A VERY VERY VERY Late Post

Hi everyone. I'm back to writing another post today. Honestly I have been repeating a pattern of telling myself that I will write a post later. Then when later comes I feel too tired and worn out to write one. In other words I have been lazy lately. Nothing much is going on other than school getting back in a week from tomorrow. Yay.

Tomorrow I am going to volunteer like I always do, and since it will be my last Tuesday volunteering there all of us are bringing soup and food. I'm not done volunteering there I will try and volunteer on Saturday's and such during the school year.

Also later this week is my first cross country meet on Saturday. I am pretty excited because I am way past running three miles without stopping. For example I ran five and a half miles today and not counting the one mile warm up I ran four and a half without stopping. Well, the thing is not stopping is not an issue. What is an issue is speed. I don't run really slow I run an average speed. But, racing long distances with an above average speed is spelling trouble. Oh well I shouldn't worry too much it's only the first meet.

Other than all that fun stuff, I created a second channel. I decided that would be my real channel. Because it seems that my first channel was more of a practice run for making those videos. For example my computer in it's current state cannot screen record without making it unbearably laggy. Also, I need a good program for recording and a decent headset. So basically, I won't be able to put any videos out until I get decent recording equipment. Oh well, I am not in a hurry at the moment.

By the way I am still working on my book. It's going good. I am currently on the sixth chapter.

Anyways that is it for today, I am sorry I have not posted in a while. I will write again sometime in the future(preferably tomorrow) to all you awesome people of the Internet. :) Bye! -PurplePainter321

Lucky Numbers and Running With The Bulls

Hello once again to my blog all you awesome people of the Internet! :) So I just got on the computer barely three seconds ago and saw that I had 333 pageveiws! Now, you may be wondering what is so special about that. It's that it's triple of the same number and I feel lucky to have stumbled upon it. Anyways back to my day today and other topics.

So I was in the car on my was to practice when I heard on the radio that a certain festival was coming to America... I give you Running With The Bulls USA! Okay, let me just say that I am so confused. What in the heck where these people thinking??? 90% of the people who get injured in this festival are amateurs a.k.a Americans who's egos, pride, dares, and drunkenness make them think they are just as good as the professionals. I think that once this officially arrives in America it's going to end badly.

Other than that my day has been pretty relaxing. I found on Demand that they released the third season of Doctor Who with David Tennant. I was excited for this because I personally have David Tennant as my favorite Doctor and this was one of the good seasons. But, my TV was glitching out and not letting me watch any of the episodes, so that made me really sad. Beforehand I realized something about Doctor Who... When David Tennant was the Doctor and they introduced the weeping angels he and Martha got stuck in 1969. What confuses me is that wen Matt Smith was the Doctor and they discovered the Silence they were also in 1969. So the Doctor crossed his own timeline, and the Universe didn't end and no paradoxes.

Afterwords I just watched a bunch of episodes of America's Got Talent on Demand.  My day wasn't too interesting though today. I will write on the days I have something to talk about or something exciting happened. So no promises on if I will write tomorrow all you awesome people of the Internet. Bye! :) -PurplePainter321

The Ice-Cream Trucks(hopefully NOT coming to theaters near you)

Hi! :) Okay, so I haven't posted in a few days and that is because that nothing really happened during those days. I basically sat in my room and listened to comedy radio while knitting. Or watching TV and knitting(it seems I have been doing a lot of knitting lately). Also, watching a lot of re-runs of Doctor Who or Seinfeld. But, I wanted to post today because I basically wanted to. Nothing much going on at the moment in my life though.

A few choice things happened this week. I worked extra hard at cross country, and did a serious lifting workout(123 weighted lunges, 3 reps of 10 bench-presses, 81 more weighted lunges, 100 singles, 53 more weighted lunges, 23 pushups, 20 weighted lunges, 5 burpees with a pushup, and finish with 56 lunges). We also did a couple speed workouts.

I watched a couple movies too. I think I already mentioned the Princess Bride. Yesterday though I watched the movie "Contact". It's about a group of scientists in the early 90's that make alien contact. At first I was skeptical thinking, well this is going to be a cliche with aliens again. It seems Hollywood has this mindset of how any movie with aliens can't possibly go wrong. Well, they messed up the "Man of Steel" with the stupid ending. I mean he saves the world how can someone NOT recognize him just because he's wearing glasses! Anyways back on topic the movie "Contact" was super awesome!!! It had a strong story line, all about struggles and loss, but don't worry not from aliens trying to destroy the world, because again if it was all about aliens coming and starting this big "epic" war with humans it would be a tired cliche. All in all it was a great movie that I would recommend to all of you.

Today, I didn't do all that much. I went to J-Dawgs for lunch. But, the most funny thing happened. A dude backed his truck into the bumper of the van apparently. Well, all we saw was someone in a t-shirt putting something in the car. At first I was like, "He must be advertising something." Luckily we got to talk to the guy and he took full responsibility. In turn we got a serious fender bender. Actually it was the bumper(bumper bender?). Then I headed to the running store to get some new cross country shoes because the ones I had were nearly two years old. After that I went home and listened to the radio and knitted, then watched TV and knitted(doing a lot of knitting apparently). Finally at the end of the day I wanted to break in the new shoes. So, I decided to take a quick run around my neighborhood. There was an ice-cream truck right down the road. I didn't want to have the ice-cream man thinking I was running towards the truck so I just ran on without making eye contact. About mid-run my legs started hurting for some random reason. But, I kept running. Near the end of my run I heard the first ice-cream truck that I encountered earlier, then I heard a second ice-cream truck a couple blocks over. I almost shouted(well, I did in my mind), "We're surrounded!"

After that fun spy movie(spy movie? "The Ice-Cream Trucks". Now that would be a stupid movie) experience I headed home and now writing a blog post. So, that is the end of this post today. I will write to all you awesome people tomorrow(no promises)! :) See ya! -PurplePainter321

Frozen Yogurt and Comedy Radio.

Hey all you super awesome people of the Internet! Luckily I am not as tired as I was yesterday, which is strange because I stayed up until 10:45 from watching the movie "The Princess Bride". That is the best movie ever. I was quoting it so much. The guy that plays Vazzini in the movie is also in the movie Admission, which I also saw on Sunday.

So, I have a few things to talk about today. For one I found out the actual date of the Comic Con that is close to where I live. It's in September and I definitely want to go. Brandon Mull is going to be there, as well as John Patterson! My two favorite authors! I want to figure out all the panels that are happening that day from art to books to gaming. I am so excited about this. :) Other than that no huge plans for the end of this year except for school. Surprisingly I am super excited to go back to school. I guess after the first month of Summer I need something to stimulate my mind, and Sudoku, Tetris, and Unblock Me(puzzle game), don't quite cut it.

Okay, so today I got my art cylinder supply holder thing. It turned out pretty cool, none of the colors were faded too much or any of that stuff. Again it could have turned out better, especially if I could have done it in pencil, oh well it still turned out pretty cool. Touching on a gaming topic(SKIP IF YOU DON'T PLAY MINECRAFT), I wanted to test something in Minecraft and I went to options and did a superflat world, redstone ready, all that stuff. And guess what happened I spawned in the superflat world and there was a land mass smack dab in the middle. A huge rectangle of jungle, taiga, and swamp biome that was there, you could see the ores and the water was chopped off at the edge of the width of the rectangle. Actually this is the second this has happened to me. But, I wrote down the seed and tried it out, the land mass wasn't there that time. So now I have this super awesome world that I don't want to delete like I did the first time this happened.

Anyways, today wasn't crazy busy or anything. It was good to get frozen yogurt too. I went to this place called U-Swirl. Guess what they didn't have Peanut Butter as a flavor! So I settled with vanilla. The reason I like peanut butter is because I get the yogurt then pile on every single topping that even has the slightest hint of peanut butter. I call it "The Peanut Butter Dream".  I found this awesome comedy radio station called 24/7 Comedy Haha. It is so cool! It gives you bits and pieces of different comedians and acts. On occasion I can recognize familiar comedians like Jim Gaffigan or Jerry Seinfeld. So I spent some time listening and laughing and also knitting(yes, I know how to knit). I also got to do some sketching while listening to the Twilight Princess game soundtrack.

So, that is pretty much it for today guys if I remember anything important I will add it in. I will write to all you awesome people of the Internet tomorrow! See Ya! :) -PurplePainter321

Late Post(Sorry)

Hey guys! I guess this post is a bit late today. Sorry, I have just been super exhausted lately. So I will do a quick recap of what happened the last couple days.

On Sunday it was pretty relaxing and I got a lot of typing in for my book. I also watched the movie Admission on Sunday too. It was good, I thought it was funny and all in all a good movie. That was actually the reason I was tired on Monday was because the movie ended at 10:30 p.m.. I had to wake up at 6:00 a.m. to go to cross country. At cross country on Monday I ran five miles and then did an optional lifting workout. Then I spent the day wandering and not knowing what to do. I spent a lot of time on the computer basically. I would be on the computer and then I would get bored, but I would still find a reason to be on the computer. Believe I get sick of the computer after a long period of time and also I can get tired of the computer if I am clueless to why I am on there.

I got extremely bored basically, but I did some typing for my book for about an hour. So the thing that made me tired today was cross country and volunteering. Now though I am still super tired after a two hour nap. I am tired right now because I ran four and a half miles at practice without stopping and then volunteered for about four hours cooking and preparing food. That made me exhausted so I took a nap that left me tired still.

Anyways I am sorry for the late entry and the length of this entry, I just am super tired and I forgot some of the stuff that happened yesterday and on Sunday. So I will definitely write to all you awesome people of the Internet tomorrow! :) See Ya! -PurplePainter321

"Busy" Day

Hello again to all you awesome people of the Internet! I hope your day has been good. Mine today was a little busy. I am still sore from the ab workout that I did in cross country too so that didn't help much.

Anyways my day started with me sleeping in at an unthinkable time! 8:57! I even hardly sleep in past seven normally. After that I got ready and headed to a car show with some friends. There were a lot of cool old fashioned cars that had been restored. My favorite was the blue and white '57 Chevy.

After the car show I hung out with my friend and her cousins that were from everywhere imaginable. I am a competitive person and I got into a lot of competitions with one of her cousins. From racing to throwing contests, you name it. When I smell a competition I get a little too cocky and overconfident.

Today I also sketched a really cool picture, I wish I knew how to upload pictures on this dang thing. :(

I wanted to have gotten in some writing, typing, or editing my book. Other than that my day has been pretty relaxing closer to the afternoon, I even got to watch the movie "42" on my Apple TV. It was a good movie, and there is no doubt that it was nominated for the Best Picture of the year thing already(probably). I would give it five stars personally.

Okay, so not much happened today other than a car show and my over competitiveness. So I will end today's post here and does anybody know how to load pictures on this thing? Anyways, I will write to all you awesome people of the Internet tomorrow! See Ya! :) -PurplePainter321

Farlands or Bust!

Hello to all you awesome people of the Internet! I am just going to tell you people my opinion on the movie R.I.P.D.

It was good. The concept was solid and it was hilarious. Did you know that Buzz from Home Alone played 'Fat Elvis' in the movie? That was super funny to me for some reason. So all in all the movie was good, but the only thing is that it could have been longer.

Also I wanted to mention a charity that is on going at the moment. It's located on a YouTube channel called Kurtjmac. He(Kurtjmac) has been walking to the farlands in Minecraft for awhile now(274 episodes) and is raising money for Childs' Play Charity. So I thought this was an amazing cause that all of you could check out. I wish the best of luck to Kurtjmac and this charity. By the way this series is called Farlands or Bust!(Subscribers are called Farlanders) :)

Other than that my day has been okay. Except for my morning. I did the most grueling ab workout ever! It is called the filthy 50. Fifty of every hard exercise straight in a row. Oh well what are you going to do. Then my day was relaxation, Seinfeld, and sketching. So I will write to all you awesome people of the Internet tomorrow! See Ya! :) PurplePainter321
