Mark me as out of date but I just got my first ever real/decent ipod. It's a 5th gen ipod Nano with epikz camera. The camera is currently being put to good use in some production stuff. The lulz is that the camera quality for the ipod is the same if not better than my old Canon digital camera. Once I get a good Youtube name, I'll upload one video that I've captured.

Quote of the Week
With the steady (however slow) progression of the blog, it's time to do something crazy and boring that plenty of other people have done before. That's right. A quote of the week. From now on, every week for as long as I can be bothered, there will be a little (or big) quote on one of the sidebars. At the end of the month all the quotes will be put into the new month post. Have fun reading quotes/proverbs.

Youtube legends: niganiga vs. Ray William Johnson
If you've never heard of these guys, you're living under the worlds largest anti-internet rock. Anyway, (to the people that do know them) it has been debated quite often which one is "better". Here are the common points;

I'm a nigahiga fan. What??

Ray William Johnson's Youtube channel
nigahiga
- He's Asian (this can be a bad thing to racist people)
- His comedy skits are original
- He does a variety of topics
- He's Youtube most subscribed
- He collaborates with other Youtubers (giving an overall sense of awesomeness, he's also collab'd with Jay Park o_O)
- Overall more fan interaction (talks to his fans though live chat and his video site, HIGAtv and shows bloopers/deleted scenes)
- He's funnier
- Shows people funny videos and makes jokes about them
- He's actually a comedian
- Has a cool backdrop
- Uploads videos twice a week (nigahiga is whenever he feels like it)
- Did I mention he's funnier?

Remembrance Day 2010
On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of each year, every Commonwealth nation stops and pays respect to the people, that gave their lives for their country in times of war, especially The Great War. At 11AM, we observe a minutes silence after the Last Post is played. So remember the fallen of war and their sacrifices, Lest We Forget.

We all know that some of the planned posts crashed due to an unexpected thing called real life. Who cares when you have three followers (lame compared to nigahiga but whatever).
CRANK THAT ROFLMAO!

News grind: San Francisco bans Happy Meals
Not a big post but just showing people that are unaware of this uh... this. Check it out. What do you think of it? Right or wrong? I think it's right. I mean really, we keep complaining about child obesity and then go back to letting kids play Warcraft and eat crap junk. Heh... "Happy".
Comment and be replied.

NaNoWriMo 2010
November is the month of novel writing. Or so says the internets. Anyway, the National Novel Writing Month is an online competition (against yourself mostly) for EVERYONE (with internet) challenging them to write a 50,000 word (175 page) novel by the end of the month. Read on (from the site).
Valuing enthusiasm and perseverance over painstaking craft, NaNoWriMo is a novel-writing program for everyone who has thought fleetingly about writing a novel but has been scared away by the time and effort involved.
Because of the limited writing window, the ONLY thing that matters in NaNoWriMo is output. It's all about quantity, not quality. The kamikaze approach forces you to lower your expectations, take risks, and write on the fly.
Make no mistake: You will be writing a lot of crap. And that's a good thing. By forcing yourself to write so intensely, you are giving yourself permission to make mistakes. To forgo the endless tweaking and editing and just create. To build without tearing down.
As you spend November writing, you can draw comfort from the fact that, all around the world, other National Novel Writing Month participants are going through the same joys and sorrows of producing the Great Frantic Novel. Wrimos meet throughout the month to offer encouragement, commiseration, and—when the thing is done—the kind of raucous celebrations that tend to frighten animals and small children.
In 2009, we had over 165,000 participants. More than 30,000 of them crossed the 50K finish line by the midnight deadline, entering into the annals of NaNoWriMo superstardom forever. They started the month as auto mechanics, out-of-work actors, and middle school English teachers. They walked away novelists.
So, to recap:
What: Writing one 50,000-word novel from scratch in a month's time.
Who: You! We can't do this unless we have some other people trying it as well. Let's write laughably awful yet lengthy prose together.
Why: The reasons are endless! To actively participate in one of our era's most enchanting art forms! To write without having to obsess over quality. To be able to make obscure references to passages from our novels at parties. To be able to mock real novelists who dawdle on and on, taking far longer than 30 days to produce their work.
When: You can sign up anytime to add your name to the roster and browse the forums. Writing begins November 1. To be added to the official list of winners, you must reach the 50,000-word mark by November 30 at midnight. Once your novel has been verified by our web-based team of robotic word counters, the partying begins.
So it doesn't matter if you're C.S Lewis or some really crappy amateur wannabe homebrew junkie made it on notepad writer, join in TEH FUN of writing a quick (as in, 50,000 word quick) novel. I've started (will post my story at the end of the month, have no intention of getting to 50,000), why don't you?
Let's seeme you with at least 5,000 words!

A lonely, late month update
Yes we haven't been posting in the fervor we were in before for a few reasons (scapegoat time); we've been having end of year exams, Blue has been ill with a virus and is tired often, Jam and K have planned to post for the holidays and we all have our own projects at hand. So, happy November (pinch and a punch for the fourth day of the month) and be sure to check BJK often (posts have been planned).
Sincerely,
BlueJamK
