I sit beside the fire and think of all that I have seen, of meadow-flowers and butterflies In summers that have been; Of yellow leaves and gossamer in autumns that there were, with morning mist and silver sun and wind upon my hair. I sit beside the fire and think of how the world will be when winter comes without a spring that I shall ever see. For still there are so many things that I have never seen: in every wood in every spring there is a different green. I sit beside the fire and think of people long ago, and people who will see a world that I shall never know. But all the while I sit and think of times there were before, I listen for returning feet and voices at the door.

-J.R.R. Tolkien, from The Fellowship of the Ring

Back in the Flow of Things

Alright, Angie, I'm going to post... finally! *lol*
Well, school has been extremely fun so far. We have block schedule, so on my black days I have French 3, Theatre, Guitar, and Typing. Then on gold days I've got: ICP (it's Integrated Chemistry/Physics~it's science in the simple tongue!), then Geometry (ewwwww!), English 10, and Study Hall. My gold days are my 'hardest' (even though they aren't that hard so far) but then I've got study hall, so that'll give me some time to work on homework. I've got a bunch of friends in both my lunches (if you're interested, I've got D and C lunch), and I've really enjoyed my classes so far. English should be VERY interesting, because my teacher, Mr. Miller, used to be in the Marines, and their base was flooded with this gas that effected everybody differently. It made him have short-term memory loss! He's really nice, and extremely funny, but I know kids in my class are gonna do stuff and mess with him. I won't, but I'll get a kick out of watching everybody else!
So this weekend I've been with my nana (my grandma) and grandpa. I've had a blast... of course! On Saturday we went to a ladies' meeting from her church, and that was really cool. Then at 2 we went to a tea party, which was also really fun. Then today we went to church and now we're home, getting dinner ready. I don't know if we're gonna leave later or not ;) I think we're going to, because my nana is leaving for Haiti next Saturday for two weeks, and she's got to get some stuff to pack. I ask that you all pray for her, because she's going alone, and extremely nervous. I know she'll be fine - after all, we've got God on our side, which makes us, like, the best side ever! - but she's asking everyone she knows to please pray for her.
Well, I think I need to go. TTYL!

Have you ever tried your hand playing computer games? If not, then you've entered into the computer game world with this article! There are tons of games and anyone can find something they like. In order to help you out, the following article will feature some information on the best games of each gaming genre.

Although playing video games is a very fun hobby, it shouldn't be your whole life. Find other hobbies to participate in. Too much time spent on computer games can be unhealthy. You have to make sure you do other hobbies and activities too. Addiction to video games is a disease which affects many today.

Try to limit gaming to no more than a few hours per day maximum. There is no doubt that gaming is addictive, and this has become a real problem for many people. Try to stick to playing video games for only a few hours each day. If you're someone who plays long hours, then it's best to take plenty of breaks during the day.

One question modern gamers must ask themselves is whether they want to be a computer gamer or a ps3 gamer. Most games, these days, are available for either format so you need to find out which one is best for the type of games you want to play. Also, some games, such as flight simulators and real-time strategy games, are better suited to a specific type of hardware, so if you like a specific genre, plan your hardware purchases accordingly.

If you come across a difficult game that is causing you to feel frustrated, it is a good idea to put it aside for awhile and return to it later. If you're not playing particularly well, try switching to another game to avoid frustration. Avoid frustration as it can negate the positive aspects of gaming.

Research and understand the rating system used for video games. Some games are not meant for children, so consider this fact when shopping for games. Each game will have a specific rating ranging from Early Childhood (EC) to Adults Only (AO). Be sure to choose an appropriately-rated game, especially if it is a gift designed for someone else.

You can go to sleep when you are dead! This common myth is believed by gamers and is also propagated by online websites which claim to provide good gaming ideas . Completely false! A person needs a full 8 hours to keep their body healthy.

Saving is important, even in auto-save games. Until you feel that you understand how the game works, this is the best option. Refrain from overwriting your games too often, as this can have its disadvantages. Having more than one save allows you to rewind without starting over.

The PS2 is 12 years old and kind of outdated, but the one thing it has going for it is that it is very cheap. The games for this system are about half the prices of Xbox and PS3 games. There are also many more games available.

Try playing video games as a way to bond with your children. Gaming together is a fun and inexpensive way to get in some family time. It can also allow you to ensure that your kids aren't playing inappropriate games.

Figure out how to operate the safety and parental controls of any gaming system that comes into your home. You can likely make adjustments that keep kids from viewing mature content. Some allow each gaming profile to be customized separately, allowing adults to enjoy games not meant for younger audiences.

Kicking back and relaxing with your favorite video game is a great way to relax and have fun, but they offer so much more above and beyond the fun factor. What you've read here will ensure your gaming time is well spent.

The chase music briefly returns, but the track ends on a
quiet yet ominous note as Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi encounters Darth
Vader near Docking Bay 327. Although Kenner - which was later absorbed
by its archrival Hasbro Toys - did release other versions of Luke Skywalker that coincided with each new Episode
in the Classic Trilogy, it never seriously revamped its
A New Hope Luke figures much; at the tail end of its 1978-85 collections, the toy maker issued a hard to find Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper
Disguise, but kids and adult collectors who wanted a "Tatooine Luke" figure with a better lightsaber, more accurate clothing details, and
other extras would have to wait until the mid-1990s to find it.
Leia was a princess, but royalty wasn't treated with much reverence in the original films.
