Nothing dramatic - this blog is one year and six days old now because I haven't been able to create another cool blogskin. You know, after showing off a blog with such a beautiful, perhaps professional-looking self-made template, it wouldn't be so good to put up another blog with a downloaded blogskin. Yes, it's about pride. I'm tired with the name Cuivielindalë, I've since made up a lot of probably weirder blog names and addresses, and I'm quite restless now because I can't simply make that blog a reality.
Anyway, ignore the previous paragraph. Now that I've written it I'm quite unsure if that's what I really meant.
So the title applies for those two first paragraphs. I tell you, the post entry has no connection at all to anything that follows.
You see I'm not posting that frequently anymore. Blame two games -
Need for Speed Underground 2 and
SimCity 4 Rush Hour (I'm almost done with the former and currently struggling with the latter. You gotta see my fully upgraded, 10-star
Celica). Nice games, full of eye candy, it runs--
I've got to stop there. Or else you'll never visit my blog again, for the same reason you don't visit Vitug's blog.
To talk about something that finally makes sense, the Family Camp, uhm, I can't really tell how I feel about it. People had various reactions to my "costume" (brown suit with matching hat - not really a costume in its full sense). One said it was cool, another said it made me look old, two OPM enthusiasts told me I looked either Pupil's Dok Sergio or Sandwich's Mong Alcaraz. I thought I looked like the Mafia's boss - I was the only one in the Mafia group who had a non-black "costume".
The night was mostly boring. The only part of the activities I liked was the paper airplane making and flying contest, in which I had a part. Rosal certainly had an edge - an aviation enthusiast and his father on the team was all we needed. No wonder we finished the game in less than half the time it took the second best team.
The fun began at about midnight, when the events were finally finished. When the "silent" (not really) movie-showing commenced, and when I watched, played an electric guitar, watched again, walked around and repeated these activities until sunrise. That's what's fun for me. I mastered Urbandub's Fallen on Deaf Ears on the guitar that morning, by the way. Not that it matters.
Yes, I didn't sleep. I didn't sleep well also the night before the camp. Which is why I was half-asleep for most of the time since sunrise until the camp's end.
That afternoon I went back to my former school, good old St. James Academy. There was a Battle of the Bands there. I thought Pisay already had a lot of musically-inclined and talented people, until I watched 11 unexpectedly-good bands from SJA perform. Out of the eleven, there were even three all-girl groups, one of which won, who satisfied me with their excellent rendition of Imago's Akap.
But what really interested me that afternoon was meeting up old friends. What a happy bunch of people.
Right now I keep getting pop-ups from the system tray, telling me a virus has infected my computer. Cool. It's actually a spyware, but look - my system is going nuts about it. It's just a spyware. I'm not hiding anything in my system, there's nothing really worthwhile hackers can find in my PC so what. In fact, without that spyware I wouldn't have written this post; I wrote this post instead of playing Need for Speed or SimCity because I had to download an antivirus program. Thank you, hacker.
By the way, thank you very much Theia for letting me borrow your Bio notebook overnight. Told you, I'm going to mention you in my first post-blog birthday post.
