11/19/15 Pt.2

After School:

After school I had to head back to the other building for basketball practice. I made the freshman high school team. Tryouts were a while back. As for how good I am, I'm not terrible at the sport but I certainly am not the best on the team by a mile... or two. Anyway,  previous to this practice I had not been there for almost four practices and missed pictures. So, yah, I got a lot of crap for not being there. Of which I partially deserved. But that morning I got my stuff right before school so trying it on and breaking in the shoes they gives up was really fun and nice. As punishment for bad communication about missing the first two practices and pictures I had to sit out on the scrimmaging drills most of the time The only times I got to play during that type of drill is when coach wanted to talk with one of the player or someone got tired. At the end we had to do shorts. Shorts is an exercise where we have to run across the court a certain amount of times in a short amount of time. So that was "fun".

After basketball practice I had to again walk back to the other building and wait for the play I helped with to start. In the play I am part of the deck crew and the tail of the dragon. Being part of the deck crew is fun but the dragon tail is hilarious and stupid and a piece of crap. It's embarrassing and a pain. So the play was really rough because it our first time doing it in front of a crowd and a few things went wrong. The first thing was that instead of a blue out (meaning instead of the stage going completely dark, it just goes to a dark blue lighting) we accidentally went to a black out and couldn't see the spikes so we missed our mark by about a foot. Which is a lot in when we're moving wagons and set pieces. The reason that happened is because there was a small power outage the night before and so the LEDs weren't prepped to be used which they fixed halfway through the first act. The other thing that went wrong is when we changed to the red spikes, I moved the C wagon to the correct spikes and then one of the crew from the other side moved it and the screen fly that was brought in hit the end which is where it had to stay until the next scene change. After those two mistakes we pulled it together and got through the rest of the show. And then I went home, did some homework while watching Markiplier, and went to bed.

Until next time Flies!

11/19/15. Pt. 1

I'm writing this post a bit late because I couldn't finish it on the day in the title. So I'm still going to write this as a narrative as though you are right there next to me and I'm telling you what happened throughout my day.

Morning: So today I woke up to the god-awful sound of my alarm clock. I'm thinking about getting a different sound with a less annoying sound that it makes. Maybe one of those that just turns on the radio for sound to wake you up. It would probably make me more happy in the morning because instead of instantly making me annoyed, it would be pretty peaceful. So that day I went through my normal wake-up routine leaving the house at 6:52 a.m. with my sister (who for some reason doesn't seem to like me very much).

School: Today was a White Day so I first had Computer Tech. A class where we learn all the different terms and functions that happen within a computer to bring us this majestic work of human intellect. I really like this class for two reasons: the teacher and it's pretty chill of a class. The teacher's name is Mr. Coleman, he's really nice and thinks deeply about this which is something I see in myself so it's nice to see it in others. Thinking deeply about things is something that's becoming more and more rare due to everyone relying on technology to do that for us. Second Period I had Spanish 3 with Mrs. Alpanalp. I love Mr. Alpanalp because she is so funny and nice. Everyone else says that too but they also they say they don't learn anything in the class. I think however, that I've learned more Spanish in these first and a half quarters than I learned. Third Period was spent in Honors Math with a substitute teacher because my main teacher Mrs. Payne is with her dying mother (I pray she goes easily unto the breach). The subs name was Dom and he was a rapper, and his rapper name was "The Teacher". At the end of class we finished our work 15 min or so early so he did a rap for us he named "Frowny Face" and it was about how new technology is sucking people out of the real world. It was incredible ad I was really sad when he said that it wasn't on iTunes. So then I headed over to the other building for Fourth Period: Stage Tech. Which is basically where I did homework because some of the others had to mop the stage for the show that night. Of which I was in as a part of the deck crew. Every White Day I walk over with one of my long time friends Atlas (it's a girl). She's quiet but, is fun to be around.

UPDATE!!!!!: Change in blog theme.

Hey Flies!

This is an update that my blog's theme will be changing. I'm changing it to what happens in my daily life. The reassuring theme will be that each post will end with me going home and watching youtube. I will of course be providing the links into what videos I'm watching so you guys can get an idea of what I'm into. The majority of the videos will be from FailArmy, Markiplier, and Zajcu37. FailArmy and Markiplier are both fairly popular YouTubers,both having around 9 million subscribers. Zajcu37 is a YouTuber with around 700,000.

FailArmy, I bet you can take a guess at what he does. He/she makes compilation videos of people failing at similar things. This YouTuber I don't the real life name of. If I could in fact meet this person, I would leap at the chance to do so. They obviously have an amazing sense of humor... most of the time. I really like this channel because it has the amazing ability to pick me up are a crappy day. WARNING: These videos if you turn on the audio will have people swearing and they most certainly are not for everyone. Anyway I would most definitely recommend checking out his/her videos and I think you will like.

Markiplier is a person who makes videos mainly of him playing games. Parents won't understand these types of channels no matter how many times you try and tell them how and why you like them. They're always like: "Why are you watching someone else play a game?? Just play it for yourself!". Personally one the reasons I like channels like this is because I get a preview of the game before I buy it so I know if I made the right choice or not. The reason I really like Markiplier more than other channels like Jacksepticeye and Pewdiepie is because he's very aware of what's happening. I never really was into Jacksepticeye and I once was an enormous Pewdiepie fan. But then one of my friends showed me Markiplier who thinks so much deeper about the game and looks for every secret because he knows that that's what we love. At the end of a terrible day spent with unreasonable idiots called humans, we come home and lie down on our beds or couches or sit at the desk and watch this one man in a room alone talking to a camera for the joy of other people. And he loves what he does which makes it better because we know that us (the fans) are only lifting him up and not pulling him down by making him do something he doesn't want to do. I love you Markiplier!!!!💟💟💟💟💟💟

Zajcu37 is an animator. On his Youtube channel he makes animations about the hit indie game "Five Nights at Freddy's". He now has made two or three seasons worth of fnaf (five nights at freddy's) shorts. The really cool thing is it has a plot and climax and everything! It even somewhat goes along with the fnaf lore and timeline. I think he's an amazing animator and there are a lot of funny parts in the videos.

So those are my top 3 favorite YouTube channels and I hope you will try to look at them a few times each because most of the videos fro Zajcu37 and FailArmy are no more than 8 minutes and everyone has 8 minutes to spare every now and then.

Until next time Flies!
