The Paper Train Express

Yes, I stole the template for this off 'you-know-where.' [The place with the clovers] whaddayathink?

Firstly, no, universify is not actually a word. But I'm calling this project it, so deal with it. Now then, this project involves many little things being done towards a common goal. That goal is the one thing I've lack for over a decade: Organization. First off, I'm scanning through my old email accounts, taking whatever info/memories I want from it, then deleting them. I already did this with my first email account, for it was hacked. This will not only finally put me at one email address, since I have 5 (well 4 now, but still too goddamn many) emails and to try to maintain and watch them all to prevent hacking is just a plain pain in the ass. Plus I've been meaning to do this for awhile, but now I have the ambition. Secondly, Finishing off the cafechan coffee cup now, which was a coffee cup made of paper mache for a website I once owned. The website died though, but the cup remains. I had never gotten around to conjuring up the energy to finish it, until now, ...

I should get around to cleaning off my computer desk, But I am too lazy. Also this:

Click here to go watch it, via Newgrounds. A youtube version may also get made later. This now closes the Riccium Collection case, and thus proves that despite my endless laziness, I do get things done sometimes. Now on to other news, I actually got a video camera! I've been thinking of getting one since last year, but my mom was holding off til she could find a good enough deal. She got this one for 17 bucks, all accessories included, so I'd say she made a wise decision. Since I have a video camera, I'm also going to dip into trying to make real-time movies as opposed to all animations. That isn't to say that I won't also be making more animations, more so to say that expect more to come eventually. There has also been discussion of changing this blog to 'www.OBP.blogspot.com'. OBP stands for Olzow Bros Productions, named for Pj and I. Though if this were to be changed to that, I'd probably have Pj blogging here too, if he ever did. T'was just a di...

Riccium Collection is underway, almost all of it is complete, it just need to basically be put together. That to come later, because I just spent the last 3 hours working on it today. And now I'm hungreh. :P As for the whole Party-Star ordeal, I'm being a slowpoke about it. I'm not going to change the site name, I'm just going to confuse the heck out of anyone who visits. I'll leave the site title as Party Star. Also, I'm going to perhaps Introduce Riccy's new hairdo in another mini flash, to give reason of why I changed it. Everyone's out today busy with friends, and I'm stuck at home working on flash. T_T fml.

The Final day has arrived! Horray!! :P Final Assignment thing was handed in, CALM is now started and underway, still dunno what its about, but meh, I won't be mentioning it in any other posts anytime soon unless something interesting actually happens. Compared to the other days of this week, Today was pretty damn good. Though tuesday also was pretty good, despite failing that quiz so hard. Ah well. Anyway, This concludes Brutal Week! ...School sucks. :P

The penultimate of the rough week has come and not quite gone yet. What an ironic name for it though, figuring today is Earth day! :P Anyway, I Started CALM, seems like it will be interesting, dunno what to expect yet though. Had the Math Unit test, pain in the ass, but I finished it. I'll probably find out my terrible failing mark next week. I also have a damn unit assignment due tomorrow for math. sigh. I'm REALLY sick of Math. Also, My mom dragged me driving and she had me drive to the vidja store so she could return some movies. I was too tired to go in, so she went in and chatted for like 20 years. The owner and his son can't wait to see me next, so there goes my theory that they hated me. Ah well, lol. Finally, Watched all 3 of the Bourne Trilogy recently. I ♥ Matt Damon.

The middle day of Brutal Week has proven to be the most brutal thus far. Granted, on Melancholy Monday I had REALLY terrible luck, [Damn Bike locks] but today, the reality of how hard this week was going to be set in. Got second quiz in math back, 46%. [Epic Fail] Tomorrow's unit test will be the greatest fail ever done by me. [Brace for >40%] I also had to do an essay for L.A., and that actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. A bit challenging, but I didn't feel the usual 'Oh jeez I'm screwed' feeling that usually assists every in-class essay I do. Not to say that this essay wasn't a total fail, I'm sure I'll find out that depressing mark next week or something. [At least next week won't be as brutal as this one.] Finally, After the math quiz blow, I was in a crabby mood. Went to the vidja store, was too crappy to even be friendly with the vidja store owner or his son. I feel like a dick now, but at the time I was just real...

The Second Day of Brutal Week: Not so bad. :P Today was one of those days where nothing in particular was overly great, but nothing bad happened. Though LL bought me a Root beer, so you could call that overly great! :P However, I did do the Math Quiz. It was somewhat brutal, I didn't actually have enough time to finish the whole thing. However, I'm pretty confident I didn't fail this quiz, unlike the last one. Tomorrow's looking somewhat dark, Got an essay to write and crap, and I don't actually know if I have C.A.L.M. yet. Finally, I'd like to take this time to say: I would like to give the person who invented skirts a high-five.

This week kicked off brutally. First, I checked my bike lock when I was in the garage, worked fine. Got to school, couldn't get the Bike lock open.Uselessly tried for about 20 minutes, making myself look like a total tool who can't even open a little lock. I basically ended up leaving the thing and just went to class, with my bike unlocked. I was lucky enough to find it there at lunch. I rode my bike home, wasting my whole lunch hour and spare. My cousin was nice enough to lend me his lock since mine was broken. I rode back to school, got to class, which was math and, well, math is very boring. Then after, I went to unlock the now locked bike of mine, and wouldn't you know? The lock was also not working right. I had to fiddle with the lock til I finally eventually got it. Took another 10 minutes, but at least I didn't have class to go to. Now then, if you think I swear too much, you can go SCRATCH THAT, SPOILER CODES DONT WORK CORRECTLY ON THIS TEMPLATE EITH...

It's Coming Soon! ...not that that is really a good thing. The Week of brutality will be the toughest week of this semester. Math is on the hardest unit, with a quiz and a math unit test upcoming this week. Not to mention, Another Essay April 21st. The good news is , the next Brutal Week will be sometime in May, when I have my next Cumulative Exam, and in June, with the Exam Final. Now then, Since I will be having such a Brutal Week , I won't be working on The Riccium Collection . I will try my best to stick to the due date of April 30th though. I think This will help me get through the week. :P

First, I made a mini loop for my birthday, just to test out the new fonts: Riccy-17 Secondly, I went to sleep country and the saleman looked exactly like the janitor guy from Hot Tub Time Machine. I was thinking of asking if he had juggled chainsaws in the 80s, but I figured he hadn't seen the movie so I didn't ask. Finally, Interview thing tomorrow. Whoo.

The creativity ball is now rolling, and it's smashed the original Animanga-R idea to pieces. I may still come back to it, but I'm moving forward in ideas anyway. Life news: -School is boring -It snowed -Math is hard -Interview thing soon -Potatoes - I've been listening to a few songs by poison recently, as well as some anime remixes. also some jet set radio future -The Game Feel free to ask any questions about the whole Animanga-R redesign if you are curious.

It was insane. And not a single drop of alcohol was consumed, nor any drugs used. That is all I have to say about it.

Saturday I might be going bowling with my sister and L.L.. I dunno yet though. I also might be making a small flash to celebrate April 15th. I'm thinking of making a sweet rave party flash of all the Animanga-R characters. We'll see though. I have an interview thing for a class on Friday April 16th. I can already tell it will go bad. I'm not too worried about it though. I'm going to at least put some effort into my portfolio so it won't be terribad. I also finally got my new computer set up. And got all the March Meet photos online. After Firefox crashing about 7 times. Also I hafta still get a serial number for flash Cs4 or I won't be able to make flash otherwise. Well I could, and probably will, but that means I'll be downgrading flash. That could be a good thing, or a bad thing. I dunno. I'm out of root beer again. sigh.

I have over 9000 ideas about Animanga-R now. But none that I like. And the original idea was pretty cool, but I'm having my doubts about it too. Basically, I'm jsut in a stage where nothing I do will make me happy. So, I'm kinda stuck in limbo. I first tried to cut out Tino and Tim. Then I decided to give Animanga-R an interesting location: Winnipeg. However, as LL and I soon found out, Tino and Tim made it more interesting, and Winnipeg is hard to write about when you're not there. Soooooo, both those ideas flopped. I dunno what wacky idea I'll try next. Also, Flashes are being held up due to computer 'transisitoning'. [Let's call it that, it sounds nice. :) ] New flashes will perhaps start when my new computer is all finished, upgraded, has internet, etc. We'll see what happens. Anyone got any good ideas on how I could improve Animanga-R?

And oh boy, do I ever have a lot to say. So, Let's get started. First off, Lemme explain the last post that I wasn't supposed to make but I did. Basically, It was an April fools joke, however I later figured out every single thing there had a grain of truth to it. So I kinda failed at April fools. Sigh. Second up, March Meet! ...It's over. But! It was much fun! Pj checked out the Animanga-R book, he says its pretty good but to continue making comics instead of concentrating on, well basically, the one book I've written. [Because let's face it, the odds of someone publishing a comic written randomly over lunch hour by some teenage kid are about the same as getting smallpox: 0%.] Thirdly, My old computer I was using DIED ! So, I hooked up my new one, but now, I HAVE TO RE-DOWNLOAD EVERY DAMN MARCH MEET PHOTO AGAIN. Also it doesn't have internet yet, so there's another WONDERFUL delay. [Where ' WONDERFUL ' is sarcasm.] Sigh. Forthly, This machine I...

As once said: "All good things must come to an end." MM is ending; Which means 3 things: 1) PTE will be reopening next post, with an explanation about the one random post that was made. 2) Animanga-R has now been 'reviewed', and now there is more developement, creating and writing to be done. [A.k.a. Back to the drawing binder] 3) I'll be back in New City as of April 6th! Then I go back to School. sigh. As well, the next PTE post will also chatter about March Meet, and about whats to come for PTE and Animanga-R. Business as usual.

Well, it's FINALLY set! I got PJ to agree to make the Animanga-R movie with me! We're going to take his home camera, gather a few actors and make the Animanga-R comic come to life! It'll take a few days to make, and I'll probably have to cancel a few plans, but, well, SUCH IS LIFE FOR SUCH A GREAT THING! Production of the movie will start. I'm playing as Riccy , Pj as himself. We'll probably get L.L. in on it too, fly him out here. Dunno how, we'll figure it out though. Man this is so great I can't wait!!!!

Now, I know that PTE is supposed to closed until April 7th, but I have 3 VERY important service announcements in which I'd like to inform you, the reader (s) , of. Now then, First Announcement is, I have now finished making a youtube video of Animanga-R, in which was called the 'Secret project'. It's kinda random skits thrown together and such, and its pretty good I'd say. I decided to upload it tonight because I finally finished it here during March Meet. Anyway, Here's the Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HrSN7176XI Second Announcement: I must confess. I think I am in love. The girl I like likes the same things I like. She likes cats. I like cats. She lieks mudkipz. I liek mudkipz. She's insane. I'm insane. She's an evil plotting mastermind. I'm an evil plotting mastermind. [Well only on weekends.] Anyway, enough about how alike we are. The actual announcement is this: Snowfire, I love you. Third Announcement: I am now a member of...
