Quick post

Just a quick post about Youtube and videos. I'll be making more videos from now on, because of a movie club, and the fact that I got Vegas Pro 10, and that now I have a Youtube account. Subscribe, join the club, and watch this promo video which I made for another club call Fight Against Poverty:

Anime Revelation

Just a quick post, to keep updated. Really, blogs are a way to journal, but frankly, I'm sucking at it right now. And it's funny, because I have over 500 posts and I've been blogging regularly for the past two years. Just goes to show how much school makes you do.

Any ways, getting really into anime. And what's funnier, getting into watching anime voice actor panels........ Like Vic Mignogna, Todd Haberkorn, Travis Raped Bacon, I mean, Willingham, those people. You probably have no idea what I'm talking about, even if you're into anime. Because what I find is that lots of anime lovers don't watch dub, because it' easier to find subbed. And even if they do watch dub, they don't care about the voice actors. Well, I do, and they are really awesome and funny, and now I really wanna go to a con! I WANNA GO TO A CON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA MEET THE AWESOME VOICE ACTORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you know that they also postponed or like cut funding for D Gray Man dub, so there's like no dub after episode 52? Just because it's not that popular?? How can Allen not be popular? :'(

And final part of FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST BROTHERHOOD DUB IS OUT!!!!!!!!!! I watched the scenes that I really liked, including ED AND WINRY'S MOMENT IN THE END, gotta say, sounds great in English, makes more sense in way too!!!!!!!!! I was near tears, near tears..... And the movie's out, FMA and the Sacred Star of Milos, but I don't wanna watch it until it's in theatres here and English dubbed, and that's like early 2012, so watch me squirm until then.

 Yes, I like Ouran High School Host Club. I know, you are allowed to yell at me as if I'm insane, but it's actually not that bad. 

Oh, and check out Graceling by Kristin Cashore! It's sorta like, before there was Katniss, there was Katsa.

Post once in a while

Hey guys, know I haven't posted in a while. Just, I never get the time, really, to do anything properly. So here are some updates: https://sites.google.com/site/sophietribiani/ Nope, just kidding, I'm taking you to my liar at my site. How else am going to get people on there?

Any ways, can't wait for grade 10 and Pre IB. That's it.

Oh, right and this:

Second thing I like besides dubstep: videogame soundtracks. Beautiful.

Long time no see

I've pondered on not posting, forever, but I decided it's still a good place for me to recede to. It's writing, not the huge epics I usually do, but just a light journal writing, and you never know when it's going to come in handy.

Any ways, I just want to say that I have not had a summer. I'm back in school. Somewhat. I'm taking PE online, like I told you before. It's actually harder than it sounds, considering how you have to do at least 2 hours of physical activity a day. Langara takes 20 minutes, 2 HOURS! That's a long time. But I've started going to basketball summer school thing, and that'll help, considering how it's 4 HOURS A DAY! Then after that, badminton.

Yesterday, we had an Epic Meal Time. If you don't know what that is, here: http://www.epicmealtime.com/

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9FRSghXhDM This is the one we made.

I didn't eat any of it, it's like a heart attack on a plate. But I did help make it at Eddy's house. Almost every one went. IT WAS FREAKING HILARIOUS! I think only Evan finished his slice. It was fun to make though.

Pic of the week:

In love with D Gray Man, again. After I started getting into Fullmetal, again, I went back to old times and remembered how my friends Alison and Jade got me into D Gray Man as well. Fullmetal will always be my Titanic in anime, the one that I will love forever, but D Gray Man's great too!! I'm actually, I think, starting to build a crush on Lavi, or maybe I just don't know myself. But I'm pretty sure I'm building a crush on Lavi, aha, never mind. In case you don't know, he's the one with the spiky red hair, eye patch, and scarf. IDK, he usually isn't one I'd go for, and frankly, Kanda, with his dark past and TRAVIS WILLINGHAM DUBBING HIM, seems to appeal to me too. But somehow, somehow, Lavi's funny remarks and a light attitude does it for me. Usually, I don't like those guys, I mean, Jace, Peeta, Percy.... Wait, now that I think about it, I do fall for the funny ones. Oh gods, one day, I might actually marry someone like Chandler!!! It's not a bad thing, though, so I'm happy.

Last day of Synergy

It truly was a great day today. Let me just say that I've really appreciated everyone in Synergy for making these two years so great. We're loud, we're weird, we drive every sane person insane. And yet, you could definitely feel the love. I really hope we could stick together in Pre-IB, hopefully put us in the same class? We're like a huge, dysfunctional, family, but whatever happens, still a family.

Pic of the day:

WE SHOULD HAVE A SYNERGY CLASS PHOTO!!!!!!!!!!!

STUDY

Just studying, lots and lots of studying. And helping Geoffrey out with Spanish, and the convo somehow veered to friends?? o.O

Pic of the day:

Cute picture of Riza and Winry. No time to watch Fullmetal stuff, so this is best I can do to satisfy my needs.

Anorexia

Today, we saw a girl at school that had legs thinner than my arm, and I've got something to say about it.

ANOREXIA AND OTHER EATING DISORDERS IS NOT COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's just not, okay? You see the posters and the ads about girls in modeling or Hollywood. Look closely, none of them are exactly what the girls look like. Photoshop technology has become something that any one can use, and you could lose twenty pounds with a slash of a digital eraser. NOT EATING IS NOT GOING TO GET YOU THAT FAR!!!!! I'm up for healthy living and stuff like that, heck, I've always had a weight problem, and I continue to think of new ways to lose a few pounds. That's fine, as long as your old enough and you can stay in control.

Don't not eat, just change your diet. More exercise, that's the key. Get out their and jog, play ball. Not eating can seriously bring you to the brink of death.

I want every one to remember this, not only girls, every one: Not eating is NOT THE ANSWER! Legs that are the size of arms are NOT PRETTY. If you're happy, glowing, healthy, that's what draws people to you, not a wad of make-up and a fake, boney smile. And ALWAYS keep this in mind: BEAUTY ON THE INSIDE MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL ON THE OUTSIDE, BEAUTY JUST ON THE OUTSIDE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not pretty!!!!!! This is just horrible!!!!!!!! And click on that link! Click it! Keep yourself informed of these things. Keep control. Every one has got things that they don't like about themselves, yeah, but remember, people don't look at the clothes you wear or even what you look like. They like you, they see your eyes and what's inside. People and their crazy ideas.

SOME ONE BEAT ME!!!!!!!

OMGS SOME ONE BEAT ME TO MAKING THE VIDEO FOR BUSKERFEST!!!!!!!!!!! WITH THE PHOTOS THAT I TOOK TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Aha, I'm going to make my video any ways. Nothing can stand in my way of movie making.

Pic of the day:

OMGS FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST SACRED STAR OF MILOS WILL BE OUT IN THEATRES HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In 2012, yeah, but still, OUT IN THEATRES!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get to watch Ed and Al ON THE BIG SCREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, around the same time as the Hunger Games, City of Bones (If they hurry up on production), now Fullmetal, and the ultimate, since I missed it when I was one, I GET TO WATCH TITANIC ON THE BIG SCREEN TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND AROUND THE SAME TIME!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!! I don't really like how precise the animation is though, it's too.... I don't know, high def, the lines are too prominent. But still, it's great!

Movie Project

Quick post, because it's 10:30 and I've been working all day.

I finished my movie project for AS today, and very happy with the result. I'll try and get the video online if I can, but right now, best I can do on my computer is DVD. But you can read my three page analysis. BTW, it's about the Shining, Psycho, and Misery. Three classic horror films about psychological disorders.

Pic of the day:

Need sleep, sorry.

Good Pics

Okay, I got some good pictures from BuskerFest. And since I'm so tired from yesterday and it's like 10 now, and I still need to finish up my Math, I'm just going to post some pictures, hope you like!

French Oral

Okay, so we have this huge French Oral on Thursday, but I think I'm pretty prepared. That's all.

We buskered a bit today, but the Science test ate a lot into lunch. In fact, some really passionate people, like Geoffrey, stayed the whole lunch. I got hungry, and I didn't care THAT much.

Pic of the day:

Jamie Campbell Bower cast as Jace, and all I have to say is, and I'm sure that Bower is a good actor and all, but: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I just hope there's still a way Alex Pettyfer can get the role. Ever since the book came out, all fans have been agreeing on Pettyfer. They don't know that they've been starting an army, and they will get it, I don't even need to do much about this.

Flashmob

Flashmob: a mob with flash bombs

Flashmob: a mob flashing the surrounding people

Our flashmob was neither, and thank the gods for that, really.

It was fun, wouldn't say that it wasn't. Though I think sticking to Buskering might work a little better. I got 75 cents from the flashmob, that's not a lot, and I don't think others got so much either. It was too much work for too little result.

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Cute Fullmetal Fanfic

Okay, so a little story popped into my head, a Fullmetal Fanfic, hope you like it.

Welcome Home

She tapped her fingers on the cold metal screw on the wooden bench, waiting to hear the tracks rumble from the nine o'clock train. The station was beginning to fill up as the time grew near. She's been waiting since the afternoon, and now the sun was nearly covered by the far away mountains in the north. She couldn't help but smile. Winry Rockbell always waited.

The train approached fifteen minutes behind schedule, screeching to a halt right in front of her. Winry got up abruptly and took a breath. The train blew out its steam, filling the crisp night air with warm, white, dust. It made it harder to see the people vacating the train. She could only spot a shape, but it was enough for her. The rustling hair, the suitcase, and the slight mechanical limp, probably only visible to her eyes, startled her. It's been more than once that they'd come home all beaten up, his automail torn to pieces, and she was afraid he hadn't lost his old habits.

As he approached, the more characteristic features started to become prominent: his dirty blond hair, just a shade darker than her own, his pony tail swinging in the wind, and his golden eyes gleamed with happiness and excitement to be home. His expression, though, showed more of a bored and tired look. Knowing him, how his expression was always a mask for something deeper that he was to scared or embarrassed to let out, Winry dismissed it.

Her hand automatically shot up to wave, "Welcome home!"

Edward Elric peered in her direction, yawned, and walked towards her. "Yeah," he said lazily, "I'm home. Can we sit?"

Before hearing Winry's reply, Ed was already past her and heading towards the bench on the far side of the station. Winry rolled her eyes and followed.

"Sure."

"So," said the former Fullmetal Alchemist, not even bothering to look back, "Is Al back yet?"

"No, his train's supposed to get in tomorrow, you can rest a bit before then," Winry informed him as they plopped down onto the bench. Ed stretched out his legs in front of him and leaned deep onto the bench, creating a tripping hazard for anyone who might have walked by. Winry knew better than to even try to get him to care. "You seem tired," she stated.

"Of course I'm tired, a four day train ride from the far side of Drachma isn't fun at all. And besides, I had that three day train ride before that too. I haven't been on solid land for a while," he yawned again, his face then contorting into a tired scowl.

Reaching into his jacket pocket, Ed produced a small violet box, and set it on the bench in between them. Still maintaining his previous look, he slumped back onto the bench, looking straight forward.

Winry stared at the box, then laughed and picked it up, "Another set of earrings? If I remember correctly, someone told me it was stupid to punch holes in my ears just to accommodated these."

"There not earrings," Ed mumbled.

Winry's laugh died in her throat, and she looked down at the box, "Oh, I see."

It was almost like someone else was forcing it on her, she didn't even realize she was crying until a small teardrop darkened the edge of the box. She could feel Ed's expression soften and look at her. She could almost feel his sad smile, "What are you crying for, Winry?"

She sniffed and tried to wipe her face clear, "You kept your promise," she whispered.

"What promise?"

"The one where you said you won't make me cry unless it's tears of pure joy. And you kept your promise," she looked at him, "You make me stronger, Ed. You make me keep all my promises because you always keep all of yours."

Winry managed a smile, "So? Is this a promise?"

Edward scowled and faced forward again, "Wow, Winry, when did you get so sincere."

"I've always been sincere!"

Ed got up suddenly, taking his suitcase, he walked past Winry and towards the exit of the train station. Most of the people were already gone, anxious to get home to loved ones from a long journey. The final bit of steam escaped the front of the train, and the light in the ticket booth was already dim, so it was hard to make out his eyes under the shadow of his hair. Ed stopped at the side of the bench, "You're an idiot. Of course it's a promise."

Winry smiled, "Then I'll accept it."

At this, Ed turned, surprised. It was Winry's turn to get up this time, and she moved to stand beside him, both of them facing the iron gates. "And besides," she said, and started to walk in front of him, "I already said I was going to give you 85% of my life, right?"

Ed quickened his steps to catch up, and as he did, he burst into laughter. "85%?" he asked rather loudly in the tranquil air of the vacant road away from the train station, "How can you ever calculate 85% of someone's life?!"

"I'm good with numbers!" Winry yelled back. As they walked, their voiced continued to get louder, and the residence of Resemble smiled when they heard them. Ed was home, they thought.

"Oh yeah? If you're so good with numbers, then how come my automail leg is three centimeters shorter than my real one?"

"I didn't know you were still growing!!"

"Hey, don't sound so surprised! 21 isn't beyond the age of possibility! Why didn't you accommodate it to growing!??"

"I didn't know you'd be gone for three years! In my experience, you would've broke it before you could grow at all! You do remember that I was taller than you until we were fifteen!"

"DON'T BRING THAT UP!! And how long did you think it'll take to travel ACROSS THE WEST!?? A week??"

"You're an idiot! You could've told me!"

"No, you're the idiot!!"

"No, you are!!"

"Damn it, Winry, are you ever going to give me some peace and quiet!"

"That's not my fault, you started it!"

BuskerMetal

Okay, I know the combined names are pretty bad, but I'll leave it.

Okay, so officially finished Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood!!!!!! As of yesterday, actually. OMGs, I'm sooo sad it's over. But I can't wait for the movie. Yes there's a movie, coming out in July. Speaking of movies coming out this summer, Skins is supposed to come out this summer, but I don't think it's going to happen, like three people signed up for it, so unless they're having filmings incognito, there's been no news of it. Therefore, no production, ergo, no movie, at least not this soon.

And Buskerfest. Sooooooooo....................... F******* Monday! I should be filming it, but I'm in it, so I guess I need some one else to film it and email it to me..... JENNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, and Mr Olson, if you're reading this, can you make sure she films it on from the stairwell overlooking the Ca*******, that's the best shot. As well, if it's not too much trouble, could I borrow one of your cameras? I think I've asked before, but forgot to get it from you on Friday. I've got an SD card and everything. And is there a schedule for where everyone's going to be yet?

Pic of the day:

Since I can't post pics of F*******s, I guess I'll have to stick to Fullmetal. I find that in the manga and Brotherhood, Mustang's got more of back story, and is more vulnerable. In the original series, it doesn't reveal that much about him. I like how he and Hawkeye have a back story now, it's cute. And this picture is incredible!! Koodos to whoever made it!

Kayaking

Spending 3 hours in the Indian Arm on two-persons kayak sounds like a lot of fun. Well, it was, minus the throbbing arms and the getting soaked part, that is. When we went to camp in grade 7, we went kayaking too, but for like 30 minutes, not 3 hours. I'm pretty sure we circled around all of Deep Cove. The freeze didn't help either. But the view was nice, I got the low quality version, since I didn't bring my glasses. I don't regret it though, they wouldn't been splashed on.

Pic of the day:

Ours were two people, so imagine two cockpits.

Western Confrence

OMGS WE WON THE WESTERN CONFRENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STANLEY CUP HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I watched the double overtime for the game yesterday. I really think we're going to win this year. It's time the Stanley cup came to Vancouver, since we've got the STANLEY PARK and all.

Pic of the day:

You'd better. This reminds me of the sign we got Ms Jay: Forget the dog, BEWARE THE KIDS.

Movie Project

Okay, so apparently our movie project is due like next week. Well, maybe I've got more time than that, but I'm not too worried. I updated my realplayer, AND NOW I CAN DOWNLOAD ANY VIDEO I WANT AND CONVERT THE FORMATS OF THE VIDEO SO YOU CAN USE IT ON MOVIE MAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW, scroll down to the best couples list, I added Fullmetal and Winry. I LOVE THEM TOGETHER!!!!!! I haven't found a good picture for Mustang and Hawkeye yet, but I'll get them on too. You realize that I avoid calling Edward Edward, since 1. I know an Edward, and when Fullmetal's spazzing, he's like Edward, but when he isn't, he's nothing like Edward. Eddy's like a five year old on sugar. No no no, he IS a five year old on sugar. It's true, Eddy carries a bag of it around with him, it's like drugs. And 2. Cullen. Needless to say more. The Elric name will NOT be shamed by being mistaken as Cullen.

Pic of the day:

Misery and Psycho is what I'm linking The Shining with, they're all classic horror movies about psychological problems resulting in blood thirst. Great, eh? Nice and uplifting.

Fullmetal Castle

Okay, two things I've gotta say:

1. After watching the couple of creepy episodes in Castle Season 3, especially the season finale, it's funny to watch them be so ignorant in the first and second seasons. They're so much happier, somehow, season 3 was a lot gloomier, a lot more scary and serious cases. It's great!!!!

2. Fullmetal Alchemist music?? Like openings and endings, ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not really surprised, considering how this show is perfect all round.

Pic of the day:

Edward gets really tall in this one. If he was real, he'd be spazzing by now, but he eventually gets taller than Winry!!! I love those two together!!!!!!!!!!!!! And who else, might you ask? The Hawk's Eye and the Ishvalan Hero, or Riza and Roy!!!!! I love those two, so dedicated to each other, actually really realistic.

Being Vague

Our English project actually, if you think about, is very vague. We have to do a Mandala, and there's six steps and all, but they just tell you the mechanics of the project, not the specifics. It's good, cause more space to think, but not so good, cause you don't know what exactly to do.

OMGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FULLMETAL SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE'S POLITICS IN IT TOO AND IT'S JUST GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pic of the day:

Episode 43, about 20 episodes left. I really love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I watched about 15 today.

Guilt

Okay, I feel a little guilty for watching so much Fullmetal, but honestly, I just spent like three hours studying finals. And I'm tired. AND ED'S IN GLUTTONY'S STOMACH, GOTTA GO!!!
