Tomorrow is Universal Children's Day, and my school is celebrating that. We will study for the first 3 hours and then spend the other three doing activities that raise funds to orphans. It should be a good day, especially that I am participating in a basketball match: Students vs. Teachers.

A typical weekend night in the life of Kero:
Be online around 10 at night. Pass out an hour later. Wake up in the middle of the night. Can't fall back asleep until 7AM. Only bother waking up when cellphone rings. "HERF GET AMTRAK TICKET ALREADY" Fully wake up to unlock dorm for room-mate's friend. Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; December 24, 2011 at 04:25:19 AM. |

I have a marimba solo for my state's Solo & Ensemble festival. It's Hungarian Dance No. 5 if anyone has heard of it. The only problem is... I normally play trombone. If you know anything about band instruments, you'll know the two instruments have different clefts, so I can't read marimba music very fast like I can with trombone music.

Big money was about being incredibly fast and lucky. I beat the first 2 levels in under 30 seconds, and nearly lost a few times.
And Galaga was really just taking down one enemy that kept spawning. Took me an hour and a half and I only got to level 3. |

So as Spirit mentioned, the Universal Children's Day turned out to be hugely successful in our school, which was a challenge for me and the Head Boy considering this was our first school-wide event. I was extremely glad our schedule worked and students liked the day!

I'm going to assume that was a statement of opinion and roll with it (if it was really a statement saying "this is better than that" then I ignore it and replace it with an opinion statement).
Personally, I think 5th gen battling is overkill. Hearing about the new moves, abilities, items, etc., made me think that Nintendo and Gamefreak were purposely aiming for 5th gen to be more competitively based then the previous generations, as opposed to where it just kinda happened in 4th gen, and that there made 4th gen my favorite gen - it's not completely based around competitive battling. Oh, on another note, my school started its Thanksgiving Break today. I don't go back to school until Monday. Last edited by Quadcentruo; November 22, 2011 at 03:38:21 PM. |

cut it for me. I didn't even fully realize until you spoke up. (Probably a subconscious thing.) Anyways, I'm afraid Pokemon might've just gotten to the point where the battling's become so competitive, I get discouraged from even picking up the game. Black and White especially. I actually think "Overkill" is the best term to describe Unova. Last edited by GalliumGrant; November 25, 2011 at 08:05:40 PM. |

Everyone in my school isn't getting report cards until the end of the semester. The school says it's too expensive to send report cards out at the end of the marking period and it would be out-dated information (because we have to check our grades every Friday anyway).

Our school's marching band has 50 people in it. The other school in my town has a marching band of 102 people. Kids get a choice if they want to join marching band in both schools.
You can see how little kids in my school care about the band program. |

We live in such a boring place. But then again, it's better than living in a threatening community, so it's not such a horrible thing. Ah, thank goodness for our little safety bubble. When something happens within our community, though, it spreads fast. For example, two years ago, my sister had a friend whose uncle was murdered. I don't know about places where this happens on a regular basis, but we got affected pretty badly. Just last month, we had a drug overdose and two suicides, but I dunno...that may be pretty typical for some people.

My township is bordered with one of the worst places in Southeast Michigan, so the good citizens are always on high alert.
Just last year, someone was murdered for trying to stop two thieves from stealing $200 worth of CD's. Thankfully, something like that is a rare occurrence, and the worst that ever happens here is the fights at the schools. |

It is just that we are growing up and are facing new things in life. Heck, in few months time I have to start preparing for a place to sit in and a school to go to for my final year, where I might be away from my parents in another country...

Derp. This is the longest going forum account I've ever had. I'm surprised since I usually leave the forums I've registered on after a month or two.
Anyhow, today our school suffered from a small power outage for about 10 - 15 minutes. This dang wind is messing us up. Even LAX lost its power today. |
