I generally view all competitive events (that aren't electronic) as sports. Though I still haven't heard of a competitive School Chess Team yet.

Regular chess? Mere peanuts. True chess players play ice speed chess.

Seeing all these sports really reminds me that I should try to at least get into a little shape. Even though I don't gain weight no matter what gets shoved down my throat, I'd still wish I was in a better shape than I'm in....

If only I had the determination... And will power... And time... And lack of lazy attitude... And lack of procrastination...



... See why I never finish or start things.......

I'm in shape for wrestling (as you probably can tell, it's my passion), I almost got that 6-Pack flow going for me B)

I've already got one and I do absolutely nothing. But it's nice to hear that you're enjoying something like that.
But now I think I might have to give up my dream of wrestling. All that weight and diet control you talk about makes me want to throw up.

I weigh 133 lb exact. Which weight class would that be?

I should start following my dream sports and start doing Cross Country and Tennis in college...

...if laziness and time were neglectable factors...

Day = Made. Life = Made. A Day in the Life = MADE~!
My dad is now the coolest person ever to me, after so many years of being lame and useless. He just got me a Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Abbey Road poster, both holographic~ And he agreed to fund the rest of my Beatles album purchases! YES YES YES! And on top of that, he gave me a case for my Kindle that comes with a working stylus. AND THEY SAID THESE TYPES OF TOUCH SCREENS DON'T HAVE STYLI! ECSTATIC!

Well, that was a fun New Years Party I had. Couple of friends came over, played some games on Nintendo Land. Watched part of a movie. Played a different board game. And then at the late hours of the night, one friend and I beat New Super Mario Bros U. All while using a stereotypical Russian accent and mocking other countries...

Oh all the comments made...

You're lucky you had a New Year's party. All I had was me, myself, I, a cleaning mom, and The Beatles' Rock Band. It was my ultimate goal to get 5 stars on every single song with Expert Bass before 2013 rolled in, but I failed with 2 songs still at 4 stars at about 11:50. But I consider it a personal achievement to the bettering of my fake-bass playing skills.

It's completely official, Internet Explorer has become my default browser over Chrome. Again. I mean... it's lightning fast, almost as fast as Chrome's bullet speeds. But it's more durable and doesn't crash like Chrome does every-so-often. And when it does have problems it's usually because my whole laptop is having some sort of issue. Plus it looks... smoother than Chrome. Maybe this time I won't go back...

And while the year so far has been amazing (y'know, for 2 days), it all came down when my band teacher said Jazz Band was canceled. Only 3 people actually auditioned well (me being one of them, of course. I LIVE for it) and now I've got no reason for using my Soprano. But, it can only get better from there...

I feel like I'm a bit weird today, but I'm on a longer than usual bus trip to do some banking.

I'm going on a retreat this afternoon! I won't be able to come on here much this weekend since I'll be with my friends most of the time. There's gonna be snow on the ground where I'm going, so I'm gonna have fun running outside in shorts and a T-shirt.

I'm going back to school on monday

I've been back to school for a while now. I've already got a quiz and a test to worry about next week. :L I'm also heading back from the retreat today, so I need to do a lot of homework when I get back home. >_<

Aw crap you just reminded me of how much homework I have x.x I tend to procrastinate a lot and I told my mom that I would manage my time wisely but you know... That's not happening. I probably won't even be finished until tonight or tomorrow morning xD

Great, now that I'm awake unusually early, I think I'll just spend some time doing something on the laptop until around 10:30 AM then I'll head out for pizza (yay free pizzas from coupons)!

Now look, some of you may see me as being a little bit of a rule breaker, but this is no spoiler of ANY content in XY, so I figured I'd share my excitement. Guys. This is the first time ever that a Pokemon game is to be released worldwide at the same time everywhere. This is a huge event. It'll be a worldwide phenomenon. We will all be playing this game at the same time. Everybody who is anybody and is a Pokemon fan will be playing at the same time as you, no matter where they're from.
Not to mention bro, you save money because you have no need to import.

Now that that's oooooooooooover... I'll go back to my hole of sorrow, where I have too much homework, projects and upcoming exams, crunching for time, don't want to do any of it, but will pull through anyways. *Sighs* Yaaaaaay.

I to have a lot of homework and I have left it all to the last minitue lol. I guess it's going to take a few hours.

I say we have a race when XY come out. We get X or Y, pop it in our 3DS's, then try to beat the game before anyone else in the world. After all, someone has to be the first to beat it, right?

So is anyone (mainly Lux) happy or care about that fact that the NHL hockey season is back on because I sure am.

Why is it that the Winnepeg Jets are still in the South West League?

I'm pretty upset I don't keep track of hockey more since my favorite team, the Rangers makes it to the playoffs every year.
Also there's apparently an entire Wikipedia article now devoted to a possible expansion.

So do you ever go to any Red Wings or Kalamazoo Wings games Quad?

Wanna know what I feel is so weird? Because of the Jets, people actually know the name of the city where I live. Buuuut, I bet you don't even know where it actually is without the internet.

I've only been to a Hitmen's game. (A team probably none of you know of.) And actually like, 2 World Junior games that took place here. I even got to touch Lord Stanley's cup while it was here. :'D

Bleh, I hate the feeling of being sick. I feel better now, but for the last two or three days, I've had a few flu symptoms. I blame one of my friends for that, but I didn't expect the flu to be this bad on Long Island...

I'm also thinking about making a blog, but I'm not sure what I'd include in one.

In a blog you would post things that you did that day, how you're feeling, what you're thinking, your plans, interesting things that happened to you, etc. Just like talk about yourself. And you know what? I'm probably coming down with something, too. I had symptoms of sickness this morn-afternoon when I woke up. Maybe I should start going to sleep before 3 AM

Hockey season has finally begun again! Yay!

Man, I sure am excited to start my Drawing class.
Too bad I'll have to wait until Michigan is no longer the North Pole. Low today is -2 and the wind chill is -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Schools are closed because of this arctic blast.

Now that makes me wonder whether winter is good or not. To be honest, I never experienced winter.

IT'S SO COLD. Even though I love the cold and barely get chilly, I thought it was freezing today. The wind made things worse too. It's around 21 degrees in New York (which certainly isn't as bad as Michigan's temperature), but the wind makes it feel below zero. >_< Looks like winter is coming a lot later this year than usual.

Where I am it feels like it's -27 celcius with the windchill. I still wear just a light jacket.

Yeah I'm experiencing the same old Northeast weather Ruen is, it's so cold I'm not sure if I should leave the house today, no schools a closed today though.

Why am I feeling this insane amount of coldness too? The only part of my skin showing were my eyes and I could still feel the wind tearing me apart. Winter is an amazing season and all, but only when it has snow and joy. Not evil winds and short days. :I Plus a fire drill. In the freezing cold. Who does that?

Well then, fire needs to get its act together and stop causing these things before my fingers freeze off. I almost can't wait for Spring (And not just because I'll have Wreck-It Ralph, oh yes I will~♥♥<3<3 heart heart)
...Is it bad that I think it's funny whenever we have a REAL fire?

Hmm...

I sometimes feel like I would prefer status quo in a lot of things. Seems like a lot of things about me hasn't changed. Yet.

At least it's more comfy now with a real AC unit in the room.

Anyway, I sometimes feel like I want to go out more. Do you?

Considering I spend all my time inside of my house when I'm not participating in some sort of school activity, I would definitely love to get out more. It's usually me in the summer biking all over the city, but that doesn't last long.

2 great days in a row~ This school day ended 2 hours early because of a little snow warning. Now wouldn't it be a scream if it never even snowed? Hahaha~ Unfortunately, I had about 6-7 hours' worth of afterschool things planned, and now they're all canceled. So I basically have nothing to do for the whole day. Oh God, what do I do?

There was supposed to be snow earlier today, but it never happened. D: I want it to snow so badly.

Makes me wish I lived in somewhere that snowed.

Hah, sociable. Although I'm working on it, I can live without seeing actual people since I have some pretty poor social skills. I couldn't even order a cheeseburger until last year

And now this day has become even MORE amazing~ We got our new PS2 today, just a couple hours ago. Now I can finally play Crazy Taxi again~! (I don't know why the old one just couldn't have been fixed. I'm still keeping it.) Soon we'll have our gigantic PlayStation marathon, playing all my classic favorites from like 10 PM to like 5 AM~

I really need some more PS2 games. I have this $25 gift card to GameStop and I plan on spending it on either a GameCube game or PS2 game, but I don't know what to get. Any recommendations?

I can still play Super Smash Bros. pretty decently still... I blame my Grade 12 years and me constantly fighting my friend during lunch hour. Fun times...

I played Brawl just yesterday after a party at school. I never thought I'd say this, but I got my butt kicked by Peach. ._. I always tend to lose against my friend when we're down to our last lives (We play on 3 Stock matches).

Since I main as Lucas, he has a difficult time fighting in the air, while Peach is one of the best characters at aerial combat. Gah Peach is so evil! D:

I played Brawl too, at a birthday party I went to just yesterday. I still managed to come on top in nearly every game (about 98% of them) even though only a couple people were a real challenge. It seems that with Lucas I'm losing some of my skill, I might need to practice more with him, but I'm picking up Ness a lot more and Olimar is still god-like unbeatable. Even after not playing this game for months I still retain my high skill level.

I want to get back into MK7 too. TPM and Quad should both remember our sessions on SNES Rainbow Road.

Today though, I'm home from school. I hate being sick, it only piles up what homework I have to do and delays what tests I need to take.

Las Vegas weather can be ridiculous at times.

Normally, deciduous trees drop their needles or leaves in mid-autumn. No, in Las Vegas they drop them in mid-winter. The trees around here FINALLY decided to drop them.

As you can see this Mountain Laurel in my backyard is the hipster of the bunch it's leafs are changing in the middle of winter.

This is common though I've seen it have flowers in the middle of winter.

I don't get this wacky weather sometimes. .-.

Oh, and while I was home from school I saw a visitor at my house sunning itself on the backyard deck.

There was some snow over in England about 2 weeks ago. As my country is under-prepared for this sort of thing, the whole country comes to a standstill. However I did get a day off school when it happened so I can't exactly complain about that.

Well I wouldn't say frequent but for the past few years, it has snowed (only for a few days) in December/January/February.

Here in another part of Michigan, pretty much right by Lake Michigan, we'll get really wacky weather. The other day it went from snow to ice thunder storm. Twas very foggy the next day. And now it's 60 degrees Fahrenheit and supposed to be in the high teens by Thursday. Michigan gets some crazy weather, but usually nothing like this.

We don't really have that many wild cats here anymore, but when there were they were all ominously black. We usually have instead foxes and deer. The foxes are nice to look at with their pretty fur, but the deer are too frequent to be cool. Man if I had a dollar for every time we nearly ran into a deer...

No fur cats near where I live either.. There are these two outdoor cats that are owned by my neighbor and they stray along our street and sometimes in our backyards and stuff but that's about it. However, their activity has been greater lately even with the snow and stuff because of Hurricane Sandy. The storm hit our neighbors' house pretty badly with a tree toppling over and everything
