It's been 10 years of no post. Hard to believe how long it's been. I thought I had stopped blogging later than I really did. Many games have come out since then. Life has changed a LOT since then. But what hasn't changed is my love for video games, and what I want to accomplish. Lots of ups and downs, twists and turns, but I'm happy with where I am and can't wait to experience the video games coming out in the future. Tomorrow, the sequel to The World Ends With You comes out. I am extremely excited!! I can only hope that I feel emotions that are thought provoking and leave me speechless. Maybe I'll write a review for it for old times sake, given I've written a review for the first game. But we'll see! If there's even anyone here anymore and you're reading this, I hope you are living your best life!

Wow, it's been a while hasn't it? Does anyone even remember me? Probably not.

Funny thing is it has been exactly a year from my last blog to this blog. Heh, that's strange :P

Anyway, I'm not sure what to say so I'm gonna go and leave my signature for nostalgia, haha. See ya!

I didn't get very much but this is what I got.

Bioshock 2 (360)

Nintendo 64! :D

Donkey Kong 64

Star Fox 64

earphones

$35 from my Nana

I can't play DK64 yet because I need the stupid little expansion pak thing. At least I can play Star Fox but I already beat it. It's a short game xD

This weekend was not very good, even though Friday was awesome. I have to go to this SAT Prep place to practice reading and understanding things on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Now how am i supposed to get a job now??? I barely have any money left and once I use up what I have, how am I supposed to get more?? my dad won't give me allowance anymore and I'm gonna need money for all the games I still want to get. This really makes me mad. :evil:

Well hopefully you guys had a better weekend than I did. See ya later.

Hey guys! Sorry for my absence, I've been super busy ever since school started (you can thank my AP cla$$ for that), I am able to have some time to tell you guys that my birthday is on Friday :3 Yay! But I am not gonna be on at any point that day because my school has a football game that day and our band will be out playing our stuff in the stands, marching our marching show during halftime, and having a good time. Most likely go to Cici's Pizza afterward too. Last week's game was a blast and I'm hoping this week's game is even better! Can't wait!

So these are the stuff i want for my birthday. You can tell what I mostly want, can't you? :P

So you can see I'm taking some steps back, Main reason being is I miss those good old times.... A lot :(

That's all I got. I'll let you guys know what I got for my birthday on Saturday or Sunday. Oh and I love that Labor Day is near my birthday. 3 day weekend!! :)

CRman930

Sadly, it is my last day of summer. Now, do i have anything planned for today? No, not really. At least not now. I did have a sleepover this weekend and went out with a friend today so it's all good. Now I probably should spend some quality time with Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 :) I love that game. One thing I'm sad about is that I don't have Heroes of Might and Magic 4 anymore. I LOVED that game. My brother and I used to play it all the time. Man, it was the bomb. Now I can't find it :( Looks like something else is on my birthday wishlist.

Speaking of which, my birthday is in 12 days, meaning it's on a Friday, meaning it's gonna be on one of our school's football games, so our band is performing at the game then. I'm sure it's gonna be tons of fun! :D

So I may not have nearly enough time to get on as much I do. Mostly because I'm taking an AP class this year and will require a lot of reading... we'll see how THAT goes. (I would have done Pre-AP if they offered it but they decided not to this year. WTF?)

So for those who also start tomorrow, I hope you guys have a great first day! :D (Let's just hope it's good :P)

If you're wondering, no, I did not get tagged. I was just bored and wanted to do something for a blog :P Here are my facts that you may or may not know about me.

1. Many people tell me I have Justin Bieber hair, including my neighbors and my sister. I don't like when they compare me to him. At all.

2. I love playing jazz music more than "classic" music on my sax, but it's just harder.

3. My favorite genres of music to listen to are classic rock (or any kind of rock, really), jazz, and alternative.

4. I have a very negative mind.

5. Out of me, my brother, and sister, I was the only one that was born naturally.

6. I get most of myexercisefrom marching band.

7. My brother is my role model.

8. I don't have any best friends that live in my state.

9. I've liked girls ever since 1st grade.

10. I want my junior and senior years to be the best school years I've ever had in my entire life.

there you go my friends, and now time for me to show you what my junior year schedule is! exciting :P

1. jazz band

2. computer science

3. symphonic band

4. AP U.S. History

5. English 3 Honors

6. Pre-Calculus Honors

7. Physics Honors

What really sucks about my schedule is all my electives are first and then my core classes, and the fact I barely have anyone I know that are in my classes :( Looks like I have to make new friends.

and now for a random picture.... :D

Only one more week until I start school. I hope this week goes by very slow :|

CRman930

Hey guys. I've been busy with band stuff for the past week so forgive my absence. So this next school year, I'm going to a senior high, and it's gonna be a big experience for everybody. The seniors say they have a blast all school year and I'm really looking forward to it! I'm actually wanting for school to start, but only because of band and the people :P but anyway, I wanted to tell you guys what our marching shows (yes, we have 2) are gonna be. They are....

THE INCREDIBLES

That's right. We'll be playing music from this awesome movie. Here are the tunes that we'll be playing.

The Glory Days

Life's Incredible Again - My favorite tune from the movie but hard to play, mainly because of the part that starts at about 0:50

Bob Vs. The Omnidroid - The arrangement gave us a freaking hard part(for alto saxes) and probably will be the hardest to play and march. I hear nothing from our part in the official soundtrack. We don't play any of the quiet stuff in the beginning of the video, by the way.

Saving Metroville- This probably mainly a trombone feature, not a lot of measures of this song in the arrangement. Might just be playing the beginning part of this song.

The Incredits- not all of it, obviously. That would take too long xD and would be hard to memorize.

And now, here's the OTHER show we'll be playing...

ELVIS PRESLEY

Isn't it kinda weird to march to Elvis tunes?? I think it is. Anyway, here's the songs we're playing.

Can't Help Falling In Love

Burning Love

C.C. Rider

Hound Dog- probably my favorite of the bunch

Love Me Tender

Jailhouse Rock

I don't really have much to say about these because I haven't heard any of them until now, except Hound Dog :P

I know we have to memorize The Incredibles music but I'm not sure about Elvis... I hope not. The Elvis part is separated into 4 different movements. Now that's gonna be tough to remember >.>

I'm gonna be busy in the weeks to come so if i'm not here, it's because of band, basically. :P And if you couldn't tell, I don't really have summer anymore because of this xD

And for anybody who can't tell, gaming will be slow :| *tear tear*

This Monday, I'm going on a double date with a girl named Allie and her friend. The original time to go was at 3pm but our plans were change to either 7 or 8:30pm because Allie's friend wants someone to sleepover at her house afterward and Allie couldn't. Ummm wasn't this supposed to be a double date? And why couldn't her friend just go to her house later?? Ever thought of that?? Well, whatever. As long as I can still go and have a good time.

The other day I got my ID and a Meyer 5M Jazz mouthpiece for my saxophone! Basically it makes the saxophone sound more jazzy :P and it's definitely something I need if I am playing in a jazz band.

This is what it looks like. It may look not much different from a regular mouthpiece but believe me, it's different :P I know those of you who don't play the sax (which is practically all of you) would not understand anyway :P

I'm still playing SMG2 but I'm slooooowwwwwly progressing. My laptop is too distracting :P That's all for today. See you guys next blog!

CRman930

For those who read my last blog, I had something to do yesterday and today. Well, both of those plans got ruined. So I didn't get to a movie and I'm meeting those old neighborhood friends sometime later. Not sure when yet.

But I guess this would just leave me with more time to play some games. Some saxophone practice wouldn't hurt either. Now I need to figure out what to go play :P see ya peoples around.
