I've never been grounded really so I can't really sympathize and compare old times, but here's a fun little story! My sister and I were in a fight once and she decided it'd be cool to beat me with the vacuum cleaner. Good times.

Wow, Nab... that must have sucked.

^Pun completely intended
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

I don't know about being beaten with a vacuum cleaner, But I know i made my little sister scared of it by telling her that it'd suck her up if she got to close to it... She's grown out of that now though...

Beaten with a vaccum cleaner... wow. That's absolutely awful when you think of the reality of it, but there was something in the way I read that that kinda made me laugh a little.

Now I feel like a bad person... cuz I laughed at your pain... and that's bad.

Oh don't worry, I laugh about it now too! I'm just glad I had a bunk bed at the time, I avoided her by keeping on the top bunk until my mom came (we were both really little then).

Sometimes those can be funny. Sometimes just stupid. But that's what you get with funny video shows.

Hey, before I forget, I'mma gonna be gone next week.

Leaving Friday after skool (well, after me softball game which is after skool, so I'm leaving direct from there. We're playing one of the other hardest teams in the leauge. Ugh.), and I'll be gone for...a full week, I think? Well, I'll probably manage to get on the computer there a few times, but not much. Visiting relatives in Virginia, as I do every April break.

Hey, and it's approximatly my yearaversery (anniversary means one year... I can make my own words if I want to!) here! I remember that I signed up a couple weeks before leaving for Virginia. Whoo.
May the Triforce be with you.

Playing one of the hardest teams in the league? Good luck! And remember it's the fun of the game that counts. Of course sometimes winning can be fun. So I hope that's the kind of fun you have.

Yeah.. I THINK that made sense.. It did to me ayway^^

I'm going to California. We're sending off my sister to China, and that's the rendezvous point for the group she's going with. Unless the hotel has wireless, I might be off the internet for a while.

Have fun, Poik. Is your sister going on a tour or a mission or something like that, or does she have a job there?
