Missed a month!

Dang it, I was trying to make a goal of posting at least one blog each month. I had been doing really good, I had at least one post from January - July, but I never made a single post in August. :( That makes me said. Anyway, a lot has been going on lately. School has, of course, started again and I'm involved with a shit-ton of things this year. First of all, I'm the Sentinel in the FFA, so I am doing a lot with that this year, and I'm in Robotics, so I have meetings for that and whatnot, plus I am working after school every once in a while when I have to substitute for someone that either can't work or doesn't want to (weird how that can work, I know, right?). So, yeah. I think the main reason why I never blogged in August is because I spent the majority of my time on SA-MP (San Andreas Mulit Player), and didn't do much else, which is really sad. I think this post definitely makes up for the missed month of August. I wish I hadn't done that... oh well. Later!

British Teenager Bikes on Lake!

I was just recently reading something about a British teenager, 16 years old, who apparently rode his bike on a 75-foot deep lake to raise awareness for some bike event coming up. He was interviewed by the media, but he wouldn't tell how he did what he did. He says that many people saw him do it and say it isn't a camera trick, and that the photos are real. It's very possible that the photos are real, but it's also very much possible that he wasn't magically riding his bike on the lake with nothing under neath and out of sight. He most likely had a long platform below sea level, making it appear as if though he were biking on a lake. Nice try trying to top Jesus with biking on a lake.

Hm...

I'm beginning to feel like I'm not using my Blog the way it's meant to be used. I've been viewing friends' of mine blog's (if I said that right) and they are written in a different way that seems right. Mine just seem like a mini-version of a journal. And, to me, a blog isn't a place for you to tell people what you did today, what you're planning to do, or anything in that matter. I believe it's for giving your thoughts about something, and well, now that I think about it, maybe sometimes how your day was or what happened. I might go surfing around on other blogs on Blogger, and see what I should change.

I'm Back!

It has been a looong time since my last blog post. Well, not a long long time, but it's been a while since I've been on here. I don't have much to talk about in this post, actually. There's a really good song on right now.

One Thing That Really Annoys Me About Apple

The one thing that really irritates me about Apple is that they don't allow any PC or non-Apple hardware computer to run Mac OS X. I find that very frustrating because there is a program built-in to all Apple computers called "Boot Camp." It allows you to install a version of Windows on a Mac and use either the Windows or Mac OS. That is really kinda mean, I think. This is pretty much what Apple is saying: "We won't allow ANY of our software to be installed or run on non-Apple hardware, but we WILL let Windows be run on OUR computers.

You sons of bitches.

The Worst Browser: Internet Explorer

I really think that Internet Explorer (IE) is the worst browser ever made. Now, it may be just because of my Netbook's performance, but when I was testing the new IE9's speed, it sucked. The webpages loaded kind of fast, but the scrolling was very choppy and it was not very good in terms of performance. I would highly recommend either Chrome or Firefox.

Easter!

Today is the first day off of school for Easter break! This morning I had to serve at Good Friday mass. Tomorrow night at 12:00 AM I can go back on Facebook! Whoo hoo! I do have some homework over break, but it's nothing too difficult. Alright, bye!

That's good!

I'm very happy tonight because I don't have much homework tonight. In fact, the only other homework that I have is studying for my math test, which won't be too difficult, I hope anyway. I'm thinking about buying a camera to make more YouTube videos this summer, but I'm not sure what camera to get. I was thinking of getting the Flip, although Jon, from YouTube, has said that it's not the greatest camera. Whatever. I'll research it a little more.

The Canon PowerShot Digital Camera

I have taken into consideration purchasing this video camera that I plan on using to record future YouTube videos that I will be making this summer. It is a bit pricey, but heck, it's only a couple bucks away from the price of the Flip, and it does a hell of a lot more than the Flip. Plus, I have almost half the amount it costs. I think I AM going to buy it!

Here's a link to the camera in case you happen to be interested:

Thinking twice is a good idea!

,Today, I found out that it's a good idea to think twice before you make an online purchase. No, it wasn't like I found out it was a scam or anything. I was thinking about purchasing a VGA-to-HDMI cable so I could put my Netbook's display on the TV, but after reading some of the reviews, I found out it's not as simple as plugging two ends of a cable into two different things. You need an actual converter/adapter for the VGA end to transmit over to the HDMI end in order for the connection to work right, or something like that. Plugging in both of the ends just like that won't do what you want - you need the converter to make it work right. However, a converter for this kind of thing costs well over $100, believe me - I've done my research. So, if you're thinking about making an online purchase, be sure to read the customer reviews before making a decision so fast- it can save you time and money.
