Being Crafty Today

I acomplished my goal of going to the flea market with my dad. Sadly, and yet not surprising, we didn't find what we wanted. There's nothing but junk at flea markets it seems, and they sell all the same stuff. It's like the gift shops in New York.

I also made these!



And I made Fried Oreos...I didn't take a pic. They were really easy to make, but it took time to make them, what with doing them one at a time and all.

So...My goal for tomorrow will be to..........

Read Persepolis and my Batman comics that I bought

Where to go from here...

I'm at this point in my blog where I'm starting to become sluggish. I haven't written anything, and I would love to continue this blog even though class is over. I could continue with what I'm doing, but I could also write about other things too. If anyone would like to hear or see certian things then please let me know.

What I've decided to do for the rest of the summer, is to write about goals I've made and if i've acomplished them or not (so basically it's a diary). I'll also write about things that I'm doing over my break and any kind of media I get into.

I know that's not very exciting, but then I don't think any one life is particularly exciting. I think it's how other percieve it and how you depict it that makes it exciting. Living it is a whole different story.

So what is my goal for tomorrow?

My goal for tomorrow is:
To go to the flea market with my dad!

(crickets cherp)

I know it's not fun and exciting, but we both have hopes in mind to find certian things at the flea market. My dad is looking for railroad engineer hats to replace the damaged ones he owns, and I'm looking for an old beat up piece of furniture that I can fix up.

I didn't want to make these goals becasue really they're more like ambitions that may not be fulfilled. Goals are ment to be fulfilled. Shit, that's why they are goals.
They'll be the icing on the cake.


So heres to fulfilling the goal and getting the icing on the cake.

Final Blog Posting for Cyberwriting class- Random Shit Comin' Your Way

Since this is the final blog post for the class, I would like to go out with a BANG. Sadly, I'm not very creative and have a presentation to finish. :P

I could talk about Heroman, an anime I discovered a couple months ago, but I don't think people in the class are into anime. But then who doesn't love a middle schooler and his giant robot saving the world from aliens and cameo's from Stan Lee drinking coffee?















I could talk about how people on the internet are crazy.
I thought I was weird, what with my three alter-ego's running around and all. But I have been proven to be sane whenever I am on the internet.

Whenever I look for something about an interest I have, there's always that one nutball in the courner who has to create something dirty, dark and twisted for everyone to look at. I refuse to post photo's of what I mean, I WILL NOT SPREAD THE DISEASE! You all know what I'm talking about!


Or maybe I'll just fill up this post with random images so I don't have to write so much.
HA!
See how many you know.







Thanks for a great class guys and gals. Good luck to you all in your future endevors, and remember...

I never played videogames, but when I did it was always with my cousins. I loved watching them play videogames and the time we spent with each other playing with them. As a tribute, these are the video games I remember from my youth (whether I played them or not).

Barbie
Nintendo Game System






Zelda
Nintendo Game System






Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt
Nintendo Game System









Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Nintendo Game System





Battle Arena Toshinden
Playstation

I loved this f**ing game! I don't know why, I just did. I always played this with my cousins and always had a fun time playing it. But holy crap have the graphics changed!








Round One, FIGHT!


Hahahahahahaha!

I Never Give up!

Spice Girls
Playstation

Remember the Spice Girls? Thanks to Yu-Gi-Oh! the Abrigged Series, I remembered they had a videogame.

and lollypops!



Castlevania:Symphony of the Night
Playstaton

The only thing I truly remember about this game was the beginning.



If there are any videogames that you remember from your youth, please feel free to submit.

Fixing Greeting Cards When Nobody's Looking (I hope)

Is it psychotic that I fix the greeting cards when they're out of order on the card rack?


Possibly, but then I wouldn't be me, would I.


I was with my mom in Target today looking for a Father's Day card, while my mom was looking for birthday cards. I got done early and had to wait for my mom, so I ended up fixing the cards that people were too lazy to put back. Yes, it is most certainly laziness. My mom gave the excuse that probably everyone gives...I couldn't find where it went. Sorry, that doesn't cut it with me.
 
It takes probably one minute at the most to locate where you got your card, faster if you paid attention to the section you got it from.  By identifying specific characteristics that the top of the card has and taking some extra time, you too can place greeting cards back into their original places.

I don't know why this bothers me so much. I could be OCD, but I'm not sure. 


I need a drink...gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp. Ahhh.

  I actually do this with books sometimes too, usually if they're on tables, or misrepresented on shelves. In Barnes and Noble, they have those summer reading tables and people don't put the books back in their proper places, or they're upsidedown or are turned over or are...diagonal!  Comic books too. They're just all messy and I start to put titles together and straighten them up (as best as you can fix a comic book on a magazine rack.)

I guess it's a peeve I have...or a secret problem.

I do this with other things too: jewelry racks, things that hang on a hanger like clothes or hair accessories or makeup. Anything that can be sorted, I sort it.

Ok, ok. I don't stand there all day doing this. I usually find myself organizing if I'm board and waiting for people to get done shopping, or if I just happen to be in that area looking for something . I'm not crawling around trying to find shelves and things to fix, I don't stand there for hours making everything perfect. When I notice it, I fix it.  I pick up fallen clothes on hangers and place them back, I re-fold clothes if I happen to be putting somehting back and the shirt nearby is messy, I put cards back in their propper places.

I also don't automatically believe that it is the job of the Target clerks to clean up after my messes. I get this tinge of guilt when i leave something where I shouldn't. F**k it, I will bring that Billy Blanks Tae Bo DVD back to the Health section of Target because I know it's the right thing to do and I leave that mother f**ing Target with a clear conscious Straight up.
