Egypt is happy again-and other updates.

So their president resigned and now Egypt is all 'FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!'
Pretty damn happy. 
The president was all, 'Oh. I've been working this job for 30 years. I wanted to stay until September, but I'm a bad aspect.' Yeah. You were, dude. 


As for the other updates, I'm putting a design to the page, and possibly making a banner. Actually, you know what, I will make a banner. But right now I'm starving and my fingers are all jittery as a result. I need food. D;


And VALENTINES DAY! Known by some as Singles' Awareness Day, and one person on gaia called it "unimaginative, consumerist-oriented and entirely arbitrary, manipulative, and shallow interpretation of romance day." 
I'm making Origami hearts with pouches on the inside, which I'm going to fill with candy and a valentine, then sew up the sides in a matter that makes it easily accessible from the middle. 


And something is weird about this font style or something. The words seem closer together about midway through this upper part. 


Odd. 


Also, mom and dad were yelling at me to do something productive other than sit at the computer all day. Sitting at the computer all day is what I do to BE productive. You wouldn't believe the stuff I learn from spending 8 hours a day on this contraption. I'm a writer and designer, it's what I do, mom and dad. And I'm perfectly fit, so stop complaining.  


Edit: Ok, so it only looks weird when I'm editing it.

Gameboy!

GAMEBOY! :D
Remember that old electronic that was so 'in' in the 1990's? And if you have all the games for it you were the coolest damn kid in class?
Well today I felt like bringing my old gameboy to school and playing Pokemon Blue on it. I had actually gotten quite a bit of work done on the game. I got that lazy Snorlax to get outta my way on Route 12, I obtained a pokemon and taught it surf so I could swim around and such, and I defeated a gym leader. I stood in one of the stairwells of my school during lunch, playing away, when some assholes who are younger than me began to tease me about my gameboy, and how they had one when they were 5. I tried ignoring them at first, I was busy getting my Magikarp back from the Daycare Man so I could level him into a Gyardos, but the bastards wouldn't leave me alone. I looked up from my game finally, and asked simply, "So?" And here's how the conversation went:

Bastard #1: "I used to play that game, and then my mom got a job."
Bastard #2: "I have an xbox kinect! Beat that!"
Me: "Try bringing that into school, leaning up against a wall and playing without other people asking for a turn."
Bastards 1, 2 and 3: ".............."

They fell silent for a moment, attempting to think of a comeback. I guess they didn't have a DS either.
They left and I got my Magikarp back, and continued on my merry way through Cinnabar Island, defeating trainers and leveling up my pokemon happily. I was the God of Pokemon in my school, and no bastard with an xbox kinect was ever going to confront me ever again. The powers of the Gameboy raised me better than any parent would, and that's all that mattered at that time.

Pictures later, I'm going to bed.

Egypt is not happy.

As we all know, Egypt is all like,






















Some holding signs, some holding weapons. Some holding signs that they're using as weapons.
But yeah. So Egypt is all raging and such about their government, and the guys is all like, 'Well Imma stay in office 'til September, lawl!'
Which makes me sad, because then people will continue revolting until that happens, and I was supposed to go to Egypt during Spring Break, but we may have to jump to plan B.
Turkey, Cyprus, and Greece.
I remember my dad (who is a firefighter, now the former fire chief because he retired) giggling about how they couldn't put out the fires in Greece, because you can't use water on a grease fire. I face-palmed.

But if I did go to Egypt, I wouldn't be able to celebrate Norwegian Constitution Day, because most people in Egypt are Muslims, and Muslims+Norwegians=no no. They don't like each other. To express myself, if I celebrated Norwegian Constitution Day in Egypt, I'd get shot. :(
And it wouldn't be make anything better. Imagine that you're yelling, revolting, getting injured, you know, stuff you do when your government decides to be a bitch, and then to add to that, you got some pansy from a country that is supposed to be pretty awesome, celebrating something from a country that you highly dislike.
Rage metre?


Rage metre. Like it? :D
I thought it was pretty awesome.

So yeah, that's basically how it is right now.
