Let's get the Flock out of here.

I'm going to try and bring all of these web logs back. You see, I've lately been daunted by the idea of keeping all of my sites updated. On top of that, I haven't had the Internet at my house, and Netscape just kicked me off of itself, because it's apparently going to be discontinued.
But those seem to have righted each other. You see, Netscape pushed me on to some bizarre third-party thing called "Flock." I was less than thrilled at first, because it called itself "the social web browser," so I was worried that it would do something stupid, like allow others to use my account or something (I'm still a little worried). But, it has its own built-in blog poster, which I'm trying now. If this works, I'll be able to post to Xanga, Blogger, LiveJournal, and two new ones: Blogsome and WordPress (maybe I should stop getting random accounts) at once. That leaves only Yahoo 360°, MySpace, Gather, and Gaia Online to copy and paste to (that is, after transferring my back entries, which I may not do with these new ones.
Also, I got an account at a site called "Schola," so you don't have to worry about any more Latin entries. Spanish, I don't know about. I need a way to keep these separate, but don't know what it should be.

Translations

Alright, I've procrastinated long enough: here is the translation of my previous two entries:

Saturday, 13 October, 2007: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore Generally, I write my blogs like I obtained them: I start in Xanga, and then copy and paste it into Yahoo 360º, MySpace, Gather, Blog City, Blogger, and finally Gaia Online, but now I'm starting with Gather because I'm in school, and the others are blocked.
I'm in school because yesterday I worked until midnight on my homework for history class. I had to write an essay about the first kings of Buddhism, Christianity, and IslÄ?m. I had a month in which to do it, but only started it last night, after book club.
Sorry I can't say more. Tomorrow? I don't usually write in Spanish when it isn't necessary, but... Monday, 15 October, 2007

More?


Well, it isn't tomorrow, but I wasn't sure of what I was going to write for you. And this raises a good question: do I have Spanish-speaking readers, and do they want to read more from me? I have comments on these entries, but do they come back to read more? If you want, I can write more, but I don't think that I could--or would want to--translate it all. I already am not going to translate it into Latin any more.

Dear diary...

[This is a translation of my previous two posts]
We just learned in my Spanish class that we have to write a diary entry every other Friday (a two-weekery?) in order to practise our informal writing. And when they say "diary," I hear "blog." Thus you, my readers, get to partake of my homework. Don't everybody celebrate at once...
For this assignment, our teacher stated that we should write something around sixty words. This is ridiculous! I have already written seventy words [or at least I had in Spanish], and I haven't said anything! Well, I do often write things with more than five hundred words in this blog (I think). So, I'm going to ignore this rule in the future, when I have more to talk about.

All your blog are belong to us.

Here's an odd thing: Xanga has finally added full Unicode support! But, it depends upon your language settings. So, for us multi-language bloggers, it's back to square one.
In other news, apparently, Gather automatically creates an RSS feed for its users. So, if anyone actually wants to get up-to-the-minute updates on my blogging, or publish my blog on, say, their Yahoo 360° page--hey, it does stand for Real Simple Syndication, after all--you now have the tools to do so.
Now, as for the first week of school: my actual finalised schedule is:

1) Physics (Gilbertson, A226)
2)AP Stats (Pelkey, A204)
3)AP Spanish (Qualley, South Campus)
4)Open
5)World History (CLC) Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (open other days)
6)AP Lit (Hewitt, A162)

Or, the same as I already told you. They're fairly interesting.
In other news, we had our this year's first meeting of the Library teen advisory board: The High Council of Younger Elders. And we are sorely in need of members--especially ones that won't graduate in the next year or two. I don't think that we have gotten any new members since its creation two years ago. It meets the first Thursday of every month at the Brainerd Public Library at 4:00PM. We plan activities, such as game days and rocket making. You can join at a meeting, or send a message to any of their pages, or e-mail them at HCYE.brd@gmail.com. Anyone 11-19 is welcome, even if they aren't permanent residents of Brainerd--i.e. foreign exchange students.
Also, I went to a football game with my friend Jamp. And apparently, football is in fact very boring. Neither of us had ever actually been to a football game before, and so at least I thought that it would be most of the team--with a few benched players--running around after discussing their strategy at, say, quartertime. So we were both surprised to see that about an eighth of both teams actually played, and that was about seventy per cent huddling. Home ended up winning, 30 to 7--all of the last score was done in the fourth quarter--which means that there wasn't even the interest of wondering who was going to win, because the other team sucked so much--or maybe our team just has no life and practises 24/7.
So, my AP Spanish teacher said that we should live in Spanish. I already have my cell phone in Spanish, and I'm not going to completely switch my blog language, but perhaps a single entry? I don't want to re-live my Dog Latin--which is roughly the Latin equivalent of Spanglish--entry--perhaps a new Latin one is also an order--but I think that I could pull it off.

Thursday, May 31, 2007: Perfect.

Well, mum hasn't payed the electric bill. for the moment, we're staying at her boyfriend's house. She spends when she is depressed--and she's never been good at finances. So the pups are at home, and we're going to put them in a kennel here, once we get it cleaned out.

But, on the bright side, school is out. I've gotten a Spanish four book to study. Come autumn, I'll be ready for AP.
