Well, I'm at camp on a friend's lappy. So far we've just done first day stuff like play smash bros and some bizarre version of tag and basketball in the dark. Met a nice girl, and made some friends. So I'll update later. Leet removed - -Mirage-

So I went to Dc over the weekend. We stayed at this really sweet hotel (free food! ). Anyway, for dinner we went to this restaurant which was pretty good. But during the middle of the meal, one of the waitresses fainted and hit her head on the floor. An ambulance soon came and they loaded her up, but she was still unconscious with a steady pulse when it departed. So the next day we go to the Air and Space Museum and an art gallery. It's hot, so we stop at Ben & Jerry's to get some ice cream. My dad starts a conversation with the person behind the counter and it turns out that somebody came in a few minutes ago, ordered something so that she would turn her back, and reached down and stole her phone. {shakes head} So after that, we go and waste a few hours at the hotel, which gets us to dinner time. We walk by Dupont's Circle and see that there's a break dancing concert going on. Some guys had brought a video camera and a boom box and had started showing off their moves. They were awesome by definition, and we walk back to the hotel. This morning I'm awakened at 7:30 by an annoying voice coming from the speaker above by bed repeating "Warning! Fire! Exit your rooms and find the nearest exit! Warning!" As you could guess, it wasn't the most peaceful start to the day. XO So eventually we made our way home. AREN'T YOU FASCINATED BY MY LIFE? HASN'T THIS TOUCHED YOU DEEPLY? AREN'T YOU AFFECTED BY THE TRIPS OF SOME GUY YOU'LL PROBABLY NEVER MEET? WHY DON'T YOU PEOPLE LOVE ME? LOVE ME!

Well, I'm leaving for camp in the morning, and packing tonight. So, goodbye, everybloody!

Well, next week I've got camp. I've heard tell that there ARE internet-enabled computers there, and I'll try to sneak my flash drive through airport security. So I shouldn't be totally cut off from you guys. But I doubt if I'll be on any messengers or other programs, unless the computers there have ridiculously low security. Maybe I'll blog from there. idk.

So today was a bad day a horrible, horrible, disaster of a day. Yes, it is storytime. Gathered friends listen again to our legend of the Bionicle... Wait... wrong story. Anyway, there is an associate who works at the Wal-mart I do, and she and I don't get along. At all. And the event started when I was helping a customer. I was explaining the prepaid cell phones to this customer, who was asking me questions. And she asked for the Connection Center keys, but it was the way she asked for them. She asked for, "her" keys. Keys which she didn't actually sign out, keys which I did sign out. Then there was the rudeness in her tone of voice. And that did get to me quite a bit. I didn't respond how I wanted too, but even after she was really rude. The thing is she did it in front of a member management. Which helps me a bit, cause he knows I didn't start anything. There is also the fact that I have made complaints about how she acts towards me a few weeks prior. Anyway, we both got talked to about it, during which, I even asked, "If you have a problem with me please tell me an I'll try to fix it." To which she replied, "...I go out of my way to stay away from you..." That was the part that stuck out the most, well at least she was honest, the problem is still I don't know why she hates me. Management also knows that I don't like her because she is so rude. I was wrong in how I acted in a small part of what happened, and it was really hard to keep from exploding. Of course I know what I did wrong and we did discuss that, of course he knows that I wasn't in the best situation. Here is the thing that gets me though... I get along with every other associate in the store... of course if she is rude or tries to start something again, I will finish with my customer(if I'm with one) and talk to management right away. Anyway this entry was more just to get this out of my system. I'm in a good mood now.

WHOOOOOOOO! And their new album is out, too. *cheers!* Now if I can just find a way to be there, but my parents not be there...

I finally got a flash drive! So now, when I go places that Dad won't let me take my computer, I can sneak the drive through security and spread my evil across more computers In unrelated news, I got a Guitar Hero controller to play Frets on Fire with! *cheers*

Like, For Real, Man. Do You Know How To Work Mcafee?
Boogie Monsta posted a blog entry in blogs_blog_1018
I'm getting REALLY desperate now. For those who didn't read the other McAfee is keeping my LimeWire from connecting, and I need it. And I can't figure out how to make it stop. Does anybody here? -
I know there are people here with this knowledge. Please don't look and leave if you know what to do. So, my dad recently upgraded my computer to McAfee virus-blocker-and-whatever-else. But now, whenever I try to use LimeWire, it can't connect. Do you know a way to make it let it connect? Or just how to exit McAfee for a bit so I can download something? I'm getting desperate. And I don't want to hear about how you think LimeWire's illegal or something, I just want to know how to fix it.

*is annoyed* First, the guilt part of the entry. No, I do not actually feel guilty, nor am I guilty of anything. Anyways, my sister is in the Junior Civic Theater this year, and the play they're putting on is High School Musical. (Side Note: I've seen how badly stuff goes when HSM is mentioned here on BZP. Any outright flaming of HSM in a comment is gonna get deleted. Putting this out here right now) And they only have, like, five guys in the whole thing. Three of them are backup guys. So there is a distinct lack of males and people in the play, to the point of it potentially getting cancelled. My mom and sister already tried to get me to agree to go to tryouts. I refused, despite all....*counts* 23(No kidding, around that many times) instances of them bringing it up. Now, they want me to go and try and help "save" the play. I said no. Now, my uncle is the director. So Mom's trying to guilt me into it by telling me how much he's done for me, and asking how I can say no after said things. Simple answer. I. HATE. BEING. IN. FRONT. OF. LARGE. GROUPS. OF. PEOPLE. ESPECIALLY. WHEN. I. AM. NOT. GOOD. AT. WHATEVER. IT. IS. I'M. DOING. ON. STAGE. (another side note, it is fun talking like Jan-I mean, Technodrome) On to the treasure! My sis found one of these babies. A 1904 Indian-Head Penny.

*guzzles Gatorade* Once there, the Spartans replentished their electrolytes. Gatorade. Is it in you? (Kudos to whoever gets that reference) It's hot here. It's been upwards of 100 degrees for a week or more! I've got sunburn on my shoulders and upper back of epic proportions. I can't even take a shower comfortably anymore. The strange thing is, though, that there's a perfect X of un-burned skin on one shoulder. I guess that was where I was dangling the water bottle when I went to the water park. You know how hot that pavement gets when you're barefoot in 102 degree weather? I guess I need a point to this entry... You guys got any interesting sunburn stories? And seriously. If you get the quote, say it.

Ok! So I was bored and decided to write a blog entry! It took over 100 Board messages to get here... Um... I got a Facebook! You could possibly add me if you want. Just tell me your name and I'll add ya. So... I'm eating popcorn and watching a TV special on Water Parks. They've got some pretty unique rides on here. But I've still never seen anything as unique as something at King's Dominion, called the Tornado. They put you in a 4-person tube (not the big circular type, but 4 normal inner tubes stuck together in the center. It's kind of strange. And really hard to carry up steps... IRRELEVANT! Anyway. You go down a run-of-the-mill giant cylindrical water ride, nothing impressive at the beginning. But then you go down a probably-more-than-60-degree drop, and are spit out of the tube into a... GIANT FUNNEL! You're spit out on one side, and you go up the other one, almost to a 90 degree angle. Once you peak, you go back down, and continue until you make it through the mouth of the funnel. It's awesome! In closing: It's a relocation sale! Fifty percent off all badly beaten Homestars! - Bubs

2008 is already half over. =O

Some of the people who I've talked to know I've been getting a lot of rain in my area, and I mean that. So much so that a few states are in states of emergency. The area I'm in is safe right now. However, my county is one of those in the State of Emergency. That doesn't mean that I haven't seen any flooding, I have seen my share of flooding. Some spots usually hold a lot of water when it rains, and right now they look like really small lakes. The bad news is these are the fields of the farmers. Heck the weather has been so bad that the other day when I was off my Wal-Mart had a Code Black, which is a severe weather code. All customers and associates go to the safest area of the store. Odds are if you turn on the news you'll hear something about the flooding as it is a large story. Link to the article I got the quote from. It was the first one I found in my search and as they all said the same thing, I'm just using the one I found first.

If you make it through this entry with your sanity, you will get a nice cake. Today was the last day of school for my junior year. I hardly survived. In fact, I'm really not sure if I did or not. I mean, one of my teachers pulled the "You're one of the smartest people I've ever known, why did you get *Mumble* as your grade?" "Because I'm extremely lazy, Mr. Hancock... Much like you." "A bit too much like me. Oh, have a nice summer!" type things. Well, at least it's over. Ahh, good times, good times. In other news, a friend of mine let me borrow The Legend of Zelda Collector's edition or whatever it's called as well as Twilight Princess. I absolutely adore the style for Twilight Princess. I hope they keep it for the next game they make, although I highly doubt it. It's got to be the first reasonably Zelda game in which the civilians don't look as though they came out of a small child's coloring book. And not the ones with the lines already drawn. Just a blank booklet with so on etc. The cake is a lie. So hopefully I'll be able to actually get on the computer once in a while this time around. Except, I will be gone for several days working at some place down south a bit. And there will probably not be any internet connection there. And now that summer is here, I hope that, in between the time that I spend dieing of heat strokes, I'll regain my drawing inspiration at some time or another. Yeah, that's pretty much it. *Platform turns a strangely dark corner* *Starts humming "Still Alive"*

I just saw 90-some geese come out of a small clump of trees, go parading around my grandma's neighborhood, and block traffic much to the annoyence of several truck drivers. This was fifteen minutes nonstop goose marching, and they left quite a mess. There are currently about thirty five clogging the driveway of one of my Grandma's neighbors. XD So yeah.

I really haven't been on much the past few days due to the fact that I was working crazy shifts. However, I have the next three days off so you can expect to see me those three days. Of course I do have some bad news, an associate who works in my department has pneumonia, he left before I got in yesterday. They thought it was a heart attack, but it wasn't. He'll be at the hospital for a few days, but even so I'm still worried. I do hope he will be ok.

On Saturday night, I went to a party at my friend's church. At first it just seemed like blow-up bouncy things, not much out of the ordinary. Then they announced that the 'bash' had begun. Which basically means you get a lot of kids, 2 sledgehammers, a junk car, and 3 hours. Me and my friend ended up collecting parts. I got the license tag, trunk lock, Rear view mirror, and both wipers, among others. We even found a bag in the trunk we carried it all in XD. All in all, it was awesome. And as soon as I figure out how to get pictures out of my cell phone, I'll post what happened to the car.

Well, I need to find some form of song to sing for the final in my choir class... Can anyone think of a song that is anywhere around the range of a Baritone-base? Because I can't. And I need to sing it on Monday... o_o *Runs around in circles while searching CDs for anything useful* Oh, I don't think I've put this here yet... Well, it's just a painting of a Maori Mask done for my graphic design class a while back. For any of you wondering why I put this on a Bionicle web site, I'll slap you silleh. I would make a topic of this, but I know it wouldn't get any posts. And because it isn’t actually finished…

Yesterday I got some of the cutest shoes ever. Of course they made me buy two pairs. But I know you're all jealous of the cutest shoes ever! I wish, I wish, I wish.

Recently I got a ton of awesome stuff. Not only from ACen but from some rummage sales. I'll start with the long overdue ACen stuff. First some awesome Zelda related drawings. And a Zelda comic. Zant. Mario and Yoshi. Coin Block, which when hit makes the coin sound. Sword Kirby! PINS! Reboot, Umbrella Corperation, Link, Toshiro, Death Note, Geno, And two The World Ends With You pins (Player Pin and O-Pin). Companion Cube... in an envelope.... more than meets the eye... Companion Cube lives again! There are a few other things in here but they have another story. Now then also from some rummage sales I got a Toa Hahli Mahri (minus wings) and another set which became system MOC parts. I also got an almost complete collection of the first 67 issues of Nintendo Power. Plus some guides and other ancient NP stuff, I'll have a picture up in a few days. I got the collection for the low price of $20. Please note, I've had this drafted for awhile, but I figured now was a good time to post it. Kohaku

Well, I went out on the road again this morning. And I had my first encounter with not one, but TWO rude/inconsiderate drivers! First, we head to Wal-Mart. Nothing out of the ordinary happens. It's when we head back that the fun begins. So, I'm coming to a T-intersection, on High Road and Mall St. When you are turning onto High from Mall St., it is very hard to see oncoming traffic from the right, due to some incredibly high grass. So I'm slowly inching my way up to see better without driving straight onto High and getting hit, with this blue car behind me. A couple cars go by on High. Then, as I'm about to go, they honk at me because I'm wasting ten seconds of their precious time trying to be safe. After I had turned, I realized that I ought to have stayed just a little longer. For, you know, "Safety's sake." So then I'm heading down High, and I have to slow down at the park, from 30 mph to 20 mph. This time, a black car has pulled up behind me, and they decide that they don't want to wait for me while I obey the speed limit. So they pass me in a no-passing zone. So what have we learned today children? In Teebert's hometown, driving laws are optional, as long as you don't get caught. Anyways, I'm leaving in a bit with my mom to drop my sister off at the local volunterr animal rescue group, located at the mall, and I'm going to drop by the bookstore while I'm there. Haven't been there for two weeks. *gasp* So I plan on looking to see if Swamp of Secrets is in. *crosses fingers* Then after that, it'll be lunch, then out to the garden for likely the rest of the afternoon. Ta-ta.

Sounds like a bad cartoon, but no! Scientists have found that monkeys are able to control a robotic arm using only brainpower to pick marshmallows of the ground and feed themselves. This might give hope to mentally controlled human prosthetic limbs, a major breakthrough in science. Bbc story.

Got my internet back.

Well, I've had a fun day. Mom gets me up at six-thirty. Driving practice, go to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things. Get back, take the dogs for a walk. Get back from that, eat, feed the dogs, shower. Then we go to Home Depot and the grocery store. Then we get back and unpack, then I cart away some mulch we got at Home Depot. Then I work in the garden for about an hour. Twelve-thirty. We go to the cemetary and put flags at the graves of my grandfather who served in Korea, in a MASH unit, and also at the grave of my I-forget-how-many-greats grandfather who fought on the Union side in the Civil War. One. We go to Grandma's for Memorial Day lunch. Then, my aunt, uncle, dad, other uncle, two cousins, sister and I form two Wiffleball teams and play a game. My side won, 20-15. Three-fifty. We get back home. I feed the dogs, then head online for awhile. Dad heads into work to get stuff ready for tomorrow. He takes awhile, so we decide to go ahead and eat. Then he gets home, talks for a bit, then we play Life. Seven-thirty. I put the ducks to bed, then head online again and post this blog entry. ......so how was your day?
