It's been 2 whole weeks,oh well it's not like anyone reads it anyway!
Good
-2 to awesome video game tournaments based off of none other than Super Smash Bros.!!!!!
-Fablehaven Book 4 was just released,this is by far the best book in the series since book 1 [I should do a review of that soon]
-A really,really good camp out I just got back from (Nothing like a good ol' Capture the Flag in the Dark with flashlights as the only source of light oh and bear foot in cold sand]
-Emmza and KB stayed over for a night
-Video Games (I just got past a really hard level and I discovered some cool parts to other video games)
Bad
-Schoolwork (Projects,essays,bastards [excuse my language but that's the disturbing truth] to deal with,psychotic subs)
That's it

The Monkey World Weekend Edition: Issue 22
Wow what a day! I've just returned from a Youth Conference that lasted all day. I've been gone since 8:30 this morning and only just got in [That's about my average school day in the Cross Country season which reminds me I need to get back in shape].
Anyway I woke up at 7:30 and read TinTin for half an hour then I got dressed and went to the French Hotel for a good hot chocolate and morning snack.Soon after I walked up to church where I got a ride to the ISC for the conference.
So I arrived to find there was a huge amount of cans donated for the Food Bank we [The Ward] donated some as well (We[ as a Group] ended up being the largest donors of canned goods in one day it ended up on the 6 'o clock news) and after the quick donation I registered and the conference began with a good talk about courage and the guy was making references to David and Goliath and Gideon and the 135,000 enemies and so on.
After that I went to a workshop about balancing life.Pretty good workshop but I was mostly in it for the unicycle though he was quite funny at times. I also met a pretty nice young lady who I'll call Ginger. [I ended up hangin' out with her all day,turns out she's from Alameda and works Cross Country with Encinal which is the one of the many schools I have to race against in the fall].After the workshop was a nice little performance from a Utah-based accapella group called Noteworthy, smashing ol' themes they were I couldn't get enough of them,too bad I was sittin' next to really excited girls.Then came disgusting lunch but I got to talk to Emmza,KB,and Kandy [Candace] so it was all fine.
After lunch was 2 more good workshops.The 2nd one was about how culture affects our thinking.This guy was UC professor who goes to my church and he made reference to Little Mermaid. The whole lesson kinda of creeped me out but it was good I was sitting next Ginger again.The 3rd one i didn't pay too much atention to but when I did I liked every bit off it.
After that was testimony bearing in which lots of youth went up and bore testimonies,and now I wish I did to.Then came the most delicious dinner you could get at a Youth Conference but then Asm just left I don't know why I know she couldn't eat dinner but that really doesn't seem reason enough.After that was a closing talk by an astronaut [1 out of the LDS guys to go in space actually] I liked his talk most. I sat once again next to Ginger
After that was the dance which I had the time of my life with I didn't even go to the games for once. I danced all by my self and ocassionally went to the side for food.
Once I got tired I got a ride back and now it's been 40 minutes since I typed all this up and since I returned. That ends this

Title of No Meaning
The title up there,yeah it's completely meaningless so don't hesitate to figure out why I chose it
Well today was the first day of daylight savings time,you know what that means to us seminary goers? Huh?!? Do ya'? Do Ya?!?????
It means instead getting up at a sane hour to get to school at the sane hour of 8:30 and then being able to enjoy sunlight at 7,we get stuck with having to wake up at what we believe to be 4:00 am stuck lurking around school in the dark and then all for one measly extra afternoon hour that isn't needed.If anything it should be called Daylight Stealing Time. If you ask me they should put it back on the first April Saturday at 9:00 am so we don't have to set our clocks before we go to bed and then they should put out an initiative to take away all legislators healthcare [same for Congress on national level].Why should they get a socialized healthcare while 1/3 of Americans must suffer and the other 64% are most likely on the brink. (That's 100 million people with no healthcare and a little under 100 about to lose insurance). To top it off recall the governor so we can finally no longer be 51/50 in education spending.
While Asm was at the prom I hung out with Leffler and had a bit of a Nerf war [Nerfs are soooo underrated] followed by vegging out and then a hilariously bad movie but overall not bad enough to be good. The movie was R rated but keep in mind it was an 80's movie so the standards were completely different [something Asm fails to realize,so judgmental R rating isn't bad,vulgarity and language is].
For once I was not antagonised quite suprisingly it's almost scary how great the day went. To top it off that girl returned but I bet that was completely surreal [It it wasn't she was gone for 2 whole months,if not who knows if she'll return].
Alas it is looking to be late I must get some shoulday' after tomorrows shower morning
Hey y'all
