I had to get my alergy shot because of new vials. I then went to my grandparents. We went to see the adventures of Tintin where you can read the review here. We went to golden coral for dinner. It was really crouded. We get there and there's like 20 parties ahead of us. Once in I had lots of steak. I had some fries and pizza but as alwayse realized that's cheep food, I want steak. I had about 3 steaks. I love going there. When we got home we watched All in the Family and Popeye. All in the Family reminds me of American Dad in the sence that you have the "smart liberal, bigot conservative, and follow her husband wife." It's quite funny. Afterwards we watched Popeye from way way back in the day. The set is 1933-1938, so the ones we watched were probably 1935 or so. Now I'm watching 90s are all that. Later.

12/28-29/11

Sorry about the missed day. Not much happened. I exchanged gifts with zeldamaster93. I gave him a gamestop gift card and he gave me a best buy gift card. My brother and I went to best buy where I got Sonic Rush and he got Fallout: New Vegas. He checked this time, it was fallout new vegas and not fable 3. And because we used my best buy rewards zone membership when buying the bad copy, we were able to return it for full refund. Thank-you best buy rewards. That night we went to applebies where they had giftcards sitting on the table to buy for people. Naturally I started playing with them, and soon made a mess. Some fell on the table and others on the floor. I cleaned up the table first but when I went to get the floor, I knocked them over again. I also made great progress on penny collecting. Got 7 full rolls now and a bunch that are really close.

Now for today. Finished sorting the last of the stockpile of pennies I got from the bank, no new rolls. I asked a bunch of friends if they wanted to hang out today, but all were busy. I thought I was going to be bored until Max said he was free and wanted to hang out. We were going to go to the mall, but by the time he got to my house to pick me up it was getting late and I had a comitment at 5 tonight. We then decided to go to Barns and Noble and Gamestop. Before going into B&N,  I saw Charlie Langton, or as I call him, the angry Fox 2 News guy. We didn't buy anything but had some fun looking around. And good news for me. I saw 3 friends I haven't seen in a while at B&N. We aren't really close so it was just a little catch up. It was great seeing them again. At Gamestop they had the Sony PS3 special 3d display. That for PS3 only 3d tv that's $500. The 3D sucks, at least by the demo they had, but the ability to have full screen multiplayer on 1 display that is separated by the active 3D glasses, is really cool. Instead of splitscreen or lan with multiple tvs and consols, you can have a full screen single image multiplayer by chosing to view either first or second player. Check it out if you can. Later.

12/27/11

Had to wake up early for an alergist apointment. That was a bit anoying. Oh well, I'm in good health.

Went to the little caesars pizza bowl yesterday. That was really fun. Full story on the main blog. Weird thing, when writing this and testing the link it pulled up a bazillion windows with my blog in it. That was weird. Later.

12/26/11

I was going to make this a pokematic's blog but there's not enough for that. Today I went to some family friends and we exchanged gifts. It was really fun since I haven't seen them in a while. I haven't seen their dog in a really long time so that was really fun. Their dog is 10 years old and is still super hyper active. She opens her own preasents. We got her a thing of rawhide dog treats. She kept wanting to open preasents tough. I got a rubix flash, a rubix cube, and a book called Goodnight iPad. That is the funniest book I have read in a long time. Good fun seeing them.

We also had our christmas party with mom's college friends, the ones we weren't cleaning up for. The majority of the time we played Risk. Risk is a fun game. I was second to winning. Afterwards we played catchphrase, but it fell into chaos of "I'm desctibing guess." No organization, just fun. There were some great moments, like me trying to describe wall-to-wall and pointing to the walls, and describing cook out by not being a grill in, and the word was "rape" and the person with the word said "do this to a woman" and jokingly I said "rape." Kind of awkward but racing against the clock so no one really picked up on it. Loads of fun. Later.

12/25/11

For full story, read the christmas blog here. I do have some stories that I didn't include there though. Because we host Christmas at our house for family, we were told to clean up. But then tomarrow we're having mom's college friends over and we don't need to clean up for them. Ok, so we need to make the house look nice for our family who must accept us unconditionally but we're not caring for the friends that can get away with it. I asked mom if I had it right and she said in a sarcastic manner "yes." Since my cousin who came over is a girl I asked her if she understood and she said no.

I also was mislead by my yahoo portal. I rely on yahoo for interesting news and fox news for real stuff. But anyway, I clicked on an article that said "Is high-octane worth the premium?" For those that aren't familiar with yahoo, when you hover over a thumb nail, you get a brief description of the article, and this one read "A lot of people don't understand what "high octane" means and whether it's a smart buy." With a description like that I was expecting a yahoo science article on the science behind octane. Well imagine my anoyance when I clicked on it and read about how "combining trips saves gas, and everyone else thinks they're special when driving their SUV, and other crap" that isn't about the octane number. They had a small paragraph about octane but all it said was "octane is just how much you can compress it" of which I could have just found on wikipedia. Not even sure if that's right because there were a lot of comments saying that's wrong. This is almost as bad as this article about "the new boyscout ad" but spent the majority of the time bashing boyscouts.

Another interesting thing is what happened to my brother and his new game. We thought it was a new game so at the time I made this post on google plus, but not facebook because they're lame.
"OK, so my brother got fall out new vegas for christmas. It was brand new factory sealed, never been opened new. Inside the case on the disk tray was a disk for fable 3. He poped that in to see if it was actually fable 3. If it wasn't, gold mine. Flaws like mislabled disks are increadibly rare. But it was actually fable 3. Oh well, he's gonna go return it."
Upon further inspection, we came to the conclusion that it's a used game from best buy and they must seal their used games. We also don't have the resete but from what we've heard fable 3 is a good game. Later.

12/24/11

I echanged gifts with the grandparents, that's alwayse been a tradition. We exchange with them on the 24th and then amongst the "our house" family on the 25th. I'll tell you about what I got in the christmas blog. We gave my grandpa "all in the family" on DVD and I tried teaching him how to use the DVD player. Can't teach that old dog new tricks.

We went to mass and that was nice. Sorry not much else. Did do a little cleaning. Oh well. Later

12/23/11

Wow was today interesting. Let me open with my dream. I dreamp me doing many impossible things, mainly remembering the flying and breathing underwater. If I could pick just 1 superpower, it would be flying, just like superman. I remember reading that 99% of people or some other super majority of the population would pick invisibility or stoping time, for "obvious reasons" *wink wink*. I think I read it in a comic book. Well not me, I'd want to fly. Back to the dream. I remember I started flying and asking how am I doing this? I asked people but they didn't have an answer that made sence. Someone tryed wiht physics but that didn't make sense. Someone tried supernatural, like ghosts, but again no sense. It wasn't until my brother told me I was dreaming, while in my dream. The same thing happened the other times. I think I also dreamed that I ate pennies and now I crave pennies. Don't worry, won't eat them because it's illegal and dangerous. I want to be on TV but not my likelyness on 1000 ways to die.

Now for the day. Really fun thing we did today was aluminum casting with the forge. My entire family saves pop tabs, and other parts of the can that don't harm in the returning of them to the store. Well we did that for about a year and have a nice stock pile of scrap aluminum. We melted a fair amount down. So we have this crucible full of nice molten aluminum, with the impurities floating up to the top and scraping them out with a tong thing. So now what? Well there's this exacto knife that we use to cut up cans and not all cans have 10 cent deposits on them, like country time lemonade. I used the exacto to cut the can in half and we poured the aluminum into the bottom half. Melt down the top naturally. It was fun. Now I have 2 really cool aluminum blobs.

I worked on my penny collection. I'm now up to 5 whole years.

Went to family video to return some rentals. Family video is a great store. They had a sign that said that; "while hollywood video and others have liquidated their inventory and blockbuster has declared bankrupsy, we're still alive and well. Everyone loves us and we have the best service with cheap rentals and a great selection. There's also a lot of studios that require a 28 day period between initial release date and when it's available for in the mail and keosk services, meaning that we an have them before them." Good for you guys.

And just because I feel like mentioning it, the american dad christmas special for this year, when all the promo's for it were on adult swim, they said, "Steve and Haily's adopted child-" hold it, steve and haily brother and sister? Come on guys, it's jeff and haily. Later

12/22/11

Ok, so today was cleaning lady day. I had to move my delecate operation to the guest room. We went out for a big breakfast at a local restaurant. We went to Mijer to return bottles and cans. I found Kirby Mass Atack there. Woot. Worked on the penny collection. Saw some behind the scenes work with this production that my neighbor is working on. That was really cool. I brought a friend along and we caught up, and disagreed on subjects, like usual. If we were girls we'd hate each other, but we're not so yeah. Tomarrow we're goona work in the forge. Later.

12/21/11

Today slightly eventful. I rented my brother Dragon Age 2 and me a teenage mutant ninja turtle DVD. I thought it was a classic turtles but it ended up being the 4kids version. 4kids version is all right, but not as good as the classic. Oh well it was free. Family Video, home of the free kids rentals.

I got 20 rolls of pennies for my penny collection. I'm putting together rolls of pennies based on year. I completed 2011 today. Yay. Now just 40 more years.

I went to Taco Bell for lunch. I normally wouldn't mention but I haven't been to taco bell in forever. It was great. Later.

12/20/11

I didn't do much. Played a bunch of runescape. Love me some runescape. I'm jakemydog35 if you wnat to play with me sometime.

Here's a funny thing that happened. I have a tendancy to have crazy follow me. My brother wasn't feeling well so he was taking a nap. All our smoke detectors are hardwired together so if 1 goes off they all go off. I'm making toast, but then get asked to help with something. I didn't put it to super dark, just a little past medium the way I like it. Smoke starts billowing out of the toaster. We act quickly, closing the door to the bacement and dinning room and open the outside door and turn on the fume fan. Luckily the smoke alarm didn't go off. I then asked Mom "isn't it great that I'm home?" Later

12/19/11

Had some fun. Went to the salvation army and got a framed pokemon picture thing, a cool n64 controler that has just 2 prongs, and the 1998 American Godzilla movie. I like that movie and it's on VHS.

Went to Barns and Noble to see what they're like. They got my pokemon manga even though the selection is a little limited. I played around with the display ereaders, and the nook tab is really cool. The nook tab and kindle fire will kill the itampon. If not it will be the android to the iphone. I mean that the itampon will be popular but for those who can't fork up the crazy amount of money they'll get a fire or tab.

Went to loagans roadhouse and had the steak and rib combo. Really good. Later.

12/18/11

Before the fun of the day, own bed. So nice.

Today was quiet busy and fun. First I went to a play thing for my old neighbor. She was in a telling of the Christmas story with church. It was fun to see them again.

Afterwards my brother and I went to this flee market. I've been to better. While I do like VHS tapes, there were just to many of them. In order for me to find VHS gems I need fewer to sift through. There was some cool stands with toys and such. Cool but I'm a gamer, or at least a game collector. I did manage to find sonic the hedgehog for genesis, star fox 64 for n64, E.T. for the Atari, couldn't help but get the worst game ever made, and a cool trigger joystick nes controller. All games work but not sure about controller since my grandparents have the nes. If it doesn't work it looks cool. I also got this 50 cent fantastic 4 comic. And that's 50 cent as in I payed 50 cents for it, not the rapper 50 cent.

Afterwards we went to a Barns and Noble. I had to play with the nook tab. It's really fun and costs half or less of that of an itampon. I looked around and it's quite nice. There manga section was smaller than Boarders but that could have just been the store. But here's the kicker, they had Pokemon Manga. All I care about, Pokemanga. I loves me my Pokemanga.

I watched An American Carol with my dad. Both of us are rather conservative and don't like Michael Moore. We were both cracking up laughing at Michael learning about all the bad things he's done and how his twisted view is bad. If you are conservative or libertarian or anyone that isn't liberal, you'll love an American carol.

I chocolate dipped with my mom and brother. Every year we dip pretzels and cookies in chocolate and give them to people as holiday treats. This year there was some...issues. Mom tried this new thing for chocolate where it's warmed up in the microwave. The chocolate doesn't taste the same so we went back to double boiler. Mom used a different pot that's shallower so it got water in it easier. The chocolate started to clump up and mom was ready to throw it out. My brother and I said save if, we did, put it on parchment paper to cool, and we created "Christmas Crap" because the lumps make it look like, well you can guess the rest. Gonna give some to my friends as a joke. It tastes the same as chocolate just a different consistency. Gonna have some real fun with my Jewish friend with that. Later.

12/17/11

Slept in my own bed. So happy. Watched dexter's lab season 1 on DVD today. Played me some bad fur day. Amazing game. Had dinner with my grandparents. Dad made a roast serloin and it was really good. Also had a fresh ground beef cooked on a smoker cheese burger. So much better than the hocky pucks at the dorm. Later.

12/16/11

Before I get into the fun of coming home on the train, let me talk about my wake-up call. I had to work out a scholarship thing and the person I needed to talk to wasn't in until today. I gave a phone number and was expecting a call, but wasn't expecting it at 9 in the morning when I was still very much asleep. My phone woke up both my roomate and I. I apologized to him and he didn't care much. I steped into the hall as to not disturb him. Long story short, I just wasn't awarded the scholarship yet.

Today was come home day. I am now home. But it wasn't all easy. Yesterday I packed everything up. Had to get my alergy viles and needed to keep them cool somehow. Having no cooler, I went to the den party store to get one of those disposable coolers. They didn't have any so I got one of there stirofome den pop cups full of ice. It worked out fine. Was a bit cumbersome getting all my stuff to the bus, on the bus, on the train, and then into my brother's car. 4 hour train ride and the train was 30 minutes late. Well now I'm home. Later.

12/15/11

No class. Had to go to the bathroom, but then went back to sleep, because I could. I had some things I had to do, mainly talk to financial aid about a scholarship and buy my books. Got the books no problem. Had some trouble with the scholarship. For startes I don't know the name of the scholarship, that made it a little hard. I went to the financial aid people and they had no reccord. Well then I talked to the engineering people and they didn't have any idea. I had to wait because my mom was the only one with info on where to find it and she was busy working so I had to wait on that. Now I need to wait for tomarrow.

I also have a ton of dinning dollars left and they expire tomarrow. I stockpiled for the train ride home, still pleny of dollars left. Gonna buy tomarrow but still probably won't use up my non-rollover bucks. Oh well. Getting all packed up. Later

12/9/11

Last day of lecture!!!!!!!!!!! Also no real lab today. We just showed up and turned in thelast lab report. Didn't learn much for cacl, it was just cool cacl stuff. Chem was nothing but review. At 2 there was a chem review secion. I went and reviewed. I forgot my shot, damn. Gotta do that tomarrow. I learned about this new ios app. It's my xbox, basically xbox without gaming on ios devices. I shed a tear for microsoft today at the horible news. Now what am I supposed to use as an example for what my aunt's icrap can't do? Guess I'll have to rely on flash.

It's finals week. As such I am cutting myself off from the world with exception to what is necessary. No one calls unless serious. I'll read texts but will likely not respond. I will only check my school email as that is important. I told all my friends about it. And this means I won't make blogs until it's all over. If something interesting happens I'll write it down. Wish me luck. Later.

12/8/11

Happy 100th post. And good things happened as well. I had some trouble falling asleep and got on the wrong bus getting to the engineering campus to early, but after that things went fairly well. Calc and tec com were nothing special. I figured out what I need to work on in chem by taking old quizes. Got a nice list.

Dinner was amazing. It was all nice and what not. Table cloths, orderves, carved infront of you ham, motzerella sticks, whole turkey legs, and so much more. Those were some good sticks and ham.

We had a floor meeting talking about what we have to do when going away for break. Not much went on. Later.

12/7/11

I had a chem test today. I forgot my calculator and this test was rather calculation heavy. I solved the problems using logic and doing some work by hand. I don't know how I did. Don't know. If I did bad, I know why. If I did good, I'm a genious.

Because I had the final yesterday, I didn't have graphics. I did laundry and wrote the writeups for the senior design projects I saw. I took a 45 minute nap. I was on my concerta so it was a little weird. When I sleep with concerta, I maintain a level of conciousness. I know whats going on outside in the real world but them dream somewhat. I also have full controle of the dream. I rewound a section and changed it.

Had my students for life meeting and the improv club needed a larger room. I know one of the guys and he was the one who asked if we could switch rooms. We had no issue and we moved. When we were done we moved the table back into the room. They were doing a scene. I guess we ruined the shot. They worked around us.

http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/school-yanks-carols-featuring-santa-god-christians.html I read this and thought "how about, kyles mom is a stupid bitch in d minor?" Instead of excluding everyone, include everyone. Instead of no one winning, everyone wins. Later.

12/6/11

I didn't get much sleep last night. My stupid loud neighbors. Well that lack of sleep caused me to forget something, at least one thing everytime I left somewhere. Almost left without my backpack in my room. Forgot my concerta. Forgot what time it was. Forgot an empty coke bottle in my calc class. Forgot my keys in my door. When it was time for graphics, I made sure to tell myself to bring a lot of unessesary stuff so when I forget something it won't be that bad. When I was at the bus, I wondered if I locked my door. I forgot if I did lock and made me paranoid. Well in graphics I needed my calculator, so when I forgot it, I was relieved. I knew then that I locked the door. When I came back it was locked. Oh well.

So yes, didn't have conserta. Because it was senior design presentation day, we didn't have tec com because our room was being used. That replaced class, and counts as our...our...crap can't remember the name. Add that to the list of forgoten. It's like a thing where we do something that relates to engineering. We need to do those things outside of class. Then had calc, and a quiz there. I think I did good.

For graphics we had our final. Graphics is over. I'm prety sure I did really good. I took a short acting for that class. Needed to focus for that. I could have done something productive in my free time, or did laundry. Need to do that. Last pair of pants. I'll do it tomarrow. It's on my white board, and I have just one class tomarrow so I have time for that.

And really cool thing I found. www.cartoonnetworkasia.com for all your oldschool cartoon network needs. They have what ever happened to robot joans, johnny bravo, time squad, dexter's lab, camp lazlo, power puff girls, fosters, cow and chicken, curage the cowardly dog, grim adventures, and probably much more. If we give them tons of views maybe cartoon network america will have these classics soon. Watch it now, and it works here in america. Later.

12/5/11

Calc and chem, not much special. I studied my butt off for my calc quz tomarrow. Here's an fml moment. I remembered my proffessor for graphics saying something about no class, but I couldn't remember if he said it was today. I asked one guy in my class, and he didn't know if there was either. It's a 20 minute comute TO the engineering campus. I went there, and there was less than half the class there and no proffessor. We then came back on the bus, another 20 minutes. Then 10 minutes waiting so see if there is class. Waisted about an hour. Crap. Had my film makers group meeting. Also discovered this amazing comic. He's brad stine, hilarious, and conservative. Found him on fox news. If you're conservative, check him out. Later.

12/4/11

I had a really weird dream last night. I was like in a videogame and it was like this building. I beat everything so I had full run of the place. I think I beat it in my dream but don't remember. The building reminded me of a mall of some sort.

Well I went to church and worked on chem homework for my upcoming final. Didn't do much today. Later.

12/3/11

Slept till about 11:30. Had me some breakfast cheeseburger and fries. I watched Cooky Jar TV on CBS in the dinning hall. This show called horseland was on, and it reminded me of one of their other shows, sabrina the teenage witch, visually. The episode was about an anorexic horse. It was ok. One of my friends came down at the same time and we had some light converation.

I didn't do much today. Skyped my parents. Watched some TV and Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo on crackle. I had a rib sandwich thing, very similar to the McRib, for dinner at my dinning hall. I also ran into one of my good friends from highschool that's also here at my college at the dinning hall. We had some catching up to do. We talked about how stupid the ACT is and some other things. I need to do some quizes and homework for chem and calc homework. Was going to do some today but it got away from me. Woops. Later

12/2/11 today was not my day

I almost forgot my concerta today. I'm glad I noticed it befor I got to the stairs. Well then when walking to chem lab, some cat followed me and was begging for food I think. It followed me all the way to the chem building, and then it followed someone else. It was my last lab today, and that would be good, ecept that this lab took forever. We had to partially free cycohexane and watch it warm. It took forever for it to freeze. Then we had to time how long it took for it to melt. Now that the cycohexane is done melting, we had to add something to lower the freezing point. That made it take even longer for the partial freezing. Well then we had to do it again so we could get an average for the freezing point. We have a 3 hour lab time, and it took 2.75 hours for me to compleat this lab. I have chem lecure right after friday lab. So ran right to chem. Chem then took longer than normal and was a little late to calc. Well 5 minutes into calc, I got a nose blead. Had to run to bathroom. Luckily I was able to get all the info off the board once I got back, and it was a simple section.

This was kind of funny. I'm at lunch and this guy asked me "what happened in calc?" I thought he was refering to my running quickly out of the room and possibly causeing some sort of sceen. Turns out he missed class and was asking about material. That was kind of awkward but no harm done.

On the brighter side, I went to this presentation on irregular decimals from fractions.I don't want to get into the math, mainly because I don't want to confuse you with really high level math, I'm sick of it from the write up, and I don't remember the exact math for it. I'll screw it up somehow. Basically it boils down that all fractions repeat eventually, no matter how crazy. Oh well. Later

12/1/11

I didn't get much sleep last night. Dumb cough.

I had tech com and watched oral presentations. Afterwards there was some spare time so I was able to show my spongebob clip that I didn't have time to show it during my presentation. People loved it. It's the Krusty Krab Training Video, 7:02, the customer is the precious life blood of the company.

I had calc and because I was tired, I had some trouble keeping focused at the end of the class. I tried taking a nap when I got back to my dorm, and neerly fell asleep. But then the fire alarm went off. Fire drill, (monotonous) yay. I'm standing outside with my spongebob PJ pants on. It was a little cold. Afterwards I think I fell asleep but not quite sure. When I nap with concerta, it's not like normal sleep. I'm like awair of time but not of my suroundings, all I see is black with an occasional image, and it's just different. But when I wake up, I'm compleatly refreshed. I felt a little refreshed afterwards.

I worked on chem for 2 or so hours. I then checked up on my subs. Then watched related videos. Lost track of time and next thing I know it's almost 6. Looks like I'm gonna have some weekend fun. After dinner I did some calc. Then I did the egg drop challenge with my dorm. We won. Read about it on pokematic's blog. Later
