Bye.

Hey.

I am in a very good mood right now. I just checked my Math grade online and found that I got a 97/100 on the Ch. 9 Test. I'm really happy because this gives me confidence that I can do much better in all other subjects in School. Now my Math grade has been pulled up to an A-, which seems pretty good to me. Right now I do not have any C's at all and hopefully I can pull all my B-'s, B's, and B+'s up to A's. For my English class, I have been reading To Kill a Mockingbird. I read a little a couple years ago and did not find it very interesting, but reading it now, I really enjoy it and find it to be a emotional and compelling novel. The author, really captured the mood of the the time period and showed me the reality of racism and prejudice against Negroes. In Art, we are now using water colors. It is pretty fun, but sadly, I messed up on one coloring assignment because my colors bled into each other and now it looks like a total mess. I hope my grade won't be too bad due to that assignment. In P.E. I guess our unit right now is Whomp Ball. I don't really like it due to several reasons. First of all, I'm not very skilled at batting, but luckily I haven't missed one hit yet. I get embarrassed when I screw up for the team and I hate playing outfield because I am not very sure if I can catch the ball or not, especially if it is a fly ball. Second, the teams are usually one-sided and we have had the same teams for two times already. Lastly, Michael Gunthrey is one crazy motherfucker. When he hits the ball, he throws the bat all the way back to the batting line and almost hits other people. He also screams, whines, and bitches about the team messing up. He can't stop criticizing other people although he himself is not very good at it either. But hey, I can't blame the poor guy. He's "special."

Surprisingly, I actually started playing MS Private Servers again, but only casually and to try out the Pirate class. I tried both the Gunslinger and Brawler on different servers and I find that I don't enjoy the Gunslinger very much because it's pretty much exactly the same as the Bowman. The only aspect that I like about them is that they can shoot while they are in the air. No more jump-shooting! On the other hand, I enjoy Brawlers a lot more due to their unique combos and interesting abilities. Right now my Brawler is level 40, but I can't find better Knuckles! I'm still using the level 30 one...which sucks. I have also been playing Rock Band 2! I love that game so much. RB2 is so much better than Guitar Hero. The overall feel and look of the game is just more simplistic and mature. I also believe that the setlist is just slightly better than World Tour's. I'm currently enjoying Expert Guitar, Medium Drums, and Medium Vox. One thing that I need to work on is Alt-Strumming. Whenever there is a long stream of notes I mostly miss sometime during the middle of the continuous notes and mess up my combo. I cannot wait for the Rock Band: Beatles! ..and also GH:Metallica I guess :)...and GH: Greatest Hits :)

Wow that was a semi-long post. I'm off to eat dinner and play some Table Tennis to get ready for the tournament in Sacramento in two weeks. See you and have a nice day.

You know what? Fuck you, and you, and most of all..YOU! That's right you little fuckers. You know who you are, the shitbags who walk around acting like a bunch of faggots. And YOU, fuck you and your faggot-ass club. Fuck you for being such a fucking smart-ass. I am sick and tired of your bullshit attitude and you're not even funny, you fucking fat-ass. Fuck you and your little church crew. You guys are full of shit and not even Christian, so fuck you and go eat some Kimchee you GOOK! One day I will take a gun, shove it up your ass, take another gun, shove it in your mouth, and then I will shoot until your guts start dripping out and you cry for your hoe for a mother. That's right, who's the short kid now? Go suck a dick and shut the fuck up. Thanks.

Tired

I am currently too lazy to blog anything. Sorry.

Ok..

Phew...just got done studying for 3.5 hours for Chemistry. I still have lots of things to do including homework. I don't understand. Why do teachers still assign homework when the following week is Finals? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Well, I finally got my laptop back. I was arguing with my Mom over something that had nothing to do with the laptop and then she just said, "Ok I don't care anymore..you can do whatever you want and I don't care." She always says this when she gets mad at me so I know she doesn't mean it, but then she just walked into my room, stood there for a few seconds and dropped my laptop onto the floor. I was really confused..so I just accepted it and currently I am planning on using it tomorrow again when the mood in the house calms down a bit.

Stop. Just Stop.

I'm sick and tired of everyone talking/caring about Ariel so much.

What the fuck happened to caring about the "average" player?
You all are fucking pathetic.
Fuck you.

What a week...

Damn. This week really has been really hectic and full of confusion. First of all, UGO/Hearst bought 1UP. This resulted in the closing of EGM, 1UP Podcasts (including the 1UP Show), and 44 employees laid off (including many long-time 1UP veterans). I was filled with anger at first, but when I realized that Ziff Davis was losing money rapidly, I figured that it was a good thing for them in the long run. It was really a shock to many people, including me. What made 1UP unique and special is now mostly gone. I hate it when people say that 1UP will be the same. Face it, it won't be. The good news is that most of the laid off staff got to work on new podcasts/thoughts for the future. Here's a list of the sites/podcasts.

www.talkingorange.com - Ryan and Matt's new site! They said that they are still making video podcasts!

www.eat-sleep-game.com - Nick, Anthony, Philip, and Arthur Gies's new site! Rebel FM is now LIVE!

www.geekbox.net - Ryan Scott's site! He will be hosting another podcast!

Please support them!

Well, onto my life. I've had so many presentations and projects due this week, and finals are coming up right around corner. I have so many borderline grades...two C+'s, two B-'s. It's really frightening to think of what my grades will become after the final if I don't study. Looks like I actually have to try this year. I gave my English speech yesterday. It was under the time limit, but I got a 94% on it (320/340) so I'm happy, and I gave my Spanish presentation today. I think we did pretty well on it. So now I only have one more presentation left! An easy (hopefully) History project. Oh..but I also have a huge Math review test tomorrow. 50% of my grade...even more than finals which is 20%. Ugh..I forgot so much material..looks like I have study like crazy tonight. We are doing (and almost done) Table Tennis in P.E.! Haha! It's the most fun I had in P.E. this year besides Ultimate Frisbee.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time for some gaming :) Version 6.58 for DoTA just came out! New Remakes of Dirge and Storm Spirit! New Visuals! Wow! This update has been extremely fun and well done. Good job IceFrog. (BTW IceFrog has a blog now...it's at www.icefrog.com) I haven't played in about a month though..so I really need to brush up my skills again.

Alright this is all for now..I've got to be a nerd and study study study and work work work.

A Sad Day Indeed..

R.I.P.
EGM, 1up Podcasts, and 1up Show

To all of the excellent employees who have been laid off,
Best of luck to you guys.
You were the best of the best of the business
And no one..I repeat NO ONE can ever replace you.
Have a safe & quick recovery and continue to thrive and do well!

Fuck School

Wow. I fucking hate the week(s) before Finals. It's always so busy and this year I have so many speeches and projects to do...which are all very important to my grade. Long story short, I'm going to be fucking busy until the end of the next two weeks...I have a Spanish project/speech, English group project/speech, History, project..

and of course...

FINALS.
FUCK!

Sigh..

Happy New Year Everyone!
2009!

Well. Winter Break is officially over. How depressing. I really enjoyed my time in Las Vegas (even though I have tons of makeup work and quizzes/tests) and the 2 weeks at home (although my dad was home almost all of the two weeks). Today was not that bad. I didn't fall asleep and I turned in all my makeup work! But I still have to make-up my Math quiz and two Spanish quizzes. It was so cold during P.E. today even though we were inside. I can't believe it's still raining over these past weeks. So what did you guys get for Christmas? I got an iTouch Case, Clothes, Graphing Calculator, iHome, and Call of Duty: World At War. The iTouch Case is really nice, but it costs a lot! I'm using and enjoying the iHome and the clothes were pretty nice. CoD:WaW is really fun and is the best FPS on the Wii right now! I'm pleasantly surprised at how it turned out and I'm addicted to the immersive multiplayer! I love how they are using the same mechanics of CoD4. I am currently Level 24 and I'm not too shabby :). Although I am just sick of people using Martydrom and overpowered weapons. Due to the sheer amount of people who use Martydrom, I am also using it now in order to get back at them. Today I got my highest kill streak yet! A record of 23 kills in a row thanks to the dogs who got me a total of 12 kills :). Lets see..my favorite maps are Castle and Dome and my least favorite is Makin and Upheaval. I'm dissapointed that the Wii version does not have Online Co-op and Nazi Zombies, but overall it is a wonderful game for the Wii. This game looks great considering that it is on the Wii. Now on the subject of iTouch, I have updated to 2.2 firmware and jailbroke it a second time. It seems to run faster and I'm trying to manage the number of games I install on it. I finally played SimCity and 7CitiesTD! Both are great games. Sim City can hold you on for hours and hours. The only thing that turns me off is the Mass Transportation bug. The Sims won't ride my trains! 7 Cities TD brings a new kind of depth to iTouch TD Games. Its complex and detailed mechanics really make this an amazing game, but it's hard! Alright I have to go finish my homework..I have a lot tonight :(. Cya!
