The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 19

I've skipped a few weekends I'll admit it, so rather than be the twenty-something-ith Saturday I've posted this is merely the 19th.

If I'm not mistaken this should be Day 2 of Kwanzaa and the 3rd day of Christmas. Hey guys where are my French Hens?????????? And for that matter I should've gotten a partridge in a pear tree with my gifts and 2 turtle doves yesterday[yes turtle doves exist Kevin got 2 in Home Alone 2] and personally it is a little over a fortnight until well if you know you know what.

Alright,alright I'll admit it I don't really need or want those gifts,it was just fun to type up.What I'd really love to see is Asm work on her novel[I thank her for letting me read it,but really she left off in the middle of a conversation and albeit of an important one that could very well shape the rest of the book{ok,ok I dunno about that but hey,a guy can guess}],snow,world peace, and Warriorcats regain glory

I've gotten back to blogging reviews my last reviews were reviews of Nintendo, Super Nintendo,PlayStation[consoles],Firefox[Web Browser], and Wave Race 64[video game] and on this blog I made early New Years Resolutions and that's it for blog stuff

For Christmas Eve the family went out to visit realtives I spent time DS'ing with KB,bothering Asm and Emmza, singing Christmas Carols,and of course going crazy with all that food. After the party when we got home Ma and Pa collapsed,Asm and I camped out next to the Christmas Tree and the very next day,after getting all the presents opened[I got a house key,DVD's of Pirates of the Carribean:At World's End, The Chronicles of Narnia movies{The Lion,the Witch,and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian},Pajama bottoms,sunday clothes,personal stuff I'd rather not talk about and that's about it but it's better than poor ol' Pa who just got a bar of soap]. So anyway Uncle John and his daughers came over for an afternoon and we played Apples to Apples the whole time the results were hilarious. Then we headed back to Walnut Creek to visit "The Cousins"(Uncle Eric,Aunt Sally,Colter,KB,Emmza,and Mitchy) we ate,sang more christmas carols, and ran from a fire which started because a log went crazy so kilted up Eric did a fire caber tilt,but the"caber" dropped and the room caught fire[according to Mitchy the room still smells of smoke] now I was hanging out with their kitty while this was happenning so when people ran I was like huh?.The next day was lazing around,then eating like hell when the string party started. Today everyone just hung around watching Psych,Chronicles of Narnia:Prince Caspian and doing a puzzle while I played Battalion Wars.

Enough????? Too bad this isn't the last blog post I'll be back on Monday(Or Tuesday if I end up on the ski trip I hope for)

P.S. Hope you have New Years Resolutions ready,and no I have no Bumper Sticker of the Day for I have not left the house

Early New Years Resolutions

I'm done thinking about what I want for Christmas. I either have to wait for my birthday or what I want is impossible.I just read Asm's blog and she listed 5 impossible things she wanted.As much as I'd love to wallow in doom and gloom. I think I'll work on New Years Resolutions

I know,I know it's early but hey the Holidays(Christmas,Hanukah,Kwanzaa) hid behind a bush and while I was stressing about my grades,they came up and pounced on me.I'm not gonna let New Years do the same. Ok here's what I got so far

1. To be a little more optimistic[even if pessimism is often the more real]

2. Be a bit more productive

3. Try harder for better grades

4. Become financially stable

5.Stop being a procrastinator

6.Stop cursing

7.Change this ugly template

8.Pray harder to get out of this growth spurt

9.Contribute more to world peace[I'll probably break this one but hey one can wish and set goals anyway]

10. To remind myself to work on these resolutions

11.Get more to read my blog

Well that's it

Let the Fun Begin

Let the fun begin,need I say more?????

Alright if my life is really that exciting and fun I might as well humor ya'.

After Wednesday things started getting so easy. Wednesday was a regular mediocre day, on Thursday it was mostly mediocre except we[the class] spent all of 2nd period preparing for Exhibition Night.After that pretty mediocre until after school in which case everything was tense.Dad was angered by being misinformed about the amount of lentils to make,Mom was looking for lid. I was running late,figuring it would take forever I took a mad dash back down to school

At Exhibition Night there was pizza,more pizza,and more pizza so the lentil dish stuck out and almost none of it got eatin'. Exhibition Night is best described as an Open House and if you don't what an Open House is,oh go stick your finger in food processor and anger a mountain lion.So I basically was presenting a chemistry lab where you dip a stick into formulas like sodium chloride or copper nitrate and then put it around the edge of a flame and looked for color changes in the flames. Don't ask if we worked with Dihydrogen monoxide,that would extinguish the fire. I also found that he freshman were better debaters than we[the class again] were

The next day I saw MILK (2008),killer movie left many of us tearing up when poor ol' Milk died(no not the drink) Harvey Milk the first gay supervisor and politician of San Francisco.4MI (For more information) look my review at http://madmonkey64.blogspot.com/2008/12/independence-day-and-milk.html

After seeing Milk I've just been hanging around doin' nuttin'

Happy Holidays

-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S. Let the fun begin

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY: Who needs drugs? I go broke buying books

Not quite at the Holidays yet

We're not quite at the holidays yet but we're almost there

I don't know if that's a good thing for everyone here but for me it's great

So far I've been working on a history essay,studying a species I already know about and then forced to make a lousy poster about it.Stupid Environmental Science class I still wish I was in that Ceramics class I signed myself up for.I was on a role,the teacher was nice and the students weren't troublemakers.

It's almost like Ms. Morris' Deranged Spanish class of Doom last year.Only the students and I get along well and the teacher keeps messing with my grades.

I look forward to mostly to Exhibition Night,where yours truly works with flames on a gas burner dip a rod into certain chemicals and see the freakish color changes,much more fun in action than on paper.I'm also at a moral vs justice crossroads.I want to see MILK (That new movie a about Harvey Milk,the first openly homosexual politician in California maybe even the U.S. altogether, anyway he was assassinated along with then mayor George Moscone in 1978 but the movie examines more of his life than that which interests me).Now me I have nothing against gays and would like to see what it's about but the movie is R rated.It is in my personal code not to watch R rated movies,I saw one once it was in class and I didn't know it was R rated(it was about a guy a who hated being a guy and wished to be a dame,so it was transgender that's not reason enough to rate a movie R).Unlike that other R rated movie I was talking about,this one has good reasons like having strong language and sexual stuff. I shouldn'rt judge a movie by some content but yet I can't shake off the idea of all that profanity and smutt.I just dunno what to do? HOnest answer I don't want any "don't see it you'll go to hell" or "God will hate you for watching it" none of that South Baptist stuff.


Other than that just 3 weeks til my birthday, and a week til' Christmas give or take.I've also been listening to Pillage by Obert Skye,interesting audio book and uh that's about it. Oh and if that Camp Pillow of mine takes over again lemme know

The Tale of Ultimate Boredom

No the character of this tale is not named Ultimate Boredom.Such a character might be much more interesting than this.

No it is the desperate struggle of Uber Psycho Tom as he tries to survive the final 2 weeks before the holidays and the 5th week before his birthday

He barely survived the grueling NDV rehearsals of doom which he loathed to death.He had better things to do rather than play the instrument which bound him for 8 years and walk up a huge hills with tons of weight on him [backpack and violin]. He finally finished a trilogy of a review of mascots and after the concert ate as many cookies and goldfish and crackers with cheese and of course soda.No Irn-Bru sadly but a disgusting potion of Ginger Ale,Dr. Pepper,Sprite, Fruit Punch,and Diet Coke kept him satisfied.

He is currently doing his homework and asked me to blog this nonsense.Being the sadisitic person I am I went right ahead so he could kill readers through boredom.

He worked hard on the CASHEE(California High School Exit Exam) while I well I just sat back and played Battalion wars on his GameCube.

"Uh-oh" I said " here he comes I'd better run"

Sorry for all that odd narration folks it was that dang Camp Pillow of mine wasn't it.Well he forgot to mention that school was a hell hole today

"Isn't it always?"Camp Pillow said

"Yes but this one was really boring"I replied back to my Camp Pillow " Now go"

Ugh! sorry again,well at least I'm not up at 4 am doing some weird project like Seagull or obsessing over some Pokemon theme like Asm

"Much worse" Camp Pillow replied.

I"ll go deal with that annoying pillow and my laptop savings knowing him he probably ate all my cash.

I"ll end this weird post now

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY: Wouldn't you rather be behind a book?

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 18

Amazing,..... To think in 3 weeks all of the Christmas excitement will be over and in not quite 6 weeks I will be 16.

In midst of this I have to perform in a concert on Sunday and go to 2 rehersals. 2 dumb rehersals with no real food.I've said this before,...I think. I #$%^ hate the violin[If I don't use comic curses I'll use real ones and I'm trying to cut back on that] and I've been forced into giving up my time for 8 years which means means I don't get to see some of the friends I'd like to see and I'd be stuck with Leffler.

Luckly each concert has a lot of goodies and this one is right by Chinatown which means lots o' pork bao.Pork Bao is like this huge doughy but sweet roll[eat hot or it tastes like glue] then has a sweet layer of pork on the inside.


Since I hate it so much but I have no choice I'm thinking of charging her for it

Ok done with that

Currently beatin' Sonic Adventure 2, and last watched Ever After.

The Birthday Countdown Continues

Last post I made there was 9 weeks left,now 2 weeks have passed.

Ok on Tuesday basically it was a good day.I being the psycho I am decided to try something less sadistic.I wish I could say it was simply to creep y'all out. No Ma wanted me to get my Duty to God award out of the way so I had to do a project.Me I don't see the point of doing all this annoying scripture memorizing(except the sacrament prayers those I should memorize) all just for one little award.The project was to make dinner for the homeless at the Downtown Men's Shelter.

Me and my crew made a tasty Lentil Soup,Salad,Brownies[ok ok Ma did that part] and we made enough for ourselves and the 70 homeless guys and workers.After that we watched an NCIS,I fell asleep at the most critical part and was like hey what???

After NCIS(That's on Tonight) I collapsed and it was Wednesday.For most of the day I hung around the house trying to beat Sonic Adventure 2.Good game check out my review on my other blog.I also posted a review of my top and bottom Mascots and shall until I get to the worst and tops.After that the computer was taken back to the shop.

In the night we left for Walnut Creek. I mostly played Super Smash Bros. Melee,but I finally saw Kung Fu Panda and Iron Man that kept me up til' 1 the next day. 3 hours later KB(or Ketchup-Bun becuase Madi's the only person I know who'd eat buns plain with ketchup) woke up and I didn't sleep much after that. So all the cousins were put on a hike up Mt. Diablo,I found out Greg was going on a longer,less wussy hike.I opted for that one instead.We walked from Clayton[which Colson is based off of in one of Mull's novels] up 5 miles to where the others started. It was at first flat but eventually got steeper and steeper til' you wondered if it would ever end.By the time we reached the top it was so foggy it wasn't funny. I got back and managed to get home before the other guys. I enjoyed a game of Spud with Asm,Emmza,Sahara, and all the other cousins my age.Then Aunt Tina came over. I dunno about the others but I went crzy with all the food and still wasn't satisfied. We had a good little gathering.Then went pumpkin pie crazy.

I went home with Tina,she stayed overnight with us and nothing exciting happened on Firday.

On Saturday we cousins gathered again this time for bike ride.Ok the route was annoyingly flat and boring and the destination was a train museum.Now to someone who likes trains or a parent raising someone who likes trains that's interesting.But to others it's like ghoing to a box factory where boxes are made or listening to Sonic R's music aka DULLSVILLE!!!!!!! I'll admit I was impressed with size an execution but come on it's just trains.Then we biked to Jamba Juice,I biked back drinking my Chocolate Mo'od,sometimes with no hands.

After all this excitement posting this blog is probably the most extrordinary thing worth mentioning. Oh yeah and I got a new video game "Battalion Wars"

7 weeks left til good ol' 16.

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 17

Well so far this has been a great weekend.

Well Friday was just a regular school-day except I think my brain opened up my head and left on a trip to Aruba.No I haven't been thinking about Aruba. Anyway, I came to school yes but instead of loitering around Downtown I went to Ms. Schneider's classroom to get some help on Algebra(I did so on Thursday as well).Then come to the test I had no idea what to do,I absorbed the 411 in the morning well and did some problems but some how it leaked.Ugh! I can't afford a D or lower. Sigh! the grading system is sooo arbitrary I mean come on the homework doesn't do much on the system tests are everything!.Then I failed the Spanish quiz.

After getting home I hung around and watched The Pacifier.

Today I got up at 5:30 am,seminary time and headed off with Uncle Greg to Mt. St. Helena, no not Mt. St. Helens. It was a good 10 miles there and to the trailhead. On the way up there was a memorial to Robert Louis Stevenson and it marked where he used to have a cabin(Honestly I don't get what's so great about this guy what did he do other than write Treasure Island anyway?).Then it was a long but gentle climb to the South Peak. Then though the road continued, there was a seperate trail but it joined up with the road and saved some time(Dubbed as "The Mother of all Shortcuts" by yours truly). Anyway eventually we got to the top,it was a really good view. You could see the ocean,Clear Lake,the whole of Napa Valley,Mt. Lassen,Mt. Shasta, and the Sierra Nevadas. On the way down we ran into Eric and his troop(can't help but pity him,having to drag them all the way up and wait on em'). Then it was a good 100 mile drive back home and uh now I've been mostly hangin' around and posting this.

Pretty good hike,certainly recommendable,Mt. Diablo has nothing on this nor doth Mt. Tamalpias.

9 Weeks Left

That's right,just 9 weeks until........ until what????

Oh right MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

In 9 weeks I will be 2 years from voting,and being an adult sa'weet.

My grades are returning to normal

On Monday I walked down in the cold at night to the End of Season Banquet.If I can remember correctly,there was crispy chicken,pesto pasta,lasagna, ginger ale,Coke, cookies, casserole and uh brownies as well. After the banquet came awards for ahletes who miraculously kept a high GPA how I do not know.After that was a slideshow of all the races. I swear I looked like an old man with mostly bones.

Everyother day was mediocre and unexciting

I also am leading a Homeless Shelter dinner,I'm supposed to make Lentil Soup and Salad after gong to an earlier one I decided to use the same recipe

Other than that I've got a hike up Mt. St. Helena and Thanksgiving not much else

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 16

Not too much has happened to me since my last blogs just days after the election. No need for politics now it's over and that's it.Anyway here's what happened

On Saturday Ma' students had a recital,most of it was pretty good,the best part was Asm left on a walk.I'm sorry but she was snide jerk that took things waaay too seriously.The worst part was waiting to eat considering the dishes were: Lentil Soup,Saffron Shrimp and Rice,lots of crackers and spreads,Brownies,and cookies. Also the computer went to the shop.(Otherwise this would be Issue 17)

On Sunday I had to go a damn rehersal I'm so pissed why can't I just quit that stupid instrument.Ok I like Classical music yes,but seriosly having my time taken,being blackmailed and all sorts of heartache for a stupid instrument and for what so some people can say" Oo look he's good,he knows what he's doing"?If I had come from a family of non-musicians my life might actually be a little happier.Wish I had a chainsaw right now

On Monday and Tuesday I mostly watched Psych and listened to Icelandic currently the only hings that stick in my head are how to say "I am called Thomas","I speak English", "I only speak English and Spanish" and "Do you speak English"(Eg heiti Thomas) (Eg tala ensku) (Eg tala bara ensku og spaensku) (Talarthu ensku?)[Once again I can't figure out to get the Icelandic characters so I have to make do with similar English letters and blends].And I also ran on my home courses.NCIS was great and uh yeah that covers those days

Wednesday and Thursday were boring school days I need not type more

On Friday,first I got to seminary by car rather than bike,walked to school with Genun,Zary, and Asm and we had a discussion on if nerds could save the world pretty random but oh well.After that I read the paper through most of 1st period since it was chaos, a mediocre 2nd period but hey with a humorous chemsitry techer it helps.For 3rd period I read the paper cuz' I had nothing for class.At lunch I left school with the Cross Country team for the final race,I did so well and I was so damn good but my shoes came untied twice I got as far ahead as I could,tied it up and hoped it would last,it didn't so I just tightened my foot to keep in the shoee and it was on a downhill so I got passed a bit and yes I double-knotted them before and in the middle of the race.The Berkeley varsity killed the other teams,even El Cerrito(YEs Asm if Layna gets to obnoxious you can use this)

Now I got up wrote a blog on my other blog,made somepancakes and hot chocolate,read the newspaper, and um here I am posing this

P.S. No Bumper Sticker of the Day

How Did Indiana End Up Blue?

Yesterday was the election.

For at least a year.All the hot stuff was anything about Obama or McCain.In the last few months Palin came into the political scene.Anything that was in the least bit controversial about Palin was fired up and blown outta proportion.

At last it is all over,because the election is over who won. That's right OBAMA won and totally beat McLame. In his speech he talked much about what needs to be done and he told of an anecdote about a 106 year old woman who finally voted,who had waited so long for a black president,who had waited so long for the Civil Rights Movement to succeed.

I also noticed McCain supporters booing McCain every time he mentioned Obama in his speech,while Obama supporters clapped when he mentioned McCain

My outlook on this......

Well it's about bloody time,this is history and I will proud to be around to see the 1st biracial president,I cannot go into more detail the reasons should be obvious.

As for the Props I know or care most about

2: Yes (The outcome was yes,I am so happy,in mock and real election results it was all agreeable)

4: Yes (The outcome was no,I can't understand why it would be no,I mean come on someone mature should have some clue on what is going on,I know I'd hate it if my daughter died from an abortion I didn't know about because I wasn't notified)

6: N/A(The outcome was yes,I know much about but don't care too much)

8: No(Outcome:Yes why because students didn't get to really vote,if students voted it woulda' been NO! I don't understand yes at all,Marriage is sacred yes well so what gays should have access anyway,now it's not just illegal it's no longer a right,I can't believe this was even on the ballot,so what if I'm a Mormon and the rest of the church supports it,in WWII did German Mormons support the Nazis??? YES!!!!!,How about racism in who gets priesthood??? In fgact only 30 years ago did  non-whites get priesthood.Homosexuality is not a sin,calling it a sin is like calling being a different race than white a sin,oh my I guess I'm a sinner forever because I'm Italian to,oh wait I'm not)

Well enough of rants that's all

-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S. I looked at the electoral map for President Election and Indiana was blue for Obama,that state ususally votes red,last time it voted blue was in 1964

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 15

Hey Guys!It's been....not so long since I last blogged oh well a few things of interest have happened

Thursday: After school,Basically I go to Cross Countruy,normal practice right???? WRONG! intstead the team runs up Dwight to it's end which on a Marin Steep hill,Lombard Street(Crookedest Street) hill for those who don't know about Marin.Not to bad I suppose but when you're going in regular running gear it's pure murder.Had to run up and down the hill 5-6 times.After returning back to school,I overhear of pies in the Good Morning Cafe Room.after getting my stuff I head over to the room and I find it's crowded but there is alot of Chili,Pumpkin Pie,and Corn Bread and I also find  that girl.The meal was delicious it turned out the chili was made by Cross Country team mebers of the workshop who were to injured to run. Her'es the dialog between me an the girl

Her:Do you hate it when I abuse you?
Me: Uh,no no I don't hate it
(It's not really abuse it's more like a sort of game)
Her:Do you like it
Me:Yeah
Her: You know I only hit you because I want to be hit back,will you?
Me:Yeah
Her:And do it when I least expect it

(I like people with a nature like that, KB's(Madi's) sorta like that,old pen pal Silva was like that,really I could go on I choose not to)

After that I left for home

Friday:At seminary I was piecefully trying to master scriptures,when Zary and Asm left,leaving Genun and myself.Then  too his chair and decided to sit at the table for once,what does he do he shoves me.then I shove him to get balance and face punched him I shouldn't have but it wasn't that hard.This was after an argument between my lying down and his homework doing.Eventually Mr. Mike chewed him out,silly Mr.Mike all it did was make him cry.Then I got blamed.I told Dad my side of the story.Ya'  know what I am damn frickin' sick of ya'll pointinmg out how I lie and how Zary and Genun and Asm always sit at the table and you assume I do nothing.You know what I don't have good memory for stuff like oh what was the last lesson,it's often either vague or gone so Shut your bigmouth up ASM for claiming I don't pay attention!!!!!!!!!.After that I was forced to apologize for somehing I had little to do with so I left on my bike.By the time I was ready to apologize to Zary for what I actually did I couldn't find him.I still have to apologize

Today: I hung around eating up the candy,watching Psych and playing video games here and at Leffler's.Along with that I'm still trying to kill this cold,rest my genetically tight heels,and blog(My latest posts are a review of Batman Begins and this one)

Can't believe Election Day is soooo close.Somehow I bet Mccain and Prop. 8 will suceed,of course that's just my pessimism.

More mediocrity

Wow this has been an odd week

FIrst of all the Ward Halloween Party sucked,next I dunno what to be for Halloween not that I'm gonna trick or treat or anything.

Doing so might be too predictable and I can't tarnish my reputation as being unpredictable either

The stuff from last post"Annoyed" continues and everyone one is too political

Ok on a personal blog,personal poilitical and religious views are exceptable,but honestly at school it's ridiculous.It's seems at every turn it's always "Who are you voting for?" or "You don't support McCain do you" or something against MCCain voters

Personally I would never vote for McCain or anyone of those Elephants,but hey a little respect would be nice for those that do

Next time anything political or religious comes up I'm just going to "Can you keep a secret" they'll probably answer yes then I'll say"So can I" I stole that from Dear Abby but hey it's good advice

I haven't been able to run much either,it seems everytime I try my heels get sprained or my calf goes bezerk.Dad says I have the right body for this but I'm not inclined to believe that anymore

Today the whole class looked at the General election stuff,quite interesting some of it,I had no idea the Peace party existed who is the candidate,gasp! Nader,tha guy who's run in all of them for 30 years and never has a chance.

My outlook on important Props

2:Yes
4:Yes
6:No position
7:No
8:No

Since this is personal I can and will put such views,enough of this mediocrity


-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S. Why is the Republican Party called the GOP(Grand Old Party) when the Democratic party existed 20 years earlier making it Older and since Kennedy was a member Grander)?

No Bumper Sticker of the Day

Annoyed

Why me why,why WHHHHYY???????

I'm getting so sick of being asked all sorts of things that I don't wanna answer.

At 4th period today the usual came out. FirstI hjave a normal coversation then I get things like

"Do you smoke"naturally being the good religious person I say"Uh no"

Then next I know"Are you a virgin?" "Have you ever kissed a girl do you want to?" "Have you ever had a girlfriend" I had to lie just to get some peace "You like Catie don't you" it gets sooo tedious annoying and uncomfortable I''ve said hat 1000 times

Society leaves no room for people who'd rather wait a bit,look I know I mentioned tha girl yes I know but it's not concrete and I'd like to keep it that way,it just makes things less heartbraking and simpler.

I'm sick of being coupled and compared enough of THAT!!!!!!!!!!!

Why couldn't I be like Asm and simply not need to deal with this because it never happens?????

Don't get me wrong I have intentions of marrying someday but not now!It sucks to be a liberal with morals it's like the scorn from mormons for being liberal and scorn from liberals for not flocking to weed and all that other crap

I advise No on Prop. 8 and to vote on Barack Obama,after that no real political suff

-Uber Psycho Tom

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY:Politicians are like diapers,both should be changed and for the same reason

P.S.Despite advising Barack Obama,I only put that up because he's better than McLame I mean McCain whoops!If I wasn't trying to get practice for the 2012 election I wouldn't be advising any politician because they're all the same usually.

The Monkey World Weekend Edition: Issue 14

It's been a while since I blogged

Here's what's happened

Monday: It's Indigenous People's Day,I do nothing of importance

Tuesday:I attempt to heal grades,pretty ordinary after that

Wednesday:Aw yes this day a fire leaked out on campus,causing everyone to have to leave campus and cancel everything.Pretty scary but well it was minor and it happened in one of the bathrooms

Thursday:Tilden race,I did pretty well I felt proud

Friday:Another  fire thing,this time just to the football field ut still thus making it the 10th time thge alarm has gone off in the whole year and 6th time the whole month

Today was anmother race,in Hayward this time I was last to race so I waited there for hours and now I have a pounding headache.Oh well my homework's done.

I've been watching utube videos of homemade consoles,where people make their own portable adaptations of contemporary consoles.Just imagine a portable Xbox.I haven't listened to my Icelandic in ages and yeah.Watched the debate wasn't impressed McLame one bit and Obama just doesn't seem to wanna answer any question about sacrifice.

And please asketh me not abourt my grades,well that's it,Are you dead or bored yet?????

The Monkey World Weekend Edition: Lucky Edition

I'd call it issue 13,but 13 is such a lucky number and I always end up with using13 as my number.

First on the 13th when I am born,it snows,my line  number in 7th and 8th grade was 13,I turned 13 on Friday the 13th,the year I turned 13 was the best....so far.There are 13 books in my favorite series. And though I could go on I think I'll wrap it up.

Anyway on Thursday I failed the Spanish test,watchexd a movie called Mi Familia and had no 6th period because the faulty Fire Alarm system went off every dang second

On Friday,Enviromental Science class sucked. Why? Because it was complete  chaos,not unlike last years Spanish Class actually.I then decided to read Orson Scott Card's "Enchanted" which is  currently a let-down. The characters feel so dang flat.Ivan is in a cocoon,Katerina is a jerk,Dmitiri sucks,and the king seems to accepting.Also  Dr. Mendeleev must've time traveled and tried to look like my Chemistry teacher.He almost had me fooled but nope I knew it wasn't Mr. Robertson after all he  was supposed to absent.


Today I did some homework then went to the ACCRC where helped fix computers.I noticed a lot of modems,and motherboards, and screws and CPU's.Then I had nothing to so I along with Genun and Zary went to another building and tested out a video game.It was called OPEN ARENA.After that I got a ride and then walked the rest of the way to Leffler's house and he had Super Mario Kart.MMM what a game one of favorites

And that's about it

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY: Good Planets are hard to find

A quick sum up

Well heres a quick sum up of what I've done

Ok on Sunday, We all celebrated Granny's birthday all of us made different pizzas. Who was there ok we have Uncle Greg and Aunt Karen,Christy and Danny and their little child Goosie who leearned the concept of Bonk!

On Monday uh....Nothing

Tuesday someone asked me if I'd ever rape someone now they's all up in my face and it was geing on my nerves.Now being to the psycho I am I say "Only they's all up in my face like you or if they's tryin' to rape me",so I'm defying the 13th Article of Faith whatever the reaction was what I needed.And another tedious boring debate between Obama and McCain,lets face it an old fart who owns 7 houses calls his opponent "that one" and picked a hockey mom with little knowledge of the outside Alaska at the wrong time has no chance.

TodayI biked down to seminary,read the paper which had an amazing Food Scetion,helped make ruled for the anarchy History Class since Mr. Peck decided to see if we the students could make rules,after that nothing,then at 1:30 in the middle of a test I leave for Cross Country meet,one problem the bus is an hour late.After thatI was exhausted and fell short of my own expectations.That was one of the cruelest courses ever


That's it,well are you bored yet? Dead?!?

Dang it I must be failing at my job.

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue 12

Like I said after 10 the number is no longer written and since the 11th edition was the 50th post,the rule is now in order.

So yeah I watched the debate between Palin and Biden which are of course John McCain and Barack Obama's running mates and well I was somewhat impressed with Palin she was going downhill until now,still she was clearly no match for Biden,I mean she didn't answer half the questions.

The beginning was quite odd though,it started off with "Can I call you Joe?".

I enjoyed the Huckleberry Trip,maybe because I went crazy with eating Huckleberries.I met some odd freshdudes and the games were odd but interesting

And then came the exhausting Cross-Country race which though wasn't too bad at first,it took a toll on my heels

Today I helped clean Granny's windows and lighten the weight of the Milky Way bags he heh heh after that I went to General Conference at church and came home and here I am boring you to death with my tedious,repetitive,adevntures

WAIT you're not bored?

DRAT! better luck next time

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY: Buckle up,it'll make it harder for the aliens to abduct you

The 1st of December,I mean October

Seriously why did they add July and August,all it did was simply make the latin prefixes for ech number 7-10 go up 2, I mean come it used to look like

-January
-February
-March
-April
-May
-June
-September
-October
-November
-December

and add more days to each month make 365.25

enough of that thought

Here is how my week has looked

Pros:

-Lack of homework
-New running shoes becasuse my old ones are wearing out too quickly
-Mr Peck's Project[because I know what to do and it seems fun]
-Late Start

Cons:

-Mr.Peck's Project[Cuz' I only have school hours too get my data down]
- Grade Depression[I'm getting the worst grades ever,and of course when you look down the road of what could happen you can get seriously depressed]
-Subs that don't really know the subject
-Proposition 8[worst and most uncaring,cold,insensitive prop ever]

However my grades could step up,but I'm seriously scared becuse any D grade means I have ta' take the class again.I also have a nice field trip and Cross-Country meet as well

-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S.The 1st of December,...I,I,I mean October has been great,I got homework to do

The Monkey World Golden Edition

Normally I'd call this the 11th Weekend Edition,but since this is the 50th post,since this blog started June 13th,5 months after my 15th birthday. Naturally I must call this the Golden Edition

Anyway I finally got a haircut,and have finally caught up on Warriors by completing Eclipse,The Rise of Scourge,and Tigerstar and Sasha.

Tigerstar made an appearence in all 3 books. In Tigerstar and Sasha he the mate,In Rise of Scourge he is the apprentice that almost kills Scourge but is then seasons and seasons later killed by Scourge which is quite ironic. In Eclipse he still mentors Lionpaw as best he can but thinks the most important prophecy of all is Firestar's poppycock dreams.

Now I only skimmed through Tigerstar and Sasha and probably should read it again but I can give Eclipse and Rise of Scourge a review

My Icelandic s coming along well,I love how pure and unchanged the language has been since 874 A.D when Ingulfur Arnarson and his Irish slaves[shame on him for that] settled what is now Reykjavik.

Anyway check out my reviewing blog @ madmonkey64.blogspot.com or click on Monkey's Worlds N64 Gate on my blogs blog list

Kinda boring blog post for Golden but whatever.

No Bumper Sticker of the Day

I knew Tuesday was too good

I knew Tuesday was too good.

I didn't quite reach the physical problems Asm did.Since I love the depressed faces I'll start with the good

The Good:

-I talked to that girl
-History Class was a breeze
-I'm excelling in 3 of my classes

The Bad:
-I'm failing  in the other 3
-I'm failing in one of them because of some paper I don't recall getting
-My field trip got cancelled
-The cross country meet I got set for was cancelled as well

And of course the bad murdered the good

In other juk NCIS had a killer kickoff,these Palin jokes get funnier and funnier like the ol'Palin has shot Bullwinkle;Rocky attempts suicide' or 'Daughter's preganancy stops hurricane' ok the last one was a bit overdoing it still it's about time the liberal donkeys have a say in stuff.

Probie is no longer a probie now he is Vegas guy.

P.S.The next post is the Golden Post and the 11th Edition,wowza 2 in one

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY: Actions speak louder than bumper stickers

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Ten

Well this is it the final edition with the number written in word.

Anyway I just ran my first Cross-Country race of the season. I did pretty well so much better than last year,my record was about 14:00 for 2 miles,it would seem slow on paper but I'd like to see you try it

I'm still going strong on my Icelandic and Lucy's still treating my bed like it hers

Also the new member dinner was tonight,Mr. Mike campaigned for best dessert. Here's what his slogan was....."Obama promises change,McCain promises change,I promise ICE CREAM" and it was all homemade and delicious mmm.Now personally I don't see any change outta McCain and his false promises but whatever I take Ice Cream any day over any politicians,especially when you got Chocolate Malt,Oreo,Cookie Dough, and basic and true Vanilla.

The dishes were so good though like Gnochi,Corn Chowder,Jambalaya,Tortilla[the Spanish omelet version not the Mexican one).

And now I should get back to homework instead of wasting your time about petty stuff.

BUMPER STICKER OF THE DAY:"It will be a great day when schools get all the money they need and the Air Force has to have a bake sale to buy a bomber"[no offense to any Air Force people or to disrespect Charlie but seriously education needs more money and our defenses don't need that much]

My New Room

Technically it's old hat now,but I've officially moved out of my tiny room with a huge bed.It's ot much bigger but everything can have a place and be in it because I have more room.

I used to have a double bed,now I have more room thanks to my new twin bed,kind of a downgrade I suppose but oh well

I now have 2 closets and a built in bureau lots of shelves and a desk.And since Asm still is downstairs,I finally get some peace and quiet.

I'm not the only one who moved in to my new room though,no I just get the night shift it's Lucy who truly owns the room.And at last I n longer have to listen to the satanic kitty(yes Walker is an evil demon at night)

Oh yeah and the first late start happened,so I got to hang out at home for an extra whopping 2 hours

Also on Saturday is my first Cross-Country race of the year damn it's gone by quickly

Well that's all for now,wait your not dead yet dang it

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Nine

I feel terrible,my last blog though selfish and thoughted was posted on the day I shouldn't have done so,9/11

That was the day when we hit bad karma,2000 died, and the day Americans who were Muslim or Middle Eastern lost all respect.

Like asm's blog,why couldn't it be more like the kiddy book Spotty the Bunny[read asm's blog for plotline] or Dr Seuss'(who though made books for kids hid lots of adult situations like what you'd see inThe Lorax) ok,ok I can't remember the books name but it was about this group of,I can't remember the names but anyway 2 groups of them were segregated because one group had a little green star on their tummy while another group didn't,then some thing came in with a machine which put little green stars on the opressed groups tummy.Naturally they signed up and got stars.All diversity was lost and things weren't right.To fix this they got a new machine removing the stars,so it went back to 2 groups with a small distinction living happily ever after[not trying make it sound like a fairy tale]

Racism is thought to be discrimination by skin color,in reality it is discrimination on what seems to be real but isn't,skin color simply is the first thing that defines race.What is racism ask yourself that.

I suppose what happened 7 years ago was inevitable after all the harsh treatment,Western supremacy,and overthrowng good goverments just to add puppets that turn us into WALL-E humans down the road(The Shah in Iran anyone,or maybe the assaination in Guatemala,the dictator installation in Kuwait),and religious discrimination.It's kind of ironic to because the people who hijacked those planes were 20 years ago actually trained by The U.S. goverment to take down Soviets.Don't get me wrong it wasn't right and I'm not siding with the hijackers I'm just reporting one of the motivations


It's even sadder when 3 to maybe 6 people can cause racism.Before 9/11 it was all good(it was there but his couldn' happen in the open so much,That day 3-6 people hi jack planes and BAM every last follower of Islam or person of Middle Eastern descent will mostly likely get things like "America hater" or "terrorist" or"hijacker" spat at them.It would be even more disgusting if the goverment paid for this to happen[some actuallly believe it's inside,don't worry I don't].I'm still disgusted,they knew it would happen,an attempt actually happened in '95,some betted the airlines hijacked would lose huge money and yeah,it was known but not stopped.


Now to end that controversial, perhaps slightly off but mostly true junk.

This all stirred up after I read Asm's latest blog and read up on a play called Yellowjackets.

-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S. For those wondering I'm not white,I'm Italo-Swede-Scot-Cherokee-German though identify with mostly with my Scottish,Italian,and Swedish backgrounds[maybe that's why I'm a no tough guy].If you think this is too deep and enemy strring do not read

Almost to Saturday

Yes,so close eunnngh! almost there just 1 day left

That's right teacher's have been handing out too much homework,I've found myself working 3 hours at night,0 period,and sometimes lunch.

Because of this I get no sleep,thanks to Walker the evil shadow that must wreck something every morining and come to my window and yowl so loud,so loud that I'm pretty sure you could hear it from Scotland

But of course Asm sleeps through WWIII and doesn' help,sometimes when she does hear she pretends to sleep and still makes me do all the work.Ok first of all I can't help that I bang the door I'm tired,grumpy and frustrated.I've tried keeping it all open and then raccoons enter,I've tried using ear plugs even.

Well I've been too busy to listen to Icelandic,but have just finished Ender's Game and am now reading Ender's Shadow.I actually like Game better but the pint of view is better in Shadow,also got Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Yesterday I played a little bit of Spore and yeah

And the deli people must now surrender to Prosciutto Man,and yes I meditate in the park,go ahead call me sac-religious but is in frickin' Mormon doctrine that all religion's have some truth and it says nowhere,I repeat NOWHERE......that meditating is a false apostate idea,plus it keeps me calm

The 1st School-Day Monday

Ok this is the first Monday of school in BHS and it was a mediocre day

Heres the span of what happenned from when I posted Weekend Edition Issue 8 to te end of this here post:

1.I found my Icelandic Book and CD's and am now studying 2 foreign languages

2.I went to a sponsorship where a hoops shooter was pledged on average $.30 per shot and he shot a lot in 15 mins.

3.I went to some school grounds with BF and a pal of his and ran into my pal Talia's little brother(she never told me she had a brother)

4.I went to a boring rehearsal,darn VSF

5.I listened to Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy,wow what a book I should read it now

6.I reunited myself with Yoshi's Island[do not confuse this with Yoshi's Island DS],NES originals Super Mario Bros. 2 and 3,naturally they were on an emulator becuase few people have NES or SNES anymore

7.A new seminary techer who I'll call Probe for now since he's on probation by my standards

8. I twisted my ankle[or at least pulled a muscle] at Cross-Country so I spent my afternoon in the training room with an ice pack instead of running

9.I killed you by boredom of monotonous words

10.I ended this post

-Uber Psycho Tom

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Eight

Finally the weekend is here.Basically I've been getting up at 5,leaving for seminary at 6 and then leaving school at  5:30 or 6 and getting home at 6:15 or 6:45 and getting into bed at 11 thanks to homework and then I can't finish it in order to get a wink of sleep so I usually finish all homework during lunch.

Because this has been going on,I've been needing to catch up on sleep. Anna being so fortunate doesn't have this problem and could go to Santa Cruz for the youth conference. Whatever,I've been there time and time over besides we weren't allowed on the rides last time in the 2007 conference.


Yesterday some relatives came over for  dinner and I had great time,Lucy of course wouldn't get enough of the women guests. The food was delicious mmm Mashed Potatoes and Sole.

I'm currently studying Iceland.I'd show the flag butI don't know how to put pictures on my blog.So picture it like this,imagine a white cross put on its side with red painted inbetween and blue on the outside of this cross.Icoulda' just said reverse red and blue from the Norway flag but none of you might know what it looks like.

The only current words in the Icelandic language I know are Geyser(yes that word was originally Icelandic),Reykjavik(Smoky Bay) Foss(Waterfall) Jokull(Glacier)Fjorthur(Fjord) and Myvatn(Midge Lake).I'd know more but I lost that language book

Here are some well known facts of Iceland: Bjork came from there,Extremely volcanic,Lotsa' geysers,only gets 4 hours of sun in the winter and only 4 hours of darkness in the summer,It's greener than Greenland, and no snakes,and Reykajavik is the most northernly national capital of the world.

Iceland's anthem is called O Guth Vors Lands or God of Our Land

Icelandic

O guth vors lands! O lands vors guth
Ur solkerfum himanna hynta ther krans
Thinir herskanar,timanna safn Fyrir ther er einn dagur sem thusund ar
og thusund dagu,ei meir
eitt eilithar smablom meth titrand tar
sem tilbithur guth sinn og deyr
Islands thusund ar
Islands thusund ar
eitt eilithar smablom meth titrand tar
sem tilbidthur guth sinn og deyr

English

Oh god of our country! Our country's god
We worship thy name in its wonder sublime
The suns of the heavens are se in thy crown
By thy legions,the ages of time!
With thee is each day a thousand years
Each thousand years but a day
Eternity's flow'r with it's homage of tears
That reverently passes away
Iceland's thousand years
Iceland's thousand years
Eternity's flow'r with it's homage of tears
That reverently passes away


This is one of the few anthems I can think of that seems more like a hymn rather than something overtly patriotic.

I suppose you could call this obsession my answer to cousin Becca's obsession with Wales

Cross Country

Ok yesterday,........ uh nothing happenned except I got sick and couldn't do any homework

Onto this morning at 5:00 am,I got up recovering from the migrane and got a smidge of homework done

Seminary was great,I actually stayed awake the whole time and we read a little of 1&2 Timmy

I'm not looking forward to the book of The Rapture

After that I took my bike to school where I go chased by a bus.Then just finishing homework and classes

Cross Country was where it got interesting,first I ran all 5 laps instead of 4,of course I took forever and got onto stretches last.After that,the team went down to the bottom of Ohlone Park and we all stretched. My record went up by 20 seconds by the end

Finally I got home and now here I am typing this post,am I have almost reached the Golden Post

Also I am having fun exploiting McCain and Palin for there every little flaws,for example the only argument against Obama now is that he isn'tWASP.Where as against McCain is a whole lotta' junk

Labor Day

At last Labor Day is here, a break from school for a day.

This homework is getting on my nerves,I don't even remember how to do half of it,thank goodness the easy stiff is done.

I am currently reading Ender's Game,excellent book but I haven't even gotten half way through it.

 All I know is I'm at odds with his History assignment. I'd work on it but I forgot how to do it,the Chemistry assignment not so much.

I need to take advantage of this easy week


Oh well I've also completed Super Mario Bros. 2 and Star Fox 64(excellent games),that's it

3rd School-day blog

That's right Freshman Friday has arrived. That means Freshmen beware,cuz' every grade goes after them with eggs.

An egging happenned after the bus stop and all they got was sophmores. They almost got me, I'm tired of being mis-labeled as freshmen.

Scottish Games are tomorrow, I can't wait

Still I wish I could transfer out of Enviromental Science class

oh well

So yeah this school day wasn't exactly exicting

Re-scheduled

Yesterday I got a phone here is what I was told "Your child Thomas May was absent for one or more periods". I just hung up and said to myself"screw that I was there". Then at sixth period right before the bell rings I get a schedule paper,it says my First period is Enviromental Science. For the past 2 dfays I have been going to Ceramics and enjoying it and had it on my paper. I talk to Trimlett.

She had the nerve to change my favorite class into a class I probably took at Scout Camp first year in favor of an internship.


So now the only enjoyable class has been axed,Math is getting worse,Cross Country is eating my time and seminary in the morning,not to mention every other person seems to starts school  after Labor Day and I bet they end at the same time.

Go ahead call me a pessimist,I don't care I have every right. The teachers expect too much,my favorite class has been cut,and extracirricular stuff kills the rest

The death of Summer,.....til' the next one

It's official SUmmer as I know it is dead til' next year. My school day was half-baked, some of the classes were great,others seemed to hard and stressing and then Cross-Country eats away the rest of my day.


The Good Classes:

1.Ceramics(That's right a pottery class)
2.Spanish 3/4 (I think I'll do Swahili next year)
3.Chemistry

The Classes of Despair

1.Algebra 2(I feel like an idiot,I can't remember a thing in Algebra I shoulda' taken the first)
2.World History(Word on the street has it this teacher has only given 3 A's)

and I have no likes or dislikes to the final which is Literature

After the final class I headed off to the library right when I realized it was Cross Country.(2 hours of straight running) not to mention the backpack is a brick full,making biking from distances from the bus stop seem like Mt. Everest.


This year is gonna be either the greatest year or total hell.

R.I.P 2008 Summeryou were relaxing and great

The Penultimate Day to School

Enough of Day 2,it's much too obvious and depressing.

Sadly enough school starts Wednesday. On the other hand I started this blog right after school,Graduation to be exact.

After attending the SSJE(School for Social Justice and Ecology)potluck after posting The Weekend Edition. I know who my teachers are and have explored the rooms so I figure,eh might as well get it over with. Plus as the Legendary Prosciutto Man, I can bug the deli by ordering you guessed it a prosciutto sandwich.

Also Cross Country run was great, I ran straight to the rock park which is about 2 miles one way.Lotsa' newbies this year

This school year will test my ceramics skills as well.Summer was extremely packed and the last weeks were boring.I guess this is a loose-loose situation

That's all

-Uber Psycho Tom

The Monkey World Weekend Edition: Issue Seven

Well it's official,this is the last  Summer weekend(technically speaking though Summer ends September 21st but it doesn'ty feel like Summer because it's blistering hot[that's right 'Indian Summer ' is hotter than Summer hee-uh in these parts')

Either way I'm both sides, I want to see what the classes are like,get out of boredom and feel like I have reason to actually be down and the track and I can go out more for luch(usually to the burger place across the street or the deli and every blue moon the Pizza place across from the deli)

On the other hand,I won't be able to sleep for 11 hours,I'll be out of the house longer than full time adults(12.5 hours precisely),not as much video game and computer time,and no long gourmet style lunches like Tomato Soup with Black Beans and Fried Salami

So like I said it's mixed.Seminary I don't look forward,too. Yes,yes Mr. Mike is a great teacher but still

It's also a week before the Scottish Games,where I can finally get some Irn Bru,meat pies,fish and chips, and all that other good stuff I  haven't seen since I went to Scotland

Issue Seven, all I can say is,this is not a lucky weekend

-Uber Psycho Tom

Final Friday's Thoughts

Good news,Walker who left the yard for 2 days has returned(that's not his usual and I was getting worried)


I said I sorta had these not-so-black- and white feelings for someone right(Squirrelfights feelngs to Ashfur). Well unfortunatley there is this other girl(no I don't like this girl in that way) and she has my email and stuff,but Idk how to break it to her. Fun to listen to and hang out with,she seems to want more. I'll call her Skor Bar

I don't want to be offensive,everybody who knows the 2 of us think we'd be a great couple. I don't want to think that far. I want to be on the safe side until I'm not just 16 but until I feel ready which I am not currently

I'm bringing that up thanks to continous calls in the afternoon

On a better note another family came for dinner and the little guy(Eric) really likes video games and everything was delicious

I wish I had an Irn Bru right now

-Uber Psycho Tom

These final days are killing me

These days are a guillotine.I don't want to get beheaded by it but I have to so I want it to come down quickly,which it's not.

At least when school starts I can feel justified in getting a pass. I can eat out for lunch,go to the library and of course my day is packed

Sadly that means fewer hours of video games,less siesta time and more rush and of courser seminary(that sucks if you don't know who the teacher is),.

And no do not recommend Twilight,that's just not my kind of book it's a sappy book of weak characters,sexual obsession gone to far,and not enough deaths(Why did Jimmy have to die,the villains were better characters)[It lacks the darkness of Lemony Snicket, the romance  and death amount of Warriors,or the plot of Fablehaven]

Cross Country however has been useful. It makes me hungrier(good feeling),feel fresher, and of course I've done something that will affect my health.

My outlook on the Cola Wars

 It seems every industry gains a rival.For cars, GM vs. Ford;for Shakespeare, Montagues vs Capulets;for Simpsons, Principal Skinner vs Bart Simpson; for video gamers SEGA(or Sony) vs Nintendo.

But one well known one that has actually led to deaths(other than Montagues vs Capulets) is Pepsi vs Coke.(People actually died in Thailand cuz' of such a rivalry)

Both are tooth-killers.If health is the concern  Coke's the one becuase there seems to be more sugar in Pepsi.If monopolies are your concern try Pepsi because the company owns less.

Personally I  like Coke.I quit Pepsi drinking in cold turkey(just that soda specifically)

But non-cola wise I'd opt out of Pepsi or Coke beverages in favor of Irn-Bru. Irn-Bru if you didn't read my June blogs is an orange soda with a slightly salty flavor but mostly like Cream-Soda and wax lips combined.

Cola is not my type of soda at all I rather have Cream Soda or the Beers that aren't beer(Root Beer and Ginger Beer)

Bringing this up because everybody who has had a cola drink has an unspoken outlook on it whether it's Coke, Pepsi,both or neither

What's yours?

Monkey World Weekend Edition: Issue Six

Well here it is Issue Six. I've just returned from camp and have finished off watching a utube video called

"Food Fight" which is basically food repesenting countries

The meals are

Hamburger as USA
Sausages and Pretzels as Germany
Matza as the Jewish victims
Fish and Chips as UK
Borscht as Russia
Kebabs as the Middle east

and that's all I remember right now



really funny check it out


So here was the good from camp

1.Camp Fires
2.Merit Badge Clsses
3.Open Shoot
4.Candy
5.Black Powder Rifles and Tomahawks
6.Hammock siestas
7. Not as many Yellow Jackets


Now the bad

1.The outhouses
2.The food[at first it was edible but then it went downhill by the day,i'd rather have stale oatmeal than that crap]
3.The conversations [Most of the time everyone was talking about sexual stuff and uh gayness accusations,no real stuff beyond that]
4.Archery Range distance
5.Not as many Wild Turkeys

Oh yeah and I capsized meself in the middle of the lake on purpose[yes it was fun]. This year was the most dissappointing,but nevertheless I was never bored soI guess I won out

That's all for now

-Uber Psycho Tom

Untitled

I'll keep this untitled because I gots nothin' to do. It's still to cold to run and my Sisters Grimm books are packed up and I've beat my games.

I've been so bored I've literally just insulted bad video games and read Eragon(that book is good,but it's a read once kind of book).On the bright side camps sttarting tomorrow thus I postpon the Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Six for next weekend.

and yeah that's about it.I've been doing lotsa' yard work but even that doesn't keep me busy.Maybe a review will do it

I haven't the exitcement of having a rival(at least rivals keep you on your toes)

Day 2 til' Camp

What so significant about the second day prior to an event.Me idk I just put the title there.

All I know is  I'm exicted to be outta the house one last time.

Basically,I'm up in Willits for about 8 days gettin' all the Merit Badges  I can done.


What I look forward to:

1.Merit Badge classes
2.Risk games
3.Open climbs at the rock
4. The Wooly Wash
5.Campfires
6.Open shoots

What I'm not looking forward to

1.Yellow Jackets(the are flying insects that sting therefore,my worst,but most irrational fear)
2.Walking up a steep hill 10 times a day
3.The bathrooms(Except for the showerhouses they are disgusting outhouses)
4.Water(I only use bottled water because the faucets churn up orange,rusty water)


So the good outweighs the bad by a lot because I have solutions to the bad

At last,Tuesday is Over

At last it is over Tuesday is dead(until next week).Now  anyhing can happen,I can count on good lucck,maybe I can ressurect he blog list which  I had to delete because it wasn't working,it wouldn't take my to other sites and I don't know how people make those "Friends lists" either

Packing for Scout camp is today and yeah not much else

Check out my other blog which is http:/madmonkey64.blogspot.com/

I hate Tuesdays

I hate Tuesdays,they suck, and just about anything that can go wrong does

I have no books,have played my video games,have watched the movies,and it's too cold to run.

For good reason Sammy Cle.... I mean Mark Twain once quoted"The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco" well you guessed it,it's colder than a San Francisco summer.So it's too cold to run.

Murdering innocent prickly thistles is boring so

And no I will not read Twilight,I've heard too much

I'm done with your time,.......For now

-Uber Psycho Tom

P.S. If I do too much,with Tuesdays luck I'll break a leg

2 weeks til' School

 Why am I talking about school,when there are still 2 weeks of fun left.Oh right becauseI've been on my toes going to all sorts of places.Now I have Scout Camp left for 8 days.


Ok first,it annoys you all

Two,It means I can just hang around without having too much packing

Three,it's the last 2 month,2 week Summer that my High School has might as well get it over with since it's coming to a close

I might as well get my first run over with,expect to see a review today

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Five

I've finally creaed a new blog,don't worry this ones my personal one that records everyday things,asm created a conforums,I woulda' but conforums have a shorter life,take more time, and aren't as personal and I have no idea how to make one[not that I want to]

If you look on "My Blog List" you'll find "Monkey World's N64 Gate"  check it out.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm done wasting time.I've got squirrels to murder,Sisters Grimm to read,and Cross Country practice to do

-Uber Psycho Tom

Home Sweet Home

Well I'm back and it feels good well now all I've got left is Scout Camp  for a week(ironically the same week as Asm's Girls Camp) and  now I can once again resume siestas, video games, and ......running. Well I went to the 4 corners and discoed straight over it.I've also decided to create a side blog specifically for review video games,books,movies,etc(even Cross Country tracks)[Asm suggested conforums but I like it a bit more personal,and I'm to ignorant to make a conforums].

Bookwise I can finally get on with Sisters Grimm, but lack the 4th Fablehaven(not released just yet) and need the 9 trillionth WARRRIORS(best series ever)


And no you'll never see a Twilight review becuase I have no intentions of reading it.

I'll be sad to be leaving Peanut and Hershey(the Utah cousins rabbits)

Yesterday after dinner and an exhausting Cross-Country run,BF(for the last time Best Friend not Boy Friend I's not gay) asked me to play ball,I had nothin else to do why decline,so I headed out and played alittle.Lou(across-the-street neighbor) brought hice neice Fallon(very cute girl,but I already got someone[sorta]) and we hung out for a little while playing basketball with the dogs and then Asm came up and we hung out til' 11.Now it's off to Granny's House(driving us to Oakland at 5 am so it' makes sense to stay beforehand) and yeah not much else

Done wasting a few mins of your life and next post is 9 days from now

Day 2 Before AZ

Day 2 before AZ is right.I've mentioned idk how many times that  I'm off to Arizona for a family reunion.Me,Ma, and Asm leave at 4 am to AZ,hope I can wake up

I mentioned my 10 Poisonous Video Games that make better Toilet Paper(-1/20-0/20) and I also have 2 other video games that make my tops.

I'll start with the good

1.Super Mario Kart[SNES,1992](My second favorite Mario Kart,and with the whole concept rested on this game plus a Challenging Rainbow Road this game gets 20/20 yeah my comparison says different but that'x cuz' 2 things suck,and yeah)

2.Vectorman[Genesis,1995](I love the whole plot it's sorta like WaLL-e where humans leave Earth,and it's got might graphics,excellent gameplay,real challenge{I can't get past first level} it's only fair this gets 20/20)

Now for the 10 stinkers

10.Sonic Shuffle[Dreamcast,2000](This game alone could ruin Dreamcast's reputation as the white box with 200 hard-core games,it's not a party game your stuck with cards and annoying minigames ech!)

9.Bubsy 3D[PlayStation,1997](The cat has a smile of molester,you can only walk straight,the world's look like milk cartons made by infants)

8.The Smurfs[NES,1992](Horrible controls,I already hate the characters,and lotsa' lag)

7.Superman 64[Nintendo 64,1999](A shame this ended up on my favorite system,SUperman looks like a log,no buildings,everythings the same color and all you do is fly through rings)

6.Altered Beast[PlayStation 2,2005](The first was ok,but when it went 3D it lost ;plot and everything went monotonous andt he graphics are sloppy)

5.Fight for Life[Atari Jaguar,1996](It's not fighting,it a game that melted it's graphics to soup where you can't do a thing)

4.Captain Novolin[SNES,1992](A retarded character who fights evil pastries and makes fun of diabetes,I love pastries go away)

3.Kabuki Warriors[Xbox,2001](No,plot,bad fighting,and you could KO with with your buttox,a video game that does that isn't just crappy it's despicable)

2.Custer's Revenge[Atari 2600,1983](What a kind of video game makes you be a naked general doging arrows and rape an Indian girl,answer a really bad one that's sexist should be banned from your house)

1The others got 0/20 and Shuffle got .5/20but this is so bad it's got dumped in a landfill,I call it......

E.T.[Atari 2600,1982](What you should do is collect tools to call your aliens home and get off Earth,what you actually di is fall into pits and get bandages for you ears before they bleed from terrible sounds,-1/20)

And like I said they make better Toilet Paper and what's this The Jaguar looks like a Toilet seat and le gasp the PSX looks like a port-potty toilet.If you need to use the bathroom but are too busy playing good games,clean up the mess with these

They're are thousands of others that are bad only 10 make 1 and lower. Like only 12 make 20/20.Those 10 aren't just crappy they don't just have bad characters or graphics or even a stupid plot.Oh no they look really retarded and aren't playable or are too playble(Kabuki Warriors)

Sonic Racer reviews

I was going to review Matilda bu I thought since I just reviewed Mario 3D games and Mario Kart it would be most appropriate to compare them tooooooo......... SONIC's counterparts.Mario is often praised while Sonic ehm! not so much

I'll start off with the racers.(I never compare controls becuae I like controllers and love adjusting)

Sonic Drifts 1&2

Platform:Sega Game Gear
Years:1993&1994
Character Score:5/20(not enough and too basic)
Innovativeness:6/20
Graphics for Time:15/20
Concept:12/20
Presentation:3/20
Average Track Score:3/20
Music:4/20(fares slightly better than Sonic R,after all sometimes silence is golden[I recall it silent at least])

Final:5/20(most mediocre games get this score at lowest to 10,only Seanbaby's Crastravaganza and my"10 Poisonous Video Games That Make Better Toilet Paper")

onto the foot based 3D racing.....Sonic R

Sonic R

Platform:Sega Saturn
Year:1997
Character Score:9/20(I loved the Metal Characters and Super Sonic,not to original but oh well)
Innovativeness:6/20(Foot-based was alright,but nothing real big)
Graphics for Time:12/20(Kinda blocky but I love the color,and someimes it rivals Mario Kart 64)
Concept:14/20(Excellent concept,but I could find ones lightyears better)
Presentation:6/20(It shows a kinda minigame-like and sloppy presentation)
Average Track Score:5/20(I loved Regal Ruin,but the other 4 were total trash)
Music:3/20(Worst music for a video game ever,I hate good Pop as it is,this isn't even good,sometimes silence is golden)

Final:8/20

I have only played the first Sonic Riders so that's the only one I can review

Platform:Gamecube,PlayStation 2,Xbox
Year:2006
Character Score:15/20(this is where Riders fares best,I like the variety)
Innovativeness:6/20
Graphics for Time:10/20(kinda Wind Waker like and Wind Waker was not loved for it's graphics)
Concept:8/20
Presentation:11/20(Mediocre but at least it wasn't sloppy)
Average Track Score:3/20(With the current and all I can't play on them,they're just not playable)
Music:3/20(Dreadfully awful,better than R's but not much)

Final:8/20

Actually I like R better despite the medium score,but somethings in Riders were outstanding,while R was all the same.See the lowest score for Mario Kart was 16/20(80/100) while the lowest score for the Sonic Racers was 5/20(abt.30/100) and yes I've decided for the score mesdium tyo be 20 instead of Famitsu's 40,casual reviewers 5,or standards of 100/10

That's it

A whole lotta Nuttin'

Lke the title says who whole lotta nuttin' is going on.I've beaten my video games,walked a lot,posted too much,and have seen all the movies I intend to see(Ok,ok I still wanna see The Forbidden Kingdom and The Dark Knight) the site is dead,I lost pen pal contact,and Arizona isn't for 3 days agh!.

There are days I wish I was Seth and in such a situation as he in Fablehaven.Then I could see fairies and pixies and brownies,ya' know and life wouldn't be so boring.Spot the fawn is out except he has little horn bumps on the head.I've read Fablehaven and Fablehaven:Rise of the Evening Star and am trying to read Fablehaven:The Great Shadow Plague(or so I think it's called),I can't seem to get into it.


I'll try again,but I wish I had some Sour Patch Kids,Fresca, ahmmock and it was sunny.

You know what,enough of wasting your time,I'm outta' here

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Four

Welcome to the Monkey World Weekend Edition. For this issue I think I'll discuss my day

Ok so far I've walked up the hill after a cup of quality hot chocolate(becuase Music camp had Nestle packets,eck! but hazelnut cream helped).Got a haircut,dropped Dad off at BART for airport,donated to Goodwill, went to Office Depot where I found the laptop of my dreams(Acer Extensa,too bad it has Windows Vista though because ugh! Microsoft really needs to fix Vista,but it's cheap and has everything else).Got 3 movies at movie store(Who needs Comcast,I don't wanna end up like the humans in WALL-E) and watched on utube "WBNA Live '08",hilarious I tell you(No offense butWNBA is really not that good,I don't even like NBA or even Basketball itself).Helped Genun with his Eagle Scout Project and went to a BBQ.

Me and Zary got in a fight when he stole something of mine.I asked nicely,then I demanded then I resorted to more sadistic,gross tactics.Finally he ripped it up,I wasn't going to just start a brawl so I let it go.Then all I did was eat,eat,eat,and eat with some guzzling of water.

Then I took another walk home and now I'm here typing this blog

Thanks for reading THE MONKEY WORLD WEEKEND EDITION and Post 20,comment or die

Music Camp

Well Music Camp is over and I'm back,let's see

1.Rafting on a floatie
2.Chats realted to video games
3.Hikes
4.Concerts and Practice Sessions(it's still music camp)
5.Eating
6.Sleeping
7.Building sand baths
8.Attempted self-burial in sand

That's what I did for 5 days.I can't say much more beacuse not much else happenned to me except a sunburn that covered by whole back.

Well now I have

- A reunion in Arizona
-Utah
-Scout Camp

School almost seems fun after all this excitement

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Three

I'll spell the number out til' I reach 10 but for now the #'s are spelled out.

I think I'll turn this into a WALL-E Review,since all the usual Monkey World Weekend Edition things are packed an earlier post,but you're tired off all this.

If I wasn't a Mormon I probably would've killed someone sghamelessly and brutally,thanks to that though I now just sadistically beat those who get in my way. Enough of his foxdung onto WALL-E

So anyway WALL-E ok heres the synopsis:

Humans have abandoned the dirty landfilled Earth and left WALL-E units to clean the mess,most of them die.And the 5 year cruise becomes 700 years.By then the humans have become lazy blobs who are inanimate objects to robots.Meanwhile on Earth a white robot named EVE and WALL-E meet up.WALL-E is smitten but when she has an odd reaction to a plant,WALL-E must get her back to Axiom,where the humans are.

I'd say this is one of Pixar's best(Like Toy Story 2 and The Incredibles),anyway it looks like a quiet,boring movie but it's really exciting plus they sound so cute. Even if it is boring,cut it slack man,I mean c'mon the main characters din't say much other then "WALL-E,or EVE, or Mo",only the few lazy bolbs talked and they came in at the end.

Animation:20/20
Plot:18/20
Execution:20/20
Character Likeability:20/20

Final:20/20

Next post i dunno when

2.An overnigth at Granny's(not that that's really an ordeal or problem)

6. A few days in Utah(Being a Mormon that's not too bad)

Oh well this is gonna be an adventure.

see ya' I dunno when.

P.S. After this goes to blog limbo comment or die

Copying Beethoven

I watched a movie called "Copying Beethoven".It was about Beethoven's every triumph and failure around the time of the 9th Symphony(1824)

The main character is a woman of 23 named Anna Holtz(potrayed by Diane Kruger[Ben's girlfriend in National Treasure]) who is sent out by theschool she came from to Vienna to work at Beethoven's(Ed Harris) copier(copies and sends out Beethoven's work basically).In the movie Beethoven is a madman,insane despises everyone just about.Ed Harris plays out Beethoven well as does Diane Kruger with her part but the set seemed a little off and it's too loosely based(like 2003 Cheaper by the Dozen or 2005's Pride and Predjudice[the only movie more annoying than this one is Time Bandits w/Lauren Holly as the actress those 2 combo's would be hell].I could certainly get used to Beethoven's suggested (behavior the only part I don't doubt is the drinking).Down to the scores

Presentation:9/20
Kruger's Role:18/20
Harris' Role:20/20
Set:12/20
Execution:17/20

Final:14/20

It certainly doesn't make my top,Rotten Tomatoes gave it 22%(which is equilavent to my 4/20 since I round instead of resorting to decimals) which is extremely underating it but it's not that great either but it's certainly watchable

That's all

The Video to Overnight

For once something I actually planned for Summer came an Overnight at Granny's,You'd think it would be boring, and unexciting and lots'back in my day' stories, but it's not.Lotsa cookies here and movies there.But I'll get to that later I'll start off with Tuesday after the Mario Kart comparison.

Ok so after the Mario Kart comparison I read the newspaper when,BF(once again Best Friend not Boyfriend I'm not gay,and no this is not reverse cycology) came up to my house and both of us went up to the remains of"The Swing".The Swing used to be a fun,long,blue rope swing that went30 feet of the ground at highest but one day,it fell  off and a replacement was put.Oh joy! Back to the fun right???? WRONG it goes a yard off the ground, it's on the lowest branch, and leg holes are now hand holes.

So after that we both headed to the Dixon's house.Those little girls are evil.... they tried to kill me.Since they were leaving we left and watched "The Pacifier",I'll review on a school day when I'm actually around more.Anyway then Leffler(forget Mac Nerd that doesn't stick) came over and we started cane stick fencing(it was fun until it wasn't).A little later Asm,BF,and Leffler came up with an idea to make a utube video.After that I got into all sorts of mayhem.I got all this"don't touch that or I'll shoot my LEGO bazooka at you(I saw it tested it dents aluminum,it hurts) and your "N64 privileges don't the drain".I'm like What a control freak eventually I get sick of his antics and shoot a nerf bullet at the mac and soon leave.After that it's Cross Country practice and then nothing worth potsing except.......... a call from Granny.The call is an invitation for a stay at her place which is cool.

So the next day I get ready to go and we head off to Subway for luch w/ Aunt Jan. After that a good game of cards(Skip-Bo to be precise,and it's not as gay[no offense to gays out there] as it sounds) and then a boring hour of violin practice(sheer torture I play against my will because Ma won't leave me alone about it).Later we haed off to see WALL-E"I'll review that next post,unless I come across a better video game".The only I'll tell you is it's about 2 robots that fall in love 800 years after humans have abandoned Earth and become lazy blobs.Then I jus hang around till dinner.We had a delicious tomato soup with corn in it.After that we watched a movie"Matilda"(which of course is based off of Roald Dahl's book) I'll review that sometime as well.

So then we had breakfast(Hot Chocolate and waffles) and watched"Copying Beethoven" and then another boring practice session and then headed off and here I am now.

Here's my  to review movie list

1.Copying Beethoven
2.WALL-E
3.Matilda
4.The Pacifier

Mario Kart Comparison

Yea 2 posts one day,I'm really going for it I don't intend to post tomorrow and my sister Asm has gone so crazy with her novel "The Stones of Destiny" she must have the computer more so yeah.The novel isn't that bad,but I'm once again posing about a video game comparison(once again non-video gamers don't read on)

Yesterday it was 3D Mario's now it's the best racing franchise(except maybe for Out Run or Crusin') ever it is famous for having the same concept but different niches per game since is debut in 1992.Still don't know?

Music:15/20

Final:16/20(I left out challenge because personalluy haven't played it but I've seen other reviews and seen videos on utube,otherwise it'd be like the others)

Mario Kart 64 wins and Wii is in dead last but I haven't really expierienced it,of the 5 I've played DS appears last

Thus ending this long post and review

Hope you enjoyed(This might be the last thing you see before you doie of WoW addiction)

Super Mario 64 vs Sunshine vs Galaxy vs New Super Mario Bros.

For those who hate video games don't bother reding this post,this one is dedicated to the 3d Mario games

These games are worthy unlike it's clones(playing 3D Sonic is like putting pepperoni in a friut cocktail it can't be done)

Anyway lets start with controls

Winner:Suer Mario 64(everything is manuvered perfectly and that analog stick is awesome)
Runner-Up: New Super Mario Bros.(Pretty much a 2 button game,sadly not a huge moveset but,it's not horrible)
Ultimate Loser:Super Mario Galaxy(Too much shaking,plus it just doesn't feel as smooth)


Graphics(for time)

Winner:Super Mario Sunshine(Dreamy graphics,brightly colored Mario looks great
Runner-Up:Super Mario Galaxy(They are advanced for Wii and good but Ian't help but feel it's Sunshine with better lighting)
Ultimate Loser:New Super Mario Bros.(64 was praised highly because it was first 3d,this is just mediocre,average DS graphics)

Power-Ups

Winner:Super Mario Galaxy(What are there  9 amazing power-ups[Bee Mario's my favorite] some are old ones from NES era like Fire Flower)
Runner-Up:Super Mario 64(I didn't like New Super Mario Brios. power-ups,the only real good ones were Shell Mario and MEga Mario but 64's were innovative and outstading plus you could be all of them at once sometimes)
Ultimate Loser:Super Mario SUnshine(What power-ups all I see are 2 extra FLUDD nozzles,at least NEw Super Mario Bros had power ups)

Levels

Winner:Super Mario 64(15 levels and secret stars and they're all open with variety)
Runner-Up: Super Mario Sunshine(8 levels that seem to be the same, but the secrets are nice)
Ultimate Loser:New Super Mario Bros.(Linear,3D do they mix????)

Boss Battles

Winner:Super Mario Galaxy(It's awesome they're alot of them and the final is killer)
Runner-Up:Super Mario 64(New Super Mario Bros. were too easy and then I couldn't reach em',but in this one 3 Boss levels each the same but hard)
Ultimate Loser:Super Mario Sunshine(One Boss Battle easy to access and  I beat it on first try)

Hub

Winner:Super Maio Sunsine(Delffino Plaza was groundbreaking and it felt like a level,not just a hub I wished it was real once)
Runner Up:Super Mario Galaxy(Comet Observatory has more to it that meets the eye plus all these areas ooooh I'm shivering)
Ultimate Loser:NEw Super Mario Bros.(Super Mario 64's was excellent but it wasn't as remarkable as the others,but it had a hub New Super Mario Bros. is linewr and it has 8 worlds sorta like hubs but they lack somethings so it's out)

Audio

Winner:Super Mario 64(Who hasn't felt like they were gonna cringe once at Bowser Battles or felt like they went through a winter wonderland at Snowman's Land,it has all the nostalgia I need)
Runner Up:Super Mario Sunshine(This was close but not even Beach Bowl,Gusty Garden or Good Egg could match the musical might of....Delfino Plaza,Noki Bay,Bianco Hills,Sand Bird Theme,Pinna Park,or the Underwater theme)
Ultimate Loser:New Super Mario Bros. (Completley bland except World 1 and 8,it left much to be desired)

Sunshine and Galaxy have won twice,Mario 64 is the ultimate winner of 3 times and New Mario Bros. once, so I guess it lost,but then again it's kinda 2.5D so it has gameplay sorta inbetween so it's not completely fair

Longest post complete, I'll go play some 3d Mario's right now

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue Two

Welcome back to the Monkey World Weekend Edition

Instead of a tour reminisence I thought I'd just write about yesterday and the day before,I'll start with after Cross Country

Anyway I took my bike to  the regional park, where I met up with the team and we ran ran up a bumpy trail and then around an insect nfested resvervoir it was beautiful but the bugs where up in my face ugh!I was really tired at the end and had to stay an hour before I had enough energy to take the bike home. Eventually I got my bike but I reached a somewhat steep hill and right in the middle........SPIIING!!!! the chain comes entirely off and coiled u ,I try to fix it but to no avail, so I walk to the bus stop I try to call(cell phone of course) but ummm lets see lots of trees, not may wires that's right NO SIGNAL.So I walk on up the road but then I see atrail that'll keep me safe from cars....oh joy a thin bumpy trail.An hour later I'm back on the road I don't want to take to long so I coast  down the road and find a cyclist who attempts to fix it.It turns out a link has split entirely. So I take it home and that's it ca't use it for a while till it's fixed or I get a new chain.Until 4;00 pm the next day it's eat,sleep,computer,and video games.At 4 pm I headed off to a 4th of July party since I.There seemed to only be one thing to do.........EAT which I did kept that up for a few hours with a few trampoline breaks.And I got back at 5 hours later out of sheer boredom and got 12 hours of sleep and here I am posting it

That's all on  The Monkey World Weekend Edition

Post 10

Well I've just realized this is my tenth post since I started this blog.

And since you saw a post yesterday,I srvived cross-country practice,now this is the 2nd day and this time in the hills

Luckily I have running shoes to compliment the bumpy,dirt course of Wildcat Gorge Trail

Oh Bluestar I'm hungry,but I have a freakin' cold. Atchoo! yup it's back.And my stomach's woozy(I took a dare to drink a few shots of straight Cherry syrup,that stuffs nasty)

Tomorrows blog is on Tour reminisence and maybe a Super Smash Bros. Brawl review

Yo Estoy Mucho Aburrido!

For those who don't speak Spanish, Yo Estoy Mucho Aburrido means I am very bored.

And I am,so far today all I've done is chores and computer.I've finished the Sisters Grimm books I have,I've beaten most of my video games(except Sonic Adventure 2 but I can't get past the first boss).I've been on the computer too much.And I don't feel like walking, I guess the only to do is snack but that leaves frothing.

It doesn't help that my sister Asm brought over her real annoying 'pen pal' Natahsha.A long time ago maybe hings would've been ok but well they've shown themselves so yeah. I wish Jesse(known as BF for now) and BF is for Best Friend not Boyfriend becuase I'm not Gay.Either way I wish he was still here.

At least tomorrow I got Cross-Country but for now I'm a bored-ass(mind my tongue)

Cross Country Today

Like the title suggests Berkeley High starts Cross Country Practice today,obviously I am with the team,unfortunatley I didn't count on practice being so early.

Oh well,I gotta do something

Also I'm now hooked on a series called "The Sisters Grimm" so far it's more exciting than"Grimm's Fairy Tales" but that could change let's just see

So far on my list we have

1.Video Games(playing side to computer included)
2.Books
3.Eat
4.Cross Country
5.Exercise

Don't be fooled by this list though,I've got a packed summer

If you don't see a post tomorrow it means Cross Country killed me,if you do I have survived first day

Back to Super Mario 64 utube vs DS remake

P.S. if you haven't read The Sisters Grimm or RONIN or Warriorcats you are missing out and I will have to slowly chop you to pieces out of sheer boredom

Video Games

I apologize for no Sunday blog,but as a Mormon I'm supposed to obey the Sabbath som how(ususally I later computer time)

Anyway I'm also a gamer. My video game knowledge far extends past what I own

I have 2 systems and 26 games.My favorite of the 2 is the Gamecube. My favorite game is Super Mario 64 DS of the games I own(but  Banjo-Kazooie for Nintendo 64 is my favoroite game and Nintendo 64 is my favorite system)

My current goal is to own a SEGA system and become a system collector.

I'm currently re-beating Super Mario 64 DS,if their ever was a game that you couldn't get bored of this is it.


Who needs Grand Theft Auto,it's an abuse of free speech and delivers the wrong message,who needs WoW I want to live,who needs Mature games they're overrated and I'm not a sex mogul.

 My neighbor The Mac Nerd(MN for short)(he's 10 and he can basically program a computer) has a 64  and Genun and Zary have  a 360

Gotta go Asm's giving me the look,off to the library(we had a bet,she won)

The Monkey World Weekend Edition:Issue One

Welcome to The Monkey World's First Weekend Edition,Issue 1

So far nothing has happenned except a power outage,sour milk, and chores.Oh yes and my Irn-Bru has run out.For those wondering Irn-Bru is this very fizzy orange soda.It's takes like the baby of Wax lips and cream soda.

I've just gotten into this series of book by believe it or not The Sprouse Brothers(they play Zack and Cody in The Suite Life of Zack and Cody) and anyway it's about 2 twins that are attacked by ninjas.Why? the answer their father is a boss of a rogue organization R.O.N.I.N, and yeah that's all I'm gonna explain,read it if you want more 411.

I've gotten back into this Super Mario Sunshine craze and have a Digimon addiction.I keep telling myself o quit Digimon in cold turkey but no, I can't keep myself from not watching Digimon with all of Myotismon's and the Dark Master's antics.

Ok I'm posting this because I'm having a hard time with a challenge in Mario Sunshine so I'm taking a break.

Now if you'll excuse me,I'm gonna take an electronic break and get those disyhes overwith and take a nice walk to the park

For now comment or die painfully.

Thus ending this issue

Post Jet-Lag Day:The X-treme Mediocrity

As you can guess by the title the day has been pretty boring and mediocre. The good news I have gotten over my jet-lag.Only I dunno what to do

Maybe some Mario Sunshine but then I've played 10,000 times over as goes for most of my video games

What I wouldn't do for a new thing(book,video game,idea,routine,Irn Bru, etc.)

So far all I've done is been a lazy couch potato writing down this blog and therefore wasting your time

That does it,I'm gonna finish up this tasty almond-tofee chocolat,the Irn-Bru and take a nice refeshing walk

Hopefully my sister Asm will be in a better,more senseful mood

Today's Thoughts

Well,after all the deep-fried Mars Bars,Irn-Bru,left side road driving, and concerts.

I think I've had enough excitement so I guess I'll just lazily type this  post wishing there was something better to do

So far the 24 hr plan has worked well,since my evil clone is pressuring me to get off I guess I have to end this

The Savage Jet-Lag of lonliness

Well,where should I start

I got back yesterday and intended to end the 2 week hiatus,but after sleeping all day and catching up with emails,I thought maybe 2 in one 24 hour day would be better.

I'm am typing this at 2 in the morning because of........THE SAVAGE JET-LAG of CONFUSION

See I  am still adjusting back to Pacific Time from Greenwich-Mean Time which is 8 hours ahead so it's though 2 when I type,my conscience tells me it's 10.

Oh well Scotland was worth it

Maybe some Irn-Bru(Scotland's soda) or Chocolate will do it

Well this ends the post
