 So I got hit with a cold again. It's probably my own damn fault for not sleeping at all this past week. I came home last night and crashed. I ended up sleeping about 14 straight hours, an unparalledled feat for me. I feel better now, but I think I'm going to take some niquil before going to bed tonight. This past weekend has been fairly eventful. Friday night was the debate half of the speech and debate tournament. Jeff and I were competing in public forum debate, which was interesting. We won one of our three rounds, and I think we might have done better if speaker points hadn't counted. Anyways, after that we checked out the gaming cafe that Ms. Hertzberger helps her boyfriend run. It seems like a really cool place. We walked in and about ten people were playing world of warcraft; I about peed myself with delight. They have other games too, but WoW seems to be the entertainment of choice for their patrons. On Saturday we returned to Mesa high for the Speech portion of the tournament. I was doing extemp, so for my preperation I grabbed the newspaper from the driveway on my way to school. To illustrate exactly how insufficient my preparation was, some teams had four large plasic bins worth of information. But depite having to mostly wing it I was pretty happy with my speeches. After grabbing some lunch at Arby's I went to interview with Harvy Mudd college. That went well and the interviewer was friendly. I found out I didn't break to finals in extemp, so I decided to get a costume together for Mike's party later that evening. I first went to party city and realized the only stuff they even had we french maid outfits, sexy devil outfits, sexy cheerleader outfits (which they were sold out of) and sexy generic gothic girl outfits (vampire? who knows). Not encouraging for someone looking to go as Red Mage. So I went over to the mall and purchased a red shirt and the D&D starter kit (the dice and rulebook were a good excuse to get the whole thing). After that I went to MardiGras and fought my way through hordes of people to get the remaining elements for the costume. All told I think it turned out pretty well. I couldn't aquire a proper wig, or sew the plume to the hat (I'm guessing they want it back unaltered) but those are changes I can make before using it for cosplay or something. Anyways, here I am, Red Mage: The Jack of all trades So yeah, the party was a blast. We watched Army of Darkness which was incredible for its amazing lameness. It was really the combination of poor writing and even poorer acting (and the chin) that push it over the top. And now, operating without any real sort of segue, we come to then end, where I offer a link to crazy Japanese instant ramen commericals. 'night! ¶ 12:03 AM 5 Comments:I hope you saw Evil Dead and Evil Dead II before Army of Darkness. All three are really good but surprisingly different for being a trilogy. Oh and no one noticed but Jason George was Ash from those movies at school today. And nice costume, really wish you would have worn it to school.
By Yeah, your costume was incredible.
By brilliant!
By Jesus?
By no.
