   Kratos is ma homeboy.
And Teh Smma commanded: Haircuts for all!

The plan was to go to the Hairy Tarantula, but we ended up going to a couple of other comic stores and a fantasy/sci-fi/horror bookstore. Huzzah. I got a Tom Holt book. It looks amusing... 'Management buy-out of Hell not going as planned...' Ehehe.

My dad found a "THIS is what a FEMINIST look like" pin on the ground and he wore it, eheh. He also found ten bucks. :O
We then had a conversation; could someone who wasn't a feminist look like a feminist?

Sam the Record Man is the ONLY music store.

   Straaangers in the Niiiight
Hi ho. Parties are stupid.

Went to one yesterday instead of going to another 2 hour hockey practise. Damn. Also-- wore a skirt! BLASPHEMY!

Anyways, this party. Apparently Harry Rosen was there. o.o
It was it this beautiful little spot by a stream. They fit 160 people into one two-story house. It was evil. Too many people= no air. Also, it's harder to find the person with the tray with the california rolls on it.

It also makes it harder to find a quiet spot to cultivate Operation: Kidnap Pretty Caterer Guy who plays Pretty Classical Guitar who might be from New Zealand. Unfortunately, this operation was not a success, as I forgot my rope and Stealth Gear at home. But hey, who needs stealth gear? Stealth is for those who can't run in with a giant weapon in each hand, screamin' bloody murder and hacking up everybody. (In other words, stealth ain't for me.)

My dad was in the band, that was cool. Same with my drum teacher. Oooh, Oooh! I just saw his band's video today... They're called the Golden Dogs...Argh what was the name of their single?! I'll get back to you on that.

Heh, it was all rainy and wet, and everyone in their pretty fancy shoes were like; "ARGH THE MUD! AAAARGH!" People kept staring at my one-pink-one-black-shoes. 'Twas funny.

Brother brought Munchkin...by the end of the night the kids were like, "I'm a lvl. 8 elf/warrior with the Boots of Butt-Kicking and the Sneaky Bastard Sword! I beat the Gazebo!" It was funny. I suck at pool.

Deep. Fried. Pants.

   GodDAMN the Pusha-man!
Oh man, Tales of symphonia ROCKS. I wish I had a Human Ranch... Oh, things I could do with one of those.

I think I need to keep vials of my own blood laying around, just incase I die in some tragic accident that totally destroys my entire body. That way, people can use it to clone me, so the world will never have to suffer the tragedy of being without a Samm.

Hooray for 2 hour hockey practises,

   And now, let us bask in the awesomeness that is Kratos.
As you could probably guess from my last post, I've recently been considering 'Supervillain' as a career option. [Either that or pirate.] Anyways, one tends to have role-models that influence them to choose certain paths in life. I was wondering, who're you're favourite villains? Some of mine have got to be (in no particular order, mind you);

Cinnamon J. Scudworth from Clone High.
"For what could be more powerful that a high school principal?! Do ho ho ho!!"
He's insane, evil, and he has a freakin' death maze. Oh, and a robot butler named Mr. Butlertron. He fills my requirements.

Jose from CyberSix.
"Soon, Father...Soon you'll see what a genius I am..."
He's a midget kid with a bad haircut and a lust for power. He's also got a funky tango-esque theme. Awright!! He's so much cooler than his dad...

Gannondorf from Legend of Zelda games
(Manical Laugh)
Triforce of Power! Yesssss!!! Hooray for the weird green King of the Gerudos! I don't know why I think he's cool, but Ganny is. Everyone knows that. Too bad he 'changed his evil ways' XD. Don't tell me you haven't seen that flash animation.

Fawful from Superstar Saga.
"I have fury!!
He's just the mustard of your doom, man. The mustard of your doom.

Those are all I can think of right now, but I know that there're about a zillion others who are just as cool, if not cooler. Do remind me of them, won't you?

Keep on obliterating small villages,

13mm Clockwork Giant Pandas
I've decided that I'm going to turn my swimming pool into a giant bowl of noodles. My brother asked me how I would heat the pool to boiling temperature, and I've decided the only way was to completely destroy the Earth's atmosphere.

Basically, I need a machiene do help me do this, and if any of you guys have a spare one, I'd like to maybe borrow it. If you give one to me, I'll give you a heat-resistant suit so you'll survive the impending apocalypse that comes with a planet with no oxygen.

In other newss; Tales of Symphonia is cool. A refreshing change from turn-based RPGs. Except, for the first half and hour I had Lloyd on Auto and I was like; "Dude, what kind of a SHIT game fights for you? ...At least I'm not losing. Ehehe." Cute animation. Weird Titles. Abusive school teachers.
Can't wait to beat/die in it.

Also, Streetlight Manifesto pwns j00.

I can count to purple backwards!
NYC is so awesome. Those shirts do not lie. Let us see if I can remember any of my trip.

Landed in NJ around 8, terrible, horrible, hideous traffic getting into New York. In the lane opposite us, there was a stalled car which other cars kept smashing into. That was all the entertainment we got for about an hour. Then I realised I had books. Gah. Upon taking 'em out, we started moving, because that's how life works.

There was a 20 foot inflatable rat in front of our hotel. I think it had herpes. The hotel was under construction and the n00b at the front desk lost our reservation or something. I'm not really sure, but we did get a room. Upon entering, I broke a drawer. (I also got blood on their sheets. I don't know how this happened. Sewiouswy.)

I'm not exactly sure whereabouts we went first. I know in the basically three days we were there we walked for approx. 25 hours. We only took one cab the whole time. Letsee...we went through the Village, Midtown, Uptown, Chinatown, Little Italy, Soho, and I'm not sure where else.

I'm vaguely aware that Day 1 was Comic Store Day and Day 2 was Obscure Music Store Day. We hit the big comic stores and at Jim Hanely's Universe I got Gunslinger Girl 1 and Gravitation 7. OMGOMGOMG!!!111one YUKI YUKI YUKI YUKI'S PAST SPOILER SPOI-

Disgruntled Fan Girl Samm has been apprehended. She shall be executed at dawn.

Um. Heh. A nice guy there directed me to a really cool anime store, which had that big thing the Power Rangers turn into in the front window. [Man, Power Rangers..."What now? LAZERS!!!"] They also sold Mario Boxers. Give me three good reasons why I didn't buy those boxers. I didn't even know Nintendo had official boxers. Oh, and at Forbidden Planet I bought Tales of Symphonia from some guy watching Invader Zim. I'd be playing it right now, if I wasn't supposed to be at Damn Math Crap Thing. Oh, talkin' about Invader Zim. I shoulda bought JTHM Director's Cut. Seeing as I know nothing about Jhonen Vasquez. Like how to spell his damn name.
Comic Stores? Fun.

We also stopped at health food store 'cause I was DAMN THIRSTY. The weather was so humid! I hate humidity, heat and the like. There were these boxes of tea lined up; Monkey King, Water Sprite, Heavenly Temple and Earl Grey. Saiyuki!!!!

I had the Best. Lunch. Ever. on saturday; the gnocci to rule over all gnocci. I'm drooling on my keyboard just thinking about it.

I have the stupidest background on my computer. It's as close to Yaoi as I can get. Also, my brother is a dunce for doing such an elaborate sabotage of My Otaku. "Now I have to take a stand and 1) Hit him, 2) Scold him, 3) Kill him." Hmm... Tough choice...

My brother typed the above paragraph. And my wallpaper is not yaoi 'tall. Sadly. This window has been open for, like, the last 12 hours. I've had so much to do today... First hockey practise of the year (Sweet! Yes! Felt sooooo good!), Math Crap, going to see Collateral with Godel and getting verbally attacked by a guy at a gamin' store: "Hey guys do you want to play WarHammer do you play Warcraft what character classes are your Dungeons and Dragons characters roll a d6 to attack wanna seemy Bilbo Miniature this guy likes signing tables!!!!!!"

Anytheways, back to Yew Nork. Music stores! We went into a bunch and noone had ever heard of Streetlight Manifesto! Some guy told us to go to a reggae store run by a couple of stoners. That was an experience. I finally got the CD though. After giving up, of course. Found it at a small HMV. What the crap? 's pretty good. You can hear the Catch 22ness...I think...what with the 'na na na's. Such depressing ska. Seems to be about shooting peoples and suicide and whatnot. Funneh.

I also got two pairs of shoes and a book for five bucks. And a pair of PINK PANTS for ten. Like, oh my gosh. (Did Fangirl Samm escape? Is she immune to sedatives? If you see her, shoot/stab/set her on fire. For the love of all that is sacred.)

I beereeve that's all I have to say about that.

Going to NY with my mom is awesome!

   'Tis a pirates life for me.
Saw Signs yesterday, 'twas rather good. Personally, I liked The Village a bit more. It might've been because when I saw it it was in a dark theatre at night, but it did seem to have more impact on me than Signs did.

One thing's for sure, Joaquin Phoenix is really, really cool.

It was rather amusing... Right after I saw Signs I was sitting in my room and I hear this static with an underlay of low, mumbling voices. That was pretty freaky. It turns out my dad had a two-way radio going in the next room 'cause he got hired to stalk Benny Hinn or something like that.

Oooh, and they were playing Monty Python's The Meaning Of Liff of TV after that! I swear, British humour is the only humour.

Any the ways, I'm going down to NYC tomorrow morning (5:00 a.m!), return date monday. Yes!!!!

Keep on groovin'

   Link is the awesomest guy in a miniskirt and tights EVER.
Yay. Edition I & II of Manga Coming in the Mail for Sammiechan have been completed. (Can't wait for Edition III!) Let us see what she has received.

Angel Sanctuary 1
Uh. I thought the title was kind of pussy, but there was a healthy amount of heads A Sploding and people gettin' sliced up into little bits. Not that I'm so shallow that the only aspect of manga I enjoy is the gratuitous violence. Nope. Not me.
I'm defnilly not religious, but I've found I have this weird facination for celestials and demons and the like. I also enjoy the questioning of good and evil that goes on. It's pretty amusing. So book one is kinda cool. I'm just trying to figure out what gender everyone is. O_o"

Saiyuki 1
There're some cheesy catch phrases, but then there are people turning into spiders. Wouldn't it be so cool if you could turn into a spider and then go around eating people? Pansy though he may be, Hakkai is cool. Very cool.And Gojyo's weapon is cool. Anything that decapitates...Nice. 's a pretty fun story.

Gravitation 6
Yaaaay! The beginning is kind of bizarre, and then the story gets a bit deeper near the end. *does a dance* Yay Gravi!

If, for some unknown reason, the above seemed Spoilerful, here is an array of pointy metal objects. Do your worst.

Can I get everybody to sing the song of storms? I want it to rain again so I won't have to run tonight. Heh, last night we just threw frisbees at eachother in the rain and played 'soccer' while screaming "PIGEON!!!"

'Cause, ya know, there was a dead pigeon.

   It's fun to make little sculptures out of erasers and nail polish and 'white-out'.
Samm! Put on sunscreen! No way, man! I'm too cool for that shit!

I'm such an ass.

Anyways, I am now entirely certain that man was not meant to waterskii. What a painful ordeal. Maybe I'm just bitter because I wasn't able to do it in 11 tries, or maybe I don't like water entering my skull at a high velocity, but damn, that is one INASNE water sport.

'twas also my first time tubing. At least I could do that.

The best part has gotta be hitting the water.

L35533, what else did I do at Friend's Cottage for the first time... Ooh. I've never jammed before. That was cool. They had three gee-tars, a violin, and a really aweXome synth. We played a crapload of Beatles songs. I didn't even know that I could play the guitar, man. It was soooo coool.

You know that Tired when you're past the "Dead Tired I Can't Move Fuhhhh" stage? The "Druggedupletsgoscarificeagoathyperhyper" Tired?

Well, it was, like, three in the morning. (We knew 'cause of Pokemon Silver. w00t.) I put a sleeping bag cover on my head and start singing the LoZ theme. Then Kunai does the same and Godel is like: "Go stand over there in heroic poses and I'll take pictures!!" So we put on wet towels for tunics and we found some 'Hylian Sheilds' and 'Master Swords', (tupperware and brooms) and one of us pretends to be Zelda and the other Ganny, and Ganny attacks Zelda with a bed and Blue Link and Dark Link have to save her and it was really weird.

We also played a crapload of Munchkin and learned some weird things from Trivial Pursuit. Turns out I have a lot of useless (trivial, if you will) knowledge. ^_____^

e.g 'What does a peacock mate with?' Oh, and rats can't vomit.

Canoeing was a bit of an ordeal. A hilarious ordeal.

"I can stern!" *Does 10 circles in a row. After a Sterning 101 and about an hour, we make it across a very, very small lake.

Once we got there, we sat on a rock and talked about Gravi for an hour.

Canoeing on the way back:

"I can't stern!"
After another 10 full circles and Godel realising that J strokes are for pussies, we zoomed back at Ludacris Speed.

After many a reminicing Sing-a-Long, we were back home. Hurrah for old Kiddie Shows. They really make the time fly, don't they.

It took me a whole box of strawberry pocky to write this post.

Awwwww froodles.
Bro just came home from work as a camp conselor. Ahahah.

'pparently some other kid who worked there decided that it was okay to routinely insult every child and staff member present at the camp, since it was his last day. Man, I wish I was there to see that.

Sounds like that time last year a conselor decided to write "LOSER" on the forehead of the most annoying kid at the camp and chuck him the pool.

I wonder if he knew the kid was the son of the owner of the camp.

Anyways, going to a friendses cottage. I shall return on monday.

Ta Ta,

(Oh, I forgot the Weapons Silo and the Human Chessboard in my Dream House. ^^)
