Tom Delonge. My idol. Even though I do not play the guitar and the only instruments I have in my house is a acoustic guitar with a broken string, an unassembled drum set, and a harmonica (maybe those cheap, plastic flutes from elementary school could be classifed as an instrument), this man is a great man. Even though many people hate him and say he sucks at the guitar, well, they're crazy. But not everybody met Blink-182 in person like I did (although I didn't get to interview them like my cousin and friend did) and have their autograph -- and sat backstage during the show. Blink-182 was broken up for a while now though. From what I heard, Mark Hoppus wanted to go emo and Tom was getting political and didn't want to get into that emo shit, so therefore the punk rock band broke up. Mark and Travis Barker went into their own band (oh damn, I forgot the name) and Tom went into his own, which is Angels and Airwaves.
My cousin (the one who interviewed Blink) on the bus last week let me listen to a burnt CD he must've made with an Angels and Airwaves song on there, called "The Adventure". He thought the song was amazing and it made me tear a bit hearing a fresh song with Tom's voice in it besides listening to my old Blink-182 songs to hear him at all. It sort of reminded me of Boxcar Racer a bit, an old side-project from Blink-182 that had Travis and Tom in it. Travis is being passed around from the two like a can of beer. Anyway, just the other day I had a debate with myself to download Limewire and iTunes to my laptop. I was afraid to because of the little hard drive space I have on this thing and the RAM is horrible at times where the computer will just move little by little for minutes. I need to upgrade badly already. Well, I downloaded the both of them anyway. And with downloading them, I downloaded "The Adventure" and I'm listening to it right now on loop. I need to memorize the lyrics.
What a week so far! Three tests/quizzes tomorrow, test Friday, a speech that I should've done today (but I'll get back to you on that), and a large amount of writing assignments. Actually only one writing assignment. About the speech though. Well, we walked into the libaray where we normally have our speech class when the substitute teacher there for the libarian told us, after two minutes of sitting there at the table, to go to the audatorium. So we venture over there and find our speech teacher there, in her wonderful mood as always. Let me back up a second. This was a demonstration speech we had to do (as in a process showing how to do something, also called a "How-To" speech) and I was doing a speech on how to prepare a fishing pole and line to fish. So I brought a small, jigging fishing pole to school with bait, hook, sinker, and bobber. Just wanted to add that in there because I'll forget later on. Well, turns out that the teacher wanted everybody who had a recipie to go first so that the food won't spoil and if they ran out of time that day that they wouldn't have to carry the food around with them all day or remake/rebake them. And is a fishing pole a recipe? No. Turns out more than half of the class did a recipe so time ran out, bell rang, and now my speech is due for Thursday.
This is good though because I have more time to practice my speech now. I've been having a hard time on the third step for tying a trilean knot for the hook on because you have to wrap the line that you just pulled out of the eye of the hook to create the loop around the "main" line three to five times. Well, I can't wrap shit around anything. Plus it's hard because I'm horrible at handling line because I'm always dropping what I'm working on for some odd reason. And I only had two days to practice a bit prior to today. Did I practice today? Only tying the hook on, and without vocals. Tomorrow I'll throw some practice in there in front of others. Sunday and yesterday I practiced twice doing my speech on the Blog Explosion chat room. And yesterday I also practiced once with my father, mother, and grandmother being in a group and then later on around ten I just had my grandmother watch. I was a bit ready for today. We have to use a microphone though which worries me because I talk loud in my speech...
Plus just to quickly add, my friend, Joey, is doing his speech on how to play a Nintendo DS. So he made me bring my DS to school today to help him demonstrate how the wi-fi connection works. Well, he ended up not doing his speech either today. But during home ec. and lunch, we had some pretty interesting conversations on Pictochat. Even during lunch, my friend Andy got his DS into the craze. I might bring it on a daily basis now. No matter what, Thursday I have to bring it. And we're supposed to get an ice storm Thursday morning too...interesting how this'll all turn out.
I have a math test on reflections, translations, glide reflections, and rotations, an English quiz on characters from the Odyssey, and a pre chemistry quiz on equations we got from our labs all tomorrow so I have to go study just a little bit because it's ten already and carry soup downstairs for my mother. Have a good one.

Still Away From Home
As the answering machine on the phone's charger nearby beeps every three seconds, I am sitting on my sister's computer once again typing up another blog entry. Yes, I'm still here. Like I said, you could practically call their house my house too. It's almost like they adopted me. Hell, they even straighted up their old bedroom which is the guest room now as my own room yesterday. It was a pretty convient transfer too because I used to always sleep on their couch in the living room everytime I slept over, even though on Friday night I accidentally fell asleep in their bed which is a double pillow-top matress. That bed is just too comfortable. It shakes like a water bed when you sit on it, but there's no water to be found anywhere in the depths of the bed. But their couch is comfortable and I didn't mind sleeping on it. Even though every single time in the morning I got up from sleeping on the couch I'd only have one sock on (with the reason why still unknown), it was a very comfortable sleeping environment. Actually any couch is more comfortable than my old matress was. If you pressed your pinky finger down upon that old matress you could feel the bars of my bed below. To be honest with you, I don't even know why I'm talking about matresses when I was orginally talking about my sister's apartment in general...
Anyhow, a lot happened here yesterday. A lot more than what happened Friday evening in which was a very tiring day for some odd reason. For one, my sister got her unemployment check in the mail from the state because my sister and her husband were laid off from work around last month and late December. There wasn't too much work so they didn't need them. That seems to be a regular pattern happening in Northeastern Pennsylvania nowadays. Anyway, back to the check. The funny part was that my brother-in-law was expecting his unemployment check and was axnious as all hell for the mail to come so he could see if he got it. He was on the phone at the time the mail carrier came around so my sister ran down the stairs to retrieve the mail. She came up saying that he didn't get any check -- but that she got one. Well, they both practically shit themselves because neither of them expected her to get an unemployment check. But with the check, my brother-in-law wanted to go shopping for a new keyboard so that they could get rid of their dinosaur one and maybe one of those clear, plastic mats that you place on top of a rug floor for a desk chair to roll around with ease. So we all got ready and went to go cash the check at a store in Dunmore and headed toward Circuit City located in the business district of Dickson City. I took my camera with me to take pictures which you'll see posted later on. My brother-in-law spotted a cheap $20 black keyboard that felt comfortable to them (they opened the box to feel the keys) and for that low price, they bought it. Now stopping at OfficeMax later on to look for a mouse pad and a clear, plastic mat (in which both of those were bought), they found the same keyboard in which the price was five dollars cheaper than what it was at Circuit City, so he was a little ticked about that. So after stopping at the car wash, we went back "home".
The plot then thickened from there on. My brother-in-law had to go to work and I was supposed to head home. However my sister and brother-in-law wanted me to stay for another night but my mother stated that my father needed me to help him with the garage door opener. She also stated that I could come back up after I helped him, but I knew that was a plan to convience me to go home without a fight. Now I'm a cunning mastermind when it comes to getting my demands met, and contacted right on the head of the nail. I left my web cam and $300 new digital Nikon 4800 with case and accesories here at my sister's. Plan was: if she said that I couldn't come back, my mother, then I would say I wanted to go outside to take a picture of a bird or something, because I would be "depressed" that I couldn't go back to my sister's. Upon looking into my plastic bag holding my belongings, I wouldn't find my camera anywhere and I would say that I must've left it at my sister's. I did that part of the plan later on when I went home (and my father didn't need me because he found a way to do the task by himself without me). Then my mother started freaking out at me and exclaiming how my father was going to have my head over this newly developed issue. Well, she wasn't going to push into the plan so I did the fake cry and depression that I'm just so good at. I have a hard time crying without actually being very emotional over something, so I just thought about my cat, Pumpkin, who recently died and the good times I had with him. That worked and I started tearing. Long story short, my demands were met and my sister found herself coming back down to my house to get me.
And to make another long story short (just because my brother-in-law wants to use the computer to check his mail and the whatnot), I went to my brother-in-law's job with my sister around six in the evening yesterday to get something to eat and just to say hello. Yet again, he works at a bar/restaurant in the kitchen as a cook, and damn is his cooking good. So my sister and I had some of his cooking and shot some pool. I never really shot pool before besides on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in which I learned how to play the game on there and how it worked with stripes and solids and everything, so it was a new and fun experience, and I got slightly addicted to it.
Well, I have to go write my own description of a cyclomps, study, and think about my speech that is due in two days (in which I didn't even start an aspect of it yet), so maker sure you have a good one. Here's your pictures:

A Weekend Home
A vacation from home. Where would be the ideal location to have one? Maybe the beach? Neh, I went there last summer to Oak Island, North Carolina and it didn't really tickle my fancy. Never seeing the ocean before and only going to the beach at a local dam, it was a new and fun experience. Bu it's just too foreign for me to enjoy. I'm use to rolling hills and valleys with high, sloping mountains with forests and countryside surrounding them, not a great sandy plain with crab grass and red ants galore. Well, I'm off-track. Would I stay at a hotel with satellite TV with a thousand channels, room service that has every type of cheese to date, and a spa? Neh. I never went to one but just, no. I wouldn't enjoy it. I'd have to say my ideal vacation, my home away from home, is where I'm at right now. My sister and brother-in-law's house. Yes, I'm here again. This is about the fifth weekend I slept over here and I've talked about it previously, so I'll leave it at that. I like to be original with my introductions. Besides saying like I orginally planned "Yet again, I'm sitting around here at my sister's house on their ancient caveman machine typing up this entry on their typo supreme keyboard", I said that paragraph instead. Actually half the stuff I type there's no reason behind it. I just like to type.
Nothing much really occurred here. It was a tiring night last night. Right after school my sister picked me up and I came here, and jumped right into my old computer seat that we gave them to go on the computer. I brought my web cam with me to go on BlogExplosion. Well, I hooked it up, plugged it into the USB port, and realized that the web cam needed to be installed and I forgot the installation CD. Damn that was a stupid mistake. Thankfully my brother-in-law was in the mood for driving and took me back home to grab it. After returning fom the little trip, I installed all of the hardware and was ready to go. Turned out that the damn cam worked everywhere else but the chatroom I wanted to publish it in. It worked fine on the software that comes with the cam but there, no. I hate this cam... I tried installing Flash but that didn't work...oh well...
This monitor is giving me a headache so I'm just going to go do some homework or the whatnot. I have some pictures I uploaded first. Have a good day.

Blog Explosion Is Amazing
Today I did the "no homework" dance. And it was great. Today I took a quiz in Spanish. And it was great. Today I tried to take a picture of a bird because I had no homework and figured I'd waste some time outside, taking pictures of birds. That, however, did not go great. Just the other day I went to Lowes with my father and I purchased a wild bird feeder so that besides me looking for the birds, the birds will come to me. Since we got it, I didn't see a damn bird go near it. So I realized that there's a lot of birds in my neighbor's bushes. Well, their bushes mark the dividing line of their yard. So therefore, you'd think it would be easy for me to take a picture of a bird in a bush in the middle of the winter with no leaves on the bush at all in which the bush is right there practically next to me, but it's not. It drives me crazy. You hear the damn things everywhere like they're right behind you or in the pine tree above you, but you just can't see them. There's a huge thorn bush behind my garage which is my neighbor's also (only God knows why they'd want a thing like that there...is it a sign of territory?) and I found a flock of birds in the bush. Only problem. It's hard getting a clear shot. Well, I actually think I took a picture of a bird, but it's not what I wanted. There's thorns in the way and the whatnot. I want to take a picture of a bird right there in the grass in front of you. Only in the summer that occurs. Maybe a bird flying. I only see birds fly when I'm standing at the bus stop in the morning, camera-less. Maybe a bird eating seeds out of the damn feeder we got, but no! They rather go play in a thorn bush! I don't even know why I have this symptom to take a picture of a bird even...
I didn't make the Environthon team, but one of my best friends who I convienced to try out made it. Maybe it's a good thing I convienced him...
I was in the Blog Explosion shoutbox all day just because that thing is amazing. Nowhere else did I ever see a chatroom where you can have both your web cam and audio on it for others to view, plus get hits on your blog at the same time if anybody is interested. There's a lot of nice people there. Tons. I was doing my Spanish homework (which is due for Friday so it technically isn't homework until tomorrow, but I did it anyways) and everybody was jumping right in to help. Hell, I had a nice person phone up a friend to ask them what a word meant in Spanish. I would give a special shoutout to these people, but I cannot remrmber names for the life of me. The only people I remember right now is somebody with a "j" in there name, somebody with a "b" in there name, Outer, Croaker, and many others. Yet again like I'll say over and over again, I have a very short memory. Anyway, I have my web cam hooked up there and sometimes I hook my microphone hooked up also (only if I'm on my laptop though) so maybe if you're a regular reader here, sign up there and you'll be able to know me a lot better. On my first blog I made a little chat room but that didn't work out too well...
This is just a short post so I have no pictures, sorry. Have a good one.

Plan's Going Well
You know that Runescape plan I had going on in the last post? How I was going to do Hero's Quest this weekend with Craig? Yea, it's pulling through just fine. You know, my herblore is almost at the requirement but my mining and cooking is, I have all the quest points needed, and my combat level is high enough for me to move on.
I wish! I didn't play Runescape since the last entry I posted. I woke up late on Sunday so I just went on the Blog Explosion chat practically all day, being that I found the USB cable for my old eVision 123 (I actually took a picture of that old thing to show you but this is just a short notice kind of entry) and had the web cam going on there. Then Monday...Oh my God. I forgot what I did yesterday. I swear I have some disease where I can't remember shit sometimes. Anyway, Craig found somebody else to do Hero's Quest with because he wants it done this weekend and there's no way I'll get anywhere near the requirements by then. That means I can slow back down to my regular pace and go slowly, although I didn't like the fact he called me a noob, over the phone too. Now a stranger calling you a noob is something, but your best friend calling you one just isn't right. Shows how computer speak is used in reality these days. You'll have celebrites on TV laughing "lol!" I would hate that day. Heck they won't even have reality TV in the future when that happens, they'll have little mind chips with laser projections that show you dancing hampsters with a tux on. Wow, I'm starting to get ahead of myself. I was going to save that topic for future discussion...in the future, but I guess I just jumped into the sinking boat. Yep, I'm not making any sense today...
Today was the qualifying test for the Environthon team at our school. During period 6B after lunch, we had to report to room 136 and take a "fun" test to see if we can get onto the team. Well, here's a problem already. Only three freshmen are allowed on the team this year due to the large amount of seniors already on the team. Well, there happened to be near twenty freshmen in the room. Hardly anybody else. This means I won't get on the team, and half the other people in the room. Many deserve to get on the team after studying the material that was suppossed to be on the test, but not me. I just realized yesterday that the test was today. I forgot that the 21st follows the 20th. How could I do such a thing like that?
Well, I'm tired so I'm going to stop myself from typing now before I hurt anybody's feelings. I'm not even aware of what I'm saying. So, have a good one.
P.S. I forgot to mention that the Environthon test was the hardest thing I ever took, but I happened to miss that major input in that paragraph.

Runescape Report
The following is the layout of my day today:
A lot happened today in Runescape. I don't remember where I started the day at. Way too much happened. I think I began my Runescapean day in the Ardounage Zoo with my rune halbred on me fighting the jogres and cyclomps. (I think I actually spelt cyclomps right.) Last night (I was on until two in the morning again) after getting my theiving to 38 for the purpose of getting better seeds by pickpocketing master farmers, I went to the Ardounage Zoo with high hopes of getting my combat level up. I soon then signed off. Today, I was only in the Ardounage Zoo for a little while when Craig PMed me asking if I wanted to do the Sheild of Arrav quest with him, being that he was a free-to-play player at the time because he lost members for a while and wanted to get a requirement for the Hero's Quest while he was in that horrible state. I refused to at first saying that I was busying getting my combat up, but after arguing with him, I gave up and walked over to Varrock. I thought it would be better for myself too if I got the quest over with besides waiting for a stranger to help me with it. We flew through the quest, got the single quest point, and seperated our ways. Craig went to Karjamia Island to get his cooking and fishing up (other requirements for the Hero's Quest) and I went to Barbearien Village on a free-to-play world to get my cooking up. We decided to do Hero's Quest together also and he wants to do it ASAP and I have a ton of requirements to get for it. After getting feathers and a fly-fishing rod from Port Sarim and the farm south of Varrock, I went to the village's fishing spot to fish, with my rune axe and tinderbox on me to start fires.
I must say the free-to-play community is a funny bunch. I felt some pride seeing all the green names of players walking around me with the few red and orange ones (or forest green) around also. After catching salmon and trout and cooking them, I would just give them away for free or if nobody traded with me, I'd just drop them. It's quite humorous when people stand in a crowd around a normal tree shouting, "Need fire!" I felt like their savor with my tinderbox and axe. I had my rune halbred on me (a member-only object) to see what comments I would get. (Just a quick note: Craig has members again.) I got comments like "Awesome weapon!", "How much for hally?", "Nice hally", etc. I just got a weird kick out of doing that. What really got me mad was how immature some people were. I started a fire right at a fishing spot where others were fishing to cook my fish. I swear, if I heard one more "I'm on fire! Aahhhh!", "Yes! Burn them!" or "Toasty" that I was going to go crazy. But then I set fires there from then on on purpose just for the joy of hearing their screams so I can't say that I'm not immature in that department of hardware.
A lot more happened inbetween, but I can't remember the order. Anyway, I then traveled to Draynor Village the long way (going across the bridge from Barbearian Village, going into Varrock, going south through the farm, and then through the forest behind Lumbridge) because I thought I'd find a master farmer on the way (but there were only normal farmers) so that I could get some good seeds.I think I was on a pay-to-play/member server by now. I wanted to go to Encrtea Island (I can't spell so please bear with it) so that I could invest my income into the herblore shop there. I had to go to Draynor to strip myself of any weapons and armour. I went, got the items I wanted, and came back. Before going and after going, I was pickpocketing the master farmers in Dranor Village for their seeds, and I got some fairly good seeds. I then traveled through Falador, over White Wolf Mountain, and into Caterby to resume cooking. But first I wanted to have crops growing at the full farm behind Caterby at the same time. This system took me a while to set in, but I got my cabbage and marentill seeds out of the bank and planted them. Then I went down and fished a bit, catching mackeral and cod, and went back every once in a while to water my cabbage. My cabbage never got a disease because I had a mature rosemary flower sitting around in the flower patch. I then switched to a harpoon to catch tuna and swordfish with after my cooking reached the requirement to cook swordfish, burning half the fish I caught.
I then got some herblore going on too. I found some unids (unidentified herbs) in my bank that were guam leaves. (Hear this first. I thought that there were guam leaves growing behind Gertude's house outside of Varrock earlier today when in fact I was wrong and they were doogle leaves which are only used to spice up a cat's meal.) I got them, my vials I bought earlier, and the eyes of newt I bought earlier, and made some attack potions. At this point, my herblore level was high enough to make anti-posion potions. So, I grabbed the marentill herbs I grew yesterday and some I grew today and made the potions, killing the nearby unicorns for their horns. It's strange how this weird, little system worked out for me. Even before all of this when I first got to Caterby, I was discussing with Craig how he got his guam leaves when I passed the Caterby bank and found a single guam leaf lying on the ground. Well, at this point, I was frying my fish black way too much and after looking at the skill calculators on RuneHQ, I figured this would take the remainder of my holiday vacation. So, I finished up farming, get my last batch of marentill herbs which only got me four herbs (I was pissed about this because I received six and seven herbs prior to that batch) and teleported to Varrock. Earlier today, I got my magic up to be able to teleport to Varrock and at the Caterby bank, some guy was selling three law runes, three death runes, and four unids for 900 gp so I took them. Also I had bought the fire, earth, and water staffs today at Varrock after finishing the quest with Craig. And before I turned the game off, I found out I already had seven law runes in the bank. I figured that I would get my cooking up faster in the Cooking Guild because it had a jar and grape respawn point there, which when water and grapes combine and sit for a while, you get a jar of wine. A jar of wine, when made, gives you 200 cooking exp. More than the exp a swordfish or tuna gave you, in which I burnt half of those. But story short, half of my wines went bad and the spawning of the two items took too long so I should've stuck with fishing.
Like I said before, tons more happened inbetween but that's just the low-down of the major events. You're probably wondering why I wrote a novel here to tell you this. Well, because if you never played Runescape, reading this will cause your brain to hurt and make you feel like you're on some drugs possibly, unless you're into midevil kind of stories. Or if you play Runescape, you might enjoy the tales I tell. In my searches, there aren't too many Runescape-related blogs out there, so I hope this blog can gain some dignity because of that. Also when I reach combat level 123 and all my skills besides some combat-related ones are all 99, you'll be able to see how that all unfolded. Yea...I wish my combat and skill levels were that high. Even in two years they wouldn't reach that point.
Here's my plan:
Well, I'm off to bed. I probably forgot to say a lot of things but it's 1:11 AM on Sunday morning and I'm pooped. Time to proofread what I wrote so that I won't make more of a fool out of myself than I already did in many parts of this post. Here's two Runescape pictures. Have a good one.
- 12:00 -- Mother yells at me to get up because one of our recycable bins blew across main street. With my eyes practically closed, I cross the street, almost getting hit by a car, and slipping on newly fallen snow.
- Around 1:00 -- I turn Runescape on, being on my desktop computer.
- Around 5 or 6:00 -- Supper.
- After Supper: I turn on Runescape, being on my laptop computer.
- 11:50 -- I get off of Runescape, tired as all hell and eyes bloodshot.
A lot happened today in Runescape. I don't remember where I started the day at. Way too much happened. I think I began my Runescapean day in the Ardounage Zoo with my rune halbred on me fighting the jogres and cyclomps. (I think I actually spelt cyclomps right.) Last night (I was on until two in the morning again) after getting my theiving to 38 for the purpose of getting better seeds by pickpocketing master farmers, I went to the Ardounage Zoo with high hopes of getting my combat level up. I soon then signed off. Today, I was only in the Ardounage Zoo for a little while when Craig PMed me asking if I wanted to do the Sheild of Arrav quest with him, being that he was a free-to-play player at the time because he lost members for a while and wanted to get a requirement for the Hero's Quest while he was in that horrible state. I refused to at first saying that I was busying getting my combat up, but after arguing with him, I gave up and walked over to Varrock. I thought it would be better for myself too if I got the quest over with besides waiting for a stranger to help me with it. We flew through the quest, got the single quest point, and seperated our ways. Craig went to Karjamia Island to get his cooking and fishing up (other requirements for the Hero's Quest) and I went to Barbearien Village on a free-to-play world to get my cooking up. We decided to do Hero's Quest together also and he wants to do it ASAP and I have a ton of requirements to get for it. After getting feathers and a fly-fishing rod from Port Sarim and the farm south of Varrock, I went to the village's fishing spot to fish, with my rune axe and tinderbox on me to start fires.
I must say the free-to-play community is a funny bunch. I felt some pride seeing all the green names of players walking around me with the few red and orange ones (or forest green) around also. After catching salmon and trout and cooking them, I would just give them away for free or if nobody traded with me, I'd just drop them. It's quite humorous when people stand in a crowd around a normal tree shouting, "Need fire!" I felt like their savor with my tinderbox and axe. I had my rune halbred on me (a member-only object) to see what comments I would get. (Just a quick note: Craig has members again.) I got comments like "Awesome weapon!", "How much for hally?", "Nice hally", etc. I just got a weird kick out of doing that. What really got me mad was how immature some people were. I started a fire right at a fishing spot where others were fishing to cook my fish. I swear, if I heard one more "I'm on fire! Aahhhh!", "Yes! Burn them!" or "Toasty" that I was going to go crazy. But then I set fires there from then on on purpose just for the joy of hearing their screams so I can't say that I'm not immature in that department of hardware.
A lot more happened inbetween, but I can't remember the order. Anyway, I then traveled to Draynor Village the long way (going across the bridge from Barbearian Village, going into Varrock, going south through the farm, and then through the forest behind Lumbridge) because I thought I'd find a master farmer on the way (but there were only normal farmers) so that I could get some good seeds.I think I was on a pay-to-play/member server by now.

Even in two years they wouldn't reach that point.
Here's my plan:
- Tomorrow: Finish getting cooking to required level for Hero's Quest. Get mining to required level (only two levels away). Do the Merlin's Crystal quest, a required quest. Maximun that I'd do tomorrow: Get herblore-related items to raise the level in the skill. Get magic up.
- Monday: Do the Lost City quest. Hopefully...
- During the school week: Train on giants, moss giants, or ogres with my dragon long if and only if I do the Lost City quest on Monday. Get herblore to required level. Maximum that I'd do during the business week: Get money by chopping yews.
Well, I'm off to bed. I probably forgot to say a lot of things but it's 1:11 AM on Sunday morning and I'm pooped. Time to proofread what I wrote so that I won't make more of a fool out of myself than I already did in many parts of this post. Here's two Runescape pictures. Have a good one.

Addicted to Runescape...Yet Again
Recently I haven't been playing the MMORPG game Runescape lately and not just because I had assignment after assignment, project after project, and test after test, but also because I grew bored of the game. Gasp, how could you do such a thing with a huge game like Runescape? Easy for me, I have a short attention span when it comes to things like Runescape, but Runescape is one of the few things I actually come back to. The Sims Online I left once and went back, but that's because our first computer with it broke and we got it installed on our second computer after months of missing the game. Also some things like RPG Maker XP I went back to, only leaving when I understood how much of my life was wasted away on a game I'll never finish or if an event that I can't get right gets in my way. Other things like the Super Mario World editor comes and goes in a single day. I get excited enough to spend two hours looking for the ROM and the emulator and finally getting the broken .rar archieve to work with the actual editor and yet it doesn't last through the night. However, Runescape, like I mentioned, is a whole different experience. You're actually playing with other people doings things that'll make yourself stronger and better than the rest of the people around you besides sitting in a cramped, little computer room with all the pleasure in the world you have is a USB SNES controller, some ROMs, SNES emulator, and an editor for a SNES game. That's just foolish. I tend to do things that matter, however I mostly get lost on the main trail and find a new quest that leads me on a great adventure, however I only get paid 200 gp for my hardships, then a lesser demon pops out of nowhere and kills my cat.
But anyway, I have become addicted to Runescape (hopefully you could tell by now) again and I've been spending my time going with the flow and trying all new things, liking many of them. Last week sometime, my friend, Craig, wanted me to play again. Craig plays the game almost 24/7, beating me in almost every stat besides fishing, which is quite funny because I'm the one who showed him the game, making him the "student" and me the "teacher". But like they always say, the student always gets smarter than the teacher. So anyways, I booted up SwiftSwitch and played the game, cutting yews. Just the whole joy of being back with the Runescape community as I was there standing around chopping yews got me addicted again. Later on, more toward the weekend or on it, (actually now that I think about it, it might've been Sunday) Craig suggested that I fight hellhounds with him in a dungeon east of East Ardounage. I was there at the time fighting ogres in a previously locked room that only becomes unlocked by flipping switches when he PMed me asking to come down to fight with him. I said in horror, "No!" I wasn't going to go in direct combat with a level 110+ dog from hell. I then brought up buying a rune hally because he told me he used to take his dragon halbred in there before he went into ranging, but I'm not the best guy in the Runescape merchenting world. The reason why I want player-owned shops. (There's still no word on player-owned houses.) So I gave Craig 100k gp and told him to go buy me a rune hally from somebody. Some time later, he PMs me telling me he got one for exactly 100k gp. So we trade, I get the hally, and I go down with him to the hellhounds. I didn't like the hellhounds too much. Too much other traffic and they could easily attack you depending on where you're standing and where they spawn. Plus there's only two, big woot. So I went away and walked around wondering where I could fight monsters from behind a fence, rocks, etc. Then it hit me. The Ardounage Zoo.
For some portions of the week, I trained on the wolves, cyclomps, and the jogre at the Ardounage Zoo getting my combat up. However due to my English assignment that was due Monday and my Spanish family tree that was due Tuesday (both of those going well), I wasn't able to play as much as I wanted to. Recently I moved on from training at the zoo and I don't know what made me do it, but yesterday I began to farm. I thought the farming skill would be the last thing in the game I would get up, but it's actually one of the first ones that I plan to get up high, besides my attack, strength, defence, fishing, woodcutting, and mining. I love this skill. Even though the lowest time for a crop to take is about 17.5 minutes, this being for flowers, the skill is a lot of fun, and you can do many other things while doing the skill. For example, I got my fletching up 16 levels since I started farming because I would chop down the abundent normal and oak trees located nearby at the farm in Caterby. Also I plan to get my firemaking up a bit just for the heck of it. Contribute to the overall level. Today I tried growing hops in the hop patches, and in my spare time I tried making glass on Ectraca Island but after a full load of oil lamps I have made, I went back to get some sea weed and there was practically a party there. If I ever plan on using a hop patch again though, it's going to be the patch near the coal trucks on the outside of Seers Village.
Actually I was going to make a little super farming system of my own. You'll see some articles on Runescape sites talking about these fast exp making methods of farming by being on the move constontaly and teleporting here and there wearing fancy amulets and having tons of law runes, but I have instead created my own method. I haven't put it into practice yet but I tried the first part of it and it worked, although there was a bountiful amount of walking back and forth. I call this method I have created due to my outstanding wisdom (sarcasism) the "Farming Triangle of EXP Points". That's the best I could come up with. Anyway, here's the low-down. There's three different farming areas on the west side of White Wolf Mountain that form a triangle. The full farm in Caterby, the hop patch in Seers, and the full farm on the outside of East Ardounage. Now here's the plan. You start off at Caterby, planting the flowers and crops (I can't think of the proper word for the patch now...was it atollement?) and then you head off west toward Seers Village and Camalot. You should come out of the woods near Camolot at the fountains in the front of the castle. Head west toward the bank and walk past it, until you get to a south turn in the road. At the turn, head north, past the coal trucks. You'll find a hop patch surrounded by dead trees and maple trees. Now get your business done there and walk back to that road, going south toward the full farm near Ardounage. Once you get to that farm, getting your business done, head up the coast until you get back to Caterby, watering and checking your plants. Herbs are not guarnteed to work with this method. I only tried from Caterby to Seers so I'm not sure if the whole complete triangle would work, but it may. Also there's a fruit tree patch near the beach at Caterby (one of the most popular fishing resorts in the game) so if you're that high a level and you have the seeds, then you can morph the method into the "Irregular-Shaped Quadrilateral Farming Method of Good Food Fast".
That's enough about Runescape. I just spent an hour typing about it while eating supper inbetween. I was hardly on AIM, Drake's forum, etc. at all lately due to Runescape so I thought I would explain myself why by doing it here. Oh yes, I didn't post here in a while too due to Runescape. How could I forget my own site? I forgot...I had a short attention span...
We've been having some weird weather lately here. Yesterday it was 60 degrees F outside whereas today we were getting 60 MPH winds. Both of these days were wasted on my computer playing Runescape. I was up until 2:30 this morning playing the damn game. Anyway, I didn't waste too much of my life yesterday because I went over Craig's house. I sat there for an hour or more watching him play Runescape because his membership ran out today and he wanted to sell as much junk that he could for a profit. Thankfully he sent out a money order to renew his membership just two days ago so he should have the membership back shortly. Hopefully. Afterwards, we played Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. Then I went home to play Runescape, until 2:30 in the morning... Also I want to show the funniest trade I ever saw so far in Runescape. This guy wanted to give all of this crap to Craig for his dwarf cannon while Craig wanted 650k gp in cash for it. Here's the picture.
I still had some pictures on my digital camera that I took at my sister's on Sunday after I posted my second-to-last previous blog entry so I uploaded that to Imageshack and now I'm going to put them on here for your viewing pleasure. You'll see the towns of Peckville and Olyphant on here (remember the good ol' Secret of Olyphant days?) and also the yet to be unfamous but will someday be famous "Discount Drugs Of Canada" sign. Also you'll see my sister's cat again, Buster, sleeping...thankfully. Here you go, then I must go. So have a good one.

Semi
I'm going to make this blog entry very short and quick because LOST and is coming on and I just can't miss LOST.
Well, first off, I am very happy. I have gotten a date for the semi formal at our school. This being Caitlin, who is a regular reader of this blog and comments quite often. She will most likely read this so I will tell her that I'm very happy and excited that I'm going with you and I hope we have a great time. The only problem though is that we hardly speak in person, only a lot online, so I'm still quite nervous on speaking in person. I'm weird like that. I hope it all works out though. I just need some ice breakers.
I got those pictures to work on the previous post. And my sister got a blog on Blogger, which you'll find by clicking on my user profile. I'm too lazy now to post because LOST is on.
Have a good one.

Here At Sister's
Well, this is the first blog entry I ever posted at my sister's. Normally I choose not to because of her damn keyboard, in which the keys are tiny and I'll probably have a thousand typos here. Plus her cap lock takes a lot of pressure to push down. i could just type without any capilaztion, but why would i want to do something like that? seriously. flordia. george bush. mr. jones. mt. saint helens. Okay, enough of that. It's great here though. Like I always say, I just love the atmosphere. It's practically my weekend home. Anyway, I took my camera here to take pictures and upload images to the internet while I was here. Well, Imageshack is having some problems but finally it's somewhat stable. The "My Images" section is out of order and they keep on switching me to different servers, in which I have to log back in again. I thought that would be a problem but I got the pictures on. I got quite scared though because when I got here, their DSL wasn't working. So alas being the "great computer guru" that I am, I fixed that problem by reinstalling their Verizon Online services. Thankfully they have me.
I'm now going to stop typing and just put the pictures up. My finger is killing me from typing on this early 90's keyboard. These pictures are as random as random could get so brace yourself. More than half are stupid too, but I don't care, I love sharing pictures. and i hate not using proper grammar. damn cap lock.

If you encounter any problems with pictures on my page, that's because of Imageshack's server problems.
I have to do that darn writing assignment soon which I'm trying to avoid doing...have a good one.
EDIT at 12:33 -- It appears that some pictures are not working when clicked on and a Blogger error comes up. I will try to see what the problem is but I don't see why a Blogger error is coming up when Imageshack is the one have the problems...
