I'm Back.

I've stupidly forgot to update my blog, but i do have an update. I've gotten a new game: Pokémon White. with the DSi, Reshriam and Zekrom Edition.

The Game is great. though its a Pokémon game, so i was bound to like it. but at any rate.

id like to talk about how your support keeps me going,  and the more support i have, the more games i can buy and review for you. Thanks.

My Weekend

Well, my week was interesting.

Lets start with Wednesday.

• My Girlfriend broke up with me because she saw the side of me that wouldn't take peoples shit...I guess "Wie gewonnen, so gewonnen"

Now comes my German State Competition
Friday:

• From 4th period I left one campus to go to the other. (We have 2 high schools)
• Head up to Austin from Houston, with 40 people on a bus.
• Get bored on the 4 hour bus ride sitting on this laptop listening to music and playing Minecraft (of course.)
• Get to the hotel and put our things in our room in our (surprisingly) not half-bad Motel 8 room
• Go up to Barton Creek and meet family here.
• Buy old N64 games at brand new price(though they all play great) in a place called Press Play (AWESOME PLACE)
• Head to the hotel and play in the pool for an hour and a half. 
• Have so much fun!
• Minecraft, then sleep

Saturday:

• Wake up at 5:45AM
• Downstairs for breakfast at 6:30 in 50% folk dance uniform.
• eat
• move a gingerbread church
• leave 30 minutes late because of someone not turning on their phone or talking to any of the chaperones and having them look for him the whole time.
• get to UT Austin and unpack everything in a painfully slow fashion.
• walk into main building (UTC, where 3 of my four events are.)
• deliver gingerbread houses, and there were some GOOD houses there. I may post pictures once i get them.
• Skit 1 1st, Rapunzel. didn't miss a beat, did great.
• accidentally signed up for an event at 10:30 instead of 11:30
• resigned up for event
• Folk Dancing at 10:20, didn't get in till 10:30, the group before us was intimidating and danced with benches.
• Walked in, went mostly great, but we messed up at the very first beat: 1 TOO MANY couples
• 1st dance great, Boarischer besides having 18 when the max was 16
• 2nd dance great, Aggatanz
• 3rd dance went great (though they marked us down for our lift "failing" (it didn't) Man in Heu
• 4th dance great, all male plattl, Praxplattl
• 5th dance went great, Ziller
• by the end we had parts of our costume all over the classroom we were preforming in.
• final score average: 130 out of 150. (would and should have been 145 out of 150, without those two errors i noted)
• after competition is over
• go down to Waterloo with 4 others including chaperone.
• horrible service.
• manager was our waiter
• pretty good food though, but would have rathered five guys. don't go
• came back to UT.
• gingerbread house was eaten
• shirts were sold out
• went down to co-op
• got a mug with my name on it. of course.
• saw the famous clocktower
• awards ceremony
• got a coffee for free from a friend
• awards:
• final place for folk dance: 10th, which is a huge accomplishment, we have never broken top ten
• final place for Gingerbread: 5th, but considering the amazing houses some of them had, that was huge.
• final place for Skit 1: 2nd! AMAZING in itself, especially because regions competition we made 4th
• like 5 people leave without the bus
• stop in bastdrop for Carl Jr.'s
• Would have Rathered five guys
• double bacon cheeseburger with fries, a drink, and BBQ sauce
• back on bus
• laptop dies. :(

• talking to the person I'm sitting with about both of our love life's.
• mine first
• about my gf
• about who likes me
• about who i like
• about how i like her, though not in a way that makes talking to each other awkard.
• about who would make a good match for me and who wouldn't, but not just who i like
• who i hate.
• now hers.
• who she likes
• who she would be good with
• etc., etc.,
• get home knowing a lot more about her, in a good way
• turn around and pinch my left calf muscle
• hurts like a boss

I'M GOING LIVE

NEVER MIND, SHITS TOO REAL.
there was a massive update and i need to get used to it.

Heres My Favroite Apps/Periphials/Addons (Mixed OS)

• CamTwist (for livestreaming desktop)
• CrossLoop (like Teamviewer, but not shitty)
• As I've said before and will most likely say again: HANDBREAK which is an awesome DVD Ripper

HONER ABLE MENTION: Openoffice.org: free Microsoft word

• Gimp VERY good free version of  photoshop
• Sequential Image viewer. goes in order, as the name says. (MAC ONLY)
• Paintbrush: Paint for Mac (OBVIOUSLY MAC ONLY)
• Screenflow; records desktop, but wont livestream. I would love to see these two as one application. (note this application does not have a link because it costs money. be creative.) (MAC ONLY)
• Steam. no explanation needed.
• Stuffit Expander will open anything. provided you have the password for it. (MAC ONLY)
• Thunderbird: mail client from Mozilla
•  TOR. again, no explanation should be needed.
• Ventrillo. like Skype, only it costs money to run a server. however, it is dramatically better and takes up much less resources for you to use.
• Vienna: how I keep in touch with my blogs that I follow (MAC ONLY)
• Visor. A transparent drop-down terminal (MAC ONLY)
• And last but not least; an application NO list would be complete without: VLC, the universal media player. I honestly have found no media file it cant play.

For My Mac People

Here's a handy and efficent app for you

 Handbrake

Its a DVD ripper.

No Longer LIVE

So, a Little About My Life.

• As most people would not suspect, i DO have a girlfriend.
• I'm in a tight knit group of friends, though me and a couple of my other friends are the newest of the group.
• Every Wednesday, I go to the public library and get to play Brawl for 2 hours.
• I am, however, the one who is picked on in school. I don't like this nor do i understand why they do it. But what can be done?
• I play Pokémon every Saturday and have fun doing it.

...Anyway, that's a little bit about my life. Any questions? Suggestions?
 

Pathfinder

I'm Going to go play Pathfinder with my friends in a couple of hours. ill give a rundown of thoughts on the game, though I've played it before and know its good.

MY THOUGHTS:

• Solid base, like D&D
• Unlike D&D, it is easily diversified and stretched to the limits of the GM's mind.
• All-around easy game to learn, everyone caught on really quickly for 3 people who had never played.
• Mostly simple with an easy interface, but not a simple game at all.
• Its fun to play, espically since im around friends.

 
 I'll be broadcasting minecraft after I'm back, at about 11-12 Central Time, head to http://blogtv.com/people/jrdgent12

First Post.

I dont have much to say besides that i would like to encourage everyone to check out http://blogtv.com/people/jrdgent12 where i will be live streaming Minecraft for those who want to watch.
