Yes I am now clinically dead. I just finished rounding up some homework stuff. 5 Freakin' pages, took me 3 freakin' hours. My eyes are dehydrated, completely dehydrated. And I feel like I'm about to fall apart. But that will not stop me from blowing the frustration away in Counterstrike. Shotgun here I come Hey that rhymes. Fear me... -|IXI

Some friends of ours visited today from Missouri. They were passing by on their way home from... Texas, I think. We had lunch with them, (sub sandwiches) and then just messed around the house. We have this empty lot that we own next to our house... we don't live in a modern suburban area. It's filled with trees, and we have this disc swing tied to a tree, which we swung around on. I filmed my dad pushing my little sister on the swing at a wide angle, and when he pushed her she swung out of the shot, and since on the film you can't exsactly see the rope, it looked like my dad threw her... it was hilarious! Don't worry, it just looked that way. Later, we searched for a place to play softball. It took a while to find one, but we found this "abandoned-looking" one, where we played for a while. After all that, we went to McDonald's for supper, and played Mad Gab while we ate. That was a lot of fun! After we ate, we played freeze-tag in the parking lot (it was vacant). We probably looked ridiculous, but it was fun. I'm all wobbaly now from all the runnng I did today. -------------------- I just saw Smeagol4's review. Great job, that was entertaining! "Why don't you go prank -Kex- or something." ... funny!

Like yesterday, this friday was a day of contrasts. And it's quite a coincidence that you are now reading my 13th entry on a Friday. Heh... Anyway. In the extremely dark we have math... Don't ask, I mean it. And in the white corner we have english, which I finished in ten minutes, no freakin' kiddin'. That just went like a MagLev running down a hill greased with oil, Bailey's and wet grass. I got home around 11 in the morning, happy to walk right into the weekend. And that's where the fun started. I just saw Running Scared, the movie with Paul Walker, and I gotta say that is was a very good movie. It was slick, visually stylish yet realistic, had some innovative camera angles and it was Paul's best performance to date. It falls in the category of mainly Quentin Tarantino if you had to compare to anything. But it is very unique, and tells a story unlike anything else. Yes it is somewhat brutal for those who only see Pixar Movies, and I think it comes a close second to South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut in terms of usage of the F-word. Not that it bothers me, but if I caught your interest. Better know what to expect. But if you like crime-movies, and you're looking for something new, this is it. So anything else? Lemme think... Ah yes, my room is getting a complete rehaul. Walls will be a very light orange, new black bed, new closet (something along light wood-ish) and I think I'm going to get a very large Halo 3 poster printed at the copyshop so I can pimp those otherwise slightly boring walls. Computer is getting a thorough upgrade as well. Right now I'm running a system with: P4 2.667 Ghz 512 DDR Ram Ati Radeon 9600 Pro 128 Mb Not much, I know. So I'm planning to install: AMD Athlon 3800+ Dual Core 1024 DDR2 Ram Nvidia GForce 7600 GT And a new motherboard to hold it all together. So all in all, good stuff is happening in the vacation. And just one more official week with, give or take, 2 days. After that... X3, on the upgraded comp. And I'll be writing drafts of stories in my upgraded room. So there you have it, today's rant. Bu-bye now. -|IXI

Oh my freakin' Exo... Normally I always pull myself through stuff like this, the testweek *nuclear explosion in background*. I just had Economics and History. Economics was about... err... I think I buried that somewhere deep in my mind. I'm blocking my memories. So it was probably very bad, though... I think I scored a few points. History however, was like the white against the Eco's black. That went as smooth as Bailey's running down a freshly waxed bikini line. We got two hours (by which I mean 2x 50 minutes), and I finished it under 45 minutes. It was about the Roaring Twenties, The Great Depression, Roosevelt's New Deal, Upcoming of Fascism in Italy and the Decolonization of India, Indonesia and Africa. So yeah we Dutch do learn a great deal about American history... Which I think leads to my upcoming rant, yes it's really starting now. Why do we, that is the students of the Dutch High Schools, learn so much about other countries (Germany, France, America) while they don't seem to know... a heap of a very smelly brown substance, about ours? Most Americans I met, that is in Counterstrike, websites etc., think we speak german, wear these wooden shoes and smoke grass everyday. (I said most, so don't go feel offended if you are American. There are probably a few hundred who are alright. Okay j/k, seriously. Don't go throw nukes on me.) Anyway, I think that if we all had the system that we had everyone would know a lot more about eachother in terms of culture, history, customs etc. On the other end, you would have a whole lot of stuff to do. But I think that's worth it. Would make the world a better place, wouldn't it. It would certainly vanquish the image of fat, lazy, fast-food-eating, acting-before-thinking, extremely conservative, bla-bla-bla more mumbojumbo and so forth and so forth and so forth *gasp!*... ... Americans. Well, that about ends it. End of Part 1, Act 1, Scene 1, Line 1, Word ... err lost count. Whatever. End -|IXI

Tuesday the 20th of June. I puke my guts out. Yes the day before the behated testweek I feel as sick as a tree plagued by fungi. Typical. I don't know what caused it either, I haven't eaten anything risky. Just my usual bread-breakfast with tea, more bread on school and some Icetea. What I do know is that I have this horrible mixture of acid fumes in my nose and that my mouth tastes like a radioactive wasteland. On top of that, I have a dozen or so things I need to round up for school which I will hopefully start on today. *sigh* Bleh -|IXI

It's monday, and quite some time since I posted an entry here. I should be happy, as school's end (the end! Muah!) is nearing, but you guessed it. I am not. Reasons: Before it all ends we have one more testweek, heh funny. Just as I typed this I hear 'Die Mother... Die' screaming through my headphones, which kinda illustrates how I feel right now. After the above we have this thing called a 'sportdag'. Which is roughly translated a sportday. And you know what we're going to do? Softball! *sets the song in repeat*. Another reason is that I might fail this year, might. So there is a chance. That is thanks to this slight lack of motivation. Which is not entirely my fault. When I asked my mathteacher what I needed math for, he said and I'm serious: "Nothing." Thanks! Let's see, another thing which has a suckfactor of 52498536? Ah yes, my bike is breaking down piece by piece, day by day. I seem to be unable to find a job (expects lack of money). I get tired everyday, perhaps I'm ill or something, but I'm not drawing any conclusions. School in general. Err... man I sound like this whining twelve year old. Change of mentality IXI! Somebody kick me. This was today's random blog... -|IXI

But my mind is restless. These days I am finding it harder and harder to fall asleep. This is summer! It should be easy to sleep! It isn't, not recently at least. Just as I'm drifting off to sleep, my mind starts running about how I can make this and how I can do this. That's what I get for being an artist, I guess. Another thing that's adding to it, I guess, is that i just finished 2 weeks worth of game design classes. It taught how to use this software called Multimedia Fusion. The teacher was really cool. He teaches at a local middleschool, which of course means theat i've never seen him before... He was honestly the first adult I've ever met in person who played videogames frequently. But getting back on topic... If you're reading this and you have sleeping problems, how do you deal??? I need some advice. ~Giganuva Upsilon

I just got back from helping set up our church's VBS. It's nowhere near finished, since we just started. The theme is Around The World, and my sister and I need to draw a map of Africa and the Philippines. We also need to draw a windmill mural (on large paper) for the Netherlands. And I just got a bunch of masks I ordered in the mail! There's 19 in total, one of them being a CMoV! Also, I've just always wondered this, do you think the Mcdonald's version Kopeke has a sand-blue mask, or light a blue mask?

Well their not "twins," but I needed a word that meant two in some way. (without saying two.) Anyway, yesterday I had the whole day free, so I basicly just MoCed all day. I made these two awsome beings that I must say, I think are my best MoC's to date. But I think I'm going to save them for the next BBC contest, if it fits into the catagory. If not I might post them. Well, I don't have anything else to say, so...

I just got the comic I ordered in the mail! It was the Mcdonalds promo comic "Callenge of the Rahi!" And I also got a bonus comic #19 that the seller never mentioned, and they're both in mint never-been-read condition! You can still buy one from here. (Free shipping!)

Today I had to go help my Grandpa and members of our church move in my aunt and uncle's stuff into their new house. They just moved from Arizona. The work was quickly finished, and after that I had to babysit my cousins. Their around the 3 and 4 year old range. That was kind of tiring since they're so active. Last I saw them they couldn't even talk, now they don't stop! Well I'm finaly home and got a special surprise in the mail. It's a TNGM I ordered from eBay! I'm so excited! It's a nice feeling unexpectedly obtaining a rare mask in the mail! Well, that's about it for now. My legs feel like Jell-O, so I'm going to find something to eat before I get too tired to move.

Dangit... Having one of those sudden feelings of sadness now and I don't know how to get over it... Happy thoughts don't work because, well, they end up in a lot of bloodshed. And it's certainly not good to listen to sad music right now... Hmm... maybe it's time to write off some issues I'm having... (Warning: This isn't going to be very easy to read...) I was bullied for a long time and it messed me up good. Got traumatized to such an extent that I even dropped out of college because I couldn't handle the stress. The bullying wasn't only at school, but also on the streets and at my father's house. (My parents are divorced.) I also had a stepsister who had a crush on me, which made everything even more confusing. In school, none of the teachers did anything against the bullies, despite me running indoors crying a lot of times in those 6 years. The bullying at my father's home was around the same time I was bullied in school. Everything started to pile up on me and I actually got therapy for it. The therapy worked for only a year or 2 when I was in high school. When I was in high school, I didn't get bullied. Until the latter part of the third year. Some guys thought it was funny to squeeze the air out of my lungs by pressing me and my chair against my desk. I got so ticked off at one time that I almost hit someone in the head. It's because my arm was a bit too short, or I might have killed him with one hard and precise blow to the head. After that, I got a real breakdown that went on even after the summer vacation. Sure, I got into another class, but that didn't quell my fear of being bullied again. That was around the year 2002-2003. In the next schoolyear, 2003-2004, I started to feel serious amounts of stress and it got so bad that I wanted to put an end to it (my life) in the 2004 summer vacation. It was also the time I got introduced into the Asian music by IXI through a pic of Lee Hyori. I listened to her music and the music of Fin.K.L. I liked the music, but I still felt depressed and devastated. And I went on a downloading spree of depressing music. And that's when I found my first BoA song. It was called Don't Give a ['Darn'] and for the first in a long period, I felt happy again; those suicidal feelings were gone. I even got so far to be accepted in college. Flash forward to 2005: I was doing pretty well in college and then it went wrong. All the stress and negative feelings came back and I stopped going to college. Dropped out eventually. So I went to look for help as soon as possible. And now I have the help and I'm finally getting back on track. I hope, because I'm out of money right now... Can't even go to the rehabilitation sessions this week. But I'll manage to solve that... The near future: Chances are that I'll be going back to college next schoolyear. Everything shall turn out good. Something else: I decided to sent that message to BoA anyways. All I need now is a reaction, but I doubt I'll get one. EDIT: Just updated my Personal Photo.

-----I just can't seem to get that song out of my head these days. I'll admit, the first time i had heard of Panic, I was watching MTV2. Their music video came up, and I was all, "Great. Just what we need. Another gothic rock band." So i just go on with my daily life. -----Then, a couple weeks later, i go to the store to look for a videogame, and my younger brother is with me. Now remember, I'm seventeen, and he's fourteen. So he goes into the CD section of Target. I walk out with nothing (blast the speedy consumers!) and he walks out with a CD with the weirdest looking album cover. I ask him, "who did you get this time?" He says, "Panic! at the Disco." I'm like, "that sounds vaguely familiar." I ask him if i would know any of their songs. He starts singing the refrain from the above-mentioned song. I'm all, "OHHHH! that one, ok." ----So we get home, he pops it in my radio, because his is broken (i tend to lean toward the sledgehammer theory). I'm listening, and lo and behold, I find myself really getting into this!!! ----These days, I can't go an hour without beginning to hum a Panic song in my head. I have researched them on wikipedia, too. It seems that Fall Out Boy (yes, the same ones who toured with Nintendo) helped them get their start. Panic contacted them through their ######## page. In direct relation, in one of Fall Out Boy's music videos, A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More Touch Me, they actually had one of Panic's members as a guest-star. I guess all this stuff shows that you can NEVER judge a band by their music video. Fine, book by their cover, blah blah blah... _________________________________________________________________________________________ ----In other news, I'm still a little cheesed off that I didn't even get into the finals of the Skinz Contest. I mean, i worked from sun up that saturday 'till five that sunday. I put all my non-existant darkness into that (<-- explanation for that later). I don't know whose that was, but that bright yellow and silver ones really hurt my eyes. And I'm a guy who can star at a game of Super Smash Brothers Melee for twenty-four straight hours. Like I said, though, I'm glad that Air Master's Mata Nui won, though. We need at least one great being skin. ----Oh, and speaking of skins, binky, if you're reading this, when are ya gonna implement them??? _________________________________________________________________________________________ ----On a final note, please, if anyone likes what they see in my banners or avatars, feel free to PM me. I literally get more joy out of graphic art than i do videogames. Maybe that's why i have stuck with Bionicle so long. I'm a creator at heart. So, please if you need something done, just PM me. ~Giganuva Upsilon
