MONETIZE MY BLOG!?

I could monetize this son of a bitch and make pennies, pennies, I say, per month! I won't do that, though, because then I can't gloat more about all these shitty blogs with ads all over their shit. I provide all this high quality entertainment for free and you fags are asking for money? I think not.
Oh right, today's blog. I see ads, but that might just be Livejournal~
I didn't even really read today's blog before diving into this entry, but from the sounds of it our boy needs knocked down a peg. As Don Henley said (I hate the Eagles) "kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down."

That's a bad word now, isn't it? ^_~

^_~ faggot.

Well. School was quite fun today.

>school
>fun
what

Swedish class went by rather quickly, after which I had some lunch and then proceeded to call a certain English girl who sounded very sleepy . So damn cute.

HEY GUYS I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND. I'M JUST SAYING.

Anyways, that really made me happy and energetic and just... happy! <3

Whatever, putz. By your emoticons I'm sure you're just upset she doesn't have a dick.

I banded together with the more talented people in my class, gamesdev-wise, and we've decided to make a semi-3D roleplaying-game in Microsoft's XNA environment.

You can't have part of a dimension, people. Either it's full 3D or it's 2D with models rendered in 3D. Knock this whole "2.5D" shit off.

Also, mischievous rabbit is mischievous? =D When I got home from school, her damn cage was open and she was happily hopping about in the living room. ^^';

:|
Ok gearing up for the world's longest entry ever, and I'm actually going to read at least part of it before skipping.

Upon walking through the gates to the arrivals hall, my eyes find a very specific girl amongst the other randomers, smiling. I walked towards her, but she disappeared. Then I heard a voice that I've heard through my headset oh-so many times before. Upon turning around, I was welcomed by the most heartwarming embrace I've ever felt. I've known her online for over a year, and I just couldn't believe she could be as nice a person in real life as she was online, but... she's all that, and much more.

k
also: lol internet romances

I acted as her pillow on the train ride back.

Heh

A while later, Bry came back down and said she couldn't sleep. She cuddled up beside me on the couch, and... we kissed. And Gods, did it feel wonderful.

I hate it when people say "gods" instead of "God" because they're Pagan or some shit. Talk proper, Christ. I don't believe in God or gods or Jesus Christ either but that doesn't keep me from invoking his name every other second, inevitably at something douchey one of you assholes said. Dipshits.

Saturday, the 8th of August, was a very special day.

Ah, she slobbed your knob. Say no more, my man.

The most important reason the 8th is a special day, though, is that it was the day upon which me and Bryony officially got together, which is something that means so much I can't put words to it.

Yep.
Really you don't need to go into details, bro. I get you.

Skegness was really fun.

Excuse me?
I don't know what (or where, for that matter) "Skegness" is but it sounds treatable.
Ok I can't read any more, good grief.
Moving on~

Meaning, I can play a song perfectly in theory, but my damn hands just can't do it.

That's a convenient excuse.

Then I made a new EVE Online account (shock!) and played 'till four in the morning.

Oh you played a screen saver until four in the morning?

It appears as though 2009 is approaching rather quickly.

Oh what, I just skipped nine months' worth of entries? Goddamn, kid. You're boring as fuck. I'd read a sentence, then skip, read a sentence, then skip for a whole nine months? Bro. Seriously. Liven up. Say something interesting once in a while. It won't kill you to have a personality.
This blog is left with so little content (five minutes spread across at least nine whole months) I'm left with little else to say.
So here's a humorous picture to amuse you:

You sure do lead an ironic life

How many times should the word "ironically enough" appear in a blog? I'd argue 0 times because if it's truly (and humorously) ironic then the irony should be apparent from the situation. It's like when someone says "PUN INTENDED". When you have to point out that you did something clever or funny, you have already fucked up in exactly the same way as when you have to explain a joke.
So here we are, Mace's Thoughts.
Mace might be a guy named after a weapon or a girl whose full name is Macy, I don't know at this point.
Oh also Mace fancies himself (herself, whatever) a writer, as do all people on Livejournal. Writers, actors, directors, artists.

I started my story (or stories rather... or novels...whatever) a long time ago. First as shortstories, basically taking my first limps (I dare not call it steps) as a writer.

So whatever I don't really care how you decided you wanted to move from Harry Potter fanfiction to Bleach fanfiction.

At the end of my stint in that fantasy club, after much soulsearching, and realizing that German wasn't (ironically enough) my language when it came to writing (after all most of the books I was reading/am still reading are in English).

k

I never learned to learn, ironically enough.

That sure is ironic. At this juncture I'd like to make my typical statement that things that are interesting (to you, naturally, because it's stupid and boring to me) aren't automatically ironic. Irony has a fairly strict definition that you can't just apply to fill that void of "don't know what to say at this point". This shit doesn't even need qualification, actually. Surprisingly I'm not a complete illiterate and can follow your thoughts from one point to another.
Also "learning to learn" creates an impossible cycle of events. If you have to learn to learn, you could never learn to learn because you'd require the skill to acquire it.

When I didn't understand something I lost interest... unfortunately my mother (who incidentally is/was an elementary school teacher) told me she never had the force of will to get me to learn this stuff.

Oh, incidentally? Sure it's not ironically?

Last year, I met an old friend of mine whom I finished school with.

With whom I finished school* but whatever.

That's when I began to rewrite the novel again. Not everything, mind you, but those parts that were "wrong". No, I'm not going to detail every bloody thing (OK, I detail lots of bloody things, read gore) but with the alterations so far it feels even more alive. Also, I will restructurte the entire book.

Because details = showing and not telling, am I right?
Let's compare and contrast these:
The man happened into a room. There was a body in it.
The man happened into the room with the corpse. There was blood on the walls and a knife on the table.
Which is better? I'd argue they both suck, but I don't think I could argue the second one is less detailed than the first. Adjectives aren't the magic fix-all of storytelling, chief.

Amazingly enough people don't quit smoking because the price has gone up. The government is counting on that, ironically enough.

That damn government and their humorous ironies!
Now he's arguing the government wants the people to smoke so they can collect tax dollars on the cigarettes which is a brilliant hypothesis ignoring for the moment that I'm sure the hospital bills you assholes rack up with your cancer and shit outweighs the taxes the government collects, and being in Germany you have socialized medicine so the government foots 100% of that bill, so whatever.

Now there's a ton of entries I don't really understand because I'm not a fucking mental patient.
Given that I only gamed for 23 or so years, no, I'm no dinosaur of gaming...neanderthal of gaming maybe.

Nope definitely don't care about this.

yeah, well, I'm having a StarWars moment...trench and all that...

Ah?

Anyway, back to me book...yea there are kinks still....what? You thought I'm perfect?

I sure did, Mace!

or me being kwazy enough to send those 600+ manuscript pages via mail to some publishers...

Oh I'm sure they'll read all 600 pages and get right back to you (brotip: they chucked it without even looking at the title. Try sending a cover letter first).
Now here's a long post dealing with religion and it ends with him mentioning he's listening to "Cradle of Filth". Cool story, bro.

I also like magic-users to be more powerful than fighters.

Why?

Um... I dunno... cuz Merlin could hand Arthur his ass every day of the week?

Considering Excalibur (and the sheathe, more approximately) made him invincible I doubt it.
To make a long and stupid (and hard to follow at times) post shorter: it's called balance, bro. Not everyone is interested in your totally awesome wizard as you are.

and videogames in general bore me after a while (WoW lasted 7 months and that was that!).

>WoW
>video gamesNow there's 100000 entries about Dungeons and Dragons (not reading)
and that's the end of the blog. Well, Mace, thanks for keeping it real.

You suck at spelling holy fuck

I've long since given up on people and spelling. Individual or collective no one can spell worth a goddamn. I'm one of a dying breed. So I've learned to accept this and move on. There's bad spelling, then there's spelling extra with an 's'.
Also douchey user name but frankly if that surprises you at this point you're easy to surprise.

When I was younger, I wanted to be accepted into the spanish riding school in vienna. I wanted it more than anything. for the past 500 yrs they have only accepted male riders and I had this plan where I would dress as a man and somehow get accepted. Its part of the reason i initialy took german in high school, thats one of the requirments.

500 year old riding school that only accepts males, what is this where knights used to send their kids?

I just found out that last yr they final droped thier ban on women and allowed 2 girls into the school. Thats awsome.

Not really. I remember (well not really remember, but whatever) the last woman who tried to pull off the knight routine.
Didn't end well for her.
Showed those Britishfags what for, though.

Research and science is a deep part of me, but equaly as deep is my yearn for horses. I may never make it to the olympic, but I don't need that.

Research and science but apparently not grammar, spelling or diction, good Christ.

Yeah, the once in a rare event that a hurrican *actualy* goes this far north, and I am *actualy* on the right side of the country....I'm ofcource too far inland to exsperience it.

Wow my brain almost had a spelling explosion. I'm going to spot her "hurrican" because she spells it right in the title, but really it's "actually", lady phonics.

Darn, I was wanting my exstreme weather.

Every x is immediately followed by an s. This happens nowhere at all in the English language so I'm not really sure where she got this.
Actually I do know. This is probably the result of a popular practice in the early 90s to "spell it like it sounds" because as we all know it's much, much easier to correct bad habits than to just learn right in the first place.
Further proof the educational standards in America are as disconnected from reality as everyone accuses them of being.

We had some sever tornado warnings the other day. the same day, ironicaly, my friend and I decided to go out to dinner.

Not fucking ironic but whatever.

as were leaving, I look out my window and notice that there is a very very smal patch of clear sky, slowly being swalloed up by the ominous clouds. By the time I set my foot out the door the sky is almost black and very very engry.

so what do i do?
"ye ha! lets go for it."
Half way there it is pouring. like uber pouring, and my roomate is not amused. We have 1 umbrella between us that isn't doing a bloody thing.
To make matters worse...there is crazy thinder and lightning very very cose. I don't like that.

I have a blanket reaction for everything: the stupidity of the actions taken, the spelling, everything:
So here's an Rorschach ink blot test and it asks what I think it is. She said the Green Goblin from Spider-Man and I said a Skaven from Warhammer, which I don't think proves anything other than we're both huge nerds.

As far as my project is concerned, I did an exstensive literature review and designed a pretty awsome exsperiment from that from the ground up...

Hope whatever you type that shit on has a brutal spell checker.
Also there's something terrifying about you working for the CDC. I know your ability to spell "experiment" has nothing to do (really) with how well you perform that action, but I don't know I'd feel more comfortable if you were capable of spelling what you did for a living. It shows a certain command of basic skills that I think are important if you're going to combat contagions. I don't know, tell me if that sounds completely off basis.

Grah, writing a personal statment seems to be an exsersize in emotional exstremes.

I never notice how prevalent the letter x is until this blog.

I was also looking at my grades and well, I have a 3.3 right now. I've brought it up a good amount. And Assuming I pull another 4.0 I can get it up to 3.4 by the time I graduate. Thats fully respiectible.

APPARENTLY NONE OF YOUR CLASSES ARE ENGLISH BECAUSE EVEN IN THE DIMINISHED STANDARDS OF 2009 YOU WOULD HAVE FAILED.
I *really* want a prius and it looks as if I can offord the early modles.
At first I thought the particularly atrocious spelling was funny but now I'm starting to get a headache.
What? Hi! Sorry I just wandered away for three and a half flow-breaking hours.
Uhhh... Entry over, I guess.
