C'est les choses dans ma tête.

Deviants

I am a Deviant Arter. Heh. I laugh at my own horrible English. I have done a few pieces and posted them on an art community named Deviant Art. There is a link to it on the sidebar. To get to my site, go to Dessart and Deviant Art. I am planning on posting a couple more pieces tomorrow including a piece that I entered into the local fair.

I will add some sculptures from my sculpting class also. These will be the coolest, but, I haven't finished any sculptures yet. I am nearly finished with my sea scape. It will be swell. I will definitely post it on here and Deviant Art.

I have also really gotten into tea. But, I'd rather talk about how I am really into making techno/dance/electronica music. It rocks my world. I love freeware that I get on the internet that helps me with my artistry in the music department. I can't believe I am saying this but, I am kind of missing band right now. It would be so fun with out the atrocious Mrs. Fallis on my back.

Those were horrible days that I don't even want to write about.

Well, I'll keep you posted on my various artwork including my music. Possibly for download. Speaking of which, if you go to my Techno Spirit site, you can get some of my very early works of Techno.

Ginseng is in me.

Anime Party 2

I had anime party part 2 at my house last night. It was loads of fun. Except for the times when my sister and her friend were annoying the crap out of my friends and me. I spent almost an hour getting my room cleaned and getting a ceiling hung up in my room. What does my sister do then? She rips my ceiling down and then throws disgusting crackers at my friends heads. She is so immature thinking that she is funny when she does that. At least she got punished when my mother got home.

The school bus comes in about five minutes, so, time to start up a horrible wednesday filled with many tests. I actually had about 2 hours and 45 minutes of homework last night. It was hard and tough, but I made it throught the night.

I really have to go out to the bus stop now since the bus is coming to my homw soon.
bye!

Lemon Gensing Tea

I am sick.
It is not fun.
I still am going to school.

BUT!!!!!

I got some Lemon Gensing tea. It is really good.

It's Lipton...

I'm watching Family Guy on internet TV and my sister is annoying the crap out of me. She is playing helpless little girl. Aargh.

She wants me to make a soft preztle for her but, I think that she needs to learn to do things for herself. She is always acting like she is helpless and she will never learn how to do anything. My mom forces me to help her out. Hmmmmm.

I don't have very good writing skills right now. Sorry.

Infinity and Kitty

Infinite...
...how can we imagine it?
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Just think of it as a huge dougnut. This is the theory.
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
If something is curved to such ahuge extreme that nobody can notice the curve, it seems to just be a straight line. For all we know, infinity could be the biggest doughnut we could imagine. Just looping around in circles and never coming to a halt. The Universe, in my mind, is infinite. It is a huge doughnut. It makes sense. After the Big Bang, everything exploded out from the small point it was once at ending up in a doughnut around the original point. Why couldn't this be true?
-------------------------

And then, there is the Kitty. I made a new peice of artwork that is now on Deviant Art. Check out this surreal Kitty head. It will make you happy and want to caress the Kitty:




Then, go watch some Salad Fingers.

Cold

I have a cold and I don't feel like writing right now. But, I'll show you a picture I made last night:

24.8.05

GOOGLE CHAT!

I am talking to Ryo's sister on a new program by Google. It is called Google Talk. It is so fun, all you do is talk over a microphone and turn your speakers on and talk to your friends live. It is great!

I wonder how you would handle talking to a lot of people at once?

ANYWAYS!

I didn't have homework today! Yipee! But at the end of school today, this guy directed a sign at me saying a profane message. It was so immature and annoying.

Well, I played Final Fantasy all afternoon. Fun times. Disk 2 sucks.

TALK BYE.

23.8.05

Flickr Pics

New Flickr pics and more to come!

He are a few favorites:




FFIX

Wow, I have really gotten in to Final Fantasy. I used to play a lot, I got out of it, then now, I got back into it. Last night, instead of writing an entry (sorry!) I desperately tried to beat the first disk of Final Fantasy IX. I did! It was a grand time.

Since I don't have an immediate need for the first disk, I lent it to my friend Rachel. She's quite the FF fanatic. She has played a lot of the games and she beats them very quickly. I never try to beat them fast. I like to screw around and see what all the game has to offer.

FFIX has fantastic graphics. It is the last FF game on PSone. I can't beleive PSones can handle the graphics.

The game is obviously long considering the four different disks.

YES! I found out how to play multiplayer battle on FF. I can't wait to have someone try it out with me. Maybe my sister will when she gets home from school.


I ordered pictures from this site called Snapfish. They will print your digital or analog photos for only 20 cents a print. It is a great deal, I know. I got my first 20 prints free, so I have only ordered 17 of them. This means I get three more ofr free!

Check out Snapfish and then stray away from my yellow watermelon. It's MINE!

21.8.05

Pechelbel Canon

My new love is the song Pechelbel Canon. I have really come to a liking of it. Well, check it out for yourself: HERE

It is from a site not affiliated with mine. I love the song. It is even my cell phone ring tone. Well, I have to finishe up homework now. I'll report back later.

20.8.05

Picture Edit

I worked for an hour and a half to edit a picture that my brother scanned for me with his new scanner. I went old school and used paint to edit it. I think I did a pretty good job with it too! The picture was originally drawn with crayon on notebook paper. It is of The Prince Of All Cosmos from Katamari Damacy. Here is the original picture that was scanned by my brother with no editing at all:



And here is the final edited version:


Fun Fun Fun. It will be on Flickr.

19.8.05

Fork Tongue

I went to Algebra 2 today. Just like a normal school day. I didn't know what was in store for me yet. Here's the scoop:

So, I sit down in class, watch the teacher look silently around the room to do attendance. We then started. The teacher didn't say anything to us. Instead, she walked up to the board and wrote, "I had an operation on my tongue last night, so I can't speak. That means I have a forked tongue now."

Our class was shocked in disbelief. But, the teacher seemed to be telling the truth. She didn't say a word the whole class time. It takes quite a good teacher to be able to accomplish that. She kept the class in her control the whole time. People could've easily taken advantage of her, that didn't happen though. I guess our class was a little sympathetic, maybe.

She wrote on the board, "I have something in common with Richard Simmons now."

I didn't know what that meant, but it was funny. We get to see her forked tongue on Monday. Excitement, excitement!

Oh yes, my sister brought a pineapple to school today.

COMA SCARPER

I have a new movie idea. It came to me as I was in the restroom. Here it is:

Every being is in a coma. We are all in a reality that isn't. All of our actual bodies are stored in large buildings caller Coma Scarpers. Yes, Scarpers. When people die in the reality our minds are in, the people in the Scarper wakes up from the coma. They then venture out and see what the world is like. It is more concrete than the world we know of now. Just like dreams are more abstract than real life, being in the coma is more abstract than the actually world with the Scarpers.

Yes, a lot of stuff could happen with this genious plot.

18.8.05

Concrete Learning Material

Hello,

I learned something today and I want to share my knowledge. Every person should teach their children to count. Yes. Simply count.

I'm not talking about the perspective of counting most American people have. I am talking about actually counting instead of memorizing a phrase.

Okay, when you have a child, if you ever do. You should teach them to count by giving them three pencils and say, "There are three pencils here."

"There are six pencils here," you say if you put six pencils in their hand.

Learning children are sponges that suck up information. You need to provide actual substace for them to suck up instead of some abstract phrase. Abstract phrases aren't yet recognize by children...
...or at least we don't think so.

Well, maybe "Baby genius" was correct. For all we know, babies could live in a sort of alternate reality that we don't even know exists. Maybe they are planning to take over or even end the World as we know it.

Haha. What a cool conversation with myself.

17.8.05

Homework Gallore

I hope that I don't run out of titles for describing my homework filled days...
...Homework Gallore is a good start.

So, yes, I had a lot of homework today all of which I finished. Except for this one problem on a math worksheet. I am supposed to find out what George Constanza said he wanted to name his son on "Seinfeld". Yes, very strange.

One thing is making me happy right now. In sculpting tomorrow, we get to start our first project. Oh yeah. This is where it gets good. So far in sculpting, all we have done is sit and talk basically. Fun, fun, fun; but quite a waste of time. I am excited to find out the first media we will use to sculpt. So far, in the intro class last year, we used Sculpie, Clay, and Paper Machee strip thingys. I hope we get to use a different media for the actual sculpting class. This sculpting class I am in is really small. Only 13 people are in it and the ambiance of the class is very relaxing. What fun?

On the lower side of my schooling is 1: My locker location, which I have already talked about numerous times. (I haven't been late yet, fortunately) 2: My double dose of math. Today I did about an hour and a half of homework.Well, I did homework while listening to the Katamari Damacy CD and I listened to the whole thing almost exactly one time before I finished my work. I am just guessing that is around an hour. Still, compared to last year, (my year of never, ever having homework) this year requires a lot of work and attention.

I hope you have fun when your school starts. (If you are still in school and haven't started yet.)

16.8.05

First Day

So, as I'm sure you all know, today was the first day of my sophomore year at the school of the high. It is especially difficult this year because I am taking a double dose of math. Geometry and Algebra 2 at the same time. Heh heh. Awesome, huh? What isn't awesome is being late to class because of my locker's location. It's horrible to deal with. I am forced to carry 2 or more huge text books at once. Horrid horrid horrid.

Yeah, so I will be forced to find a way to manage. I am thinking about writing a letter to the coorporation to try to convince them to lengthen the passing period. We have SOOOO many incoming freshmen this year. Our school has around 1600 people in it. The school was expecting 1300 and they got 1600. A little off, maybe? The halls are so congested. I don't know how I will manage.

Geometry is very easy, French very hard, Algebra 2 hard, and Speech is super, super easy. Well, at least those were my first impressions. Those are subject to change. Heh heh. I got to talk about how I wrote in a blog during English. BONUS!

So that was my day, how about you?

15.8.05

Soon

School...
...is...
...so....
...soon...

....Must...
...SLEEP!

Morning

It is fairly early for me to be up. I actually woke up over an hour ago. Are you proud of me?? Haha, I should sleep well tonight.

School tomorrow.

You know what that means. 7 different teachers introduce themselves to you in one day. You also have 6 or 7 book assigned to you that you must lug around. It is quite a hassle to worry about. That's what I was thinking about last night. I was trying to figure out how I would handle my books and still make it to class on time. This may be quite a challenge to accomplish this year since my locker is way out in the back corner of the school.

I'm not quite sure if tomorrow is going to be a half day or not. I is usually a half day on the first and the last day of school, but the schedule doesn't say anything about it being a half day. If is is a full day, there will be more pain a suffering tomorrow. Let's hope for the worst though so if it is a half day, it will be even more happy.

14.8.05

Back to School

It is almost time to go back to school. One more day left. So, I have written this Haiku:

Cherry Blossoms go:
To learn things that we don't know-
School time is here.

Not too great, but I am bored. Let me tell you, the perfect thing to do when you are bored is to write Haikus. It is great. They usually take a lot of time just to write those three lines. This one, for example, took me about 10 minutes. That's a long time just to write down 17 syllables.

I actually won a poetry contest once. It was fun. I wrote this poem about teachers or something and I was invited to this awards ceremony were I got a copy of the book that my poem was published in and I got this little blue ribbon. It was quite exhilarating. I never thought that the poem was very good in the first place. Obviously some people did though.

Aahhhhhhhhhh. I am so anxious for school. I think I may start freaking out.

Body Worlds

Wow, I had quite a day yesterday! Here's ths scoop:

Well, the day starts by my mom coming into my room and saying, "Ryan, I just got tickets for us to go to that Body World exhibit in Chicago. You need to get up and get ready."

I was half-asleep at the moment so I screamed out, "Mom, you're my princess!" Yeah, I think it's weird too.

After I was ready, my aunt, whom was joining us on the trip, arrived. All four of us (my sister also came) piled in the tiny VW Beetle that my mom drives and head out to Chicago. My mom had printed off some directions from the museum website so we were set! Or so we though...

Everything appeared to be going okay untill we were getting into Chicago. My mom had taken us straight into the ghetto! Worst of all, they were having a big festival of some type meaning the traffic was horrible and people were walking all over the place! And, because of the parade, a major road was blocked! Major detours were to be found by us as we zoomed around the Chicago area for 2 hours trying to find our way to the museum. After passing the museum twice and missing the turn to the parking lot, we finally got into the museum and found a parking spot about 300 feet underground.

Trust me on this one, being stuck with your fifth grade sister in the backseat of a VW Beetle for four and a half hours is not comfortable in the least. It is HORRIBLE!

We walked through the museum for about 2 hours before it was our turn to go to Body Worlds. If you don't know of the Body Worlds exhibit yet, let me be the one to inform you:

Body World is this big project where a German man named Gunther Von Hagen discovered a new way to preserve dead human bodies by injecting a sort of plastic in them. The process is called plastination. After the cadaver is finished with the plastination process, they are called plastinates. So, they have these plastinates set up in a huge exhibit that you can easily spend 2 hours looking around in. We spent 2 and a half. There are bodies that are spilt open in a variety of ways sitting out in the open for all paying visitors to see. It is truely fasinating. Unfortunately though, the exhibit will not be available to view after the 4th of September. If you are in the Chicago area before then, I stongly recommend visiting. Here are some photos I found around the internet of some planstinates (I wasn't allowed to take pictures when I was there):






So, after looking at the exhibit and taking a strange (but safer) route home, I sat in my room and watched Paranoia Agent. The second-to-last episode of Paranoia Agent is a great one. It is going to be rerun on Wednesday. Check it out!

12.8.05

DDR Nonstop

Yeah, I just finished playing Eternal Mode on DDR and I am so exhausted. I played untill I reached 25 songs. That means I played nonstop for about 35 minutes. Very cool.

Well, I guess this means I have my work-out for the day taken care of. This morning, in the bathtub, I enjoyed myself while reading Vampire Hunter D. The bathtub is definately the best place to read in the whole house. No one will bug you or will want to bug you, you are relaxed and warm, and you can bathe at the same time you read. (if you are really talented)

So, my sweat has finally dried up and I am calmed down from my mad DDRing.

I have recently noticed that a few people that are coming to my site are from the U.S. Government...
...how very strange. I wonder why.

I also wonder why I am being targeted for spam with this blog it is really annoying.

Mr. Morning

I will have to start going to bed earlier and waking up earlier to get adjusted to the school schedule. It will not be a good time. But currently, I am hungry for breakfast.

What shall fill my belly up this morning. I don't feel like taking the time to make pancakes, hash browns, eggs, or crepes. Maybe I do feel like cereal... ...no, maybe not. (I think in this pattern every morning) So, now i browse through every cabnet....
...I found a pop-tart!

Not just any pop-tart, I found a cookie dough pop-tart.

Wow, this cookie dough filling tastes nothing like cookie dough.

Okay, I finished the pop tart. Yum, my breakfast was gross this morning...


Oh yeah, by the way, I just read a new article that says Wal Mart (no star) is going to try to loose its "looser" brand and try to get the "cool" brand that Target stores carry.

11.8.05

(d) I did it! (d)

YAY! I finally figured it out! I added my own logo to the address bar for when you use the firefox browser! That means that there is an official Dessart In The Dessert Logo now! Quite exciting isn't it. The best part is you can type it! Like this: (d)

It can be kinda like a cult symbol or something. (even though this site is far from being a cult)

(d)
(d)
(d)

Haha, okay, I have revived from my trance. Now I can talk without the parenthesis.

Yeah, so, go spray paint (d) really big on your house so that your house is the coolest on the block! (I am not liable for damages to property if "(d)" is actually spray painted somewhere.

Yahoo, Lying?

Here is a follow-up article on the claim that Yahoo search is now more comprehensive. It is from Boing Boing:

" Thursday, August 11, 2005
Battelle on Yahoo search claims, Google reply
Yahoo issued an announcement earlier this week in which they claimed to have indexed over 20 billion items. Over on Searchblog, Boing Boing "band manager" John Battelle posts:

[This] ruffled more than a few feathers across the web, and nowhere more distinctly than at Google. I spent an hour or so on the phone with a group of Google folks, and they shared a lot of information about how they measure index size, how they deal with issues of duplicate URLs and documents, and why they are baffled by Yahoo's claim. I am still reporting this story, so a longer post is forthcoming, but an update at the end of the day is worth penning.

First of all, I agreed to review some of the Google information on background, agreeing not to disclose it save with permission. (I agreed to this only if I could tell you all that I did in fact agree to it). I am still digesting what Google had to say, and the information they sent me, but it did leave a distinct set of questions percolating in my mind, questions that I plan to speak to Yahoo about (Yahoo has agreed to talk as well, we just haven't had time yet).

In any case, the lead really is this: I asked Google to go on the record with their concerns about Yahoo's index and whether they believed the news was in fact accurate, and Google agreed. The quote, which I can only attribute at this point to a "Google spokesperson," is as follows:

"Our scientists are not seeing the increase claimed in the Yahoo! index. The data we have doesn't support the 19.2 (billion page) claim and we're confused by that."

Details here. A response from Yahoo, and analysis on how their numbers were calculated, is said to be forthcoming in another post. But as JBat says, the larger point seems to be:

This calls for a benchmark/standard for measurement that might makes all of this moot.

In related news, and also on JBat's blog, the widely discussed Google/Meetro buyout rumor is thought to be false: Link.

Very interesting. Could Yahoo be lying? That could mean certain doom...
...hey, it's possible.

Ma jour: avec Ryo.

I will now inform you of my day with the brilliant mastermind, Ryo. (check out his long, master blog here)

First, he came over to my house, and because of the power-outage, we played Rulette. It was a fun time. Then, after a little bit of boring time, we went to his house. When we arrived, we played DDR, listened to music, and jumped on his trampoline. It was a good time in a box. (formally called a house)

Well, last night, I went to school to get registered. I saw a lot of people I knew, but not many people I would actually talk to. One of the people I would actually talk to was my good ol' friend Amanda. She is so cool. She likes anime, DDR, and manga.

I think that writing on this white screen gets me really optimistic...
...just a random thought.

Paranoia Agent is on television tonight. It is rather exciting because only two episodes remain, meaning, this will be the second to last episode! (obviously...)

I have a current lack of thought. That's why this entry is cut short.

Yahoo In The News

On Monday, Yahoo released information about their new expanded database. They are now covering more websites and images than Google making them the most comprehensive search engine in the world, but not necessarily the best. Here is a quote from AOL business news:

"Yahoo said its index, boosted by a recent upgrade, covers 20.8 billion online "objects," comprised of about 19.2 billion documents and 1.6 billion images.

By comparison, Google said it tracks 11.3 billion objects. That figure consists of the nearly 8.2 billion Web pages that Google proudly touts on its home page and 2.1 billion images, with the remainder of material coming from its group discussions."

That's just a clippit of little information that may be interesting to you. It was to me! Read the full article here.

Panda Express

Last night at the mall, after I got my Vampire Hunter D novel at Suncoast, we walked around. We ventured into Hot Topic and Somehow, Rachel managed to start conversation with the employees there. After talking to the employees for a while, we went to Game Stop and she knew more employees there! We talked with them for a while then went to eat at Panda Express. When we got in line, the first thing that we looked at was what brand of soft drink they provided. It was Pepsi. I was okay with that because I just got the Nuetral Dr. Pepper. But, Rachel had a problem with it. To protest, she walked to the other side of the mall in search of a Coke machine. She finally found one and returned to me at Panda Express. I orderedand egg roll, Orange Chicken, and Mandarin Chicken. Rachel got Orange Chicken, Mandarin Chicken, and Crab Rangoon. We ate and talked about comedians such as the brilliant Kathy Griffin. After finishing the fortune cookies, we left the mall and her mom kindly took me back to my home.

AOL NEWS

Here is a quote from AOL NEWS in an article about the space shuttle's landing getting delayed:

"Collins planned to tweak Discovery's orbit slightly so that if the shuttle had to land in California, it would not fly over Los Angeles. Since the Columbia accident, which showered debris over Texas and Louisiana when the ship broke apart, NASA decided to avoid flying over heavily populated areas."

-AOL NEWS

Uhhh, real reassuring, huh?

Mall

Today, I get to go to the mall with my friend Rachel. I think we are going to look at anime and manga at Suncoast, look at some pokey gothic clothes at Hot Topic, and maybe even venture into Dicks. (haha, not really, just wanted to pun on the name) But right now, I feel like coming up with a strange story idea that could possibly be a movie in the future:

There's this guy, Remus, is a handyman at a construction company. His social status isn't high, but he is rich. How? He is in debt big time. He over-used that plastic. This story is a financial adventure in which Remus is trying to get him and his family out of debt. Will Remus looose his wife in the process? Will Remus crack down and file Bankrupcy? I dunno. I haven't decided yet, but that is the basic plot.

Heh heh. Pretty good plot for only 2 minutes of thinking about it. I think that a movie needs to be made about an average Joe and his average problems. Only a few should be made average though. People will probably get bored of them quickly.

Pants

I just went to Purdue University. I would have pictures if it weren't for that danged Wal*Mart. I just want to rip the star out of the sign, and replace it with a space, because the star is the only happy thing that is near Wal Mart!

du du du - du du-- du du du - du du-- du du du - du du. Look at me, I'm...

...Okay, now I feel a little better...
...but I'm still rather mad...

Okay, so here's the scoop:

I took an awsome picture of fog setting over a field and 18 other pictures of the fountain at Purdue lit up at night. They were going to be the best photos in my collection yet. When we arrive at Wal*--- Wal Mart, I got out of the car and my camera fell and hit the ground with such force that the battery fell out. The battery is what keeps the camera memory meaning, I came home with no pictures!

What a heart-breaking story...

Tea Time

Morning:

Today, I shall invite my previous next door neighbor, Laura, over for some tea.

After she arrives home from The Church, I want to see her, but I may not get my way.

She may be spending her day, with her beloved companion.

But, if she does not, I see a good time coming my way with an old friend!


Midday:

No answer on her home phone...

No answer from my message...



Late Night:

My old friend called...

Bad conversing from both...

Too late for a good time...............

She spent it with her beloved.

Picture Taker

I never thought that I would see the day...
...when I went on a hike with the sole purpose of taking pictures. My brother was always the picture type. With all of his fancy cameras and film containers, he takes pictures all the time. All I've ever had is a $5 camera untill very recently. Picture taking is greater than I expected.

On my picture hike, I was alone. Away from my whining, stubborn sister and at one with nature. But, before I went on my hike, I took some pictures just around my house. I saw a little chipmunk sitting on this little stone wall. Here is a picture of it:




After I took this picture of the chipmunk, it ran into a hole in the wall it was sitting on. I came back later to get another picture of it and it's little head was peaking out of the hole. It was so funny. I just sat there staring at it for a long time, tht is untill a motorcycle came with a really loud engine and scared the chipmunk back into the hole.

So, I started on my hike. I went to the look-out point and took some pictures of the out ahead and some pictures of the creek below. It was a grand time. So, I came home and posted my pictures on my Flickr so all my many readers can look at them! Here is the picture of the hills:

New camera!

I got a new digital camera today!!! Here's the scoop:

I went to Target today to get a backpack for the upcoming school year in the school of the high. So, after seeing my 6th grade English teacher, Ryo and I went to look at the backpacks. When I finally decided on one, I looked at the price. It was $50! A little expensive (or so I thought then) since the other backpacks were only like $15. But, a interesting memory leaped out of Ryo's mouth. It was a memory that said, "I heard that Dick's was giving away a digital camera with every backpack purchase of $50 or more!"

I was at the local Dick's in minutes and picked out a really expensive backpack and pick out a really cheap camera and we checked out. The rest is just as you would expect it. I went to Ryo's house, watched Team America, took some screenshots of the movie with my new digital goodness, and went back to the horror house where I took more pictures and made the cool Flickr thing on the sidebar of this site. On the Flickr, you can see a lot of the pictures I have taken. They kinda pop up in an interesting fashion. So, look at my awsome bad-quality photos, and just chill!




New shows

There is a set of new shows coming to Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. It is really cool because that is really the only set of shows that I watch on TV. Change is for the better in this case. There is this new show called the Oblongs that is really funny, and then Neon Genesis Evangelion is coming to Adult Swim! It is really truely excting. Unfortunately though, Evangelion won't come to Adult Swim untill I am back in school.



Well, anyway, last night I had a lot of fun singing 80's songs in the car when we were coming home from dinner at pepe's. I always wondered how to say that. Would it be pronounced: peypey's, pepies, or pee pee's? I never really knew. Of course no habla espagnol here! But J'ai parler fracais! I hate speaking French though. I thought that it would be very enjoyable. But, I come to school my freshman year to find out that it is extremely embarassing to take French. The teacher likes to try to mess you up in front of the class. And, my French class is full of really, really smart kids. So, I had to start out every school day last year being humiliated. WHAT FUN.

What I am going to do my junior year is start taking Japanese and stop taking French. Japanese seems so fun. They get to watch anime! YES! I just got news that I get to take care of my neighbor's awesome dog and get paid for it!! YAY, I love it when money comes into my life!!

I have officially been labled.

I am officially became an Anime Junky today. Well, at least according to my new shirt! I went school clothes shopping today at the local mall. I only got one shirt but I realized that was all I needed.

So, I kinda got restless. I started watching Vampire Hunter D before the anime party next weekend. SIN SIN SIN... OH no, I just rememebered, I am being forced to go to church Sunday by my parents! But, I want to stay away from being opinionated about things. I always get pushed around when I get opinionated and voice my thoughts. It kinda sucks.

Well, please don't feel sorry for me. (another thing I hate)

Wow, I posted quite a few entries today. Is that showing that I am completely bored here? Quite possibly.

Me Familie


This is my family created by me in Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. Very cool! They are even standing in my park. The one in the center with the blond hair is me. For some reason, my dad isn't in the picture. Weird.

Zee Movie Arrival

My ordered movie was not quite as far as I thought. It came in the mail today! I can't wait untill I get to watch it. It'll be so cool. I am waiting to watch it though untill this anime party that I am going to in a couple weeks. I think this movie will be another inspiring experience. Movies seem to inspire me a lot. It is a little strange. The most aspiring movie I have ever seen is "Tim Burton's: A Nightmare Before Christmas." Then recently, I saw Charlie and The Chocolate Factory and I was once again inspired by Tim Burton's greatness. I love his style. From the dark mysterious waves of ground in The Nightmare Before Christmas to the childish randomosity of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory all inspire me. I love Tim Burton's humor and sense of movie style. When I have to write a report at the New York Film Academy about my inspiration, Tim Burton will definately be the main focus. AAA EEEE. I have to watch one of his movies right now!

Wisdom from me: "Pickles smell similar to feet because of their vinegar content. It is just plain wrong to put a pickle in your mouth. Just as wrong as putting a foot into your mouth. Hey that sounds like a good thing for me to do right NOW!"

So close but yet so far

I ordered a movie about a week ago. I am trying to patiently wait for it but it is so hard. I don't want to wait ....

AHHHHHHH! My sister just walked into the room and she's singing some Jesus song that she learned at her summer camp. It is so annoying. She knows I hate camp songs. Of course though, she is a little sibling. They love to be annoying. Anyways, back to the main point...
...I don't want to wait for a movie that takes 7-10 days to arrive. I mean it is such a long time to wait for something you really want when you know it is so close. So close but yet so far. Hey what a good saying for the title, I'll have to change that...
...Okay.

I am thinking my movie (Vampire Hunter D) will come this weekend. Which is completely horrible because I will not be home this weekend! So, I hope Monday, I get my movie!

So, I live near these trails. They are basically in my backyard. (by the way, I just moved here) I think my sister is finally leaving my presence to go hiking in them with my mom's friend that is currently visiting. They are fairly nice. You can hike up to the top of this hill and sit on this wooded bench and look at hills of trees, or you can go way down low and walk right next to a creek. That's a bad place to go this time of the year though because of the mosquitoes.

Does anybody reading (nobody) know what DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) is? Well, it is a great game by Konami that originated in Japan (like all other games) and has been in America for a while now. You can research it on your own time. But anyways, my friend, Ryo, and I are starting a DDR club at our school. I am really excited about it. We will hang out after school once a week and play the game. We are going to have T-shirts and a newsletter. It'll be really awesome if it works out.

I am making this movie in my free-time. I wrote the script for it. Here it is. I don't know if you will get the full picture of the movie by reading it but, you should get some idea:

(Crash) Aahhhhhh! (faerie sound) (During darkness) What's happening. Aahhhh! Stop! Stop! Please stop!

Scene 2: The Gate Keeper

Tchik: (Notices snake) (speaks quickly) Who are you and where am I?

(snake reappears) Ha, I showed him!

Snake: Very nice moves. But, that knife should be the least of your worries. It is now becoming night. I would suggest being careful when vision is reduced.

Tchik: Uhhh, okay. Thanks for the advice. You are a good helper to me. I'm glad I'm not in this alone.

Snake: Goodnight. (disappears)

Scene 4: The End of Snake

Bat: Snakey, here snakey! Will you please some out and play with me? Hehehe. I'd love some snake right now! I'm sure my friends would be very pleased to see you too!

The mark is gone and all is well! I must've been on that guys arm the whole time. Wow, I had really shrunk a lot. (ending music and credits roll)


The End


The movie is only about 10 minutes long. But, I am satisfied with it. My friends and I are supposed to do the voices today. Hmmmm, I'll have to find a way to get their attention.

Screenwriter

I am aspiring to be a screenwriter for movies. I have to first prove to myself that I can handle all the writing.

I thought, "What better way to write and improve my writing than by creating a journal."

I turned once agian to myself, "Journals are extremely boring to write in. I mean, paper, pencil, how out-dated." (I get enough of paper and pencil at school anyways)

My head spun to face the opposite direction, "What about a BLOG?"

My head shook back and forth. "NO! I already tried that, it didn't last."

When my face finally stopped moving all over the place, I thought. (out-loud, I may add) "Maybe with a little motivation, I can keep it going. What shall my motivation be though...
hmmm... I know. If I can write in this blog regularly about completely interesting but random things, I will have proven myself worthy of the wonderful job title "screenwriter." I mean, I am literally writing for a screen. Hmmmmmmmmm... not quite the job I had in mind.
