What Can I Say?

What can I say when
it's always one thing then
another?


Yeah I don't know what that up there ^^^ is.
I tried to write more rhyming stuff but it sounded really dumb, so I stopped. So yeah, I felt compelled to write something, but when I clicked New Post, I lost it completely. I think maybe I had an idea what I was going to write, but it's gone now. Now I just think I should update...

Oh here's a fun idea. How about you people comment/IM/text/whatever and tell me what you think I should post about. It can be anything within a certain amount of reason, so go crazy and have fun. Just let me know the topic and if you want me to be serious or not! So please, DO TELL!

DEATH AND ALL HIS FRIENDS

That's right, kiddies. Coldplay.
What about Coldplay, you ask? They're more than good, they're great!
But that's just extra. What I really have to say follows.

I am seeing Coldplay in concert on Halloween in DC. How fun.

Yeah, I really don't know what to say now. I don't want to brag because that's no fun, and I don't want to talk about how excited I am because I may as well brag. So I'm just going to end it there. Lemme know if you wanna chat sometime.

Onomatopeia & Shmorgasbord

In my world that means a bunch of random stuff. Appropriate title, no?

I have a school orientation thing Thursday. Bleh. School starts, as I said, the same day as SA, Sep. 2.

Today I talked with some people who are new to my church. Thank goodness there's actually someone else out there who knows things about language. They understand the similarities and differences, etc. etc. and all that jazz.

I need to buy a guitar. I don't know what to get though. If ANYBODY knows anything about buying a guitar *coughTomcough*, talk to me, cuz I've got questions and whatnot!

I'm nervous for school. I mean granted everyone is usually nervous before school, new or not, but this is crazy. New school, new friends, new curriculum/academic program, new city, new ways to get to school. Not really fun. But enough of that bad talk.


So, I've taken some new pictures of myself and some other cool pics! And, they would be here except the*twitch*friggin........cord*twitchtwictch*..............is..............MIIIIIIIIISSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!!! GAH! I can't upload any pics from my camera until I either A) find it B) replace it or C) buy a cardreader.
NOTICE: IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THE WHEREABOUTS OF A CORD YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I'M COUNTING ON YOU PEOPLE TO FIND IT!

I See Skies of Blue, Everything else too

No red roses this time. Just blue.

I made my trip to Pittsburgh. Now I'm really gloomy. Not only are my friends in Pittsburgh, now my own brother is there too. Why did I move?

Poo. School is gonna suck. I have some thing a week from today I have to go to, then school starts Sep. 2. Same as all you. Stupid school, why did you have to go all seasonist and prejudice against warm, happy seasons? Why did you enslave summer and make it not unending?

I think my eyes have stopped picking up any other color besides blue. Or maybe my brain is malfunctioning and receives everything as a shade of blue. Or maybe everything really is blue. Whichever one it is, it's making me sad.

I miss my friends, I miss Vaughn, I miss spending time with real people in person, I miss being happy. I miss the world.

C-C-COLLEGE?!

Wait...what? You're leaving for college, Vaughn?! That's...that's...that's not possible! Gah...!

So bleh. Vaughn is leaving for college and its starting to sink in...He leaves tomorrow, then the rest of us follow on Monday to help him. Then that's it...

But moving on. I think it's time I got a scanner. I've decided to start sketching when I have the time, and I would love to start putting them up somewhere...ah well.

I don't have much else to say, sorry. Short post, but I'll see some of you Monday. W00t.

You did? From whom?

Previous line: SO I HEARD YOU LIEK MUDKIPS

Just kidding. It was actually: So, I heard that you're coming here [Pittsburgh] on Monday?

The answer is yes, my friend. I'M COMING UP TO PITTSBURGH! I think it'll be Monday when I come up, so make sure you're home!

So yeah, I learned how to bike to my new school. No more 30 minute car ride down to SA, just a five to ten minute bike ride and BAM! I'm at school. W00t.

So...Vaughn's leaving for college soon. I'm gonna miss him...I hope I get to see him during holidays and stuff! Ugh it still hasn't really sunk in yet either. Daaaang this is gonna be tough.

Doreen Gentzler: In other news, a teenage boy, Garret Wallace, continues to have a residual cough. Experts believe the cause of this prolonged cough past illness is the result of lack of sleep and decrease in oxygen intake due to non-regular fluticasone propionate inhalance. Fluticasone propionate, otherwise known by the product name Flovent HFA, is Garret's twice-daily preventative inhaler, and it has been reported in recent times he has failed to use it as prescribed by his doctor.

Jim Vance: It should be noted that Garret's current medical status is due to his own disregard of his health. Our reports indicate that, within the past week or longer, he has been intentionally keeping himself awake at late hours despite warnings from his parents. In addition, Garret has been rather lethargic in recent days due to his previous illness, but now continues to stay in this state in disregard of the health implications of such a life. We can only hope that we will see a change in Garret's attitude about himself and his health in days to come.

Doreen: Absolutely, Jim. We send our best wishes to you, Garret.

Jim: Yes we do. That was News4 at 11; up next is Brian Williams with the Nightly News. Godspeed, Garret.

A Full Week??

Daaaaaaamn.

Uh oh...it's 11:54. I have 6 minutes to finish this so that it is ONE WEEK. So here I go.

The past week hasn't been great. I've been sick. Not fun. 11:55. I've still got a cough but I'm doing much better. Hooray hooray.

I've been watching the Olympics. They're awesome! If you aren't already watching them, WATCH BABY WATCH! This is the first time I've ever *11:56* cared to watch past the opening ceremony (which was SUH-WEET!) so I'm all fired up about 'em. So many world records being broken, and Michael Phelps is AWESOME MAN! I'm so psyched to see how he does with his super-Olympian goal thing. 11:57.

So yeah 2 minutes remaining till the day is up. GAH HURRYING.

New Star Wars movie coming out. It's cartoonish, not so cool, but its Star Wars so I have to watch it! Comes out Friday the 15th and I will BE THERE! 11:58 ONE MINUTE.

When it turns to the next minute Ima have to hurry so BLAAAAH. I can't think of much else to say so, yeah...just wasting time here.

How is everyone? You likin' PA? Pittsburgh cool enough for you? Well, I think some of you should *11:59* come on down! But that's all I can say for now. Hope you see me soon (heh heh heh...)


Th-th-th-th-THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

Just when you thought it was safe...

WE'RE BAAAAAACK.

So yeah, the cabin we rented was AWESOME! As I said, we drove 8 hours the first day and 4 the next to get there. First we stopped by our cousins' house which is pretty sweet. That's where we met up with the grandparents and all (10 of us total). And I met the family bird which I didn't know existed! COOL.

So from there we drove our little caravan an hour to the cabin, which was large and very cool. I wish I could live there...All the kids and Vaughn stayed down in the basement, boys (Vaughn, Josh 12, Aaron 14, myself) in one room and the only girl (Hannah 12) in the other (large cabin, large basement).

The first day we didn't do much but play Super Smash Bros. Brawl and hide and seek. We just hung out, and then we had a picnic in Callaway Gardens. Callaway Gardens is pretty cool. I've been there before, and they've got a bunch of things to do. Check it out sometime.

So now it's Day 2, and it's time for us to celebrate our grandparents' 50th anniversary (IMPRESSIVE!). We went back to Callaway Gardens and swam in the man-made lake for 20 minutes or so, then we drove around looking at houses and stuff. Then the real celebration started. We all got nicer clothes on and went to this fancy restaurant with cool food. Nice place! Vaughn took pictures with this AMAZING lens he rented, and it was just an awesome place. Nice food, awesome setting outside.

When we got home from the restaurant, we had a family celebration. Josh and Aaron performed a funny rhyme thing, my uncle Vaughn played had written his parents a song, my aunt Angie and my mom wrote letters to them, my dad shared some memories, and Vaughn and I each wrote them a note. In the end, my mom presented a scrapbook that she had been working on. The week before she emailed a bunch of my grandparents' friends and family and had them write congrats letters. She put them all in the scrapbook and really surprised her parents. Awesome! Oh and we had cake.

The cousins and I did manage to have a lot of fun. The twins, Hannah and Josh each came up with a personal high five with me, which they LOVED. All of us together played Brawl on the Wii, and we played SO MUCH hide and seek, which was pretty fun given the size of the cabin. I was the bomb at that. I hid cramped under a sink, and in dark, tight spots. I was the master. Then Aaron got out Guitar Hero 3. I was expecting him to be pretty decent, but not amazing or anything considering he's not too good at other video games. And then he started playing. He went straight to Expert and immediately impressed EVERYONE IN THE CABIN with his extreme skill. It was almost inhuman. SCARY GOOD. He blew us all away. Just wow. COOOOOOL.

Oooooooook, well now that I've absolutely filled your heads with unnecessary family junk, I'll talk about the DUN DUN DUN xxx-Ride Home-xxx. We decided we were going to do all 12 hours in one day, which really isn't too bad considering we left at 11:00 or so. We were making decent progress, but then we stopped at a mall for food for an hour. Then we stopped again like 3 hours later, then again after that. We kept losing time everywhere! We even stopped at a Target and shopped a little. Not good. By the time we got home, it was 2 in the morning and we were all bored and TIRED. BLEEEEEEEH. I'm STILL tired now. Yuck.

Well, now I'm back and the next trip isn't until the end of the month when I COME UP TO PITTSBURGH! YEAH MAN! I'M COMING UP! W0000000T!

So yeah...see ya.
