Hey folks! Robert here! Its been a little while since I've posted so I have alot of stuff to show you! yesterday i went on a photography craze and took a gazillion pictures! Some of 'em are pretty neat, and some of 'em are just blurry pixelated things, lol. Well for those of you who would like to know, I am still suffering from the after affects of drinking a redbull. Not the extreme hyperness, but what comes after that. Yea, you got it. Extreme EXHAUSTION. I feel like I just ran a 78 kilometer marathon! that's 78,000 Meters! Which is the same as 7,800,000 centimeters! yikes! well Im sure you don't want to listen to me droning on and on and on AND ON and on AND OOONNN and on and on and on and ON and ooonn and on and on and on and....yea. blah blah blah blabbermouth.

Contest results AND video!  

Posted by The Ordinary

Hey folks, Robert here. Sorry I havent posted in a bit, been busy. well, firstoff i have some vids to show you guys, I took them yesterday at church. Now These videos have MUCH better sound, you just have to turn up the speakers a bit. Even though they are a bit pointless I think you'll enjoy them.



EDIT: since my editing program is not accessible at this point i cannot turn it right side up. you will have to deal with it. so there.



lama lord




football





Blue pen








In other news, I am releasing the results for the best actor and photo category contest. *Drums beat in the backround*



The winner is........ STEPHEN CALDERONE! yes, StevyO won by a last minute landslide of votes. Congratulations stevy boy! If I had a popsicle i would give it to you, but of course, I dont.



In Second place, we have JOHN HILL! now John, I'd rather skip on if you dont mind, because i dont feel like elaborating about your "Superior skills".



In third place.....ROBERT GALBRAITH! aye aye thats me! a good pat on the back for myself i must say!





In third place, the ever grumbling Cody Branchaw! yay. wahoo. blah blah blah.





And in dead last, with a grand total of an entire ZERO votes, Robert Benjamine! *crowd blinks*. yea, sorry robyio! maybe next time!



And im running out of time so I'll just skip onto the next contest. The winner of the photo category contest, by public opinion, is....."The girls!" Yes, they won by a close margin, but at least they won. yay, whoopee. Moving on.



I recently finished this composition, a poem, a few days ago. I would have the edited version for you but since my editor has failed to get me that copy, You'll have to be satisfied with this one. Its free verse, and I have properly titled it, "Imprisoned". Enjoy!



Imprisoned



The icy grip of winters claw,
Seems to grasp at me tightly.
Fear yet to be consumed,
Burns within my being.



Am I to be enslaved,
Forever victim of its snare?
For I sway upon an edge,
It awaits me to fall.



As cold as death,
Its ropes bind me.
Twisting my fate to its own,
It seeks my destruction.



But Lo I shall be free,
For yea, it cannot last.
Its strength is limited,
To the passing of time.



Its grip has weakened,
Quietly I slip away.
The endless night is over,
The Morning has finally come.



Well, thats all for now folks! I gotta go do school n stuff, but I hope to be back later! I have choir today, and hopefully I will take my camera. So i might just have something interesting for you all later on! Ok, well im gone. Vamoosed.



See ya!

Posted by The Ordinary

Hey Folks! Just got back from my field trip. Let me tell you, IT POSITIVELY ROCKED! It was definatly the best field trip I've been on with tapestry yet! We drove forever in the car then we stopped in this rural town and went in a cool coffee shop. I took ALOT of pictures for you guys. Then we crossed the street to the museum and began our tour. It was quite a place! They had old medicines and bones and stuff, cody loved it. Well i couldnt take hardly any pictures because the people in charge said they didnt own all the stuff so, yea. But I managed to get a few in!
We also went to a really cool battlefield and got covered in mud. there was a little museum there in which I DID get pictures. It was alot of fun! I took some cool vids as well, but since my camera is really old, it was windy, and everyone was shouting, I didnt go so well. But I decided to post em up here anyway. Well, thats about all! Here's the pics, Enjoy!
( psst! I forgot to tell you guys that i left out ALOT of pictures. sorry but they wouldnt upload!)
