Rain still lives! & Supernatural on a new night?




I found out that these online television shows are actually called virtual series. RAIN, the one virtual series I spoke of before on my blog, is actually still around. I found it while browsing on the Buffy forums. I'm not an actual member, and I don't see why I'm not, but I enjoy reading virtual series on there. Many interesting Buffy spin-offs and loads of talented writers on it. I'm happy Beth is still making episodes, now I can read some new ones! YAHHHHHHHHHHH!

Episode 7 | Episode 8 | Episode 9

ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT AT ALL INVOLVED WITH THIS PROJECT. I'M JUST A FAN!


The other bit of information I have is Supernatural is moved to Friday nights at 8 p.m. now! I cannot believe this but I saw a promotional on CW for it when I was re-watching The Vampire Diaries and Moonlight is on after it. Then Friday, I was flipping channels and there it was on after Smallville. I'm a little annoyed and I'm not sure if it's just a summer deal, but I suppose I'm in need of a change. I just have to watch both Thursday and Friday nights!

(Yeah, I checked it and it's officially on Friday for fall's schedule...sigh...I will survive...)

Oh, and can I complain about the networking doing some new promotional material for the show? I'm sick of looking at material from Season 2, do they think they can shell some money for the current season? I know it's a veteran show but Smallville and even One Tree Hill gets new material.

As far as I've been aware lately...I've had more power than I thought I had with what I choose to say or not say. I've always been the quiet, shy girl that never speaks her mind and I still am now. But from a recent row with a brother to being unexpectedly pissed off by a friend's comment, I'm getting tired of keeping my mouth shut. I'm a pacifist, by all means, and I don't encourage fighting. I grew up with fighting all around me and I grew tired of it years ago. I'm not really talking about fighting here, it more or less is just letting people know how you truly feel about an issue.

I've decided that if I don't like someone's opinion I will let them know otherwise how I feel. It's no more keeping my trap shut even though I'd like to. It's said it does one good to do something that scares them everyday so I think this will be my "thing". I know I've been very on/off about blogging but I'm hoping to post some insightful, simple life things. I'll always talk about pop culture...in fact, I need to get into some new fads. Many of my old/recent ones are dying.

And can anyone tell me what a buffalo stance is?

Just Read

I was browsing Youtube and came across this really funny comment with an even more funny response.

Commentor: "If I had a spidey costume, I don't think I'd ever take it off."

Responder: "Then you wouldn't need spider powers...the smell alone would keep villians away."

It's been a long spring...

It's been a while since I last left a post, but that's okay because no one reads my blog except me. It is a little disappointing that comments remain at zero and so does my self-esteem.

What brings the changes? Coffee. That simple. I should not drink caffeine when I rarely do because I can't sleep all day from one 8 oz. cup of it. I decided to remodel my blog again to look crisper, more summer sheen than winter blues. The weather hasn't been too nice yet, but the humidity sneaks in the air when it can. I hate that sticky feeling, it's suffocating and hot.

My summer break is here and I have nothing to do. It prompts me to go out and get a job like everyone else. But it doesn't help that I have my anxieties to work about and my diabetes. My diabetes has been in better check lately. It hasn't been high and I figure it has to do with cutting out white starches from my diet. My nutritionist says it's the worst for blood sugars and I've noticed, but trying to stay away from them is hard. I like a piece of toast for breakfast or sandwich, and my family loves their white starches. Especially my father who has Type 2 and still eats as many carbs as he wants. And he wonders why he is fat! He needs to stop eating junk food and pop. Eliminating those two things from your diet can be a vast improvement to your health.

I don't eat pizza anymore unless it's offered at someone's home and then I'll politely eat a piece. I try to eat salad more, in fact, I ate one everyday for a while. I got sick a while back and threw up one of them so I haven't been eating them as much. I'm slowly trying to work it back into a daily meal.

I haven't seen D too much lately but she's been working on some nice improvements to her life. I'm proud that she's making big steps even if she's afraid to make them. I'm afraid of everything, dear, try leaving the house without having something to fear. Her car is very nice and if I had one like that I would get my license too, but then there's plenty of other problems within that. I'm a fan of Queer as Folk because of her now. Which reminds me of how much I miss Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I think they show reruns on TLN...but I haven't watched the channel recently.

Another thing about being rudely kept up by caffeine is enduring my drunk brother pawing on me for hugs and telling me how much he loves me. This happens pretty often and I'm a little blessed that it does, it makes me feel needed somewhere for a little bit. I have to take him up to his room, make sure he doesn't hurl in the process, and make sure he's awake for work in the morning.

I think I can do homemaker. I can cook, but I wouldn't put anyone up for eating whatever I make. I love chicken and potatoes. Well, meat and potatoes really. I'll take a home-cooked meal over fast food any day. Is it corny to want to have theme parties too? I wish my friends and I could do those. Make food and dress up and have fun. Gosh, I sound like I should be on "The Golden Girls".

Live Long and Prosper

It's been a while since I posted on my blog and it's a shame I haven't had anything to post about. I've celebrated a birthday since my last entry and that's about it. I'm waiting for spring weather to arrive since it is official spring despite the frequent cold. School takes up my time and I hate having to be there. I dislike how everyone I know thinks I love school when I absolute hate every minute I waste there. I am not a studious person and writing essays are the last thing I would want to spend extra time doing.

Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries is off hiatus and I'm hooting and hollering about that. I just wish something would happen on Supernatural, I feel like this whole season's plot of Michael and Lucifer keeps getting sidelined. It's more than half way into the season and I wish something would be happening. Last week involved a nice involvement of Bobby which sadly has only made brief appearances all season. All I want is a some more episodes about the horsemen and what the hell is up with Lucifer? Where is the guy?

I'm getting very fed up I'm starting to find the Vampire Diaries more fulfilling of my time and it's a shame to say so. I mean the show is a soap opera. Lies, deceit, and secrets. But I'm constantly wondering what the hell is going in. It could be the show is brand new, fresh in story and characters. Maybe after several years I'll get fed up and move on. I love Ian Somerhalder as the love-torn Damon. He is a true character of interest because he is cruel and deceiving as he can be nice and throwing jokes around. I never know what he will do next and usually it involves killing someone.

I'll continue watching and possibly being surprised or bored. WHATEVER. I'm going back to watching "Star Trek". Spock out.

I've got my mind set on you!

Netflix is down for maintenance so I'm posting a new entry.

I watched a John Lennon documentary in one of my classes today and I've had this song stuck in my head all day...

Why Geocities Dumping Free Websites Has to Me!

Ever since I heard about Geocities getting rid of all their free websites they host, it's been persisitly bugging me. Why you may ask? Despite the fact that half if not most of the sites hosted are well over ten years old and haven't been updated in years, they were still amazing sites to visit.

One of my favorite fandoms is the 3 Ninja series and the only real websites you could find on these movies were free Geocities ones that fans had made themselves. When I visited these sites they provided information about alternate versions I didn't know about, plenty of fanfiction (and your pretty lucky if you find any good fanfiction for the movies now...) and lots of pictures.

I realize all the web designing was simplified and there was a lot of bad quality with the pictures or text. But what they offered more than anything made that up. Now websites like 3 Ninjas Galaxy, 3 Ninjas Online, and 3 Ninjas Rock On! are all gone. Most of their owners probably completely forgot about these pages but because of them I was able to discover more about one of my favorite movie series from when I was a kid.

Some of the websites still exist but kind of just lurk about since they don't get updated or haven't been for quite some time. I'm glad some can still be viewed and that some new websites have popped up in the last few years for 3 Ninjas' fans. I wanted to make a pretty complete and official website to the series but that's a big goal and one right now I can't fill. I wish there was an actual domain for this series since I know there are still fans out there. And I wish I could find older fans, most seem to be 14 year old girls and I'm a little older than that!

Here are some 3 Ninjas that still exist today:

The Extreme 3 Ninjas Website
3 Ninjas Peprally!
3 Ninjas Fanfic Central
3 Ninjas #1

There are several more that you can find but here are some on a quick browse. If you were ever involved with any 3 Ninjas sites of the past please leave me a comment because I'd love to hear about it!
