Yes, thats what I’m talking about, the LHS Semi-Formal. Last Saturday night I was so fortunate enough to attend this event with many of my close friends. When I first walked in, well, there were a lot of beautiful people. I mean I have to give us white-upper middle class people credit, when the time calls for us to look nice; we look snazzy. However it would appear that if you looked a random girl’s hair and guessed the opposite of whatever the style/color they had at that point, that would be their natural hair. As for the men, you all looked nice from what I heard, but my attention was to say the least, elsewhere. As for me, I decided on a white oxford under a blue sweater recommended by my good friend Brian. I thought I looked ultra-mega preppy, but that was the goal so no worries. So the semi transpired like any old regular dance but with much more pazzaz. The lights and decorations added a fancy element to the situation. Beyond that, the activities for the night were hanging out with friends, dancing with John, and dancing with girls, so no matter which way you spin it this guy was gonna have fun. About halfway through the dance a circle started forming, as it does every time, and just like the time before it, the same people who can’t dance decided to draw attention to ability to suck major balls. Now, I’m not preaching that I can dance, but for the love of all that is good, don’t try to sell me that pretending your a lobster, or even a jumping lobster was, or ever will be dancing; never mind a way to preserve your dignity. Besides that the semi was as fun as I had hoped and if you didn’t come this year, for whatever reason, come to the one next year; if you have the right attitude your bound to have fun.
Well, I happen to be a big fan of the Guitar Hero series. The whole concept of playing your favorite songs, and requiring some skill and conditioning to play, but not the years of training it takes to get good enough to actually play them on a real guitar. Guitar Hero 2 was more than exceptional with perfect song selections like Message in a Bottle and Sweet Child O’ Mine. The advancement in difficulty made you feel that you had gained some skill, but it wasn’t impossible to make the leap. From Hard mode to Expert mode, I found was my biggest hump. But other than that minor detail, the game is all around good. But, why talk about Guitar Hero now? Well, because GH3 game out, silly. And I got it for my Nintendo Wii (Wii4everbizatch). It is basically more of the same, if you liked the 2nd one you’ll like this installment. Continuing with great songs ranging from Before I Forget by Slipknot to Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benatar, you’ll find at least a few songs that will tickle your fancy. I personally like the majority of the song list. The only, real new feature is the guitar battles. In career mode you battle off with famous guitarist such as Tom Morello and Slash by gaining “attacks” that substitute in for star power. The attacks vary from overcharging their amp to breaking their strings. It is a neat concept, but isn’t performed really well where it should of been, multiplayer. The pro-face off mode remains the best. The battle mode itself, is too lethal to your opponent. If you get a certain attack your other player will die far too easily and therefore making the mode, fairly boring. Overall this game gets a B for being just as good as it’s predecessor.
One night, Sam and I came up with a list of ten items. Each item was a goal we want to achieve before we graduate. I’ve narrowed it down to 5 with some help from Brian. Our goals might seem impossible, but that doesn’t mean we won’t work towards them.
Goals
Make an RPG with a decent storyline and gameplay.
Learn and play Beast and the Harlot at a school concert.
Now that he realizes hes going to lose the election with Mike Huckabee to the Democrats, Chuck Norris is back to owning ninjas. This is a math project I am currently doing. I am working with 4 rather stupid girls, or they at least pretend to be, and I need to make my section of the project as manly as possible. We had to rewrite and solve problems. The first was originally about the CN Tower in Toronto, and the second was a lighthouse and a boat. I also had to make the font as many las possible.
Once a year, Chuck Norris takes a break from owning ninjas. During these short moments in which he allows the ninjas a chance to run, his 553m biceps cast a 1100m shadow. At what angle is the sun running from Chuck Norris?
tan x = 553/1100
tan-1(553/1100) =x
x = 26.69°
Chuck Norris returns to his work and spots a ninja in the water from a beach house pagoda. The angle of depression from Chuck Norris’s 80′ perch to his next victim is 0° 42′. How many miles must Chuck Norris swim to round house kick this ninja? Be sure to take into account that Chuck Norris does not get wet when he swims, the water gets Chuck Norrised.
tan .7 = 80/x
x = 80 / tan .7
x = 6547.2
x / 5280 = 1.24 Miles ~ 43 second swim for Chuck Norris.
Last night I succumbed to my vows and bought World of Warcraft. It had been about 6 months since I played. I stopped because my brother began paying entirely for our shared account, which was fine with me. So I go to my local GameStop.
Today, a day later, I tried to upgrade my 10 day trial account to full using the authentication key. The first thing I notice when I open the box is a small piece of computer paper, ripped on 2 sides with mysterious number and letter combinations. I think nothing of it and then when I look for the CDs I find them in poorly made pouches. I now realize that there was only 4. World of Warcraft is 6 discs.
Anyways, I inputed the Key and was told it had already been used. I called Blizzard Billing, and was told they could not help me. However, knowing it probably wasn’t their fault, I wasn’t upset because they really are very nice. I showered, threw on some Abercrombie And Fitch and was on my way.
I calmly explained to Brandon, as I found his name was on the receipt. I handed him the small paper and after a moment he said to a co-worker – Hey Ian, isn’t this your ScreenName? Upon hearing my story Ian quickly threw the paper away and told Brandon to mark it defective and give me a new copy. I’ve never seen such a nervous employee. I don’t know how Ian left his SN in there, but he did…. Bastard.
We plan on calling the manager to let him know what happened so he/she can keep a closer eye on him.
Hey, I’m the new writer on this sweet blog, just thought I’d start out with a video I found Stumbling.
The video’s description tells us that this guy is a master escapist, running from these thugs. At first I thought it was going to just be some guy being surrounded and beating the thugs up…but it turns out I was quite wrong. This guy is amazing, and the video totally captured my undivided attention. My dream is to to be able to do some of the things he can..
Epic Fail. I was at American Eagle last night scoping out the new AE season. I had issues walking on the girls side. Oh my god. I follow fashion, I know what items are called. I wasn’t able to name half of the things on the racks. It was the worst display I have ever seen in any store. Ladies, hit Old Navy before AE. Anyways, heres some things I didn’t know how to respond to….This white thing is a “Twilight Hoodie”, whatever the hell that means. With or without the name it’s ugly. The color isn’t good and besides that, the sleeveless hoodie will never be in. Second, Sweaters were the item of the winter season. Lets not drag it into Spring. And besides, sweaters should not have hoods. Abomination.
I was talking to my G Period History Fashion Buddy today, and she said after seeing American Eagle’s spring season she considered buying boys clothes. I know I would. The mens clothes isn’t shockingly good, but it’s still better. The only complaint I really have is that they changed the eagle embroidery on the polos to a patch.
Until next time, Remember. Everyone should have their own style and be the best at it, but more importantly. Crazy is not a style.
Well, my counterpart Mr. Brian introduced me to this nifty little game making tool called RPG maker XP. It basically allows you to make your own RPG’s (ex: Pokemon, Final Fantasy etc.) without the need of complicated coding! Now, if your anything like me, you’d suck at coding. You’ll suck so bad that even though you love your video games so much and you have a million ideas as to what a cool game would be, it’s just too damn hard to learn the lines of commands, variables and whatnot to actually use them. But with a little patience and getting used to the fairly user interface of RPG Maker XP you’ll be able to put those awesome ideas into action! Now if that ain’t nifty I don’t know what is. But the one thing I love about this tool is that it is ENTIRELY customizable. You can change, close to literally, anything. The database of images, sounds, and whatnot is fairly large, and if none of those choices tickle your fancy you can upload your own! And for those of you that can program, you can edit the engine to get whatever result you want. So, basically, the possibilities and uniqueness of your game is entirely based on how much time, effort you put into it. If at the very least, it’s DAMN fun to mess around with.
Ohh the good old days. If you’re a geek and you’ve had a computer since you were young, or you’re just old, you remember Ski Free. For those of you that need a memory jog, think 16 bit graphics. You’re a skier going down a mountain only to be eaten by some sort of snow monster. I came across “The Most Officialest” homepage for the game, which appears to be maintained by the original coder of SkiFree, who wanted it to be “WinSki.” Personally, I think WinSki would have been better, but let’s be realistic, Microsoft is stupid. The download link from his site is here and his site is here. The download link is for a 32 bit version so it runs properly on our fancy high tech stuff. Sometimes the original 16 bit, which is also available for download free on his site, doesn’t work properly on new computers.
Well the Winter Clothes have hit the clearance racks, and if you’re metro you were out there on The 26th duking it out for your share of it. I went to Abercrombie and Fitch hoping to get some cheap clothes, but I was weak and had
to get the new seasons light sweatshirt. I was however able to get a green Snow Drift sweater from American Eagle along with some Corduroy pants for only $20 each. It makes a nice outfit. So if you haven’t hit the mall yet, I would check your favorite stores websites for any clearance that might be left. There should be plenty. Good luck.
