Swing Life Away - Rise Against

So, as most of you know, this is a really late post. I don't have a good excuse for that now. Sorry I have not commented on any of your blogs recently, but I've been very busy lately, especially yesterday. And I got braces on Monday and 3 spacers. And I'm going back this Monday to get what they simply refer to as a "Device" put on the top of my mouth. So yeah, that doesn't sound good to me. o_O And I've gotten a lot more music since last week:
The One Thing I Have Left - Hawk Nelson
Forever - Papa Roach [Clean]
Before I forget - Slipknot (From GH3)
The Metal - Tenacious D [Clean]
When You Were Young - The Killers (From GH3)
Boston - Augustana
Blink-182: Greatest Hits - blink-182 [Clean] (Album)
The Sufferer and the Witness - Rise Against [Clean] (Album)
Swing Life Away - Rise Against

Rise Against is like the most spiffiest band evah. =D But here's what happened on Wednesday.

Stephen didn't come again this week (Figures), and I got there a little before 7. The lesson was about How Do We Define Christians? I don't remember much about it though, sadly. And the game was just....messed up. lol Well, not the first game, but the second game. The first game was "Signs" again. It wasn't as much as last week though. And the second game was this: There were 2 long carrots that were given to 2 people (We're all in a circle). And then those people pass th carrots to other people (There's a person in the middle too) without the person in the middle knowing who has the carrot. And, get this, we were supposed to bite off a bit of the carrot and eat it every time...after about 20 different people have all touched it. I was spared though because of my braces. ^___^ But yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if nobody came next week because they're all sick. :P lol Well, I guess there isn't one anyway...never mind. But the reason I didn't post this Wednesday or Thursday (Or Friday) was because I went laser-tagging with our Youth Group last night. It was SPIFFEH. But yesterday was one of the busiest days in my life. :P Now, I hate every other Friday because I have a Science test. Yesterday was one of those weeks. From the time that I finished breakfast to the time I went to Basketball practice at 5, I had maybe only 1 break that was about 10 minutes long. Here are the tests I had yesterday: 2 French Tests, a Science Test, a History Test, a Vocabulary Test, and some other test. But I also had chores and stuff. So I barely finished lol. Then I had to leave Basketball practice 15 minutes earlier than it ended. Then I had forgotten my basketball there, so I really pushed being at the Church before they left, but I made it. And I had burned a CD with Rise Against, blink-182, Hawk Nelson, and several other bands on it. Then we stopped at McDonald's to get dinner on the way there. I got 2 burgers cause I was really hungry. Then Stephen and I (He had come too which was quite awesome) sat next to William and Brandon, who are kind of annoying in a short run, but we can tolerate them for short amounts of time lol. Then when I went to get my 2nd burger, Brandon put a bunch of fries in my drink. Which I didn't notice until after I took a sip. It didn't taste any different though. Then we headed toward the laser tag area. We got there and played some Arcade games first, then we played. I got a vest that was faulty. It took forever to actually shoot someone. So I had zero points at the end of that. And then I played some arcade games (Needless to say that first game put me in a bad mood). Stephen and I played a Motorcycle-ish game, and then another game of laser tag. This time it was teams. What was pretty funny is that at the end, our team had 3675 points. I scored 3300 of them. Stephen scored the other 375. lol I found an awesome place to crouch down and snipe people and a stationery target before being detected. I stayed there for most of them time lol. Next game was called "Vampire". One person had a red colored vest, and everyone else had green. The person in the red vest tried to shoot everyone else 5 times, which then made them turn red. At the end of the round, if everyone was red, the Vampire won. If there was a green left, he lost. The vampire won. :P Next time we played another team round which was awesome. There were four teams, and I finally got the hang of playing. Whenever I was near someone shooting them, I just had to jump up and down, or jerk left and right, and they wouldn't be able to shoot me. I got 11 people in a row this way. =D Then there was another break, and I found an arcade game that had a flaw. No matter what, you almost always got 30 tickets per token no matter what. Sometimes you even got in the hundreds. I can't really describe the game though. But I got 771 tickets from it for 10 bucks (44 tokens) lol. I got a laser pointer, Airheads extreme, a little plastic ninja dude, a little plastic thing that was supposed to be a small spaceship, a bouncy ball, and that's about it. Then we played another game which was a Free for All. It was funny, because even though it was an FFA, William, Brandon, and another kid and I all decided to have a truce. We all camped out in the same area and OWNED. Then I broke free of the truce and went somewhere else. But I still came in first with 6675 points. ^_^ (You get 100 points for shooting someone, 25 from shooting a stationery object, and lose 75 if you're shot) Then we played one final game, another game of vampire, where I was the vampire. My performance was rather pathetic. Then we all left to head back to Church at around 12 AM. Got back home and went to bed. Then I woke up today and had to go clothes shopping. But I got a spiffy jacket and shirt. Yay.

Go to where you can add elements and add HTML/javascript, then in the popup window just paste the cbox code... and it's pretty self explanatory from there.

OR if you want your template code entirely customizable (like it is here) go to the edit HTML page, or whatever it's called, and at the bottom there should be an option like "revert to original" or something like that... if you do, you can just put the cbox right into the template like you can here.

I have no clue if that helped. =

I'm not sure that that's what it's called for sure... it should be the first thing you see when you click on the template tab... or if it isn't it might be "customize" or something like that.

I'd log in and look except that I have my template set to the original way so I don't have that option. Darn it.
