Sapphire Dragon's blog

I recently just put up my new graphics website in my profile.
It's not done yet, and it still has a default theme.
I know, it's a blogspot, but I can't find very good free hosting right now. The hosting site I used to use a lot became very greedy and just went to hell after that.
Anyways, one reason I set up the site is to earn a small amount of money for the site I currently co-own. I need $10 in total, and currently have 4 cents. I can't ask parents for money or anything, though.
When you go to the site in my profile, if you click the ads, you'd be doing wonders. Don't click one ad multiple times, though. Refresh the page and click another if you want to click more. Don't click too many in one hour or minute though, as it may also void the small amount money I receive from it. I'd say maybe 5 a minute, possibly 15 an hour. The ad service doesn't give me exact numbers.
Thanks if you clicked

So on Wednesday morning, me and my mom left to go on a 2 day trip to Las Vegas. Sure, 2 days doesn't seem like much, but I'm only like a 4 hour drive away from it.

Anyways, the main idea of the trip was to go to an ice skating rink. I'd never been ice skating before, so I thought it would be fun.
The first time i walked out onto the ice, I immediately fell. It was pretty frustrating at first, but after 2 laps around the rink I started to get more balanced. After about the 4th lap, I knew how to create my own momentum without using the wall.
During one fall, I hit my kneecap on the wall of the rink and then twisted the same leg around on the way down. I'm double-jointed, so it wasn't all too bad, and at the time it didn't hurt, but now it hurts like hell.
In total, I stayed about 2 and a half hours, made 7 laps around the rink, and fell about 5 times.
That night, I drove down the strip at ni

Also, I'm not going to post my new story, or post the ending to The Portal. At least not for a while.
First of all, I don't really have the time.
Second, if the same damn ordeal that happened with my last story happens with this one, I won't have the time to flame and/or beat the hell out the member who stole it.

Don't expect anything new from me for about 6-12 months.

Well, I'm still somewhat conflicted on the new story, so it's going to be delayed a bit longer. For how long, I can't quite say. It might be a week, might be forever.

Also, I just finished Half Life: Source and Portal on my Laptop with a laptop mouse. No little USB, wireless mouse or anything, just a laptop mouse. On HL:S, it wasn't too bad. On Portal, it was pretty much impossible, took me about 3 weeks. For HL:S, about 4 days.
After that, I completed HL2 on The Orange Box on my PS3 again. Can't say playing the first game made the second game make any more sense than what I picked up while playing it the first time.

Also, I'm trying to bribe my parents into buying Prototype for me. I can't get it on my own, as I usually would, as I'm not 17 yet, and it's M rated. And the cashier's here are *bleep* with asking for an ID for M rated games. I only got The Orange Box because it was T-M rated,

After a somewhat large ordeal with finding a good laptop, I finally settled with a Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5934 15.4" widescreen.



I has great specs. 3GB of RAM, a nice graphics card and a fast processor.
I'll be active a lot more now.

So I will go ahead and post the story.

But here's the deal. Because of the attempted theft of my last story, if anything is stolen from me, my stories, my graphics, anything. My avatar, sig, and markup, maybe even, I'll stop writing the story and never continue it.

Anyone screws this up and you mess it up for anyone that wants to read my stories.


I hope I got the point across this time.

I'll be leaving on Tuesday [5/26] for about a week.
I might have internet access, but the only electronic I'm bringing is my PSP. Because I put Custom Firmware [Thanks to the guys in the PSP forum for helping me with that] I had to downgrade, and no longer have a large on-screen keyboard. Now it's just 6 button keyboard, similar to a phone, so it takes ages to type.

Anyways, I'll be busy most of the week, and won't be online much anyways.
So don't expect any replies to private messages or anything while I'm gone.



SapphirEdit:: Nevermind, I upgraded to a newer CFW and have a full keyboard on my PSP.

First of all, I've started on the story, in a word processing program. My main concern about the story, though, is stealing. My last story was almost stolen, even though my writing style sucked on that one. I guess they just wand the storyline. Anyways, this story, as I've realized, seems to have the kind of storyline that someone might steal, make a mini CGI movie on YouTube or something, and steal all the credit. I mean, from what I've developed so far, i.e the whole storyline, might actually be movie material. It's cliche, it's violent, and it's futuristic. Perfect movie material.
So I'm not quite sure if I even want to release the story on Neo, after what happened last time.


On another note, my PS3 is back up. I now have an ethernet cable, so my internet isn't freaking out anymore. And before you ask, everyone in the UYA forum, yes, my Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal disk is, in fa
