Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!

[Winters Rage]

Hi!
Who's NG? *Shot*
That chat mode is very handy
Anyways, I got up at an (almost) record time this morning! 7:30am! *Shot* Ok, so I should get up earlier normally but... I like the night so much.... some of my best drawings and stories come from it.. *marries night* *shot*
I'm sure getting shot alot today
Anywho, I've been doodling as of recently, trying to increase my art skill and whatnot~ I think I'm level... 3 now! *shot*
I finally got the girls to let me use their colored pencils... the girls that live here, not my sisters, so I gotta be careful with these...
Oh, today is a sad day... The kittens have to leave soon... like... tomorrow.. I love my babies T.T Also, we were discussing what would happen to my kitty, Loki, after we left and we decided to have him put down... cause... he's just gonna have a horrible life here without me... I see the way the other people treat him and I know he wont get fed, atleast, not as much... so... he/we only has/have 5 days left... *sad* And the worst part is, Loki is just sleeping all day and night usually... he doesn't even know that he has only a few days left....

[PoisonWing14]

Wahh...That's so sad Winter. I feel so sorry for you both...I've only had two pets pass away during my life. Even though they were just a pair of toads, and they died of old age, I still was quite sad. Since I've never had any pets put down, I guess I don't really know what it's quite like.
Hmmm, Actually I've had four pets die during my life. the two others were a pair of Hermit crabs, and I kinda blame myself for their deaths...I was gone at a summer camp for four days and I forgot to tell my parents to feed them and give them fresh water....I still do have their shells though, so I'm not as sad as I would be.
I don't think I could be as sane as I am without my 2 cats. Man, I'm not really that good with talking about sad stuff like this. Sorry I can't really give that much empathy, but thinking about this makes me think if either of my cats had to be put down. I don't really think I could handle it.
Well, I wish you two luck with coping with this. I don't know If I could.

Hey!

I just noticed that there were 92 members on on Jul 06. Why don't I remember this? Does any one else remember what was going on?

[Winters Rage]

Hey!

Me neither! I was on and posting too!
I'm on rs right now, btw Marley.

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

Whoa... how did that happen? I mean... even if you add in bots and guests it's like... wha?

Anywho, softball yesterday, I slid poorly and now I have a huge scrape on my knee, and it hurts to walk. Kinda killed my plan of going jogging today...

I HATE AP PHYSICS B HOMEWORK. The section wasn't bad... then we got to the problems for the section and it's like WTF?! YOU NEVER TAUGHT US ANY OF THIS!! Then it was like "go online to learn how to do this problem" so I did, and then it was like "pay $100 to use the online e-book!" and I was like "WTF"

Wheeeeeeeeeee

[PoikSpirit]

Haha, that's actually what my Foundations of Physics second semester in college was like, so don't worry, physics teachers suck everywhere... Actually, we had a really good AP Physics teacher at my high school, and I, of course, got the other one...

Yeah, I've been doodling a bit as well, Winters Gamer. Like my Avvy right now. Rarely make anything I particularly want to share with anyone, but it is fun. Considering I've done basically nothing artistic since art class fifth grade, I'm glad that I can draw things recognizable at this point.
Sorry to hear about your cat. Just think of how much better Loki's life was with you in it. Besides, knowing he was going to die soon probably wouldn't faze him, animals know how they want to live, and that is not worrying about (yet still avoiding) death. It's a lesson most of us could learn.

sina mute o a! pana mi e sona pi Toki Pona! tenpo kama lili la mi wile pana mi e sona pi toki Nijon. Translation: "Hey y'all! I'm learning Toki Pona! I want to learn Japanese soon after." Well, that translation's not literal, but that's because Toki Pona simplifies things down a lot. It was a psychological experiment in simplifying a language down to only what is necessary, and it only has 118-120 words. So I'll be going from a language that is designed for utmost ease to one that has two alphabets and kanji... Wish me luck!

Hi! My brother has been visiting for the past couple days but now he's off with my mom to check out some chiropractic schools and I've got to get back to writing (current' progress, 5 2/3 chapters complete out of 14, though that five had the three longest chapters in it).

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

So, I was in the town paper along with all the other people that went on the South Dakota mision trip with me, so I was reading the paper (which I usually don't do) and I saw my friend's last name, so I looked at a small article. Turned out, it wasn't my friend, just a coincidence. However, this kid, 12 years old, goes to a middle school in my town, won a national Yu-Gi-Oh compeition in Minneapolis and won a free trip to Japan.... wow.

My stupid knee hurts so bad... scraped it the worst I've ever scraped it in softball a few days ago, and it STILL hurts. Ugh.

Headed off to Lake Winnipesaukee (I actually spelled it right, yay!) tomorrow for a week at camp. Schweeet.

[BionicleMandi121]

Konbanwa.

We took a super long bus ride (upward of 1.5 hours) to get to Jinshan province today from Shanghai's Pudong province. To help pass the time, the Chinese students taught us foreign students how to sing a Chinese song. I only know the first verse well; all the others I only know certain sections of. It was fun, though. XD

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

So, I'm not sure how many of you remember me mentioning this, but I too the AP English Language and Composition exam, even though I didn't take the AP English Language and Comp class (Only AP English Lit and Comp is offered at our school), so I did most of the studying on my own time with a few practicies with my teacher before and after school.

Got the results back today.

I GOT A 5/5 OH MY GOD IT WAS SO, SO EXCITING I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!! I didn't think I had a chance at a 5! I definitely thought the best I could get was a 4, and I was kind of even expecting a 3... but then I opened it and it was like 5 and I read it like 10 times because I was like "No. Way." and then I jumped up and down and screamed and everyone was like "Uhm, are you okay?" and I was like "I GOT A 5 ON MY AP EXAM!" and Tango was like "Is that good?" but I kinda ignured her and just went on jumping and screaming :D

Aaaaaaaaaaah I can't believe it so excited :D

[Winters Rage]

That's cool Saber :D Nice job ^^

Something.... interesting (but normal-ish for here) happened last night...
The following event is a true story that I have gathered from bits and pieces of information from the events that happened as they happened:
The family that lives here has a dog and I admit, I didn't like him that much but I don't hate him. Well, he loved to ride in the truck whenever we (or the other family, who also has a truck) would leave unless we locked him inside the gate. Well, after him getting out of the gate 3 times due to it not getting closed well and him chasing after the car right before we got to the highway we brought him back and someone left the gate open. Again. My dad had come back because he forgot something, grabbed it and drove off. At that time we still though the dog was in the house. But we looked for him and saw the gate wide open and the dog no where. 10 minutes later a phone call from one of the kids in the car with my dad. The dog was hit by a car. Of course my dad had no knowledge of this but the whole family in the house was sad. Well, except for me, but that's because I'm just unable to be really emotional at times like that and I was kinda skeptical about him being dead, I guess I was just trying to convince myself he wasn't dead. So the girl whose dog was hers was crying in her room and when my dad came home he was just all happy and oblivious. We were all sitting at the table at the time and just stared at him. "What's wrong?" he said. "The dog got ran over." My mom told him. She said she was holding him responsible for not closing the gate. He really had nothing to say but defend himself for leaving the gate opened. Well. 30 minutes or so later, another phone call. The dog, was in fact, no dead. Our translator said she though she saw him in the back of another mans car. I later heard that she had stopped him and asked where she got the dog, he said it was his. She told him it was ours and he just floored it. She apparently followed him to see where he lived and she told us that she saw him tie the dog up. The story changed again. The dog was stolen. Well, early this morning the whole family (minus me, I was asleep) stormed in pretty much and he said he sold the dog. The dog was gone. He told them what the car looked like and, by the grace of God, on the way home they saw the truck. With the dog. They followed him again and saw where he put him. Then he left again, my dad said he told the woman that the dog was ours and she said "If it's really your dog, go ahead and take him." Truly God had helped us. The dog is now here, safe inside and we plan on buying a collar.

So that's what happened, crazy isn't it?
Oh... the kittens... have to leave now... T.T they just took the black one away... the one with the sara symbol on him stomach (RS ref)... He was cute... All black with while toes and whiskers... Golden eyes and a white star on his tummy... gone for good... I still have the orange one (favorite) and the white one (fatty)... But they're leaving later too... T.T

I got my ACT scores back! I got a 28 on the English (which I spelled wrong the first time), a 32 on the Math and reading, and a 34 on the Science. My Composite score was 32, and It says that I did better than 99% of the people in my State and in the country. I kinda wish I did better on the English, and when I took the practice one i got 35s on Math and Science, but still overall pretty good scores.

[Metalheadz]

Congratulations Saber!! :D

I don't have any AP's until next year. I'm guessing you're a rising Junior?

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

That's very fortunate, Winters, glad to hear everything worked out for you.

Nice ACT scores, Marley!

Thanks, Metalheadz! I am going to be a junior this fall, if that's what you mean. I've got 3 APs worth of summer homework, kind of killing my summer, but, yeah... whoooo...

And, done packing for camp tomorrow. I hope I have everything... if not, I shall be one sad little kiddo. God, I can't help but worry it's not going to be fun... I know me, I know I stress out, and I know that a week away from my homework, oddly enough, will kill me, since I'll just be stressing about how I should be working on it. I've forgotten how to relax, honestly. If I'm not doing anything, I freak out that I should be. I don't sleep as much as I used to because I feel like it's a waste of time... probably bad for my health in the long run...

Uhm, but, yeah, still kinda can't believe I actually managed a 5 on the AP exam... especially since I didn't expect the results to come for another week...

*Lumbers in in hospital gown thing*

Hey, could you guys tell me what this thing on my chart means? Inf-oru-mco-ma? It's in really badhandwriting, so.... Oh, it says "In forum coma!" Wait, what? So, I'm back. I should work to stay on this time. Anyway, on to talking.... Mother 3 is awesome! It's the sequel to Earthbound, it was only released in Japan, so I used the fan translation patch. Awesome game, though. Oh, also, go FFXIII.

BTW, I have to do general math and PSAT during the entire Summer.

P.S. 15 next month. Go B-Day!
