Farthest Ends: Chapter 1

HELLO!!! I shall be posting my novel. Chapter a day! (It's 50k words. total, not for this chapter alone. ^_^ Enjoy!!)

Soon to Post!

[Note, my grandma's computer keyboard is funny, some letters may be missing...]

Okay... so... I haven't done much on this blog, have I? Well, that shall change! I'll be posting my writing more often, and just stuff on the blog in general. Please enjoy!! [Posting will begin tody or something.]

London Travel Log

Over the family trip to London, my little sister took rediculously detailed notes. Guess what? They're all here! Each is typed directly as is, spelling and grammar mistakes untouched. A comment from me will be in italics.

DAY 1: Thursday - 9/15/2010
We've just arrived at London!
Eastern time: 4:35 AM
London time: 10:35 AM
Long plane ride, didn't get too much sleep.
Airplane food - NOT the best. (She even acknowledges that stuff as food!? =_=)
I see lots of puffy clouds.

[Westminister]
We are going to Abby (Abbey) Street [>_-]
11:46 AM
We are in car [cab] on our way to May Fair Hotel
12:46 PM
We are at Mayfair Hotel. It's so sleek and modern! Grabbin' a bite at a deli.
1:11 PM
We are having a bite at a cafe in the hotel, it is very modern, and business-like.
3:31
Finished Museum, heading to "The Eye". (The museum was actually Westminister Abbey. The Eye is the London Eye, by the way.)
4:15
Made it to the "Eye" my feet are KILLING ME... UHHH (She had no idea that foot killing wasn't even half of it. XD)

MORE TO COME!!!

Universal Orlando Florida Vacation!

My Advice:
Get the Express Pass. Since we stayed at a hotel, we had the Express Pass built into the price of our visit. However, if you are not staying at one of the on-property hotels... get the Express Pass anyway! It cuts all the lines into easy, less than 10 minute pieces! (Some rides, like Harry Potter, don't have Express lines.)
Don't even think about comparing the Universal Express Pass to the Disney FastPass. The FastPasses have a seperate line... but they tell you when to go to the ride and the times aren't distributed evenly. (My sister and great aunt got a FastPass... but there were so many 4:30 FastPasses that the lines were all of equal length!)


Top 3 Rides:

1) Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. The latest ride from Universal... with no disappointments! Great simulation... and it's a plus if you've seen all of the movies and read all of the books.

2) The Simpsons Ride. Finally! A ride that combines excellent simulation techs with good ol' Simpson humor!

3) The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman. More simulation... with a 3-D twist!

More to come...

Day 7: 2nd Most Awaited Element! The Pokewalker!

{ http://kaeruranawa.blogspot.com/ }
So one of the things I'm most excited for in the new game is... the Pokewalker! It's a pedometer... It's a pokemon extension... It's something that will actually make me do something! Here are the main features I'm waiting for:

You can level-up your pokemon!
By walking around in the real world, your pokemon gain experience points. Useful for leveling up a back up pokemon in case your main one just isn't enough.

You can find items!
Get 3 watts (1 watt per every 20 steps), and you can look for items in the pokewalker. Items differ among the course you're walking on.

You can get pokemon!
Get three watts and try your hand at capturing a pokemon!

I know the entry today wasn't very descriptive... but you'll be happy to know this: After the Most Awaited Element is done, I'm going to talk about my pokemon experiences on Monday! Yes, get a peek into my insane mind!

Day 6: 3rd Most Awaited Element: Legendary Pokemon!

{ http://kaeruranawa.blogspot.com/ }
Every Pokemon game always has its trademark legendary pokemon. Here's a list of pokemon you can find in HeartGold and SoulSilver:


The three legendary dog pokemon: Raikou, Suicune, and Entei. They roam around Johto randomly appearing to battle. Suicune, however, must be chased, but doesn't roam around the region.


Lugia is the trademark pokemon for SoulSilver, but can also be captured in HeartGold after the Elite Four is beaten.


Ho-Oh is the trademark pokemon for HeartGold. Like Lugia, it can be also be captured in SoulSilver, but after the Elite Four is beaten.


Articuno can be captured after obtaining 16 badges. One of the three legendary bird pokemon.


Zapdos can be captured after obtaining 16 badges. One of the three legendary bird pokemon.


Moltres can be captured after obtaining 16 badges. One of the three legendary bird pokemon.


Moltres can be captured after obtaining 16 badges.


Kyogre can only be captured if you have a Red Orb in HeartGold.


Groudon can only be captured if you have a Blue Orb in Soul Silver.


Rayquaza only appears after you have Kyogre and Groudon. This means you need to trade with SoulSilver or HeartGold depending on your version.
