Party Time - Day 22

I'll go ahead and start off today's blog by apologizing for the lack of updates over the week. I wasn't at home a lot of the time or I just didn't have anything good to write about.

I'll go ahead and start this blog off by discussing the presidential debate-esque thing that happened on Thursday. The audience is only IB kids, firstly. And this made me realize something. That was the only population that really cared. Everyone else just votes because a piece of paper gets shoved in their face and all they really have to do is circle a name. Anyway, the questions are generic and so are the answers. Alysia informs us that she is, in fact, approachable. SO APPROACHABLE. MAYBE EVEN UNCOMFORTABLY APPROACHABLE. She may even approach you.

And not only was that her only answer for every question, Lillian and Cassie followed suit. Lillian basically had her generically oriented period on the discussion, and Cassie had the exact speech that I thought she would. "I put a microwave in the cafeteria and I'm completely oblivious as to what StuBo president actually does."

Moving backwards a little bit, I'd just like to point out that approachability is a non-issue nowadays because of the following reasons: 1. In order to run for StuBo president you obviously have some amount of approachability in the first place, 2. approachability is easy in the age of facebook, where contacting someone is a click and some button pusheys away.

Moving onwards into the future, I was also disappointed with the way they shot down a lot of the jokier questions. Diplomatically, you should give those kinds of questions as good of an answer you can or use your wit to joke them back, being your should-be-charismatic self. But instead what generally happened is that when Sam stood up to talk, the rest of everyone decided to ignore it. What the fuck is that? A leader is supposed to listen to the people they lead, not be an ass about it. God dammit, you can't just go "Oh, no, you're dumb." BECAUSE THAT PERSON IS WHO IS VOTING YOU GIANT DUMB FUCK.

I appreciate Sam for being the only candidate with half a brain and the ability to be aware of situations and control them accordingly. I also expect the most good and the most change from Sam. Alysia and Cassie are sheep and will follow what the other cabinet members tell them, and Lillian will keep things exactly the way they are now, except more annoyingly?

SAMMY WILL PUT HIS HAMMY IN YOUR FANNY

I also encourage you guys to pick up professionally made shirts from Sam as opposed to the shitty spray paint PoSs that Lillian made.

Moving on, I'd like to maybe talk about debate, seeing as that's where I was this weekend. I was judging, and it was awesome. I didn't really get to talk to people as much as I would have liked to, but that's okay. Good times were had by all nonetheless.

Hm, I guess that's all I had to say. That sucks.

Oh, I know what I want to talk about. I got nominated for Loyalty Court. Which is kinda cool. Anyway, I don't expect to win seeing as the trend is coughblackpeoplecough, but getting close wouldn't be bad. I'm an attention whore and so seeing my name somewhere is kinda cool. So go ahead and vote for me if you love me :D

I can't really think of anything else I want to talk about right now, so I'll try and hit you guys up later this week. My mom left for vacation on Friday so I'll be roaming the town this week, most likely.

With like-like,

Marcus ♥

Headaches - Day 21

As the title suggests, I have a headache. Today I've eaten cereal, bananas, grillquitos, and pizza. I'm tired. I want things to work.

My mom is leaving on Friday and my brother might be a butt and stay home. Which not only means I don't get the house to myself like I wanted, but I have to get him fucking dinner and breakfast and shit.

I've been watching YouTube videos all day. And it makes me realize my sad work ethic.

I can't think of anything else to say except I wish I had a giant internet following.

Sleepy,

Marcus ♥

Ounces - Day 20

YAY! :D

We've reached the big 2-0, people. I'd like to start off by thanking you guys for all the support I've gotten with this bloggy thing. Makes me feel like someone cares sometimes.

Anyway, sorry about the lack of updates as of late, as you may or may not know, I was in Carthage for debate this past weekend. For those of you curious I went 3-1 and missed cut because I had two opponents who went 0-4. Which sucks because debate tournament structure is fucked up and it should be more like Pokemon tournament structure because that makes an infinite more amount of sense.

I also didn't have to do an oratory because Mr. Tuckness sucks at managing things and so ten or so people ended up being out of an IE. I'm not gonna lie, the first time I wrote that last sentence I wrote "sucks at mangina" and I'm not really sure what that says about me and my subconscious.

Lately I've been trying to focus things on individual days. I'm going to try and do some stuff that will hopefully make my day go better. Firstly, though, I'd like to explain my rationale for this kind of thinking. Many successful people have the same mentality that I've kind of discussed a little bit before, and that's about positive thinking and how the universe will line up with what you want if you constantly surround yourself with this thing. I was listening to some inspirational Will Smith (as I frequently do), and he has this same mentality. He did add one interesting thing that I like, however. He explains how you shouldn't go out and say "I'm going to build a wall, and it's going to be the greatest wall ever." which is what many people do. He says you should go out, lay a brick and try and lay that brick as perfect as possible. And eventually, you will have your wall, and it will be better than it could have ever been. This kind of leads me to want to follow a more day-to-day kind of lifestyle because it makes each day feel like it matters. The first idea I have off the top of my head is to make a goal each and every day. Just one goal, and not a big one either. Maybe something general, maybe something more specific. But I feel like this kind of a thing will help make days a little more accomplished feeling.

Anyway, I'm feeling social recently, moreso than usual, and so you guys shouldn't be afraid to hit me up wherever you may see me.

That's all I really wanted to say tonight, I'll get back to you guys in a little bit though, so don't worry :]

Buddy Buddy,

Marcus ♥

Pokemon - Day 19

Snow days make me happy. I've been really happy today. I don't know why.

I still have no idea about anything as far as oratory goes, so I hope we don't have school tomorrow.

I don't really have a lot to talk about because today I'm content and lazy, so I'm gonna leave you guys some Pokemon pictures that make me laugh or happy.

Substance Pt. 2 - Day 18

Hey guys. Sorry I've been updating this non-consistently, but I've been not in the mood. I butchered that sentence but that's okay.

Today was my first day with my new schedule and boy, will my Tuesdays and Thursdays be filled with some excitement.

Math is the same, but now I have English and man is my class stupid. Before I was like "lolwut huckleberry finn" and everyone else was like "Jim and Huck are blah blah blah" and then I would make a comment on the underlying homoerotic theme of the book. But now when I'm like "what happened in the book?" people are like "lolwutbook".

Oh well, there are plenty of people to make fun of in that class. I'll lose some brain cells along the way though.

And then I had debate. So it was like, double the sleep.

Then I had Lib and Law. With the greatest group of people I could imagine. Also Mr. Shoemaker has a chin hole. It's just like a crater in his chin where all the stuff gathers. But that's okay, I don't judge that much. Lib and Law, more like, Lub without Flaw.

Yes, that was the best I could come up with.

Oh god, I'm going to debate this weekend and I need an Oratory. Something that I can just rant about for 8-10 mintues. Give me topic ideas! Anyone and everyone!

Also, I love Parli, because it's literally a debate you can do with no prep and just google it five minutes before and just win because the topics can get really one sided.

I might do my oratory on life graphs. Like how you can measure what you do with your life at the end of it and see if it was distributed like you wanted it. I made a pencil metaphor and everything. Well, the pencil metaphor is just that when a pencil is all spent up you can look at how you spent the lead. But sometimes things happen and you lose the pencil before it gets the chance to get used up. So don't use the pencil for stupid things because you may not have it for much longer.

Oh pencil, you so crazy.

/sigh

Obviously there are still people in this world who don't understand substance. And that's fine. They're going to go through their lives doing thing without substance and being completely fine muddling through things like a million others have before them. They're never going to do anything worth doing and eventually they'll die knowing they didn't do much, but they'll have some philosophy they saw in a movie and let it comfort them.

And as sad as that is, I don't give a fuck. People can do whatever they damn well please with their existence here on Earth. If they believe they're going somewhere else when they die and so they don't have to do shit here, that's fine. Let them do their nothing. But don't expect me to acknowledge your shit as something, and you better sure as damn hell fuck cunt bitch tits not expect me to conform to your way of life. I'm fine being me, and I'm gonna try and do shit. If you think I don't understand you, then that's a damn lie. I get it, you're lazy and never wanna do anything with your life, that's great. I get it. I don't want any part of it except telling you you're wrong. And don't get mad at me when suddenly your narrow minded viewpoint gets challenged and you might have to consider a new way of looking at things.

Gah, people make me angry sometimes. But I guess angry Marcus and good-writing Marcus are the same person a lot of the time.

Anyway, I'm gonna head off to bed here soon. Good night, Moon.

Oh, also, someone remind me tomorrow to talk about how girls are the most illogical race on the planet.

Your favorite ranter,

Marcus ♥

Bleh - Day 17

I've been at Sam's house for a year or so. So I don't have a lot to talk about. Also, T-shirts probably aren't going to happen because I'm lazy and nobody wants them. So fuck you guysssssssss.

I'm tired and not in the mood to rant because nobody listens.

Maybe I need to make this non-daily because then people will actually read it or something.

Into the Future,

Marcus ♥

The Holo Magikarp - Day 16

So you'll never guess what happened today. I went to Professor Oak and the first thing he says is "Are you a boy or a girl?" And I'm like "wtf, I'm a guy" and he's like "Oh yes, of course. What's my grandson's name?" And I'm like "idk, bro he's your poophead grandson" and he's like "Ah yes, his name is POOPHEAD" and I'm like "No need to yell, man."

Anyway, I picked Charmander and Poophead picked a Squirtle because he's a fucking dick.

Sometimes being a Pokemon trainer is hard. But it's okay, because I have this blog to keep me in the game, y'know?

Anyway, I need to go to that Pewter City Gym thing now, so I'll seeya guys later.

Pokemon Trainer,

Marcus ♥
