So, as I vaguely said in my previous entry, I still haven't even started making a remake of PrtSc Land even though I'd always said I wanted to starting on the 10th or 12th or 15th or (some other nice number)th anniversary of it - and I'd always been hoping that it would be the tenth anniversary, specifically.

But there is one way I thought of to celebrate it, or at least celebrate the date August 12, 2006 itself: by posting the strips that several comics BESIDES mine happened to run on that date or the nearest date possible! In roughly the order that I first became interested in each of these comics!

By now you no doubt have heard the news about Satoru Iwata, Nintendo's president. :(

I intended to write a tribute to him as soon as I had heard the news (a very short tribute, of course, because I'm still not a very good writer), but I ended up putting it off until the 14th, which was my birthday, and every time I want to post about something sad and something fun at the same time, I'm faced with the decision of: Do I try and write one entry about both topics, with some sort of "On a happier note..." transition? Do I post two entries in one day? Do I just pick one and post about it?

ALL of those options have either always worked out badly for me in the past or have never been tried because I KNEW they'd work out badly, hence why I ended up not even posting at all on the 14th. I was considering waiting until the 18th to post about my birthday anyway since that's when my birthday party was, but I still ended up procrastinating so long that by the 18th I was in the same scenario: ready to post about my birthday party, but I still hadn't posted about Iwata, and still didn't know how I should go about writing about either topic.

And then, as you can tell, I ended up procrastinating even further because I feel like there's a huge hole in my journal now there's three consecutive entries that I'm posting way too late. At this point, I think the only way I might be able to make myself not feel this way is if I ask you to pretend that this entry doesn't exist but the three below do and were posted on the dates listed. (note: this probably doesn't matter at all, but I don't know whether or not the repost buttons will work correctly...)

I don't know if this counts, but The Onion Ring (Annoying Orange's parody of The Ring). In fact, given what little I know so far about the actual movie (i.e. I read the xkcd strip where someone says "You watched The Ring?! Now you'll die in 7 days!"), I'm actually convinced that The Onion Ring is probably scarier than The Ring itself. I dunno, to me, the thought of dying seems slightly less scary than the thought of turning into an onion ring. But only slightly.

If The Onion Ring doesn't count, then the only "real" horror movie I've seen is Devil, so by default that's what it'd be.

I haven't posted about this before, but towards the end of school I was assigned two reading projects to do over the summer. One is about Tuesdays with Morrie, and we have to write about the most important word, phrase, or sentence, and for the other one we get to choose from seven books (I chose The Crucible) and we have to make a posterboard.

So I was working on the latter today, and I was looking for images of some of the main characters and some other things pertaining to the book on Google Images. One thing I searched for is "yellow bird". Look what I got:



Can you show me how to get, how to get to the witch trials? :P

I admit it's not as funny as this, but...
