We did. We have so many clocks.


I met 7 Miis in one day (Louvre), and half of them had Pokemon X or Y.

Wait, I thought that was next week? Or is it different in Europe?

Re: today you did things noteworthy

I forgot to post yesterday, but I went to a school "Fall Fest" yesterday. I went because I had to watch my brother. He's 12 though, so he really doesn't need me, my parents didn't want him there alone. I met up with a bunch of other freshmen. There wasn't much to do. We had Chick-fil-a for lunch though. Five of us went to the haunted house they had there. It wasn't scary. Hell, I tried to scare some of the people in there. It just relied on cheap jumpscares. The three girls I was with however kept screaming. On of them grabbed my arm and dragged me through the place because she wanted protection. I wanted to look at the costumes and stuff, but nope, she kept dragging me through the house. We recognized a few of the people working there so when the jumped out, we just casually said hey to them.

After this, we actually rescued a dog! A bunch of us were sitting at a table, chilling out, when all of a sudden, a small dog comes running up to us. There is no owner in sight. We called the number on the tag and we found out the owner didn't even know their dog was missing. She quickly drove up to our school. I guess she lived in the nearby neighborhood. She got there not long after we called and thanked us for finding her lost dog.

I also saw NABO volunteering at the "paint a pumpkin" tent.

This was yesterday, but I lost my Internet again. On the firewall-infested house computer now.

Going to call my mom later to try (probably unsuccessfully) to get her to renew my Internet... again

For those who were wondering I am in a group home, but I don't see the reason for the firewall as everyone here is 18 or older

firewalls protect against viruses getting onto your computer

Youtube can still be accessed by typing HTTPS, but some videos still won't play and say I need Flash player. Deviantart is blocked completely, as is Imgur and most other image-hosting sites, therefore most images here appear broken. What's worse is that the proxy sites are all blocked too, so I can't use those to get past it.

This was yesterday, but I forgot yesterday. In my Academic Team practice (Academic Team is like group trivia), my team recieved two bonus questions with the same category. The category: Name these Nintendo Mario characters. My team said "Yes, this is going to be so easy" and the other team said "No, this is going to be so easy". The answers ended up being Luigi and Lakitu. That makes 5 video game related questions I've heard in 3 years of doing this.

What were the questions where Luigi and Lakitu were the answers of?
 
Re: today you did things noteworthy

That's harder to remember. I think I could try paraphrasing. Luigi's went something like, "What character dressed in green is a brother the Mario?" and Lakitu's was "What type of koopa with goggles flies in a cloud and throws spinies?"

Locked down the borders of the region Draconis in NationStates to attempt to curb the zombie threat.

I'm also unleashing all of the tax dollars we've spent over the years on Defense on zombie control. Finally!

I hate when I do that. Or sometimes I mishear the question so I answer it wrong. Like the worst time it happened was last year. The question was "This piece can en passant" which was the pawn, but I misheard it as what game has a piece that can en passant. So I answered chess instead of pawn, and I never forgave myself for it.

I downloaded Stylish for google chrome and then decided to use it to change up tumblr a little with some ace attorney bits.
