Whee!!! I have no life <_<>_>

Yes... I took one of those online internet quiz things that are incredibly not not not accurate.

Behold! As I am... kind of emo *gasp*

You are sorta emo. You listen to Radiohead and enjoy their eclectic sound, but haven't pushed past into the underground indie subculture. The closest to emo attire that you own is maybe a few band t-shirts and tight jeans.

That's actually pretty true, although I don't own any band t-shirts and I wouldn't say my jeans are very tight.

*goes off to write sad poems about how much he hates the fact the scar on his wrist looks like his imaginary ex-girlfriend*

Yay! My mom found my cellphone, it was missing for two days... 'twas teh sadness.

Hrm... I just had school today. I was supposed to borrow a laptop from the school, but the kid who was using it didn't return the laptop, so I didn't get a laptop, DANGIT! :(

Lalala, well, my friend Holly is back from Britan, and she's still the same person.

In guitar class today, the person I was supposed to play a Christmas song with didn't practice and so it was a pure bassline song.

Uhh... That's about it for today. I'm just going to vegitate in front of the computer for most of the day now. And I'll probably play some Mario Tennis or something... YEAH! :O

Today wasn't bad, definitely better than most days.

First, I woke up at 11AM, I was tired, and so I rolled over and went back to sleep. I woke up again at 11:25AM, and tried going back to sleep, but I was listening to music last night, and there was a upbeat song playing and it was making it hard for me to sleep, but I was too lazy to reach over and press the stop button. So I eventually fell asleep and woke up at 12:25AM. Yay! I accomplished one thing.

I walked out into the living room and said good morning to my mom and sarcastically said mean things to my sister. Then I sat on the couch and watched whatever my mom was watching on TV. My mom and sister left the living room for some reason, so I grabbed the control and changed the channel to G4TV, yay! Xplay was on.

My mom came back, and then she started watching her Soap Opera, and some of her news. Instead of doing school, I procrastinated... And watched with her. >_>;

Then afterwards, around 1:30PM, my mom called my grandma to see if she needed a ride to her doctor's appointment. And she did. So My mom, sister, and I went out into town to take my grandma to her doctor's appointment. Instead of waiting for an insanely long time, we went to Blockbuster to see if they had any PSP movies or games for sale, but they only had three PSP games for sale. So make a long story short, I got a pre-used copy Mario Power Tennis for the GameCube at the nice price of $7.50 and I also got some Red Vines.
I was going to rent Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz for the Wii, but it was $8 to rent it for five days, WHAT A RIP OFF! So my mom may buy it for me instead of spending a butt load of money to rent it for a measly five days.

Then we went back to my grandma's doctors office and waited in the parking lot, I ended up eating all my Red Vines while watching my sister play Loco Roco, but that soon ended when her PSP ran out of power. Eventually my grandma got out of her doctor's office and we drove her home. And then we dove back home.

When we got home, I had to do school, but I didn't. And instead I ended up watching this 1 hour and 45 minute long Hurricane Aftermath thing on HBO. It was really good, and I thought it was a movie, but it's some kind of mini-series, so I have to wait until Sunday to see the other part.

Then... 7:00PM rolls around, I still haven't done my school. I was also hungry, to I made some food and ate it. While I was eating my food, my sister started practicing her song that she had planned for guitar class, and that reminded me that I had to practice my song for guitar class too (I play the bass in it though). So I finished eating, and then when I went to practice my song, I remembered that it was a weird version of it that I had never heard before. By the way, the song is called "Away in a Manger" (listen to the version I'm playing here).

And now, here I am, 9:15PM, typing in my blog about my day. I still need to do school. I have 0 of 9 chapters of Health done, 1 of 3 chapters of American Literature done, and 0 of 3 chapters of US History Done. All due by January 4th, 2007 (Wow, a new year)! So yeah, I'm going to stop typing and start doing my school.

Well... it's 8PM and I'm bored.

I'm wishing my sister or someone would play SSBM with me right now. I hate how the only time I get to play SSBM with someone is at my friend's house and I only see him on some of the weekends.

Hmm... the only thing that's really keeping me sane is listening to music and chatting with my cousin. And then people are talking about some... goat.. thing on IRC, and I have no idea what it is, and I don't plan on finding out any time soon. They also told me not to find out because it's really disturbing.

blaaah. I wish Super Smash Brothers Brawl were out so I'd have something to do.

Well I'm currently anticipating going to a Christmas Party at my mom's friend's house on the 18th of this month. Mostly because I'm going to bring my bass guitar and jam with one of my friends that I'd like to get to be more of a friend with... because we don't really talk that much, but I know he's a pretty awesome guy. He likes cool music. Oh, and I'm also bringing my Wii over, and we're going to play Wii Sports and I'm going to let him try out Zelda Twilight Princess. Oh, and there's also going to be a guy who works where my mom does and he's a bassist, so that's really awesome for me. <_<;

Can't think of anything else to write... Lalala. My friend Matt has an awesome taste in music, I just wish I had the patience to listen to all this new music he gave me.

That's all I can realy think about... D:

Today's SRCM is a music playlist. The description and songs included in it can be found here:

Short, but sweet. Enjoy! :D

Wow... This weekend has been VERY busy for me. On Friday I went to the Cornish Christmas thing in town with my friend, then I went to his house expecting to play games with him and a bunch of other guys, but it was too late, so I just browsed the internet on his computer. On Saturday I got up and my friend made a Mii version of himself on my Wii, then I browsed the internet some more on his computer, and then we went to a wedding that lasted from 3PM to 6PM, and then I went home and was all tired... On Sunday I went to church and then when I got back, I got dressed and immediately went to a singles group get together thing where we were to play lots of board games, but instead we ended up playing Life: Pirates of the Carribean edition from like... 6PM to 9PM, we didn't even finish because one of the guys there had tonsilitis(spelling) and was starting to feel sick so he had to go to the hospital and everyone else was all tired...

Now it is Monday, I just did my homework for my classes and now I'm online and playing my bass guitar... I will have to do my Health Book though, and probably I will have to do it durring my Winter break, BOO!

Tomorrow I have classes, and then I volunteered to help my Educational Specialist out with this litte Winter party thing for the 2nd to 4th graders in my school. Wednesday... I can stay home and do school, there's also church that night but I don't think my mom will be up to taking me that night, I haven't gone to Wednesday night church in three months, when since my dad starting working again.

Thursday... MORE CLASSES! And hmm... Friday, I'll probably be doing tons of school work. And then I'm going to vegitate ALL DAY LONG on Saturday. Oh wait, I think I'm supposed to go to a friend's house on Friday and Saturday. Which is awesome with me. <_<;

But then I have church on Sunday. Ahh... And that's the week Winter Break starts. But bascially I'll be doing my Health book, my Liturature book, and US History book durring Winter Break, oh well, at least I don't have classes.

Oh, and then there's the chance that I may go with my aunt and my Grandma to celebrate Christmas with my mom's side of the family in the Bay Area, so I'll see how that goes. I haven't seen my cousin's a while, so that'd be nice to do.

Wii! So um... I got a Nintendo Wii today, it was a somewhat difficult task but with the help of some awesome people I got one :D

Ok, so I begin my adventure on November 18 at 4:00pm, my friend Matt drove over to Kmart to give his friend Ricky his stuff (Gamecube + accessories) back, Ricky wanted me to wait in line with him for a Wii, but I didn't want to stay up until 10AM the next day... So Matt and I head towards the Roseville Galleria, but we make a quick stop at the In-N-Out Burger and the EB Games next to it, where Matt and I met the ever so awesome Joe Sunrider who was playing Monkey Ball on the Wii for something like 4 hours before we got there. So we talked a bit and then I got to try to Wii for the first time, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to because I have this weird thing about enjoying games on in-store kiosks. Anyways, Matt got Children of Mana at that store. And we found out that they only took Wii pre-orders there and they were telling people to go to the Galleria to get a Wii, RIGHT WHERE WE WERE GOING! >_<

At around... 7PM Matt and I arrived at the Galleria to wait for the 9PM line up to get a Wii at Midnight. We waited... and waited... I watched Matt play CoM... I obsessively checked my watch. Finally, we noticed the line
starting around 8:45PM, so we made a quick little dash in it, so here I am, the 5th person in line, feeling pretty confident on getting a Wii, and then I guy comes and calls out numbers... So I'm thinking "WTH?! Numbers? I'm supposed to have picked a number?"... So I have Matt save my spot and I run in the EB Games and ask the guy about how they're doing the pre-orders and if they have any more numbers left. Turns out you had to get a number before 9PM, and then they'd call you out from the line. And just my luck, they were out of numbers. I felt a stun run through me, one of anger and disbelief.

So Matt and I drove back home and I was all bummed out about the waste of time we spent at the Galleria mall.
After getting lost a few times, Matt eventually got home around 10ish... and we both signed on the IRC... where I was telling my sad story of not getting a Wii. Then that's when Musicman came in and said that nearby Target is selling Wiis at 7AM and they didn't sell all their Xbox 360s last time, so he figured that the Wii would do the same there. I then asked him if he could check the line there for me and I gave him my cellphone number. He called me back and said that there were about 20 people and 60 Wiis for sale. This made me happy. So I tried to get Matt to drive over there ASAP, but he was tired. So we slept from 11PM to 3AM and the drove over to Target...

When we arrived at 4AM the lines hardly grew from what Musicman said. There were a lot of people in sleeping bags and some people using a generator to play Halo on a somewhat large TV. Matt and I were going to wait in line, but it was freezing cold so we waited in the car and played DS games. At around 6AM we noticed the line was starting to grow a bit more, so we decided to get in line. I swears, it was SO FREAKING COLD, my feet were starting to get numb because my socks were a bit sweaty from walking all over the mall. Eventually a guy and his sister lined up behind Matt and I. And OMG, she was so negative about the whole concept of waiting in line for a game console, heck, she was negative about pretty much everything, I wanted to slap her so badly. Anyways, 7AM rolls around, NOTHING HAPPENS! Turns out that they really opened at 8AM, bleh, so eventually a Target employee comes and hands out NUMBERED TICKETS, this time I actually got one and was very happy, my chances of getting a Wii were 99.9%, the wind would have to blow that ticket out of my cold dead hands.

Finally, 8AM rolls around, everyone gets in Target and the Wii sales begin. You simply just had to give your ticket to a guy, tell him what games/accessories you want and then go to the counter and buy your Wii. While waiting for that, Ricky called Matt, he said that you HAD TO buy two Wii games in order to get a Wii at Kmart, this made me glad that I didn't stay at Kmart, because I was given a certain amount of money and it was not enough for two games and a Wii. So anyways, I got an extra Wii Remote and a Nunchuk along with a Wii console pack and immediately run to Matt's car.

We get to his house, unpackage it while saying our "oohs" and "ahhs" . Then we play Wii sports and have a good time. Sadly, the time came when I had to leave for church. I then thanked Matt for doing all this craziness for me and we talked about doing it again for Super Smash Bros. Brawl if that moment ever came, although I think I'll just pre-order the game instead of waiting in an insane line for an insane ammount of time...

So anyways, I got a Wii and now I'm happy. Now I have to wait until Wednesday to pick up my copy of Zelda: TP that I preordered a couple of months ago. Wii Sports sadly doesn't have enough depth to play solo for hours on end. And overall I'm enjoying the Wii console, I just wish I had more games to enjoy on it.

Guess what!?!?! It's Shawn's Random Creation of the Month! This is where I put a picture of something I created in my life... And then you get to look at it and laugh, or smile, or maybe even cry. I even made a flashy little banner to make you go "OMG! IT'S THE MOMENT MY LIFE HAS WAITED UPON!"

This month's crazy creation was made from my hype for the Nintendo Wii.
Behold!

It's amazing what you can make with three DVD cases, two sheets of printer paper, and some scotch tape.
Now I just need to wait in line for 6 hours to get a real one.

Well today wasn't bad. I got up ate some cereal and watched a little TV, then I went with my mom to go to Albersons, but we before we did that we got a pink paper in the mail telling us we had a package at the post office. Turns out it was my CDs I ordered. Which were:

Picaresque by The Decemberists
X&Y by Coldplay
Blur by Blur
How to Measure a Planet? by The Gathering

So anways, I get to the grocery store, and then get all the stuff I normally get (Sobe Life Water, Pocky and a magazine, although I didn't get a magazine this time). Then my mom goes to Record Connection and buys a Funk mix CD, and my sister got Sugar Ray's Greatest Hits... Hrmm... then I got home and watched Deal or No Deal while importing all my CDs into iTunes. Then I ate dinner (Tacos) and did my homework for tomorrow.

I was going to play Warcraft III with my friend Matt, but he's tired right now and doesn't feel like playing :/

JakeV isn't on now, which sucks because I want to play WCIII with him too, but his mom is evil and makes him get off the computer at around 9PM.

So now here I am listening to The Gathering, which isn't bad, but all the music on the CD I got sounds the same, but who knows, maybe I'll get used to it.

Hrm... nothing much else to say. Tea is good.

Well now, I've been more into blogging lately. No idea why, I just like blogging...

Today, I woke up at my friend's house, because I spent the night at his house playing Super Smash Brothers: Melee, WarCraft III, and Magic: The Gathering. I also used a lot of his high speed internet, since I only have dialup over here. So I was on YouTube watching a bunch of pro SSB:M videos and guitar related things.

Well anyways, my friend was super tired, so I woke him up at the last minute to take me to church today. He wasn't fully there, probably because he didn't get to drink his coffee (life fuel). But he got me to church, and I think I actually brought everything back that I brought over.

So yeah, here I am, typing on my blog, because I was playing DotA with my friends but some stupid noob called and disconnected me. So now I'm waiting for my friend to message me in Gtalk to tell me that I can get back on to play some more DotA. Lalalala...

Nintendo needs to translate Mother 3 to English and call it Earthbound 2 or something. Because I've been waiting such a long time as well as the many Earthbound fans on Starmen.net for a second American Earthbound game. It friggin' bugs me that Nintendo can't go and translate ONE game for some highly devoted American/Canadian fans of a game that said a sequel was in the making 10 freaking years ago T_T;

NoA, if someone that works for you is reading this, I'm telling you, translate Mother 3 to English and release the game in America for the GBA so everyone can be happy. I'm telling you, eBay and the internet has made Earthbound a popular game. And with Ness in Super Smash Bros, you're giving off some hint that you still care about Earthbound. PLEASE! I want Earthbound 2! That 30,000 signature thing on Starmen.net wasn't for nothing.

Ok, now I'm done writing about what's on my mind. Lalalala, cinnamon gum.

Today, I started my blog(duh). Hmm.. I'm going to ask JakeV(from AXA http://acforums.megadoomer.com) if he wants to play Star Craft. I'll write the results later.
