Haloween!

Yes yes, grammatical error there. The reason behind that is well, because I played Halo 3 today.

I've played it before, and won it at a LAN party, so I'm not a newbie at it. But it's always fun playing it at a friends against people who have even less of a life than you.

Anyhow, after 2 hours of killing kids, I went back to school for my last class, then went home, made an early supper and watched The Blues Brothers. After this was all said and done it was 5pm. So my buddy and I decided to go out trick-or-treating as The Blues Brothers, hoho boy are we slick.

So, as we're heading out my friend Scott calls and asks if we had gone to pick up my friends game, Hellgate London which came out today. We hadn't, so he asked if he could tag along. Of course we said yes, but once we were on our way, we also were recognised for our costumes, and were given chips. Needless to say, that's almost ALL we got.

After making our way to the EB Games, we went to the Subway to get some mints, which they were giving away today. Afterwards, we hit our favorite hangout, The Hotspot for a milkshake and ghellato. Only to realise that our friend had lost his glasses!

After making a quick stop at the bank, we retraced our steps but to no avail. We could not find his glasses anywhere! So, discouraged we headed home without candy or glasses.

All in all a very fun day, very long, and cold. But very fun.

It's another day in pumpkin carving paradise

Alright, so, for the first time in a long time, I carved a pumpkin. Or rather, helped carve one. My buddy Jordan and I were hanging out after school waiting for our friend Jamie (or Quickie Lady, as I mentioned in a earlier post), to get out of school. So, when ever she did get out, she came and picked us up, and we drove around. Eventually we decided we needed to do something with out evening and decided to go pick up a couple of pumpkins. What a STEAL! 1 pumpkin for $0.99! Like, holy crap!

Anyhow we decided 2 would be best, in case we messed up, and brought them back to Jamies. So, when ever we got there we set up the table and got a knife, a pencil, and a bowl for the guts! But alas, we could not think of what to carve! So, while brainstorming we watched Red vs. Blue, for old times sake. After a while an idea hit me. Why not combine both pumpkins, and make a teddy bear? I passed the idea on, and in a second we were off! Carving like madmen (and madwomen) while still watching Red vs. Blue. Anyhow after about an hour we had finished, and were quite pleased with our work.

As we headed out the door to go home, we remembered we wanted to go to our new hangout, The Hotspot. Now, for those of you who don't know what, or where that is, it's like a coffee shop/hangout at the mall in Brockville. They serve all sorts of drinks and food. It turns out one of my buds was working tonight, and he suggested I have the vanilla milkshake. So, naturally I did. And oh boy! Was I glad I did! It was like a vanilla party in my mouth, with butterscotch! Like, HOLY COW!!!! (Pun intended, milkshake, cow, eh screw it)

And then that was my night, was a blast, and I hope to do it again sometime soon.

Will of the Subs meets the Hamburger Meister man.

Alright, so tonight at work I promised the person at the Quickie, Jamie, that I'd write her a completely random story on facebook. This, is that story.

Once upon a time in the magical land of Undine, there lived a magical man called The Hamburger Meister Man. Now, Hamburg, as he is referred to was a wicked and evil man, he ruled the land of Undine with an iron belly. You see, being magical, Hamburg had the ability to bring all hamburgers to life, as well as grow them to the size of an average human. So, with an army of elite hamburgers, he easily took over the towns, and cities of Undine. But one day, travesty struck Hamburg, for Will of the Subs came with a mission. His mission was to free the land of Undine from Hamburgs evil ways. Will was also a magical man. But his abilites were based on his ability to grow and extend his mouth, as well as his stomach. With that ability, he easily overcame the hamburger army and did battle with the Hamburger Meister man, but being the tricky foe he was, he laid a trap for Will of the Subs, and captured him. Now, the Hamburger Meister Man was very very cocky, and sure of himself, and loved to boast his power, so he had made his castle out of hamburgers. Hamburg, after eating all those hamburgs, wasn't very bright, and had poor health insurance. So, when Will ate his way out of his hamburger cell, he ate a supporting hamburger pillar which cause the castle to collapse, killing the Hamburger Meister Man instantly.
And so, with the Hamburger Meister Man gone, all the people of Undine were free to eat healthy subs, and lived happily, ever, after.
The End.

A day to laugh at

So here's the skinny.


I moved to B-ville from a french school, where my grades were borderline failing. I come to B-ville and bring my average from 54, up to a 75 in 1 semester. Holy-canoly! Impressive, isn't it? At the time, I wanted to be a computer engineer, but that dream lost it's way like many others after a while, it just so happened to be after the start of the next semester. So, I had chosen to re-take grade 10 math, but at a higher level. So, this is when I get stuck with Mr. Wright.
I'm having a lot of trouble in math, so both my dad, AND my math teacher said I should go in for extra help. So, after doing horrible on a quiz, I decide to go in. This was yesterday. Now, to go in for extra help, I have to either A: Go in during lunch, or B: go during MSIP (multi subject instructional period a.k.a. study time) So, I decide to go in for lunch. Being the lazy oaf I am, I didn't bring money or food with me, so I was running off a bowl of cheerios I had earlier that morning. Anyhow, I go in as I had planned, and I sit down and start to get some help. About 5 minutes in, I'm as lost as ever. Anyhow, so as I raise my hand to draw his attention to myself, he walks by me to go talk to another student. I figure, okay he'll help me in a second, right? Wrong. My math teacher, being the nice, kind and attentive man he is, talks to said student, for at least 30 minutes! Talking about BIKES to boot! Keep in mind, lunch is only 50 minutes. Which, when you calculate it, 30 minutes wasted by him, 5 minutes after I'm in there, leaves about 15 minutes. Now, it's getting a little late for him to help me, wouldn't you say? So, he finally sees me, even though he's been facing my direction the whole time. He comes over and says "What's up Will?" I told him my dilema, that I still didn't understand, and if he could help. So, with lunch coming to an end, he decides to fly through the explanation, and not go into detail. Now friends, I'm an intuitive man, so when something is explained to me, I need details. Unfortunately, I've been stuck with this.... how-you-say lazy, easily distracted, and most importantly, failure of a math teacher for 2 years now. Since I was in his class in grade 10, my average DROPPED, from 75 to 56. Alright, keep in mind that I was in the same grade of math, just slightly harder. But I already knew most of the stuff, so I should either keep the same grades, or improve. Not this time. But, being stubborn, I decide to take grade 11 math university level the following year (present time). And of course, Mr. Wright is there first day to dash my hopes. Now I'm not saying he's a bad math teacher, just for me, it seems like he doesn't give a shit, and could care less on whether I fail or not.

Anyhow, that's all for tonight folks. I'm off to bed!

Hey hey hey!

Well, it's about time I got a blog. Now I too, can rant about my goings on, and my pet peeves and the like!

I hope all who come to this page enjoy themselves, and enjoy my soon to be constant rants.
