Yeah, I finally got round to it. Aaaaanyway, yesterday we went to the Tayto factory. Yeah. It was fun, and just because you all really want to know, I'll tell you about it. So, we got there and got hairnets and aprons. Hmmph. Then we went around the factory. First we went to a shed with about 400 tonnes of raw spuds in it. Wowser. Then we went upstairs, to a very noisy room with a lot of machines. We went to the end and there were the crisps, coming out of a machine that sorted them into good and bad. They didn't have any flavourings, but we got to eat some anyway. They were actually really nice. We got to try other just-out-of-the-oven crisps, and then we went into the next room. Here there were loads of machines, sorting and bagging the crisps. There were even those big arm robots used in car factories - Tayto had actually bought them from Vauxhall. That all took about an hour. Then we all got a free six-pack of crisps! Yee-haw! And then back into school...and double maths.

I have to go to bed. I'll tell you about it tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'm going to the Tayto factory! If you don't know Tayto, it's a big brand of crisps. Chips, you'd call them in America. Anyhoo, it's a Business Studies trip with school. I'll tell yas all about it tomorrow.

As most of you know, my Birthday is on Wednesday, but I got my present from my parents today. First off, you should know that on Monday, I have to go to Beulah (30 miles north) as soon as school's out and play pep-band for four different basketball games (districts), and then get home at about 10:30 that night. Although I enjoy playing pep-band, I am not excited about spending 7 hours with nothing but basketball games (which I don't really enjoy watching). When I complained to my dad yesterday, he simply said "Trust me". I had no idea what he meant, but then today, I got to open my present, and he got me what I wanted; a black 8 gig 3rd generation iPod Nano Video! I already have a 2 gig 1st generation Nano, but this one is so much better. He said that he had also ordered (which came today) software that I can use to get video off of DVDs and put them directly on my iPod without having to buy them off of iTunes. Hooray for Star Trek Voyager on iPods!

Ireland got beaten by France 26-21 in the Six Nations. And Wales beat Scotland 30-15, like anyone cares.

I've been playing Star Trek Armada and Star Trek Armada 2 a lot lately on my computer. I've had those games for a long time, and I love both of them a lot. Have any of you ever played either of those? I realize that they may be a couple of years old, but I'm an expert at both of them, so if you wanted help, or just wanted a bit of advice, feel free to ask. STA & STA2 FTW!

I have gym class and we're swimming and then math with a test and then lunch. Well my friend and I in both the gym and math class are going to do this tommorow. There's a lot of stuff in the ten to thirteen feet deep water, stuff we were supposed to swim and get and those were thrown too far, so tommorow we can stay in the pool and just dive for that stuff and get a pass to math and take the test later. It'll be great, I hate math and it'll be fun.

Very busy.

Yesterday I went on a little "shopping spree" to buy Autobot Ratchet and (hopefully) Tanma at Toys'R'Us. Well, they had no Transformers () but they did have Av-Matoran and a few Phantoka (Pohatu and Vamprah). Since my friend had Pohatu, a purchased Vamprah, and Solek . Cooool sets.

Nothing really happened today. I played a bit of rugby, and got stuck on Tom Morello in GH3. On expert. Anyway, Celeste has returned! An Ode to Mata-Nui can continue! And why had nobody entered the poetry contest? Probably because no-one reads this blog. Anyway, about five days to get your entries in. Can y'all do me a favour, and put a comment on this? I just want to see how many people read my blog. Call it a census.

Remember I mentioned the snow in my last entry? Well, it did lie. Just not at my house. We went up to our Grandparents' farm today. There was a bit of snow, apparently there was a lot in the neighbouring town of Belfast. Oh well.
-
Hi again, guys. Sorry there wasn't a blog entry yesterday. That was the downtime - from 9 til about 10:30 my internet and cable TV (both Virgin Media) just cut out. Bleh. I didn't have much to do yesterday. Anyway, a few things have happened recently. One of them is snow! I know that a lot of you members live in America, and are maybe used to it, but it's quite exciting for us. We only get snow maybe once a year. Near the end of Christmas we had quite a good bit - enough for a decent snowball fight, at least. It's been snowing on and off for a few days now, but it's never stayed on the ground. Oh well. It's supposed to snow tomorrow - hopefully it lies. Anyway, that's it for today. See yas tomorrow.

Currently doing a massive research paper on the entire history of BIONICLE for English class. It's challenging, but it's always fun to learn about the history of something you like. In other news, if any of you have Photok, can you let me know if it's worth getting or not? Same with Vamprah.

That person I said was gone has returned today. I was suprised at lunch when I heard that and found her after school. I have yet to speak to her after about ten months, I will tommorow. But I'm just happy.

Just a tip/reminder/let-you-knower on what's been going on with stuff. That just sounded EXTREMLY boring, right? Well: MOLD's been finished and released, which means the painstaking process of making a sequal. But the good thing is, I don't have to go through the process of finding actors because people are already vollunteering. I finally finished my Transformers collection. With LC Optimus Prime coming in the mail yesterday. The collection includes; 74' Camaro Bumblebee, Camaro Concept Bumblebee, Final Battle Jazz, Autobot Jazz, Ironhide, Rescue Ratchet, Starscream, Blackout, Megatron, Optimus Prime, Deluxe Brawl, Bonecrusher, & Barricade. I can't wait til February! It's my 12th birthday! YAY. We (my 6 friends and I) are going to this bowling/arcade/fun center to have pizza and such. Then we're coming back to my house to play SWB, and watch the Simpsons Movie on a makeshift big screen, AND have a sleep-over.Sounds wild eh?
-
And I'll try to get a couple of videos up for you nice people to watch and critique. Oh, and normally, we have 5 drummers sharing 2 sets, so we all have to take turns and I don't get to play very much , but tonight, it's only gonna be two of us drummers, so I can stay on the whole time.

Hi again, everybody! Yeah, so you might be thinking that by 'holiday' I meant the long period with no posts. Hmm. Well, it isn't! Though I didn't bother for a while, sorry. Anyway, we've booked our summer holidays! Here's a rough plan (nothing's certain yet): Fly from Ireland (Home) to England.Go to my cousin's wedding.Stay there for a night.Fly to Italy.Stay a week in a villa near Florence.Go to a different part of Italy.Stay a week in a boat, going along rivers, and through Venice.Come home.So, that should be fun! Oh yeah, and I'll be getting an Xbox 360 at some point. I've already made a GamerTag, it's Autermatic93. Be sure to send a message telling me who you are or I might not add you. Anyway, that's it for now. Cheers, and see you next time.

GarageBand FTW! Who knows what I'm talking about? Anyway, when I finish my song, I'll post it for you. Also, I'll try to have two vids of my pep-band night up soon too.

Well?

Not literally, but that (by a slightly different name) happens to be my favorite song to play for Pep-band. I asked my dad to record a video of me playing for it, and he did. It has been posted on Google Video, and I'm about to give you the link to it. First, however, I request that you read the following. First off, let me say that this was our first Pep-band performance since school started, so I was a little rusty. Also, the bumble-heads (not really, as I know they just didn't remember) who set up the drumsets forgot to put rugs underneath them, so when you hit the bass drum, it moved away from you. Right before the main fill of the song, I stopped playing to pull the bass drum back into position so I could execute the fill correctly. Unknown to me, my fellow drummer did the same thing at the same time, so the drum-line stopped completely for a second. It was kinda embarrassing, but nobody seemed to notice and I did the fill just fine. Anyway, to top things off, we needed a new bass pedal for the set that I was on, mostly because it's really stiff. If you watch me even for a second, you'll see me leaning into almost every beat so I could get the pedal to hit the drum. As this was the first performance since school started, I tried not to do anything too fancy and exciting, and our band was pretty bad too. If I'm able to record myself at the top of my game, I'll be sure to show you here. Oh, three more things... First, I'm dressed up because it was homecoming week and I had to escort someone, second, if you watch my fellow drummer, she's clueless as to how the song goes, and finally, you get to see my real face! (no gold Hau) We Didn't Start the Fire Feedback please.

It was awesome yesterday. It rained a little so it was a little muddy. Still fun. Few times where I almost tipped... Anyway, LRC needs more people. Four entries below. | | \/

I've taken an interest in Avatar: The Last Airbender lately. I had already seen a couple of the early episodes, but the storyline didn't really interest me (when I get into something, it's usually because of the storyline; hence why I like BIONICLE). However, over the past few weeks I've been watching Avatar on Friday nights (Saturday morning, actually) from midnight to 1 AM, and in seeing some of the Book 2 and Book 3 episodes, I realized that the story is actually a lot better than I had originally thought it would be. I then discovered TurboNick, and watched every Avatar episode that I hadn't seen yet, and I'm really looking forward to rest of the Book 3 episodes. Maybe another reason for my sudden interest in Avatar could be that I've always had a deep appreciation of ancient Chinese culture, but either way, it's a good show. Anyone else like it?
