Quotes, Robin Hood, and xkcd

"Rise and rise again. Until lions become lambs." 
Robin Hood (2010)

"I don't like you, House. I hate you." 
—The television drama series House

"As a gift to myself, I will never forgive you." 
—Anon


Hello.


First off, we (as in Lynda and I) have discovered this magic wonder thing called making a new page. Lynda has made her own "DUDE LOOK WE CAN MAKE NEW PAGES!" page, and I, following suit, made a quotes page. But here's the only problem: only three of the six Curly Fries have edited the page with their quotes. The three that have been kind and added their quotes are the three Asian Curly Fries. I think this is simply a bit more proof that Asians = Win.
But anyway, to the others that haven't yet added their quotes/removed their name (*Cough* Virgil, Momo, Carrie *Cough*)... yeah. A bit of a reminder ^_^ (*Cough* Or imma eatchoo. *Cough*) 


In other news, we've officially been on break for one week. And, dude, I'm still not used to this whole no-classes thing. It's seriously been messing me up. (*Wakes up* *Looks at clock* "10:34? Crap, I'm late for- oh, wait... dudeee." [This has happened to me way too many times over the past week. It's sad.])


This week, I saw Robin Hood. It was pretty good, I guess. A bit too action-y for my liking, but still a decent movie. Just as Virgil told me, there's a pretty wicked fiddle part in the film score, which makes the movie instantly awesome.


Because I guess it's a thing that we do, I'm following suit of xiy and linking the new xkcd comic for today:
(Don't worry, you non-programmers... us more common folk get this one :) )

This week, I learned that I like this band called A Rocket to the Moon ^_^


(*Rereads* Yeah, the summer's going a bit slow... but I guess that's what summer... does...?)


Questions:
1) What is your favourite kind of cookie?
2) What is your favourite music album?
3) Are you used to this summer thing yet?
4) Have you added/made a change to the Quote page yet?
5) Are you a dinosaur?
6) Mac or PC? [Remember, snipers in the trees...]
7) Do you think it's perfectly acceptable to tell someone that you shouldn't be friends with them if they answer "PC" to the previous question? [Snipessss...]
[8) Virgil, where's my draft? Girrlll, if you ask me to beta something, I've gotta fit you into my schedule. Give me an estimate. A month, a few days, a week... never... when should I expect it? *Sigh* Writers.]


Best wishes!
(Just kidding.)


With all due respect,
House

Saturday (insert clever aliteration here)

The day you've been waiting for all week is finally here! It's SATURDAY!! (pause for applause - hey, that rhymes!)
I'm typing exceptionally fast today because I just got back from a very long game of tennis with my dad, and I guess tennis exercises (ugh, I can never spell that word. I had to go look it up) your fingers... or something. Or maybe I'm just in a fast-typing mood. Anyways, on to business. Today, I learned that Robin Hood's last name wasn't "Hood," it was "Longstride." Robin Hood was his hood name. More on that later. This post is going to come to you in FIVE PARTS but don't worry, they'll be short.

Part 1) New updates on my "Virgil" fanfiction account!! Although I write fanfiction that doesn't go on this account, these are the pieces that I don't mind my friends and readers seeing. This is a link to my author page: CLICK ME! I recommend "Behind the Curtain" (which is currently the second one on the list) but "The Rat's Lament" is also new (hence, it has no reviews... yet).

Part 2) INFINITUS!! Ahh!!! There's going to be a Harry Potter conference called Infinitus at the Wizarding World theme park this July, and guess who's going - me!! We're going to have the geek party of the century. I am so pumped, it's actually kind of ridiculous.

Part 3) I saw Robin Hood last night, and it was so good! The plot was quite drawn-out though; it was probably about half an hour longer than it really needed to be, but who cares? Plus, I'm related to Stereotypical Dim-Witted King :]

Part 4) 17 more days of school!!! We only have two more five-day weeks, and then Memorial Day week, and then the last week of school!

Part 5) My big sister tried on her cap and gown last night *sniff, sniff* she's growin' up! Tonight's her prom, and she just got her hair done up all nice and perty.

So, yeah. This is a relatively short post (well, compared to my other posts) but then again, I'm quite a short person. I might be the shortest of the 6LCF. ("So why do they call you Little John?" "What are you trying to insinuate? I am proportional!" - Robin Hood)

DFTBA,
PDBAZ,
Peace, Love, & Otters,

Virgil
