It shall be quick, short and to the point.

Yes, I'm at school, posting, with ten minutes left before Jumpstart. I have to post right now if I want to stay in TehSillyCircus 2, so if this post is really short or doesn't make much sense, then, well, I'm sorry, heh. I have to post right now because the computer at my mom's house is going in for repairs or something; stupid hunk of junk... But, anyway, last night, late last night I defeated the Elite 4 and my rival in Pokemon FireRed and entered the Hall of Fame. And...now I'm stuck. I read in my new GamePro magazine that there's more to do after you've entered the Hall of Fame, but, I can't figure it out. I'm think maybe I have to complete my Pokedex more or something, but, I don't know. I've visited every single town, talked to just about everyone and I can't figure it out. I guess I'll just kind of train and capture more Pokemon until I can figure it out or something. The strange thing about when I beat the Elite 4 was that I beat them with a team that was in their lower 50's while most of the Elite 4's Pokemon were in the upper 50's to lower 60's. That just shows how strategic I am when battling and how good my Pokemon are even up against Pokemon much stronger than themselves. I finally evolved my Growlithe into an Arcanine and my Nidorina into a Nidoqueen; it helped greatly, too. I also caught Moltres with my Master Ball because I was too lazy to spend the time and try to capture it with some other kind of ball. I'm going to go after Articuno next, then Zapdos. I can't go after Mewtwo yet. The guy standing in front of Cerulean Cave still wont let me through. He says that trainers who are truly special and have accomplished something great are the only one's who are allowed to pass so I'm trying to figure out how I can do it. Well, I think I'll just end this now so I have two minutes to check my email and stuff, so later. -DDG

Could Jesus microwave a burrito so hot that even he himself could not eat it?

I kind of, boycotted NetZero last night after it disconnected me for the 4th time within 2 hours. *growls* So, instead of getting back online after getting disconnected, I decided to relax in the living room and watch TV while playing Pokemon FireRed. I got a whole lot farther, too. I've got 7 badges now and I've visited the brand new islands that they added, One, Two, and Three islands(that's what they're called.) I was allowed to explore the islands after I beat Blaine. Bill met me outside the Gym and took me to the islands. I had to do a few things, but I explored the islands thoroughly as I did those things. Then, after I was finished at the islands, I headed off to the Saffron City Gym where I kicked Sabrina's ass with my Pidgeot. ^_^ Current Status: *pulls out GBA SP* Pokemon: Hypno Nickname: Donnie Level: 46 Attacks: Psychic Headbutt Thief Poison Gas Pokemon: Nidorina Nickname: Nidori Level: 46 Attacks: Ice Beam Bite Cut Double Kick Pokemon: Growlithe Nickname: Gianni Level: 46 Attacks: Fire Blast Strength Flame Wheel Rock Smash Pokemon: Raichu Nickname: Cecilia Level: 47 Attacks: Thunder Thunderbolt Mega Punch Shock Wave Pokemon: Pidgeot Nickname: Pippi Level: 47 Attacks: Fly Steel Wing Wing Attack Aerial Ace Pokemon: Blastoise Nickname: Silvio Level: 48 Attacks: Mega Kick Blizzard Surf Hydro Cannon I'm going to do a bit more training before I head off to Viridian City to fight Giovanni. I really want to have my Pokemon ultra strong before I fight him. I want to get them all to atleast level 50. I don't really have much to say... Nothing's happened since my post last night.. so, I guess this is it. -DDG

Feelin' a bit better...

I'm feeling a little bit better now. My throat's not sore anymore, but my nose is still a bit stuffy. I know its only going away because my birthday party is over now. Bleh, I got a bloody nose this morning when I woke up. I sneezed as I was getting out of the hotel bed and went into the bathroom to get some toilet paper and when I was blowing my nose I noticed that I was blowing out blood, not snot. It didn't last too long but, it still wasn't pleasant. Anyway, the Hotel was pretty cool. We spent a lot of time at the pool and we even came up with a new game, heh. Its called Kenshin, Oro? Its the same as Marco, Polo, but you say Kenshin, Oro? instead. There's also Random Kenshin, Oro? where you shout out a random word and then the people you're trying to find shout out the first word that come's to mind. Ooh, that hot tub was really relaxing... So relaxing that we had to nickname it the 'Hot tub of Bad Naughty Things/Thoughts' Hehe, I'm not sure you really want to know why, but you can probably guess lol. I really did enjoy the party, I and I'm sure everyone else, had a lot of fun. ^_^ The only thing I didn't like was the hotel pool, it was fun and all, but I had to condemn it to hell because it scraped up my ankle! :O I have no idea how it happened, I'm figuring that it happened when I hit the bottom of the pool after doing a cannonball into it, hehe. Onto other matters! :O Soccer game Yay! We won our first soccer game! We won! We whooped the other team good, too. We won 7-5! I played Mid-field and defense during the first half and assisted in a goal and then during the second half I was goalie. I missed one shot that was almost impossible to get, so it was ok. The coaches even said that they probably wouldn't have been able to block the shot if they had been playing. But, I didn't let any other balls past me the rest of the game. I played Pokemon FireRed a bit today, and finally got my Hypno caught up with the rest of my Pokemon in level. I think my Hypno's at 41 right now. Blastoise is at 43 along with Raichu; and Nidorina, Pidgeot and Growlithe are at 42. I'm going through the Saffron City Gym right now; when I beat Sabrina it'll be my 6th badge. I think I might train my Pokemon a bit more because, man, those Psychic Pokemon sure can be a handful, whew... Anyway, I'm back over at my dad's house until tomorrow since we have the day off tomorrow. ^_^ I've only been away from the internet for a day and already I've got quite a few things that I need to check up on. Hmm...what else... Oh yeah, Alexa got me 'Mafia' for the PC. I've been wanting to play the game, but, I don't know if this computer could handle it. I complained about the PC aspect of the game, and Xio laughed and pointed out Alexa's not paying attention when grabbing the game. Hehe. There was one other thing that happened this weekend at the hotel, but... due to the fact that I swore that what was said would never leave the room, I can't say here. Kind of like the quote 'What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas', which is what we used to describe that what was discussed in the hotel room, never leaves the hotel room and that the information given out was only to be used as blackmail against each other. Well, it was a great weekend and all, but I'm glad to be back home. ^_^ And I'm glad that it was so much fun. *grins* -DDG

And I become even more miserable...

My cold seems to have gotten even worse. My nose is even more stuffed up and my throat hurts worse; not to mention I've been sneezing and coughing a lot more than yesterday. *grumbles before sneezing a few times* This kind of stuff always seems to happen on whatever day I have my birthday party. This year, its a cold. Last year and the year before, it was my period. And the year before that, it was a cold. And these kinds of things always, always, ruin my birthday party. If I'm not up coughing or sneezing all night, I'm irritable and moody. But other than that, the only thing that might ruin my birthday party is how fucking hot it is. It was cold last night, around 50 degrees Fahrenheit and right now the thermometer says its 91 degrees Fahrenheit. Well, I just stepped outside to feel how hot it is, and I'm sure its around 90 degrees, but there's a nice cool breeze blowing so you can't really feel it. I'm talking to Xio over MSN. Nothing crazy or wacky has happened so far, I'm sure something will happen soon enough though. I think I might do some scans from my Rurouni Kenshin and Cowboy Bebop manga's. Maybe Naruto, too. We'll see though. I dunno what else to say really; I guess I'll have more of an update tomorrow once I get back. Right now, though, I'm going to go get something to eat... -DDG

Cold's suck.

I've got a cold. It sucks. I'm miserable. My nose is stuffy. My throat is sore. My head aches a bit. Its horrible. My legs are also a bit sore from soccer practice the other day, but I still had fun yesterday. I don't really think I got a "winning team" persay, this year, but, I mean, Optimist leagues aren't about winning, they're about having fun. I think I got stuck with a bunch of girls who have only played for one or two years or are just starting, because half of them didn't know how to properly kick the ball or pass it. I showed them all up with my seven years of soccer skills by correctly demonstrating how to kick the ball and how to pass it. I also showed off a bit by using both my left and right feet to score and pass(my dominate foot is my right, but I've become quite adept with my left as well). It felt really weird to be the tallest person on the team; and the oldest. I don't think I've ever been the oldest or the tallest, lol. I'm currently trying to see if I can find a site that has Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen strategy guides. I need to know when Nidorina will learn its last move so I don't use the Moon Stone too early. If I can't find any site's I'll just use an old one for Pokemon Red, since its pretty much the same game, you know. Oh, I got my presents from my step-mom and dad a little while ago. ^_^ I got Kill Bill Volume's 1 and 2, a notebook, 2 packs of Yu-Gi-Oh cards and a Yu-Gi-Oh poster(two of them actually). I also got 5 dollars from my Grandma and a $20 gift card for Sam Goody. *grin* *glances around* Um, not much else to talk about I guess. I'm chatting with Solo over AIM for the very first time, heh. We've never been on AIM at the same time before lol. School was the same-old same-old today. You know, boring classes made fun by hilarious peers. We finally got our lunch cards today. My picture on it looks horrible >.> Well, I guess its a bit better than last year anyhow. Ok, I'm done now. ^_^ -DDG

Dun dun dun!

Writing posts during class while you're supposed to be doing other things is fun. The excitement, the danger, the chance of being caught... Actually, we're not doing much right now; the teacher's just taking attendance so we're all messing around on the internet until she tells us what to do. I think we're going to picking our team's for our Pigskin Geography thingamajig. I really hate Pigskin Geography. It sucks. I have my first soccer practice of my very last year in Optimist Soccer tonight. I bought new soccer shoes yesterday because the one's I bought last year gave me blisters on my toes. I forgot to buy a new soccer ball, though. >.> That's ok; I'll just buy one another time or find my old one at my dad's house this weekend. Ah, and my birthday weekend approaches. Its going to be quite a busy weekend. I've got the party at my dad's on Friday, then I've got the party at the Dority Inn in Alma on Saturday and Sunday, then Sunday is our very first soccer game of the season I believe; its kind of strange if you ask me; I guess they just kind of got a late start with the season this year, but I'm fine with that. Then I've got no school on Monday and I think I have a free schedule that day. I'll try to work on a few things, like, my story and Cliche... I finshed reading Cowboy Bebop #1 last night and started #2. Its quite funny; especially the prison scene in #1, but I wont elaborate any further. =P Hmm... I hope I get the same team I got last year in soccer. You see, my first year in soccer, the way they organized teams was a random drawing. Then, in my second year, some parents got on the board or whatever, and started placing their kids with the best players, so, with this going on, I ended up getting stuck with a team that lost almost every single game we played, for about 5 years in a row. Think about that. I got stuck with the same losing team. 5 years in a row. Yeah, I was friends with just about everyone on my team, but, still, its just not fair to put the same people on the same team 5 years in a row! But last year, last year was different. I got a completely different team, and it was a pretty damn good team, too. The players were all really nice, I didn't know anybody but I made some new friends; my mom was happy because all of the kids were from Beal City so she conversed with the parents with ease, because she's from Beal City, too. My mom was really happy about the players on the team being from Beal City, because she thinks the parents of the kids from Mount Pleasant are all snobby, stuck-up pricks. And they are, too. Same with their kids. But, we won I think, 5 out of our 7 games last year, which is pretty cool. I was really happy about our first game; it was on my birthday and we won 8-0. I also liked my coaches from last year; they were these really nice CMU(Central Michigan University) students who had played soccer in High School; they gave me and another girl some extra practice just to help us with our goalie skills because we both wanted to play goalie, so that was pretty cool. I hope I get a good team this year. I really hope I do; if I don't I'm going to be really pissed off. But, eh, I think I might as well end this. So, later. -DDG

Naruto! Naruto! NARUTO!

*grins* I got everything that I wanted for my birthday. Its so awesome! But, yesterday, I got: Rurouni Kenshin manga volume's 1 and 2, Cowboy Bebop the full box set(three original manga's and two Shooting Star manga's), Pokemon LeafGreen and... *drumroll* NARUTO MANGA VOLUME 1!!!!! YAY! Naruto is awesome! I'm going to have to look for the 2nd volume(it hasn't been in at Sam Goody...) so I can read it! *drools over Kakashi* Hehe... We had a paintball war last night; I didn't participate for too long, not after I found out how friggin' powerful Lonnie and Blaike's guns are; especially Lonnie's! I got shot in the back 3 times, twice in the right upper arm, twice in the neck and once right on my breast! Yeah, that's right. And it hurt like hell, too. I had an ice pack on it the rest of the night. I also would have wore more padding, too, but I didn't have anything else. But, that's alright. I've refused to participate again until winter, though, when I can pad myself right up without dying from heat. And, no, that's not being weak. You'd not want to have a paintball war again either if you're back felt like it got a ton of bricks dropped on it! Pokemon update Almost non-stop playing pays off, you know. And that's what I've been doing with Pokemon FireRed. My team as of today: Pokemon: Growlithe Nickname: Gianni Level: 36 Pokemon: Nidorina Nickname: Nidori Level: 36 Pokemon: Blastoise Nickname: Silvio Level: 37 Pokemon: Pidgeot Nickname: Pippi Level: 37 Pokemon: Pikachu Nickname: Cecilia Level: 37 Pokemon coming soon! Pokemon: Drowzee Nickname: N/A Level: Its in daycare right now, and its at about level 26 or so the last time I checked... I haven't gotten much done in LeafGreen yet. I think I'll play it a bit more...eh, soon. Well, probably not until I beat FireRed, hehe. I'm having a birthday party at my dad's this Friday. Then Saturday and Sunday are my birthday at the Dority Inn in Alma. Then Monday there's no school. Aw, what an awesome weekend for my birthday party! I asked my dad and Josie for both of the Kill Bill movies, so I hope they got them for me. *grin* Er, now, what was I going to say? Oh yeah. Thanks for all of the happy birthday's, guys/gals. ^_^ And, yes, aiomaru, you have the right day this time! lol! I can't wait until this weekend. *jumps up and down excitedly* Ok. I'm done now. I think... yeah. My mind's completely blank... -DDG Oh yeah, and I got 1500 visits! Woo hoo!

I hate to make a post ten minutes before the end of the day school bell rings, but, oh well. I just finished this math thing we had to do. Its called PigSkin Geography, but I don't feel like explaining it right now; I'll just say that it's pretty boring. *yawns* I got my pictures of Snake up in my locker. *grins* My mom gave me a bunch of magnets and I think I used just about all of them up before I couldn't fit anymore pictures in my locker. I think I have a few extra magnets so I might put some in the back of my locker(the one's I have up are on the inside of the door). Xio was all happy today because she got to read Trigun Maximum. ^_^ I had brought it to school yesterday, but she wasn't at school so I had to give them to her today to read. She also gave me my gift today. ^_^ I think I'll like it. Dunno if I'll play it too much. She gave me a few Yu-Gi-Oh cards and a game with old arcade games on it for my GBA. Oh, and last night, I got my present from Lonnie and Blaike early. You know what I got? I bet you don't know! I got a paintball gun! =D I've been wanting one for who know's how long, and I've finally got one. Its pretty nice, too. It came with a repair kit, cleaning brush, mask and tank, so I'm set pretty much. Lonnie also got a paintball gun for his birthday(which is on Thursday) yesterday. His is really nice. I mean, really, really nice. And Blaike's had a paintball gun for awhile, so we plan on going paintballing soon. We want to have like, a war at night. Don't you think that'd be awesome? An all out shoot-out at night... Sorry, gotta go, so, I guess that's all. ^_^ -DDG

Ok, this'll be a quick post. I'm at school, using one of the library computers. Its 11:20 AM so I've got about 8 minutes before I have to head off to Jumpstart. I would update later when I got home, but I'll be busy tonight because my mom's taking me out for a birthday dinner since she has college classes to attend tomorrow. Since I still want to do something tomorrow on my birthday, Lonnie said we might be able to do something. I also finally gave my mom my list of presents that I wanted. All I asked from her was Pokemon LeafGreen and Naruto volume 1 and 2. I also asked for Rurouni Kenshin volumes 1 and 2 and Cowboy Bebop volumes 1 and 2, but they were optionally. I did get Pokemon FireRed yesterday, and I've been having a blast playing it. So far, I've got 5 Pokemon, I've beaten Brock and I'm training to beat Misty right now(she killed my Pikachu and then I was totally screwed because I didn't have anything else that could beat her >.<). But, I've got a Wartortle(Lv. 22), Pidgey(Lv. 17), Pikachu(Lv. 21), Nidorina(Lv. 17), and an Oddish which I just capture before I went to bed(lv. 12). Oh, and I finally thought of something I could do to update this weekend. Since I'll only be at the Inn we're going to in Alma(I forgot the name, its not the Holiday Inn though... >.>) on Saturday and Sunday, I figure, I'll update Saturday morning before we leave, then Sunday afternoon when we come back. Haha! You can't beat me, Shin! I'll find a way to update no matter what! >=P 2 minutes left now...er, what else... I watched Cold Mountain last night. It was pretty good, but really sad. I do suggest it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet. 1 minute now... I cut out a bunch of pictures of Snake from my magazines and brought them to school to hang up in my locker since its completely empty, but unfortunately, I don't have any magnets. I asked my mom if she could get me some and she said she would, so I'll try and hang them up tomorrow I guess. Er, gotta go. I didn't have much else to say anyway, so later. -DDG

   'I didn't have to, but the guy deserved it.'

Nothing much interesting happened today or yesterday. I'd say the coolest thing that happened yesterday was that I found out Snake's real name. I really don't think it fits him, but to avoid revealing it to anyone who doesn't know, I'm not going to say here. If you do want to know though, PM me and I'll tell you. I also read a few things about the Metal Gear stories and connected a few things that hadn't made sense to me earlier, but now I've got almost complete sense over the story of most of the series. I finally finished Trigun Maximum Volume 2 today; it was really good, and I really liked it. Poor Vash though, he's always getting hurt and made fun of.[/pity] I'm actually going shopping today. Josie says we'll go at 4, when we go to pick my dad up from work. I'm hoping that atleast one store will have either a FireRed or LeafGreen in stock; I really want to play the game. I also really want Digimon Rumble Arena 2. I saw it at Sam Goody and was almost drooling over how awesome it looked. Darn you Solo and your teasing! I told Josie and my dad what I wanted from them. They said they'd try to get me it. I asked for Kill Bill Volume's 1 and 2 from them, and I hope they can get them for me. I'd love to own both of the DVD's. I also like to own the soundtracks, too. I think my presents are probably going to be given to me next weekend, seeing as I haven't told my mom what I want from her yet. >.> That's ok though. I'm really just eager to be 13 finally. People keep bothering me about Cliche and I keep telling them to be patient. Its getting quite irritating. I've got as much patience as a hyper-active little kid and I'm being more patient then everyone who's bothering me about it is being. Its getting beyond annoying now. After posting day after day for who knows how long now, I finally see why I never used to post every day before this contest: nothing interesting happens in my life every single day! Its almost impossible for me to think of stuff to talk about. But I will continue on until I can post no more! I have took a blood oath to beat Shinmaru! >:O And I will do it, no matter what the costs! I refuse to fall to him! I absolutely refuse! Oh, wait... damn. I'm screwed. I wont be able to get on the internet next weekend since I'll be at the Holiday Inn for my birthday (supposedly). I dunno. Maybe we can work something out or I can try and find a computer there that I can use or one nearby. Well, Shin, PM me about it and we should try and work something out. I'm watching a rerun of Mythbusters right now, along with talking to Xio and MickeyJ(a good friend of mine), not to mention a friend from another friend of mine's forums(I would tell all of their name's but then it'd be, I dunno, complicated I guess). But, anyway, I think I had better post this now and go find something to do... -DDG
