hey sorry about not posting

lots of exciting stuff happened really fast and I didn't have time to go on here and talk about it

First of all, something known as PARCC testing is coming up soon for me! I'm not looking forward to it at all. First of all, we don't get to go to Band or Choir for around 2 weeks, and second, it's not that it's hard, it's just that it takes forever! Ugh. At least once I take it it'll be over. And once I do, I know that the end of the school year is just around the corner- and right after that, TATINOF! (eee) I found out that almost all my friends have tickets. Maybe we'll spot each other in the audience! Probably not, though. It's a big theater.

Monstercat Podcast number 100 came out a few days ago! *excited* It's almost 3 hours long with over 100 songs, and it's AWESOME AND YOU SHOULD WATCH IT NOW DO IT

Have any of you watched someone called Bill Wurtz? He makes cool videos about random stuff at www.billwurtz.com. He made the video history of japan, which taught me more about japan than I've learned in any other time of my life! (and it's melodic, too.) So check him out!

School was school. Not much changed. We're studying the War of 1812. Did you know that we invaded Canada and burned York (modern-day Toronto, the British capital at the time) to the ground? And for payback, the British burned Washington D.C. Dolly Madison saved a painting of George Washington from the burning White House, though. I think that was pretty cool of her.

Quick survey! How do you draw? How did you learn? For example, I learned from looking at artists' art that I admired, and watching how they drew certain things like expressions. I also traced a bit of artwork to just see how to do things like clothing folds. So how did you do it? I have a friend who practiced drawing clothing and stuff by photographing himself in the mirror, then drawing his character in the same poses as he was in. I think that was pretty cool.

This is turning into one of those random rant things. OH WAIT I FORGOT THERE'S NEWS! I'm going to be making a Weebly side-blog based off of this one, just detailing random stuff about my fandoms. So if you want to hear me rant more about Undertale, go there! (Web address will be posted next time; I'm still working out some kinks in the system.) Weebly is pretty cool if you want to make an easy site. Blogger is a lot more complicated with HTML and stuff.

That's pretty much all I have for you today! In totak:

  • PARCC testing
  • Monstercat Podcast 100! YAY!
  • Excited for TATINOF
  • Check out Bill Wurtz
  • How do you draw? Comment below!
  • Weebly side-blog coming soon! (for fandoms!)
See you next time!

DE-FENSE! DE-FENSE!

So I went to a Bulls game today, and as you may know, they lost. It was unbearable. We were SO CLOSE! If we didn't have a penalty called on us, we would have WON. WE WOULD HAVE WON. This is why I don't get involved in sports. Ugh. I would have rather stayed home and been on my computer for the seven hours it took us to do everything. At least I saw Chicago! It seems that there are fences under the bridges, and people are putting locks on there like they do on that bridge in Paris. Pretty cool, I think.

Besides that, I have absolutely nothing to report! I didn't get the chance to do much because we left at four and came back at eleven. This is not good. It means I don't get to tell you anything else. *cries*

Well, sorry! Hopefully there'll be more to report tomorrow!

Rhyming words!
So this is an update on my life as per the end of my day. I had an awesome time with my friends! We played the longest game of Uno EVER (it took us the entire time to finish it) and we cracked up at Tumblr stuff and April Fools' stuff. (I'm so glad it's April Fools', there are some people **cough cough donald trump** who have been planning elaborate pranks of course!) Also, there's a new video by DanandPhilCRAFTS that you should check out! Now! Do! It! We also cried major big-time over Gravity Falls feels again, and I told them about the new fandoms I'm in! We overall had an amazing time and I can't wait for them to come back hopefully next week!

Well, that's all! Gotta go to bed or something :D

OH WAIT! Important stuff!
So serious business for a minute.
I want to tell you guys something right now.
I have been living a lie.
I was adopted.
I'm not sure what this means for my life in general, but my parents told me, and I'm trying to re-define normal at the moment. That was some probable cause for the hiatus.

Well see you I guess!

(Some music: hereherehere)

Yet Another Normal Post

Hey everyone! Quick lil' promo here- I have a Soundcloud, also called Gracc McDede, and I repost a lot of dubstep stuff so if you like dubstep follow me pls

Well, now that that's out of the way, I'll tell you about today so far! It's been... boring, mostly. Me and my little sister sat in my dad's office and watched Miraculous and read and drew. Not much to report.
So instead of reporting about today (although my friends are going to come over later, so...), I'm going to talk about some stuff almost at random. Be prepared.

So on the one hand, what is up with terrorists? they aren't good at all. I don't like them. They're very not good for anyone except maybe themselves and usually not themselves either because they suicide and stuff. So why do they do it? I don't know. If you do, comment.

Oh, and Homestuck has been going well so far. I keep going to Tumblr to look at one thing and getting distracted from reading it, though. It's still cool. It's very exciting and weird and OH MY GOSH I LOST THE PLOT AGAIN but at the same time it's interesting and philosophical and witty and funny almost in an undertale-style way. I tried to draw fanart and was terrible at it, like I usually am. Darn.

Well, at least there's Monstercat, right? They're almost at their one hundredth podcast! exciting stuff! their newest compilation was SO AWESOME. I love it. I'm listening to one of their podcasts right now actually.

This headset that I'm wearing definitely makes me look like one of those people in "Online Help & Service" that works minimum wage and deals with so much that they're dead inside. That's pretty cool. I think I'll keep the look.
Speaking of looks, I've been meaning to re-dye my hair! I need to make an appointment, because I still hate the weird color it is now. Also it would be nice to get my hair trimmed. Maybe I'll dye it black on the surface and blue or something underneath, or maybe like a dark inky blue or something. I don't know. It's really frustrating that most color companies don't stock much blue or any unnatural colors in general because there are so many colors of blue! and you're only giving me like 3 colors! it's annoying!

I believe I may (definitely) have a cold. It's bugging me. My throat hurts and has gunk in it. I wish we had a vaccine against the common cold. That would be awesome. I would be first in line. Even though I hate getting shots. Well, we can only hope that science can advance to cure one of the most frequent diseases that plague us, especially when it actually does kill people! not much but still!

I can't wait for my friends to come over. It feels like it's been forever and I have so much to discuss and OH MY GOSH I FORGOT TO TELL THEM LAST TIME ABOUT THAT ONE THING

anyways.


YouTuber of the Day is Monstercat. Because Monstercat is Monstercat is Monstercat.
Song of the Day... gosh, it's so hard to pick! So many good ones! I'll pick a couple:

So there ya have it! A lil' playlist of music instead of just one track! I'm gonna go work on my book now- see you tomorrow or later today, if I can :D
