   Happy Groundhog Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, it's Groundhog Day. The day when in some God-forsaken Pennsylvania town they pull Punxsutawney Phil (Yes, that is the groundhog's name. I saw the Viva la Bam episode where they dedicated the whole episode to Groundhog Day. Novak getting kicked in teh balls was so fuuny! XDDD) out of his hole and see how long winter is going to last. Enjoy this day people.

Now, before I get to my week, I wanna mention something. I just went to Tristan (Spades Ace for those who don't look at my friend's list) and found out that he is going through some personal angsting issues and he's just down right sick with a cold, and we all know that that's no fun. So, I'm telling you guys to go give him some comforting words and pray for him. Do it now! He doesn't deserve a cold with Metrocon so close!

Okay, so this week. God, if my school doesn't stop giving me tests I'm going to go insane. I've had one test every day since Monday and I'm pretty sure I've got another one today. T__T It sucks. But the good thing is that I have been doing superb at them all so far. Hopefully this will keep up and I won't suck on my next one.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen! It's big! It's bad! It plays acoustics of a very country nature! It's the Randinator! Well, Randi was pleased with my ability this week. Still teaching me new stuff to play. No new drummer yet, but it's great that she's looking. Oh, and she took a Benadryl (sp?) during the lesson for her allergies and kept almost dozing off during the lesson. It was so funny!

My cousin's came over on Tuesday, which led to me being throughly annoyed with the screaming and constant eating of Chex Mix all day. I swear all they do is eat, eat, eat, and this is how their weight plays out: 13 year old cousin - annorexic. 12 year old cousin - very skinny. 8 year old cousin - Volkswagon. Yeah. Oh! And I forgot to mention that my 12 year old cousin's (who doesn't want me to use his name so we'll call him Gandalf cause he's a LOTR fan) birthday was on Sunday. I should have mentioned that. And they are coming later today after I get out of school, so yeah.

Oh, speaking of cousins, my two cousins from Albany are coming this weekend for a birthday party. We're having the 12 and 8 year old cousin's above and my birthday party at the same time. In case you don't know, Gandalf's is January 29, the cat lover's is February 12, and mine is February 10. I hope I get good stuff (Oh come on. I know I'm gonna get money to go spend. XD) But anyway, I know hijinks will happen with us all under one roof. So, if you're on AIM late Saturday night, hit us up.

Oh, and I got some cosplay done, though VERY little. I drafted part of the pattern for the armor part to my Harry suit. It's going somewhere at least. And I'm going to order my wig soon, along with the last Cradle album I need.

Now sadly, since this is my birth month, I'm taking February off in terms of writing poems. But I will fill up that slot by putting in videos from YouTube. Here's the first one:



Who else but Bam to start my favorite month?!

Now, the first video for my favorite month? Obviously my favorite band! It's Atreyu with "Right Side of the Bed" off their album "The Curse". This song is so awesome, but the video is beyond cool. Solos, concert footage, and gothic wear = TEH BEST! Also, don't forget that I'm still opening that dedication thing to anyone who wants to get in on it. It's open from now til the end of the month. Btw, if I'm not playing someone else's video, all of my videos go out to my valentine, though not this one cause it's a break-up song. XD So, all OTHER videos go out to my valentine. There, that was worded correctly.

Now it's time for a new Band Of the Month! And, yeah, it's Atreyu. These guys have been rocking the screamo scene in Orange County, California, for years now until they released thier first album on Victory Records. Since their second album came out in 2004, they've beem getting lots of attention, especially for their combination of hardcore and melodic music and screams and singing. Their albums are as follows:
Suicide Notes and Butterfiy Kisses - 2002
The Curse - 2004
A Deathgrip On Yesterday - slated for relaese this March
PLEASE check out Atreyu if you haven't already. And believe me, I will run you over to get that new album!

This week's question: What's is your favorite meaningless holiday? (Groundhog Day, Arbor Day, Flag Day, etc.)

Last week's question: Longest phone call was last Saturday with Karen. I swear at point I was going, "You know, this doesn't seem like four hours."

Well, I gotta go just goof around and be a loser. Oh, one more thing! I heard that all day tomorrow, a virus is going to be released on the computer that will infect any computer online. If it gets in your comp, it will destroy any info in your hard drive and make it USELESS to use ever again. So, I'm telling you guys to warn you. Don't use your comp, cause I'm not either. It will be gone by Saturday, so it'll be cool then. So, til next time, pray for Tristan, if you wanna dedicte, do it, and definitly stay (sic).

P.S. I forgot to mention that that part of the poem last week was NOT written by me. It was written by Karen cause I like her writing style and it was badass. Thanks, Karen! ^_^ Oh, and I just heard that Punxsutawney Phil has seen his shadow! That means six more weeks of winter. WOOT!
