-little cricket chirps-

Wow, it's been a while... Like so long, I had to log in. Yeah, Christmas and a bunch of family crap came up, but I guess it's not the holidays without SOMEONE having a breakdown. And we had several this year!

OK, two chunks of big news. First is that I got a great little camera for Christmas, so maybe I'll actually have some videos up on my YouTube channel soon. Next is a comic I'm working on... An Assassin's Creed joke. Seriously, have you seen the trailers for that game? It looks like awesome coated in awesome sauce with little awesome sprinkles.

Hopefully I'll actually have something interesting next time.

YTC: Demyx Time 12 (3/4)

So this is another one from JenxtheJinx, from Demyx Time 12. What? You've never heard of Demyx Time?! ... You fail at life. Anyway, it's short, bear with me.


Haha... Monsters Vs. Aliens, best movie ever!

Wow, I just noticed, when they all say "Yeah" about the auditions, Axel is totally into it. Such enthusiasm.

TWILIGHT! IS! NOT! LITERATURE!... (Go watch all of DT 12, you'll get it.)

I could just punch this Larxene in the face... She's just annoying.

Bravo Axel! And Saix's face? Priceless.

Woooow Roxas. Taking the whole "Voiced by Jesse McCartney" thing a bit too seriously!

At least Xion looked like she was actually reading the play... Or something. Look, I finished reading Romeo and Juliet like, last Friday, and I don't remember nothin' like what she read... Unless it was near the end, cause I got to goin' a bit faster toward the end cause Mr. Hallman was about to take up our books and I wanted to finish it... You can NOT just try to breeze through Shakespeare.

Poor Luxord. No one understands. *shakes head in dissappointment*

"I don't know you, and I don't care." Love this guy!

Xigbar's at it again! I always knew Pedobear was a Disney character...

"I like me." "I don't, you smell weird!" Win.


And one more note, congratulations to Shane Dawson, who just got 1,000,000 subscribers. Love ya, Shane!

Guy Drama vs. Girl Drama

Kind of a weird subject, but it's been bugging me for a while. Have you ever noticed the difference in genders when it comes to drama? Of course there's the typical teenager stuff like school, friends, family, that zit on your forehead... But down at the bottom, there's the more shallow stuff we worry about.

Most girls are like this...

• "I hate her for stealing my boyfriend!"
• "God, I feel so terrible this week 'cause I got my period!"
• "My brothers are so annoying, I hope they fall in a wood chipper!"
• "OMG, I weigh 100 pounds now! I'm so fat!"

And the sad thing is, I've actually heard stuff like that from a lot of chicks. Me, myself, on the other hand, haven't really said any of them, because A- no boyfriend, B- my period usually doesn't hurt that bad (and actually sometimes puts me in a good mood), C- ain't got brothers (that I live with anyway - they're soul brothers), and D - I weigh more than 100 and am perfectly fine with my body.

Now guys on the other hand...

• "Dang! Broke another guitar string... Last one, too."
• "Just lost this round of Gears... At this rate, I'll never be MLG material."
• "My girlfriend's pregnant!" (Haha, yeah, felt like goin' there... Can you tell I don't feel like total poopie anymore?)
• "Uhhgg, I have to take ALL my exams this semester!"

Ok, sure, that's not as deep as the chick problems, but I really don't like talking about problems a lot (though I have heard stuff along these lines. Maybe guys simply have less problems?) Seriously, though, my cousin will be talking about the stuff that's going on because she's got boy problems or the chicks from cheerleading are being all stuck up and your basic stereotypical cheerleader... And I'm kinda just thinking, "I'll be nice and listen to your problems so you can vent some, but please, SHUT UP and use your darn Star Power, because it bugs me when you never use it! Think of all the lost points! Oooh, 50 note streak..."

And me? Something like this is thought on a daily basis...

• "Whoa, I did NOT park that car straight!"
• "Uhhgg, stupid comic, why don't you look right!" *breaks out eraser*
• "No, don't die! Don't die! DON'T DIE! I SAID DON'T DIE, GOSH DARN IT! DON'T--! ... I died..."
• "Pacd vneaht un puovneaht sydaneym? Fru ghufc?

... Yeah, good luck figuring that out...

.... Yeah, my recent Facebook conversations have been like that. Why, you ask? Why not? We're just too big a nerds to realize how strange this is. Basically I was a White Mage, Barbara a Black Mage, and Alex failed at life and picked Summoner. (Just kidding!!) But yeah, since we're all starting to finish World of Warcraft, I figure Facebook will catch on soon enough.

YTC: Zelda iPod Commercial

This video simply oozes pure awesomeness. That, and that there's someone out there with waaaay too much time on their hands. But I'll tell you one thing, Link can dance!

.... OK, that was kinda short, I'll admit. So here's another one... But before you watch it, think of something that always makes you mad. It could be your school, boyfriend, kids, job, when you die on CoD... Whatever it is, get nice and angry then click here.

YouTube Commentary: The Shinra Files

Since this blog is majorly devoid of posts (and I'm totally bored right now) I decided I'll take YouTube videos and add my own commentary to them. I did this on a video from Crisis Core and had a lot of fun, so here goes... the video I've picked is The Shinra Files - Episode 1 from JenxtheJinx.

"I'll go check the X-Box 360." Best. Line. Ever. Mainly cause it sounds like something I would say. That's not conceited at all. Uhh... Reno FTW! Gotta ask though, what's with the fire extinguisher?

"I swear it wasn't my fault and I didn't kill him..." Gotta add that last bit so nobody will freak out after hearing someone scream.

Have I mentioned how much I love these guys? Hilarious, always, and unlike a lot of cosplayers I've seen, they have great costumes AND story lines.

2:24 Reno looks drunk and butt raped...

"How does it feel to be a member of the Turks?" "Uh, underpaid?" Kelly's fantastic. She plays stupid well. That's supposed to be a compliment, but when I read it it doesn't sound much like one... Oops.

"NEEEEOOOOOWWW CRASH!" ... Epic win!

He pulled on the handle!

3:57 .... Awkward positions....

"Sometimes I wish I was a pony." Don't we all, Reno. Don't we all.... Then headdesk, "I don't wanna second job!" Totally agree. My only job is school, and I would hate to do anything else. It would cut into my video game and YouTube time.

Powerpuff Girls wallpaper FTW (can you tell that's my new favorite acronym?)

"I own the world." No, Rufus, that's not important at all...

"Reno, look, naked people!" "Where?" Epic win!

"That's a lampshade and a cardboard tube." "Use your effin imagination." Am I the only one who thinks of this?

Saix - err - Rude puppy?

"Ignore the man with the mustache, he's cool." Man, I love this...

Wow, that was all of it? I guess I'm thinking of Part 2, too. Well, I had fun. :D

Me and my Torture Device

I have had the worst afflicted upon me -- braces. Sure, getting them put on didn't really hurt, but right now, ooohhhh, I took two extra strength Tylenol about an hour ago, brushed my teeth for about 10 minutes, and am eating warm soup and my teeth are still killing me. But, this is what I've learned so far from having braces...

1. No Tootsie Rolls. Trust me.

2. Basically, no good food in general. If it's hard or squishy, don't eat it.

3. The second day should be the worst of it. (I'm trusting Darby and Brittany on this...)

4. The most annoying thing ever is people who say, "Ohh, braces? Lemme see!"

So yeah, I'm having a great time with these.

That was sarcasm.

Yeah.

But if you're getting braces, getting them on isn't really painful (no needles involved, thank God), but the next day or so are torture. But it's pretty fun to learn how to eat again AND you can loose weight because you're mostly eating better and slower, making you fuller faster. Yay optimism! My best advice is patience and lots and lots of Tylenol.

If you give a guy eyeliner...

This is basically just a filler on what I did this week. Hey, I thought I had a pretty interesting week. K, so it was Homecoming and we do different things every day for the week... Wednesday was Prep/Punk Day so two of my friends went punk... Then they wanted us to put eyeliner on them. So if you try to put make up on a guy, he'll complain and freak about having a pencil that close to his eye. Pretty funny actually.

Another thing I just remembered... Our English teacher asked us if we really knew what "OK" meant... One guy said "zero kills"... Very funny.

Then Saturday our band (which I am in!!) became the best 1A band in the state, we placed 1st in everything and had the highest 1A overall score ever... At least in our state. Congrats to my fav people and Mr. C!!

Friday Night Lights >>The High School Band Edition<<

Yeah, I know I ripped off the title.... And probably some copyrights, but hey, it's not like I actually have people reading this. Anyway, I now have a theory that you have not played at a high school football game unless you've played with a trumpet in your ear.

Yes, I am in the band, a flute. And last night was the first night we got to wear our uniforms!!! Oh, I love those.... I am such a band nerd... And I'm OK with that. But honestly, my worst fear (as far as band goes) is that I'm going to get knocked out by a trombone. A lot of times when we're practicing, we'll go down a note and out of the corner of my eye I see slides pop right next to my head. Then last night when we were practicing our show music, they started hitting me in the back. It's funny looking back on it, but right there I was scared to death!!

Another thing I never noticed was that trumpets get really loud. Don't get me wrong, our trumpets sound AWESOME.... It's just a louder kind of awesome standing right in front of one. And he played to the right a bit, so that it aimed right in my ear. I don't believe it was on purpose, though... If it were two other people I would, but I would suspect them since they were talking about playing in our ears. It's all fun, though, you just have to know us. :)

No! Don't do it!! Noooo!!!

Sure, the title kind of sounds silly, but this is actually something serious.... Also kind of weird to talk about, but people need to realize these things before it's too late. Say you've got a boyfriend or girlfriend (if you don't just pretend with me here)... Especially if you're around my age the hormones are all out of whack and yeah, you've probably thought about sex. I can sum it up in six words -- "For the love of God, DON'T!!" Sure the media makes it look glamorous and all and something you can do for fun and money, but they don't tell you about the real side of it. Abstinence is the only way to avoid STDs and unwanted pregnancies, neither of which can be at all fun. If you are foolish enough to go through with it, there better be condoms and birth control pills involved. Notice how I didn't say "or," because I MEANT "and." Your parents should know, too, and I know how crazy that must sound to a lot of people. This is all coming up because of this guy I know who got his girlfriend pregnant about a month ago, and he's still 14 and she might be 15. They didn't use a condom because he said it felt unnatural. For this, I say screw nature!!... Ok, bad example. But, who knows, he might be reading this right now. All I can say, and really all I have the RIGHT to say, is that I thought he would've had better sense than to go and do that. Especially since he knows his parents have had it hard lately... I feel most sorry for his mom. If you're already pregnant, you'll just have to deal with the consequences. As my English teacher would say, "You reap what you sow." Abortion should not be an option, no matter what Obama says. (I've never thought he had the right idea anyway, but who am I to judge? I can't vote.) It's kind of like The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Honestly I never watched it since I found it insulting, like it was saying every teenager in America was going to get pregnant. You just never realize it happens until it happens so close to you.

Newsflash to Clothing Designers...

Yesterday I went clothes shopping, something I hate with a passion. Know why? None of the sizes are the same. Your jeans are a size 12 from l.e.i. and 14 from Levi. It doesn't make any sense and makes shopping a pain. What takes the cake, though, is that Miley Cyrus and Max Azria line. A large t-shirt has a width of about 10 inches. Obviously the line was made to fit skinny anorexic chicks like Miley. I say we establish one universal set of sizes and save ourselves a ton of trouble.

For my English teacher

I kind of liked the idea I did with the first post here, so why not keep going? This one is for my English teacher, Mr. Hallman, for just being an awesome person and teacher. He's a former Marine and missionary, and is now a high school teacher and preacher. He knows all theses different languages and sometimes uses them to yell at us. Some of the things he does in class are he won't accept "I don't know" as an answer, makes us do push ups if we say it or just do something wrong in general, and sometimes makes us take a lap around the school building. He really makes us think and explains stuff thoroughly, and isn't afraid to pull the Bible into the conversation. (But this is the south, most schools do that anyway.) I just wanted to -thumbs-up- and congratulate him on the first impression he's given me... :)

For my brother

Today while in STEM class (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics, a.k.a. some class you'll never use in real life) we were supposed to write about this self help book our teacher's making us read. My brother, being the random kind of random that he is, typed in a bunch of nonsense, copy and pasted it, then spammed his word program with it. After that, he got other guys to start doing it too. You ever tried that?..... You ever do it so much that it crashed the program? Cause that almost happened to one of them. I gotta tell ya, as dumb as it was, it sure was fun to watch.

Yeah, this is mainly cause I told him that I was going to go home and blog about this.

(And by the way, Alex almost got to 10,000,000 words. Takes dedication to sit there for that long ;) )
