Rubik's Cubes & Related Topics

Arr, hello there mateys! Step aboard the Good Ship Virgil! All ashore who's goin' ashore!
*cue theme music* La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's World! La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's World! Virgil loves Tom Felton and pirates too! That's Virgil's whhhirrled! *end theme music*
(In case you haven't noticed, I'm a pirate today. I'll explain that later. Arrr.)

Philosophical Statement of the Day:
It recently occurred to me that life is like a Rubik's Cube. I'm not entirely sure how/why, but I intend to find out.
*
Now, onto more important business. I just discovered (and by "just" I literally mean, like, two seconds ago) that the name "Virgil" anagrams to "Girl VI" which is so jokes because I'm the sixth girl to post on this blog every week. Of course, it also anagrams to "Girl IV" but that's not nearly as jokes, because I'm not the fourth one to post. 
As you probably know, today is Saturday, June 19th, 2010. That means that yesterday was Friday, June 18th, 2010. Do you know what that means? THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER OFFICIALLY OPENED YESTERDAY!! (House failed to mention this in her post.) AND I GET TO GO THERE IN LESS THAN A MONTH. ARRRR LUDI ARRRR (The "AHHH LUDI AHHH" is changed today because I am a pirate. Arrr.)(Even though ninjas are still way more awesome.) I watched the grand opening on Mugglenet, and a ton of the stars from the movies were there, including Tom Felton (he plays Draco Malfoy, for those of you who don't know) whom I plan on marrying someday. I haven't told him yet, though. Us folks on the Dark Side may have lied about the cookies, but we have him, so it's all good.

Speaking of the Dark Side, the other day I saw a flair on facebook that said something like, "Come to the darkside - we have Snape. Oh wait, no we don't. Oh wait, yes we do. No, we don't. Yes, we do. Oh, just... never mind." It made me smile. =D

I'm listening to some songs from that band House mentioned called A Rocket to the Moon. They're quite good.
(Oh dear, I must work on this whole segway-into-another-topic thing. You see, in writing, you can just start another chapter. Maybe I should start dividing posts into chapters so that it will be easier to randomly switch topics. I'll just slide in a little asterisk and hope nobody notices.)

I leave for Reading Camp tomorrow!! I'm very excited, because I get to learn how to read... haha no. Actually, I'm a junior counselor - the campers are younger kids who live in the inner city, and they are at least a year behind where they should be in terms of reading level, if not more. The camp is PIRATE THEMED, and we had a counselor meeting today, so we were all getting into the pirate spirit. Arr. So yeah, it should be fun. I'll have no access to a computer all week (it's an overnight camp), so don't be offended if I don't comment on anybody's posts. It's not because I don't like you. I should be able to fulfill my Curly Fry duties next Saturday, though.

I was creeping on Momo's YouTube channel last night and I saw a little birthday message to me. (Was I supposed to not watch it? Er...) Momo, you're a sweetie. And I liked your diva disguise.

*Question Time!!*
1) Translate: Arrr arr yo-ho arr swashbuckling arrr mateys... ahoy!
2) What does your name anagram to?
3) Have you ever read Looking for Alaska?
4) Do you think it would be cool for us to have a 6LCF book club - like, we could all read the same book and then like... discuss it? It could be open to other people who read the blog too (are ya there?).
5) All in favour say "aye" all opposed say "nay."
6) I nominate Looking for Alaska for our first book! All in favour say "aye," all opposed say "nay."
7) Is there a different book you would like to nominate?

DFTBA,
PDBAZ,
Peace, Love, & Otters,

Virgil

P.S. Even though some of us won't be here, I think we should still do a collab post for Father's Day, k?

  1. Virgil, isn't Tom Felton just a /little/ bit old for you? Just pointing this out.

    1)[Random pirate-y noises] wonderful [noise]friends--hi!
    2) "ixy," "yix," or "yxi." None of them are real words. :p
    3)Nopeses, though it apparently involves (*hem*, spoilers?) smoking, suicidal tendencies, and Crest toothpaste. Oh, and car crashes.
    4)Yeah! We could do one chapter a week and discuss it on Sundays, maybe. Or it could be sort of like a theme week.
    5)Aye!
    6)Meeeeh. I don't care; however, it may take me about a week to procure a copy, so we can't start the book club off too fast.
    7)I dunno. Let's see... Well, I'd nominate A Game of Thrones, but it's a really long book and has some REALLY R-rated stuff in it; plus, Lynda hates the book (even though it's AWESOME).
    So, I guess I'll nominate any Discworld book (Going Postal and Night Watch being my particular favorites).

    4. That'd be cool.
    5. Aye.
    6. Nay, but only because I already read it. We can't start until we're all here though.
    7. I don't know, we could nominate one from the book list school gave us.
