Minecraft 1.3.1 (finally!)
So at last minecraft 1.3 came out 2 days ago. This was my first minecraft update so when I woke up at 6:00 at ran over to my computer to do the update; it only took about 10 seconds. I thought because of all the new additions it would take at least 30 minutes, boy was I wrong. So the new update has brought lots of smiley faces, but it has also brought a few frownie faces. Every rose has its thorn. I decided to write down my personal pros and cons for minecraft 1.3.1. I thought the addition of enderchests,book and quill, desert temples, jungle temples, tripwire were all fabulous. I have seen a lot more world generating bugs lately such as a hella lot more of those black spots, huge ones too. Also the ground glitching up and letting you see all the underground caves and lava(similar to the mod xray). I really like trading and emerald except for the fact that emerald is now the hardest ore to get and you can only get it in extreme hills biomes. However, it is a fun new block to use in creative, to make emerald city perhaps? Boats were bad; the tried to make boat easier to use and they sort of did, except they now go 5x slower than b4 )=. Cocoa beans are great. I really like the new creative inventory but it will take some time getting used to. Think I covered most of it all. If you have not, get the update but back up your 1.2.5 so you can still play on some servers that are undergoing construction to update to 1.3.1.

Amazon
I have been saving up for many archery supplies lately. I have become obsessed with archery this summer and have done it at various places. First when I was a C.I.T at a local summer camp, then when I went to sleep-away camp, at a friends house, you get the point. Anyways I really love amazon they have great deals off the real retail price (and I mean real deals not the crap they make up at Kohls) it is easy top use so on. So I was looking up what bow I would like to buy and I glance over at the price , in bold red letters it says YOU SAVE: $0.89. Wonderful. Another thing about amazon I wanted to put here was something funny I found on twitter. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B003G4IM4S/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_all remember to look at all of em'.

Back from Camp!!!
Yes, I just got back from camp and this is my first blog post in over 3
weeks. For those of you who don't know the Minecraft 1.3 update will be available on August 1. You will see this message when you open Minecraft.
It will be a big update and it has been the longest inter-break between updates. The major difference is bug fixes the most in an update also so far. Some new features include: tripwires, book and quill, better boats, jungle and desert temples, villager trading, different style villages depending on the biome, adventure mode, cocoa plant, different names for different wood planks and blocks ex birch wood planks, new inventory layout on creative, string can be placed, sandstone stairs, new ore:emerald, enderchest, wood can be placed in different directions, different wood slabs, and dispensers can shoot lava or water. As you can see there is lots of reasons why to get this new update as well as a list of bug fixes that goes from here to China. Anyways, until next time!

NEW IMAC!
Yesterday, because of a good GPA and many other little things this year I did. My parents organized a surprise drop in at the Corte Madera Apple Store. At first I thought we were just visiting but I almost screamed when I found out I was getting a brand new IMac 27". I am typing this post up right now with my new wireless keyboard and it rocks! The display is kind of scary; its that good. If you are thinking about getting a new computer I would highly recommend this regardless of the money.

Blooker Closing its doors
My other blog, Blooker- which was used to write personal book reviews is now closing down. It was never popular and never made it past 20 views. The whole thing was just a bad idea and a compete and utter failure. Those of you who might have seemed like it was interesting, go see for yourself. It's not but those of you who want to see what a failure it was it is still around. You cans see it by clicking this link.

Just 15 minutes ago I recieved my awesome creeper cross-section t-shirt! It looks awesome. Here is a picture-

I also might be getting a new computer! Right now I have an old mac mini from 2004 and it is wearing down. So my parents are thinking about getting me (and possibly my brother too) an imac 21.5 inch! Not sure about anything but I'm also saving up my money and crossing my fingers. Yesterday I added some new gadgets to the right side collum. One of them is monthly polls and it would be awesome if you guys could vote on them! The one going on currently is the classic which came first the chicken or the egg. Only one person has voted so far and that is moi so that will not cut it. I'm hoping for 50 when the poll expires! PLEASE VOTE!

Minecraft 1.3!
I Cant wait for Minecraft 1.3! As a crazy Minecraft fan this is going to be awesome. There hasnt actually been an official release/pre-release date, but Jeb tweeted a couple of days ago that it would be around 3 weeks. I really doubt that however and am thinking more around 5. This is the actual tweet- "Jens Bergensten
@jeb_
We're now working on performance and stability. We'll release 1.3 when it's ready, but it can take 2, 3 or any number of weeks." If you don't know about the many features I'm not going to write them down but you can check snapshot videos and the Minecraft Wiki. Let me just tell you it will be awesome. The only thing I will be pissed about is in about 4 weeks I am going to Yosemite for three weeks, and I'm almost positive that it will come out when I'm going to be gone. Dayum. Anyways have a great day! (that sounded corny).
The Beach!
So, today I went to the beach! Yes, I don't know very many people that like learning about other peoples lives in a blog but I really have nothing going on right now to say.... Spent about 6 hours at the actual beach and then on the way home we stopped at this amazing cliff-thing. There was huge waves crashing against the edge. At one point I was about 10 stories high and there was these massive natural structures, thing like arches and all that good stuff. Anyways the whole time I was flipping out and was scared as hell. Yes what a wimp I am. No. If you were there you would be bawling for mommy. Anywaysss; it was hellafun and I think I had a good time.

Saturdays
I went to have breakfast at a gross diner today. Åt å π¬åç´ ç嬬´∂ Åœ¨ß ç僴. It sort of ruined my Saturday. Like, Saturdays are the best day of the week. It's not Friday; where you only get the end of the day off and its not like Sunday when your all pissed because you have either work or school the next day. I like Saturdays but they are usually really boring for me, like when I have the whole Saturday doing nothing, then Sunday comes and everything is happening, except you wish it was Saturday because you have work/school the next day. Argg, I hate that. Another thing that happened like yesterday was that I just figured out someone I completely thought was a boy, turned out to be a girl. Like, I dint even question their gender, and when I found out, I almost died. Really guys, it was not obvious in ANY way. I really hate when that happens too.

My Input on Nerds
Sorry for posting really nerdy stuff. I don't consider myself a nerd but other people might. I hate nerds who are obsessed with you-know-what. I always think of that-seventies-movie, revenge of the nerds. God I hated that movie...(shivers). I hate it when people call people computer nerds, there is nots uch thing as a frecking computer nerd. There is a computer geek and that is what you call them. The only thing a computer nerd does is watch πø®n. Oh right, a lot of times in my posts I will write things in my computer language. Hopefully you guys can figure the translation out but if you cant There will be a hidden link in one of my future posts that will lead you to the decoder-key. For you dumb-asses who don't get it. ANYWAYS, I HATE NERDS! I LIKE GEEKS!
Just figured out that Jeb Batchelder( or whatever the hell his name is) in the Maximum Ride series, is most likely based off of JEB which stands for The Journal of Experimental Biology. I don't think this is just a weird coincedence......... Experimental Biology? Doesnt that kind of stuff have to do with like, DNA recombining yada, yada. Pretty cool though, eh. (NO I'M NOT CANADIAN) I researched a little bit and found out that nobody else has written anything online relating the two. Probably because the series is a little bit dated and unpopular. Just wait. This is going to be one of those things where the movie comes out with a new "special" edition of the book and then all of the sudden every kid is walking around reading it. Mark my words, it will happen. Sorry about not posting invisible imaginary blog readers out there. Ive been busy( yeah right) and tweet much more than blog.
