Dec 31st: The Last Day

I watched the last video earlier.

It's beginning to sink in. It's really over, isn't it?

But every ending is a beginnin of something new.

Let's make 2008 the second awesomest year ever!

New years resolutions...too many to mention... So I'm not going to.

New Year's is looming...

And I need a resolution. Last year my resolution as to read all of the Bronte sister's books. I almost got there...well, not really. I started reading Villette and couldn't finish and the same with The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. And I didn't even get started on The Proffessor and Shirely and all the rest. But oh well! This year my resolution is to get through my English class with an A, and remain somewhat sane while doing it. I also want to be happy and do what I want to do, be an individual!… Continue

Guilt Free Three...er, Four?

Alright, so this isn't exactly my guilt free three, since I've got more than three people and I don't know that I would necessarily like to jump on it with them, as much as look at them and fantasize doing naughty things to them.

Ok, so first off I've got Mat Devine. I know it's really cliche to like the lead singer of your favourite band, but despite his total brattiness he has moments of sweetness and cleverness that make up for that. And, when…

Last B2.0 Video

I'm sad. We're all sad, I think. Unless you're some super optimistic happy sunshiney day person. Then you probably won't be sad. Anyway, I'm sad because it's the last official day of Brotherhood 2.0 (I'm sure none of you knew that). And I really don't want to see it go.

But I'm going to try to keep what Kayla said in mind. I should be thinking about everything that happened over the last year, not what's ending. Or something like that. Now I don't have an obsession anymore. I mean, for… Continue

You know what? You know what this place is?

This Nerdfighter Network...

It's Nerdfighteria...

It may be online and not an actual place...

But while My Pants was the official meeting place of Nerdfighters...

This Nerdfighter Network is the neighborhood.

Our little pages are our homes...

While My Pants is the cool club downtown.

That's how I see this, anyway.

That One Story About That Guy Called Denny (no title, open to suggestions) [still in the editing process]

His name is Dennis, and they all call him Denny. He is 26 and has brown hair and brown eyes and a jaw that’s not quite round and not quite square. He doesn’t drink, he doesn’t do drugs, but he asks strangers for cigarettes until he has an assorted pack of 20--all different--which takes a long time to collect, and then he sits down and smokes every one, pointedly marking the differences in tastes, smells, and texture. He smokes them until only the name by the filter is left, and then he gently… Continue

Morning Again (the first big story I wrote)

My older brother died and my parents didn’t care. I think it was because they genuinely didn’t like him. This seemed like a disgrace to me. I had a strong bond with my brother. He was the one who taught me how to fish, to jump rope, to tie my shoes. He told me scary stories under the covers at night and when I was truly scared he would hug me. He taught me how to fight, what to do or say when someone teased me. He protected me. He would take me out to breakfast, lunch, dinner, and order food… Continue

That One Story About AIDS (no title, open to suggestions)

It’s when I fall asleep in the empty bathtub naked that I know I’m in trouble, and I’m not even the sick one, Jamie is.

“It’s chronic,” she told me. I don’t even know what that means.

When my mom heard about Jamie getting sick and saw how sad I was, she said,

“It’s like Daddy’s diabetes. He’s fine as long as he takes that shot, right? Well Jamie will be fine as long as she takes care of herself.”

I thought, if it’s like diabetes, why is her dad crying so much? But I didn’t… Continue

Vandalism is hard.

You think roughing up kids and writing stuff on street signs would be easy.

It's not.

But, God, is it fun.

The street sign bit; I did not rough up any kids tonight.

Hoo Hah Nerdfighters!

Welcome fellow Nerdfighters! This would be my page and my blog! If you're ever bored and looking for something to listen to, check out the podcast at the bottom of this page. Its semi Harry Potter related, but we mostly just go off on tangents. Oh, and also check out our website www.freewebs.com/yatspot

Gamecube

My mom had been swearing up and down since June that my sisters and I weren't getting any video games this year, or ever, for Christmas. Come December 25, she had broken us. We played with our new Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit board games, watched our DVDs, and read our books with nary a complaint. Besides, we knew that Zen and Universal had been our big presents. We knew this because Mom had been reminded us of this every time we looked at a PSP or even sneezed near a Wii (not that there…

31st Part One

It's already the last day of the year. Which also means it's the last day of Brotherhood 2.0 *sniff* (Technically, it isn't the last day yet, because B2.0 is EST based wich means it still lasts for about a day and 5 hours or something?)

Luckily it's not the last day of Nerdfighting.

I'll put up "How do I make a Nerdfighter Poster to hang on my wall - For Dummies" soon, that way everyone can have awesome wall decoration like me. I really should make a Hank poster sometime. I mean,… Continue

So this is all very new...

So this is all very new to me. But I have to say, I like this website. I think Hank should definitely keep it around.

Although...those Google ads on the side over there are very distracting to me. I get distracted like that easily. What can I say?

I want to point out that this is my very first ever blog post thingy. So I don't really know what I'm doing. I think what I'm going to do is use this blog to show you my newest… Continue

31 Dec 07

Well this year has almost come to a close and its time for me to do my yearly overview. What have I learnt this year, what have I acheived, my highlights etc. Im not a fan of new year resolutions as I tend to tackle things when they arrive not pin a date on them. I might post my yearly review in a few days but for now the thing that is paramount in my head is that 3 years ago tonight I separated from someone very important to me, and there began my spiral into my nervous breakdown and some…

Stuff on my head and things on my mind.

Hello, everyone. My name is Kevin, but I go by Bard as often as not, and either works nicely for polite conversation. The chances are, if you're reading this, you probably don't know me. When it comes right down to it, I don't think I know anyone here just yet. So, here's the short version.

I'm 30 years old, I live somewhere somewhere within a 30 mile radius of the Sears Tower (yes, you guessed it, I actually live in Lake Michigan), and I do a lot of creative things. You can… Continue

My Little Black Book / The Charlie Diary.

So yeah, I've totally started a written diary. Its not even a virtual one. It's one that you actually have to write in with pens and pencils and stuff. The thing is however, this is not just any normal diary. Oh no. This my friends is a Charlie diary.

The main difference between a normal diary and a Charlie diary is that I may or may not use this to write actual notes about my day. I may or may not write little secrets about my… Continue

Last Day of the Brotherhood, but my first blog :)

Hm....we'll see how long this lasts. lol. I've never managed to keep a blog or a diary for more than 5 days....much like how John never gets around to finishing stuff. It's the day before New Years Ever....i'm once again groundeddd, which really is not made of awsome. Haven't seen Nick in five days or talked to him. It's driving me crazy. Ew, today I was at Good Will and an old guy was hitting on me o.o I think he was a ~~pervert~~ pedo....but that's just my opinion…
