Bridge to Terabithia
Wow. I just finished watching Bridge to Terabithia. I don’t know how to feel about it.
I mean, the movie got me thinking. I’m really thankful for the friends I have, and once they’re gone, I’ll miss them greatly. I should really enjoy the amount of time I have with them right now, for if we part ways one day, chances are, we’ll never meet again.
What’s going to hurt even worse is to find out a friend of yours has died. Can you imagine having someone so close to you fade away? Then, you’ll have to cope with them not being there, and it’s hard to let go of the good times.
Of course you’d want to remember them, but you’d also want to forget about them. It’s one of those bittersweet things to life, right?
I probably don’t know what I’m talking about. Maybe I just got a little “creative?”
Go Speed Racer Go!

The other day, I saw Speed Racer at the local AMC. Let me tell you, it was amazing. The visuals were so colorful, bright and trippy! What makes it even better was that I was pretty baked during the movie.
Even though I missed like, the first 20-50 minutes of the movie, I managed to at least understand the plot. Apparently, Speed wants to destroy this unfair, “fixed” racing that’s going on. Along with him on this little mission were Racer-X and a few others.
Like in the original, Racer-X is, of course, Speed’s brother. A minor adjustment was that his suit didn’t resemble the Mach 5, which, in my opinion, was for the better.
Overall, the movie was good, especially when baked. I just sat there, staring at the race scenes, which were a mix between reality and Anime. That made me trip my balls of, of course.
Well, I hope you guys have as much fun watching as I did. ;b
Six Flags!

I pretty much got a day off from school today. My school has these “reward field-trips” at the end of the school year for the kids who are passing and exhibit good behavior. Apparently, I managed to fit into those eligibility requirements. The 6th graders got to go to an arcade called Adventure Landing, which is lame; the 7th graders got to go to a Renaissance festival called Scarborough Faire, which is pretty cool; and the 8th graders go to Six Flags!
We were so fortunate to arrive there on the buses before Six Flags would open! Everyone there stood at the gates, anticipating to run in. My group consisted of Tiffany, Nancy, Mary, Jacob and I. At the Six Flags we went to, there was a new ride called the Tony Hawk’s Big Spin, so we wanted to be the first ones to ride that. Fortunately, we did.
The whole morning just kicked ass because a lot of the roller coasters barely had anyone waiting in line. It was pretty amazing. Later on in the day, when the coasters started to get packed with people, we went to the little kiddy rides.
There was this log-ride with a name I can’t remember. The ride itself was just supposed to be a smooth log ride on a stream. It didn’t have any major splashes that you would get yourself soaking wet in. So you know what my group did? We spent the whole time splashing ourselves! loooooool. It was funny.
There was also this tea-cup ride. It is a ride that consists of tea-cups that would spin you on this circular track. Inside each tea-cup are turning wheels so people can control the spin of the cup. While we were on the ride, we spun it as fast as we can! We turned a little kiddy ride into a roller coaster. Haha.
Overall, the day was great. I had so much fun, if I had another chance to do it again, I wouldn’t change a thing. But if I had to change something, I’d change the leaving-time. We had to leave at 6 pm.
Formal!

So today, I had the time of my life. Seriously. It’s good to get to hang out with all of the 8th Graders before we all move on to different High Schools and part ways. The best thing about it was the fact that everyone got along! There was almost no beef whatsoever. Hell, I even tried to “get cool” with someone. ;b
And it turns out that the place didn’t get shot up. Wow, I can’t believe I believed that mumble jumble. I even got all freaked out about it the first time I heard about it and everything.
The Formal was great. Me, being the Asian that doesn’t know how to dance, managed to learn quickly and had fun. All the guys joked around and grinded on each other. It was strange, because most of the time, the guys would be in one group, and the girls would be in the other. Each gender group managed to “dirty dance” with each other. Now, don’t get the idea that I enjoy guys grinding on me; I just thought it was funny.
On the slow songs, I got to slow-dance with my sweetheart. I enjoyed every moment of it, because she was really shy and didn’t really want to dance that much.
The only thing that really annoyed me was some girl brought her bitchass boyfriend. He was short, scrawny, and tried to start shit with my friend Kyler, who is freaking tall, slightly built, and has an anger problem. Looooool, guess who would win if they duked it out? Then, Kevin goes in and pushes him, telling him to, “Chill the fuck out.” The kid walks away, butthurt.
We all continued with the chaotic madness until about nine; then, a lot of people went to T.G.I. Friday’s. Luckily enough, my friends, my girl and I managed to get there first. We reserved a seat for ourselves, since it would be first-come, first-serve.
To be honest with you, T.G.I.’s food wasn’t even worth the money. I spent $40 for an entree, appetizer and a slush. It looked good, but wasn’t.
It wasn’t until that moment at T.G.I. was when I needed to take pictures, for the memories. So sadly enough, I left home tonight with less than fifty pictures.
But like I said, I had a blast. I’mma miss everyone. I hope we can all see each other again like this. )’:
TF2 Update!
![]()
The Gold Rush & Medic Achievements Update came out a few days ago. I was lucky enough to be one of the very first people to update my client and start “achieving” right away! Why? Because if you did a certain number of the 36 medic achievements, you get special unlockables.
Even though it took me ’til yesterday to get all three of them, I feel proud.
If you don’t have them yet, and you want them, go to the Nova Prospekt servers. Their servers are pretty much achievement-farming servers. It’s much better to achievement-farm when you have a microphone. If you don’t, you’ll probably get overlooked by the others.
Btw, the three unlockables are: the Blutsauger, Kritzkrieg, and Übersaw. The Blutsauger is a needle-gun that does no crits and drains enemy health for every successful hit. The Kritzkrieg is a medigun that ubers you faster, but instead of making you invulnerable, makes you do 100% criticals. And the Übersaw is just pure pwnage. It has a slower swing but every hit gives you +25% into your uber bar.
Also, the new map, Gold Rush isn’t bad at all. Valve made it to be super fun! I was slightly worried because of the fact that the early user-created “escort” maps were a piece of crap. I was under the impression that Valve released the tools to make cart maps before the actual release of Gold Rush. But. Valve did not fail with this map. I love it. You should really play it if you have TF2. NOW!
And yes, I have indeed been having lots of writers’ blocks with this blog. Not sure why. Maybe it’s because I’m under the impression that I suck at writing? ):
