Here's to Life
2008-02-09 22:56:00
I've been so busy lately, so I feel tired today. I've been listening to the band, "The Refreshments" lately though. Apparently they are an older band whom I knew of but have now been reacquainted with. :P I think you should listen to them if you haven't, they are soothing. :) In fact, the title of this blog has lyrics dedicated to my favorite song by them. Let's see, it's been about two weeks since my last entry and I am sure I have numerous things to speak of.I got a part in the school play! A small part, a speakless part, but a part nonetheless! xD The day we found out who got what parts was very exciting. My best friend got the lead role, believe it or not. :) I am so incredibly excited for her. It's so amazing but she deserved it, she is the best dancer in the school and since the musical we are doing is mostly dance well, what could be better?! She always is full of spunk too and will do a wonderful acting job. ;) We've had two rehearsals so far and more coming...

WoW Stories Around the Blogfire: Part 1
2008-01-29 02:23:00
World of Warcraft is similar to real life in a few ways. Some can point fingers at the economy, the community, the wars, etc. but the one essential element that every player of World of Warcraft shares are the memories of their many adventures. Nobody goes through the epic quest from level one to seventy too totally brainwashed to remember any monumental events that have taken place, no matter how minor or major they were. However, to keep an account of one's journeys throughout the endless realms of Azeroth enables the individual to easily recall what happenings had taken place without doubt. Thanks to Blizzard, the players are allowed to take in-game screenshots with the press of a button, which then automatically saves in an automatically destined folder. With the power of a picture being worth a thousand words (however I dislike that thought as I'm a man of captions), players can recount their playing time by viewing their photo album of their toon's life. That may be very ni...

WoW Update
2008-01-28 03:53:00
Right now there is a server shutdown on World of Warcraft for most realms, so I figured I would come on to type up an entry about the game itself. My inactivity at the blog is due to my heightened addiction toward WoW. I'm at the point in the game where I'm experiencing new things that I never encountered before, as the highest level I ever was prior to my current toon was 47. I'm entering zones I never set foot in before, fighting monsters that I never fought before, and doing quests that I never did before. I can't say much for instances, however. The first instance I did since Wailing Caverns (and not counting the time I soloed Shadowfang Keep when I was farming light leather from the worgens and beasts there) was the Sunken Temple, and that was just a run with the purpose of completing my level 50 hunter quest for my new beloved weapon -- the hunter spear. I'm not much of an instance kind-of-guy. I really don't like to group up, as I feel like I'm obligated to have to do ...

Drama-ette
2008-01-27 01:43:00
Hey kids. =P Life has been good, very busy, and quite exciting this week. :) Well I got my braces off Tuesday morning! Yep, all done. The appointment lasted a good hour and wasn't painful or scary or any of that. I love my teeth toooo. They seem a lot bigger though and I still have to go get a good cleaning and will recieve my pink glow in the dark retainer Thursday. ;DThursday of this week Drama began again at the school after not having a fall play because of the absence of finding a new director and such. If I liked Drama a lot before, I am pretty sure I love it now. :) It's so fun. Everything about it. I like that there are people in Drama with me that I may not have become friends with or got to known well otherwise. It's a little family, hehe. Aside from that, Drama allows me to gain more confidence and show another side of myself that people wouldn't expect of me. The Spring Musical we are doing is called "A Chorus Line" and the show probably won't be until early...

Seventeenth Birthday and More
2008-01-20 23:44:00
A bit overdue I know, yet I started typing this birthday entry the day after my birthday it has still taken more than a week to actually post it. =P I turned officially 17 years old as of Friday, January 11th, 11:20am. :) Weird, Friday is also the exact day of the week I was born. I am not even sure if I'd be able to sum up my birthday in one word, but I guess I can try. Oh! Got it. =) It was fabulous! The day was fabulous, my friends were fabulous, the song "Fabulous" from HSM even played on the radio and I sang along making things more fabulous. =) I had one of the best, if not thee best, birthday ever. =D I say that truthfully with a smile on my face just thinking about it.First of all, seventeen seems a lot older than sixteen for some reason. I don't necessarily "feel" older, but I was thinking the other night how I really have changed towards "acting" older, without even noticing it. This has occurred quickly too, like two years ago I was a lot different. I did hal...

Late Night Breakfast & Proud BIG Sister!
2008-01-16 05:40:00
I noticed that many of you don't post much during the week, and that is obviously because you are all busy with the hectic days of your high school careers. I decided to try to type up at least one entry a day during the week so you all have something to read if you come onto the blog. It's almost midnight and I am eating a bowl of cereal (Count Chocula) as I type up this entry. It's really strange that if I eat cereal or any kind of breakfast first thing in the morning or anytime before noon I get very sick to my stomach, so I usually eat my breakfast at night. I don't really like to eat anything right before I go to bed at night because then I have really really bad nightmares. Tomorrow is Bobby's interview for his new job...*finger's crossed*...I am really hoping that he gets this job, then I won't have to worry about anything. He will have health benefits from the day that he starts, 401k plan, vaca and sick time etc. I am still going to work at the same place that we bot...

AP Chemistry Homework...With A Twist
2008-01-13 05:58:00
Click to Play Nothing like doing some good ol' AP chemistry at night. And shall I add: literally, at night. You will see soon enough when you hit the 'play' button -- if you dare to. However, enough with explaining. There is nothing to explain! This video is meant to make your mind suffer and for your brain to lose many neurons. I'm sorry -- it just has to be this way.

I Hate The Phone!
2008-01-10 02:25:00
Click to Play I'm not much of a phone user. In fact, I hate phones! I would rather talk over a microphone, even if the quality was bad, than to use a phone with crystal clear audio. It may be the reason why I didn't use my cell phone in over a year. I really hate phones when people call me for homework help. This is one of the reasons why Lakeland Study Buddy (http://buddyfoote.110mb.com/lakeland) was created. I'm not much of a listener. I have to see to either explain something or say anything logical. When people talk to me about homework over the phone, I'm like catching a deer in headlights -- blind and dumbfounded. When people call me, I literally hear "blah blah blah". Yes, I would rather type than talk -- unless, like I stated early, I'm using a mic. And being that my new laptop has a built-in microphone, it's even better for me to talk on it. C'mon people, good mics only cost from five to fifteen dollars. And above is a video of myself, expressing my "...

Hello everyone, just a quick entry to let you all know that I won't be posting much due to the fact that I am returning to work tomorrow.....OH JOY!!!! Actually I am rather excited about returning to work, my husband and I have been laid off since Octoberish and I am going out of my mind being in the house all the time. It will be good for me to interact with other people , other than Bob. I love Bob to death but it's good to be around other people and to be able to conversate with others. Due to the fact that I have to return to work I have to change the schedule of my eldeset cat's medication. He takes phenobarbital because he takes seizures. I have been giving it to him at 9a.m. and 9p.m. because it is to be given to him every 12 hours. I am going to have to go give it to him around 6:30 in both the a.m. and p.m. now. I was giving it to him at 9 so I could still sleep in a bit in the morning. I think that it's going to be rough to get back in the groove of things wit...

The New Runescape Age
2008-01-06 19:41:00
I haven't played the popular MMORPG game known as Runes cape since June 2007, when I logged out for the last time in my kyatt clothing, dragon woodcutting axe, and my woodcutting skill cape. Well, that's sort of a lie. I did log in a few times afterwards whenever I needed a break from the PVP action on the new MMORPG that I fled to, World of Warcraft. However, ever since I left the PVP server of Azgalor and created a new toon, a troll hunter, on the PVE server of Whisperwind, I didn't have to flee from any PVPing as I was able to choose when I could PVP or not. Therefore, I barely logged onto Runescape at all. Even though I left Runescape almost half a year ago after playing it continuously for two years, I still read the news every once in a while whenever I remembered to. The news was good at first after I left the game, with promising updates (however bizarre to me at first) and new additions that would please many players, either new or old.Once November and December came arou...

Growing Up Is Hard To Do!
2008-01-06 12:25:00
I was just looking through some of the things that other's have posted on the blog and instead of commenting on every one individually I thought that I would just dedicate this entry to just that. First I would like to give Buddy Foote and Caitlin and big thumbs up on the excellent work that they did on putting this blog together.....Great Job Guys!! It really does look amazing, the layout is wonderful and there are so many fun things on it. I know that I posted a blog already about Lakeland and how you will feel once you leave there and yada yada, but I noticed that Caitlin mentioned some things in her last entry about having a talk with a few of her friends about what they plan to do following graduation and what not. I am not going to lecture (advise) you all that I have previously done, I just would like to make some comments and tell you all that growing up is hard to do. I am not trying to scare you or anything like that, maybe this is just a warning about "The Real Worl...

"Just aimless with each other - is what we do"My first entry of 2008...will be good. :) I hope. Well, I'll start by saying I updated/altered my mini-profile over on the left hand side. I like it more now. ^_^ I had a terrific New Year s and my mini-week back at school had been great. I mentioned in my last entry that I was spending New Years with my two superly friends and I did just that. The hours leading up to midnight we spent dancing to "Pump it Up" but after we got too hot we stopped and spent about three hours talking. I love when we talk like that, and it can't be forced. We call them "talks", [ha, yeah, good name] and we had a great one the day I had them sleepover my house, and we had a nice one that night too. I don't think I would have wanted to end the year any other way. We talked a lot about college and our plans of what we might want to do, and what our parents keep telling us, and how we're unsure/sad/scared, and it was pretty serious. The best part is...

Wintry Weather Causes Me To Be Bored!
2007-12-31 08:07:00
First off I would like to wish everyone a happy 2008 (even though I am a little early). The snow is really coming down out there as I lay on my bed and type this blog. I guess that the snow is okay as long as I don't have anywhere to travel to, which in this case I don't. I can't believe how quickly this year passed. It really seems like only yesterday that we were welcoming the year 2007, now it's about to come to an end. I can't really say that I did anything exciting this past year, so I am hoping to change that in the coming year. Maybe take a long, relaxing vacation and maybe even like the place so much that I won't come back :-) , I am actually hoping to make something of myself this year. I am planning to go back to school for Elementary Education and land a teaching job at my old elementary school(that being Lakeland). I know that I have the brains and the determination to go back to school and achieve my dreams of being a teacher, but do I have the money. Sch...

"2007 was good. 2008 will be even better. I promise."Happy New Year's, fellas. :) Technically that's a bit early, but I bet in places like Australia it's only a matter of hours for them now. Hours for us too...sorta. Yeah, you get my point. I haven't gone too many places the past few days, mainly because I haven't been feeling too great and was a bit sick. Everybody seems to be sick though. I spent a lot of time reading instead. Finished two books, working on starting a third. I missed that feeling of having a stack of fresh novels home and being able to get lost into them and binge-read. xD With school keeping me busy on most nights, I lose time to read like that. The first book I read was about a girl named Remy and her summer between senior year ending and before she left for college. I liked it a alot, even though the ending left things dangling, which I actually sort of like. The second I finished today was about a girl with an eating disorder and whose father d...

Well, I just went to login on World of Warcraft when I got the message my prepaid time of playing was up. :( No more free trial. No more WoW. I was hoping after today it'd be up, not actually ON the 26th. :P I didn't get to play yesterday because Christmas is a busy day. However, I did play a lot the day before. My troll shaman creature raised a level, and I died 5 times finishing these two hard quests. I wanted to finish them, and I figured I'd keep trying and die each step I took getting closer. xD Got annoying after awhile..but I finished them! :P That probably wasn't the smartest way to go after finishing a quest, but now I am a little sad my time is up. It was a pretty fun game, had a nice adventure quality attached to it which I liked. :] I liked the scenery too but ...

Current status: Sitting on my bedroom floor typing this up on my laptop at 11:41 P.M. at night while feeling shitty from having the flu as "They Might Be Giants" songs play in the background.Yes, it's Christmas Eve soon to be Christmas Day in less than twenty minutes, and I have the flu. It's only a minor version of the flu, thank God, but still, it stinks. Every new day presented a new sickness as the sickness from the previous day no longer existed. I don't want to know what I'll have tomorrow when I wake up. I swear if it's a sore neck, I'm done in for the day. Sore necks just ruin my day. I would rather take a migraine headache than have to deal with a sore neck. And when your neck hurts and you hold it in a position for an x amount of time and you then obtain a stiff neck -- then it's the end of the world. Anyway, I have been sick since Friday with a variety of symptoms. And yes, that means I wrote "The UPS Men: Part 1" while I was sick. I swear I have more motivation wh...

Seven Deadly Songs of the Week V.3.

This is a weekly addition to the blog. I will in these sections critique songs I randomly pick and explain the strong and weak points and then rate them on a scale of 1 to 5. Overall is the average of all ratings prior to it. I will first be strict on all aspects. The ?My Rating? section has been eliminated seeing as I got made fun of for giving Fall Out Boy a 5. Whatever. Well, here we go. Reggie & the Full Effect ? Apocalypse Wow! ?Lets get it on!!!? I love that hardcore intro to this song. I am a big Reggie fan. This is really good if you?re into rock music with a big keyboard sound. He doesn?t have the best voice or lyrics. But the music is rather great. The palm-muted chords are a little repetitive but that?s okay. A good song to get pumped up. Song Meaning: Break-up song. Intro- 4 Verses- 3 Chorus- 3 Bridge- 3 Ending- 4 Instruments- 5 Lyrics- 2 Vocals- 2 Creativity- 4 Overall- 3.3 The Caesars ? Jerk It Out Haha, now this is a funny song. But it is still a good song. ...

Sugar We?re Going DownI know that picking this and telling you I like it may make you hate me, but you?re just gonna have to deal with the fact that I like this band. Look past the members, look past the success, and maybe you will too. This is the song that started the craze. It has an unmistakable intro, followed by a nice sung verse by Mr. Stump. It then escalades little by little until it?s finally unleashed with the chorus. And no one seems to know what he says but I?ll clear it up. At the end of the chorus he says ?Loaded God Complex, cock it and pull it. It?s a play on the f...

Bob & Bonnie This is probably the best song off of their album ?A Collection of Short Stories?. The first 10 seconds of this song let you know right away that this song is the real deal.

Speaking of my dog, the kitten finds attacking my dog fun. :P Especially when her tail wags, he will pounce at it with his claws out.
