Well well well

Hmm...I haven't made one of these for a while and yet I find the need to make one now. Well life is just as usual as it was before. The only new feeling that has entered is the feeling of loss as I think my created RPG is going down hill now...

I must say it has been great working on such a story and I plan to at least continue working on it as long as it keeps going. Who knows maybe one day it might even get turned into a movie or a game. Sure enough we would have to change somethings but that is okay. I have attempted recruiting and that definitely doesn't work, so we will just continue as usual.

In other news I have been playing Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition and I've come to the conclusion that I still can't master Royal Guard even with the new turbo speed. Man isn't that just sad, but at one point I was continuously Just Guarding some spiders and I don't know where that came from but it was happening...and it was creepy.

Hmm...this is a pretty lengthy looking post...oops.

Wow

Hmm...this is different, oh well. I suppose we should all just find away to live with it. I don't know what I'm typing, but I just had to say something...yeah...

The First Stop Disney/MGM Studios

The first kingdom that we visited at Disney World was MGM Studios. While most may think that this place is boring, it really is interesting. It mostly consisted of shows, featuring Disney characters, and some of other great movies. The first show that we went to was an Indian Jones Adventure, the actual stunt double for Harrison Ford played the part. The show contained famous action scenes from the past movies, each taken with a different stage. There was fire, a good bit of it too, I could feel the heat, and I was sitting in the back, for a good view that is.

After the Indian Jones Show, we traveled over to a pilot episode of Undercover Live, a show starring Drew Carey. While the show was about 12 minutes, we only saw about 5 minutes of it because the other 7 minutes was in "complete and total darkness." We used headphones to hear the show, as the camera that we viewed from was a pin on Carey's tie. What was great about this was the amount of felling given through the headphones. Whatever was happening to the officer, almost felt like it was happening to you. At one point in the show, there were bees, and I was looking around, it felt as if I had fallen into a nest of swarming bees. All of the great sound parts happened in the dark, and the audience got wet at the end when an elephant appeared and sprayed us all.

After this show we went to get a fastpass ticket, which lets you reserve a spot for a show at a later time, for Startour, which is a Starwars ride. As we had time before we could enter, we took off again, and went into the next show, Muppets in 3-D. They were just as lively as before, and still just as funny. Naturally the 3-D elements were small, but they did add impact to the movie. As that show finished we returned to the Startour, which was about to begin.

As we went in, we saw many different robots and a center for deploying ships. We took a ship and prepared fro a tour of a certain planet. As we got started the ship jumped to light speed, and then stopped. Now as we quit light speed we run into comets, which marked the beginning of many bumps and jumps as the robot pilot maneuvered us through the mass of icy material. As soon as the ship made it out of the comets we found ourselves caught in a tractor beam as a battle between the Empire and the Republic got underway. As a couple X-Wings saved us, we began to attack the Empire, specifically the Deathstar. Of course we took it out, with more bumps, and as soon as the ship was clear of the area, another light speed jump was made to send us back to the facility.

After such a great ride, we travelled to a car show, which was full so we fastpassed that too. Now having fastpasses, the next stop was somewhere down the road, the Valley of the Little Mermaid would of been good if it wasn't full, so we somehow ended up on the backlot tour. Here we saw how some special effects are created, and we also got wet by a torpedo. After that segment of the show we jumped on little trolley type things, and took a ride around the back of the studio. Here is where you could see memorabilia of old movies as well as some items from movies that had just been finished. By now it had started to rain and the set began to use its own rain and flooding effects to show us how real Hollywood rain is. Naturally this happened after we pulled into a mountain set area, more flames and water to ensure that people got wet, it was an enjoyable ride. A little later we returned to a different part of the station, where they had models of villains from certain movies. Darth Vader along with a Storm Trooper, an Alien, Cruel De Vil, an Ape from Planet of the Apes, and a Dragon from Reign of Fire, all of the models looked great, and very realistic. Most of them were life size, specifically the human type ones, not the ape or the dragon.

Walking along we found another show that was close to starting, the Disney Animation tour. Here I found how the characters of Disney came about and certain characters that never made it. The main character we heard about on this tour was the dragon Mushu, from Mulan, but they also branched off to talk about Pochantas and her turkey friend... Initially Pochantas was suppose to have three friends, a raccoon, a hummingbird, and a turkey. (Note from what I saw that turkey was purple and a bit strange looking.) Sometime later, though, they decided to scrap one of her friends and Meko got squashed. Later again, they figured that the turkey was a bit weird, so instead they brought back Meko and tossed the turkey.

Mushu was initially two separate deities and neither of them were dragons exactly. Eventually the deities took on the body of a snake and the head of a camel, to make the body of Mushu, the only problem was that he had two heads, which was easily fixed. That was pretty much what they showed us, as we walked into the other room, many sculptures of Disney villains and some supporting characters from the movies. Here was where people could get autographs from Mr. and Mrs. Incredible. Before we left we saw a short preview of a new Disney and Pixar movie, called Chicken Little, the details looked great, as always.

By the time we finished with this part of the Kingdom, it was time to go to the Extreme Motor Stunt Show, the car show. As we filled in the sits, the show began, with amazing high speed driving. It was pretty much many chase scenes between the hero car, which was some super secret spy guy with a red car, and the other guys who drove black cars. Flames where everywhere, along with amazing jumps and great reverse driving. Of course these driving stunts were explained, by having two cars, one with the wheel in the front, and the other with the wheel in the back. It was a very exciting show, and as we left I thought nothing could be that great, until I went on the Hollywood Tower of Terror.

As we approached the ride, I saw the people go all the way up and come all the way down, and it was pretty high. I walked into the first room, and I thought it was the elevator. Sure there was a couple of T.V.s in there, but still I was already getting nervous. As we exited that room, I saw the many elevators for the tower, and that was my mind told me I was going to die. As we got onto the elevator, it slowly moved up to the first floor, we were in the basement. Here we saw some creepy little ghost man...scary. After he left we went to the second floor, here was the beginning...a family of ghost appeared with massive amounts of lightning and darkness, and the elevator began to move forward. My cousin was ready to grab the bars and hold on tight, being that he is only 11. I sat in my seat and began to wonder...are we going to continue up slowly or extra fast...I soon had my answer as the elevator accelerated at probably 50 or more mph straight up. As we went up the doors opened showing the outside of the park, and many other areas. As soon as we reach the top, it was a drop...not a light drop either, practically all the way down. I thought it was over, but then up again, and down again. It was repeated at different heights for a good minute. Being that I don't really like heights...I sort of closed my eyes at certain points, but yet I opened them to see outside. By the end of the ride, I sort of didn't want to get up...but after I got out I wanted to go again. That was the last stop at MGM Studios, being that all the others had long lines...and we were all tired. So we went home to rest up for the Fourth of July and the Magic Kingdom!

The Journey to Disney World

Note: We are starting from North Carolina, because of the long boring drive from Kansas was too much.

It was suppose to take us 8 hours to get from North Carolina to Orlando Florida, and we were suppose to leave early morning on Friday, June 1st. We ended up leaving at around 4:30 P.M. Eastern Time. This was only the first of the many problems that ensued on our travel to Orlando Florida. As we drove, the other relatives, specifically the one driving continued to speed along the road. Lets say the limit was 70 and we were doing about 75...they were going inbetween 80 or 90...

As she continued to speed along, we kept up as best as we could, zooming along in the story to Florida. (As driving through the other states was pretty much straight forward and boring.) So here we are in Florida, driving along the Interstate, thinking we are all good...we pull off the interstate, and summon the fury of I don't know someone. We went through town after town, stopping practically at 5 minute intervals...they were lost. As we followed our trusted AOL instructions, well not us the others, who were leading, we found ourselves driving for another 50 miles to get to someplace called Gainsville. Now what does Gainsville have to do with Orlando...I haven't the slightest idea...but it was there. After getting to Gainsville, we drove somewhere somehow and ended up in Brooksville. Heck I was asleep, so here we are in Brooksville looking for our Villa, yes they ordered a Villa for us. (Note that the Villa was in a place called Kissimme, or something like that and we were in Brooksville looking for it.)

So here they go driving down this old road, with some old houses, not Villas, but houses...small houses. By now, my aunt had already ditched the other vehicle and jumped in ours... Lets just say that a bit of a while back, our relatives, now that we had been driving for more that 10 hours, and the fact that we didn't really rest in the morning had started to drift.

Okay so we have drifters, because they were tired, but the still refused to take a break so we continued on. Now after we got out of that housing area we continued to follow the others, and they decided to drive 20 minutes in another direction, away from the Interstate. After we caught up to them, they were speeding again, we finally got them to go back to the Interstate. Of course on the trip back to the Interstate...we had a little bit of cop trouble. The limit said either 40 or 50, they were doing 70, and we were flashing. I was busy looking out the window. So the cop was going to pull them over, but instead the flashing car got pulled over. Sure enough they pretended that nothing was wrong with the lights, and the officer couldn't do a single thing with the registration being from St. Thomas. (Note it seems that State police officers rarely see a Virgin Islands tag and such.) Soon enough we were off. Of course the others were hiding in some little pull in spot, waiting until after both Police cars passed. Sure enough people were upset...as a mild term, but we continued on to a gas station to ask for directions.

At this gas station, the truth was finally came out. We had been driving in the wrong direction for the past 2 1/2 hours. The anger was high, but all they could do was laugh... Sure enough it was some time after 2 in the morning, and none of the adults had any real sleep from the beginning of that Friday, but we sure enough drove that 2 1/2 hours back up to Orlando. After reaching Orlando, we didn't let the others lead anymore. Considering they had gotten us lost about 5 times, we took the lead. After calling my aunt, we got straight directions from Orlando to the Villa area. It was actually a pretty smooth ride, with only a few turnarounds being needed. After crossing the toll road we landed in Kissimme. Sure enough it was daylight, everyone else was tired, but we continued on to the area, got in the villa, and started a problem with the alarm. It just wouldn't shut up.

After a little help from the Sheriff guy...that appeared, the alarm was finally off, we moved in our stuff and everyone pretty much went to sleep for the entire Saturday. Sunday would begin the first of the many Disney Parks.

Completed...

Hi...

I have finally returned...but I can't type good at the moment...I will journalize my long journey...when I'm fully charged...lets see what has happened on the boards.

It looks like I will be gone for a while.

It seems that I have a family vacation to take. First we are going to visit a relative, and then on to Disney World. This should be an interesting trip, as I will probably be leaving today. They haven't told me exactly how long we will be gone, so I guess Aegis, decided to take a break from the fight. As to keep the story moving. Well I hope you all have fun while I'm gone.

Orientation for College yesterday...What a long day

Yesterday, June 17 was my long day of Orientation for college. I got to pick my classes, and look around the campus. It was a day full with information. I can see why many think College is hard...I supposedly have to keep my GPA above a 2.5 to stay in the college of business, when I actually start my accounting classes, I have to keep it above a 3.0. This shouldn't be to hard, if I spend a lot of time studying. I got a plethora of free stuff which is always good... Hmm, I don't really know what else to say, besides the amount of walking I will be doing each day is going to be great...

Party!!! I did it May 22, 2005 Graduation Day!!!!

It has been a long 12 years, but I finally did it. The graduation started off with the class grouping in the gym. We then had to line up on two separate sides of the gym, with our walking partners. Sure enough my walking partner didn't show, but I was great anyway. We marched out to the stadium, and filed in to our chairs. The sun just seem to have some reason for not moving. So we got pretty hot, but it was worth it. As the speeches from the Valedictorian, Salutatorian, and Class President came to an end, the time of the diploma grew ever so near. Once the first row of people started up to get their diplomas, the excitement grew at an exponential rate. When my row got up, the nerves really started up. I still walked straight across the stage, but I had a little thought going through my head, don't fall. Once everyone had there diplomas, we all switched our tassel from the left side to the right side, to signify that we had graduated. I felt so proud, and powerful all at the same time. Life has finally started, hopefully for the best.

I had a party after graduation, it went from 10 P.M. to 5 A.M. I stayed the entire time, even though it got boring at times. How can they have a party and not have a modern day game system. All they had was a Nintendo 64 and only two controllers... I decide to play Blackjack instead of watching them play game. There was also a swimming pool area, I would of went in if two conditions were met. If I had clothes to swim in, and if I could swim. All in all it was a great party, I won a refrigerator in the prize raffle thingy. Ha ha, now lets continue the party.

Graduation Practice, what a long day...

Graduation practice happened today, and it was a long drawn out ceremony. First we found out that our class had did so well with scholarships and service learning hours. Then we learned that we owed about 8000 dollars, some how. I don't owe anything though which is good. As we started the marching practice I noticed my walking partner wasn't here. We got to chose our partner, of course I didn't chose because I couldn't find anyone. So I was practically the only one walking alone, I felt special. Many of the people know me, so they were all happy, as I continued to make my jokes. We had to restart the walk because some people messed up, I didn't even know because I hadn't even got up yet to start the walk. After about 3 tries we had it, and then they started off doing the first row. This was to show us how to walk across the stage and receive the great diploma. All in all, it was okay, but a bit boring. The Senior Picnic after was more interesting, but I sure did have to wait for some food.

OMG Its finally over...The Final School Day

Today was it, the last day of being a senior in school. Now everything is completed, except Graduating and practice. This is really depressing, and exciting at the same time. Why did it have to end, but I'm so happy that I finally finished. More to follow this tomorrow.
