Christmas...

Dang, I'm bad at this.

Anyway, I had a pretty good Christmas. I got a lot of clothes, um... a book, a little drum thing,

(One of these little
drum things)




and a 12 month Xbox Live Gold.

And just recently I (Actually my mom) discovered one of the books I wrote (The 3rd from a 4 book series). It's about Spiderman. Eventually I'll post it on this blog. Eventually. Maybe.
I also found one of my drawring books from 2004. I think I'll scan the best ones in my computer and post it too.

Oh yeah, we got Mario Kart Wii for Christmas (Again. Two years in a row. Isaac broke it last time). I'm pretty much the master. I never lose. Almost ever. Once I had a bad day, but other than that...

If Julia is reading this, please pop that little sucker out right now. The past couple of days have kind of boring, so I need something to happen.

Heh heh, I just realized it'll be 2010 next time I blog.

Crazy.

Well, I'll blog again soon (Which I guess means 2-3 weeks).





Wednesday, December 16, 2009

It's been a while (Again).

Dang, I said I wouldn't let this much time go between blog posts again. But I did. Darn.

Anyway, I'm getting pretty darn good at Endorphin.

So, it's been 2 weeks and a day since I got braces, I think. They feel totally completely normal, like there's nothing in my mouth. Pretty awesome. I've been told that I don't even look different in them. Yup.

Oh yeah, Lillian wrote a book. Here it is.

Once upon a time there was a bear that lived in a shoe. It was a very stinky shoe. The bear’s name was Gree. And snow was starting to fall. So he decided to read a shoe – book, because all of his books were shoes! “Oh my! These shoe – books sure are stinky!” Then, his shoe – phone rang. He picked it up, and heard a bear say,
“Hi, Gree! I need you to go on a secret mission. 10 evil bears that live in a pair of stinky boy underwear just stole everyone’s candy!”
“Oh no,” Gree said back. “That’s terrible! What should I do?”
“I need you to sneak into their boy underwear house and get all the candy back!”
Gree got in his bear – mobile and drove to the boy underwear house.




Chapter 2


When Gree got to the underwear house, he sneaked inside. When he was inside, he saw an evil Bear Ninja! Luckily, the evil Bear Ninja didn’t know that Gree knew karate. Gree used his karate skills to defeat the evil Bear Ninja.

He walked past the defeated Bear Ninja, only to find a big strong evil bear.

“Arm – wrestle me, and I’ll let you through,” said the evil strong bear.

Good thing I did push – ups before I came here, Gree thought.

Gree arm – wrestled the evil strong bear, and won! The evil strong bear had to let him through.

When Gree got past the evil strong bear, he saw a bear that looked like Pablo. Uh – oh... thought Gree. I think I know what’s coming up next.



Chapter 3

“I challenge you to a game of Halo 3,” said the Pablo Bear. “If you can defeat me in Halo, I will let you past me.”

Gree hadn’t practiced playing Halo 3 before he came, but it turned out that even though it was his first time playing, he still beat the Pablo Bear with ease, because the Pablo Bear wasn’t good at Halo. Not good at all.

Gree had one more challenge. He had to jump across the moat with sharks in it. Gree backed up, then ran as fast as he could and

M P
U E
J D over the moat. He had made it!




He gathered up all the candy in a big bag and

M P
U E
J D back over. He ran out the door, hopped in his bear – mobile and drove back home. Then he gave all the candy back to the bears.





THE END

Well, I should probably get off now. Bye.

Actually, first, you need to know I've developed a terrible cough. I hope it goes away before the Christmas play on Saturday. I'm a soldier named Jackson, which is by far the coolest name in the entire play.


Fun Fact: Peyton Hillis is actually faster than Knowshon Moreno. SO WHY THE HECK DOES JOSH MCDUMMY NOT USE HIM IN SHORT YARDAGE SITUATIONS!? HE GOES WITH 210 POUND BACK KNOWSHON MORENO!! EVEN AFTER FAILING REPEATEDLY, HE STILL GOES WITH NO - SKILL MORENO!!! NNNGGHHHAAAUUUUGGGHHH!!!!!!!

Friday, December 4, 2009

Well, it's my 3rd day with braces. My teeth feel just dandy right now. In addition to that, I got a dollar for fixing breakfast for Pablo (Who still isn't up yet). And I get like, 4 or 5 dollars from Julia (Who still isn't up yet) for doing her vacuuming for her last week (And I might get 4 or 5 MORE dollars because I might do her vacuuming for her again this week). The new iCarly movie is tomorrow. iQuit iCarly. Sounds good.

So really, the only bad part about today is that Bungie is STUPID and made Grifball ranked! Why would they do that?! I would go into why ranked grifball is so bad, but you probably don't want to know. Oh yeah, and I can't play right now because Julia and Pablo are sleeping. And the Xbox is in their room. And I can't go down there without permission. Which they can't give if they're still sleeping. It really stinks.

However, I DID find a new hiding spot on The Pit. I'll have to try it out when Julia and Pablo get up.

Well, Pablo just got up and I asked him if I could go downstairs to bring the Xbox up, and he said "It's in the bedroom and Julia's sleeping." So I asked, "Can you bring it up, then?" You know what he said? "No," Jerk.

Braces?

Well, right now I don't have braces. In a couple hours, I will. How exciting. AND, I have to go the store after as punishment for not cleaning the kitchen last night. Why can't my punishment just be getting braces!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!

Oh well, I suppose it's not ALL bad. At least the Patriots LOST!!! IN A BLOWOUT!!! 38 - 17!!! AND TOM BRADY THREW 2 INTERCEPTIONS AND NO TD'S!!! LESS THAN 300 YARDS!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!! TOM BRADY IS OVERRATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh... bye.

Thursday, November 26, 2009

POOPING DOESN'T COUNT!!!!

Monday, November 23, 2009

Normally, I would be playing Halo right now. However, Pablo took the hard drive, wireless adapter and actual halo game with him when he went to Ludington.

Anway, I downloaded a program called "Endorphin" (Click on it). It's really cool. Although, to download a video onto this blog, I would need to buy the full version, which costs 1,000 dollars. It kind of stinks. Speaking of computer progams, I made a LSMaker video to keep from getting rusty.




I'm still hoping to make an extended fight scene. I might wait until it snows to give the video a "Hoth" type feeling... That might work.

In other news, I get to use a gun for the Christmas play!!!! I'm a soldier with Marcus, Josh, Keith and Jon. Giving me, Marcus and Josh guns might not be a great idea, especially considering my addiction - I mean, uh... my uh... my, well... How much I like Halo. My gun even has a scope on it.

In much less happy news, I'm getting braces on December 1st. They were going to put them on on Tuesday, but my mom said I could wait if I wanted, considering it's 2 days before Thanksgiving.

Well, I have to get off now. Hopefully I'll be able to blog more often now...

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Scroll to the very bottom and watch the entire video.

Another sweet lightsaber video

Greetings, everyone. It's been a while since I've blogged. Anyway, today is ''cleaning day.'' Hooray... Let's see... I only missed one question on my science test. I'm done with my cleaning. And it's only 11:41. It's time for Double Experience Weekend for Halo 3!!!! Here's my newest LSMaker video.




I guess I'm actually NOT done with my cleaning yet. I have to supervise Isaac cleaning the bedroom. Not fun.

Hopefully I'll be able to play Halo today. Hmm... What else is going on today? Kalie is going to be living with us starting today and ending Sunday...

Well this was the worst blog post EVER...

I have to go now.

Friday, November 6, 2009

Another LSMaker test.

My first video that I made using lsmaker with 2 blades!



Awesome, right?!

Hopefully I'll make an actually movie (More like a cheesy fight scene actually) with Pablo soon.

Sunday, November 1, 2009

So here's what some people said about the Broncos losing their FIRST GAME OF THE ENTIRE SEASON.

"hahahha broncos SUCK SO MUCH"

"B R O N C O S S U C K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Denvers going to lose 4 of their next 6 games"

Yeah, Denver sucks SO MUCH because they lost 1 game!

Wait a second...

"Elway was the most over hyped over rated QB in NFL History!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Okay dude, what does John Elway have to do with anything? (And he was one of the best ever, by the way... That honor belongs to Tom Brady)

Saturday, October 31, 2009

Happy Halloween!

So yesterday I got up, did my schoolwork (Notables: Science test, which I only missed one question), did my cleaning (Notables: I dusted the 4th bookshelf on the left side very WELL), then I got on the computer for a little bit (Notables: I went to NFL.com and read Broncos articles several times each), then I play Halo 3 ODST (Notables: I got third place in Living Dead! HECK YES!!! And I got 2nd or 1st in Living Dead Creeping Rockets. That's where the zombies are iinvisible and have swords and gravity hammers and the humans have Spartan Lasers and rocket launchers. Sounds really fun, right?)

Then I ate dinner (Notables: I had one of the best chewing performances in history) then I read (Notables: Uh... Calvin duplicated himself. Then he transmogrified his 5 duplicates into worms...) Then I watched iCarly (Notables: Jackson Colt danced with a bra on iCarly during the Random Dancing segment). Then I got back on the computer and made some awesome videos. I'll see if they'll upload or not.




Mmmm... Tasty...

Here's a picture:
















That's the "clash" effect when it's rendered. LSMaker is awesome.

Haha... Here's a - Never mind. Just watch.



Yup.

I'll post more videos later...

Tuesday, October 27, 2009

Hey guys. I just carved my pumpkin. It's a happy cyclops. It has one eye, and a HUGE grin.

I'm about to finish this level of Cartoon Wars. Yup. My Golem just decimated them.

I have to go now.

Wait. I have a costume party on Saturday. I'm gonna be Emo/Goth/Vampire.

Now I have to go.

Tuesday, October 20, 2009

Happy 15th Birthday, Laura!

Yup.

Anyway, check out the top left corner. Read it.

Sunday, October 18, 2009

LSMaker. Yeah.,

I can't wait for the Broncos game on Monday night!




Yeah.

Pretty awesome.

So I watched football today. Then I... hmmm... played Halo 3. Then I... hmmm... watched football. No, actually I did a lot of other stuff, too. HA!! Cutler intercepted!!

Bye.

Friday, October 16, 2009

So I need to stay away from non - swine flu people for one more day, but I feel better than I did yesterday (And I felt pretty much fine yesterday, except for the coughing).

ANYWAY,

I'm still going to miss my last game. :( Actually, :*( Is that a tear? Actually, more like >:(

Yeah.

Well, I just downloaded LSMaker on Julia's laptop so I can make a video instead of reading Broncos articles that I've already read 4 times in the past 5 minutes.

I think I'll start making a video now.

Thursday, October 15, 2009

I am right now in my mom and dad's room (The swine flu room) with Lillian. Lillian is watching Barney, and I'm watching iCarly on Netflix. It's the episode iTwins.

Oh, Lillian just left.

Well, goodbye.

Wednesday, October 14, 2009

Catching up

It's been a while since I've blogged.

So, let's see.

Julia got married...

That's about it. Well, in bigger, more important news, I missed my football game on Saturday because Julia got married. I guess I would have had two interceptions (I probably would've returned them both for TD's too) a fumble recovery, and because we got so far ahead, our defense got to play offense during the actual game. I was told by a reliable source that I would've been the RB, too.

I also had baseball tryouts (IN OCTOBER!!! DURING THE BRONCOS - PATRIOTS GAME!!! WHAT'S WITH THAT!?!?!) and I pretty much kicked butt. Well, I'm going to use the facilities, so here's a picture of me holding a blue lightsaber.






































Oh. Oops. I must've clicked on the wrong picture.
























Here's the real one.

Mmhmm.

I think I'll watch this video that showed up on my camera.
Let's see. Okay. I see a potato with a face drawn on it. Jon is holding it, and he says "Should I stab him now?" Then he begins stabbing it and says "It's what you get!"

The next video shows the potato lying on the ground outside the church. Keith says "Is it recording?" and Jon says yes. Keith now steps on the potato, crushing it.

The last video shows Ian throwing the potato remains into the ditch.

Nice...

Friday, October 2, 2009

Hi.

Hey. Yo. How's it going? For me it's going pretty well...

I'm almost done with next week's school. Yeah. I have an early game tomorrow. I have to be there at 8:30 so I have to leave at 8:00. Yeah. So my mom is scrapbooking in Midland, Dad, Pablo, Isaac, Lillian and Julia are watching Monsters vs. Aliens. I'm sort of watching too. It's actually pretty funny. I'm working on a video. That's all I'm going to reveal about it. It'll probably be about 1:30 long.

Well, I don't really have much to blog about. Bye.

Tuesday, September 29, 2009

jpwojeklscms

It was pretty awesome. At practice, I guess Coach Dauer was in a good mood. We were scrimmaging, and we tried to see how many yards our offense could get against our defense in four plays. Once we were done, Coach said that our defense could try playing offense for 4 plays, and our offense played defense. It was really fun.

Oh yeah! Check out this picture. (You should probably click on it to enlarge it).

(Actually, I think you NEED to enlarge it).

Saturday, September 26, 2009

Sorry, Pablo. I couldn't resist.



Yeah.

So anyway, I'm allowed to play Halo 3 now. It's really fun. I'm actually not that terrible at it for a beginner.

I have my night game today. Or actually tonight. We have a tailgate party at 6:00. Too bad Chris and Tom aren't coming. At least that's what the email said. But yeah, too bad.

Now I can use one of our cheers for the Broncos too. Ready to go 3-0! And then repeat. And get louder every time.

Wednesday, September 23, 2009

Jog... SPRINT!! Jog... Pushups, ten of 'em... jog... SPRINT!! Jog... get your feet chopping... DOWN! Chop chop chop... Down! Jog... SPRINT!!

That's a tiny preview of what I do during the 5 - minute death drill. Yeah, I got to do the 5 - minute death drill today. I was hoping we'd get to run up and down the hill or run the stadium, but the death drill is almost as fun. We also got to run TWO laps around the field after stretching instead of one. I was so excited. All this running is great, he said sarcastically. Actually, I do kind of enjoy it. Kind of.

Pablo has been... what's the right word for it... Remember when Laura was "Fizzy," if you live near me? Or actually how about right before Madden 10 came out. That's how he is about Halo 3 ODST. Yeah. Pretty much.

So I have my night game on Saturday. It starts at 8:30 pm. We have 12 minute quarters and a 10 - 20 minute halftime. We're usually there for about 1 hour and forty - five minutes. And it takes about 30 minutes to drive home. And maybe 5 - 10 minutes after the game before I go to the car. So... it'll probably be almost 11:00 when we're home. Unless I'm terrible at math. (Please comment and tell me if I am).

Okay, I have to go listen to some school stuff for tomorrow so my mom can scrapbook tomorrow. Yeah. Bye.


EDIT:

I forgot to mention. I got an interception in practice. Yeah. Interception. Booyah.

Sunday, September 20, 2009

Wow, Isaac should really be quiet right now.

Hey, I'm blogging from outside! Yep, I'm outside "Tending the fire" (Sitting here) and following the Bronco's game on the laptop. Well, I had my second football game on Saturday and we destroyed Cody Witzgall's team, 36-0.

I have allergies. I think. Yeah. I do.

Yesterday I played Madden NFL 10, High School Musical 3 Dance! Senior Year, Guitar Hero World Tour and NBA 2K9 (Julia accidentally rented it. She was going to rent a Tony Hawk game, but she grabbed the wrong game). And today I destroyed a guy on Madden 10 online. He was really bad. I am really good. Heh, I'm really WELL at Madden. Hahahaha...

Sooooo...



Yeah. Pretty much.

Thursday, September 17, 2009

It's been a while...

Hey everybody! Yes, I am alive, (But I don't think Hayley is. It's been four months since any blog posts). Anyway, the reason that I haven't blogged is because I've been busy. Here's how my typical weekly schedule goes.

Monday: wake up, do my schoolwork, play Madden 10, go to football practice, come home, watch/listen to the Tiger's game, go to sleep.
Tuesday: See previous day.
Wednesday: See previous day.
Thursday: wake up, do my schoolwork, play Madden 10, maybe play High School Musical 3 Dance! Senior Year, watch Survivor (Starting tonight), go to sleep.
Friday: wake up, do cleaning and schoolwork, play Madden 10/High School Musical 3 Dance! Senior Year, go to football practice, watch/listen to Tiger's game, go to sleep.
Saturday: wake up, go to football game, come home, play Madden 10, chill out the rest of the day doing who knows what, go to sleep.
Sunday: wake up, go to church, come home, play High School Musical 3 Dance! Senior Year/Madden 10/watch Tiger's game, later watch Bronco's game online, get in trouble for watching the Bronco's game online (Sometimes), watch the beginning of Sunday night football, go sleep.

Yeah. Uh-huh. Oh yeah. Anyway, I won my first football game. However, our FB fumbles a lot, our offense overall isn't that good, and our offensive line is - from what I've seen during practice - bad. But our defense (Me) is really good.

School is going WELL. Not good, but well. School is going WELL. WELL. Yeah.

I would tell you all about how much running I had to do at practice yesterday, but no one really wants to hear. I just want to tell everyone so they know that I'm actually in shape now. And now I can come home and eat a little snack without feeling guilty.

Hopefully I'll post a video of my awesome HSM3DSY game.

Saturday, August 29, 2009

I HATE when I'm - Let's see... - Quadruple - blocked

Yoyoyo Gabe in da house, ya'll!


Hahaha... Hopefully that last line sounded lame. That's kinda what I was going for...

So I'm assuming you've noticed that I put music on this blog. (Actually, TECHNICALLY it was Pablo, but whatever). Now all I need to do is catch some unsuspecting victim that has their speakers turned up all the way without realizing it and they go to this blog and then Whispers in the Dark is blasted through the house. That would be great... Especially if it was late at night and they're the only person still awake. That would be great. Yeah, that would be great...

Anyway, I already found out what position I'm going to be for football. I'm outside linebacker. It only took 3 practices for Coach to figure out what positions we're going to be. Crazy, huh? Yeah. Yeah it is. Yeah it is crazy. It is crazy.

Dang, I really should get started on that sweet video...

Friday, August 28, 2009

Correction

Sorry, it's actually "legostarwarsspoofingplusmuchmore.blogspot.com." I'll be posting a new video on legostarwarsspoofingpl - the blog above very soon. Or in like, 2 months. Hopefully in a couple days, though.

Anyway, I'll be going to Rose Hills on Sunday.

Yeah...

Thursday, August 27, 2009

Go to "StarWarsSpoofingPlusMuchMore.blogspot.com"

Seriously. Do it. Pabe Poncho and Gablo Gordita making videos. Fantastic. I'll have some actual videos soon. I actually have an idea for one already. It'll be pretty good.

Anyway, I had my first football practice in pads yesterday. It was fun. I was hitting pretty WELL, running pretty WELL, and catching and route-running WELL. Not good, but well. Because good would be grammatically incorrect. And you never want to say something grammatically incorrect. That wouldn't be good. It would be bad. Yeah. It would be.

Oh yeah! Football practice. Well, at the end we did something that my dad did for basketball that was called "The 5-minute death drill" or something like that. Four coaches made a square about 30 - 40 yards long on each side. They had us jog around once or twice, then we sprinted one or two sides, then we stopped, did pushups, then got back up and started jogging again, then we had to sprint, then we stopped and did leg lifts, then jogged, then sprinted, then stopped and did jumping - jacks, then jogged, then sprinted, then did leg lifts, then jogged and sprinted, then did pushups, then jogged then sprinted, then did leg lifts one more time, then we jogged a little big more, then we were done. All of this was done non - stop. It was exhausting.

Anyway, from now on I'll be posting Lego videos on StarWarsSpoofingPlusMuchMore.blogspot.com from now on. So go to it and click on "Follow." I would appreciate it.

Time for two totally un-related sentences.

I love most of the new songs by Skillet.

Guitar Hero broke.

Okay, I think that's all.

Peace out.

Monday, August 24, 2009

And now, your feature presentation...

Yup, it's time for the greatly-anticipated, long-awaited movie.



It actually turned out longer than I had expected. I was expecting it to end up about 2 minutes long, but it actually ended up twice as long as that.

I was going to show some behind-the-scenes look at some sets and characters for you to watch while you waited for the movie to come out, but I forgot about them. I think I'll show you later. By the way, the last few days, even though I didn't get much done on the video, were very exhausting, so it'll be possibly up to 2 or even 3 weeks before the next video comes out. Then me and Pablo plan on doing Star Wars spoofs with the Legos. You know, Robot Chicken Star Wars like.

Peace out.

Saturday, August 22, 2009

Trailer

Forget what I said earlier. Now I'm going to make episodes. Here's how it's gonna work.

I make a video, end it with a cliffhanger (Or in the first video's case, more like a 4'9" cliffhanger) and then you'll have to wait until I'm finished with the next one. Probably 3-4 days between each episode. Maybe a week if I'm having trouble.

So expect the first video sometime today. Sometime in the afternoon, probably no later than 3. All I have to do is record the voices and watch it a couple more times to make sure I didn't mess up, then I should be done. However, I may take some time to get Pablo up so he can do some of the voices.

Thursday, August 20, 2009

3 new videos coming soon!!

I might be able to finish 1 or 2 short videos tonight, but if not, expect to see 2 short videos and one longer one.

Video

I know it's not great, but it's the first time I've done one of these kinds of videos.




So yeah.

I should have another video up soon. The next one will be better. I think I'll add special effects, too.

Tuesday, August 18, 2009

First off, in case you haven't heard, Julia is having a baby.

Well, the answer to that one math-type problem from a few days ago is this: #&$ + !(^ = 570

Want to know why? Here's what what the numbers on your keyboard look like.

! @ # $ % ^ & * ( )
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0

You know how it has all those whatchamacallits above it? Yeah, well above the 3 there is a # and above the 7 there is a &. So replace the #&$ with the numbers below it and you will find that it says "374 + 196 = 570."


Let's see...

One of my new favorite words is Brouhaha.

Wow, I have nothing to blog about. Actually, here's something funny.

Last year for football my team color was red, and my team name was the Bulldogs. For baseball earlier this summer, my team color was red, and I didn't have a team name. This year for football, my team color is red, and my team name is the Dogs. Pretty much the only difference between my football team last year and this year is that I'll be wearing RED pants this year instead of silver.

Oh yeah, I actually got my football equipment on Sunday. You know what stinks? I have pretty much the EXACT SAME HELMET as last year too. It's hard to see out of when I'm trying to throw the ball.

Friday, August 14, 2009

I love Madden 10 so much...

WOOHOO!!! MADDEN 10 IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!! YAHOOOOOO!!!!! BOOYAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Anyways, here's what happened. I was allowed to go at midnight to Meijer to buy Madden 10. When Pablo and I got to Meijer it was 12:03 I think. So Madden 10 should've been out for a whole 2 minutes already, but when we got to the video game section, guess what. Madden 10 WASN"T THERE! So Pablo and I ran to the checkout, said hello to Pam Anderson, bought a snack and a drink... Oh yeah! Then we sprinted out to the car and went to WalMart. I got it there (Along with a free Xbox 360 water bottle) and I came home and played it. It was great! Then I slept right in front of the TV. Then in the morning I played for a while. Then just a little bit ago I played for a while... I also ate tater-tot casserole for dinner. Yum.

So Ian invited me over to his house after the movie night thing. He said "Then you can come over to my house and watch other movies, but they'll be stupid and we can make fun of them."

It was funny. I also learned that Ian sounds just like (Actually, he sounds exactly like) Marcus when he says "Hi Gabe," on the phone.

Yeah...

I was going to make a video review of Madden 10, but the camera I have makes videos that I can't use on Windows Movie Maker, (Wrong video file) and the only editing software that works with it can do just about nil. With the software that works, I can trim the beginning and the end of videos. To make a video review I need to be able to past clips together, record my voice and put it on the video, make titles and credits AND trim videos. Yeah, PMB sucks. I would just WRITE a review, but the only place I can put it is on this blog, and no one would read it...

Can you figure this out?

#&$ + !(^ = ______

Solution at bottom of page.










































































































Yeah... just kidding. I'll tell you sometime in the next week or so...

Thursday, August 13, 2009

1 GB to download a demo? WHAT THE CRAP!

I WAS planning on leaving for Meijer at 11:55 PM tonight, but Madden at 12:01 AM (The very MINUTE it comes out), sprint out to the car and have Pablo drive me home, play Madden from 12:10 AM to 2:00 AM, go to sleep (LOL yeah right. More like lay there until morning) then play it in the morning from 5 minutes after I get up until bedtime (Pausing occasionally to pee, poop, drink, and MAYBE eat). That's what I was PLANNING to do, BUT -

APPARENTLY I'm not going to be allowed to go to Meijer at 11:55 PM, OR play it from 12:10 AM to 2:00 AM. UNLESS -

I think I'll ask my dad instead. He seems more likely to say yes. After all, Madden NFL 10 only comes out once. I think I'll go play the demo for Madden NFL 10. WAIT -

APPARENTLY I don't have enough memory to download the FREE Madden NFL 10 demo.

AAAAAUUUUGGGHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I have to go. I'm about to poop my pants.

Tuesday, August 11, 2009

Here's a good joke:

You're so stupid, you put a quarter in a parking meter and started shouting, "Hey! Where's my gumball!?"

Anyway... Madden comes out on Friday. I can't wait. Unfortunately, Marcus and I won't be able to do our plan because Marcus will be in Canada... Oh well.

Apparently Pablo was on Xbox Live last night. I don't know how he got it hooked up though. I also can't get ON Xbox either, so I can't get the free Madden 10 demo. It really stinks.

Sooo...

I read 2 and a half books today, I think. I should be done with another book by the end of the day.

By the way, great blog post, Jon.

Wednesday, August 5, 2009

So, I'm just throwing this out there...

If me, Isaac and Lillian are on a "Most screens ban" how come Laura and Julia aren't? Because pretty much ALL they do is computer or TV or whatever... Again, just throwing this out there...

Anyway, this is crazy. Watch the entire thing, too.



I love the "Drummer."

Tuesday, August 4, 2009

Blagh...

Well, Jarrod Washburn makes his Detroit debut tonight. Hopefully I'll be allowed to watch it. If not, there's always radio.

Anyway, Madden 10 comes out soon. I can't wait.

Also, my football season starts on the 25th. Yaaay, he said sarcastically. I'm still in baseball mode, and whatever I do, I can't get out of it. People have suggested next time I play catch, use a football instead of a baseball, but whenever I do, I don't have any fun at all whatsoever. It kinda makes me wish I signed up for a fall baseball league instead of football. My mom keeps saying I'll get into football when the season actually starts, but I don't think I can perform well if I'm not already into football during the first day.

Oh well. Whatever. Okay, I have to poop now.

The Chronicles of Gabe Waiting For His Family To Be Ready To Leave For Church: Episode Two

Well, it's 8:52 and I'm waiting. Maybe I should play High School Musical 3 Dance! Senior Year.

Here's some gameplay:

Notice how in the bottom right corner it tells you how many in a row you got? Good. This guy got 230-something straight on Junior or Sophomore and I got 261 straight on Senior.

However, playing so much (And well) comes at a price. You lose something. Your weight! Booyah! Actually I'm sore too. My calves are sore. I can hardly run. However, I know as soon as I step on that dance pad my pain shall depart.

Well, I'm wearing stripy pants right now. Stripy pants and a red - YESS!!! FIRE IT UP!!! FIRE IT UP!!! FIRE IT UP!!! YEAH!!!! - shirt. It's been a while since I wore this outfit. However, last time I got dressed was the last time I wore this, even though weeks have passed.

Holy cow, where'd Kalie go!?!?! OMIGOSH SHE'S MISSING - Oh wait. She doesn't really live here. Okay never mind.

nownownownownow neeeeeeeeeeeooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwww! FIRE IT UP!!!!!

So I'm getting bored, but I have nothing better to do than blog. You know, I haven't seen a blog post from "Thetruelifeofpabloandjulia.blogspot.com" in a long time. Three months, actually. Or "Christinehm.blogspot.com." Maybe Julia, Pablo and Hayley died or something...

So we watched a movie yesterday. It had a bunch of Christian comedians. One guy comes up and the first thing he says is "So I bet you're all wondering, 'What race is that guy anyway?'" Then he - here I'll just let you watch it.



And here's Thor Ramsey:


Turn in up, though. It's a quiet video.

I have to go now. Not to church though. I have to GO...

jldsglsdgldslsg

Just in case you didn't know, I'm the best person in our house (Or of anybody I know that's ever tried it) at High School Musical Dance! Senior Year. I got 2,000,000+ points on I Don't Dance (No one else has gotten over 800,000, and I was on the hardest of three difficulties). I also had a 261 uhh... step? long streak that I went without missing a step. I win at that game. I beat it in two days.

Now we have the Wilsons and Schnabels (-Doug) over. Unfortunately I'm very bored. That's why I'm blogging. Anyway, I'm hoping to have Marcus spend the night... I don't know how that's gonna work out...

So I went to game night at Bradley's house last night. At first I didn't want to stay the whole night (Until 10:00 the next morning) and I decided to leave a midnight. I got there at 7:30 pm or so and Bradley, Ian, Keith, Andrew, Marcus, me and Jon all played Diplomacy. About halfway through the game I called Dad to ask if I could stay the whole night and he said no because we were bringing the Koperski boys home too, and he didn't want to have to drive out there that night and then again the next morning so only got to play a three-way-truce-shortened version of Diplomacy and then get shot several times, figure out the controls to the video game, shoot Marcus a couple times, get shot a couple times again, then I went home and slept in the living room because Isaac and Ryan were being loud in our bedroom and I fell asleep at about 2:00 am and woke up at 6:02, then I chilled out for an hour and a half (I don't even remember what I did) then at 7:30 I played HSMDSY for 3 hours. Dang, that was a long sentence!

Okay I'm gonna go watch a movie now. Bye!

Thursday, July 30, 2009

First: HSM Sing It. Now: HSM Dance! Senior Year.

I just played a game of High School Musical Dance! Senior Year. I got an A+ on the song Work This Out. Booyah!!

I'll post videos of it later. Hopefully. Maybe not. Time to eat pizza (No thanks to YOU, Jon! lol I'm not really THAT mad. Just moderately mad).

Wednesday, July 29, 2009

Hey, Hey! I got an idea! Let's vote on my poll!!

Kalie is pretty much living here for the week. She's had like 8 cheese sandwiches too. Way to make yourself at home, Kalie!

Anyway...

I stumbled upon a great song called "Fire it Up" by Thousand Foot Krutch. I'm listening to it now. They released the playlist for NHL 10 (Or 2k10, I don't really care cuz' I'm not buying it) and I noticed a song by Thousand Foot Krutch. I clicked on it and listened to part of it. It was really good! So yeah...

The Tigers have been slumping. Their offense just can't get on a roll!

And while I'm griping about sports, I'm going to again, mention that Tom Brady isn't great!! He's good, yeah, but not great! The only good things about him are that he's accurate and has a DECENT arm. Just like Drew Brees, only Drew Brees doesn't have the receiving corps that make him look great like Tom Bad - errr... BRADY does. He also doesn't have the defense that Tom has! If Tom Brady had the defense that Brees has, he would SUCK!!! His defense keeps him in games, unlike Drew Brees. Brees constantly has to win in shootouts, and still has success.

And you know what else bugs me? When people complain all the time! They complain about the least little thing! If something bugs them, they never let go of it! They just go on and on, long after anyone is interested! It's just complain, complain, complain! People who gripe all the time really drive me nuts! You'd think they'd change the subject after a while, but they never do! They just keep griping until you start to wonder, "What's wrong with this idiot?" but they go on complaining and repeating what they've already said! You know what? I bet they're not very self - aware. Actually, that's ANOTHER thing that gets on my nerves!

Lol, yeah I know.

Anyway, now I'm listening to Monster by Skillet. I listened to Take Me As I Am by FM Static and The Motions by Matthew West and Fire It Up by Thousand Foot Krutch again. Now I'm listening to The Motions by Matthew West.
They're all good songs. If you get the chance, listen to all of them.

Tuesday, July 28, 2009

Vote

So I watched the movie "Knowing" last night.



Looks pretty good, right? It was - until the last 1/2 hour of it. The ending could not have been worse. The first hour and a half were great though. If it wasn't for the ending it would be my favorite movie.

Anyway, I can't give away what happens in case you're planning on watching it. Even though the ending sucks, I would still recommend it.

Dang, this blog post is more like a movie review than anything else.

Remember Jono, send the pizza!!

Monday, July 27, 2009

The Lake Sharks rise again! This time with our new member: Agent JoshPityer*

The Bapnic was fun (See Ron Benson's Facebook status). It rained like crazy, though. However, the rain was quite fun. Anyway, I'm still waiting for my pizza to get here. Jono said he would mail or email me a piece. I'm waiting for Marcus too. He said he'd mail me a piece. Speaking of Marcus, I went to his house today. I went swimming, then we talked and ate and threw apples from their tree, then ate some food, then talked... It was fun.




Okay, you HAVE to watch this one. All of it.







*Be sure to run the "Josh" and the "Pityer" into one word. Don't say "Josh Pityer," say "JoshPityer, as if it's one word.

In a nuclear apocalypse, Laredo, Texas would be devastated.

Wow, our cat is awesome. First, in case you didn't know, Lucky has been knocking on the door to get in. We would be sitting at the table eating, and we'd hear a knocking noise. We'd open the door, and in would come Lucky. Just a few minutes ago, I was walking past the garage door, and I noticed it was slightly open. Lucky and Bongo were right in front of the door. Bongo had just come in the door. To make a long story short: Our cat let our other cat inside the house.

Okay, so you know the website "HowManyOfMe.com", right? If you don't, check out my last blog post. Anyway, they have another web site, "ApocaLuck.com." It tells you if your city would survive a nuclear apocalypse. Let's check the results.

HowManyOfMe.com

Dang... my mom beat me to it. Oh well. I'm one of a kind (At least in the U.S.A.).



HowManyOfMe.com
LogoThere are
1
or fewer people with the name "Gabe Negranza" in the U.S.A.

How many have your name?


How many people have YOUR name?

Anyway, I looked up Jono Bacon and there was 1, but I looked up JON Bacon and there was 19. I looked up "Nicolae Carpathia" and it said there was 1 or less. There were 4 Judd Thompsons, 18 people named Vicki Byrne, 22 Lionel Washingtons and 44 people named Ryan Daley. There were also 3 people named Leon Fortunato. Okay, enough of Left Behind: Kids. Time for American Idol!!

58 people named "Kris Allen"
134 people named "Adam Lambert"
2 people named "Danny Gokey"
1 person named "Allison Iraheta"
1 person named "Anoop Desai"
1 person named "Lil Rounds"
8 people named "Scott MacIntyre"

And there is only one Placido Polanco in the U.S. (What a suprise).

And lastly:

(Bet you didn't know THIS, Julia) There are 36 people named Pablo Ruiz in the U.S.

Oh, yeah. There is only one of everybody in our family. I find it hard to believe of the 166,650 people named Gabriel, I'm the only one with the last name "Negranza". Actually I'm kidding. I wasn't suprised at all.

The Chronicles of Gabe Waiting For His Family To Be Ready To Leave For Church: Episode One

Wow! That title sure is a mouthful. Pablo's party was pretty fun. Unfortunately, the Tigers lost two games straight. So I'm just sitting here waiting... Be sure to check out my video if you haven't seen it yet. Just scroll down... Oh, I just remembered. Beach Day is tomorrow! Oh. Uh-Oh. I'm going to go do some crunches now. Bye!

New Video.

TA DA!




It kinda lost the "NINJA" theme, but I think the music is FANTASTIC!!

New video coming soon.

I'm working on a new video like the last one, but this one will have music. (The music will probably me a little muffled though).

Tuesday, July 14, 2009

I'm sick...

Hello. I either have allergies or I'm sick. Either way, I don't feel good. BUT - I can almost do a flip on the trampoline. Football sign ups are tomorrow. Practice begins August 25th. Well, I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be on right now, but whatever. Here's a video I just made. (It only took like, 15 minutes).




Okay... I'm waiting for my video to process, so I'll make a new poll. Wait, it's not working... Oh! My video is ready. Okay, I fixed the poll. After you watch the video, vote.

Monday, July 13, 2009

New saying. Obvioulsy made up by Pablo.



PRACTICE MAKES PABLO!


(Actually, he said "Practice makes me!" but whatever).

Tom Brady = Mediocre

Tom Brady shouldn't even be on the list "Top Ten Quarterbacks of all time", much less #3. Here's why.

The good about Tom Bad - errr, Brady:
1. He's pretty accurate
2. He's pretty aware

The things that prove that he's overrated:
1. His arm isn't as strong as people say
2. His coach cheats
3. It's easy for him to complete passes - the system his coach uses guarantees that at least one receiver will be open on every play
4. His running game is good, so the opposing defense has to bring extra blitzers, freeing up some more receivers
5. He's not the comeback king everyone says he is (Remember SB XLII?) and all the SB's he HAS won were by the defense or his kicker
6. His O-line is amazing, and gives him more time in the pocket than other QB's
7. His defense is good, so when he makes mistakes, his defense makes sure the other team doesn't capitalize on it
8. He is probably the most immobile QB of all time
9. He isn't amazingly aware (Again, remember SB XLII?)
10. His receivers are amazing
11. The system he plays in uses the shotgun formation a lot more than other teams, and passing from the shotgun is easier than passing from under center

Let's see...
2 good things, and uh... let me count... Oh! Oh my! Good Heavens!
11 things that prove he's overrated! Gasp!

Yeah, Peyton Manning is the best.

Friday, July 10, 2009

I'm baaaack... I know everyone is SOOOO HAPPY that I've returned.

I just got back a couple hours ago and I'm tired. We caught a big bigmouth bass. It was big. I'll upload some videos soon, but I'm kinda too tired (or lazy) to do it right now. Rose Hills was pretty fun. I caught a ton of fish, but no huge ones. We played Mafia with the family that owns the Resort. It was fun. I got really sick though, one day. See, these people were using the boat that me, Pablo and Julia usually go in, so we went in a different boat. It wasn't very stable. It would rock back and forth with a soft movement, and while we fish, we move around a LOT. Needless to say, I was very dizzy that night. I got some cool sunglasses too. I have a ton of bug bites on my feet and legs even though I put on a ton of bug spray.

Anyway, hopefully I'm about to go play MLB 2K9, so here's a sweet video my uncle made. It's a time lapse movie.


Monday, July 6, 2009

See you on Friday.

Well, this will be my last blog until Friday because I'm going to Rose Hills!!

Saturday, July 4, 2009

Today was interestingly oddly moderately sadly suckish day. Yet somehow not bad!

The Bottled Water Blitz was - in a word - interesting. It was interesting when Jon, Ian, Keith and I were "handing out" our 7th bottle of water when we noticed that no one else from Grace was around. It was interesting when we walking all around the middle - grounds and STILL didn't see anyone. It was interesting when we finally found Trina and found out that everyone else was already in downtown Bay City. It was interesting when I found out that my family didn't even go with everyone else. It was interesting when we finally handed out all of the water and I found out that my family had already set up at the fireworks placed. It was interesting when the Schnabels decided to go to a candy store before swapping kids (Me and Kalie) and we tried chocolate with chili powder or something like that and other spicy spices on it. It was odd that though the fireworks were good they left me moderately sad (I know why and you don't!!! HAHA!!) It was suckish that I didn't get to play MLB 2k9 today.

I'll try to blog tommorrow, but if I can't my next blog will be on Saturday probably because we're going to Rose Hills on Monday.

I HATE HICCUPS AND IAN CUMMINGS IS AWESOME

I've had the hiccups all day. Pretty much literally. I got the hiccups in early afternoon, had them for a long time, then they finally went away then only a little bit later I got them again, then they went away when I went outside then as soon as I sat down I got them again. It really stinks.

We're going to Rose Hills on Monday. It's gonna be fun.

I just took THE best shower ever. It's weird. It was the most... I can't think of a word for it... the best shower ever, but I don't know why. I could've (And would've) stayed in there for at least an hour longer but Julia said she was waiting to get in.

Well, it's time for me to go be obsessed about Madden.

EDIT:
NOOO!!!! WHY IS THE WORLD SO CRUEL!?!?!??!

EA Sports President Peter Moore announced today that Madden NFL 10 Lead Developer Ian Cummings would miss the rest of the current development cycle after being diagnosed with an advanced case of carpal tunnel syndrome.

"It was a tough call, but we decided we couldn't jeopardize the rest of his career just for the benefit of these final few weeks of development," Moore said. "Of course Ian, being the trooper that he is, wanted to keep working, but his potential is just too great to take that risk."

It is believed Cummings developed the condition while typing non-stop to answer the estimated 2,400 questions asked of him every day in the OS Madden forums. Security video from inside the EA Sports office appears to show Cummings wincing in pain as he types out a response to yet another question about facemasks.

"I just felt it was important to answer all of the questions the community has, even if it is the tenth time I've discussed the color of the trim on the Dolphins' alternate jerseys," Cummings said.

The injury forced EA Sports to dip into their depleted minor league system, calling up Dennis Waverly, who last worked on NASCAR Thunder 2003, to replace Cummings.

"Yeah, football, I've seen that on TV a couple times," Waverly said. "That Vinny Testaverde is one heck of a player."

Cummings is scheduled to have corrective surgery performed next week by Dr. Lewis Yocum, and is tentatively scheduled to return just in time to get flamed for not rating Knowshon Moreno high enough by some guy with 3 posts.

R.I.P. Billy Mays. You will be missed.



Yes, it's true... *Sniffs and wipes away tears* ...Billy Mays has died.

Well, anyway! Today is the last day my Grandma, Grandpa and Grammy are here. Zak left last night at 3:00 AM. He's still driving right now, actually. Anyway, I don't really have anything else to tell you about. The graduation party was fun, kinda boring... I finally lost to Andrew in Madden 09 for the 360. Dang.

Friday, June 26, 2009

Oh yeah. Here's Todd Jones (Former Tiger's closer) the wearing a Magglio Ordonez jersey and wig during a rain delay.


He's imitating Magglio hitting a walk off home run in the ALCS.

Tiger Woods is awesome.

WOW!!!!!!!

Too bad ML B 2K9 doesn't hae Joe Morgan...

Grammy bought me MLB 2K9 for the 360. It's pretty much awesome...

Well, I still have yet to eat my first - I don't know if this is how you spell it - lumpia.

TEN RANDOM THINGS:
1. I didn't put my contacts in yet.
2. I'm listening to Rebirthing by Skillet right now
3. My hair is sticking up in the back because I went to bed with damp hair
3. It's 9:45 AM
4. I bet you just realized I did two #3's
5. If you noticed before reading #4, I need to wait longer to do this again
6. Yawning
7. I bet you just yawned or will yawn in a second.
8. Now I'm listening to Whispers in the Dark (Acoustic version) by Skillet.
9. I'm gonna have a butt - war on the trampoline today.
10. You had no idea I actually listed 11 things.

Wednesday, June 24, 2009

100 posts!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I just blogged about 5 minutes ago, but I have big news.

I just had my first (I don't know how to spell it, and I doubt you'd be able to figure out what it said [unless of course you're a family member] so I'll just spell it how you say it) Shoo Pow.

Quick update

Well, everyone is here now, and I'm getting very hungry just being in the kitchen. I think I'm going to weigh 120 pounds by the end of the week.

Monday, June 22, 2009

Guess what I've been doing.

1. Playing catch with Uncle Zak (Which involved jamming my finger, trying to throw left-handed, having Uncle Zak throw the ball to me and me trying to kick it while it was in the air and then catch it before it hit the ground, and trying to make one-handed catches)

2. Sweating in the intense heat

3. Going on Uncle Zak's sweet mini-laptop

4. Watching iCarly

5. Jumping on our trampoline

<------------ VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uncle Zak is getting here today!! Then Grandma, Grandpa and Grammy (Who has never met Lillian or even visited us in Michigan) will get here around midnight tomorrow.

So I lost my first game (Not counting the ones I've simulated) yesterday. I was up by a few runs in the seventh inning and Joel Zumaya gave up 4 runs. I couldn't come back.

There's supposed to be a new Madden 1o blog today, but since E3, they've been blogging on Tuesdays. The started out saying they'd blog every Sunday, then it turned to Monday, and it appears to have gone to Tuesday now. Oh well. It's going to be so good that I don't mind too much. Except for their "Running" animation. It makes me want to puke. I liked the old one - the one that almost made me not buy Madden 09 - much better.

Saturday, June 20, 2009

I think this is 96 or 97 posts now...

Well, the wedding reception was not as boring as I thought it would be, but still moderately boring. The food was pretty good, though, except for the mashed potatoes. They had like... no flavor. Isaac, Christopher and Lillian rocked out on the dance floor. I obviously dance WAAAY better, but I don't like to dance in front of people.

Ten random things:
1. I just got done listening to You Give Love a Bad Name
2. My left contact is really bugging me
4. Isaac just screamed in my left ear, so I slapped him in the face
5. You probably just realized I skipped #3
6. Now I'm listening to Dare You To Move
8. The Tigers hit 4 home runs last night
9. You just realized I skipped #7
10. You didn't realize I only listed 8 things

Well, it's time for me to go eat brunch now.

Friday, June 19, 2009

It's really hot today...

Well, I WAS going to blog about what I did yesterday, unfortunately, all I remember doing is playing baseball and watching the Tigers game. Actually, that's probably all I really did, except for read and play a couple games of Major League Baseball 2k8.

Anyways, I'm going to a wedding reception later today. Fun, he said sarcastically.

Okay, before I go: Madden 10 for the ps2 and Wii and psp won't have John Madden in it!!! YES!!! Unfortunately, you get sick of the new guys equally as fast. Tom Hammond sounds very... I don't know how to say it... he sounds not good. He just doesn't have a voice for video games. His sentences don't blend very well, I guess. And Chris Collinsworth is as annoying as John Madden, unless you don't play very often.

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

94???!!!

Okay, according to my dashboard on Blogger, it says I have 100 posts, but it turns out that this is my 94th, I think.

Nothing to say today...















Tuesday, June 16, 2009

My 100th blog post!!

Yes, it's my 100th blog post. Of course, my mom has almost 1000 blog posts (I think it's about 800 right now) so it's not THAT amazing.

ANYWAYS...

Yesterday I woke up, ate breakfast, read some Left Behind: Kids and then went outside and spent about an hour filling up about 30 water balloons with Julia and Lillian (Pablo and Isaac were using the other hose to fill up their own balloons). Then Laura came out and helped start to fill up the inflatable pool. Then Julia, Laura, Lillian and I demolished Pablo and Isaac with water balloons. Then we used the Slip-N-Slide for a while. Then we laid down on the grass. I got sunburned. It really stinks. But I'm not going to tell you where I got burned, so that you can't slap my sunburn. Actually Laura will probably tell you if you ask, but I'm still not telling you.

Here's the video of my inside the park homerun:


(I actually come up to bat at :45)

And here's Taylor Hicks singing Taking it to the streets:



One more thing: My abs hurt and I didn't do anything at all. No situps/crunches or anything! Mysterious...

That's about all.
