Oops...

Well! I haven't completely lost hold of my senses - I've decided to research Charles Darwin instead of D&D.. though I suppose that was mostly because no one in my class would know what I was talking about when I did the presentation. *.* Anyways, I've just spent the past hour reading.. yup, Order Of The Stick fanfiction. It took a while for me to finally venture into the thread labeled "Crack Fanfiction" on the OOTS forum, but I did, and while most if it was either disturbing or hilarious, one of the longer stories totally swept me away.

Well, I guess I know what my plans for this weekend are. I wonder which is more reasonable - to be obsessed with a comic strip and its fanfiction or an animated movie and its fanfiction? Probably the latter, but unfortunately my 9 obsession only lasted 2 months.. while I've been obsessed with OOTS since late October.

Oops indeed. (Also oops for making the titles of this post and the last post the same.)

((P.S. If you don't know what I'm talking about when I say OOTS, it's a stick figure comic I've been yakking about since October, found here. If you are familiar with Dungeons & Dragons, it could be funny for you, but I'm not that familiar with it, and I love the comic. *.*))

Oops

I haven't written in a while.

Anyways, in language arts we're about to start working on a research project that will end in a presentation and a 1-page essay. I was searching for topics to do, when I thought of Order Of The Stick. Remember Order Of The Stick? Well, if you don't, it's a webcomic parodying the roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons. And I've been reading some other D&D parody webcomics, so I got the idea to do D&D for my research topic.

Crazy, huh? I guess it's more like obsessed, but these things really interest me. Huh. By the way, I've now played over 800 games of Doodle Jump (my favorite app on the iTouch). It's really addicting - so addicting, in fact, that in the App Store it's labeled "Warning: Extremely Addictive!"

The start of the second semester has been okay. In science, we began a unit on flowers (today we did a flower dissection) and man, is it boring. Guess I won't be a botanist.

Ah, yikes - I still have that leaf diagram to do. *poof*

Order Of The Stick (insert the word obsession here)

Wordle: Words of Gosh's Blog

This is a word cloud composed by www.wordle.net of all the most common words of this blog. Pretty cool, huh? I think there's a similar thing out there for Twitter, but I haven't bothered looking. Hm. Maybe I should make an Animoto video of this thing...

Anyways, so I should probably blog some about what's been happening in my life. If anything, I've become more obsessed with Order Of The Stick (that webcomic I was talking about a few posts ago), and I haven't really thought about 9 since.. well, when I discovered Order Of The Stick. xD However, I still very much love the 9 youtube parodies, the best ones being run by Smallsthehero. They have a lot of bad jokes & sexual innuendos, but my and my friends laugh our heads off at them. If you're interested, here's the link to the latest one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-lkcYU4zkY

Yeah.. Christmas (not to mention Winter Break) is coming, and I'm really quite excited, although I am a tiny bit worried that I didn't get the order links to my mom in time - it would be embarrassing if the stuff didn't get shipped in time. I'm also quite pleased that all my midterm exams so far have been easy. I'm a little worried about Texas History, but other than that, it's all good.

There are three songs I've been listening to over and over again. Most notably, Through The Fire And Flames by Dragonforce - probably because it reminds me of Order Of The Stick, and because I like stuff like that anyways. Oh, and it's pretty long (7 minutes or so) so it's not as repetitive. Anyways, moving on. When I first heard Lady Gaga's new song Bad Romance, I didn't like it. Guess what? Now I do, and it gets stuck in my head often. I've also become a little addicted to the song "Dum Dadi Doo" by Nightcore - a rather odd song which nonetheless has a good beat.

Ahh.. Well, there's more I'd like to say, but I have to compose a list of all the board games we have for my uncle, so...
