Summer 2008: the Story so far...

Hey hey hey! This old blog must be dusty, hein?
WOW. So many things happened -- and of course -tehehehe- are happening this summer.
I've been learning how to drive, since I now have I got my permit. Very cool. I've been cooking alot - been learning how to make and been making pommes frites, pizza, curries. I've been doing not much for my webpage, but some. I went to two exciting places with my dad: Antwerp, Belgium and Telluride, Colorado! I've been watching the Beijing Olympics, of course. Watching Saturday morning cartoons has been a must-do on Saturday mornings. I'm also an intern for a community center, which is a fun job. Also have been playing Wii, of course. Hanging out with new friends. Et cetera.

In Europe, I actually went to three places, in this order -- Antwerpen, BE > Amsterdam, NL > Brussels, BE. In Antwerpen and Amsterdam, I learned Dutch, which is spoken by 55% of Belgians. French is spoken by about 45%. It's a beautiful country. Lots of chocolate, churches, architecture, and comics there. Belgium is actually the most widely-proven birth place of les pommes frites ( 'cuz calling them "french-fried potatoes" is for silly americans). The frites are the best there. The way they make them there is that they fry them twice and cut them a bit more thick than in America. They also like 'em with mayonaise, which is tastier than it sounds.

What else?

This summer, I've also been working as an intern at a community center. A non-pay job, but it's very cool: get to meet new people, made a cool poster for them with school mascots, and even go to local concerts with them.

Also, finally, I made a new cartoon. Here she be!

Also jack has a new blog about living in a new place. Here's the link: here!

Anyways, I'll be leaving. I'm watching the Olympics, now. Bye!!

NEYM 2007: Swimming

This week, I'm staying @ Bryant College in R.I. for New England Yearly (Quaker) Meeting 2006. I'm having quite a good time so far. It just begun!
There's many good things for me already. I finally had a Bryant College golf cart ride. I've been giving away plush toys to nice people. Also I've gotten to meet some of my old friends. The list goes on. Mmmm... I like the rain I see outside alot! :3
But anyways, I'm grumpy @ the moment, since I went to the swimming pool and learned that Pool Basketball is a violent sport... again. You see, I tend to actually want to play it, but I always forget that someone pinches me, slaps me, or bounces the ball on my head every single $#&@ time.
When the ball bounced off my head, I got extremely grumpy and stomped out of the pool. I got dressed, and then told the pool guard that some dude "hit me on the head with a ball." The pool guard explained to me that it wasn't their fault and that Pool Basketball is a very violent sport. I could do nothing but realize she was right.
I decided to watch T.V. outside the pool until I'd feel better. And when I mean "feel better," I don't mean "yey, i'm happy." What I really mean is, "awgh, who cares? This show sucks! I'm gonna go do something else!" *stomp stomp stomp. turns off TV. stomp stomp stomp.*
Well, now that I've written this blog post, I feel alot better. Yes.
-------------------------
I feel like posting my semi-latest cartoon, GHEG.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Recently, I had a nice vacation is the West Coast. I found myself at both the Google and Pixar HQs. Also, I climbed a part of Mt. Rainier in WA!

Well, anywaze. I thought I'd make a blogpost. I have a wonderful summer job right now. I'm working as a website design "professori" for a a close family friend of mine. I've already got $30 from 5 hours total! (Two 2-hr sessions, one 1-hr.)

My tablet has been broken for a while -- @ least the tablet pen. The tablet pen's being repaired right now; so for now, I've got a tablet being lent to me.
------------------------------------------------------------
Anyways. I'm looking very much forward to the THIRD SUPER SMASH BROS. COMING OUT ON DECEMBER 3RD! It'll be a wonderfull xMas present!
A few new characters have been confirmed: Solid Snake, Meta Knight, Zero Suit Samus, Pit from Kid Icarus, Wario (FTW!!), and...


This guy. He appeared in this super creepy update on the Smash Bro Website. I suspect he's either a final boss character, a secret character, or an unplayable character.
Where's this character from? He looks a bit MegaMan-y.
I'd like to know what you commenters think.

ALMOST THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR '07 !!!1111

Yo! I'm having such a wonderful life right now! Might you ask why? Well, it's the almost of the school year! MY FIRST YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL IS NEARLY OVAH! This might have been, by far, the best school year i've had since 4th or 7th grade, man. Also what might have help was knowing how to avoid regret -- gratitude and recognition has made my life SO much easier!!
***********************************
So many things happened recently!!! A few weekends ago, I had my first DATE! I made myself a HERO by SAVING several Japanese language BOOKS from getting thrown in the TRASH!
I have nothing to regret about FRIDAY OF JUNE FIRST!! This Friday was the Bicentennial of ARLINGTON and a graduation dinner @ my house for my cousin LISA!!111 At the PARTY, I got to show a cousin how to play the Wii, made great jokes, and saw the Bincentennial fireworks!! Besides the party, I got to give Mr. Lunch, my pug, an epic dog-WALK. Along with many other things, yesterday was another friend's graduation, hence a PARTY in my SCHOOL HOMEROOM!
***************************************
Oh, MAN! I'm doing so well with my YouTube account right now. This morning of Saturday, June 2nd, I was rated the 90th most viewed comedian today! And that's out of 100 comedians! This might be because of an extra-popular video of mine that I published: Jack's Batmobile! 245 views FTW!!11
Here's the vid:



*******************************************************
I'm rolling on with my l8est flash cartoon, also. I bet that it will be done within this month. There's a single preview picture on my front page of my website. I know, th@ sounds like a bit of a gyp, giving you a single preview picture out of many, but you'll see. It's gonna be big! And have a wierd name!

To end this magnificent post, I'd like to post a great poèm of mine:

*********************************************

Seminar @ Piattini

In today’s Class in a Glass –

such intensive affairs –

we learn how to drink this

series of four-course wine dinners.

Zinfandel –

it doesn’t age well.

(a word to the small bladder:

opt for a chair,

but not a banquETTE,

for we are at the end of a three-hour banquET.)

I will remind my self

to swirl my wine glass in a quarter’s circle.

Crookes confronted: “through an appetizer,

give barbecue a nifty Italian makeover.”

There’s the teacher’s pet. Here’s the class clown:

Dom Pérignon, with a clunk,

finds herself apologizing: “I’m getting drunk.”

Au revoir!
