The Legend of Zelda: the complete animated series

Today, Alan and I went to Jared's!  "It can only be jarrrEEEEEDDD!!!"  And I got a job application!  Hopefully, after sending in hundreds of applications all over the valley, these people will be smart enough to hire me. :)  Anywho, after getting my thing, we went to starbucks as usual.  

yesh, and now i still shmell like coffeeee! hee hee! we also watched this 1989 animated series for The Legend of Zelda. Hahahahah it was kinda funny. all of the colors kept changing and Link's head got bigger when said "I'll do anything for you Zelda!" *widening head*  . . . . .

Also, Link was a total horn-dog and kept trying to get Zelda to kiss him.  It made me sad because that's not the Link I know and love . . . Before and after the cartoon started, there was this HILARIOUS Mario thing!! It was of these two real-life fat guys dressed as Mario and Luigi dancing around and singing and I almost peed my pants. . . yikes . . That's when I realized that there is an old Mario cartoon show, too!! The sad thing about the Legend of Zelda one is that there are only three discs and it says on the cover "The complete series!"  I guess it didn't too well . . . 

heh heh! Lets give you a bit of an excerpt from the back cover. . . 

"The animated series The Legend of Zelda debuted in 1989 on Fridays during the Super Mario Brothers Super Show!  week daily broadcast.  It originally aired in conjunction with the first Legend of Zelda game release and breathes life into the characters of Link, Zelda, and the evil wizard, Ganon-- fleshing out their personalities with a little bit of romance and a DASH of humor!"

BAH ha ha ha ha! I'm pretty sure that this was really funny. . . MOBLINS!!

This show saddened me a little bit. . . I never thought Link was that loud and obnoxious.  His catchphrase was, "Well exCUUUUUUUUUse ME, Princess!"  After four times, it got a little annoying.  

yesh. . . Also, Zelda had REEEALLY poofy hair. Like really really poofy. *POOF* And Ganon was a pig. . .  Is that right!? Shannon has just informed meh that it is. . . heh heh heh. . .

I feel bad for the person who was Ganon's voice.  That must really hurt to talk like that for a while.  Maybe THAT'S why the show only has three known discs in existance.  Either that, or the guy just has a really scary voice in real-life. . SMOKER VOICE!!

I'm not exactly sure if I'm using a consistent color of blue for my text. . . ooooh well! Oh yeah! And this one time, Zelda was using a bow, but no arrows!!! What's up with that!?! >>----->

Do the Mario!!

Quote of the Day!

"If I was a giraffe, I wouldn't have to do pull-ups!"

Haha! Oh man, good times a weight lifting! So you probably want to hear the story behind this, right? Alrighty then, so our school is on block schedule and swimming is my first period. So on b-days, we (the swim team) go to the school at like 6:00 to lift weights. (Yes 6:00AM, I know! It's freakin' early!!) Needless to say we're all a bit loopy and sleep deprived.

So today at weight lifting Mallori was trying to do some pull-ups. Trying is the key word there.

After numerous failed attempts, she mused to the group:

"If I had a longer neck, I could get my chin over the bar..."

"Maybe if you were a giraffe...." Which was followed by the oh-so-famous quote of the day...

"If I was a giraffe, I wouldn't have to do pull-ups!"

Ahhh... The many adventure of art class!

So Alan and I are in this art class for Salt Lake Community College and it's pretty awesome. Well, the CLASS isn't, but being in there with Alan is freakin' sweet. We listen to his ipod while we're drawing old ladies and other random crap like that and make up dance moves for certain songs. Our all time favorite dance is "The Shake It Dance". You know that song by Metro Station? You know... Shake It? haha Well I'm not even going to TRY to explain how you do the dance, but let me tell you, it's hilarious.

Another great thing about art is we can pretty much do whatever we want. We like to wedge the huge ruler between our desks and fling stuff at people, but it mainly hits Maggie and then we feel bad! HAHA! Also, another cool thing we do with the ruler is cover one side in cool designs in multi-colored puff paints, then press it side down on a piece of paper. You have to pull it off at an angle, but if you do, it looks so COOL!! Wow... we are so awesome...

So the other day in art, I was trying to get Alan to remember this one time when I tried to turn and face him really fast and accidentally hit his shoulder with my face lol. So I was like, "Alan! Remember that one time that I hit my face on your shoulder?" We had a good laugh and returned to our ipod dance moves. Then I turned to face him really fast and hit my face on his shoulder!! HAHA! Totally unplanned and everything and it HURT!! But I was laughing so hard I didn't even care! And so was he, so it was pretty awesome. That was yet another time that I almost peed my pants at school. Anyway, I'll post a funny picture to go with this post soon!

Until next time! Alan, it's YOUR turn now! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D<3>

Candy Shop Windows

My family and I were on a trip to Yellowstone, when we visited an old west type ghost town called Virginia City (or was is Nevada City? I forget, we did visit both though... At one of them we got to pan for gold! It was pretty awesome!)

Anyways there was an old fashioned candy shop there, as part of the town. We had just finished walking through it, when the candy people started making a batch of cinnamon taffy right in the display window! Well, I guess they weren't really making it but they were cutting up the big blob of taffy and wraping in in little papers, but it was pretty cool nontheless.

As we were enjoying the smell of fresh taffy and watching the inner working of the taffy wraping buisness, I found myself going in for a closer look and... BONK! I totally smacked my head on the window! The people inside tried not to laugh, but how do you not laugh at that? Outside, me and the fam were cracking up! Before we left, the workers came out and gave us some free samples of the cinnamon taffy they were wraping.

Good times! :)

CRAYONS!!

Today, Alan and I made crayons!! Yep, real crayons!! We made a ton, but most of them didn't turn out very cool, so pretty soon, we decided to make some poo colored ones. There was this one that we took out of the mold and it was still hot, so we made it a curly poo crayon!! I insist that they are pronounced "cran" but Alan doesn't seem to agree with me. Which is lame, since I'm totally right.

Yep, crayons are cool! That's right, crayons, not crens, crans, or crowns... CRAYONS!!! By the way, the poo crayons looked very realistic!

And don't think we are lame for making crayons on a saturday. Only people who are truly confident in their popularity (lol right.) can do something so lame and make it look cool.

Haha! We're cool! :) And we ate cashews!

and we made a cucumber maaaaan!!

Lawn Gnomes

Personally, I don't understand the lawn gnome fetish some people seem to have. I think they're creepy. But in almost every neighborhood, you will find at LEAST one..

yeah... I mean, they're cool little garden doods, but you've got to set a limit! I mean seriously! Q!

This person is crazy -->
I think the expedia gnome guy is sorta scary, and have you seen the movie Chicken Run?

I like the Expedia gnome!! He's cool, and like when he tries to put the electric plug in the socket in Europe!? It's golden! But I agree, too much of a good thing, can be a good thing, but lawn gnomes are not one of these things...

wow.. our blog is SO insightful! So, if you ever need lawn gnome advice, one or two is okay depending on the size of your yard. Four is pushing the limit a little bit..

This has been another incredible post from Shannon and Alan. Join us next time for advice on wooden ducks. :)

Opening Ceremonies in Beijing

I discovered something this week. Chinese people have a lot of time on they're hands. Did you see that stuff they did!? All those peeps under the boxes and stuff... purdy crazy

The Chinese have been known to do things that people never even considered. They DID invent fireworks, after all... Um... We need something more exciting to blog about..

Yoos... Yoos we do

I just snorted!
