Events of Dafoose @ the Forums: Day 4/ I'm writing a song for Avatards

Ahh...Well, College is just around the corner, I keep thinking that, and there's very little I can do to help myself. Couldn't get a job. Couldn't get any free money. I guess I'm going to have to go cheap or go home.

But I always remember something I though once, "I should be happy because I know that there is always happiness in my future somewhere." And whenvever I think that, I feel all better. :D

Well, like the title said, I'm going to give you another shocking view of my opion of the Avatar forums.

The forums aren't beyond repair, I found myself having a decent conversation with several people I never met before on the forums. I enjoy the "Iroh's tea secret thread" and I made it my priority to keep that thread alive. XD Also, I found that there actually are some interesting topics, they just need a little love. Also, I just want to let you know, they aren't as bad as teh stories I've heard. As far as I know.

There are still some goodygoody gurus on the threads, I wont mention names, but they keep telling other people that the threads people make are useless, inactive, already made, or unimportant, or, most common of all, "Please request your topic in the Q/A thread." I see that comment half the time, and I'm sick of it.

If you guys are wondering what the biggest problem is on the forums? People who think they have the power to say this or that, without bearing in mind the consequences if they're wrong or not. Such people aggrivate topic starters in the first place.

Also, the drive to start new topics is a problem. The forum has, like 500 topics already. Just pick one stupid. Don't make your own because you're looking for a reputation worth having.

Last problem: Punctuation. These noOby people who start topics mispell names and don't use puncutation at all. A word of advice to all posters: talk to people as if they speak a foreign language. Do not assume we have the ability to interpret nonsensical nonending sentences.

I don't see moderators doing much, and I don't see a reason why. The forums I go to always seem peaceful. But I need more time. It's only been 4 days that I've forced myself to comment and check these forums.

In other news, yes, I am writing a song that interprets the soul, emotion, and religion of Avatar.

It is called, "March of the Avatards" Or "Song of the Avatards" I like march better. :P

It's in G, it's easy to understand, and I'm writing it with music notation software, which is the bomb! I got it for free and it sounds the notes off as they appear on the page.

I'm going to write it and send it to TFO for playing, so she'll record it and put it on teh internetz. I'm giving it to the creators in part of an Amv as well. I might write another song, using choir, but first things first. I hope to show you all my song someday. :D

Also, I got a new sig from Roll450. It's an awesome sig at that.

This is my complete GS sig. the only reason I go there is because STMT is such an awesome union. :D I hope it becomes great. Right now, I'm working on a project there to update and execute a Thread Directory. It's a lot of typing, and a lot of work. But I should have it done.



Feeling Gloomy? Want a poster? No new wallpaper. Well, there is new wallpaper, but it's old wallpaper. :P

Events of Dafoose's Day at the ATLA Forums: Day 1(an outsider's perspecitive)

I just stepped outside of my little RPG shell into the Avatar Forums...

One word: NoOB's. So many...NoooOOOoOOBBBBSSSsSSsS. I will pwn all that is the Avatar forums and purge them of NoOBiness untill all noOBs are gone. If I can change one nOoB, I will have made the forums a better place.

And there are ACTUALLY people TRYING to lock threads by looking at the title and saying, "This thread has already been made." I met two people. Today. And they did that. Laaaammmeee.

Well, I have updated my chapter for Kela Dasman on my page, as well as adding some new songs to the list.

Avatarsensation and I recently made a poster to contribute to "Giving Back" to the creators, and I was wondeing what you think?

Also, A.S. Made my Tea banner, which has everything tea related and awesome quotes. 8)

Thanks for visiting, heeeeeeeere's Johnny Wallaper!

In Recent Events...

Because so many of my friends here have started writing, I am going to publish my own stories on my website. I've already made three separate pages within it for you to navigate to separate topics.

I'm almost done with the first season for one of my characters, and I'm about to write about a new, intersting character that promises to be a good read when I write enough about him. But for now, I'm focusing on wrapping up Kela Dasman's first season carefully and precisely. I have a good story on him right now, about 50 word doc pages, so don't try to read it all at once.

I also will begin posting Avatar recipes, due to the recent installment to a new thread at the refuge. I'm collecting ideas and information to make the unique dishes of Avatar: The Last Onion Bender.

Tea Cafe`

Because My wallpaper hasn't changed yet. :shock: I am going to post a lulzy poster.

My Tea Cafe`

It's not fully up and running, but if you guys want to check it out, this is where I will be eventually when it starts working correctly. :D

Also, It has my favorites listed, so you can get an idea of where I go on a daily basis and join me sometime! Also, I've got a list of teas there for you to try out. It also has some music you would find in my itunes library.

It's the best way to drink tea on the internet. :P

The Finale Approaches...Like Thunder before a beautiful Storm...

This is my Fan Blog for Avatar, I would appreciate it if all Avatards came to read this. I got this Idea from DuhFel, who has helped me with her fan art and speeches to cherish avatar even more...

I would personally Like to thank the following people, kind of like a benchmark, for all AvatarFandom that has caused us to come together.

First, I would like to thank Polaricegirl, for being the first person to comment on my blog ever.

Second, I would Like to thank Sluggmunki for ALWAYS commenting on my blogs, (except one, he missed it, I sent him a pm about it too. :lol) Sluggtara should pwn because Aang is too much of a goody goody and Zuko is too much of an emo.

I would Like to thank DuhFel, Avatarsensation, for being one of my best TV.com friends and sharing her artwork and hardcore Avatar Fandom. She's also got an awesome Avatar dedication blog herself. It inspired me. Plus, check out her art...I want to stay connected.
You rule girl. 8)

I would like to thank Eddy, the Naruto guy. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have watched a long series like naruto. Definetly satisfied myself during "the drought". Thanks Eddy.

I would Like to thank Animedestiny1 for his help that he gave me during the Avatar drought. You may not have known it man, but I was starving for something good to watch, and you showed me how great animes can be. Thanks Man.

I would Like to thank SpiffyBacon, Who is my other awesome best friend.
He's gonna miss the finale though, so be sure to cheer him up when he gets back, (he's a refugee by the way). Imagine if that was you...it would suck huh? :P

I would Also like to thank HN for being there in my blogs as well, he's pretty cool overall, and FMA FTW...

I would Like to thank Double09nhalf for being a great partner in the RPG and giving me lots of lulz and jokes. Those times were pretty sweet man.

I would Like to thank Dr. Avatar for prescribing that needed dose of Avatar when I needed it and gave me lots of lulz with his blogs and movie info. YOu can leave the Joo Dee Army behind though. :P

I would like to thank xxbethxx, I think of you like my friend working alongside me in the TSTM because we became officers at the same time. I thought it was really awsome. :D

I would Also like to thank Earth_water for being someone I could talk to and relate to. Thanks. :)

I would like to thank Srzeczyca for being the first one to comment on my blogs upon being tracked. It feels good to get attention like that. :D

Also, I guess I could thank my Forum leader, TLG, for keeping the Avatar RPG thread alive for all that time...But he's not gonna read this.

I would like to thank Wise, Lisa, and ThirteenParrots for being Awesome Adutls who spare their lives to us for the sake of Avatar.

I would Like to thank Youtube_Tv for being a power contributer. without people like her, what would become of TV.com's resources?

I would Also like to thank in bulk, people Like Kiki and PC_fan03, avataraang, Aangphantom, Avatard and proud, and others for commenting on my blogs. I may know all of you personally, but it means a lot to me when people comment.

Then I would like to thank my new friends Castleman and SDF for accepting me so quickly into the refuge. We get a lot of lolz. :P

:O And that's it for the personal titles. Thanks everyone. NOTE: if I forgot you and you know you're important to me, let me know so I can put you up there. ;)

Ok, Now onto the Avatard blog.

Well, I don't exactly remember how Avatar started for myself, I could say it was the artwork, or the muic, or teh fact that bending is just awesome. But in reality, I can't answer the question myself truthfully anymore. It's probably because My reason has changed itself over the last 8 months, when I was deprived...Like we all were deprived.

But now...Energy fills me up with hope for a good ending, as I cannot even fathom how entertaining and life changing Avatar might be in the end....
but the journey won't end just yet. My friends and I will still be waiting for one more Avatar journey, the movie itself. But less about the movie right now and more about the show...

The 2 hour long finale of Avatar that has been kept in the vaults of Nickelodeon in Burbank has been in there long enough. It's high time the dust was wiped of it's beautiful casing and placed into the magical device that gives us Television. Avatar is like thunder before a beautiful Storm. It can make us laugh and it can make us cry. Either one, the tears are provided.

Avatar has inspired me to be cultural and open to other types of culture, and taught me to enjoy more of the little things. It has also provided safekeeping for myself when I feel down. The excitement and self satisfaction I get when I watch it Touches my soul sometimes, and I get goosebums like everyone else who is an Avatard might get...These Avatar goosebumps are an experience we all share when we watch the show and take in the brillaince that is M & D. (Gods of Avatar) :P

But I have to say, the most rewarding thing about Avatar were the friends I made. I am soo glad I joined the refuge before the finale, I've never had so much fun with Avatar in my life. I am really glad to have met some of you, and I hope we stay in touch.

The other thing about Avatar that I love so much, is, Obviously, Iroh, who will make a final comeback appearance. I look forward to that more than anything. Because Iroh is the bomb. But I would also like to see the other battles as well.

The beautiful art that is bending and martial arts never get's boring to look at. Whether it's in a picture, drawing, or show, I never get tired of seeing it.

That is my Avatard blog, not as long as some others *coughDuhfelCough*

But, uh, yeah, I'm kinda speechless now. *cries softly*

Hey everyone, I hope you guys get a 10.0 on the Richter scale for a Fangasm for the finale. That's my goal. 8)

Here is my own wallpaper. It's the south pole. I used photoshop to make it. It's basically fanart. I hope you like it. :P

Banishment and Posters

On the subject of TV.com and the people I am friends with, listen up.

In this time during TV.com, there are a lot of bad things happening to the users. Old friends or acquaintances, like Nalesnik, Blaster, Ozai, who's still lurking out there somewhere ;) who have been unjustly banished etc. are just some examples.

Also, I've been reading in peoples blogs that others have been banished as well, up to 5 I've observed.

But Keep in mind as well that this is the darkest, yet most exciting time to be on TV.com, for several reasons:
The Avatar's season finale is really close.
Forums are getting boring only because the show hasn't been on for, what, 9 months, and lastly, efforts made by "flaming trolls" etc to spoil endings are becoming megolamanical. But there is little you can do about it.

So I'm asking everyone to let go of the past, (well, the bad past anyway) of TV.com and not to hold it against the site for banishing, or other wise, mistreating users. I think it's time to let go, to those it may concern.
I'm sure users who've been on here longer than me can tell you that the site goes through cycles, kind of like our economy. It's probably the worse time for Avatards everywhere, until July 14 of course. I'm sure when that day comes, very soon now, you will see a difference on this site. After all, TV.com is about television shows on TV. It makes sense that it stops working when the shows don't show.

So yeah, that's my logical arguement. I hope everybodys' looking forward to the finale, I know I am.

This is AKB's Awesome signature. Everybody lawl.

Since I've been sensing the gloom, I'll post a DMP too. :P

I have an entire Album that I made Go here. Dafoose's Lulz Album

Now here's the new wallpaper. 8)

What is Blog?

This is your OPINION BLOG CHANCE!!!! *Hyah!* *Fireworks and Dancing Girls and the food I ate before you got here* :P

So, what do you guys think a blog is? I'm interested to hear a little more about yourselves besides what I've already read in your blogs.:D I want to try to have an intelligent discussion with those who comment, so if you say something, I'll probably reply at some point. :roll:

"I think, a blog is a place for lulz, news, pictures, and friendship, all at the same time.:D"


Mai Kawasumi Wallpaper. Personal note: This is the last of my Kanon wallpaper. All of my wallpaper is sized to my desktop, which is widescreen. Thanks for visiting this blog this time!

Having a Great Summer

Despite the fact that I feel totally hopeless in my search for finding a job locally, I am totally having a great summer. I just applied to Walgreens and Petsmart. But I hate doing it online, because it takes FOREVER. Not to mention their questionaires repeat the same question 3 or 4 times. I doubt if people reading my application know what to think of me by the time I'm done.

My interests have been opened to so many things this summer, and I am picking up on trends and having a good time.

I made a new banner for myself with the help of a game spot friend of mine, Dunkaholic. He renders pictures and is a great part of the signature and tag making team at gamespot. Unfortunatley for my banner, the words,"drink your teas" are block by the tabs. That icon I have is also my new Icon. I like Iroh.

My friend just arrived in Taiwan and sent me an email.:D I'm very happy that he arrived safely and also because we will be able to keep in touch from halfway across the world.

I also finished watching Kanon and I thought it was great. I loved the ending too. I also got most of the music on my computer now, and need 2 or 3 more songs to find.

I've also started reading some manga I just bought, like Full Metal Alchemist, Luna, and The Third. I wanted to read some others, but I couldn't find them.

Naruto shippuden has been delayed once again, but I still have to catch up on the movie. I don't like the character "Sora" at all. He is more annoying than Naruto and he just sucks. Why did they make him? I want Naruto to get back to his elemental training with Kakashi.

The forums for the RP gained a lot of new blood, but now there's "golems" which are mystical elemental creatures brooding around. :( It's weird stuff.

On the subject of Avatar, the ending and finale will be ever so sweet for me! I feel the same way I did when it priemered on September 21, I was really exited. I'm waiting all over again.

Wallpaper for today, some more of my Kanon Wallpaper. I'm going to search for more Avatar Wallpaper too, since people have probably been busy with the season of Fire. :D
Note: I adjust all of my wallpaper for my computer, which is widescreen.

Up and Down blog

Writers Note: In no way is this blog superior or comparable to my last blog, which was totally awesome and all about Iroh. Thank you.

Many things have happened for me in the past seven days. Happy and sad.
First I want to share the happy things.
I registered for my Klasses at fullerton and it's a pretty nice schedule.(others will be jealous.) MWF I'm taking Geography and Oral Communication. TueThur, I'm taking Beginning Drawing(or Overview of american History), A kinesiology Klass (Tai Chi :P) and College algebra. Overall, the semester will be 14 units, (because college Alegbra is 4) . I was the last person to leave Orientation because I had to have the perfect schedule. :P. I've also been gauranteed a job on campus, so when I enter college, I (not so hopefully saying this because I want a job before I enter)get a job!

On a sadder note, my best friend left for Taiwan yesterday and he will be gone for a month. :cry: He is very cool and knows magic tricks. But he was very sad to leave because when he returns, he will be moving away to Irvine. (which is not close to me at all) He used to live real close, now he will live far away. He is going to live at and attend UC Riverside, and I hope we can still keep in touch.:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

As for other things, I'm not doing much, just trying to get a job still. :( not going well because I've been hearing how hard it is to get a job period. Hope is not high for that. But I have a philosophy, when you can do nothing, find nothing to do. So that just means I'm waiting until I have another opportunity. Which is right now!:P...Don't get confused, something just arrived and it could be my job. Fate is fickle for me. I've also had a non-profit job of making sigs and banners for people. It's just fun I guess.

Here is Kanon Wallpaper. I am really liking that show. :D;)
