ADVENTURE TIME!

Cartoon Network FINALLY released Adventure Time as a season release. Before they were only releasing chopped up DVDs filled with random episodes (and I don't ever buy shows like that). I had only ever watched two episodes of Adventure Time before this release, but with there being so much hype about the show, I definitely was interested. And SO HAPPY I bought it! This show is so addicting, and so random.. it's amazing.

It contains the first 26 episodes of the show, being the entire first season. Cartoon Network is, yet again, releasing another chopped up DVD in a couple weeks. They need to stop this and just keep releasing the next complete season sets. They aren't much more expensive at all, so I don't see what the big deal is. GET ON IT!

Coming Out Your Mouth With Your Blah, Blah, Blah

It's been three long months since we last talked. So I have much much news for you.

1) The new apartment is going well. It started off shitty, as we were feuding with the other roommates, 'cause she's a raging lunatic who tried to hook my boyfriend up with another guy. (Yeah, that shit don't fly.) But we've kinda got things sorted out, it's still a little awkward, but that's expected.

2) I GOT PROMOTED >:) New position, higher pay. Yeah, life is good. A week or two ago I put in a request for me to switch shifts (I'm not liking how much time Sean and I spend apart with me being on nights. Also, I hate nights.) So we'll see how long 'til that happens.. I might have to switch stores for that to happen, but we'll see.

3) Texas Trip #2 is a Go-Go on Aug. 30 :)

4) I've decided to post-pone school, YET AGAIN, until January. But this time I actually have everything I need to go request to be switched to in-district, thus saving tons of $$$$

So there ya have it =) I'm gonna try to get back into the swing of things, and blog more often, or AT LEAST once a week, but we'll see how that goes. I promise to try. I do. TTFN

May May May Ma-aayy!

eh, so it's May. One of the least exciting months, in my book. Unless you're a senior in high school who's currently experiencing prom, graduation, and the transition into adult-hood all at once. But beeen thereee done that!

Only think really worth discussing over a cup of tea, is we've finally decided where's we're moving when our lease is up at the end of the month. It's only about four miles from here, and I'm gonna go from paying $115 a month in rent, to about $172 a month, which really sucks.. but what can ya do?

I also have to get my address on my license changed so I can get in-district for college. And I can't do that for about a week and a half >.> But hopefully everything falls through with that, and I can get summer classes all paid for, and OFFICIALLY be a college freshman =)

And I might be going to see The Avengers tomorrow..? But yeah, that's about it.



Someone should cure Cancer or something, so that May 2012 can be more exciting.. #justsaying

Survey Says... Danny Phantom!

Danny Phantom is one of my absolute favorite shows from Nickelodeon! And when Shout Factory! announced last year that they had got the rights to it (along with many other old Nick shows), I was so excited about getting them on DVD!

Season 2, Part 1 was released April 3, 2012, so OF COURSE I went out and bought it (I did the same for Season 1) :3 But I feel like ShoutFactory! didn't really give a shit about this release. The artwork is cool and all, but the actual content on the discs are all screwed up.

The inside artwork of the DVD set lists the first ten episodes as being:

1. Memory Bank
2. Doctor's Orders
3. Pirate Radio
4. Reign Storm, Part 1
5. Reign Storm, Part 2
6. Identity Crisis
7. Fenton Menace
8. The Ultimate Enemy, Part 1
9. The Ultimate Enemy, Part 2
10. The Fright Before Christmas

The list on the artwork is 100% correct, as that's the order the episodes were originally released by Nickelodeon while they were on air. HOWEVER (and this is what really saddens me), while watching the DVD, I noticed the episodes are ordered all out-of-whack, some are missing, and some are on the set that shouldn't be there. The DVD episodes go in the order of:

1. Reign Storm, Part 1
2. Reign Storm, Part 2
3. Doctor's Orders
4. Identity Crisis
5. Fenton Menace
6. Pirate Radio
7. The Fright Before Christmas
8. Micro-Management (should be in part 2)
9. Masters of All Time (should be in part 2)
10. Beauty Marked (should be in part 2)

So yeah, way to show no respect for the fans of a show. It looks like they just slapped together a bunch of episodes that just HAPPENED to be in Season 2 of the show, called them part 1, and hoped no one would notice. And so, obviously part 2 (whenever it's released), will be just as jumbled of a mess to finish up the season. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that Season 3 isn't as out of order as this was.

**UPDATE**
ShoutFactory! commented on a Facebook post I left them about this issue, and they stated that the episodes on the DVD are in the order that they intended, but there was a misprint with the DVD artwork. They informed me to email them about getting the correct DVD wrap, so I'm doing just that! >.>

Life: Updated!.. Again!

I havn't been on since January (So to the two people that might read this: I'm sorry.) I just wanted to say heyyyy :) And say that I'm going to try and be on more like in the beginning :)

Will just say that I've been put up to full time at work, Sean and I just celebrated our one year three days ago :3 we're moving at the end of May to a new apartment (maybe in the same apartment complex, but hopefully not), and I'm (fingers crossed) starting Parkland in June =)

I THOUGHT that I only had to get a letter from work saying that I've worked 35+ hours per week in the past 30 days to be listed as in-district (thus, saving me $1200), HOWEVER >.< I found out that I have to do that PLUS get a notarized letter from my mom saying she no longer claims me as a dependent, a letter from my roommates saying I've lived here since January, and a voter registration card and my driver's license listed as me living in this area >.> fml. I got the work letter, and yesterday got the letter from my mom and the roommates.. now for the DL and VR part :o ugh

So that's all folks ;)

Life: Updated.

So, news in the world of Tyler. (If you've befriended me on Twitter, Facebook, or Formspring, you might already know a lot of this.)..

I GOT A JOB AT WALMART! :] Orientation was the 10th, did computer work the 12th, and had my first official shift last night! Have today off and then I go back Tuesday.. o.O Training for these next two weeks, then I don't know.

I was supposed to have a second job at Steak 'n Shake, but today I got a phone call saying that they no longer needed me since I couldn't work night shift for them =/ which is total BS! Now I'm looking for a possible second job.. which I might already have lined up :D I got a call from Za's today about my application.. so I have to call them back tomorrow ^_^

My biggest problem with these jobs: I have no car. Well.. I have one. It just doesn't have a tire on, and there's some issues under the hood >.> My mom "stole" my tire about 2 or 3 months ago, and I'm just now needing the use of my car, and when we got to put the tire back on, the lugnuts are missing!?!?!?! So, we have to do something about that >___<

Lastly, I will be moving the first of February to Champaign (about 40 minutes from where I live now), to apartments with Sean's cousin, her boyfriend, and two other people. Should be interesting.. o.O I've found that I don't have enough boxes for our stuff ^~^ ugh oh..

So, that's about it :] Hopefully things keep going good(ish) for me =)

The New Year!

We are six days into 2012. And I have neglected to wish the Blogger world a Happy New Year... sooo... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! =)

The biggest thing I'm trying to do right now is get a job! I had two interviews Tuesday, Jan 3rd at Walmart and Cracker Barrel. I got a job offer at Walmart, had a drug test yesterday, and now I'm just waiting for a phone call about orientation. I think my Cracker Barrel interview went great, and I'm supposed to hear back from them sometime next week. Then I have an interview at the Steak 'n Shake where my brother works. I'd rather work at the Steak 'n Shake, than the Cracker Barrel, but whatever I get, I'll be happy.

Hopefully between two part time jobs, I'll get the type of money I need to pay for 1/4 of an apartment, pay for food, and save up for college in the fall.

Then I've set a New Year's Resolution to feel better about myself. I have this amazing life, and amazing boyfriend, and yet, I'm always feeling depressed and down in the dumps. I want that to change. Going to be doing more physical activities, hopefully eating a little better, and just try and get myself into a better psychological state!

Again, Happy New Year to all, and I wish you all the best in this New Year! <3
