Roses are red, violets are blue, subs hate me cause I'm a pain in the ass.

Hey everyone! I'm at Andrew's house writing this post now.

I'll be spending the night here because we're leaving for North Carolina at 4am tomorrow. I'll get into that in a second though. First will be about today.

I spent most of the day here as well. We didn't do too much because we've been playing Ocarina of Time pretty much all day. We're still playing it now and we just beat Ganondorf. Now is the battle with Ganon. Well, now for some details on North Carolina.

I'll be leaving today and I'll be gone for a week. If all goes well though, I should still be able to post. My dad gave me the laptop but I'm not sure if I'll get coverage there. If I do, I probably won't be able to make it to anyone's sites though. Sorry about that. If I can't get online though, I'll see you all in a week!

Well, that's about all I can think of for now. I'll add to this if I think of something else. Have a great weekend everyone!

Edit:
Ganon is defeated and Hyrule is safe, for now...

Roses are red, violets are blue, darth vader's spiffy outfit is shiny and made out of black plastic.. like my phone.

Today was a good day. I just sort of woke up, went downstairs for a while, and then ended up going to Andrew's house.

When I got there at 1, we played Super Nintendo until 2 when he had his tutoring thing for math. So during that hour, I just read the first chapter of The Scarlet Letter and I must say, it is definitely more interesting than the intro ^_^ I also went on the computer for a minute but then I put Service Pack 2 on for him from Windows Update and that took forever (though most of it was done by itself).

Later, and then for the majority of the night, we played The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. We just put it in and continued where he left off from a long time ago which happened to be part way through the water temple. I've heard that that is the hardest temple in the game and I'm really going to have to agree. That was a really hard one to beat but we did beat it ^__^ On a side note though, it probably would have been a little easier had it not allready been partly done. When we started playing, we had no idea how far into it we were. It still would have kept its rank of hardest temple though.

Well, that's about it. I have to continue my reading, so I'm sorry but I'll be late getting online tonight to talk to those of you who I usually do. I will be on later though.

Have a great day everyone!

Edit:
Just a quick update. I moved my buttons to the side bar today. Fallen just made me the green one that's up there (thank you Fallen!!!) but I didn't have enough room in my intro to put it up so I moved them there. If you click on any of the buttons that I didn't make in the My Buttons section, you will get to the page of the person who made them. This was the only way I could do it because text links wouldn't look right there.

Roses are red, violets are blue, dodgeball is painful.. Like your face.

CME just wanted it mentioned that the poem is not directed towards any of you, it was just a random way to finish it off. Now with that said, on to my day.

I'm really sorry I didn't make it to all of your sites today. I just sort of ran out of time so I only was able to make it to the sites who updated between midnight and 3am (EST) and a few from today. I should be able to make it today with out a problem though.

Anyway, I spent a lot of time reading today and after about 80 pages, I'm finally about to start the actual story. I read the introduction first, and then we had to read something called "The Custom-House" which was referred to as "The introduction to The Scarlet Letter." So, I'll be starting chapter 1 soon. Pretty sad that there was that much before the actual story part of the book though.

Other than that, I really didn't do anything else today. I'm happy to say that Chris will not be staying here tonight. What's the occasion?

Well, I hope you all have a great day. Sorry again that I didn't make it today. Talk to you all later!

Roses are red, violets are blue, ice buckets are cold.

Hey everyone. Just to clear up a little bit of confusion from yesterday, the Wolf's Rain box that I got yesterday only has volume 1 in it. It is a limited edition set of volume 1, a box to put all the DVDs in when they're released, the Kiba plushie, and the soundtrack. From what the store told me (can't remember the name because I usually get my DVDs at Suncoast but we had store credit somewhere else), they have only realeased volumes 1 and 2 so far. Anyway, now on to my day.

Today was pretty good though pretty uneventful until a little later in the day. I woke up at around 2:30. I'm trying to force myself to get up at 12 but I was just too tired today. Anyway, I came on myO for a while and commented. Then did pretty much nothing for most of the day. After dinner, we went school supply shopping so that's done now. All I have to do now is finish The Scarlet Letter and everything for school is done. So I've been reading for a while tonight too. So yeah, that's pretty much my whole day. Not a bad one, just not terribly exciting.

This part is for those of you who just recently started visiting my site. If you're wondering about the poems I use for my subjects, they are all written by CoLoR Me EviL each day at the end of her comment here. Each one is based on the little story above it so if you were to go back to yesterday's post and read her comment, you'd see the story behind the poem ^_^

Oh yeah, almost forgot. Chris (brother's friend) is sleeping over here again tonight. I swear, it's like he's here more than he's at his own house. I don't have too much of a problem with him because he usually doesn't annoy me but I still think it's sort of weird that he sleeps here more than at home. Ok, well not literally but you see what I mean.

Well, that's all for today. I hope everybody has a great day!

Roses are red, violets are blue, *tazes kiwi* ^__^

I'm trying to get myself back into waking up earlier for school so I woke up at noon today. Hehe, not exactly early but it is earlier than somewhere between 1 and 3 ^_^

Anyway, today was good. I went to the mall to finally return that DVD set with my mom but we could only get store credit from another store because Suncoast wouldn't take it back. So, my mom got three movies for herself and the Wolf's Rain Limited Edition Box of Volume 1 for me ^___^ And yes, it does come with the Kiba stuffed animal! Hehe, it's sitting on top of the box looking at me now.

Then, when we got home, I wrote my essay for the fitness book with some help from my mom. I couldn't figure out how to write the intro so I really needed the help on that. Usually, intros aren't that hard but for a book that didn't have a story, it became a little more difficult.

Oh, as I'm sure you've noticed by now, I finally decided to change my theme. This is a pretty rare ocassion (actually, today was the first time I ever changed it) because now, there are a lot of off-site things that need to be changed too. Anyway, please tell me what you think. Does anything need to be changed? Should it just be brought back to blue? I'm open to any suggestions on it. Thanks in advance!

That's pretty much all I did today but it was a good day. I hope everybody has a great Tuesday! Talk to you later!

Roses are red, violets are blue, I love birthdays and so should you.

Yay for Yoshi's Island (SNES)! Hehe, I played that for a while today. I'll explain in a second.

Ok, so I woke up at 3 pm today. I guess I was a lot more tired than I thought. I turn on my phone to find two new voicemails from Andrew. Needless to say, I ended up going to his house. That is, after I spent a little time on OB.

So, I go over to Andrew's house and we watch Hellsing episodes 4, 5, and 6. I must say, I really like this anime. It's just awesome ^_^ I could only stay till 6 at first though because I had to go home for dinner. I'm Italian so every Sunday, we have pasta and my grandmother's home made sauce (which is really good). My mom said Andrew could come so we went back to my house.

After dinner, Andrew and I headed back to his house. That's when I played Yoshi's Island. I started playing and then got an idea. It's very easy to get 1-UPs in the second level so that's what I did. I just kept going through the second level until I had 99 lives. It only took about a half hour. It was fun though and Andrew was playing Battlefield 1942 at the time anyway.

When I got home, I found out that yet again, Chris is spending the night. Chris is my brother's friend for those of you who don't remember or just didn't know to begin with. Anyway, it seems that he spends more time at my house than he does at his own. So far though, I haven't been bothered.

Now to everyone I talk to online usually (mainly Evil, Fallen, and Shanny), I will be pretty late tonight becasue I have to start reading The Scarlet Letter. Sorry. The good news though is that I basically finished the fitness book (well, I just decided not to read the rest because there's no need to to finish the project) so now, all that's left is to write the essay which will be done today. I just now have to finish The Scarlet Letter by Friday. Shouldn't be too hard though.

Well, that's it for today. I hope you all had a great day! Talk to you later!

P.S. Lie74, I'm really sorry I couldn't help you today. As you can see, I wasn't home for most of the day. I promise I will help you the first chance I get.

Edit:
After reading onewingedangel's post, I realized that I've been meaning to do this for a while. I'm clearing out people on my friends list that either don't update or don't comment here. If I take you off and I shouldn't have, just leave me a comment or a PM and I'll re-add you if you actually do update/comment.

Roses are red, violets are blue, can't trust some boys with matches, cause they'll light your whole bloody house on fire.

Hey everyone. Today was pretty good. And last night was good too. My brother and his friend didn't bother me too much ^_^

I woke up today and Chris (my brother's friend) was still here. I just came on myO for a while and commented. Later, I went downstairs for lunch. I also ended up playing a round of the video game they were playing (I won ^_^). The, back upstairs to finish commenting.

I saw The Manchurian Candidate today. Red, I'll have to agree partially with you on this one. Though I didn't hate it, it wasn't one of my favorites either. It was just a little too "out there" although I still thought it was a pretty good movie and it did keep me interested. Just not exactly my taste. Over all though, I thought it was pretty good. My parents loved it though.

Oh by the way, I just made it to 800 visits tonight! Yay! Thank you all so much for coming to my site!

That was pretty much it for today. I was actually able to make it online early tonight! Yay!

Anyway, have a great Sunday everyone! Talk to you later!

Roses are red, violets are blue, grade sevens are violent, but sometimes it's cause I provoke them.

Today was pretty good. I'd like to start this post with this though:

This was made for me by SesshTaisho yesterday. Thank you for it! I really like it ^_^

Now, on to my day. I really didn't do to much. I woke up and after a while, I went online and talked on AIM and visited peoples' sites. I got an IM from Andrew and ended up going to his house. We just sort of watched TV and played Super Mario Bros. 3 (well, he played it, I just watched him/watched TV). He beat it by the way ^_^

Anyway, that was pretty much it. My brother's friend is sleeping over again. Last time, it went well because I wasn't bothered. I just hope it remains that way (though I don't see why it shouldn't). Oh by the way, in case anyone was wondering, my brother is younger than me. He just turned 12 at the end of July.

Have a great weekend everybody!

Roses are red, violets are blue, puke is green.

Yay! I got the stuff I couldn't get yesterday!

I woke up today and just sort of waited for my mom to get back. When she did, we went back to the mall to pick up the stuff that I was supposed to get yesterday but didn't. Yay for .hack//Legend of the Twilight vol. 2 (DVD), Kill Bill 2, and Halo 2! Hehe, everything is a 2 ^__^ Halo 2 is a Christmas present though so I won't get it till Christmas. No big deal though because we can't pick it up until like November 19 anyway.

Then, I came home and did the math thing I had to do for school. I can't believe they gave us that and books to read. Come to think of it, I can't believe they give us anything at all. But I'm more or less used to it now because I've had to do this for years. The math is done and the first book only has a chapter left so at least I'm getting somewhere.

Later, I went to Andrew's house and then Jesse came too. We just sort of hung out in Andrew's room and played Super Mario Bros 3. I love that game ^_^

Well, that was my day. Overall, it was good. I hope everyone has a great day!

Roses are red, violets are blue, make funny faces and people WILL stare at you.

Let's see, today I really did nothing.

I woke up to nobody home again but I know why this time. My mom goes into school to get ready and my brother goes to a baseball camp during the day.

Anyway, I was supposed to go to Andrew's house but I had to eat lunch first. Then, I read more in my book because I need to get that done. Later, I ended up going to the mall to pick up a .hack//Legend of the Twilight Volume 2 (DVD) and Kill Bill 2 because my mom was returning a box set of Six Feet Under Season 1. She got it as a birthday present but didn't need it because our neighbor taped all of season 1 for her while we were on vacation last year. Unfortunatlly, Suncoast got a new manager and they don't let you exchange without a receipt (which we didn't have with us at the time) so I didn't get it tonight. We're going back tomorrow though. I'll also be reserving (and paying in full) for the collectos' edition of Halo 2. Well actually, it will be a Christmas present for me from my parents.

Anyway, I came home, went on myOtaku and then just watched TV for a while. Now I'm online.

Exciting? Not really. But it was a pretty good day anyway. Have a great day everyone!
