Grrr, Anger.

   I don't usually complain a lot. I don't like to complain. But sometimes, things just really piss me off. Like the fact that the plug-in that I've always used for my laptop has suddenly started giving me problems. It's in an awkward place, so I have to use a three way connector-y piece, as my bed is pushed up against the wall, so there is barely any room to actually plug the cord in on a good day. But I came down to write my post, and when I plugged my laptop in, nothing happened. No charge light, no increase in screen brightness, just the universe laughing at me. And of course there is no room for my hand to fit there,so I can't even see what the problem is. I basically freaked out, Deidra-tantrum style. Yupp.

   Anyway, this past week I have been doing a Blog Every Day in December on my personal blog, and it has been going pretty well. I missed one day because I had a giant essay to work on, but that is all done and over with, so it's all good now. That was basically the only homework I've had all week, so it's been really nice and relaxing. I did some baking, to prepare for Christmas.

   I remember watching the Power Rangers when I was younger. I don't remember too much, but I think I also liked the red best, because it's the only one I have a clear memory of. It was most likely blue though, since blue has always been my favourite colour, but whatever. I know for a fact that it wasn't pink, since I've always hated pink. I have recently gotten back into Pokémon, though I like to believe that I never got out of it. Last year I finally went back and really beat my Yellow version on my GameBoy, including completing the Pokédex. Honestly, I think my childhood was Pokémon. It is where most of my childhood memories come from.

   I hope that today was special for you, Katie. Happy Birthday! I must say, it's getting difficult finding different and cool images of cupcakes. Especially ones that reflect the person to whom I am 'giving' them too. And without making myself too humgry for cupcakes. This one only followed one of those criteria. It is so colourful and pretty, and it reminded me of your posts. They brighten up the blog each week. Of course, it looks delicious. If only it wasn't a cyber cupcake, I would really send you one, and have one myself. Hope the day was great!

   Anywho, I must still post on my blog, and it is getting late, so I will go now. Don't forget to be awesome!

Nostalgia

   My week has been filled with nostalgia, partly since my niece Jemma is here visiting, and partly because I have been playing a great of Pokémon. It has all been a lot fun, but also very tiring. I have been taking afternoon naps with Jemma, since I have been getting up much earlier to babysit her, as my parents are working. I have also been forced to watch children's television shows once again, and I think I may be going slowly insane. A person can only take so much.

   I recently achieved a goal of mine that I have been working on for a long time. I completed the Pokédex on my Yellow Version game pack. I have been slowly working on it since around March or April. I caught all 151 Pokémon, including Mew using the glitch/cheat. Generation I is always my favourite, and will always be what I consider 'true' Pokémon. My favourite Pokémon are Squirtle, Lapras, and Eevee. What are your favourites?
   I have never really thought of any of the legendaries as favourites, because I thought it was cliché that people always chose them as their favourites or filled their 'dream parties' with them, but Mew was always my favourite of that type. Mostly because it was so cute, and it was very powerful in the movie.
   I think I will start a generation II game soon, and try to complete that game's Pokédex as well. It was a fun challenge, even though you don't really get anything out of it. Professor Oak just congratulates you, and the game designers show you a certificate that says that you completed the Dex.

   I know exactly what you mean about procrastination, Kayla. Whenever there is something important that needs to be done, I suddenly think of dozens of fun things that I want to do, but when I have time to relax, I can't think of anything, and the ideas that I thought were fun just seem boring. Also, you should show us how your sunflowers are coming along.
   Adam, I don't really listen to music all that much, especially in the summer. I listen to most of my music in the winter, during the long bus rides too and from school. I also get up pretty early in the morning for school, so I usually end up sleeping on my bus rides as well. Music is amazing, and I love it, but it isn't something that I really think about too often. Furthermore, zebras.
   Katie, I didn't  know that you didn't have Mars Bars in the U.S. That's just depressing! Mars Bars are great. Well, they're alright. Do you have like, a substitute chocolate bar that we Canadians don't have to make up for it? Also, I usually always keep my room clean (I'm kind of a neat freak), so it always makes me chuckle when people say it takes them a long time to clean their rooms. Even the spring cleaning only takes me an hour or two.
   Your new blog looks really great Kate. I am looking forward to reading more from you. Well, more that isn't a.W.o.A related. I don't really do scrapbooking, because I like to look at the things I collect. I do however have a Wall of Stuff that is full of art and other things, and a cork board with cards and stuff. I will show you another time.
   I don't really have a favourite food, Kira, because like you, I think that food is just good. I'm not picky, and I'll try just about anything, to a certain extent. I don't I could ever be a vegetarian though. I can understand the grounds for it, but I enjoy meat. I would like to try it sometime in the future, just to see how I would do with it. I do have a favourite drink though, and that would be iced tea.
   Campion, I have never watched any of the Transformers movies, and I do not really intend to watch them. They are just not the type of movie that I like.

   Anywho, this has been a really long week, and it isn't even over yet. So don't forget to be awesome, and Poké-on!
