Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!

[Metalheadz]

Hey everybody!

Sorry to hear about your friend's grandmother, Saber. I guess it's hard to lose somebody who was also a friend, who happens to be your friend's grandmother. She's in a much better place now, and she'll be watching over you and her grandson.

I was so excited for school today, I even got up an hour earlier than I usually do for school! I've been anxious all summer to see my friends again every afternoon and to go take on those two AP classes! Haha, I can't even control myself right now. xD Today should be good.

Peace out!

[Josiah]

Hi! I start teaching classes today. Already had my first one, actually. But, since it's the first week and all, I'm basically just going over the syllabus and stuff over and over.

Moi,

Well, yesterday, I returned from my fantastical journeys in Massachusetts!...at one o' clock in the morning...at least my cats were happy to see me.

So, during the course of the past week, I saw one of the newer movies out (Captain America, it was pretty good.), I went to a fair the town I was in has every year (And I finally found out the town's name, which is Marshfield.), I went to Plymouth and saw "the rock" (At least that's what my uncle calls it.), I played Mario Kart Wii and SSBB a whole lot with my cousins, I met some friends of the oldest cousin (She's about the same age as me, her name's Meghan [with an 'H'!].), and they were just about as odd and wacky as my friends from school (and we all watched The Rocky Horror Picture Show and sang/danced along to all the songs). So yeah, I had a pretty good time there. Mainly just relaxing though. Not to much different from what I do back here, at home.

So, I'm happy to be back. Not much going on except waiting for school to start. Yay...

Hi! Looks like that big hurricane my hit Florida over the weekend. They're not quite sure yet where it'll hit or how strong it'll be if it does, but there's a chance. From what I've heard, the area where I am is far enough inland that it doesn't get hit too hard by those kind of things, but we'll see. On a hopefully not related note, I had a dream last night about getting caught in a tornado... Actually, I'm less bothered by the possibility of a hurrican than the fact that, if it hits, it'll probably be on a day when I don't have work. I mean, if a big hurricane is going to hit I'd at least like to get a day off because of it. Instead, I might just be stuck inside on a day I already had off.

Hey.

Dude so all that talk about PVF people meeting up must have invaded my subconscious because last night I dreamed Josiah was coming to my neighborhood to visit a friend, so we decided to meet up, only he accidentally parked his car in my driveway (and blocked all of our cars from leaving, Josiah, you really should park better!) so my dad told me to go find Josiah or else he'd have the car towed. So, I ran to the airport (because it's totally in running distance from my house, and that's clearly where Josiah would be!) and I ran into Josiah and I was like "Hi!" and he was like "Hi!" and we hugged (and you were really tall, Josiah, I dunno if you are in real life) and then I was like "You better move your car!" and he was like "I already did, how do you think I got to the airport?" and, despite the fact that I had just run there, it made total sense, so we decided to head somewhere and chill, only Josiah could no longer find his car, so we rented a 1920-esque automobile. My dad then called me to ask me if I wanted to see a show in California, which I responded eagarly to, and then I woke up. It was quite an adventure!

M'kay, back to hacking Fire Emblem... it's WAY too much fun to see my custom portraits in the game...

[Metalheadz]

Hi! Interesting dream, Saber!

Did anybody on the east coast of the US feel that earthquake today? It gave me the chills, along with everyone else at school!

Today was a better day at school. More of my friends are in my B Block day classes than my A Block. I'm so looking forward to the football game on Friday. This should be a pretty legit week.

Peace out!

[PoisonWing14]

Moi,

Arg...I didn't feel the earthquake because I was asleep...although I did have a very weird dream last night. The only way I can describe it is with an answer to this question: "What would you get if you combined Pokemon and Katamari?". Answer: last night's dream.

Yeah...nothing much going on today. Just enjoying my last two weeks of summer vactaion.

Just got myself a phone that runs Android. I need suggestions on useful/time killing(but battery friendly)/free apps. Apps relevant to otaku interests are a bonus.

[Kaida]

Greetings All!

So wedding was 3 days ago! Yay! I've finally had time to post.
I've been going virtually none stop for the past 4 days and one of then i barly touched the lappy because i didn't want to. Except for when robby and I were cuddling on the sofa watching One Piece.

I'll post some of the photos when I have them. Should be in the next couple weeks ^_^

And fluffy budgie!

[Metalheadz]

Congratulations, Kaida! I'm happy for you! I'm excited to see the pictures, too.

[Silver]

Cuddling on the couch watching One Piece... oh, you're a lucky one, you are. Congratulations!

Kaida gets to cuddle and watch One Piece... Stevenson gets to read it along with his girlfriend... Collyyy, get caught up alreadyyy...! You still haven't even read the first six volumes I gave you almost two years ago, have you? Geez...

Hi! Android aps, eh? Well, games in general aren't particularily battery friendly but as long as you charge your phone every night and don't spend half the day playing you'll probably be ok. Anyway, here's my favorite aps in alphabetical order.

Angry Birds (regular, Seasons, and Rio): I think Angry Birds is highly overrated, but it's still a good way to kill a few minutes here and there, has tons of levels, and it's free (if you don't mind ads).
Convert Pad: Not a game, but great if you want convert between pretty much any forms of measurement.
Dentaku Girl: A calculater, only a lot more moe than the one that comes with your phone.
Hot Springs Story: This one costs two or three dollars, but it's a neat little sim game where you get to build and run your own Japanese onsen. There's a couple other games in the series (Game Dev Story and one other one) but I haven't played them yet.
Imaginary Range: An interactive comic book from Square Enix. Not a lot of replay value, but pretty cool.
Ringdroid: Makes it easy to edit your own music and assign it as a ringtone (a feature many phone companies tend to hide so you'll buy ringtones from them).
Peggle: You'll need to get this off the Amazon Ap Store ap (which can be gotten off Amazon's web site) and it's not free, but it's a great casual game and pretty much identical to the PC version.
Plants vs. Zombies: One of the best casual games ever. Once again, it's only on Amazon ap store, isn't free, and is virtually identical to the PC version.
Replica Island: A NES / SNES style platformer. Not amazing, but pretty good for a free game.
Symphony of Eternity: Another Amazon ap store exclusive. It's an old fashioned early SNES style JRPG. It's no Final Fantasy, and some of the sprites can be pretty small on the phone screen, but I'm liking it so far.

[Siranae]

Yay Kaida! I'm so happy for you! :D Also, that's just so cute. The One Piece thing.

Man, I haven't been able to go on the internet either. I thought that since I was going to college a week before classes there'd be a lot of downtime, but I've been running all over the place. Oh wait I never did tell you guys I went to college did I? Well, I did. It's fun now, but once classes start people have said we're going to be buried in work.

And yeah that earthquake too. To be honest, I didn't even know it was happening.
Okay so this is what happened. We had this competition thing where we were put into groups and had to find these places in and around campus, listen to a presentation or something there, and get our "Passport" stamped. We had a good number of locations to go to and only a few hours to do it. Not to mention we had to finish in the group we started in so I had to keep herding the group back together. So I lost my passport and ran all around campus looking for it. I found it, then sprinted to this building my group had gone to while I was searching, ran up a few flights of stairs, got the stamp, and then went to run down the stairs. While I was running I heard a noise, then the elevator opened with no one inside it. Then I heard people screaming and laughing, so I thought that some group had broken the elevator and was now running down the stairs. Then a bunch of people flew past me, which I thought was the responsible group.

tl:dr, I thought the earthquake was a bunch of people running down the staircase I was in.

This is the first I've been on in a while. Sorry about the slowdown in Pokemon Blank. I didn't even have Photoshop until a couple days ago. But I'm not gonna stop it. I just gotta wait until classes start and I develop some kind of schedule.

And yes Plants vs. Zombies is an amazing game. I don't think I ever said this, but thanks Josiah for recommending it!

[Zoras]

Kunichiwa. and i feel your pain, Siranae. the internet at the school i'm going keeps going on and off, on and off, as well as slowing down to one page per 10 minutes during computer programming.

now the earthquake, i didn't find out about till last night. What some people are saying about it I can hardly believe, about "all the residents of Arlington turning over". I just think it's the mole people finally deciding to come up here.

[grassaquilUV]

Ok, haven't read this for awhile, so...

Congratulations Kaida, good luck to you and have a long and happy marraige
Now, Earthquake, Yeah, I didn't even know one had happened until it was reported on the news that day, and now last, but not least, School.

Hooray for the purely summeristic view of Canadian eduation!
What I mean is I just got my official schedule two days ago, and I don't have school for another 13 days. Yippie! Still Summer for me!
