Cardboard Batarangs

So, today I realized how horribly off my computer's calendar is.  I had to correct some of my previous posts information because it said that it was made in February of 2011. Ha... anyways.

I am Batman. Black cape, grappling gun, batarangs and all.

Well... okay, my cape was a little short and the grappling gun was just a Nerf-gun sprayed painted black... but the fact that my batarangs were legitimate cardboard makes up for all of that. :D

I ended up getting invited to a friend's 19th birthday party, and it was banging! The theme was "Masquerade", but you had to wear a costume with your mask so I decided to be the best DC Comics character ever: The Batman. (Insert theme music here)

It was actually a lot of fun... I'm going to post some pictures later once I upload them. I ended up winning the costume contest, so that was just the cherry on top of the cake for me.

Be afraid. Most legit batman ever is on the prowl. >:D

You'll see what I mean when I upload pictures later. It was a great night in Gotham, and some of the highlights for me were the things my friends said to me when they saw me in costume.

My friend Sam saw me in costume before I went to the party and asked, "Are you going to a costume party?"
It was like he thought I wore a cape on a regular basis...
Afterwards, I left something behind and had to run to the lost and found to look for it. So I ran through the building holding my cape behind me and singing the old batman theme from before I was born, and as I passed a group of people talking I paused and stared at them. They started cracking up and I ran away, grabbed what I had come for, and as I was leaving one of them said "...weird." And I spun on my heel and shouted "Don't hate! Celebrate!" And rushed off.
Afterwards, I preformed an amazing leap down a flight of stairways with my cape spread behind me, and got a roaring applause from my friends behind me. ;D In reality they were laughing at me but hey... Haters gonna hate, potatoes gonna potate.
There were other fun highlights that night, but those were just the cream of the crop for me.

Oh, and ironically a girl came to the party as Harley Quinn. It was on like Donkey Kong.

I think I should probably bring this to a close though, so I will save my stories for later. I just wanted to make an update for anyone who was wondering what I've been up to.

I'll post again later,

Symbols Symbols Everywhere And Nobody To Translate

So, today I decided to draw a little bit of fan-art in my free time. Tell me what you think, and try and guess where all of the symbols come from.

(Obviously I wasn't able to compile EVERY Slender Man/Fear related symbol, and some of these I created myself with a hint of humor and imagination. These are all of the symbols that I know of or have seen)

Anyways, which symbol do you enjoy most? :) Do you know what any of these mean/translate to mean?

I'll be making more posts soon! I have a four day weekend (Yay!) so hopefully I can find time to sit down and write something mildly entertaining.

Thanks for reading what I have posted so far,

How To Start A Blog

That is the question. I created this blog about a year or so ago maybe (I can't really remember) after being pressured into it by a friend of mine. He was really into this kind of stuff, and probably spent more time on the internet than off. After a little while though, he and I got disconnected and distanced ourselves from each other, so I kind of let this blog sit in a dark lifeless corner of the internet where it has stayed until today.

What pulled me back to it? Well, a lot of things actually. Another friend of mine has kind of drawn me into a few existing blogs, and until now I hadn't really followed them like I should. It should be easier to keep up with said blogs now that I'm using one. I'll also be posting comments and thoughts now, so that makes everything a bit more fun right? Haha... another reason is that I get bored easily and need something to do on those "Slow days". Ya I know right? I should probably find a more productive hobby...

Productivity can wait, right? Haha, nah I'm not serious about that. Seize the day, eh? 

Anyways, I think I can find time for both seizing the day and lazing around ;)

I guess I've done an okay job of getting past that "First Post Writers Block" that some people complain about, but I can't say that this is anything... amazing. Heh. 

Oh right, I just realized I failed to introduce myself. Look at me, skipping the niceties. My friends nicknamed Michelangelo, but I usually just tell people to call me Angelo. Not quote as boring as my real name ;P

I guess I might as well give you a short paragraph about myself, so here I go. I'm a seventeen year old American teenager, I like anything and everything that keeps my attention, music and art are my favorite things in the world, I regular perform in shows (Actually, right now I'm preforming in a local community production of Oliver The Musical, which has been a lot of fun) and I have an unlimited amount of things I love. My friends are fantastic, Batman is a boss (The Joker is a freaking beast), and oh did I not mention that I geek out regularly? Ya, I have my moments.

Anyways, if you're still interested in reading whatever else I post, please click the "follow" button. Cool beans.

Oh, and I know this is technically a big ol' jinx on me, but one of my best friends got me into the Slender Man Mythos so I've been checking those out a lot. Haha I know you're not supposed to talk about him or he comes and hunts you down, but I thought it was necessary to say since the majority of blogs I will be following are related to Slendy and his crew. Part of me really wants to get stalked, actually. Idiotic, I know. I guess it depends on my mood really, sometimes I feel adventurous. Sometimes I act like an adrenaline junky... sometimes I don't. 

Actually, a year ago my friend and I talked about making a YouTube channel about Slendy for fun, but it ended up falling through. It wouldn't have been any good anyways haha we could never agree on what we would do for the story-line. 

But ya... Slendy is a huge part of my geek-cycle. Just thought I'd give him his five minutes of fame. 

Oh, and I am a stegosaurus and when I get bored I spontaneously generate planets. NBD. 

I might as well bring this to a close, so I hope you've enjoyed my first blog post! Let's party later :P
