Life June 25, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — michaelmnb @ 5:25 pm

Life is just screwed up right from the start. Nothing ever happens the way you wanted it to, and it usually never will. However, you can’t just let all of the failures and bad things take over. You need to keep going on with the positives in life, not the negatives. Let things go. Move on with your life. Don’t just stop and stare at all the bad things that have happened. That path takes you nowhere. You have to act, you have to perservere, and you have to believe. Good things WILL happen. You just have to look at it in a different way. Maybe it wasn’t exactly how you had planned it out, but you still got good things out of it. Don’t drag yourself down so easily. Pick yourself back up and continue on.

I THINK that was motivational…

 

What If? June 25, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — michaelmnb @ 5:18 pm

Ah, the universal question that everyone asks. What if? There are actually two books of this question, they both are comprised of several essays about what would have happened in history if something had gone differently. Ex. What if America lost the revolutionary war? Well, most of us probably wouldn’t be here right now. I highly suggest that some of you read the books. Just plainly titled “What If”. Look it up in your local library. ;)

Anyways, it’s time for my own what if essay. This has to do with Pwnt, Neomia, and all other computer related things. Here we go:

Approximately two years ago, I was walking by my office and saw that the computer was off. Now, at this time I hadn’t gone on the computer in like, two months, in an effort to stay off of it. So I said to myself, “You know what, I’ll just go on anyway, just to look at neopets.” And that’s what I did. Now, what if I didn’t turn on the computer that day? Well, things would be quite different for me. First, I wouldn’t have seen the latest neo plot. The plot which led me to Jellyneo. Jellyneo caused me to be noticed by Pekka, who invited me to Neomia. (Another What If. If I hadn’t accepted, I probably would’ve just been invited to Pwnt later) At Neomia, I wouldn’t have seen 1337 and Patrick talking about updates on Test Panel. (Yet ANOTHER what if) I wouldn’t have inquired about it, 1337 wouldn’t have said it was a secret, and it might not have been put up as a link on NEOMIA! So yeah. If I hadn’t gone on the computer that day I might not be on Pwnt today. :O

 

Giveaway- A Day Away June 16, 2008

Filed under: Giveaways — michaelmnb @ 6:53 pm

Yeah so my big giveaway is a day away. :D I think I’ve amassed enough codes for everyone to take three…although I’m not sure. The other day I made an additional 100 or so just to be sure. I’m also including some tokens in random amounts. A bunch of 1ks, maybe a 5k, and then tons of 100T codes. So hopefully it’ll be pretty successful. :D

 

Pwnt, Deaths, Blah June 13, 2008

Yeah well I’m not even gonna bother coding out this blag entry. So today at around 4 PM I heard that Tim Russert died. Lets all take a moment of silence to remember him. *silence*

So 1337 wanted more blag entries….here ya go. :P

Blah. Blah blah blah. Yeah, thats about all I got. OH! I’m going away July 4th week to the beach. yeah. :P

Patrick! The Inspiration! June 10, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — michaelmnb @ 8:44 pm

As I look back a year or so, I realize that many things would be different in my life if it weren’t for my pal, Patrick.

A great author once wrote:
In life I take the path less travelled – and that has made all the difference.

That path for me would be Neomia. I had always gotten JN mails about some great new site, but for some reason I chose Neomia to join. If I hadn’t joined Neomia, so many things would be different. First off, I wouldn’t have met Patrick. Patrick is the inspirational coding god responsible for Neomia. He’s just plain AWESOME! I mean, some of his TV choices are…skeptical *cough* Ed Edd and Eddy *cough* but he’s a great guy. Always there when you need him, and he throws in a bunch of funny stuff too. He’s also one of the only people, unlike 1337, to be able to hold a 2 hour+ conversation. Everyone should strive to be a Patrick! But remember, you can never actually BE a Patrick, because only Patrick is Patrick. Plus, name changing is too darn HARD! All the legal things, eww.

Back to Patrick. Patrick is so cool, that he’s found a way to get a LIFE! Yes, this is something most of you cannot, and will not, ever understand. He’s found his own life to live in. His own girlfriend. His own everything. No you cannot download a life. Sorry, 1337.

So now, I am making my own quote.

In life I took the path with Patrick- And that has made all the difference.

Cheers to Patrick!

First let me just say this to Pekka: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I got to talk to Patrick today! By now Pekka, you’re probably steaming mad. Yeah, you probably are. And this makes me more special…again. We talked about life, Neomia, this blog entry. Yeah, it was a pretty darn fun thing. =) You REALLY should’ve been there. tsk tsk, it’s a shame. Tell you what, I’ll just post the entire conversation here for you to marvel at! :D Yes, what a wonderful idea.

Michael says:
just to get Pekka jealous.

Neomia- A new life has begun June 10, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — michaelmnb @ 1:26 pm

Well, Neomia has started to uh….come back to life a bit. Patrick has put back the shoutbox (so now I can talk! :D ) and he’s even making some improvements. I mean, he’s not coding new worlds, but it’s still nice to have SOME new things. Also, Pekka has planned some revenge on me for banning him. xP Dunno what it could be though. *keeps eyes and ears open*

 

A Day Off -YES! June 10, 2008

Filed under: School — michaelmnb @ 1:25 pm

Ok, so recently in NJ it has been, ehhh 95-102 degrees F. Brian will agree with me. :P So on Monday we got a half day of school because it was so hot. The classrooms were boiling because they were closed all weekend in the heat! Only one of our classes had air conditioning, so that meant that all of the others were about 90 degrees. Joy. =.= So now it’s Tuesday and my mom isn’t even making me go to school today. :D It would be another half day of just studying for finals in 90 degrees, but now I can study in air conditioning and talk on Pwnt at the same time. =)

Yeah, thats about it…
