I'm finally over my cold. I think. It started out as a horrible fever and now it's been reduced to minimal coughing. I almost feel good again.
Funny thing about that, too. My mom said I started to feel better around 8 PM last night. The Beatles tribute came on at 8 PM last night. Haha, no relation at aaaalll~ |

I recently got Adventure Time season 1 and 2 on DVD and I'm loving them. :3 It has a lot of episodes I had never seen and it's nice to see the roots of the series. I bought them at Wal-Mart for $20.00 each and they each have 26 episodes and some bonus content!

it's a blizzard outside in PA...
I'm getting tired of shoveling snow. this is probably the 5th time we've been snowed in.... Dear God, what is going on? then again, if there's any consolation, I'm spending more quality time with my siblings and parents.... we're always so busy any other time... snow can be so beautiful.... up until you have to traverse in it. |

Ha, screw YouTube's birthday, you have a better chance of striking gold than getting a worthwhile YT update.
But today WAS the first day of Katsucon at the National Harbor. It was just like how I remembered Otakon from 2 years ago, only smaller and the hotel looks real fancy. Now that I'm a convention novice I know my way around better and I'll be able to take in the full experience~! These next two days will be a blast! |

I had a great Valentine's Day! ^^ I got my Valentine (my girlfriend) a box of Godiva Chocolates, Roses, a Card, and a heart shaped balloon<3 In return, I got a card and lots of chocolate! She gave me my favorite chocolate, Reeces!... In heart-shaped form!!!
Next up, I have Catholic State Championships today! My goal that I've been training for ever since last year is finally in sight. The tournament runs for two days, I just have to win 2 matches with no losses today to qualify for Sunday.. If I win Sunday, I'm New York's Catholic State Champ! I'm so excited, I got the first seed! |

Well, I had my first experience with having drunk friends in my dorm room. It was funny for the most part; like when one of them took my umbrella, opened it, and pretended to be Mary Poppins. He then proceeded to spawl out on the floor and lick one of my friends on her leg. (not to mention he was so loud that he woke up half the people on my end of the floor)
And this is why I'm never getting drunk by booze. (being love-drunk is perfectly fine though haha) |

Aaaaaaand your NEW. CATHOLIC STATE CHAMPION AT 106 LBS......
JASON JAVIERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! I've worked so hard for this, and my goal has finally been reached! I'm a catholic state champion! I won all 3 of my matches that tournament with major decisions (which means you win by 8 or more points each time). Pics coming in the picture thread soon WOW I'M STILL EXCITED. |

I don't even know how to feel about the weather anymore. The cold air did get me sick, but it also dropped enough snow to net me ANOTHER Winter Break; Part III: Spring Break Doesn't Exist Anymore. But that combined with my super fun weekend has made me so lazy... I just remembered I have a stack of homework due tomorrow I didn't even look at. Oh well, that's what they made first period for~!

Well i got in my first 10 battles in for the X&Y Day1 Beta test Tournament or whatever its called. But i did find 2 Japanese players cheating in it already (Made me so mad), the first one somehow read my every move and also somehow choose the right mons to counter the ones i choosed. He takes like minute and half to make 1 move.
The other one had 6 rotoms (All forms) and to my knowledge you cant have more than 1 pokemon in your team that dosnt share the same dex number. Unless im missing something. Otherwise im doing pretty good so far. |

Just a few minutes ago I was playing through the Savage Dungeon (the really long one with floors and floors of enemies underneath that big rock on Outset Island) in the Wind Waker HD, trying to get the Hero's Charm. I got quite a few floors taken down. I eventually got down to having only one heart left and finished a few more floors without taking damage, but then came the Redead. They never bothered me in Ocarina of Time, but their piercing wail in WW is just...unsettling. I seemed to do pretty well against them by using the hoookshot to latch on and pull myself up to them then slash away, but I have to be fast about it. Then I got to a room with two Stalfos and three redead. I cautiously took out the two stalfos while managing to have 1/4 of a heart left, but then a Redead caught me off guard, latched on and gave me a game over. I had a feeling I was close to that Hero's Charm too. :<

Productive things I've done today: Practiced clarinet, trained with my gym team, developed a new style of plucking with my bass guitar.
Productive things I wish I did: Work on writing sheet music, clean room, any/all homework, drawing. What I did instead: Search for Beatles related songs on Rock Band, thought long and hard how I was going to do productive things. I think this was a very good weekend. I'll get to doing those things some other time. I hope. Last edited by TurtwigX; February 24, 2014 at 02:39:51 AM. |

Okay, everyone stop what you're doing right now. Do you like Flappy Bird? Oh wait, I don't care what you think. Play this EarthBound version right now.
http://gamejolt.com/games/arcade/flapbound/23154/ It's got better graphics, physics, and MUSIC. I'm gonna be in heaven with this for like the next week. |

I wanted to find my phone number in the first billion digits of pi, but most text editors can't handle a file that big so I wrote a computer program to do it. I think my CPU is going to explode before I get a result . . .
Yes, this is what I do with my Friday nights, people. |

Good luck. Statistically speaking, it should occur once every...70 million digits, I think (10^7 * 7). If you mean all ten digits, that's like once every 100 billion, I think. My math might be off, though.

Well Friday I went to see Son of God with Oasis, my church's youth group and yesterday, I went to Nashville to see the Predators play the Winnipeg Jets with my church's mens' group. Son of God was a great movie, but hard to watch at times. The part that got me was when Jesus was carrying his cross and he kept falling down from all that the Romans did to him and then when his hands were nailed onto the cross. It's not meant to be a thing taken lightly though. It's a movie that while being tough to watch towards the end was great in the way it portrayed Jesus' life and served its purpose well. The hockey game on the other hand, was the first one I had ever been to. It was a long trip considering I live on the northwestern part of the sate, but it was VERY fun and exciting to watch. I had a great weekend! Oh, also, I'm out of school due to icy weather again. I'm a bit happy about it and a little upset at the same time. I like being out, but I hate having make-up days... -_-

My sister's birthday was yesterday... and for the first time since I was 7 years old, I ate fish. I was tested if I was allergic to it, but turns out it was only shellfish I was allergic to. It's like opening a door to a new world, eating fish after a long time.

Well I found this amazing song a few days ago. It's Regain Control by Shirobon and I lutely love it! The vocoders are really enjoyable. I couldn't get the video to embed right for some reason, so here's the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKXpauDIGjo

I like that YouTube started letting any random user use custom thumbnails on their videos, but I always have to laugh when I see someone try to fit a whole billboard on something that's about an two inches across in search results.

I just getting an email from school telling me that we're getting a blizzard warning over the course of tomorrow and where to check that we still have classes.
My school NEVER closes for weather. This should be interesting. Edit: so far three classes cancelled, and I just heard that the whole school officially decided to shut down. I'm a little worried now. Still coming down hard. Last edited by Dragonite; March 12, 2014 at 05:17:12 AM. |

I think a picture best summarizes the weather here:
(don't mind the underexposure; it looked fine on the camera's screen. also, whoops, it's crooked) Snow all the way to the back of my 8-ish-foot-long covered porch... that almost never happens. Also, the wind has created some interesting snow-forms on the deck out back: UPDATE: According to my dad, it's currently impossible to get a car out of the driveway (the snow there is about knee-height), the side of the house that everything is blowing from has chest-height snow, and the forecast overnight is "blizzard." Oh joy. Last edited by NismoZ; March 12, 2014 at 04:36:55 PM. |

It feels very strange seeing a relatively inactive general conversational thread... Usually things move really quickly as soon as I stop looking at it.
Then again, maybe it's because we're small and tight? (Must...find...icebreaker...) Last edited by Twiggy; March 16, 2014 at 08:19:12 AM. |

Ooh, icebreakers? Well I'm not too good with that but... what does Springtime mean to you? For me it's just constant allergies and with my asthma that means even MORE time inside than I normally spend. And they want to encourage me to go outside during school? Pfft. The closest they can get with that would be the field trip to Philly, but that's well a way's away, probably later April. |

I usually have some wicked allergies in the spring, but I'm away at school and surrounded by some different plant life this year so maybe it'll be different.
Oh, who am I kidding. Seeing the temperature jump about 40 degrees is always nice, too. |

I'm still sad the weather's getting hotter now. Tomorrow might be the last day I get to wear my green puffy coat... I will have to search endlessly for a 10-pocketed spring jacket. But then again, the cold has been bothering me whenever I want to wear my headphones, but not my hat. I can never really be satisfied, heh.

I'm privileged to have some type of allergy or asthma symptom for every season.....
Hmm... it's funny hearing people saying they are having a field trip to philly. I live 30 minutes from there, so it isn't much of a trip. But speaking of trips, Delaware, one of the smallest states... I just recently learned has a beach XD. guess that since we always go to the boarder of Delaware to visit my big sister, my idea of Delaware was limited to just the city of Wilmington. |

I've been to Rehoboth beach before. It was no Martha's Vineyard or the REAL Jersey Shore, but it was a fun time. Really, I enjoy going to all the beaches. But it's a disappointment when I fail to find good saltwater taffy or dulce de leche fudge. It's my loooove~<3

That reminds me... last year's beach vacation ended in us being in a severe flash flood... in Rehoboth beach. I had my girlfriend there at the time with me. man, not only was the weather bad, but it was as cold as winter in the middle of summer!
Well, needless to say, a day or so later, she broke up with me over the phone via text. Worst. Summer. Ever. |

Icebreakers...I had so many of those during my first few days at college. They pretty much forced icebreakers on us to get to know people on my side of the floor. Oddly enough, I made more friends on the other side of the floor.

Remember, in college dorms, freshman year is the best chance to make friends. Besides classes, it becomes tougher to mingle as you move up in standing as you're usually put in the same dorm with those in your standing, and those folks are less willing to mingle as they acquire friends.
