School Spirit.. STUPID HOMECOMING!!!

Posted by BenRK on Sept. 29, 2006, 11:46 a.m.

Well, homecoming is here for my school, and guess what? It's school colors day! Whoopy fricken do. At least I don't have school today, but seeing as I'm with the band, I play in the parade (why a parade???) and at the usual homecoming game. Aka, a foot ball (the American one, not the everywhere else one) game that lasts about an hour longer, and then to top it off, they're going to throw a dance.

If you knew how crappy my school dances are, then you know that our homecoming dance lasts for hours, with the only thing to do is to dance, and seeing as thats best with a girlfriend, I have no reason to stand around for 3 hours, standing on the edge of the dance floor, wondering why the hell people think this is fun, just to waste my 5 dollars and go home around 10pm (aka, soon after it started). And that is the reason that school spirit sucks.

So what we get to see our school mascot tackle the opposing team mascot from a helicopter in the middle of the field? After you have to sit there and see your team loose, the novilty wears off, as well as your pants. They sometimes freeze to the seets. Or as they really are, stands. Thick, cold, metal stants, that make you want to get up and leave. Damn, these are the times I wish I wasn't in band, just to leave the game. At least I take my Nintendo DS with me, I just wish I didn't live in Small town WORLD, seeing as the only hot spots are my house, and the new Best Western. Yeah.

Now on to my Game Making news.

The 3D RTS goes on fine. Nothing worth a screen shot, but it is starting to act 3D when I rotate the "camera" (aka a view that zooms and rotates). I might show a screen shot when I make the graphics my self, and not work off an example I downloaded (I plan on making the engine from scratch. I'm just using an example to see if it's posible, and it is).

lol, I live in a small town as well, but our football team is 5-0, first time in 13 years, plus we won our homecoming. I skipped the dance as well. I am on the football team, pretty fun to go 5-0 in your freshman season!

Do the letters AHS mean anything to you?

Nope, but the letters OHS mean something to me.

Oh, alright. Cause my local highschool, AHS, is having their Homecoming too.

I also just got back from the homecoming parade. That was fun, seeing as I got to stand in the back of the truck, nearly falling out when the driver went 25mph.

Yeah im so cool i hate pep rallys too!

Pep rallys are just an excuse for you to get out of class and laugh at freshmen. Stop complaining

And school dances are fun, and you certianally dont need to bring a girl to dance ;)

Hehehe. You have no idea what our dances are like. Boring as hell, and anyone who dosen't have a girl friend or can't dance basicly just waisted a good $5-10 that could have been used on a few bags of Skittles to melt the teath out of your head.
