Kindness
Something has been bugging me lately, and I can't seem to figure it out. Kindness. I'm sick of people being jerks to one another, I'm sick of idiotic fools making fun of other people to boost their low self esteem. Everyone makes fun of one another, everyone pokes around at friends and family. That's ok. But what I mean is the bitter hate. I'm sick of people not caring at least just a tiny bit for what you think. I want people to hear what I say, I want people to listen to what I want to tell them. I will give an example. You know who you are, so I do not want disclose names. I said something along the line of, "Oh yeah, I used to watch this show, it's was pretty cool." And then immediately, a person bashes your opinion. The other person said something like, "No one cares, that's a dumb show, that's why I haven't watched it before." You know, this wouldn't be so bad, I take criticism lightly, and I care about what other people think. But comments like the example stated above happen way to often, probably about 85% of the comments or opinions I make, this person immediately puts down. I'm utterly sick of it. I've dealt with this type of trash for a year now, and I am truly disgusted with it. I care about what other people say, I try to be a good friend to them, because that's how I want to be treated, that's how I've been raised. But unfortunately, some people need to constantly make fun of, embarrass, and humilate their so-called "friends". I am always being mad fun of. But you know what? It's actually funny most of the time, and I don't mind it. I poke fun of them also. But it's when people start making fun of things that you can't help, or they embarrass you in front of a girl you like, specifically when they know you like her, that it hurts, it hurts and the pain doesn't go away. I give these people way to many chances, and I still try to be the best friend I can to them. I just want people to be nice to each other, compliment each other once in a while, make your friend feel good that he's has a buddy like you. And for the person that always does these things to me, I hope you read this and understand what I go through. Thank you for reading this

Paranormal Encounter
This is a story of a paranormal experience that I've had. I've told very few people about this story, just because it brings memories that I care not to remember.
I was about 5 or 6, living in Germany at the time. My parents had a large bed compared to my size and I remember, sitting upright, under the same blue covers, on top of the same bed that my family still uses. I look out to the corner of the bedroom, northeast of where I lay, there is 3 white figures in the doorway, with red eyes, staring at me. I remember nothing past that moment, but my parents tell me otherwise. They say that I used to draw pictures of the paranormal beings. Sometimes childhood can bring back painful memories. To this day, I still don't recall drawing pictures, and for some reason, my parents or I cannot recall where the pictures are, or even if they kept them. I've begun to think that it was all a dream, a terrible, disturbing childhood dream. But the thing that seperates it from being a dream is the pictures. If only I could find them...
This is a completely true story from Csyberblue, 6/19/01
Rant to Mr. Adam's:
Dear Mr. Adam's, I have recently been informed of how you raise your children. To be quite blant, you are doing your kids a great injustice, and I actually fear for how they may mature into our society. I want you to read this, because by reading from another teenager, around the same age as your children, you may get another viewpoint as to how you are making a mistake. I have learned that you do not allow your children to do these things: 1.Not watch television 2.not listen to the radio 3.do not listen to any source of media 4.do not allow them to read magazines 5.do not allow them to interact in the presence of the opposite sex without you being there 6.To not go to a public, or private school, ie, a place where your children can interact with their peers.
Your actions make me cry out. I can slightly understand why you "protect" and "shield" your children. But why you take it to this extreme I do not understand. Do you not want your children to live healthy, productive lives? Trust me, they won't the way you are shielding them like this. Yes, I do understand that there is a lot of trash, and inappropriate things on television. But have you never wanted your children to learn about educational things? Like about other countries, animal stories, or the news. There is methods of blocking out programs that you don't want your children to watch Mr. Adams. There is so much information that your children should be learning about, television should not be seen as only "mtv, jerry springer, and the playboy channel", there is the Discovery Channel, the Learning Channel, Animal Planet, Fox News Channel, and much more. You're taking it to the extreme by not allowing them to watch television, but to my amazement, you have amazed me ever more. Ok, so you don't believe television is good for your children, fine. But as I understand it, the only source of reading material they have is from the library (where they are limited to books only, no magazines or tapes) and a very limited, and severly restricted use of the internet. What is the purpose of the radio? It's for entertainment, and information. If you don't want your kids listening to Rap Music on KTFM, fine, tell them that you don't want them listening to it. By banning your children from the radio you are showing them that you have absolutely no understanding for your own offspring, but that you have not raised them properly enough to even obey a simple task that you ask them to do, such as not listening to a certain station. It has been proven in recent years, that our bodies are developed for music. We have been composing music for eons, but yet you deny your children one of the basic things for their humanity? Your kids will never experience Back, Bethoven, or any other great classics. Infact, the only time where I think your children may hear music is maybe in a store, and even that is a crime to your children. The unfortunate thing is that your kids don't understand the world, don't understand you, and don't understand normal human interaction. With you all over their backs, how can they become productive in society? Trust your children Mr. Adams, and they will trust you. Which brings me to my next point. Alright, so no audio/visual interaction shall come to your children. But then you even limit their reading? Yes, I admit, there is some bad magazines. But that's only a small margin of the magazine census. Your kids can never read Newsweek, Time, or dare I even say it, Popular Science for Kids. Shame on you Mr. Adams. Not every magazine talks about sex and drugs. Who knows, maybe even your children will actually learn something new! Let your children live sir, because right now as I see it, your children have never even seen the world. My next subject is a bit controversial. I can understand your next point, but only marginally. Most parents don't approve of their children dating until a late age, that's fine. But their children have one thing that your children don't, social interaction with them. Your children do not sir. Since your children are home schooled, they do not get this interaction. And if by some miracle of a chance, they actually meet a person they like, and may actually be able talk to them, you have to be there, next to them, listening to there conversation. Mr. Adam's, if you do not allow your children to date, at least let them talk to their peer in peace. This next topic is my most important one, so I kindly ask of you to please have your full attention. Mr. Adams, do you want your children to go to college? Of course you do, if you do not you will be denying your children of a successful and prosperous future. Now think about this sir. Ok, you found a college that you approve of. Your children attend it, and dare I say this but, they actually meet a friend or two, and maybe even an attractive member of the opposite sex that has intereset in your child. Now think about this...their not going to know what to do. Why? Because you've been right behind them, holding their hands their ENTIRE life. Their not going to know how to talk to that special girl or boy properly because *gasp!* you've been there the entire time. How can your children be productive, normal members of society if they can't even go on a date, or talk to their peers! Answer me that Mr. Adams. What are you going to do if your not there? I hope your don't force your children to go to SAC, UTSA, because frankly quite sir, with someone of your intelligence, I'm sure your children are just as smart. Let your children see the world, let them live. I thank you for reading this sir. And I want you to know, no, I am not teaching you how to raise your children, that is the job of yourself and your wife. What I am doing is trying to give you a different perspective on how you do raise your children. Will you think your method is superb, and probably far beyond normal parenting, trust me sir, it is not. If you would be as so kind as to pass this along to your children, because I want them to see your views and actions as taking from a member of their peers. Good day to you sir.

A.I.:I personally liked the movie, my recommedation, don't drink during the movie, because it's a 3 hour movie, and you'll be peeing like a horse half way through like I did. Now onto the movie. I highly enjoyed the ending, it was a little slow the first half of the movie, but then it picked up. I believe this to be more of an "intellectual adventure" per say. So my recommendation, don't bring kids under 14 into the movie, because they'll probably be wanting more action. A great movie, and I highly recommend it. 9/10
Unbreakable:This movie was slow at first, but then it only slightly picked up. Let me tell you, this movie only slightly relates to the train crash that you know from the previews. The movie is more about comic books...oh well. I expected more from the ending, it kinda leaves you hanging the way that The Matrix left you. There was already any music in the movie, and for the lack of dialogue in the movie, you would expect more action scenes, but there wasn't. 7/10
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within:As you all know, the animation is absolutely astounding, and let me tell you, this movie isn't like Shrek in terms of animation, or story. The animation is more real, but the story is a little less imaginative. If you have played any of the Final Fantasy games, you can relate to what happens in the plot. I hope I'm not spoiling anything for you right now, but I will mention, that the storyline revolves around Gaia (pronounced Guy-Uh), the lifeforce in all living things, including the earth. I enjoyed the movie, but I think I enjoyed it because of the few, but very cool action scenes. I thought the story could have been more, but I still liked the movie. Don't take little kids to see this movie, as I believe it's meant for a more teenage+ audience. 8.5/10
Princess Mononoke:You remember how big titanic was here in the US? well, Princess Mononoke reached that type of fame there in Japan. This is an anime, a japanese "cartoon" but don't let animation turn you off from the movie. The story is of Ashitaka, and his will to save a girl raised by wolves (San) and protect the forest and the forest spirits. A truly moving story, excellent dub work and more make this a must own, or if your really not into animation, rent it from your nearby store. I love this movie, there's so much to like about it, and so little to criticize about it. People, you owe it to yourself to at least check out this movie once! 10/10
Akira:If you want an animated movie, that's so deep that you'll be pondering the ending for weeks, check this out. Akira is a difficult story to understand. It's hard to sum up, because their's so much to tell. But basically a 2 sentence summary can go as this: The government is tested powers on some children, one of them doesn't realizes his powers until he meets up with one of the other children. He suddenly become all crazy and starts killing everything. I hope I did that summary justice to the movie, because I really didn't understand the movie fully the first time I watched it. If you want action, and I mean A LOT of action, and you want a good story, definitly check this out. 10/10
Previous Game Reviews:
Dance Dance Revolution (US Version):For US players, this is your only bet for playability without importing. The game is probably the worst of the line up of the actual ddr games, but it's all we got. It's a fun game, great for getting friends over to play it. 7/10
Soul Calibur: There is a reason why they rate this game the best dreamcast game of all time...because it is! Outstanding graphics, awesome secrets, a cool semi-rpg mode, and more! Heck, you can even edit the opening movie! 10/10
Grandia II: Short game, but beautiful graphics, and the greatest RPG battle system since Legend of Mana. A pretty good story, but it's been told before. But there is a soundtrack that's included with the game! 8/10
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon: The BEST launch title for the GBA, sure to hold you over until some of the other great games come out! There's Great graphics, challenging bosses, secret rooms and more! 9/10
Hydro Thunder: If you like the arcade game, get the DC version. It's 10 bucks, and if I'm not mistaken, I think they added in 2 more tracks and 4 more secret boats compared to the arcade version. The only problem with the game is that there is a lot of glitches, and there's no 4 player mode, only 2 player, and there's a lot of slow-down in it. 7/10
Star Wars Rogue Squadron: Rogue Leader 2: Are you a Star Wars fan? Do you enjoy whooping ass in yo x-wing takin' out ties? or maybe you like it the other way around, killing x-wings in your tie? It's possible in this game. Let me tell you, this game is hella hard. Some of the missions are pretty difficult, but getting gold medals seems impossible on some of the levels. You gotta like flight sims, otherwise you won't like this game, unless your a star wars freak. I like the game, but I feel it just ain't my thing. It could be due to that I suck balls at it, or it could be to that all my friends are good at it, while I still suck. It's a difficult game, with nice graphics, and cool ships to use. But the frustration factor on some of the things in the game may be too much for you. In my opinion, some of the things are just too hard to do. 8/10
Super Smash Bros. Melee: I'm a huge fan of the original. I love the game. If you liked the first one, you get over double the original amount of characters and levels. The one player mode is actually fun (who'da thunk it)! With the addition of cool trophies to collect, and more things to do in the game, I highly recommend this game for anyone with a friend that would like to play too. I wouldn't buy this game for the 1 player mode, there's better game for that. But for it's multiplayer, it can't be beat. 10/10
Previous Game System Reviews:
I just got a Gameboy Advance when it came out. I like it a lot, except for 1 thing and 1 thing only. Ironically, it was also my only complaint for the Gameboy Color. The plastic holder that snaps to hold the batteries in is still too flimsy for my tastes, and it bugs me sometimes when I'm playing. I recommend getting a GBA, but just to tell ya, their 3 times better when you have a friend that has one so you guys can play multiplayer. The 1 cartridge, 4 player multiplayer is a genius idea, and it's one of the main reasons I bought a GBA! If ya got the money, I recommend getting one!
Previous What I'm Thinking Right Now phrases: In the Rain, or in the Snow, I got the funky flow, but now, I've really got to go. I need to go, just as bad as you, what I had this morning I don't even want to say to you. I have a compulsive buying disorder, ebay owns me. I just found a lump of lint in my wallet, hehe, that's not something you say everyday. I'm thinking about a lot of stuff right now, probably so much stuff, that a normal human mind would probably melt and implode with the vast amount of data I am processing right now! I'm wondering if I should take some more pics and add them to the site... Previous Main Page Updates and Topics:

Well, I'm actually getting a decent amount of hits to this site, what I consider decent at least, which is about 20 per day. I'm happy. In other news, I'm going to try to get a mentorship agreement with the virtual reality people at Southwest Research Institute. Hopefully working with the hardware aspect of it. That would be like a dream come true. Ok, enough with the sapiness (I didn't spell that right, I know). Here's my 1 line of bragging for the week, I got a 70 dollar pair of headphones. Call me stupid, idiotic, wasteful, whatever, but I'm starting to get into above average audio systems, and headphones were a good idea. Anyway, I'll write another rant when I get some time, which isn't tonight, maybe tomorrow. In the meantime, go view Sam or Brian's sites, since they update everyday. ~ End Transmission
6/11/02-
I was gone over the weekend for a hick wedding, it was pretty damn weird. Pretty damn fucking weird. I took a lot of pictures of it, simply because it was so goddamn funny. Lemme recap on some of the highlights. It was in a shriner hall, and shriners are the old guys with the little arabian turban hat things. So that's funny, and then like right in the main area, there was a door, and on the door there was mark that said "WARNING RADIATION AREA!" so they got some fucking radiation plant where we're fucking eating 3 feet away from it? I thought that was funny. And with my curiousity, I looked inside, and my god friends, it was weird. Inside it was like a child's playroom, with some tables, and little cartoony dinosaur's on the walls. It was weird. Well, there was other funny stuff, like since it was in Harlingen, Texas, and my family is basically just a bunch of hicks, the wedding cake was surrounded with army camo colors, and deer horns. Wierd, but funny! There was other stuff, but I'll post up pictures, or send them to someone on aim or something. I just realized I got 165 hits since I restarted up this webpage, and that is simply FUCKING AMAZING TO THE XTREME (80's cliché on purpose). Really peeps, IM me if you want me to put up a special section or something, I'd be happy to talk to yea. And in other news, sam's site is really looking good, as is brian's also. I'll write a new rant tonight, later peeps.
6/8/02 -
It's been a while, I know since my last update. A lot's happened since then, but you know what? I don't feel like typing it all. Basically, I am updating once again due to boredom of the summer, and a recent spurt of interest in my friends to update and create their own webpages. I'm a conformist, what can I say? Basically, this site will remain like this for a while, I'm a lazy ass, so don't expect cool stuff like pictures and everything on a regular basis. A new section called "rants" will be coming up, where I'll rant about stuff. Expect a regular, periodic update on that portion of the site, since I have a lot of stuff I want to bitch about. Peace.
2/3/02 - Well, the Super Bowl is on right now. My bet is for the Rams, but I really don't care. I'm not a big football fan. A lot has happened recently. I'm now part of a pretty big project called Final Impact Studios. We're going to be making music videos to anime's. No profit or anything, it's just for fun. I made one to Baby Got Back with Golden Boy in it, and it'll be up in the next couple of weeks on our domain name, http://www.fistudios.com . It's exciting, yes I know. I've decided that all money that I have is going to be spent on a new computer. 1.6ghz, AMD XP 2000 processor, Geforce 3 64mb RAM, 19" monitor, 24x burner, and much more. It's gonna be sweet, but it's gonna cost at the very least $650, but it may go well into $800. I have a lot of homework to do, and it sucks cajones grandisimo. My mom made a deal with me, she said she'd pay for 2/3 of my computer if I finish my P.E. class homework (I'm taking it through correspondence). Only problem is that it's long, boring, and full of errors. Not pretty, but I need to finish it within a month, and I'm only 1/10 of the way through the class. Well, anyway, Sam started updating his webpage again, so that's all good. Not much else going on. I'm going to be putting up and working on new stuff for Final Impact Studio, so once we get going on it, I'll be sure to let you all know here. Lata peeps.
1/24/02-4:52pm-I'm taking initiative to write here. It's been over a month since my last update, quite a long time I might say. Nothing big happened, had a good christmas, a nice break, had a LAN party, and got my PSAT scores. But I decided to update for 1 reason only, I had a truly embarrassing experience today, and yes, I'm going to share it. Why you ask? (at least I hope you ask), is because it's still fresh in my memory. I have a kind of slighly unreachable goal, and that's to make a book about my life by the time I'm 18. I love to read, I love to write, and to be frank with all of you, there's not 1 book I can say off the top of my head that has been published and written by a teenager. Basically, I love telling stories, and I chose to write them. Writting a book isn't the hard part, it's getting published that's the hard thing. Well, anyway, back to emabarrassing part. Sheesh, I'm blushing just thinking about what happened. Well, I got out of 1st period early today to take my yearbook picture, for being class president. Well, we take 4 of so pictures. And one of them was really weird, I had to lay down on everyone's lap (3 girls and 1 guy, and 2 of the girl's I personally would not mind dating at all), and they lifted me up and we took a picture. It was a fun 15 minutes while it lasted. Well anyway, I'm not complaining. I got to second period, about half way through, I look down and realize my zipper is open...yes...it really was open....during the picture secession. I REALLY hope it didn't show up on the film, I had a regular size shirt on, not tucked in, but still...dang that'd be embarrassing. This is one of the moments where I realize, hell, there's nothing I can do about, I might as well laugh it off. I hope you're getting a good kick out of this. Since it's my personal ideology that for a person to be of good character, they must be able to poke fun and laugh at themself. Well, here's one of those times. Ever since middle school, I've only been in the yearbook once, and that was for my regular picture. I never had a picture of myself in a club, walking in the hall, in a classroom or whatever. And every year it kinda disappointed me, since it showed that I was "unpopular". All the popular kids have their picture in the yearbook multiple times, and you can't deny it, it's true. Well, this is probably the first time in my life where I'm in it more than once, and my zipper happens to be down. Oh well. Glad I told this story to the entire freakin' world. You better enjoy this, since I'm not telling my friends about this personally. Don't expect updates either on a biweekly, regular basis. I have a lot of homework (for computer science) to do, and I'm into Counter-Strike a lot. What does that mean you wonder? Me=not updating. Talk to me online, my AIM screen name is Csyberblue. Write something to me that way, I'm on AIM everyday. Later folks.
12/19/01-10:49pm-Took some of my tests. I got good grades on them. Tomorrow, my class of about 30 people peeps are gonna watch my groups video that we made, and god does it suck. Oh well, I really don't give a damn about it anyway. I think I'm starting to get into Trance music, a lot of techno just sounds the same to me, rock gets old, and I hate bands like Slipknot, and Drowning Pool. And I think those bands are the future of what rock is turning into, which I think is for the worst. Trance is cool because it makes you wanna dance (not like I can), and most of the time they just have cool beats. But between me and my friends, I think I'm the only one who likes trance, oh well. I'm happy again about being class president. I got some work done today about it, got some ideas flowing, so it's all good. I downloaded Vampire Hunter D bloodlust (coolest....movie....ever). If you have broadband, get the 200mb version off of kazaa, some people should have it, and it ain't that bad of quality for being that small of a file. Well, I'm almost out of Mythology class, funny thing is, it's supposed to be a fun elective, but it's really only fun because me and Will make fun of each other the whole period. Like today, instead of working on our final exam, all we did was laugh about some drawings Will made about a gorilla with a snorkling outfit, hilarious. I dunno what I want for Christmas, I can't decide between a PS2, or an Xbox, so I'm just gonna wait until the PS2 price drops at least 50 bucks (I'm hoping for it to happen in Jan. or Feb.). Well, miraculously, my grades are going up in my classes. Unfortunately, I have math starting after Christmas. Call me weird, but I like Math, I like doing Algebra problems. I consider it like solving a puzzle. I think it's the trick to Math, somehow make it fun, and it'll be easy. But I don't like the homework, and I'm not I'm going to be in a shock when for the past 6 months I've had little to no homework, then I'm gonna be getting some everynight. Crappy, I know. I'm getting into Counterstrike now, but I suck major cajones at it. Like in a hour of playing, I may have killed 3 people. But it's fun, so it's ok. I guess that's it, later peeps.
12/15/01-6:55pm-Midterms and Finals are coming up for my classes. God does it suck. I saw Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust, it's so pimptastic and cool that'll it make your nose bleed because of the overload of sweetness and action. So many zombies get killed it ain't even funny, some friends and I saw the last showing of it here in my city, sorry for anyone in my area that can't see it now. Christmas is coming up, and I don't know what I want, and I haven't evens started to get other people stuff yet. Well, I'll probably add another page to the site or add something below for you peeps to check out what I want for christmas. I'm procrastinating on my homework incase your wondering why I updated. Well, nothing much really going on. I got a gamecube and rogue leader and melee, hmm, I'll probably write reviews on them and put them in the reviews section. Very cool games. That's all peeps, later.
12/02-01-10:28-Another Woah, a person e-mailed me saying they liked my site. How cool is that? Pretty damn cool! Well, I pre-ordered melee, I can't wait for it! Also, great news to fellow DDR players in the SA area. 5th mix is in the mall! 120 songs to choose from, good location, mad crowds are possible! Bad news though, it's 1.50 for 3 songs, which is way too expensive for >5 minutes of playtime. I'm gonna go again. It's close to my house, which is the best part. I should be doing my history homework right now. I wanted to get my weekly homework done early so I could play melee without having to worry about anything, but my damn procrastination habits got the better of me. So, I'll be doing my history homework in place of where I could be eagerly awaiting one of the most spectacular video games ever to grace a console. BTW, penny-arcade.com is one hella funny site, I read 2 years worth of comics in a couple of days. It's awesome, my buddy Sam told me about it a while ago, but I'm just now started getting into it. Well, I thought my comp was starting to work like a dream, absolutely perfectly, but just 1 day after I fixed it, it's starting to having problems again. Mainly being things that should stay over after I shut down my comp, but don't. Like the background on my comp, and my homepage keep reseting. Damn you, you computer from hell! DAMN YOU! *pets computer and appologizes for being mean to it. Well, school still sucks. I've never realized how a teacher can actually dislike you, I thought all teachers were supposed to be neutral and such, but they aren't. Here's a word of advice: Never say you think a class is a waste of time and is boring when a teacher is within a 3 foot proxemity from you. That is all. ~End Transmission
12/01/01-1:34am-Woah, it's been a long time since I last updated. Why you may ask? well, it boils down to one reason, I was abducted by man-eating tiny hippos. They captured me and took me to their leader, where I was held and brutally tortured to try and say the alphabet backwards, but I couldn't do it. And so they beat me. Then I told the hippos some bogus story, and they said, "WTF you talkin' 'bout Willis?" Then they got sick of me, and they dropped me at my house. At that's how I'm here now. Woah, that was the dumbest story I've ever wrote. Well, I like the DVD's, but I haven't watched them all yet. I got a gamecube, and got rogue leader. I'm getting Super Smash Brothers Melee on Monday or Tuesday, w00t w00t! School is really starting to suck. Everyone of my classes blows chunks. I've really have done nothing productive this whole time since I last updated. Well, my brother and my mom are gone until tomorrow night (ssswwweeeeeeeeeeeeeetttt). Ah, no nagging from my mom for over 24 hours, it'll be blissful. My comp screwed up hardcore, and I needed to install a new harddrive, so I totally wipped out the OS and everything, and reloaded everything (or at least I'm trying to). It's a pain in the butt, but my comp is running a lot better now. I may update tomorrow, depending on how things go. I must get more hits per day than sam does, I must. Expect semi-frequent updates to this site. -End Transmission
10/21/01-10:03pm-I should be reading my History Book, I got a quiz on it tomorrow, and I haven't even read the chapter. But you know what? I don't wanna! So I'm gonna update. I'm expecting in my dvd's tomorrow, it's the entire series of Trigun, DNA^2 (DNA squared), and the movie: Ghost In The Shell. Payed a 100 bucks on it, and it better be worth it, otherwise I'm gonna kick some arse. Well, probably not, but I really do hope they're cool. Umm, what else? Nothing really. Adult Swim is cool, go watch it. I'll still be added up other pictures here. I'm going to be moving soon (like in a week) into a rent house over by sam and brian. It's kinda a crappy house, but I gotta deal with it for 10 months. Then I'm moving again into the country. That'll be the day. The only thing good I can think about moving into this rent house is that it's going to make me appreciate moving into the new house even more. Well, that's just about it. Later.
10/17/01-7:16pm-Due to popular demand (well 2 people actually), I took down the pic of my dogs (it was too fruity as one comment suggested) and I took down the pic of me playing DDR, simply because it was a crappy picture of myself. Well, I may add another DDR pic soon if I can get a good one. I should add up some more pics to the Picture Gallery soon. That is all.
10/16/01-9:35pm-Well, once again instead of doing my homework due tomorrow, I'm doing webstuff. You'll notice a new page is open, I've procrastinated on it long enough (actually, I just put it off until I could get a better name, and luckily today my buddy Will told me one, it was gonna be called "Funny Pics" ya, I know that's dumb and unoriginal). Well, I also updated the links section for Sam and Will, who I just haven't got around to adding until today. Well, that's basically it. I'll be posting more and more pics in the gallery, so check back about once a week for more hilarious stuff. Or if you just can't wait, IM me and I'll send them to you directly. Later Everyone.
10/7/01-9:36pm-Heh, why am I updating, because I'm bored of course. A lot of stuff has happened. Well, I did get Vampire Hunter D, but I don't like it as much as I had hoped. The story line just doesn't make that much sense to me. But the new Vampire Hunter D movie is in theater's, and it looks awesome, and I mean AWESOME! I can't wait to see it. Well, I'm still basically at the same level at DDR that I was as of the last update. It's sad really, my buddy Sam got the game, and he's just as good, if not better at the game than I am. Oh well. I got Diablo II yesterday, it's a very cool game. The battlechest is a good deal, if you don't already have the game. Well, I haven't got the Trigun DVD's yet, but I should soon, I found a good seller on ebay about them, but thinks got a little screwy, and I haven't payed for it yet. Well, I got Advance Wars for the GBA, it's a very, very cool game. But I haven't played it recently. Hmm, I'm on AIM a lot more than I used to be, so check out my screen name at Csyberblue, and send me a message. I'm getting into the band called Five Iron Frenzy, from my pal Nathan who told me about them. It's a very cool band, and it's a nice change from what I'm used to. Well, my buddies site is back up, you can locate it at http://zer0_custom.tripod.com it's just as cool as ever. Well, I guess that's it for this update. Wish me luck on the PSAT's coming up. Later.
9/18/01-8:27pm-I'm bored, I got nothing better to do, so I decided I'd spend a little bit of my time here. Well, I've thought about making a DDR site that's specifically AvantGo (if your a palm user, check it out) comptable. Well, my DDR pad broke, so I'm buying new one's. I'm also buying the emperor's new groove on dvd, because I like that movie a lot. I'm also going to get Vampire Hunter D this weekend at the mall if I can, and I also want to be Trigun on DVD if the seller that I want to buy from accepts paypal. I got some funny pics I want to post, maybe I'll make a funny pic page, but that'd be too cliche and kinda dumb. IM me on AIM and I'll send some hilarious pics to ya. BTW, people do NOT ever go to uglypeople.com, unless of course you want to see fat men naked, only wearing a diaper...it's sick, but helluva funny none the less. Also, go to humanforsale.com to see how much you can be sold for. It's fun, check it out. Hmm, what else? Oh ya, my buddy sam is making another site, so goodluck to him. Also, my buddy's Jacob, Mark, and Brian all have jobs now, leaving Sam and I jobless. Oh well, I'm not in that much of a hurry to earn money and scrub toilets anyway. I make enough on allowance to get what I want every now and then (see dvd's I want above). Well, if anyone has Mario Tennis for N64, and doesn't want it anymore, e-mail me, I want it, I'll trade it. Hmm, what else? Well, umm, err, I dunno. I guess that's it.
9/9/01-5:07pm-well, it's been a month since I last updated, and no one looks at my site so I doubt if anyone even cares if I do do this update. Oh well, here goes. I did get in those other 5 DDR games, and I got 1 more from a friend. The best is definately Extra Mix, it's has the tee-ightest songs in all the games. School started, and it sucks, the only good thing is that my only real class of the day is first period, but I hate history. It's helluva hard, and we get quized everyday. The worst thing of all: the class is all year, dammit. Well, in other news, Cartoon Network's Adult Swim lineup is very, very cool. Check it out tonight (Sunday) and Thursday's 9-12pm Central Time. Well, in the past month I did get my summer homework done (yay!), played a lot of DDR, but not enough to actually pass most 7 foot songs...I've met some cool people in my classes in my school that I didn't know before. I've also been checking out ddrfreak.com's message boards everyday. I hope I'm not getting obssessed, but it's just fun to go there and read posts and give your opinion. I got photoshop 6.0, but I don't use it. Why you ask? Well, I just don't really have a reason to use it, and to learn the program. Oh well, and just to let you know, I didn't buy it, thank goodness (it's a $600 program). If anything important, interesting, or something else happens, expect it to be on this site last. If you want to talk, e-mail me, I always reply. Until the next time I update, I wish everyone a farewell in their life adventures.
8/9/01-1:56pm-I appologize for the lack of updates. My excuse: no reason to update. Nothing's really happened. I got my game enhancer in the mail, but I really doubt you care, I mean who would? Well, I gotta do my summer reading. My mom said that if I get it done I can go to Malibu for about 4 hours on Saturday. Well, that makes me happy. Nothing else really has happened.
8/14/01-5:56pm-I need to write. I got some things I just need to write about it. Maybe if your interested, you'll keep on reading. Tomorrow school starts, and I still haven't finished my summer homework. But I don't really care that much, I just want to go play Paper Mario (been playing it a lot for the past 2 days), but my mom says I'm grounded from video games until I get my homework done. Dammit. Second thing that's bugging me. I was checking out my favorite message board, reading some of the topics they had. And wham, something came up that's just freaky. Here is the thread, http://www.ddrfreak.com/forums/UltraBoard.cgi?action=Read&BID=5&TID=26425&SID=337586 . Read it, and it'll freak you out. If you read it, and you know me, you probably guessed that I'm too chicken to click to see the picture. But my damn curiosity is getting to me, and I want to see it. But I don't want nightmares, so I'm not going to. If you get the cajones to look at the picture, go ahead, but I sure ain't, but I still do wanna see what their all talking about. BTW, csyberblue is me, in case you saw that little post. 3rd things that's bugging me, my Dad. He started teaching his college class today for the first time in his life, and he's there right now. I hope he's doing well, I wish the best for him. Well, what's really bugging me is that picture. I told my family about the topic today at lunch, and my bro said he'd look at it, but my Dad said that if he looks at it, then my comp will be taken away for a month. So anyway, no one in my family will be checking it out, but if you want to see it, go ahead, be my guest. It's kinda similar to the goats.ex something like that link, btw, if you ever get something similar to that, don't click on it, unless your curiosity gets the best of you. Well, anyway, expect fewer updates as the weeks go bye. I still like the site, mainly because it deals with me. But there is really is nothing to update, but hey, if you want anything up here, don't hesitate and just give me an e-mail. The purpose for this site has been fulfilled. It was meant as a distraction for me over this summer, and it did that. Damn, this summer went by fast. What'd I do this summer you wonder? Went on 3 mini-vacations with my family, sat around the house, and basically played video games, and did nothing. That's cool though, most people don't do a lot of stuff during the summer anyway. Well, I have a lot of ideas for our class this school year, and I really want to see my ideas come into action. My friend Nick is making a site about our school, and some of the people there. As soon as I get URL I'll post it here. Also, if I see any good movies, it'll be put up here. I still would like to add a guestbook, my pic, and a counter, but unfortunately, with this dumb site builder program from Tripod, it limits me into not adding those things, except for my pic. Well anyway, I never did make that DDR site yet, mainly because a team name has not been decided on yet. I still want to add more recruits, so if you got the skills, e-mail me. Well, that's basically it. Until later everyone.
8/5/01-3:07pm-well, instead of doing my summer homework, I'm surfing the net. oh well. I bought a game enhacer from a site, So that means I'm expecting that in, all those DDR games, and a cool new CD, yay! I'm learning doubles in DDR now, hopefully I won't make a fool of myself when I try it out at the arcade.
8/4/01-1:24pm-I met up with Matt last night and we played DDR at Malibu. It was cool, and we got pretty large crowds, around 30+ people watching us. In 2 hours of playing, we only spent about 8 bucks. Fun, Fun. Well, that's mostly it. I agreed to a deal for my stabbing westward CD for the new Gorillaz CD, cool 'eh? And I'm trying to get the Vampire Hunter D DVD, that's what I want next, then after that I want the Trigun series on DVD, then I think I'll be cool on the anime series for a little while, since Chester already has most EVA, and sam has Kenshin and Akira. Well, that's basically it. Bye!
8/3/01-2:01pm-I chatted last night until 3 am, it was fun. I also saw Akira, and all I gotta say is that movie is helluva deep. Awesome anime, check out the reviews section to see if you'd like it. In other news, I'm going to the arcade tonight. Matt and I (Matt is the other member of the ddr team) are going show off our skillz, hehe. I'll tell ya how it went when I get back home. Well, that's basically it.
8/2/01-2:26pm-I'm updating because Sam told me to. Well, nothing has really happened. There will soon be an actual team, and it's the only team in San Antonio. Chester doesn't know if he can join, so if your interested even remotely into the game, well by golly give me an e-mail! Umm, do you guys like "Team Cadence", "Team EVA", or "Team Genii" better? Look up genii in a dictionary if you don't know what it means. Btw, remember that trade, where I was supposed to get Skies of Arcadia and House of the Dead 2? Well that damn bastard is now suspended, he never sent my games, he has mine, and he screwed over 2 other peeps. Well, I can contact switchouse and get money compensation, but I have to be verified, and I'm not, so I don't know what's going to happen. Well anyways, my buddy got Akira, I was going to get it too, but he invited me to go see it tonight, and I'll write a review of it soon after I see it. There was this one dvd at suncoast, it looked so cool, but gosh darnit I can't remember the name of it. But it was weird because it was 40 bucks for just one dvd, and it did not have that many extras. But heck, it was a mecha anime with lots of action, so it suits me well. Well, as soon as I think up a team name, all ddr stuff will be posted on a new website. Oh, I wanted to mention, I hope the picture to the right doesn't offend you. Heck, this site is supposed to be fun right? come on, you know it's funny...I got some other great pics that'll be posted up soon. Later everyone.
7/31/01-10:42pm-that meeting this morning went great. I shouldn't have been so nervous. I didn't get my class schedule though, but that's ok. BTW, I'm going to make a ddr site, and clear this site of all ddr stuff. I'm making a team right now, so any San Antonio players that are interested please give me an e-mail at vex@texas.net. So far my buddy Chester wants to join (I think), and then someone who I don't even know e-mailed me saying that he wanted to join. Yay! And I'm pretty sure I could get other players to join as well. There are no requirements in case your wondering. All levels of skill are welcome. I'm still trying to think up a team name though, have any suggestions e-mail me. Nathaniel said he could do 5 foot songs, but I really don't think he can. I want to go to Malibu this weekend, and bust out some madd skills, hehe. I added that rant I wrote, and changed quote of the day to quote of the moment, since it's a pain in the butt to get a good quote everyday. I really want to know, does ANYONE even look at this site? Probably not, but I hope people do. Well, I'm out, peace everyone.
7/30/01-2:55pm-just like 2 minutes ago someone came unexpectedly to look at our house. I'm moving, and our house is on the market. I had to clean up my room and gather up all the laundry and everything else. It was nuts! Well, the family that visited sounded interested. In other news, I'm kinda nervouse about tomorrow. Why you ask? Well, tomorrow is Prep Days. That's when the entire school gets their school id's, class schedules, etc. Well, that isn't the nervouse part. The weird thing is seeing all your friends again after 2 months. I also really gotta work on my summer project, since school is only in a couple of weeks. If everything goes right, expect an update tonight. Heck, does anyone even look at this site anymore? Probably not. I also have a rant I wrote that will be posted up in the newly named, "Writtings" section. Later.
7/29/01-8:10pm-Sorry again for the lack of updates. My family and I went on a mini vacation to Corpus Christi. We went to the beach, and went to the local arcade of course. It was a lot of fun. Grr, nothing really new. That jerk still hasn't sent me my games from switchouse. Well, that's basically it. Later.
7/27/01-1:22am-sorry for the lack of updates. I blame my addiction to video games (specifcally Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and DDR) to my lack of updates. Sorry about that. Grr, I still got to post a pic up, and get some new puzzles, but don't worry. They'll come soon enough. I've now played DDR at 5 different places, and my 6th one will come tomorrow. Oh ya, you know what's kinda weird? I got some tooth growing in. Their my 16-year old molars or wisdom teeth or something, but I'll tell ya one thing, it hurt's like heck, I can barely eat out of the right side of my mouth! I'll update tomorrow. Have a nice day everyone.
7/24/01-2:51pm-Today's quote of the day is brought to you by Kaitlyn. Enjoy. Well, I told her I'd fix the Erin Mazur story, so it'll be revised now (look below). Nothing new, have a nice day everyone.
7/23/01-3:52pm-Another reader of this abnormal site has joined. My cousin Brandi has recently found out about this site, so let's all give her a group hug and welcome her! well, ok, I know you can't do that, but hey, it's the thought that counts! In other news, my dad today took a pic of me while I was sleeping, wanna see it? If you do, e-mail me saying you want it up, then I'll post it. Well, that's all I gotta say. Later!
7/23/01-1:43am-well hello again. How are you all doing? I never did go to Malibu, but it's ok. I'm thinking about starting a DDR team (Sam, you reading this?) Ack, I just realized that I never did add another puzzle, or a pic of me, but it'll be up soon. Well, that's all I really gotta say, night everyone.
7/22/01-2:25pm-hello. I got some interesting stuff to talk about (at least I hopes it's interesting). I went to Gameworks last night, for an hour, and then when I was playing ddr, Erin Mazur came up, and we hadn't seen her (or her family) in about 5 years! Kaitlyn is probably the only one who know's who I'm talking about since my buddy Jacob doesn't visit the site, but do any of you remember her? well, it turned out that they were waiting to see Jurassic Park 3, along with us. There was a helluva long line to see the movie, but my family got pretty good seats. But it was interesting to meet up with Erin and her family again. In other news, I starting playing some ddr with someone who was really good, and we started doing some pretty challenging songs, and we got an audience of about 20 people. Not bad I say. I want to go to Malibu Castle tonight, and I may be able to bring some friends, so Sam, if your listening (err, I mean reading), I'll be calling ya up later. Well, that's all. Have a nice day everyone.
7/21/01-12:49pm-Sorry for not posting a pic up last night, I just never got around to doing it. I want to let you all know something though before it happens. During school, this site may still be updated, but not everyday probably. Quote of the Day, will probably change to "Quote of the Moment", etc. There may be some other slight changes, but I don't want any of you to be disappointed if I don't update everyday. Oh ya, I also wanted to know, have any of you tried that Mountain Dew slurpie at 7/11? I want it! I'm a mountain dew junkie, infact, you could probably say mountain dew j00s me. Well, hope you all are having a nice day. Later everyone.
7/20-01-8:36pm-how ya'll doing? My grandpa is over right now, chit chatting with my parents. Nothing really happened today, I got my PE class book in, and it really pisses me off. We payed $43 for the book, expecting it to be a hardcover book, with color. It turns out it's spiral bound, and all the pages are photo copied! In some of the places you can't even read the text! argh! I gotta deal with it though. I may start working on the class soon. Still expect a pic of me up a little later tonight.
7/20/01-1:45pm-hehe, if you look to the right, you may see something that might confuse and/or scare you, it is alright, I felt those same reactions when I saw it too. I got an e-mail postcard from my pen-pal in argentina, and he sent me this. What is he thinking! That I'm fat or something! grr...hehe, it's funny. I have no idea why he sent it to me. Above the picture it said "Somos los mejores!" which I think means, "We are best friends!" and then the picture itself says, "We Are!" but I could be wrong. I haven't taken spanish for 2 months, and I didn't pay any attention when I was in Spanish 3, so forgive me if there's an error in my translation. Well, I hope you guys got a kick out of it. I still have to post up my pic and the guestbook and stuff, expect a pic of me up today, and the guestbook and others sometime this weekend. Also look below for 2 new little update thingys. Their both funny and true, hope you like them. Laters.
7/19/01-2:35pm-hello once again. My toe is hurting like a broke mofo. Hmm, I stayed up last night, betting my brother about stuff on tv, but it just ended up that we were even. I wanted to win some money too! Oh well. Today I'll add that picture of me up, and this weekend I'll add the guestbook, weekly poll, and counter. The weekly poll is going to be about pictures on the site, but I need your opinion, so I'm gonna add the poll. Unless I need your imput on something, I'm normally going to make funny, cool polls for you guys to check out. I also need to notify you guys of something. If you look below, I have a little section called, "What I'm thinking right now" I like adding stuff there, but everytime I do, I have to cut and past, wait for the page to load and so on to put it in the history section, and it's a pain in the butt. So I'm still going to update the thing below, but there's going to be no more in the history section, on the other hand, the other 2 sections will still be updated on that page. Oh, btw, if any of you out there have an Pro Action Replay/Ghetto Game Shark Imitator/Game Hunter, etc. and are willing to sell it, give me up a ring, or e-mail me. Adios muchachos.
7/18/01-5:08pm-yo word up homiez, how's it going in yo crib? dawg I am bored as a broke dogg. Ok, well that was dumb, and now you know I can't talk g funk or ghetto talk. Well, I've been playing ddr, and it's kinda weird. It's getting really hard to do the 4 songs I want to do in order. I have to take a little break between them. I made a 4-song list that I want to practice, then bust out on the arcades. Ugh, it's so hard! You may notice at the bottom I added a new daily update thingy. Hope you enjoy it. Later peeps.
7/18/01-1:40pm-hello everyone. As you read this, I shall be working on a way to get a guestbook and tracker up. I also decided to add a new thing, called "The Weekly Poll". Should it be on the main site, or should another page be dedicated to it? I dunno, I'll think about it. I also added a new picture of my dogs, and I took down the old ones. I told my grandma about this site, I hope she likes it, though her modem may slow her down in the graphic intensive areas. Later.
7/18/01-3:14am-ya, I know it's late. Damn insomnia, oh well. I decided to update again because I just wanna talk, unfortunately, my family is asleep, and all my friends have already gone offline, that's ok though. There's 2 things I want to add to this site. First, I want a guestbook, Second, I want a way to track how many people have been to this site. The only problem is this, the tripod site builder program I use to edit this site, isn't really a great program for webpages. I don't how to use HTML, and quite frankly, I don't really have the urge to learn how to use it. So I'm stuck with this program, and it doesn't allow me to add a tracker, or add a guestbook, but I'll try to figure out how to do it. Hmm, in other news, I plan to go to Game Works on Friday night, and you know what that means. Actually you probably don't know what that means, so I'll tell ya what I'm talking about. Game works has a dance dance revolution machine (wow, you probably could've guessed it, but anyway), and I have my hopes up that it'll be crowded. I want to get a little bit better at the game using the home version before I go. I already got the 4 songs planned out that I have to practice. It's gonna be hard though. If you've ever played the game, and actually care about my gaming life, then my goal is to move up from 4 foot songs, to 5 foot songs by Friday. It's probably gonna be tough, but the thing that's gonna hinder my progress the most is the problem with my toe. For some reason or another, I have an in-grown toenail on big toe on my right foot. I know what you're saying, eewww, that's nasty, fix it up. Well, I'm trying, it isn't really healing well, and I have pain in the toe everytime I press down on it hard. Well, that ain't good when your trying to dance with your feet. So I gotta get it cleaned up by Friday. I had an incident yesterday, when I went to the arcade, because I pressed down on my toe a little more than I should have, my toe bled a little, and it hurt a lot. I don't want that to happen again. Sheesh, I am so bored, but the only problem is that I keep procrastinating on my summer reading book. Hmm, I just thought up an idea. Maybe next time I meet up with my friends, I'll take some pictures of them, and with their permission I'll post them on the site. That'll be fun. Although I think that most of my friends probably don't want their picture taken. Hmm. Well, it's 3:53am now, and the house is quite and still. I'll be going to bed soon. Oh ya, I almost forgot, I wanted to add another picture of me playing ddr, but for some reason it got deleted from the camera. But tomorrow, I may get my bro to take a pic of me playing on the home system. I'm really pumped. Oh, I would like to mention this. I know that 98.53438239% of you don't give a hippo's hoot about dance dance revolution, and I respect your thoughts. There's other stuff on this site that I hope interests you (like the brain puzzles, quote of the day, etc.). I just really like the game, and I want to tell others about it. Even though you all probably think that a game in which you dance is probably the dumbest thing ever invented, I just want to tell you that it's really fun, and if you ever have the opportunity to play the game, or see someone who's good at it play, it really will probably amaze you. I'll think up, or find another brain puzzle for all you crazy math types out there in the next couple of days. And I plan on adding a lot more pictures, just because it's fun to show people what the life of teen like me is like. I also want you to know, that I do understand that the pic you see on the ddr page is quite large, and may take a while to load. Well, the problem is being addressed, and a friend of mine has told me about a program that can compress the size of the pictures. But honestly, I don't want to mess with the program, and if it ends up that everytime I want to post up a new picture I have to spend even more time messing with it to change the size, will probably hinder the amount of pics I post on the site. So I won't be changing the size of the pictures. Btw, silly me, I thought that you couldn't add .gif pics, but you can, you can also have animated pics (see above right). I added more pics, changing the pic on the contact me page, and elsewhere. Hope you like them. I also added some important information on the ddr page for anyone wanting to play the import on their local home system. I felt that these daily writings were to hard to read, so I changed the font and got rid of the default italics. I hope you enjoy this better. Well, it's late now, and I better get off. Have a nice night, and expect mucho updates tomorrow around mid-afternoon. Goodbye everyone.
7/17/01-11:36pm-well, well, well. After about half an hour of trying to install, trouble shoot, then reinstall the digital camera software, I finally got it working (with the help of my Dad). By the time you read this, a new section will be added, appropriately titled, "DDR". There's a pic in there. I also wanted to put up a new picture of me and my dogs, but I haven't really gotten a good picture yet, check back tomorrow for them. Well, that is all, have a nice night.
7/17/01-9:04pm-hello everyone! thanks for coming once again to visit the site. I got some more to talk about. I went to the arcade today, and got my groove on with some ddr. I was playing, and the largest crowd I gathered today was about 5 peeps. Heck, there was only like 10 people in the arcade anyway. And it's a Tuesday afternoon, no one really goes to an arcade on a Tuesday afternoon! Well, I was talking with my friend Kaitlyn, and she kinda hinted that I need to update more. So for your viewing pleasure, I'll post up mucho mucho pics. I'll probably add another section, titled "DDR" (Dance Dance Revolution) which will have pics of me and that guy playing, and more ddr stuff when I can think of more things to add. But before I do all that, scroll down for a new quote of the day, etc. that I add. And just to let you all know, I have some really funny pics I want to add to the right, but unfortunately, tripod doesn't allow .gif files, so I'll be limited until I can find some better pics. You guys may have to wait until tomorrow (or later on tonight) for me to get up those better pics, because I gotta install the camera software on my comp. In other news, I'm bored. Just thought I'd let ya'll know that. Later everyone!
7/16/01-12:26pm-wow folks, I have a LOT to talk about! do you wanna hear it? I sure hope you do, because I got some interesting stuff to talk about. Well first, my trip to Houston was fun, 2 things stood out above everything else. First, in Houston they have a store called Fry's Electronics, and let me tell you, it's as close to heaven as us geeks may get. Imagine a Best buy, pumped up with more stuff, a better collection, then add a coffee shop in there, and a book store, and some cool scenery for the store, that's Fry's. I almost cried when I first saw it, it was so beautiful (j/k). I also went to a nearby arcade there, and of course I saw Dance Dance Revolution USA version, man, I had to bust out some moves! I get on, start doing some kinda hard songs, and I get an audience, the best thing is that after I was done, some people started clapping for me! wow, I felt so proud. Then I went off to go play some other games, I come back over to the machine, and a big crowd has formed around this one guy that is busting out moves like mad, he's doing stuff that normally takes about a year of practice to do. I was amazed, this dude rocked. Well, after he was done with the game, I chatted with him for a minute, and then we challenged each other. We went head to head, macho y macho. Let's just say that he schooled me, but that's because I was wearing sandals and they kept slipping off (hehe, it's true, but that's a lame excuse to why he beat me). Well, we had a huge crowd watching us, and it was a lot of fun, I hope to do it again sometime! Well, some other stuff happened on the trip, but you guys probably don't care about it. Look under the daily quote for something my dad said on the trip. Ok, in other news, on the trip, my family got a digital camera, and it's a lot better than the one I have for my comp. So pretty soon, I'll take a better picture of myself and post it up. I'll also take some better pictures of my dogs. Yesterday, I also got a DVD player, and princess mononoke for dvd, check the reviews section for a review on the movie. In some final news, due to unfortunate cercumstances, that I'm not exactly sure of, ZeroNet has been indefinately closed. It shall be missed. Well, I may be going to the arcade later, I dunno really, but if anything happens, I'll let you dear viewers know! I also have 2 pictures from when I was playing ddr with that guy, I'll post those up, and some other pics later on tonight. Adios!
7/13/01-8:06pm-Alright, I just cleared up the main page, who knows, maybe you'll find out that I actually write something at the bottom of the main page! I'm also going to try to change the main page pic everyday, or every other day to spice up the site. Also, I think I've mentioned this, but I thought I'd talk about it again. If you move your cursor over any of the pictures on the site, and leave the cursor there for about 3 seconds, a message will pop up. I added some funny comments on most of the pictures, so check it out if you have some extra time. Have a nice night.
7/13/01-7:28pm-I'll be leaving on a trip tomorrow, and I won't be back until Sunday night. I'm going to Houston. I'll try to think up something to add before I go. I'll probably clear up this main page here, and move all these old news topics into the history section, that way the main page can be cleaned up and look a little better. Later!
7/13/01-2:28pm-konnichiwa everyone, I hope your having a fine and dandy summer so far, as for me, I haven't even started my summer project yet, but it's so damn boring. I really should get started on it soon. In other news, donuts are good. I never appreciated the really big sugary donuts with frosting a red cherry goo in the center until last night. Hmm, I'm bored, I wanna go to the arcade or something today. I want to add a new section to the site, but I don't know what to add, drop me a line if you have any suggestions. Later.
7/12/01-5:36pm-hello again. I did see the Final Fantasy Movie today, a review of the movie is now in the reviews section, check it out if your interested. I'll sum it up on the main page though. If you have played any final fantasy game, particulary Final Fantasy 7, then you may be slighty disappointed in the movie. Otherwise I think it's a great view for all. I'm doing another great swap on switchouse. Check this out: Virtua Fighter for Dreamcast ($7.50 new) for Metal Gear Solid for Game boy Color, heh, I know what your thinking, "John, you crazy mofo! A dreamcast game for a game boy game?" well, if you've ever played VF for the DC, then you know what I mean, VF sucks, plain and simple. That's why I love switchouse, swap your old stuff, get cool new stuff. Try it out everyone, you may just get what you want. And it's free, just to let you all know, you only have to pay shipping for your item that your sending. Anyway in other news, I got my glasses repaired, the screw kept coming out (I was blind as a mole for about the 10 minutes that they took to repair it), but why do you guys care about that? Well, I'm bored again, that's why I'm writing all this useless jibba-jabba. Hmm, that gave me an idea. I added another section to the site, called "History", it has all the old data that was on the main page, and some other stuff, it'll be a cool place to get quotes from soon. I have to go, but until then, later!
7/11/01-10:48pm-well, I didn't see Final Fantasy, and I did go nuts, but only for like a minute and a half, then I calmed today and took 27 and 1/2 deep breaths. I'm gonna see it tomorrow. Well, I'm bored again. Peace out ya'll.
7/11/01-2:05am-ack, time flies when your on the internet. Well, kaitlyn, just for you I put up a different pic on the about me section. I had a picture of myself, and used my crappy computer camera to take it, I appologize for the quality. In other news, well, there is no other news, I'm bored out of my mind. Oh my goodness, I almost forgot, the Final Fantasy movie comes out tomorrow, err, today. I HAVE to see it, otherwise I'm gonna go nuts and then go see it tomorrow. Well then, I better get to bed. I'll be writing a review of the movie shortly after I see it. stay tuned dear viewers!
7/10/01-10:50pm-Hmm, I now have a moral delema on my hands. Ok, this is the deal, remember that trade that was too good to be true (you can check out the trade by scrolling below)? well, it just got a lot more unbelievable. The trader went on vacation to Florida, recently, and never mailed my package (oh well). Well he said that he was sorry (after I mailed him asking him what's up), and he said that he'd send me $20 for the incovience. Heck, I already was making $20 in profit from the trade alone, but now he's gonna send me cash! I haven't replied back to this unbelievable e-mail, but I wondering if I should tell him to keep his money. I dunno, drop me a line and tell me what you think. In other news, I downloaded a 25mb file today, it took me 5 hours to get it (I was d/l at 1.5-2 k a second). It was supposed to be the first half of movie, but it turned out to be a 5 minute clip, and the first minute and 45 seconds were the intro stuff, like saying THX in the movies. Oh well. I'll probably just go out and pay 5 bucks for the movie at an auction. Incase your curious to see what movie I want so badly, it's End of Evangelion (a great anime series). I've been bored today, I woke up at 2pm, and haven't really done anything at all today. I ate a freeze dried burrito, and that's basically the my day. I'm also debating to put up a questionable picture that me and my friend made. It was on the main page for about an hour the other day, but I took it down. I'm wondering if I should move it to another section. If your curious to what the picture was about, let's just say that chickens and bears don't really mix. I'll be added more pics to the site, one's to the right, and one's at the bottom of the this page. Their really funny, I hope you like 'em.
7/9/01-6:50pm-Hello again, my dear loyal viewers. I shall grant upon you a word of wisdom: NEVER, NEVER, EVER, be the first one to fall asleep at a sleep over, sheesh. A couple of my friends spent the night, and one of the guys fell asleep way to early. So I ended up sticking a rubber frog into his mouth (or at least tried to). We stayed up until about 7 am in the morning, and I'm a little beat. My friends played some ddr, and it was fun seeing them play, they were pretty good for their first time playing. We played soul calibur most of the night, and then Zero and I watched music videos for a couple of hours. A friend of mine, Kaitlyn, recommended that I get a better picture of myself up on the site, so I'll do that soon. That's it for now, laters everyone.
7/8/01-12:58pm-woah, long time since the last update. I blame the lack of updates due to my comp being a real pain in the arse, and the cool games I've been playing. You can check out the reviews of the games in the newly renamed section titled Reviews, instead of Video Games. I'll make another update soon. Until then, good night everybody.
7/4/01-12:46am-Happy Indepence Day, and thank you for actually visiting this site on a holiday, it brings a tear of joy to my heart...hehe. Yesterday I went with my buddy Jacob to go run some errands, and then the unspeakable horror happened. Due to some freak of nature occurence, The Nickel Game Room is closing down. It was the closest arcade to my house and you couldn't beat the deals! Air Hockey for quarter! Now, I'm gonna be stuck going to Malibu and paying their high price/normal priced machines. Oh well. Oh ya, we ate at the Arby's parking lot, and there was a guy and girl arguing, and we were looking through the window straight at them, but they didn't notice us. I think they were ending their relationship because that's how they were acting but I'm not sure. But just remember boys and girls, never break up in an Arby's parking lot, because someone is probably watching you and trying to lip read :)
7/2/01-1:28pm-I just payed for Soul Calibur through paypal, so I should be expecting that game soon in the mail. I'm bored, really bored, really really really bored. Oh well.
7/1/01-9:19pm-Yay! I won the auction, and I beat the high bidder before me by a penny! Muhahahaha! Well, I'll be shipping my end of that swap tomorrow, and I'll pay for Soul Calibur tomorrow, and then that's it! Wow, I got a lot of games to play!
7/1/01-9:12pm-I'm bidding right now on Soul Calibur for the Dreamcast. My brother and I have really been wanting this game. 6 minutes left in the auction, and I'm the high bidder, think I'll win? I dunno. I also agreed to a cool deal on switchouse. I get Skies of Arcadia (another game on my wish list) and House of the Dead 2 (yet another game on the list!). I'm giving him Age of Empires 2, and Who Wants to be a Millionaire (I got it free out of cereal box). Awesome deal, so that means that if I win the auction with Soul Calibur, and get those games in, that's it! My wish list is complete! Yay! 2 minutes before the auction closes now. I'm gonna keep hitting refresh. The excitement!
7/1/01-12:27am-Alright, I'm back home and I got the camera back up and running. Their will now be some pics in the About Me section, and maybe even one or two right here on the main page. Take a look at it if you have a chance.
6/30/01-10:25pm-Well, well, well. This webpage is about to get a whole lot more interesting. I'm borrowing my aunt's digital camera (you know the ones that go on top of the monitor that can take short video and 640x480 pics) for a few months. I'm gonna take some pics of some things like my room, and stuff so you can see where I chill all day. I'm over at my aunt's house right now, running at 31.2bps on her comp! aah! the horror! hehe, j/k. This comp has a tendenacy to freeze up, so this will be the only update for now until I get home.
6/30/01-7:09pm-Hmm, I think I'm gonna go ahead, a mod my playstation to play back ups and imports. Then I want to get DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) 3rd mix and 4th mix. Yah, it'll be a pain in the butt, but I think it's worth it. But I have to wait for the USA version I bought on ebay to come in, then I'll decide if I want to put out the extra $100+ for the 2 other games. Later!
6/30/01-5:44pm-I forgot to mention, I also got in the work book for my summer PE Foundations class. I still have to get the class book, but the work looks so so very easy. I could probably finish up the ENTIRE class in 2 days. You only have to take 1 exam the entire course! hehe, and I have 9 months to do everything! (but I can take another 3 months if I pay like 15 more dollars). Heck yah! If I have any more news, right here is where it will go.
6/30/01-5:28pm-Wow, a lot has happened since I last updated. First of all, I make it my personal goal to update this site everyday, but unfortunately, msn decided to be a little bit dumb, and wouldn't let me log onto the net with my computer. That's why I haven't updated. But that's all over now, because with a light of happiness, my dad decided to get rid of MSN! Yippie! He realized how much msn sucks, and we're going back to texas.net. I'm a happy boy. But there's more to be happy about! If you look below, there's 5 games I want, well since the last update I did get Hydro Thunder ($10 new at best buy). I couldn't pass up another great deal, I got it, it's a fun game, worth 10 bucks, but it ain't worth over $20. Other stuff has happened too! I'm so very close to beating Grandia II, fun game, to short, I'll have beaten it within 35 hours, oh well, I'm gonna try to trade it online for Skies of Arcadia. I also bought Dance Dance Revolution! I payed $45 (includes shipping) on ebay for the american version of the game, and a dance pad, it should be coming in the mail within the next week. Yay! Hmm, what else has happened? I dunno, I've been playing a lot of video games lately. Summer is going by pretty darn fast, I may write another rant about it. Well, I'll probably update again later tonight (as soon as I beat Grandia). Later!
6/24/01-10:47pm-There's 5 games I want: 1. Skies of Arcadia 2. Soul Calibur 3. Hydro Thunder 4. House of the Dead 2 5. Dance Dance Revolution My goal is to get all of them by the end of the summer, but I don't know if that will happen. And it's starting to get to late to get a summer job. Oh well, in August I will be calling a little known place called Funcoland a.k.a. Gamestop. Summer is going by really, really fast. Hope your having a good one!
6/23/01-8:12pm-cleaned up my room, but who the heck cares? I'm trying to think up a new section to add, hmm, have any suggestions? e-mail me! thanks!
6/21/01-4:34pm-my room is a crazy mess, there's crap everywhere! Old toys, board games, everything! Sadly, I have to clean up the mess. You'll notice a new section at the bottom, "Dumb Law of the Month". That is law is a fact, I didn't make it up. I may make another rant tonight, until then, peace.
6/21/01-2:37pm-I have to clean out my closet, sheesh, it gonna take me years to do it! Oh well. Oh yeah, I was really close to trading off my copy of Final Fantasy 3, but decided not to do it, at the last second before me and guy were gonna trade. I really should play FF3 one day...but I'm getting so sick of turn based battles. I'm thinking about buying Grandia II just for the battles alone! It's supposed to be 20 bucks new now, but I can't find it anywhere.
6/20/01-11:06pm-This website I think is starting to become an online journal, and I think that's kinda cool. I added the rant I gave to Zero to the Guest Writtings section. I also took down the MP3 section because tripod is screwing up, and I couldn't add any MP3's, maybe in the next couple of days I'll try it again.
6/20/01-10:09pm-I got back from the arcade a couple of hours ago, is quite a lot of fun, especially when you go there for 2 hours and only spend $4. I'll be writing a rant for Zero's site, about kindess. It'll be posted up here shortly after I send it to him. That's it for now.
6/20/01-4:15pm-I can't help it, I can't do it! I was not going to go on the internet today, and then I told myself I'd just check my e-mail, then kablam! I'm here updating. Oh well, I'm going to try not play ANY videogames today. Later on today, I want to write a rant about some stuff I got on my mind. It'll be posted on Zero Net (see link page).
6/20/01-2:46am-Sheesh, after less than 24 hours after the site is up, I experience a near fatal error to the site (or at least the main page anyway). Thanks to my good friend Zero_Custom, owner or Zero Net (see links page) we are up and running again. I owe ya one Zero! I fixed some things here and there, and added a couple more sections since when the site was first put up. I'll be updating more today, and I'll try to think up another section or two to add. I'll also try to add a guestbook.
6/19/01-Today I made this webpage, ya I know it's crappy, and that it's made with simple templates and everything, but I'll spice it up with my own creativity.
