school. Which is REALLY good. It's really hard to get into, and believe it or not it's one of the top high schools in the nation. So now I'm excited-- though Science Fair is required in this program, and the Science Fair is really rigorous. So that's the bad part. But still, I got in!
I just beat FFIII! The ending was awesome-- a lot more satisfying than that of FFIV--- And every last speck of the game was brilliant. The 3D rendering of the game was perfect, and I'm sure all the fans loved it. I hope they do more games like this, because I sold my soul to it.
Other News.....
I'm now a grandmama, hear? *sniff* My grandbaby was born at 6:30 this mornin'. He weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces, and *sniff* he's the cutest patootie you ever saw in your life. I'll post pictures later, you hear? *sniff*
So I'm back. I had Thanksgiving Dinner at my grandfather's retirement home, which was OH SO wonderful, as it was served all on a single plate, no seconds, and with plenty of collard greens. (eww...)
I kept talking about them, but my mom made me stop because she said it sounded like I was saying "colored" and our waitress was African American... long story.
So anywho, I missed you guys so muches! Oh, I missed you... hehehe.... XD Hey, I saw Happy Feet yesterday. Strange movie. REALLY strange. Judging by the poor performance of the video game, I predicted that it would be terrible. But it was AWESOME!!!!!! Maybe it was because of the ownager soundtrack. Or because it was funny... or because it was so serious it was funny. All I know is that I loved it...
I also got to see part of Borat. But on that subject, I will speak no more. If you have seen it, codename:
I'm playing FFIII, and I just got to level 60 with my dragoon/dark knight! (Right now, he's a job level 69 dragoon.) If that confuses you, you probably a) have never played Final Fantasy, and B) should be confused.
OTHE R N EWS.. ... ..
We just finished Frankenstein, and are now reading The Merchant of Venice in English Class! Yay Shakespeare! (Did you know that Shakespeare ripped every single one of his plots of of somebody else, and that people only liked him because he worded things well?)
In case you guys don't know, "Give Up The Funk" is a song by Parliament. (The Band, not the Legislature.) And Station WEFUNK is a fake radio station referred to in one of Parliament's songs, "P-Funk (Wants to Get Funked Up)".
I know, stupid way to start a blog entry on a Saturday. I'm almost done with the third level on Elite Beat Agents, after which I unlock Commander Kahn (YAY!) for multiplayer! So as soon as I get past the ridiculously hard final songs, I can do that. Yes....
So I have to apply for early review admission for high school by Wednesday. That's right, applying for high school. My school district is awesome that way. I'm trying to get into a really hard program, so wish me luck!
If you live in the U.S., today is election day. And that means you have to go out and vote! Under 18? Don't let legal age stop you. Because it is your duty as a citizen to vote on this day, whether or not you know anything whatsoever about the candidates! If you can't decide, pick the taller one!
You go do that, while I watch Indecision 2006 tonight.
So yesterday, had a swim meet. I took off 15 and 30 seconds on my 100 breaststroke and 100 backstroke, respectively. But that's because I rarely do them. And then, I took off a SECOND AND A HALF on my 50 freestyle! 29.89!
That was awesome. And guess what else! I found Elite Beat Agents (the best game ever by the way) at Costco for $26.95-- TWO DAYS BEFORE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO COME OUT! The people there must have been confused, but I didn't care, I bought it up! And I've already beaten it. If you like DDR, you'll LOVE EBA. It never gets old. The song selection is awesome, with Queen, Earth Wind and Fire (YAY NIDDY!), Rolling Stones, Chicago, The Village People (Y.M.C.A.), and whoever wrote Canned Heat (you know that song from Napoleon Dynamite where he's dancing). And the integration of songs into the game is seamless. Whether it be the awesome gameplay, the awesome moves, or the hilarious story that turns you on, you'll love it. So get it.... tomorrow. I forgot that the general public can't get it yet. But still- get it!
Also, I promised pictures. Here you go. Notice the EYES.
Once upon a time, there was a boy, who's hopes and dreams were set on becoming a member of Psycho Dogs and Carbonated Beverages. His hopes and dreams were shattered, though, when, well, he didn't become one.
The end.
Well, I suppose it's okay. I can still post comics and stuff... and that's al that matters.
