Alas, an update! [Oct. 15th, 2006|10:29 am]

[mood | pleased]
[music |Crossfade's self-titled album]

Yes, I know, I'm updating the blog. Surprising, no? I would've done this sooner and more often, buuut...I just never got around to it. So I thought, "Meh, why not do it now?"...so then, here it goes.

Not much to talk about, just that school's been progressing as usual and it still sucks. BUT...this past Tuesday I got Mortal Kombat Armageddon for PS2. *drools* IloveitIloveitIloveitIloveitIloveitIloveit. And the Saturday before that I got "The Godfather" novel and the Scarface Platinum Edition DVD. I love both of em.
And now about the Homecoming Dance last night....ooooh boy....
Well, I wasn't planning on going, but then last Saturday when Mom, Joe, and I were at that Seafood place, he suggested that I go in all black with a white tie, like the mobsters do/did. So it clicked and I very much wanted to go then. So then the whole week I was messing with Kerrington's and Shelby's heads saying I wasn't going to go, even though they argued against me very strongly. Ahh, such devotion. But I was planning to go, just an hour late, and get my ticket at the door. So that afternoon we went to Hammericks to get my main stuff, then to the mall to get my hair washed and put in a ponytail, and my ear pierced. I've taken worse bullets. So then, I get there, and start hanging with Jay and Kerrington, David and Shelby, Michael and Mary, Brett and Ashley, etc, etc. See, Kerrington and Shelby failed in their part of the deal, but I still went, because I was a nice Godfather. But, no more. I don't know if it was because it was so crappy there, or seeing beauty and the beast there, or the suit affecting my head, or a combination of all three, but it was really giving me a Tony Montana-like personality. Except for that moral code of his, which showed his weaknesses, that was his downfall. If you're still confused, let me elaborate with an example:
In Scarface, Manny was only always after the girls(and helping Tony), but Tony was only concerned with gaining power(and getting Elvira, but I digress). Capische?
Heh, another funny moment...in the room outside the dance floor, there a section there with four chairs. In three of the four chairs, there were people with their dates(yes, both of them on the same chair. EL OH EL), and then there was just me sitting down, being all Don Corleone-like. It was awesome. Also at one point, Jeffrey said he liked my shoes(yeah, my shoes are awesome) and then at another point he asked me "Where's you date??" so I was like "I don't have one!" with a smirk and then just went back to looking all Don Corleone-like. Very, very cool.

Well, watch your backs boys and keep your noses clean(until I establish my business).

"Me, I want what's coming to me."
"Oh, and what's coming to you?"
"The world, chico...and everything in it."

HOOZAH [Oct. 2nd, 2006|10:19 am]

Sorry...its just a phrase I've been using a bunch this weekend...I dunno where I got it from...but yeah...

This was a pretty productive weekend. On BOTH days. I had my regular guitar lesson, then I stuck around until 4:30 for the show that was happening there. So I was outside for pretty much four and a half hours. So yeah, I was cooked. I still am, a little bit. Then we went to Uncle Marc and Aunt Shelly's for a while, until 10-something. And that was pretty much it, just went home and watched Headbangers Ball and played some games until bed.
Sunday...whew...I was planning on just doing my regular Sunday stuff(even though I didn't have school tomorrow), but Alex called and then he came and got me and Sean, and we ate at the Grand Dragon, a Chinese restaurant. Then we went to Advance Auto, the gas station, then the bank. Then we went to CompUSA for a bit(love that place) then Frankie's Fun Park(I REALLY love that place). Then we saw Jet Li's Fearless. Very good movie, but I could've done without the dang subtitles. :/ But, I guess, all for authenticity.
So now, thanks to mom's doctor appointment, I'm not going to school today. Which is good, as I'm going to use this time to get caught up on all of the stuff I need to do before school. Which is pretty much just homework and laundry. And then Scarface tonight!!!!!!! :D

Yep, its true, our crocodile man has passed away. From a stingray. A STINGRAY. One of those WTF moments. Very sad.

Anyways, I wasn't planning on writing a blog tonight, but after reading Scott's, Scott's(yes, I meant to say that twice, as its 2 different Scotts), and Crystal's, I was inspired(so to say) to write a blog about past events. For those that keep track of this livejournal and not my myspace one(all 0 of you), I basically said school sucks a lot of different things. Use your imagination. But yeah, on to cool stuff that doesn't suck:

1)I was in Atlanta attending Dragon*Con all day. It was so awesome, exactly the thing I needed to get away from school and all that crap for awhile. The talk and people there, I swear....if TR High was like that, I'd freakin LOVE school. But no, you guys have to talk about the opposite sex and all other stupid things. Then we went to the Walk of Fame and I actually saw Nicolas Brendan(Xander on Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Kevin Sorbo(Hercules on Hercules:The Legendary Journey and the captain on Andromeda), Traci Lords(former porn star, now sci-fi actress), the legendary George A. Romero, and RAY PARK(Darth Maul on Star Wars - Episode I and Toad in the first X-Men movie). And I actually got a picture with Ray Park and shook his hand! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!! That was just the awesomest thing ever. Oh yeah, and I also saw George Takei, who played Sulu on the original Star Trek. Man, if Will Shatner or Leonard Nimoy was there...that would've been awesome.

2)Nothing else really notable, I just sat back and relaxed and played video games all yesterday. This past week has been busy, with homework up the gumpstump and what not. Seriously...I get at least 2 subjects a night, its freaking nuts. I can't wait until summer.

3)Oh yeah, and this weekend was a THREE DAY WEEKEND! I look foward to those 3 day weekends every month. But you've got months such as November, December, and April where the extended weekends are more than 3 days. And those are too cool.

4)Limewire. Still gettin stuff from there. :hehehe:

5)Girls. I have decided that speaking/thinking about them actually put me in a less than desirable mood(and its supposed to be the other way around >.<), so I try to think of other things if it is at all humanly possible. It works at home, but school...I dunno. I'm also getting pretty sick and tired of people saying "you'll find someone eventually" and other stuff like that. It is now cliched and annoys the crap out of me, now. And I'm about to be more vocal about that, now. >.< Just say "Dude, you're doomed." and you'll be right on target and there's a less chance that I'll snap at you. k? k. ^_____^


And I think that's pretty much it for now. When I feel inspired again, you shall hear more. Until then be safe, stay away from stingrays, have fun, and...sleep alot. Ciao.

So ends my last full week as a free man.... [Aug. 14th, 2006|02:10 pm]
...and I head for the drudgery called 10th grade on Thursday. Seriously, it sucks. The only good thing about it is hanging out with David at the same school once again, but he'll be in the grade below me, of course. :/

Last Saturday(not this past one, but before that) I rented "Black" for Xbox. It was cool at first, but then it got boring and repetitive. Plus the levels are too damn long. But I make it to the second to the last level when I've gotta return it, so I get a better game, LEGO Star Wars, also for Xbox. It is SO COOL!!! Story is a little short, but it still rocks. I guess I could use the rest of my days with it unlocking the extra shizz. But the concept of the game is very original, and keeps it very interesting, all the way through. And it leaves more time for HALO 2!!!!!! I love that game...

Mom and I went to the mall on Saturday, and went to Hot Topic to get the Mortal Kombat shirt, but they didn't have it! :( So we went to the Payless or whatever its called there and I got some Size 13 Shaq shoes. They're great.

And now, pretty much, I'm hanging at the house, doin my regular stuff, enjoying this last fragment of summer before Thursday. So I have finally updated this, happy, Penelope? :p

Today [Jul. 30th, 2006|12:56 am]
[Current Location |The office, my usual place of residence]
[mood |Very happy]
[music |The Long Road - Nickelback]

Dad got here at around 10:00 and hung around while I was getting ready, talking to mom and Joe and what not. Then we left sometime past 11 and got to Phil's Music, then I had my guitar lesson at 11:30. Nothing much, just went over some more theory, did a C Major breakdown and Pentatonic mix, and went over Nickelback's "How You Remind Me" for a little while, then I got out.
We went to Wendy's afterwards, so once again I got a delicious spicy chicken sandwich combo. Yum! :)
Then we saw "John Tucker Must Die". Very awesome movie. Ashanti looks pretty good as a cheerleader...can't wait to see her as "Nurse Betty" in Resident Evil: Extinction...mmm....*clears throat* ANYWAYS...
Then we went to CompUSA and looked around for a while. I saw this Xbox magazine that had an article that had certain moments from the "Halo 3" trailer and Bungie, the company that made it and the first two Halos, commenting on certain parts. Very interesting...
We went to Barnes & Noble, and I read some more of that "City Of Heroes" comic...I wonder if anyone's made a charcter after the main characters portrayed in the book? Hmm...
Afterwards we went the Best Buy and Circuity City. Counter-Strike for Xbox is only $9.99!!!! Curse you, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, for making me wait. :(
Then our last store was Books-A-Million, where I found the Halo graphic novel(OMG!!!!!!!) and the Halo 2 Battle Guide or whatever its called. Looks like its got some info to definitely help me improve my game, in both Halos.
Finally we went to Moe's for dinner and I had a delicious Joey Bag Of Donuts.
Then we came home, dad left to go back to Virginia, I played some Mortal Kombat: Deception, watched Headbangers Ball, played some Halo and Dead Or Alive, now I'm just sitting here. Tomorrow I gotta go to my Uncle's early to mow his front lawn for 20 bucks. Which'll bring me even closer to my MK:Armageddon money. :) Then after that, I can get whatever neat book or game or whatever that catches my eye.
So basically, today was a very good day. I can't wait until I get that used car so I can have more awesome days like this.

Welcome to my first livejournal!! [Jul. 28th, 2006|10:33 pm]

If you're reading this, chances are you're one of my myspace friends and I linked you to this page because writing blogs on myspace is too slow, along with the rest of the site. When I make a new blog, I'll make an entry on a myspace blog linking you to this. Anyways, on to what I've been up to these past few days:
This past Tuesday Alex, Sean, and I went out to Best Buy because "Final Destination 3" came out on DVD that day and I really wanted it. So, we went there and I saw a 2 for 20 bucks sign that said when you buy Final Destination 3 you can get either the first or second movie, both for a cumulative 20 dollars, so I'm thinkin "Sweet, I get one extra DVD" but I checked the price for the other two and its only 10 bucks, so I add up those prices together and discover I can afford all 3. So there you have it, I have all 3 Final Destinations! That was pretty cool. Then we watched the third and first movies before Alex left.
Then the next day, mom and I went to Barnes and Noble to hang out with Uncle Marc and the babies and I ended up getting a complimentary coffee with a frappacino(however you spell it). And before we left I bought a double sided issue of "Ultimate Tales: Spider-Man" which is a fun read.
And then today I got 10 bucks, coming from today and last week's allowance, and I've put it in a certain spot instead of my wallet, so I won't be tempted to spend it, because "Mortal Kombat: Armageddon" is coming for PS2 on October 9 and I wanna get it that day. Then after that, I might save up for a few random games, but I gotta have Armageddon first.
And that's pretty much it for notable stuff happening for this past week. Tomorrow dad and I are going out to some of our favorite stores and watching "John Tucker Must Die", which looks pretty cool.
New blog tomorrow, talking about what happened that day.
