November Huh.

It’s November guys,  and I can say that I’m fairly scared and excited at the same time. My time is slipping away from me but that’s okay because the content of my time has not changed. I’m actually fairly excited to be getting on with the last bit of the semester, and I can’t wait to do my final scene in Acting I, it’s gonna be fun. Now let me tell you about my week.

Monday: God, is any Monday ever eventful, maybe I just can’t remember because I spend the entire day in a half-awake state…

Tuesday: This week we had a clean the house blitz because we had an insurance guy that was going to come over and we had to make everything shiny. So more or less I spent the entire day cleaning the house, most of it by myself. On the plus side we did get rid of those big noisy machines.

Wednesday: Wednesday was a bit of fun actually, I just sort of did what I did and spent nearly no time doing nothing, it was surprisingly refreshing to get out and do stuff.

Thursday: I think this was basically the one day this week I actually had to relax, and also to buy twinkies.

Friday: Film club meeting, those are always fun, also I spent the night at a friend’s house because of a 48-hour film challenge. We were the writing crew so I had to stay there and write.

Saturday: After a total lack of communication and no viable locations to shoot, we had to abandon our 48-hour project. It made me sad, on top of that I managed to explode a can of my dad’s favorite drink. I just had a bad day Saturday, but at least the new ‘Welcome to Nightvale’ was out.

Sunday: Ah this day was truly interesting, mostly I spent it playing Terraria, as I do most Sundays. But I also managed to watch Iron man 2 and Independence Day. Oh yeah and I also fixed a toilet.

Let me just tell you guys that it is not fun for a family of 8 to be sharing one bathroom, it sucks. I hope the repair guy gets out here soon. Anyways, here’s to hoping you’re having a better time than me right now.

Good luck guys

I’m Late Again.

I’m late in getting this out, mostly because I was just too sick to post anything last night. My brother brought home the cold virus and now it’s got me, so basically I’m not even at school today because I’m really sick. I greatly dislike being sick, but I don’t want to bore you with that so I’ll just give you the weekly rundown.

Monday: My COM100 Class was cancelled for the day, also we wrote, practiced, and produced a 1 minute play in about 2 hours, that was fun.

Tuesday: A very long day, mostly filled with Terraria, but also a little bit of Legend of Korra and Mystery Inc., so basically I did nothing productive.

Wednesday: Pop quiz, oh joy.

Thursday: Another long day that I did basically nothing on, other than clean up around the house.

Friday: Did I travel around the world? It sure felt like it. I went down to GCU to meet with their Film club “Digital Film Production”, then we waited around for like 2 hours for my brother to get out of class so he could take us home. Then we went suit shopping, and then I finally had time to relax.

Saturday: Another day of cleaning up the house, also having to watch my little brother and make sure he does the dishes.

Sunday: I was sick, I didn’t do anything.

So my week was mostly bland, Except on Friday, but life goes how life goes. Now I’m gonna go drink some hot tea and try to get rid of this stupid cold.

Good luck guys

Manic Monday.

Hey-o, how it going folks, let me tell you that I just had an awesome weekend. My week wasn’t that bad either, I actually had a fairly interesting week this week, let me break it down.

Monday, Nothing too interesting, buffering excitement and many hours subscribing to random mods in the L4D2 steam workshop. That and my Into to technical theater class got a bunch of girls.

Tuesday, This was THE big day this week, this was the day I’d been waiting over half a year for. Terraria 1.2 came out on Tuesday, and it was definitely worth all the hype.

Wednesday, not much changed from a normal Wednesday, other than that I spent my spare time playing 1.2

Thursday, This day I tried to contact my best friend to see if he was going to be coming over on Friday, but no one answered the phone, so I played 1.2

Friday, Ah what a fun day, Friday I was elected the secretary of the PVCC film Club, also my best friend came over that night. We went to see a production of “Leading Ladies” then we went to get frozen yogurt, all in all a good day.

Saturday, spent a lot of time playing games with my best Friend, then we went to my eye doctor appointment, turns out I have some sort of allergic reaction in my eye, to what I don’t know. Ended the day with meatball subs, Yum

Sunday, today I really didn’t do much other than playing 1.2, it was a nice break but i’ll have to deal with life again tomorrow.

So overall I’ve had a pretty good week, I’m also looking forward to Halloween and you should be too it’s not that far away. But don’t worry about thanksgiving or Christmas yet, it’s still too early. I hope you all have a good week and I’ll see you next time.

Good luck guys

Another average week.

Alright, so I had another average week this week. Nothing particularly special happened, In fact I think the whole thing was rather dull. I’ll try to recall something from earlier this week…hmm, well my best friend was gonna come over but then he had to watch his grandma. Um, the terraria 1.2 release is the day after tomorrow, I should be getting a call from my best friend about weather or not he can hang out this weekend by tomorrow. I’ve been sifting through the pages of the Left 4 Dead 2 workshop, I’m at about page 103/165 so I’ve got a little ways to go still. Other than that, I think my life this week has been rather dull. I’m sorry about that, but there’s nothing I can really do.

Good Luck

I didn’t forget this time!

So this week was abnormally eventful, normally honest to god, I do nothing eventful. But this week was different. So I’ve been taking this acting class at my school, PVCC, and on monday we did voice impressions. Normally I’m not too fired up about something, but voice impressions are my jam man! I do voice impressions all the time, I couldn’t wait, What got me more excited than myself doing voice impressions, was seeing my classmates do them. Have you ever been in a room full of people who were trying to sound like other people? It’s hilarious, and that’s not to say that everyone sucked, because that’s not true. Some of the other students were actually quite good at doing voice impressions, it’s just the ones that aren’t that you remember the best. So that made my Monday worth waking up for. Also the fact that my third class on Monday, the teacher was mysteriously absent, we had had no prior communication from the teacher, he just wasn’t there. We waited, as is standard, about 15 minutes after official class time, and once we decided that he wasn’t gonna be there, we all left. It turned out later that he was sick that day, and the only other guy with access to his class stuff was also sick, so no one received word and we were all left wondering what in the heck was happening.

Tuesday, mostly uneventful apart from the beautiful lunch that I had. Wednesday, oh Wednesday, this week I despised Wednesday. When you live in a house with seven other people, and mom calls for a “family discussion” It’s never good, it’s not calling us all together for muffins, no, we were in a whole lot of trouble. This semester, everyone in my house is in school, meaning no-one is ever home. One would think this would lead to less mess, but it doesn’t in a family the size of mine, it leads to more mess. Everyone dumps their stuff everywhere, and no one ever cleans it up. So Wednesday, we had a lengthy discussion about cleaning the house. It was not fun, not fun at all.

Thursday, not terribly eventful, apart from the beautiful lunch I made. Friday was a long day, it started off with me going to the Terraria Online forums, where I role play, just to check the role plays and see if any of them updated. Low and behold, I find out that redigit has just released the official release date of the 1.2 update. That got me excited, I was happy most of the day. Then Friday evening, I went to audition for a school play, I got to read for about 4 different characters, I think I did okay, but I didn’t get a callback, so that tells you how ok the director thought I did.

Saturday, just like normal, the most gloomy day of my week, I just hate Saturdays and that’s that. Sunday, which is was today, was a good day, for today I visited my best friend. Now normally my best friend comes over to my house and spends the night, but this time I went over to his house and spent the afternoon. I usually don’t go over to his house because I think his grandmother is weird, that’s the reason. But today I braved it because he told me he finally got a room to himself again. See, his grandmother got kicked out of her retirement home, so she’s staying in what used to be his room, and he’s now staying in the back room of his house. But I wanted to see it, so we hung out, ate church’s chicken, and played minecraft. We made a world called BOOGA BOOGA, don’t judge that name, it just happened. Then we wanted to walk to the dairy queen by his house to get some ice cream, but apparently he had neglected to make some kind of phone calls or something, so we went to his work place instead. There I read some stuff, while he made phone calls, I also laughed at his work voice. Then we went to the adjoining Safeway and purchased sushi and cherry coke, and then I went home. So for me that was an adventure. Plus when I went to church thins morning, for the first time in months, I ran into a bunch of people that I hadn’t seen in forever. Particularly this one guy, who only goes to church every other week, and I never seemed to catch the right times to meet him. He’s one of my friends, he the friend who you used to hang out with all the time, but now spotting him is like finding waldo, you never know when you’re gonna see him. But today I gave him my phone number to call, and he said we should hang out some time, so that’s good. One more thing to top my day off, I came home, went to terraria online and found out that they released the 1.2 trailer for terraria. My day was made, that was just so good, I had a great Sunday.

But yeah, so that’s been my week, I assume this next week won’t be as awesome, because I have nothing to look forward too at all this next week. Until next time guys.

Good luck

Voice warm-ups

Well faithful readers, guess what? I get to do voice impressions tomorrow! Not that I don’t already do that every day, but I get to do it in front of my acting I class, that’ll be interesting. Now about my week, let’s see. Monday was boring, Tuesday was boring, Wednesday was boring, Thursday I went shopping with my dad and got a chill pad for my laptop, Friday was pretty boring, Saturday I did homework, and today I called my best friend just to tell him that I found a mushroom island in minecraft.

I play on a terraria server, In fact I’m even a server officer, but it seems that today there was quite a bit of drama. There are a few people, I won’t name names, who don’t really get along with each other and they fought today. Fighting is a natural human thing, but when it’s on the server it ruins play experience, so I have to moderate it whenever I see it. On the other side of the coin, I can’t wait for terraria 1.2 to be released! Redigit stated that It would be out before (or on) October 1st, by my clock that gives me 22-23 days to wait.

I play A lot of minecraft, sometimes I do it to escape server drama in terraria, or sometimes I just like to build. Either way, I’ve been on the hunt for a mushroom island for nearly half a year. I found that mushroom island today, not that there is too much there for me to see, it’s just mushrooms and mooshrooms. The mooshrooms are the reason for my visit, I have yet to get any on my farm. Unfortunately now I must add rails down my bridge all the way to -30000 Z.

As far as Life goes, I’m going to arrange a visit to my best friend’s house next weekend, He needs my help to move into his new room. The poor man’s room was taken by his grandmother, and now he lives in the back room of his house. I just started school and I’m already looking forward to winter break, of course I think that’s just the way it goes. Honestly though I have no idea where I’m going to go once I graduate from community collage.

I’m excited about the 50th anniversary of doctor who, but also terrified. If I talked about why, we’d both be here all day. At the same time, I’m excited for Sherlock season 3, and also this week’s episode of adventure time. I’m waiting for the 1.2 release of terraria and the 1.7 release of minecraft. I also have to audition for a play this week, the play is called “desperate hours” and I must audition for my class. I also have to go see both ‘desperate hours’ and ‘leading ladies’ for my class.

Basically, I have a lot to look forward too, but nothing really to stand on this week. So I’ll let you know how things go next week, until then.

Good luck

I wish I could take a vacation.

Ok so you guys might be wondering (Though probably not) Why I missed posting last week, well let me explain myself. Between school and a crazy weekend I totally spaced on writing. So after school was over, my sister had a graduation that Friday. I had to dress up nice which I utterly despise doing, also my brother had come over to attend the graduation as well. Now normally when I have to attend an event like this, I just sit in the corner and don’t speak to anyone while I keep the time, but in this case it was different. See my best friend appeared at this event as well, and I hadn’t seem him for a few months, so we chatted a lot. In the end we convinced our parents to let him spend the night at my house. This only slightly protected me from the explosion that happened to following day.

My mom had had enough of the way the house was looking because no one was there to take care of it, we were always at school. She got mad, real mad, and a lot of things were said that most of us would regret for the next 6 hours. It was a bad day, it even carried on into Sunday, so with all the stress I just totally forgot to write.

This week was a little different, I had my typical boring school week, but this weekend was a four-day weekend because of labor day. My brother disappeared Thursday night to spend the weekend with my other brother, and I was left to handle everything basically. While he was gone I fixed the house phones, cleaned my room, painted the downstairs bathroom, put a mirror in the hall, hung a hook in my sister’s room, replaced the shower head in the upstairs bathroom, replaced the stove light, and even fixed my parent’s toilet. I was freaking busy this weekend, I barely got any homework done.

Anyways, I’m hoping the rest of this month will be less dramatic and far more chill, I also hope that I can get away from the house one of these weekends. But as always, I wish you all the best of luck in whatever it is that you do.

Until next time.

Now it’s time to write.

So, school’s gonna start again tomorrow, I think it’s kind of sad that I only got two weeks of vacation, but that could just be me being selfish. Anyways, I’m being launched into a new semester of education starting tomorrow, I don’t know all what will go on but I can hope for the best.

I started a lot this week, and I don’t know that I finished a lot of it. For one I got involved in a role play on a forum, It’s not something I would normally do but I decided to give it a shot. I also started watching .\\sign, it’s odd of course but isn’t any anime? I spent a lot of time on the Terraria server this week, and now I’m even a little excited about 1.2, I don’t know when it’ll come out but I’ll be there.

Things may change for me now, I might even get a job this semester, at least then I could attempt to make enough money to build that awesome computer that I want to build. I feel like I’m about to get slapped in the face with something big, but I always feel that way when a new semester starts.

Well, good luck guys, I’ll see you next week.

One week of nothing.

So guys this entire last week I’ve had no school at all to do, so basically I’ve been sitting around doing nothing all week. It feels kind of weird after a while you know, but at least it’s still mostly relaxing. I can’t wait to move out of this house, It’ll be great to not have to deal with the mess of seven other people at once.

My little siblings started school this week, so the house has been mostly quiet, I’ve been playing a lot of terraria mostly in multiplayer, the 1.2 release is going to be awesome.

I hope to hang out with some friends before school starts back up again, and I really hope that i can keep my head on straight as well. I went to a swimming party last week, but I’m afraid of pools, I only went for a friend’s birthday.

I’m afraid that’s all I have to talk about for now, and yeah it’s a mess but that’s because I’m a mess right now.

Good luck

Its Almost Time.

Well folks, I’m feeling pretty darn good this week. Last week I had a four-day weekend because of the fourth of July, this weekend my mom, sisters, and one annoying little brother are all going camping. So I’m having friends over, it’s gonna be a blast as long as I remember my homework. Another thing, Killing floor has gone live with it’s “pier of pain” summer event, I’ve been trying so hard to unlock Mr. Foster but as of yet have been unsuccessful. Minecraft has now updated to 1.6 which introduces horses along with coal blocks, colored clay, leads, and name tags. Terraria will be updating sometime this month, I’ve been waiting forever for that. So overall the month will be pretty exciting. I’m sad to say that next week my Photoshop class ends, I really do enjoy that class and it’s one that I will be sad to see go. But overall I’m feeling pretty good about myself.

Also I’d like to take this chance to thank my followers, I know there’s only a few of you, but hey most people don’t even read blogs so… Anyways thanks so much for the support guys and I hope you have a great week.

Good luck
