Do you ever feel like your totally unwanted and your not great at anything? Half the people you hang out with talk shit about you? You usually the odd one out; that's the point I'm at right now and I hate it. I think I have a few neofriends but who knows how they truthfully feel about me, do they like me, or do they just talk to me because I start a conversation and they feel obliged to respond.

Well now I'm officially a moderator, of my favourite forum ever.
I'm loving it!

And!

I haven't the third cutest partner for Dawn! (Coming behind Paul and Kenny, obv.)
Come to think of it, I haven't done a Penguin shipping, maybe I should...
But anyway!
I've started the "thrid cutest Dawn pairing" and I'm not telling you who the mystery guy is.

WAIT!
It's fourth! Can't forget Pearlshipping can we? Equally as cute.

Hmm, maybe fifth could be Drew... It'd spice things up between Dawn and May me thinks...
Mystery guy.. Mystery guy.. ^_^
Lolol. I'm going to enjoy writing this. I'm planning it out and everything!
Do you think I should evolve Ash's Chimchar in it? I haven't mentioned it yet because I meantioned Floatzel instead.
And of course, Ash's amazing Gliscor will make an epic appearence. And I shall hug it and hug it forever and ever! It's so stupid it's cute! Lol..

Mystery Guy Mystery Guy... *Evil music played*
Do comment your ideas. ;)

It's been common knowledge that Narwhals are my favorite mythical creature. Ask Artificer.

Well, today, in search of my old narwhal display pic, I found out that they were real. Even National Geographic says they are real. I'm a little bit disappointed...


Narwhals, jousting.


A flock of narwhals.





"The narwhal (Monodon monoceros) is medium-sized toothed whale that lives year-round in the Arctic. The males of the species have a characteristic long tusk extending from their upper jaw. Seldom found south of latitude 70°N, the narwhal is one of two species of white whale in the Monodontidae family, along with the Beluga whale.

Male narwhals weigh up to 1,600 kg (3,500 lb), and the females weigh around 1,000 kg (2,200 lb). The pigmentation of the narwhal is a mottled black and white pattern. They are darkest when born and become more white in color with age.

The most conspicuous characteristic of the male narwhal is its single 2-3 m (7-10 ft) long tusk. It is an incisor tooth that projects from the left side of the upper jaw and forms a left-handed helix. The tusk can be up to three metres (nearly 10 ft) long (compared with a body length of 4-6 m [13-16 ft]) and weigh up to 10 kg (22 lbs). About one in 500 males has two tusks, which occurs when the right incisor, normally small, also grows out. A female narwhal may also produce a tusk, but this occurs rarely, and there is a single recorded case of a female with dual tusks.

Several explanations have been proposed for the purpose of the narwhal's tusk. The most broadly accepted theory that the tusk is a secondary sexual characteristic, similar to the mane of a lion or the tail feathers of a peacock. This hypothesis was notably discussed and defended at length by Charles Darwin, in The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex (1871) . It may help determine social rank, maintain dominance hierarchies or help young males develop skills necessary for performance in adult sexual roles. Narwhals have rarely been observed using their tusk for fighting or other aggressive behavior or for breaking sea ice in their Arctic habitat. Other hypothesized uses include courting females and defense. Other hypotheses have included the suggestion that the tusk may in fact be a sensory organ."

Kk, so I was thinking about playing an MMORPG after a friend of mine used to talk to me about them and how he enjoyed playing them. He's a pretty decent, honest guy, and has good taste in most games, so I thought to myself 'Hey, why not?' And set out to look at several different games, to decide ultimately, which one I should buy.

I eventually, after looking through a few online games, decided to purchase a copy of Guild Wars, as opposed to various other games, this had no subscription fees (yes, I'm cheap like that), and my friend also played it and was a big fan of it, and convinced me to buy it. I then searched through the internet and managed to buy the complete collection off Amazon for £25 (a pretty good price).

After a week, it was finally here, on Christmas Eve. Excited, I rushed straight to my computer to play it, to find it didn't work properly, because my computer was so old and crap it didn't support it, so yeah, I was pretty heartbroken. Anyway, the moral of this story is to check the requirements and shiz before you buy a game. Or in my case to get a better computer. My one's ten years old with an 18GB hard drive, so I desperately need a new one. I might be getting a new laptop soon, so when it's confirmed, I'll be pretty excited.

Well, here I am with my brand-spankin' new blog, and no clue what I'm going to do with it. What is going to make this different than any other blog? Probably nothing. But you know, if you've been reading this much already, I guess I have to make this good then, don't I?


I suppose a lot of these blogs that I write will be about Music, since that is what my entire life revolves around. Of Course I'll do Movie/Book reviews (if I actually read a book), and drone on about some TV show that I watched. Video Game reviews will probably come around every once in a while. But for now, I'll just bore you a bit with my life, so we can just get this over with. I'll give you a bit of background info so that you can at least try to understand whatever the hell goes through my mind. Shall we?


Well, I'll start off by introducing myself. My name is Albert E., I'm currently 15 years old, and am looking forward to my 16th birthday so that I can drive. I live in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It's a nice little town, about a 30 minute drive to actually get into Philadelphia, although it's boring as hell. I try to get out of here as often as possible.


I have 7 members of my family, 3 sisters, my parents, myself, and a bird. I say the bird is a member of my family because he creepily follows us everywhere. In the past year I have lost two of my grandfathers, and one of my grandmothers died a few years back.


I'm currently enrolled in my Sophmore year of High School, and intend on going to college. I'm hoping to go to college up in the Boston area, but as it always is in life, money is the issue. Unless I get a pretty big scholarship, I'm not going anywhere other than a State School.


I'll talk more about my music and television preferences in the future, I'm sure you are already snoring. Thanks for the read, and I hope you read my future blog posts, which I am sure will be more interesting.

Hello this is my very first blog post. I have no idea what blogs are (I'm spherely dumb), just thought I might try.
I'm crazilly hyper and bored today so I do not know what to do with myself other than try stuff out on neo...
Oh yes now I remember I'd like to add please call me Lauren, when the Fab part is in there I sound all snooty and such.

I recently bought a PS3, with Fallout 3, Resistance 2, and other games I can’t be bothered to mention. But anyway, Im just wondering why console gaming has become so annoying nowadays?

I started my PS3 and I went through the start-up process, which a casual gamer who isn't that interested in cutting edge technology would find pretty complicated. It took me about 10 minutes to get it hooked up to my wireless etc. I guess that isn't too much to ask. So I then go to register for Playstation network, and then im told I need to download the latest firmware. As of now, im becoming slightly irritated, but I decide to go and download it anyway. Another 10 minutes is taken downloading and installing firmware. Ok, so I register for PSN and then pop in Fallout 3, I want to see what all the fuss is about for the game. And Guess what, I get the message on screen that I cannot play until I download the new patch. Now im becoming a little angry that its taking me so long to PLAY A GAME on something that has a main purpose of PLAYING GAMES. I download the patch and then reset my PS3 to then finally start playing. Then I decide to try Resistance. So Im holding the dualshock 3 in excitement because im about to play a critically acclaimed FPS. "A new patch is available; you must download it to continue". *SIGH*.

Bear in mind that this happened to me with EVERY game I bought, which were 5 in total.

And then, I had my PS3 crash on me when I got a message from a friend on PSN while playing Motorstorm 2. My Gamecube never crashed on me, my PS2 never crashed on me, and my PS1 never crashed on me, which has been working flawlessly for 10 years now. Im not disputing the fact that the PS3 can do much more than all these consoles, but I don't want added inconveniences for added features.

So is this the price we have to pay to get shiny HD graphics and online features built into every game? As much as having a blu-ray player and sixaxis controls sounds nice, I bought my console primarily so I could plug it in and get playing. And to fanboys that may say "get a 360 it owns PS3", the 360 has all the same issues I.E. the RROD. Why the hell did it take Microsoft 3 years to bring out a motherboard model that wouldn't randomly die on you when playing a game? To me all this should have been sorted out before they released any of the consoles and games. Now, developers can bring out sub par games and then work on a patch after, so they can make more money.

Also my PSP crashes on me on average every week. My GBA never crashed. And im not exaggerating.

And as for the Wii, ive played it countless times and I have no interest for the thing. To me, you play it when you get it and then leave to choke in a thick pile of dust.

Im not saying that I hate modern gaming. This generation has seen some fantastic games released. Resistance 2, Motorstorm, Gears of war, and as much as I hate to say it, super smash bros brawl are all examples of great, current generation titles. It’s just that why does it have to come with the added annoyances? Crashing, Bugs and glitches, hardware failures and a general decrease in quality hardware have become ever more common in the modern industry.

Then to finish it off, I find that gaming just isn't as much fun anymore. Up to now, I’ve never had as fun an experience as I did back in 98' when I played Crash bandicoot 3 on my new PS1.

Im not going to boycott my PS3. But in my humble opinion, console gaming has lost much of its enjoyability and lost its soul.

I'm over at my dads house this weekend. And I've been having a fun time. To bad my dads internet didn't work with my dses Wifi. I was lookign forward to battling Sky. But hopefully I'll be able to battle him with a hotspot.
It's almost 5am. When I'm at my dads I can stay on as late as I want. And since I'm having trouble getting to sleep I thought why not post. So since I don't really have anything important to talk about I'll just rant for a while.
I found neo more than a year ago. A lot has changed since then. I remember joining neo out of shear bordom. All I would do online was youtube and Neopets and those were getting so boring.
At 1st on neo everything was hard. I wasn't good at grammer or computers. All I ever did was Roleplay. I never tlaked to anyone unless it was about the roleplay. I was 100% into my 1 roleplay. HM AnWL roleplay. I was Jessica and Todd. I had Jessica marry Rock. And Todd marry my neo friend harvest moon queens character aqua. It was a lot of fun. And I made some friends that I no longer tlak to.
When that roleplay started dying I started looking for new RPs. I ended up joining a whole bunch of RPs. A Poke Digi Rp. A Pokemon MD Rp Where I met Richie. A naruto RP which was a lot of fun. A few more I can't remember. Then I joined the Rune factory Roleplay which is so far my fav roleplay I've ever done I have Sky to thank for that. He made it a lot of fun. I still think of Faith My character and Eddy Skys Charater. I was so sad that we never got to end it.
But if we could have ended it I think I can imagen what it would have ended like.
Eddy was going to propose to Faith at the Ball. They would have gottne married. Had twins one boy named Will and one girl named Hope maybe. Faith and Eddy would sit up on the roof staring at the nigth Sky remembering that spring they met happily holding hands. Faiths brother owuld die but Eddy would help her stay strong. Jake would marry Kit and Sarah would visit often. They would all life happily ever after.
Or While exploring a cave Eddy would be fighting a monster boss Faith would run chasing after him. *They wouldn't be married yet* And to save the one they loved ether Eddy or Faith would die protecting the other. If Faith died Eddy would be crushed btu his brother would keep him strong. One day he migth move on and meet Rosetta and maybe get married. If Eddy died Faith would leave and go to find her brother.
Two very different endings to mine and Skys ruen factory story.
Since then I often use the name Faith or Fai with the last name Cloud. My characters now often have the bubbly personailty Faith from RFRP had.
After that RP I didn't join another one for a long time until I joined the Forces of Animal RP which I'm still in and having a blast rping with Sleepingninetails, Hydrid, Fox, and Jesu. I'm Fai on that RP a half cat girl.
I also made my own RP called Anima Chains based off of a story I was going to write. The main characters are Will a human, Rini a Bunny girl, Inu a do girl, And Neko a cat girl.
I think if the Rune factory RP starts up again I'll rejoin it as the same Faith. Only this time there will be no Eddy in the story. Cause I really don't think Sky will join or at least not as Eddy. He'd join as a Will.

That was my talk on Roleplays. Besides Roleplays I've Made true friends had amazing adventures with those friends. Drama, Tears, Love, Emotion, Fantasy, Unbelieveable things, Joy and laughter, Hard painful times, Wonderful joy filled times, Depressing sad times, Weird Unnormal times, Awkward moments, Me having lots of blond moments.

It's now almost 6am and after helping my baby bro get to bed 3 times I'm getting kind of tried.
I hope you've even joyed my rambling on.
I'll write soon!
Byebye!

How can people stand this?

How can they?

I just can't. I can't stand it when suspenseful, inspiring, funny, or just plain amazing books are turned into less-than-average movies... for example, The Tale of Desperaux. Everyone I talked to hated the movie. If someone here liked that movie, tell me why, please. Sorry if you did like it, though; I just can't stand humor being pushed too far or put in where it shouldn't be.

Speaking of that, I now officially super-hate The Fairly OddParents. That show just overuses punchlines. The episode-related head at the beginning is okay, but the repeated punchline they say at the end is horrible. "Ooh, that's not good for your colons!" "Nogs away!" "Seriously, you should get those fixed." I DON'T CARE WHAT GETS FIXED. Just take away that, the endless stupid jokes, and that irritating win kat the end and I'll only semi-hate that. I was only able to stand hearing it on my brother's TV because they repeated them (punchlines) less, but now, in the new year, plus in 2008, it is so obnoxious.

Bye bye fairies. I'm going over to the dark side. No, scratch that- I'm going over to the good side.

EDIT: If you see an image there above my post, ignore it; I'm on my Wii and can't get it out. I don't even know how it got there.

Ow *bleep*. My neck hurts like a bitch. I'll have to go lay down really soon.
It's been 10 days since my last blog post. I have been out and about, having lots of fun with my friends. Last we went out to the local shopping centre and had a walk around, then went back to y friends place and played lots of football with his new metal goal posts. It was.. almost orgasmic.
Most recently however, was Friday. We had a great day out at a local Golf Club, on their 19 hole, par 3 course. Suffice to say, I was last out of all of us. My most common phrase happened to be either "*bleep*!" or "I hate golf". Never the less, it was still great fun to be out with my mates.
With the amount of videos and pictures taken on the day, I am creating a DVD to give to my pallos for the day.
I'll probably create some exerts of the best bits to show you all later. Thanks for reading. ;)

Sorry for the sickly green colour. I forgot whilst posting. >_>

Oh, by the way, thanks Google for paying attention to my menstrual troubles. Hm, come to think of it, it's almost that time of the month.

I've been thinking of getting a new PC, especially after my uncle handed me a Best Buy gift card. I've been asking tech and hardware doods I know for their opinion, and I was pointed in the direction of this item. I'm not exactly going to go out and buy it tomorrow, so I'll be taking more time to research my options.

No, I don't plan to spend 6k on a computer, you pretentious PC nerds -- not that all PC nerds are pretentious, but seriously, some people need to take a chill pill. Does anyone have any pointers and suggestions on how NOT to get ripped off while looking for a decent PC at Best Buy? I don't plan on playing Crysis or anything, so I don't really need a BITCHIN' GAMING MACHINE... but I do like it when shit runs smoothly, and my Inspiron 9300 is just taking a beating from trying to run things.

Well, I think you get what I mean. I just want a good computer without having to sell my hymen.

Well, it's unfortunate that I have to say this.....but today my PS3 bit the dust. In the middle of playing Fallout 3 it just froze. Unfortunately that's actually kind of typical for Fallout 3, so I just restarted my PS3. When I went to go back into the game, it wasn't being recognized. I tried a few more discs including a PS2 game to no avail. My Blu-Ray drive is dead.

It's out of warranty so that's $149 down the drain I wasn't planning on spending. However, if I get MY PS3 back then it may be worth it since mine has backwards compatibility. It will still play games that are downloaded to my HDD, but can't say that there are any that excite me at this minute. Fallout 3 owned me. So much for finishing those quests this weekend. I didn't even get a chance to try out Mirror's Edge.

Guess now is my chance to catch up on some DS, PS2, and Wii games while I wait a month to get my shit back. I sure hope this doesn't happen every year otherwise Sony is going to have to include the $149 in their yearly cost in that nifty PR chart RabidChinaGirl found LMAO.

Note: The PS3 in the pic is NOT mine....just thought it was fitting for how I feel LMAO
