Christmas Shopping! (4/7/44)
(Incase you are wondering, the (4/7/44) means 4 days left of school, 7 days till christmas, and 44 days till my birthday!)
Ahh I have already spent $150 on christmas shopping! And I'm not done yet :(
Wrote another song, called Dennis the Owl. Showing it to John soon.
And another poem-ish kinda thing:
Am I a mere insect
Captivated by the flame?
No, I am not insane
So do not call me so
For it would be vain.
The truth is I am truly real,
As through this ordeal
I reflect upon the mess of this,
walking dark through an abyss
No light to guide me
there is no end
the tunnel goes on.

13 days
Today I got out early from school. In Gym I had a test and I think I did well, but I have to wait for my mark... Sub in English, Math was boring, German was easy.
Pretty boring day, homework all day now, and for the rest of the day.
And I've gotta shave!

Sick :(
So the last few days I've been home sick. It sucks. I've been stuck in this house and it's boring.
All I've been doing is playing guitar and piano, reading, and playing CoD2; along with talking to people on msn and phone.
I have read "All Quiet on the Western Front" which was a great book. I would recommend it to anyone. I'm just starting "The Screwtape Letters: A Devil's Diabolical Advice for the Capturing of a Human Heart". James said it was a good book, and no, it's not an emo book. It's by C.S. Lewis, who is a pretty respectable guy.
CoD2 has been fun, expecially after reading "All Quiet on the Western Front" which was a WW1 book.
Saturday our band is playing at GCF. It should be fun. It's our first show as a band. Were playing 3 songs, even though they only want us for 2 songs. Thursday we practice, and Saturday morning we practice, then move it all to the church. YAY! Should be fun...

So Right
Why do I grow old
yet the time doesnt pass me by?
and why can't I just die?
and as my problems seem to fight
the very thing I want
more than anything tonight,
to hold you here with me
so tight
Why am I so cold
yet the snow never falls from the sky?
but as my heart turns dry,
the unique shapes they come in sight
and as they shine to give
the darkest night new light,
I wonder how this could be
so right

On Saturday, John and I went out to look for a job for John. He has got 2 interviews this week already. Then after, we went to the church. John put out the chairs while I organised the cables and mic'd the drum kit! I also took a swing at tuning the kick drum, because it was horrible, and held together with tape.
Then after, we chilled around Poco, and it was awesome. SNOW EVERYWHERE! I had fun. We also ran into Chris, Nick, Maycee, Joss, and abunch of M.R. people that were going to the Ninjaspy concert. Then we went to John's house and chilled with Joel.
Then last night we had a band practice. Jono couldn't make it because he was snowed in and lives so far away. But we worked on some songs, and talked about the band, joked around, and went to McDonalds. "SPRINGTIME!"

PS3 and speech
Today, after school, I went to a friends house and guess what: I tryed out the PS3! It was amazing, but I didn't like the game he had. It was just like every other hack/slash game but with great graphics. I cant wait for killzone though. It should be great!
Also, they are filming AVP2 in PoCo. That's right! Alien vs. Preditor 2, in Port Coquitlam! Such a big movie in such a small place. Good job PoCo.
Oh I did my speech today, did well, and wasn't to nervous. I screwed up a few times, but I was perfect in the time limit. My downfall was my "distracting hand movments" because I raised my hands to about chest level once. But all the speech writing was amazing. Half a mark off of perfect for the acuall speech, so if a pro would have presented it, I would have got perfect on all aspects!
And hmmm... what else... there was more... I just dont remember... stupid memory.

Don't Laugh
This whole week I've been working, and working on my specch to improve it. My teacher was yet again sick on friday, so monday or tuesday will be speech day!
I got more phone minutes too! But don't abuse my phone or I'll just screen your calls... LOL JKJK...
Wow I had a very... tired weekend. The usual hanging with John and/or Chris most of the time. John on friday after work till about 3pm saturday, then Saturday till now I hung out with Chris.
Me and Chris started this contest to see who cannot laugh the longest, where when we are together, we can't laugh (because we can't film when we are away to see if we laugh). Also, we can't use physical aid in making the person laugh (no tickling). So we have been doing this since 3am last night, then we came to church today and continued it. And so far we havn't made each other laugh, dispite constant trying and jokes, even almost making ourselves laugh.
So today in church we stopped for a bit and started again but with John, and he laughed at me saying OK in a weird voice even only after 5 minutes of the contest, and was out so now its back to me and Chris.
On a more... shocking note, Chris went for a jump onto the back of his mom's car, and broke the rear windsheild. Now he has to take the $300 from selling his X-Box and buy a new one. Doesn't look like he'll be getting that guitar any time soon...

The weekend
Sorry for the past weekend. Like I said before, I have a speech due tomorrow that is worth 20% of my english 11 mark. If I don't finish it, I fail.
Other than that though, I JUST FINISHED MY SPEECH! I'll be presenting it tomorrow, wednesday, or thursday, depending on random selection in the class. Hope it goes well! After I say it, I'll post it on here (for counter-argument speech reasons. I dont want someone oppsoing my speech to be able to knock down everything I say.
Anyways, I had a fun weekend with Chris, John, and Joel. Friday me and Chris rented MI:3 and watched it, but not before wandering Coquitlam aimlessly. Then saturday, me and Chris chilled and played San Andreas, and I dont remember the rest of that day. Then sunday me, John, Joel, and Chris chilled out, walked around Port Coquitlam at 12am, and played San Andreas, and music. Then monday they all went home.
Oh and sunday night we also started on another movie idea.... More to come as this story develops...

Musician!
YAY! I went to Long & McQuade last night to rent a guitar, and great news: They had the exact same one I rented last time! Not just the same model or brand, but the exact same, with all those scraches and nics in it! It's a great guitar. I think I might buy it or a new one like it. It's sooo awesome!
Anyways, I realised why the musicians life is perfect for me. First off, I love music and I love playing music. Duh. But also, I have been stuck in Port Coquitlam my whole life, so I'm dying to travel. I want to go everywhere, and touring is going everywhere.
Farthest north=somewhere in bc
Farthest west=vancouver island
Farthest east=saskatuan
Farthest south=seatle
Not the most traveling in my life... But I'm gunna travel alot when I'm older...
CANT WAIT!

Speeeech
Argh I have a speech due friday worth my whole english 11 grade pretty much. Sorry I cant write much the next few days, but I'll try to in my spare time.
Youth is canceled this weekend.
I learn something new about myself everyday. I realised how glad I am that Joss didn't go out with me when I wanted her to awhile back. Nothing against her, infact it wouldn't have been bad if she did, but it's better this way. Now we have an awesome friendship and I can tell her anything. Honesty is amazing.

Brother turned 19!
Hey everyone!
Last night my brother turned 19 so I was to 'busy' to update... We had a good time... messed up Street Figher 2 and UMK3... James couldn't do any combos because of his... dizzyness. Played some poker, some SNES, some guitar, the usual...
Oh Christian, Taylor, and myself filmed an amazing Dance party commercial last night too!
And the night before, me and Christian filmed a commerical against Crystal Meth. So I suggest anyone that does drugs, is from Surry, or just wants a good laugh to watch it.
That is on my personal YouTube account, not Victim Productions.

Flash 8
Well, great news!
My friend said he could get me Flash 8, well all of studio 8, for free. That was great news.
But I couldn't wait so I "borrowed" someones CD key and yay! I have Flash 8! Works like magic! Just don't tell Adobe where I live.
So now all I need is an idea...
----------
I had a really lazy day today. I didn't work, I didn't do anything really. Mostly spent playing music, getting Flash 8, and going to John's house to get my stuff. He is away to a confrence by the way. But he will be back on Friday.

New Movie!
I gave up on this video editing with flash mx 6. It wasn't designed for that. I need Flash 8 or at least Flash 7, but 8 will cost atleast $400 US... maybe more...
But I still got the movie done, just less good and more crappily. Crappy effects and bad overlays, these could all be fixed with Flash 8, and maybe 7, if I simply knew a rich producor that could afford $400.
Here it is! "Victor Bidwell's Guitar Method Commercial":
Comment on it here, and at Youtube.com if you can. And don't forget to tell your friends about our youtube page at http://www.youtube.com/VicTimProductions
UPDATE:
Flash just changed from $999US to $699US! And the upgrade has gone from $399US to $299US! Maybe I can buy the upgrade... or maybe they are releasing flash 9 soon...
