Start of the Halloween decorating

So Crazy and I started to decorate for Halloween. Shortly after found out that there is a hornets's (multiple hornet one nest) in the bushes right by our door. So needless to say there was not much decorating today.

Birthday

So today is my birthday, I was able to cut down on amount of presents/celebration; like the evil being I am apparently. An acquaintance that I call "Sailor Moon", because he is really girly but I can't call him princess, I somehow got him to believe it was 20 days prior today, about two weeks ago. Princess didn't get me anything, since I am normal with her, so it's hard for her to buy anything. Crazy got me some things, apparently she got them before the fire...and I tried so hard to make sure she got me nothing. We went to Medieval Times again, since we didn't go on Princess's birthday, like we said we would last year...so I decided to mess with Crazy; since Crazy said to go out with a bang. Instead of me getting knighted for my birthday, I had Princess get knighted. While Crazy was not looking Princess and I were looking at the knives, daggers, and swords, and pointed out the $18 dagger that I actually liked. I sat next to a really interesting woman, she was a nice, and funny elderly woman, and loads of fun to sit next to. Our knight this time was the red and yellow one, so we were on the opposite side of last time, and in the middle; sadly, our knight did not win, or get many flowers, but our side did win (the blue knight), and the red knight from the other side did give Princess a flower. The piece of chicken was twice the size from last time; last time it was only the thigh, this time it was half of a chicken. Crazy forgot to give the waiter the birthday cake card, so we got no cake (poor Princess was looking forward to that). Medieval Times seemed pretty empty, I would say it was only half full, I was wondering if they might be having financial issues, but then I realized that today is a Sunday, and not many people go out on Sundays. I took a picture with our knight, and he signed my flag; I'm starting to think that maybe I should start a collection of flags signed by the knights.

I liked the game a lot at first, but than it just got out of hand on the whole "pay for this", "buy this", and over all money hungry....ads would pop up randomly. Now it's a lot better, the ads don't pop up as often, less pay for and buying madness, with the more of an ability to gain free gems.
Some of the charcters seem oddly familiar...though I could have swore I saw Harry Potter at some point...

Some candies transform the customers while others cause animation....The lemon pucker not only causes a transformation, but also has a slight animation at first. The game views blueberry burst as a trasformation candy, even though it is most like an animation candy.



From left to right the candies that cause the transformations:dark chocolate devil imp, pencil pops, lemon pucker, and smarty treats

 

AP European Notes

So I have finally got some time to type up all of my notes. I decided to start with my AP European History notes, since it had the smallest notebook I could start with before moving onto binders. As I was typing up the notes, and toward the end I finally noticed another reason I failed the exam, yet passed the class. The teacher only focused on the format and not the content, and essentially only 10-15 minutes to write an FRQ, hence why content didn't matter. All the practice FRQs were all for not, since we couldn't really practice...I can't really type up that part of the notebook, since there are so many incomplete things, with a terrible format...So I move onto the binder, and hopefully the notes make more sense.

Now You See Me

Description:
An FBI agent and an Interpol detective track a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances and reward their audiences with the money.
                                                    
The movie was great; I wanted to see this movie so badly for some time. The ending is pretty good, though it still leaves many questions. I like how they explained majority of all the illusions. The plot twist at the end was good.
