Historical research in a nutshell.

Well recently I have come to the realization that I am going to be fifteen years of age in a matter of weeks and one of the things that I want more than anything is a new set of colonial clothing for re-enacting purposes. This is an intensive process that should not be taken lightly...  Basically you have to pick a persona, I have adopted a drummer for the continental army.  so you then look for things that your person would wear through first person or secondary sources. the final step is finding a place that makes the exact clothes you need, or learn to sew.  I have my new clothes and this weekend I will post something along the lines of.. "Dressing the colonial man"... other than that I really haven't done much worth blogging.  More will come though, I promise!

cell phones suck

Well 2 weeks ago at the beach I lost mine, gues where it was... in a bowl of water. nuff said.. Im pissed

HOLY @#%* it's 2012 already

Hi, wow I guess I should sum up the holidays and my school vacation.  Nah, remember I'm too much of a hipster to do that.... Okay maybe ths one time I'll conform to the scocial norm:

Halloween- Didn't happen, CT cancelled it because it snowed in October but I did miss school the entire week, it was a trade off.  I went to Atlanta  Georgia it was cool, I found my new love frozen yogurt. luckily theres a year round Yogurt Madness up here.. I can fill my cravings. 

Dia De Los Muertos- I didn't celebrate it, the one time I did and ate a sugar skull I wanted to die...

Thanksgiving- F-O-O-D, nough said.  I'll go on don't worry, the family came over and we ate.  we had turkey, pasta, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potato cassurole, I'm sure there was more but I don't want to think about it anymore.

Sol invictus- (christmas) according to the bible, Jesus was actually born in March (no wonder I'm so saintly) so we were ctually celebrating the old pagan sun holiday, sol invictus.  your welcome for that tid-bit.  eh...I got a week off of shool needless to say I got some well deserved rest...

New Year- It's a big shiny ball...yep.  it was my once a year glass of sparkling grape juice, and I loved it (note to self--CONCORD GRAPES) the white ones taste lik ca-ca. 

Almost a dragoon captain... in my fat dreams

Well today in bio while I should have been paying attention to my teacher (sorry Mrs. L) I was fantasizing about this weekend a camp out at the homestead with friends and mock battles... I know I'm probably the biggest loser on the face of the earth...  but anyway I had to question what I was going to wear to said mock battle and this is what I've got so far:

from the bottom up:  
                                    >tall black rubber rain boots.
                                    >red and black striped pirate stockings
                                    >my casual work jeans
                                    >18th century workshirt (puffy sleeved pirate shirt)
                                    >Vietnam war styled jacket.. (casual dress gone military)
                                    >an almost dragoon hat (which I'll take pics of the making of)

Other accessories include a wooden musket, pistols, and sword.  White leather gloves and sword belt.   I'm pumped so HA!

What if.....

What if I told you that I am currently blogging from my mobile device? What if I told you you could too? Well as it turned out my blog will pretty much format itself to any iPhone or Android smart phone. What if I told you my new plan to get hits to my blog? Well I I'm going to go to the apple store and open my blog on their iPhones,iPads,and iPods so that way when people open it they see the mobile formatting and I get a hit. Well wish me luck good night bloggee's 

hey, wasup, F--- the world.

So a lot has happened since my last post on the eighteenth of July, I went to Seattle, I started ninth grade, I actually picked up at Hale again; but whatever I digress....   The true purpose of this blog post was for me to share my real world experience on something that a lot of teens go through; peer pressure.

So today I had to walk home from school and I figured the most direct route would be through the local woods, Wintergreen woods (which is actually 95% percent oak) so I'm walking and I get about twenty yards from the wood's entrance, in the woods there was his group of upper class men smoking they pretty much were un-avoidable unless I wanted to walk through the  woods and whatever lurks under the leaves.  So I stayed on path listening to the Beatles I am the Walrus and one of the guys said to me "hey, you wanna mess around" his remark didn't really register at first so I took my right earbud out and said "huh, watcha say?" his reply left a shiver in my spine for the rest of my walk home, what had hit me so hard was when he reiterated himself and said "do you wanna mess around with pot?".  I stopped and thought for  moment I did just have a shitty phone call with my dad, I am stressed out between hale, my family, school but then the thought occurred to me what would my family think? What kind of hypocritical parent would I be preaching to my child not to take peer pressure or do drugs when I could have? in the end I just told them "Nah you guys, that shits whack, trust me" by doing this I come across as knowing what I'm talking about, and it sounds like I had gotten into trouble with is before, I left a lot unsaid.  and thats what you really have to do just keep your head down and be vague enough but at the same time profound enough to make a statement and leave the masses guessing.


Thats my story for today, I promise to update at some point...

IT'S BEEN FOREVER!!!!!!! IIIIIKKKKKK

I completely understand that I haven't updated in like forever but I spent a week in Rhode Island and alot happened.  I'm not going into full detail.. but lets just say I screwed up, I fell, and I got back up and fixed the mess I made... I am also in need of a new cell phone, I lost mine and got  it back in a bowl of water so it is pretty screwed up.  and I have to live with it until Novemer until I'm entitled to an upgrade...  It pisses me off that I can get an upgrade on an arbitrary day but not when I need it.  Alas life goes on. 

happy 235th birthday America

So I found a bit of irony in my day today, I ended up drawing British captain Banastre Tarleton on the fourth of july.... if its not pure irony I don't know what is.  Now I'm going on the assumption the rest of the world fan girls and obsesses over him like I do.  He was a british dragoon over here in America during the revolution.  So I'd figured I'd upload it.....

I make blog fish?!?!?!?!

okay I know I just posted like maybe five minutes ago, but now you have a job! scroll to the bottom and click on the fish box to feed them! I made a fishy blog!!!

I'm sooo sorry for not uploading in like for ever!

I'm sorry, I've actually been busy since the last day of school.  Heres what's coming in the future of my blog:

>French  bread review
>Possibly a video
>My volunteering schedule
>YU-GI-OH coming back to haunt me
>Mobile formatting!!!!

I know this was quick and a pathetic excuse for a blog post.  so I leave with a popular viral video:

Just watch it.... and laugh!

High meadows

I went to the swim club out in Cheshire CT called High Meadows.  I love it there,  I went horseback riding and it was amazing, the horse I rode was so well behaved......Other than compulsive eating.  I did a lot more yesterday but it wasn't near as exciting.  Oh yeah, tomorrow is my last day of middle school!!!! Oh god I'm going to be a high schooler next year.....ughhhhhh.  So that is really about all I wanted to get across today just so I can have my update every 2 days or so.


bye

What do I do?

I'm at home and it's like 10:57, I graduated this morning. Now I don't know what to do, Oh No a TV storm warning! without school, I'm lost and the world is big and scary!!!

Hey you guys, I'm a graduate of the eighth grade and I just left after the ceremony which was all of an hour and a half.  So yeah I'm chillin out with comedy central and I have a reader question:

"If  you had a friend that wanted to know something but you didn't want them to know because they will never stop talking about it what should you do?"

Wow deep, just leave an answer in the comments and in a future post I'll put up some of my top picks.

Linen pants and a MAC!!!!!

So tomorrow I graduate from the eighth grade!!! I went shopping today for an outfit to wear to my graduation what do I come up with....... A pale blue "v" neck shirt a button down shirt to go over a summer blazer and to top it off (drumroll please) a pair of linen pants.  I love them they're so freaking  soft its amazing.

Yesterday I bought a computer not just a computer a power mac G5 I currently have it hooked up to the most ghetto setup ever! but I digress, My cousin Gene who is a computer genius basically gave it to me and I am making monthly payments until I pay off the $400 that it cost me.

In other other news today is my cousin's birthday you may know her as my one follower on this blog?
but yeah she's 17!!!! aaaahhhhh I remember when we were all under 10 arguing about who got to be who in a make believe game of avatar!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIREI, SONIA, ENNIN, or anything else you've been named over the years.  ;)

The co-leader in cuffs?!?!?!

As you all should know I am a revolutionary war reenactor and I volunteer at the Nathan Hale Homestead, well today something interesting happened.....I got made the co-leader of the "young friends of hale" or volunteer program.  So yeah then I got put in eighteenth century handcuffs by a british officer, then I screamed so patriotic hoo-hah at him.  I got splashed in the face with water and laughed at.  I was always one step ahead though, I had my wing man....or kid considering hes in 5th grade take the british flag and run with it, thus buying me time and my new found friends at the pottery tent <3's you guys!!!!

I am a rollercoaster person!!!!!

I went to six flags on friday and I discovered something about myself, I actually like to ride rollercoasters.  Of course one wouldn't say I had an easy transition into rollercoaster life (ie) the BIZZARO coaster was the first ride I went on......From the Two hundred twelve foot drop I went straight to BATMAN. Five upsidedown loops, I wanted to die but waiting in line for BIZZARO I learned that the scarriest part of the rollercoaster is in fact waiting in line.  Once I sit down and it starts to move I'm fine I'd go on it again and again.  So the moral of the story is if you are ever scared of something, confront it and look it in the face and tell it to "suck it"!  It'll be okay.  and remember it's a rollercoaster its safe........sorta.......muahahahahahaha Oh yeah HELLO WORLD!!! I am in fact alive and I have so much to blog, I guess you'll have to come back to find out.

Memorial Day Cheer!

Well with the long weekend coming to a close, I'd figured I should upload something describing my weekend...
First I had a half a school day on Friday but I left even earlier I left at 11:45 for an orthodontist appointment hence the Facebook profile change...I'll upload it later.  On Saturday I marched the Webb Deane Stevens museum along in our local parade, and the rest of the day I spent at a historical reenactment event with the fifth Connecticut regiment, continental line.  I got to drum a slow march around from the museum parking lot to the old first church Where the fifth had a small ceremony for their new unit flag, And back to the museum to take down the American flag.  Sunday I helped out in the process of painting the cement on our house.  And I slept part of the day, As for today I downloaded Angry Birds from Google chrome And Then I went shopping for summer and I went to the book store, where I got Kathy Griffin's Official book club selection memoir.  And now I'm blogging to you.....All in All it was a good weekend.  The best part of all is June starts this week which means school is almost over!!!!!

Whats up to my cup?

I've had it with glee's new directions nameing their original songs after random objects.  My headband, My cup, Trouty mouth.  Its sickening thats what it is.  I can't wait to get a mac, I've had it with viruses and hell in a computer.  HP IS CRAP!  ALL MODELS, SOFTWARE, AND EVERYTHING ELSE!!!!!!! Mac's where its at and when I get one I will die inside from happieness.  On to a new subject In my quest to buy a sixteen hundred dollar computer, I think I'm going to Moneitize this blog, but I need you to help me spread this blog, spread it to friends, family, local buisnesses, ect.  I'm going to try but I can't do it alone.....SPREAD IT!

These and many more have been a viral hit for years, but my question is what are the good pickups? the ones that don't make you crap yourself laughing? are there any? My point exactly, people just don't respond the same way to relationships, they aren't treated for what they are, like the human race the pickup line has evolved so much and become so over rated that no one cares anymore.  On this topic, does anybody know good pickups? I mean good like the 19 above, like funny ones? by the wathese came from a video on youtube by Mickeii, funny as hell <3's to you.  oh and before I forget again,
Double dream hands:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm7yAWpX1Mc

DOUBLE DREAM HANDS!

I swear to god if you've never seen this video......you're shameful, it is probably the wierdest video you will ever see.  So check it out, in other news I have found and tracked the apple i-phone theme song and I listen to it non-stop the song it really called perfect timing by orba squara and its easy, and makes me think of apple.  Speaking of apple I have plans to earn money so I can leave behind windows permenantly.  the notebook I intend to buy in a 13" MacBook air the 2011 version.....at widest .68" at its thinnest its an astonishing .11" the damn thing only weighs 2.9 pounds!!! as little as it is the price is pretty large **cough, cough** $1600 **cough, cough** what? I didn't say anything...... But I have a plan that will take me most of the summer and september, thats the wost case scenario.  The best case scenario is mid august or late july! I am now starting to realize that blogging is kinda like talking to yourself, but not well only if no one reads it. But as I have made it pretty clear I do know how many people see my page every week.  I didn't set it to daily because weekly is a larger number......its pretty pathetic, I know.

The honey badger don't care

If you aren't one of the 7,523,974 people who have seen the honey badger video on youtube, WATCH IT! it was funny and factual at the same time, I even dedicated my favebook profile to these marvolous creatures.  The video was brought to my attention by ijustine and she recomended it so I checked it out.  I have instructed my parents to refer to me as the honey badger and when I speak in third person, I call my self the honey badger.  So what's been up with you guys?  I know, it has in fact been a while since I've posted but I've been busy.  If you want to see te honey badger, with original narration by randall heres the link:    http://www.youtube.com/user/czg123#p/c/2A9D6BFCC78EDB71/0/4r7wHMg5Yjg it'll take you straight to the channel of czg123, a mad genius.
