"Multiple Intelligences"

My English teacher gave our class the assignment to take a quiz on "multiple intelligences". It's really one of those...personality-type quizes, with no right or wrong answers. It supposed to tell you how you learn and stuff like that. Anyway, I thought it was interesting.

You can take the quiz here:

Words With Friends

If you own an iPod Touch, iPhone, or Android you've probably played or at least heard of Words With Friends. If you haven't, it's basically Scrabble with friends. A lot of my friends have it, and we play together a lot. Currently, I have eight games going on. Anyway, the other day I was playing with my aunt and I scored a 105-point word. I'm not joking. The pic is right there. The Z was on a triple letter tile and the S was on a triple word tile. I'm not making this up. See for yourself.

The End of the World (Maybe)

I'm sure many of you have heard about the very devastating 5.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the East coast on Tuesday. There has been severe damage reported everywhere:
But seriously, I think that everyone is overreacting. Oh, by the way, my family went grocery shopping today. We go to this store called Aldi, maybe you've heard of it. Normally, it isn't very busy, but today wow, was it crazy. I suppose because of hurricane whats-her-name, everyone is afraid that we're all going to blow away. But don't we have better things to worry about, like, I don't know, 2012??

Raising Money for Kids, one Pokeball at a time

The video gaming community Respawn Point started a Pokemon-catching marathon to catch all 649 Pokemon in a week, meanwhile raising $2,333.33 for the charity Childs Play, which gives toys and video games to sick children. Pretty cool, huh?

Epic Video Game music covers!

Reading my Yahoo! news feed and Something caught my eye: "Lake Hylia Cover on Guitar". In case you didn't know, Lake Hylia is a location in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess. As it turns out, the game that this specific instance is from is Twilight Princess, so I didn't recognize it. Anyway, the article linked to this guy's (TheDelRe) YouTube channel, which had a lot more covers. Below are links, etc.
