Well, I'm going to leave for the ER again. The new medicine that my doctor tried to put me on hasn't helped so much and I've been in pain for the past two weeks. My heart has been hardening for the past few months, and it's putting out more adrenaline to keep itself pumping. This time, I'm probably going to be admitted to the actual hospital (what my doctor told me). If I'm in the hospital, I'll be put higher on the heart transplant list, but I'm still not to sure if it's going to happen any time soon. When I went to the ER, there was no wifi but I'm not sure if that's the case for the main hospital (the hospital isn't just one building) so I'm not sure if I'm going to be back on for a while. When they keep me, it's going to be for a long time. This isn't a thread for the Departure Lobby, because, partly, I don't know if where I'm going to be has wifi or not. If it does, then I'll be back on this place, keeping you guys updated. If it doesn't, well, that's just tough luck for me then. It's more of an update for my friends who are on here who have stuck by me thus far. I would like to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for the well wishes, prayers, and laughs. (I'll keep updating on my twitter account. I couldn't retrieve my password for my original one, so I created a new one. @joseluissolo)
To recap, I have heart problems and have recently moved from my home town to LA so I can get a good, heart transplant. Lately, I haven't been able to talk to many of my friends, and in their silence, I have finally figured out who were my "real friends" and who were only friends with me because they felt sorry for me. I want to actually delete certain people on Facebook, but some stupid sense of belonging has kept me from doing that. My own family is screwed up.We're still waiting for my youngest brother to get here, but I don't want him to go through all of this. My dad keeps pushing my mom's buttons! He now has a tattoo of his girlfriend's [my parents are still married] name on his chest and has no intentions of getting it off of him. He acts like he is above the rules because I need him because that's where I get my medical expenses paid. I want nothing to do with his girlfriend though. She's a drug dealer, has kids who cannot pass Kindergarten, and plain out disrespects my mother. It seems like he completely forgot why we had to move in the first place. Monday night, I had to go to the Emergency Room. My chest has been hurting non-stop, and I have been sweating like crazy. It could be freezing temperatures, people are shivering, and I can be sweating like I just worked out (and all I have been doing is sitting down). For those of you who remember what happened to me this passed Thanksgiving, it's a lot like that. I wasn't admitted, but one of the doctors said that because my heart is hardening, my body is producing more adrenaline so it can work properly. That's suppose to explain the pain and the sweating, but if that is what is happening, then I'm going to be in pain until I get the transplant, which is I-don't-know how long. I have an appointment on Thursday, so I have to just take it from there. By the way, my dad didn't even check in on me during that night I was lying in pain at the ER. Lately, I've been feeling the urge to run away from home. I know that it's a dumb thing for me to consider. My parents fight non-stop and I'm sick of it! My mom's sometimes the one that starts all of it, but it's usually my dad not wanting to be with the family or criticizing us. I feel like I'm the cause for all of this mess, so I should just leave. The only good thing I can think of is Twilight_Nobody13. She's stuck by me through this from the very beginning. I know that she gets scared when I talk about my medical stuff, but she is still there for me at the end of the day. Lately though, I've been down about myself. I'm short, weigh 142 lbs., and have a slight gut. I know I don't care what people think about me, but I care about what she thinks about me. I'm not attractive, and I know that TN13 looks passed how someone looks, but I think that I should at least look better for her. Still, she is my light at the end of this tunnel and I am glad that I am with her. I guess you guys can say that I am overwhelmed with everything that is going on. Any and all advice would be very helpful. I hate keeping stuff in...
Kingdom Hearts: Striking Midnight Both I and Twilight_Nobody13 will be owners of this RP. If anyone has questions or concerns, please contact either of us either through a VM or a PM. Thank you. STORY Prologue One: The young woman was relieved that the hooded man came to her aid just in time. For the past few yards, she was being chased by a pack of creatures that were unknown to her. She was frail, and tripped upon a broken crack in the pavement. Right when she thought that it would be the end for her, He came to her aid. With one, mighty swipe of his oddly shaped sword, the creatures seemed to magically disappear. “T-thank you,†The young woman told the man as she attempted to stand. The man turned, but she could not see his face under the dark cloak. He raised his arm, putting his weapon right next to the woman’s head. She couldn’t understand what was happening. Was this truly her day to die? “Your name,†The man demanded. A pair of yellow orb appeared where his eyes should have been. “Ali,†The girl responded, her voice quivering. The man lowered his blade, placing it length-wise, and parallel from the woman’s chest. “Take it,†He demanded again from her. Not wanting to make the man angry, Ali took the weapon out of his hand. She could feel a strange power coming from the sword. The man appeared to be waiting for something to happen. Half a minute passed when he finally said “It’s called a Keyblade, and it has chosen youâ€. Before she could say anything, The man took what he called a "Keyblade" from the girl. Three seconds passed, and another sword appeared in the girl’s grasped. This one was much different; a yellow hilt with an end that looked like a King’s crown. The man smiled, almost laughing, as he seemed to find himself a new project. Prologue Two: Three years have passed since the fall of Xemnas, the Nobody to Xehanort. The Nobody was said to be slain by two young boys, who both could use the power of the Keyblade: a weapon whose power comes from the wielder’s own hearts. More than a year before, Sora had slain Xehanort, who had become what is known as a Heartless. Since both the Nobody and the Heartless were sent into the Darkness, they became whole, but were not as powerful. Master Yen Sid, an old magician and retired Keyblade Master, along with his prodigy, King Mickey, decided that it was best to train the two boys into becoming Keyblade Masters. Both were quickly able to receive their status as Masters of the Keyblade, and to train for the revenge of Xehanort. Both Yen Sid and Mickey knew that Xehanort would be weak, and he wouldn’t do anything to make himself known. They could only wait for the enemy’s first attack, and hope that it could all end as quickly as it would begin. In that time, Mickey looked over the Secret Ansem Reports. Some of the passages mentioned a “Castle Oblivionâ€, where once was a place where Masters were truly born. He remembered the three brave Masters that fought with him when Xehanort first tired to create Kingdom Hearts, and have long believed that they had passed on in that battle. The events inside the journal had changed his perspective: They were alive, and they needed to be found! Masters Sora and Riku returned to their homes on Destiny Island, alongside their childhood friend, Kairi. While Kairi had the privilege to become a Master, no one found it right to put a Princess of Heart in the line of battle, and risk ending her life. Secretly, Master Sora had begun training her as well, to prepare her for anything. Ever since he did become a Master, Sora had been experiencing vision of another Him. Kairi had also been experiencing this, dreaming of things that felt so real. Neither one said anything about it to anyone, believing they were only dreams and nothing more. The most emotional vision was one where a boy and a girl, in dark cloaks, eating ice cream on a clock tower one final time. The balances of the world were changing now. The Heartless have grown in strength and in numbers! In an attempt to keep the balance, more Keyblade wielders have received their Keyblade. However, not all Wielders are pure of heart. A hooded man who goes by “Master X†and his companion Ali have been recruiting members to engulf the world in Darkness, and to finally bring forth Kingdom Hearts! Rules: 1.

This is my PotS entry, the theme being never-ending. It took me a while to come up with a decent concept and even longer to actually put down the story. I find it much easier to literally write down the story first, and then type it up when it is all done. Not much to say about this story, besides being inspired by my new favorite song I Will Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab for Cutie. Enough rambling, here's the story. :) Heaven by Tummer The one thing that was on Michael’s mind was his crimson haired bride, Michelle. The world that he was in had offered him no such peace, so he had decided to create his own. Literally, there was absolutely nothing in this world that he resided. The only thing for miles was a pure, empty darkness. The darkness that surrounded him was like a prison. He had lived in the human world long before entering this one. His life before even knowing Michelle was much like the world that he was currently in: cold and empty. For a long time, Michael was missing a vital part of human existence: love. Michael grew up an orphan, his mother giving him up at birth; but he had learned quickly how to appear normal and “all together”. It wasn’t until he left for college that he finally found what he believed was love and truly started living. Michal had been wandering this empty realm for what felt like years, maybe even decades. There was no way for him to track his time in this place. It was the perfect kind of Hell for anyone who truly knew what it meant to feel. Michael never felt upset or depressed in this world, but there was also nothing that could make him the least bit happy or upset. It was a complete separation from emotion; it was almost like he never really existed. The void seemed to be ever expanding around the young man, having no absolute walls or boundaries. Michael had no idea how he even entered this endless void in the first place. One of the strange things about this world was that Michael seemed to have never aged a day; and he had not felt any physical or hunger pains. Fatigue and exhaustion were also non-existent for him in this place. Michael had never stopped walking since he entered this place, not once, and yet nothing seemed to affect him. All of his needs were being sustained, which easily became a frightening thought for him. The biggest mystery, Michael believed, was finding out exactly how he ended up in this kind of world. Endlessly, Michael had tried to remember what happened on his last day on Earth, thoughtlessly trying to figure out what had happened to him. He could remember that it was a Saturday; the weather was nice and he had just awoken with Michelle sleeping on his chest. The next thing he could remember was waking up in this dark place, scared beyond his wits. Maybe that thought of holding her wasn’t bad for a “final memory”; it had given him the needed drive to continue on and find an exit. “Huh,” Michael gasped. For the first time, since he had entered the darkness, Michael had not only stopped, but was able to smell something. It was faint, but he could clearly feel his nose hairs burning due to the odor. It was a humorous idea; this very scent was one that he was used to, but now he found it absolutely repulsive. It didn’t take Michael even a second for him to figure out the surprising smell. He smelled beach water! Even before entering the dark world, it had been awhile since Michael had been to a beach. He grew up next to a coast line but the college he attended was in the middle of the country. In the end, that much didn’t seem matter to him; the simple experience of just smelling something from the outside world was overwhelming. As Michael continued to walk, he was introduced to another surprise. Under his bare feet, Michael could feel the sting of black road gravel. Everything seemed to be slowly making sense in Michael’s mind. Almost instantly, everything seemed to be clicking together, and he started remember more and more. He and Michelle were still on their honeymoon on the day that he was stolen from Earth. He had promised Michelle that he would take her by the beach, the one that he would always visit after school when he was younger. As Michael kept his feet on the road, he could see a light signaling him in the distance. He hoped that as closer he got to the light, maybe he could remember more about how he got here. However, as the light grew brighter and grander, there was nothing else that he could remember. In an instant, the light had engulfed him, blinding him. There was a loud bang that proceeded afterwards. The light had dimmed as quickly as it erupted. Michael was now standing in the middle of an abandoned road. It was the middle of the day, and he could clearly see that the beach was in walking distance. Before he could even move there was something that was blocking his way, keeping him completely still. The sight had nearly caused him to gag. A compact, dark blue car was lying on the side of the road. The driver’s side had received the majority of the damage, while the passenger side had only sustained a small number of dents. Michael moved a little closer, and saw a lifeless body lying in the passenger seat. It had all finally returned to him: It was all an accident. There was no way for them to avoid the drunk, angry truck driver who was driving on the wrong side of the road. There was no room for both cars to fit, and their car was moving too fast for him to safely stop, and someone had to make a choice. In that instant, Mike had chosen to give up his own life, crash violently into the side of the road, and hope that Michelle escapes only with minor cuts. It would be his final act as a human being—no, as a man—to prove to the world that everyone has the capacity to show a never ending love for another. Michael could only infer that once the car had crashed, the darkness had taken him, body and soul, only to bring him back to the place where he had died. He could see Michelle’s pale body, appearing to be perfectly asleep. She appeared to have suffered no physical damage, causing him to believe that she died of either shock or a heart attack. Michael knew that he had made the right choice, even if he didn’t mean to cause Michelle’s death. Knowing that Michelle was destined to die anyway, Mike knew that he would always give up his life for this woman. Michael slowly opened the door, not fully aware of what he was doing. A few seconds passed, and Michelle’s legs started to step out of the car in a graceful fashion. Her eyes slowly began to flutter opened, and she smiled knowing that Michael was the first thing that she saw. No words were spoken between the two; everything seemed to just make sense between the both of them. In an instant, Michelle grabbed Michael’s arm and started running toward the beach. Michael ran at the same speed as Michelle, knowing that he would stick with her forever. “We made it.” Please tell me what you think. :3
So, I have been really playing around with gimp and came up with some random ideas. I know, they are still a bit simple, but this is still experimenting about what I am comfortable with. The pictures were taken from a simple Google Image search. Avatars: Signatures: C'n'C, if you please.
Around the time the newest Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two trailer went live, another youtube page seemed to make itself known. Visit the page, which is entitled "J.K.RowlingAnnounce's Channel" and you will only see a number of owls surrounding a countdown clock. By the time the countdown clock reaches all zeros (which is around 4 AM PST), it is said that J.K. Rowling, writer of the Harry Potter novels will make an announcement of her latest project. Source So, what is this brand new project; one that is so close to the premiere of the final Harry Potter film, where we can finally see the long awaited battle between The Dark Lord and The Boy Who Lived.Various sources have had their own speculations, from the thoughts of another Harry Potter film (which is unlikely), to an eighth book in the franchise (even more unlikely), or it could be a completely different work of literature all together. Kept under greater security than Gringotts vaults, we are only hours away from finding out Ms. Rowling's biggest secret to date.
While I don't understand why people torrent media or hack into the play station network, I know that it is something not for me. I can sort of see doing it for the lulz, but it is still, technically, illegal. Please stop, don't do it. I'm your friend, I'm looking out for you. Just remember this: There is no lulz when your mouth is full of balls". -tummer
My mom has to take my computer for my (backstabbing) dad. It's good that they remember me when they need something. It doesn't matter though. I'm not going to be on KHV until probably Sunday; MSN, maybe. See ya when I see ya.
you don't get rep. :/8D:
Source So, it appears that this is the second time that Skype has gone down? It seems like a bit of a random reason for it to go down too. I know that it was working fine last night, but I wasn't able to log on this morning. Is anyone else affected by this?
Is this happening to anyone else? To mention, I haven't been on Skype for about two-three months. I was able to log onto Skype last night, although I didn't make any calls. Everything seemed to be functioning properly, or so I though. When I tried logging onto Skype this morning, it actually re-installed the entire thing. I tried logging in, but it wouldn't allow me. I went to the site, to again re-install the system. I tried logging in, but it still wouldn't let me. It goes back to the log-in screen: "! Skype cannot connect. Get Help fixing the problem". I click their link, which tells me to restart Skype in two minutes. I've even tried just restarting my computer all together, however the same thing keeps happening to me. I've "quit" Skype for two minutes, and still, nothing seems to work. I want to know if anyone can help me. Is this kind of thing happening to anyone else, like something is up with their servers instead of my computer? ---- EDIT: Found out that I'm not the only one affected by this. It turns out that supermodels caused the site to go down. go figure.
Yeah, I was simply messing around with gimp. Still kind of experimenting around with what I can do. More or less, I was just bored and found this amusing. I found all of the pics from a google searches, and if you wish to use these, please give credit to me. Pure Awesome Spoiler Epic Scream Spoiler This Joke Has Gone Too Far... Spoiler C'n'C please.
Since I'm going to be waiting around for a heart transplant for a LONG time, I figured that it was time to practice a new skill. I downloaded gimp (because I'm poor) and after an hour of trying to figure stuff out, I started creating these two sigs. Yeah, I know that they're simple, but I'm happy with them personally.

Moritaka Mashiro (14) is begged by his classmate, Akito Takagi (14) to team up with him to create Japan's next greatest manga. Mashiro enjoys to draw, only for fun, and has no real motivation to create manga. Or does he? He learns that the love of his life, Miho Azuki (14) dreams of becoming a famous voice actress. A deal is then struck. Mashiro and Azuki agree to get married only when she becomes a famous voice actress and his manga becomes a hit anime! Story by Tsugumi Ohba, art by Takeshi Obata Ages from the beginning of the manga I was skeptical when I first decided to pick up the manga. A lot of it's success seems to draw from Death Note, which was the last work these two worked on together. However, you can tell that this team is not just a one hit wonder. Ohba really nows how to format a story with good dialogue while Obata's art is neat and detailed through each of the panels. The weakest book for me is volume three. It just seemed to be missing something. And Spoiler: Volume four the team split up in volume four was just ridiculous, although it really got the story going. I have yet to see the anime, but the manga is available from Shonen Jump Advance. Volumes 1-4 are currently out while the fifth is due to release sometime early this month.
I'm taking my fourth trip to Disneyland tomorrow. Anything interesting I should do tomorrow? (No, I don't have kingdom hearts cosplay and new Star Tours isn't open until Friday. ;_; ).
We are all familiar with Harold Camping, the leader of Family Radio and the one who predicted that the end of the world was suppose to be this last Saturday. After hiding out the rest of the weekend, he finally spoke to the public one his call in show. Did he apologize to those lives that he may have ruined with his wrong prediction? Hell no! What did he do instead? He decided to say that the Rapture and the end of the world will come all at once, five months from now, on October 21. Now, I was one of the Christians who did not believe Camping's prediction. I've learned that no man, and not even Jesus knows the day or the hour that he will return (Matthew 24:36). I know not to believe people who say that they do know the date, because to me, that means they know more than God. While the Bible does say what it will be like in the End Times, it doesn't mention a specific date at all. In fact, I don't believe that God gave anyone any clues to put into the Bible. Yet, this guys says that it'll all go down on October 21. The Rapture, giant fire ball, the whole sha-bang and then some! While I do agree that the occurrence of the Rapture is debatable, the fact that everything goes down in one entire day just proves how ass-driven this guy really is. First off, the Book o Revelations, the last book in the Bible that tells of the End of the Earth, it does give specific time lines of events while no actual days (the Beast of the Sea speaking out against God for forty-two months, Revelations 13:5; the witnesses preaching in the Holy City for 1,260 days, Revelations 11:3). Last time I checked the news, Obama was losing popularity, no other politician was trying to unite the world, and no dynamic duo of preachers were at the Holy City. I know this seems like an over reaction, since I know this guy is totally wrong. Still, Camping is still seeing himself as a great leader, who is still right, and that there is nothing wrong in changing the Bible. He completely left out Revelations in his theory, which isn't exactly a good thing. In Revelations 22:19, it states that he will "add plagues" to anyone who adds to the Word and take away "the Tree of Life" from those who take away.

Don't worry about it man, we all make mistakes. It's not the end of the world. :D

What's "106 And Park"?
Four years of my life has been spent at this place, mostly in the spam zone. Met some very interesting people, a handful of awesome people, and one extraordinary person whose made life on here awesome. Thanks KHV for the memories. I'm in a chapter of my life where I'm going to be faced with death, but I'm happy to spend my life here.
