Scary video games...

Yeah that's right I have nothing better to do on this snow day (by the way, school now ends on June 3rd, sigh) than talk about a stupid video game story between my brother and I.

Okay, I have a low tolerance for scary video games (movies I can handle just fine), so I have no idea what i was thinking when i bought the game Dead Space. I guess I figured I could watch Simon play it or something while I sat at a good distance away from the screen with the lights on and the volume low.

I actually did cave in and play the first five-ten minutes of it and then I just kind of handed it off to Simon after I ran out of ammo shooting the monster thing that was trying to kill me and had to resort to cutting the thing's head off (ps I am a huge ammo waster in video games). That and the messages on the walls telling me to "Cut off the limbs" written in blood with falty lighting and creepy background music was getting to me.

What i didn't realise though, was that Simon also cannot play scary video games very well...I think we get it from mom... but he took the controller anyway and he got pretty far. I gave him advice and pointers and yelled at him to turn around and all that crap while I was sitting in the second seat (I'm like Navi from LoZ, only useful...at times).

So he was doing really good until we came across this bent hallway after exiting this weird experiment room with what looked like babies floating in some kind of liquid (they sneak attack you by the way). Once you step into the hallway, the lights blow out and they start to flicker and the music that was playing just a second ago just stops. Instead its replaced by this constant thud, thud, thud. I'm telling you it sounded exactly like the sound of heavy boots on a metal floor, which was something bad in this game, because your character is the only one that makes that sound.

Simon just stopped right there at the entrance to the hall and we just kind of look at eachother while the thudding keeps going. I thought that whatever was walking would turn the corner eventually and just attack him, but after a few seconds of just standing there, nothing happened and the thuds kept going. So I was like, "Just go down the hall. If something is coming, meet it halfway...get it over with." (When we're playing video games together is probably the only time Simon actually takes my advice, because he trusts my strategic skills or something like that, my ability to plan ahead) So he does what I tell him to and walks slowly down the hall and the thudding gets louder and louder. At this point we're both kind of shivering in anticipation, a trait we share when it comes to this stuff.

He turned the bend in the hall and there is an opening to another room with this shadow kind of leaning through the doorway, moving back and forth in time with the thuds. Simon stopped in the hall again and we just waited for the shadow to come closer or soemthing. But it didn't move and it made me confused. I said, "It's not coming toward you, just go to it." What could this thing be? Was it good or bad?

Well we found out when Simon inched towards the doorway and stopped, the game wouldn't let him move at the moment because the camera had just zoomed in on the thing making the thuds. Turns out it was someone from the original crew, banging their head off a metal wall repeatedly. There was blood everywhere and me and Simon just kind of froze when we saw the guy. When the game moved your character forward the guy bangs his head off the wall really hard and blood spatters everywhere and then he just slips to the floor, dead.

Simon and me: O.O

It wasn't so much of a scary moment as a well timed tension filled moment that just made you think, "What...the...F@$k? Holy S!%t. What is wrong with this place!?"
Simon just dropped the controller and switched the game off while I just sat there. And he says, "Yeah, I think I'm done for the day."

Guess what? We're not even halfway through the game yet. And I heard there was another moment like that later on with a girl cutting up this guy that was still alive with a butcher knife and when you come into the room she looks over at you and smiles like you're her savior or something, and then she cuts her throat right in front of you.
Oh my...

Checkin the e-mail

Alrighty I need u all to check ur e-mails (like strongbad) for the first chapter of ma new story. Wifey it went to both of urs, malvey it didn't go to suckmyhotpocket.

Bye!

Rent!

So this is not nearly as interesting as the post below this but hey... we can't all be as cool as Shelby! :) So anyway I'm going to see Rent tonight after that Europe meeting thing and I'm gonna see it again with Alice!! Man do I love that movie! I was just wondering, cause im curious like that.. if anyone else was planning on going to the college to see it this weekend? Does anyone know any of the people in it? Well bell's about to ring so loves you all!

Patience...

It's like a conversation, where no-one stops to breathe
Is it my imagination, or did God already leave the table?
Such destruction, and pure white castles in the sand
No time for introduction
With all that money changing hands
And the satellite says, "Take a look at all we have"
But the old man says,"You want my family, for your liberty...I can't do that."
Look into the eyes of any patient man
Whether they be amber, green or blue,
There's a piece of God staring back at you
But they see our children, and the old folk fend for themselves
They see our broken women
On imaginary shelves
But the satellite says, "Won't you people look at all we have?
Don't you want it?
Can't you see the things that you lack?"
Children in his arms, he turns his back.

Question Sunday?!?

So today I got bored and was thinking. 'I really would like to get into photography'. Well today I went out and took some pictures of things, and some of them I really like. I was thinking of making another blog for my photos, to share, with you guys.
What do you think? Good idea, or not?


I'm hoping this summer, when I get a job, that I can get a good camera, and well you know, start working. I might talk to Batman's mommy, about it, and have her help me out some.

Anyways, that's all I wanted to discuss.

Oh here is a sample. :]

Haha E-mail!

Haha this is sweet!  I set this up so that I can just shoot an e-mail out to the blog (sort of) and it'll post it for me!  It's is a feat of epic porportions!
Haha ok so now i'm going to let your ead willie's post and shut up. =P
 
Btw heres' my sig for those of u that never get e-mails from me:
Smile, becasue life's to short to not have fun.  And dang it, LAUGH!
"Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile."

Yay!!!

I got Superior with Invitation in all of my catagories(and this was my first year!!)  crap,none of u probably know what im talking about....
....... ummmmmm we have a thing called Fine Arts( its like a christian talent competition that has like a whole bunch of different catagories like art, and instrumental and vocal solo and such)  I went in it for drum solo, 2-d art, and our group did a skit. There is 3 judges in each catagory, and each one gives u a score. then all of there scores add up and they give you a certificate that says fair, good, great, excellent, or superior with Invitation(which is the only one that puts u through to districts) then there are levels: sectionals, districts, states, and nationals. So im only through sectionals but im still really happy!!!!! Apperently like half the judges were rockin out to my drum solo and when i got done like the whole room seemed to explode with claps and whistling and hollers(which really didnt happen for anyone else so i guess i must have done really good)fffeeetttuuusss

which one?

hey guys. I was just wondering which poem I should post this week, because I have two. I have this serious one and then I have this funny one. I looked at the english blog and saw Hannah and faith posted serious ones, so maybe I should too, or maybe I should break the ice with some funny crap. I don't know.

I mean, cause one poem is deep and stuff like my last one, and the other is about as transparent as clean glass...

I'm really bored right now in study hall and this is about all I can do... so yeah...

Monday

Ok so here is moday's intinerary:

1:00- Arrive for filming
1:20- Pile into the "jeep"
1:30- Arrive to film "Battle of the Bulge"
2:00- Go and film "Operation Overlord"
2:45- Go and film "HItler's sucide"
3:10- Film VEday
3:20- Pile into the "jeep"
3:30- Film all the island scenes in the greenhouse
4:20- Pile into the "jeep"
4:30- Go and film "OMG Beach"
5:00- Film Willie randomly screaming for PH
5:05- Pile into the "jeep"
5:10- Arrive at Sarah's house
5:15- Film the cadence scene somewhere
We already said we would do it as a blooper.. we are doing it
5:30- Film anything we forgot/hang out

Ok and here's some vital info:

1. We need to at least attempt to look military. So wear some camo or at least som form of dark green. Perferably camo.. but not hunting camo. I'll be wearing my underarmor and camo pants. Remember, you can take your coat off to film, and then put it back on. That's what i'm doing.
2. YOU NEED TO DRESS WARM!!! I tried to space the itinerary so taht we will have alternating warm and cold filmings, but that doesn't excuse you from wearing a WARM coat, gloves, and socks (yes i'm talking to you Willie). Oh, and don't forget hats!!! Gosh I feel like a mother now thanks a lot guys!

Alrighty that's all I've got. If we do this as planned we will have extra time at the end. If we goof off, then we won't and we'll be working for a long time.

Fail

So tomorrow we're filming ...without Jaz.... then we're filming on Monday...
Okay but where are we gonna get all the stuff we need? I mean we need all the time to film, then all the time to edit (mainly Alice with me helping) and we need to get all the stuff together that we need to film. And this is all due Tuesday...
I predict we fail.
As Alice put it today in Art -we assembled together (besides Jaz) the biggest and worst group of procrastinators in our school to do this project. Also the ones most likely to goof off and fight with each other, I know, I know. Mostly me and Nancy and then Jaz and well pretty much David, Willie and Alice but....
Maybe I'm just paranoid, I mean Vaughn did say that we only needed to show something, that we had at least started it if not done and we're not presenting until Thurs. or Friday so... fingers crossed!?

Soooooooo
