I Guess That's Me . . .




You Are Flip Flops



You are laid back and very friendly.

Cheery and sunny in disposition, you usually have something to smile about.



Style is important to you, as long as you can stay casual.

It takes a lot to get you to dress up!



You are a loyal and true person, though you can be a bit of a flake.

You tend to "play hooky" and blow off responsibilities a lot more than most people.



You should live: By the beach



You should work: At a casual up and coming company

What?!?

Ok someone went really wacko here. It is quite possible that the person who wrote it is wrong, as it is the internet, but it's worth looking into. Either way, Wendy's is better than McDonald's, so I won't be needing to get food from the latter ever again.

Another Way To Read This

It is rather amusing if you read my blog, or any web page for that matter, here. Just put in the URL for my blog or any web page and choose which dialect. Have fun and remember, laughter is good medicine.

I Don't Exactly Know Why I Did This




You Are Kermit



Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.

You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.

Don't worry - everyone know's it's not easy being green.

Just remember, time's fun when you're having flies!

YESS!!! . . . or not?

I finally did it! I beat Lord of the Rings: Return of the King for gamecube in both 1-player and 2-player modes! It is a great game which took a while to beat (though not as long as many others), but now it is becoming just a tad (ok, maybe more than a tad) BORING. I can't believe I am getting bored of a video game, but I realized that now that most of the characters are fully upgraded there's not much left to do. Just redoing levels I've already beaten, and since I know what to do, it's no more than running around killing lots of orcs and uruk-hai. It is still a great game, however, so I can just switch to another one for a while (or get a new one :) and come back to it later. That's the good thing about it. I promised myself I wouldn't buy a new game unless I beat one of the ones I have right now, so now I can buy a new one!

Depressants

I am ready for spring with its warm weather; perfect for playing sports outside! I was not ready for it to snow on the first day of spring (today) after a week of warm weather. However, I try not to complain about things I can't change and just make the best of them.
There are things that I can change, though, like math scores. I am on a homeschool high school math team, and have been one of the best freshmen on the team. On the weekly homework assignments I usually score 32-36 out of 40. But now that we have started preparing for the state competition (we beat the 2nd place regional team by doubling their score, 794 to 397) the tests are supposed to be harder, so my scores have gone down to around 30. That isn't bad, but almost all of the other freshmen are scoring higher than me now, with scores in the upper 30's. I guess I'll just have to step up on my algebra review so I can take first place at state, which is not such a big issue as the team taking first, but it is very nice to have (all my siblings got first places at state).

P.S. It's strange how this week, being spring break, seems to have been busier than a normal school week. I wish I just had some time to relax and not have to think about duties.

Cybernations

There's a free game out there on the web called cybernations, which I play and recommend to anyone who reads my blog. It is a game that can take a minimum of 5-10 minutes a day, but you can spend more time on it if you are active or leading in an alliance. You basically create a nation in the real world wherever you want and manage it every day (i.e. collect taxes, pay bills, respond to events, etc.). It's fun, and even better, free! You can sign up at http://www.cybernations.net and get started. If you create a nation, be sure to join my alliance, the NDAA. Log into our forums at http://z11.invisionfree.com/ndaa/index.php and sign up, and be sure to put Simia The Crazy as your recruiter. Have fun!
