Okay it's Monday Morning, you're trying to rush down to the bus stop early so you won't miss your school bus. You quickly made you bed, or leave you bed unmade. You brush your teeth quickly or not. You either did eat breakfast quickly or you did not. And you left early to catch down the bus.

Either you want to be first or you just want to be early is the question.

If you want to be first, pick an earliest time than your normal bus time. Go ahead beat everybody to the finish line. You're up early, taking your morning routine seriously, ready to be the first man in line for the bus before everybody else.

The Slacker Syndrome: Reasons Why You Can't Rush Down To The Bus Stop If You're a Slacker

Okay *nodding my head* I can see your routine. Your routine is get slack in the morning, leave your breath stink and head down to the bus stop, don't care if you look nice enough.

Okay let me tell you reasons why you can't rush down to your school bus.

The Slacker Syndrome: First Questions Might Be Answered

Okay you're a teenage boy. This is a day in the life for you

In the morning you woke up, didn't made your bed, throw your clothes on your unmade bed to find the right one to wear, brush your teeth a little, eat breakfast and rush through the door.

Now here's the question: Did you do it as always?

Welcome to The Slacker Syndrome

If your bed wasn't made for less than a month, than you're a slacker.
If you didn't hang up the clothes every day, then you're a slacker.
If you wait until the last minute to do your homework, then you're a slacker.

You know what I'm not going to say you're a slacker. I'm just gonna called you a loser.

Welcome to The Slacker Syndrome, where I would talk about how you - if you're a male -get diagnosis with the slacker symptom (well not really since I'm telling you guys to...you know what I'm gonna shut up; you not diagnosis at all unless you have a real cancer).

My First Day of Spring Semester at Montgomery College

PLEASE NOTE: I will turn my attention to blog for boys tomorrow. Today's post is still about my life.

So this is the first day of Spring Semester at Montgomery College. I have a Television Production class, something that I have to attended because...it seems to assume that TV Production is the career that I'm looking to, which I'm actually not. But I have to take it anyway because...well I would have to say it's interesting. Well after a nice class introduction and incidents that we heard that we're going to avoid (like leaving food in the studio when you're not supposed to and waiting about an half-hour for the other people to show up), I think...it's gonna be rough. It's gonna be rough. But we'll make it...hopefully.

The Future of My Website - I Might Turn This 'Blog' For Boys If I Would

Okay I have to be honest: I wasn't focusing on my website very well. I wasn't productive. I wasn't serious. In fact, I wasn't enjoying it.

Remember the post that I written, it was supposed to be a site for boys and the next two posts was the beginning of it. Well actually, this site started out as a personal site just like other popular people have. Apparently, the site dwell into my life instead. I talk about why I got a sinus infection, what I got for Christmas, what I eat at lunch, among other things.

Before I purchase this domain, I wasn't into the website world anymore as I was on much of the 2000s, but rather in the writing world, where I was writing stories (which emerged and then unfinished) that are either trying to be different from the teenage genre or include action-oriented elements in it. And as a result, most of my website have been involved with my life. To be honest, I wasn't interesting in blogging. I'm not creating a blog, I'm creating a website. But since I don't have the money to invest, my website is powered by Google's Blogger site instead.

My Frustrating and Complicated Experience with Fixing the Repair Error (Part 2)

Okay, now for part 2. If you missed part 1, well click here.

As I said, my McAfee subscription has expired. Now my McAfee subscription expired less than a week before Christmas. I was pressured into renewing it that I even almost order it (that transaction obviously didn't get through, even though my billing information is correct). Then it said that McAfee will continue to protect my laptop after my subscription expired....until about January 12 or January 11. Really McAfee, do I HAVE to pay a high price of it? It's a risky situation.

In other ways, I did download the Windows 8 install setup, but here's a problem: you have to put in a product key, which I CAN'T FIND! There was no sticker on the back of my laptop, so I have to find more help online. The answer is this: You can't really find your product key, it's injected into the laptop. WOW WOW WOWWY! So I try to find a product key through product key finder programs with no success.

My Frustrating and Complicated Experience with Fixing the Repair Error (Part 1)

I would take like a minute to blog the following, okay.

Less than two weeks ago, I was going to do a system restore. But then, it was unsuccessful. I tried to do it again, but it still no results. I did tried fixing the system volumes, but it obviously doesn't work; It only works when you have a system volume error. I had a different error instead as it doesn't involve with volumes. It involves with data corruption.

The next thing is that I tried to do a windows diagnosis test, like what the Microsoft help forum said. And despite having a system restore error, the Windows Diagnosis Test said that my laptop doesn't have an errors. So I tried to do a system restore again...several times; It still having the same error. I tried Disk Checking Error and that said it doesn't have any errors.

But despite all of that, as I trying several ways to restore, I still found that the system can't restore and, in fact, would not restore at all. First of all, I didn't think it would have been a very frustration and complicated experience...if the Dell Drivers and Utilities CD, which I apparently only have since there's believed to be no operating system installation disc that came with it at the time, contain the entire reinstallation of the laptop. Nope, it was about: what it says on the disc. Only drivers and utilities. Nothing else. There was no option to reinstall the C drive, which the laptop uses.

Trying to contine the screenplay...just for fun

I do have to apologize that I have been very lazy at blogging for the past few days. I'm procrastinating and so on. I do have to tell you what's happening today.

I was supposed to continue writing a screenplay (just for fun) in a room while sitting down on a bed leaning on a backrest, but (once again) it seems uncomfortable for me to write while sitting down on a bed or leaning on a backrest. Also, writing on a laptop keyboard is much slower than on a computer keyboard.

Very Very LAZY POST

Okay I'm very busy right now that I can't blog right now, what about tomorrow, okay.

Currently writing a screenplay...just for fun

Originally, I planned to write a screenplay next week. But then last night, I figured that I would write a screenplay today. But then it's a holiday, so I would rather write tomorrow. However hours later, I decide to write it anyway to get ahead of tomorrow. As I'm writing this, I'm currently on a sixth page.

It's an action-oriented story...with very different elements. I'm writing this for fun and not for self-publishing it online. I'm sick and tired of watching very young male characters useless, romantic, dumb, or having a masculine stereotype.

VERY LAZY POST: Story Ideas Pop Up

Okay here's a thing I only have to say: I got story ideas popping up in my head when I was in Washington, D.C. tonight just like the last time.

Another Lazy Post: Uninteresting Tour

Okay I have nothing there to blog today...other than me being dragged by a family member to a tour of the Montgomery College Rockville campus because I haven't been there. Actually, my family member give me a tour. I was like...really? I thought we going to college for some meeting with a staff member, I didn't even know my family member....

*sighs* I usually don't blog deeper about my life but... Anyway I don't have anything else. So check beck tomorrow.

I decided to keep writing after all (Lazy Post)

Okay to be honest, I know I made my mind up a few times. It's about whether I should write in this kind of environment that I live in. First, I decided to write, but then procrastination takes up my time, and eventually yesterday I decided to take a hiatus.

But today after I started to think that I finally made a story idea in my idea, I decided to keep writing. I would write every day...for at least two hours without distractions.

I'm taking a hatius on writing, but not blogging...at least for now

Okay to be honest, I actually don't know what I'm doing. My new year's resolution was supposed to be writing every day. For the first fifteen days so far, I only write very very little. And I tired attempting to write longer, but it was no use. Apparently, in order for me to write this creatively-hard teenage boy story, I need to work in a place where it's a piece and quiet (which I don't have; I don't have a room of my own). I might have explain this already.

Apparently I'm about to go on a five-day-a-week grueling and bumpy ride (I'm going back to college Monday the 26th, this time five days a week as opposed to Tuesdays and Thursdays), which means there's going to be major schedule conflicts around schoolwork, classwork, and everything else that I'm interesting to do (such as writing) but failed so many times to do longer.

The EXTREMELY Lazy Post of All

Okay another lazy post, this time extremely lazy: I will come back tomorrow.

UPDATE 10:39PM ET: I was caught in too many things so I don't have time to write a post tonight.

Lazy Post: I'm writing another story instead of continuing of another...again

Author's Note: Okay this is what I now call lazy post, in which I only write a paragraph in which I don't have time to write longer. I'll no longer call them 'short post'.

Tomorrow, I will write another document, instead of continuing of another. (Here we go again!) This time will not be creatively hard and it will be a mystery story that will be focused on ten-year-old protagonists. More on that later.

My explanation about my life so far: I have been gone through not only procrastination, but also depression (I have to say this)

In the past several months since June 2014, I have written several documents throughout the remainder of the year. Some of which were written over, exactly, or almost thirty pages. Others went below that or lasted a few pages. Only one of which is larger, much, much larger. And that one went over two hundred pages (almost two hundred pages when you decrease the font size), the first time I went into that territory.

That is "The Carmine Case", an e-novel about a mystery around a sports trophy stolen and the mis-accusation around it due to a pretty much history of racism and sexism. Actually that last few words awarded to a duo of characters that I create, Danny and Felix, who mostly creates firestorms at school and outside of school.

Unfortunately, I lost time and energy on that e-novel as I gone through depression a few times (now I'm really saying this) and procrastination several times. And I'm still going through like every week. I can't write a lot. I can't focus a lot. (And now I'm about to lose my interest - and patience - again on another blog, which is this one you're reading) I wish I'm in a peace and quiet (and alone) environment. But no, I don't have that available.

What In The World Just Happened Last Night?

Okay yesterday, I written a post about the Paris attacks. I started promote the post through Google Plus and Twitter, by posting and tweeting three times using hashtags. And that's about it.

Then suddenly I came back this morning to find out that a few hundreds of visitors were from a different country. How unbelievable is that for me? Was it something that I written? There's only one sentence in that post I wrote that read this:

My opinion about the Paris terrorist attack

In my life, whenever there's breaking news going on, it happened on my home country, the United States of America. International news that doesn't relate to America, I believe...if I not mistaken, rarely given breaking news time...except for the Pope and the July 7th, 2005 attacks on London (the day after it was given the city for Olympics 2012).

Recently there have been international coverage that has nothing to do with America. Last year, we got Malaysia Airlines lost two planes. One got lost air control and slammed to the sea, the other got destroyed by an airstrike. We also have AirAisa airplane lost at the sea as well, but some people managed to get recovery...maybe. There also war between Israel and Gaza. And terrorist people kidnapping hundreds of girls in Nigeria. And pretty that's much about it.

In the past couple of days though, there is a shooting at the Charlie Hebdo building in Paris, France, which they called it a "terrorist attack". Now, there are other 'terrorist attacks' that involve shooting, but I wondered why shooting be considered as a terrorist attack? I always thought terrorist attack involves bombs, explosions, among other things. Why shooting also a terrorist attack? I think that shooting is concerned like a tragedy or a massacre, I don't think - to myself apparently - that shooting could also be a terrorist attack too, because terrorist attacks means destruction of something right?

Launching a sub-domain in this particular domain wouldn’t work at all

Last Monday, I was getting ready to launch a sub-domain. But after setting up a blog, I realize that there’s a problem: there is no way you can get a sub-domain from a domain that has been connected to a third-party blogging site.

At first I though it was easy.  You just put the same IP code into the sub-domain and you launch it through Blogger. But it turns out that it wasn't the case. Usually it takes under about five or six minutes to get a domain updated, but in this case of a sub-domain, it actually took longer than expected.

The Distribution Resurrection of “The Interview”

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE ARE NO EXTERNAL LINKS TO THIS POST, I DO APOLOGIZE.

Originally in my previous article about the Sony hack, I originally decided to take a break. However I decided to continue google it anyway. And as days pass by, Sony Pictures has finally found a distribution outlet for “The Interview”. Actually three of them: YouTube, XBOX Video, and Google Video as well as Kernel. Not only that, but Sony Pictures announce a limited theatrical distribution to small independent theaters including the Almao Drafthouse theater chain.

The movie, staring Seth Rogen and James Franco, has gross over $5 million at the box office as well as over $30 million online. And the distribution keeps going. Now “The Interview” is available on PlayStation store, iTunes, Amazon, as well as a cable and satellite services with video-on-demand providers.

Never mind, I will continue the blog after all

You know what I changed my mind. I will continue the site after all. I will write long text as possible every single day from now on...until I get tired of it.

I want to take a hatius from my website; You can visit me on Twitter and Tumblr

Apprently writing every single day and writing long text on the blog will not gonna be my new year's resolution. Apprently the only possible way you can attract people is by  following other social media acounts. As of right now, I got very very very few followers on Twitter after replying and retweeting and I want to keep going as well as uploading pictures of myself on those accounts and with that, I'm going to take a hatius on my website.

I may be back this summer or maybe this fall. But in the meantime you can follow me on Twitter and Tumblr.

A Thunderstorm...On The Very First Sunday of The Year? I know it's proabably Global Warming, but Really?

So today, I recently check out on the National Weather Service website to see today's conditions. And several days after the website stated that it's just going to be rain today, the Norman, VA office at the National Weather Service (who probably operate this local potion of the website) now tells that there could be 'possiblly' a thunderstorm 'between 1 and 4pm'.

You know I remember a bus driver assistant (when I was a freshman) said that "I don't trust the weatherman" since it's not supposed to be raining or he changes the daily weather again and again without a proper confimation.

Though I just don't the way they covering the weather (there are four different weather teams in four different local television stations in my Washington, D.C. area hometown; they all come up with different forecast when it comes to predicting rain, storm, and temperatures), to be fair the weather meteorologists can't always predict what's going to happen ahead of the weather, maybe even the meteorologist at the National Weather Service.

On the other side of the story, a thunderstorm...on the very first Sunday of the year? Is it Global Warming? Some people think it is at the time of the early 2010s.

Sorry for not posting yesterday and post this one VERY SHORT

Alright I do apologize for not only not posting yesterday but also posting very short tonight. I'm sorry, I was all tired and I was focus on what should I do on my YouTube channel. I'll be coming back tomorrow with a full post this time.

Happy New Year! I'm Gonna Change My Focus on YouTube for Now

Happy New Year! Sorry that I'm really late, but I'm going to talk about my first day of the new year. First of all, despite my new year's resolution, I started to realize that I may have to write less than what I originally planed because as of now I'm currently a slow writer.

Also I might change my focus on my YouTube channel for now; I'm currently writing a script for a new video that I'm going to post this Monday. It's about me attacking Hollywood. Yeah, I may going to attack Hollywood because I'm sick and tired of the portrayed of boys and young men - who are either good-looking or nerdy-looking - as dumb, stupid, and useless in television and movies.
