ugggh scary stuff.

So you know those weird internet posts that would absolutely freak you out? (creepy pastas, abnormal and possibly supernatural activity, screamers etc.)  Well here is one that absolutely scared the living daylights out of me.  I watched it with headphones in the dark at 2 a.m. with no sleep for the past 20 hours... let's just say I didn't sleep for another 20.

Oh yeah, there's a health warning.  You should read it.

So on a less entertaining but still related note, I had a really weird phobia when I was younger.  Not sure what the name for it is though.  I used to wonder if I'm mentally retarded without not knowing it.  Like what is people just but up with me, and thought I was super annoying, and that I acted like a 5 year old? Was that why people didn't really like me?

Haha I thought some weird things as a kid.

Why being important is nice but sometimes sucks

Just from reading the title, I sound really arrogant.  And the rest of the post is going to also sound like I'm really arrogant.  Just to let you know before you read further, I'm not trying to be a stuck up, world-revolves-around-me type of person.  If I call myself important, it's because other people have told me so, and I know my role among the student body of my school.

So if you don't know, I'm a musician.  Music is not only something I love creating as art and recreation, it's my passion, and my language.  So being a music geek, it's only natural that I spend (literally) most of my time at school in the band room.  Seriously, if you add up how many hours I am in the band room compared to how many hours in any other classroom collectively, I spend more time in the band room.
Because I'm there so much, the teacher I see the most obviously would be the band teacher.  Just yesterday, he asked me a question that made me think quite a bit about my role in the school.  He asked, "Who are you going to teach all the stuff you learned in jazz?"  To understand his question, a little background info is needed.

There are currently no jazz pianists in Sr. High.  I am the only one.  Next year I graduate, which means that someone (currently) between grades nine and eleven really needs to step up their learning in that area.  And of course the best way is to have the person who does it best in the school teach them... and that would be me.
I would be more than happy to teach someone how to play jazz piano, but the problem comes in with my crazy and evil schedule.  Even though I have a lot of spares during the day, it's usually taken by either practice or homework.  Or sleep, because I don't get enough of it during the night.  If I could fit another student in jazz piano, I think it would be a lot of fun, since jazz is right up my alley.
That wasn't the only problem though.  After the question was asked, me and my teacher spent about ten minutes discussing who would be a good candidate to, in simplest terms, (not trying to brag here) be my successor.  We both definitely agreed that people are not simply replaceable. Each new band every year develops a new style and approach to music, even if it is very subtle.  However, if we don't find someone to learn the basics of a vital role quickly, then the whole band suffers.

Then I realized, that a lot of people are going to miss me, and I'm going to terribly miss everyone in the program as well.  They say that the people you should know the best are the people in your grade (since you're with them for 13 years), but the people I consider my family at school are people in the band programs.  Especially the Jr. Highs, it's fun to help them learn and watch them grow as musicians, and I find a lot of joy in doing that.  Jeez, it sounds like I have kids or something...
My teacher's question made me think of all the people I would simply see a lot less next year.  The bassoon player in grade 7 that would always asked if I lived in the band room (I kind of do), the twins that I know that play way more instruments than me, the whole grade 9 band that I loved working with last year, all the people who complimented me that one time I directed the band, and many more people who rely on me for help.  I'm going to really miss everyone.  And from what I've been told, they're going to miss me too.

...aaaaand I'm crying.  Great.

So in a way, I don't want to graduate.  Because I don't want to leave this environment that I love being in so much, and helping other people in whatever they need for the sake of their smile and "thank you".

I think I'm going to visit a lot next year.

Bored bored bored

So guess what happens when you're on the highway, and the tire just decides to go flat?  You get stuck in the rain, waiting for a tow truck. 

I got really bored of waiting, so I thought of playing the game that I posted about earlier when I played with my younger sister.  Each person takes turns saying I've word and this is what we came up with...

Once upon a castle there is nothing but food and ponies.  Unfortunately, the food ran away with the ponies, who had EVERYTHING.  Unicorns fly um, upside up, into the castle, destroying the interplanetary moon.  Then suddenly the grumpy receptionist at summerwood farted, going from toilet to a black hole.  Then, earth's moon spilt like a banana.  Teddy "the destroyer" Roosevelt brought laser chainsaws to life.  He sawed Santa Claus into a blood sausage.  Mrs. Claus hated her dress, so she died.  The ghost, Tommy, revived haggisland surreptitiously to spin happily like little girls.  The little girls then decided to drink liquor um until DEATH! (Who knew little girls could achieve a BAC of .40?)  The Nessie emblem was obsolete.  Braveheart was awakened through enlightenment of Donegal beer, which happened to be mixed, scrambled, and grammatically incorrect.  Perturbingly, Braveheart decided not to eat for 40 centuries to diet on oysters.  Since Zeus slept for 120 oyster lives, The Walrus kookookujubed.  Athena ate haggis, transporting cabbages into mars bars.  Children promote antisocial activity during lunch.  Cabbage is gross.  Cauliflower grew inside the ears of cabbages; nevertheless, children skipped breakfast to hop from hypoglycemia and fainted unexpectedly.  Burritos give gas to motorcoaches as do diesel give power to stars.   Fires dance wantonly, simulating trials for George Washington who also kookookujubed.  Lucanthorpes have Honey Paw seized under pressure inside the pantry despite Braveheart dieting furiously.  Mother Theresa despised dieting, therefore Rapunzel cooked her Rapunzels.  Then Mother Goose said, "SHINDEIRU!!!" and Rapunzel shrieked like will-o'-wisps.  Archery was invented later that day, when Braveheart committed himself to permanent dieting.  My final effort in ending this ends.

Austin posted at least three times in a week!? What is this!?

So I'm going for  a trip around Europe for the next three weeks, which explains my more frequent than usual posting. So, enjoy my other posts, and I will post again in a few weeks...

Yay for the weirdest stories ever.

This was written with 2 hours of sleep in 30 hours.  My sister and I took turns writing out sentences.   Read with caution.

I once had an uncle, we called him uncle Sam.  Uncle Sam was a strange man... He really green eggs and ham!  He liked to tell us that when the sun hits your eyes, like a big pizza pie - THAT'S AMOR ÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉ!  (Lolwut). Then batman came along and ate the big pizza pie.  Wait a sec, he ate the sun?  Apparently. 
OHISAMA WA UTAUYO!  OHISAMA A WA MITEIRU!  ALWAAAAAAYS. Just like that duck that is somewhere, somehow ALWAYS watching you. 

Hey remember grade school?  What's the i before e rule? Um... i before e... Always. Mushrooms.
Once upon a coffee, Garfield decided nothing.  Because mustache.  Your argument is invalid.  Its pre-boarding guys! Cya!

Anime powers that would be really cool to have

So since I'm an anime freak and feeling random I am making a list of anime powers that I personally like and think would be awesome to have.  It contains some spoilers, so I bolded the title of the anime if you want to watch it, or are in the process of watching it. 
So here's my list, from preference of least to most.

Death Note
The death note - A notebook in which whoever's face is imagined while being written down will die of heart attack unless specified otherwise.  Really, I wouldn't want to use a death note but it's good blackmail material for the people who know it's power...
Shinigami eyes - you can see the date of when other people die with the exception of other death note users.  This ability comes at the cost of half your lifespan.
Light Yagami's intelligence - Actually this item should be down by I.Q. 200.  Light's reasoning skills are beyond fantastic... Imagine being able to outsmart anyone but a little kid who plays with toys all day?

Naruto
Byakugan - Simply put, it's x-ray vision.  Would be helpful in the dark, spying on people, or playing hide and seek...
I.Q. 200 - It would be nice yo be super smart.
Chidori - Lightning comes out of your hand.  Need I say more?
Shadow Clone Jutsu - Ever wish you needed copies of yourself?  Yeah.
Sharingan - Optical power that gives the ability to analyze and copy anything after seeing it just once (such as a dance, drawing, or signature). Also can predict human physical movement (making sports and fighting easy) or copy them with barely any lag in copied actions. 

Zero no Tsukaima (Familiar of Zero)
Gandalfr - The ability to be able to use any practical weapon at the level of an expert just by touching it or picking it up.  This means guns, swords, other melee weapons, and big things too like warships or fighter jets. 

Attack on Titan
Maneuver Gear - Steam powered (streampunk item)  harness system that let's you literally swing from building to building like spiderman.  Also has 8 blades.

Sword Art Online
There's no ability from this anime that I particularly like.  I just thought it would be pretty freaking cool to live in the SAO world.  Who doesn't want a virtual reality massive multiplayer online role playing game with swords, accelerated combat, and high level insta-cooking?

Code Geass
Rolo's Geass - Rolo's optical power is the ability to freeze his target's perception of time, making them freeze in the spot for a short period of time.  The range and duration is typically around 6 meters and 10 seconds, but can be expanded and extended if wanted.  Using this Geass extensively with no rest could turn out fatal for the user, though.  I'd be unbeatable at hide and seek with this >:D
LeLouch's Geass - Optical power in which when commanding the target with eye contact, the target will comply with no questions asked.  It can only be used once per person though.  It also reflects off mirrors and works on the user, too. 

Bleach
Fullbringer powers - In Bleach, all things, all matter has at least a tiny bit of soul in it.  Fullbringers can manipulate that soul to their advantage.  For example, they can drink water by making the water flow through the air into their mouth.  They can run faster by using the soul in the pavement to propel themselves forward.  They can even walk on air.  A fillbringer also has the ability to alter the shape of an item that is usually on them at all times (necklace turns into a sword).  This is called fullbring.  And the fullbring I find the coolest is the next item...
The Book of Time - This fullbring is turning a book into a sword.  Whatever this sword cuts, you can insert yourself into the object's past just by thinking it.  So if I went up to my worst enemy and cut them with the book of time, then I can make it so we started as childhood friends.  Then I would have one less enemy.  When someone is cut by the book of time, the person feels the pain, but sustains no injuries or bruises.  They immediately pass out after being cut.   The book of time also works on inanimate objects.  Let's say I'm fighting someone.  If I cut the ground, then I can insert traps that I "set up in the past".  Now my opponent would be surprised to find the area was normal one moment, and then filled with traps the next moment.  One thing to be noted is that the book of time does not alter events altogether.  It simply inserts the user's presence or influence into the past.  It can be used as a brainwashing device.  Also, it does not let the user actually travel in time.  Again, it only inserts influence and presence.

Medaka Box
In the world of Medaka Box, there are three types of people: normal, special, and abnormal.  The abnormals are not prodigies or geniuses.  They are humans in which nature responds to in positive manner (rolling six dice and all six landing on a one, and consistently doing this). Abnormals have abilities called "abnormalities" (go figure). 
Autopilot - Reflex times are next to nothing. 
Analyze - Abnormality that grants super analyzing powers that can be applied.  Whoever has this abnormality is considered the greatest trainer in the world.
The end - The abnormality of abnormalities.  This ability let's the user copy and master any abnormality after seeing it used in combat. 

Problem Children are Coming from a Different World, aren't they?
The power of authority - Whatever you say, goes.  Not just for people, but inanimate objects too.  If you tell someone to shut up, they will.  If you ask for the truth, you will have it.  You can turn on light switches by asking the light bulb to turn on.  If you want your lawn to stop growing because you're too lazy to cut it every week, you can make it happen.
