Eleven years ago yesterday, a major terrorist attack struck the World Trade Center twin towers and Pentagon (with a fourth plane plunged down in Pennsylvania by passengers who weren't willing to give up a fight and let more people be killed). Once the attacks were over, nearly 3,000 innocent people were murdered. Tens of thousands of people mourned, a whole nation went into pain, and a whole world prayed for the U.S., which is considered to be the focal point of the globe. Normally, the U.S. doe
I know I said I won't make a post, but I don't want to make a habit of not doing entries, just because I'm tired. Really, that's code for lazy. So I'm going to try and make another entry today. I hope it's up to par with my other ones.
I have to say, I agree with this point. While school is an economic venture, it shouldn't affect how we teach and what we teach. I abhor when we cut certain aspects of our education, simply because it's not "economically viable". Now, I understand where t
Before you read this just know I’m not some “emo” kid who is down on his luck, I have a pretty good life that I don’t take at all for granted.
Today was a pretty average day, I was in a fairly decent mood until class let out and I was waiting at the bus stop. All of a sudden my mood completely soured and I felt a total disconnect with people in general. It was kind of crazy considering how random it was. Right now I feel like I can’t really identify with anyone where I live. I have one good
The wretched pillocks who work at the ACT HQ neglected to inform me of my ACT scores. I have no idea what they are, but I must have done pretty well, seeing as how I've received upwards of ten letters from colleges. All of them have granted me premier applicant status. I'm kind of surprised by this, seeing as how I just bullshitted my way through the entire math section (For example: My rule of thumb when it comes to quizzes is "When in doubt go with B. If B was the answer to the last question,
As the title states I'm changing my life. I'm absolutely tired of being chubby. I have been for years, but have never felt the motivation to change myself. Well, when I workout and hear the music, it's me vs. me. No depressed feelings. Just me overpowering me. And I like it. I have gotten with friends, and have set up a workout group. Everyday at 7pm, I will be doing something that will help. My activity here might change a bit. But I want this.
So, he interwebs is being slow tonight, and I don’t know why. Makes me wanna smoke. I bucking hate technology. It never works. Crummy I guess, never imagined that my day would run so slow. No entry on the other blog yet, I don’t really feel all that up to it. Maybe tonight. Hey artsy types? You ever have those slumps that you aren’t able to do much in. Yeah. Those. I think I am in one. I haven’t been in one for a while, and I haven’t been able to in the last few days. Is this jumble of thoughts
Guilt. Every year, I get that same feeling.
Guilt that I shouldn't feel, but feel it anyway.
I was way too young to care when it happened. I found out about it much too many years later.
Life began to make sense. The rudeness, the misunderstanding, the plain ignorance I dealt with in others.
It never occurred to me that I shouldn't be blamed. But, nonetheless, they blamed me.
Sooner or later, I began to blame myself.
Childhoods go away quickly. Innocence dies with k
So, I've decided to Let's Play Pokemon Fire Red. I love Pokemon games due to the great replay value and variety. So yeah, it'll be update daily, if you wanna watch it.

Lately, I've been feeling different than I usually have, I'll try to explain it, so I feel as if pony related things aren't as exciting anymore, and also just haven't been posting as much as I used to (which some of you may understand) I realize that it may re-kindle when season 3 arrives, but these are my feelings right now.
But don't get me wrong, I still have an interest in ponies, it's not like I'm leaving or anything, this is just how I am feeling at the moment, but I think these feel
Hi brickwall~ Long time no... entry.
No I'm not ranting. Today I'll be sharing my new merch I bought uhh... last Wednesday~ ^ 3^
So basically me and my mom went to Toys r Us. Reason? Mainly I think my mom was trying to cheer me up and wanting us both out of the house for a small while. And it worked. I had fun. And I think she did, too.
So anyway, we both scouted Toys r Us top to bottom, searching for ponies. It was like a treasure hunt~!
We got a Pinkie Pie bubble blower, some s
Okay, first off I wanna tell you guys I've changed the name of my blog from "Nilkad Speaks" to "Nilkad Rants." This is for two reasons: 1) I suddenly had an epiphany and realized just how stuck-up and egotistical calling it "Nilkad Speaks" made me sound and 2) "Rants" is more accurate. Anyway, I now return you to your regular scheduled ranting.

Today, I decided that I should rant about something positive, because I'm feeling pretty overall positive today. So, I was wondering
Yeah! My group recently played our first live show. At the local art festival. Anywho here's the video.

you want to watch. Trust me. You want to watch the whole thing. It's entertaining and it's fascinating.
Since it's a fairly long video, I'll break it up into parts and address each of the parts individually. And then I'll put the parts in parts, cause this'll get too long otherwise.
See, the problem with schools is that fact that they utilize on type of intelligence. Academic intelligence. And they only focus on that. The arts focus on other aspects, but since it's
This is a poem I wrote in class less than an hour ago...we were supposed to use a poem by Thomas Lux as a guideline to help make someone fall in love with a word. My poem ended up...diverging from that intent a little bit. I was trying to make it about the word pansexuality, but instead it ended up turning into a mixture of pansexuality and genderqueer nature. I really liked the way it ended up, though, and while I couldn't read it in class due to feeling it was...too personal to share there, I
One of the things that annoys me the most is when a game reviewer lets personal bias get in the way of fairly assessing a game. A prime example of this is the episode youtuber JonTron dedicated to the game Starfox Adventure. Now, I thoroughly enjoy JonTron's videos generally, and feel that he is a very entertaining and talented youtuber. But, in this video, it was obvious that he set out with the purpose of making this game look bad. He completely focused on the worst aspects of the game, such a
As a young child, I've always loved the Mario Kart series, well, pretty much any Mario game for that matter, I'm a Nintendo kind of guy, and always will be!
Recently, I've been playing those classics, to relive my childhood, and it feels so good, I will never get sick of them, it's just impossible to do so, the early 3-D graphics of MK64 are just great, that feeling of going back in time, just amazing.
Double Dash is also a wonderful addition to the series, good times were had, and sti

We see Kenshin and Sanoske gambling in a back room, when Sano discovers that one of his friends was killed by some bad opium. Suddenly a woman comes barging into the room, exhausted, and begging for help. The men chasing her soon follow, claiming to be the bodyguards of some Kanryu Takeda, a shady businessman. Sano quickly disposes of the two. Out of nowhere a third a
I'm trying to stay within topics that relate directly to school, or my school experiences, but as the holidays are fast approaching (I know, I'm crying inside too), these kind of topics might dry up, so you should probably expect more of blogs related to gaming and such.
Well today, I got in trouble for wearing the wrong socks. Yes, you read that right. Socks.

What do socks even do? I mean, they're just socks. And they weren't even a different type of sock! I was just wearing a dif
Allow me to share my controversial views on this, even if you are attracted (I personally am not attracted to them.) to adult MLP Ponies, it wouldn't be bestiality (it be Xenophily, which is OK), since they aren't the same as animal Ponies of our world. For I believe as long as both species are sapient minded (Like MLP Ponies who have a society, culture, laws and infrastructure and whatever just like us Humans), doesn't matter how different they look and if they can give consent and consciously
So, never posted a blog before.

Alrighty!
Just wanted to write some ramblings about my day! So buckle in if you'd like to read about it!
The day started off with a trip to Tim Horton's to get a Coffee and Doughnut, it was a good time indeed, the doughnuts complimented the Coffee oh so well, (BTW, if you didn't know, Tim Horton's is pretty much like Dunkin' Donuts in the US of A, except better) anyways, that happened.
A few hours later I proceeded to go to the mall with my cousin, he was looking for some clothes,
