Glog & Music

Yeah, I just finished another one of my character glogs. It still needs a few more things here and there, but it's essentially done.
By the way, I think this is the most I've posten in a really, really, really long time.

Moving right along, I need something else to put in this empty space, so heres a bunch of songs that are stuck in my head right now.
Break Your Knees - Flyleaf
Something I Can Never Have - Flyleaf   [[cover]]
Just Like Me - Hawk Nelson
Whatever Reason- Disciple
More Than A Love Song - Fireflight

Yup, that's just about all I have to say right about now. I'll post something more worthwhile soon, I promise!

Titles

I am so proud of myself. I just came up with a title for one of my stories I finished recently. It's that "romancy" story I wrote in February for my writing challenge, and I finally came up with something that I like and think I might keep.
You see, I have this problem with names and titles. I mean, I even have trouble coming up with titles for these blog posts! And don't get me started on character names; those can take me weeks to decide on permanently. So I guess it's safe to say that I was pretty excited when I came up with this title and I liked it instantly.
So how it happened: I was Googling (actually I was Yahooing because Google's acting weird on my computer) tips for coming up with title ideas, and one stood out to me. Take an existing expression, and twist it around a little, make it a play on words. So one thing that came to mind later on was internet memes. The first one that I come up with: "The cake is a lie," from the original Portal video game. Yes, I'm a bit of a geek. Anyways, the point of the story I wrote was pretty straightforward: There's a guy, and he's pretending to date this girl so that this other really annoying girl leaves him alone. Complicated, and yes, very cliche. But then I was thinking "y'know the cake is a lie... cake kinda sounds like date... The date is a lie! Ohmygosh!"
Yeah, so something good came out of my geekiness

The End is Where We Begin

Yeah, so I probably should've posted something about this before, but I just keep forgetting. Anyways, Thousand Foot Krutch is releasing a new album, "The End is Where We Begin" , on April 17. And no, I cannot wait for it. I've listened to a few of the songs on YouTube, and they just sound absolutely amazing. Seriousy, I want to get this so bad.
So the reason I'm remembering this is because I read this interview from a magazine this evening, and I thought I'd share that too. So there's that, and also a few links to some songs on YouTube.

"War of Change"
"The End is Where We Begin"
"Courtesy Call"

Trademark Nonsense

This afternoon, I logged onto Dictionary.com to look up a word (no kidding) and this article caught my eye. According to it, Facebook has trademarked the word "book", which essentially means that you cannot use it without Facebook's permission. My first reaction: "WhatTheHeck?!" Seriously, you look at this and think, wait a sec, so if I say, "I read Savvy for lit club; it ws a good book," could Facebook sue me? I mean, really, if they can do this, could companies trademark words like "the"? It just seems really, really, really stupid to me, that's all. Therefore, it deserved my strange opinion.

Hello?

Yeah, nothing much has happened lately. So that's why I haven't posted much.
It's not like there's any point to it anyway. I'm just talking to myself.
I had wrote a "romancy story" for writing group in February. You can read it here if you really, really want to.
I also made a glog for one of my characters Again, you can look at it here if you really, really want to.

Seriously, is anyone out there? Anyone?
...........
Yeah, that's what I thought.

Talking to my iPod

Yeah, when i get bored I talk to my iPod. It doesn't do much, but it plays random songs. (And no, I don't have Siri or whatever it's called)

Me: What's up?
iPod: The time is 5:17 pm
Me: Play song, "Imperfection"
iPod: Now playing songs by The Summer Obbsession
Me: You're a moron!!
iPod: ---
Me: Play song, "Monster".
iPod: Playing songs by Third Day.
Me: You need to learn some discipline.
iPod: Now playing songs by Disciple.
Me: Do you have ANY friends?
iPod: Playing album "Flyleaf"
Me: The cake is a lie.
iPod: Playing album "Collide"
Me: Can I have cookie?
iPod: Playing album "Cities"
Me: Do you want to go to youth group tonight?
iPod: No match found.
Me: Shut up.
iPod: ---

So that's that our conversations are like, mostly. It can get pretty interesting.
Anyways, I'll try to post somthing more worthwhile another time. Until then...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Or happy Singles Appreciation Day, if you celebrate that instead.

Yep, so I'm spending Valentine's Day happy and alone. I am happy for those who have someone special to share it with. Personally, I could do without all of the mushy stuff. I'm just happy with my free candy.
