Hot Dog
When it comes to canines, I have a lot of things I judge for a given dog’s merit. One thing I always “joke” about (or maybe I am not) is how effective a dog would be in saving someone’s life in a fire.
On a scale of one to five 
, with one meaning the dog would leave you to die and five meaning the dog would heroically pull you out of the scorching inferno and revive you with their puppy breath, it’s time I gave the two dogs I live with their respective ratings.
Fresh from his grooming, there is Tramper, the Yorkie.
- He is an old puppy at 12+ years of age.
- He is a lapdog by the definition.
- Can be deceptively adorable and gives the sad-pathetic-puppy-dog eye stare with his tongue jutting out.
- Extremely loyal to “his mommy.”
- Super bossy and likes to “bully” people for treats.
- Frightened by the treadmill.
- Very yappy.
- Can hold grudges with people who bother him.
- Has a habit of bringing his kibble to the living room and dropping it on the floor to get “credit” for a treat.
- Doesn’t take crap from other animals, but is easily intimidated by a human scolding him. Read the rest of this entry »
Pet Peeve: Littering
PICK IT UP!
I don’t care who you think you are: no one is too good to throw away their own trash. I do not even count myself as an environmentalist or anything of that sort. I just think litterbugs are extremely lazy people. Read the rest of this entry »
Abide by the Vibe: Free Yourself
“We all abide by the vibe we create for ourselves.”
What fuels your actions and thoughts? Are you being helped or hindered by your vibe?
We are all prone to letting everything affect our vibe in some fashion.
It can be a good thing. And just as easily, things can go south and turn vile at the drop of a dime.
“We all abide by the vibe we create for ourselves.”
But ultimately, you, individually, have the most influence on how your vibe shapes itself, day in and day out.
For far too long, I have allowed myself to be shackled, restrained and limited by my own vibe. I allowed my fears and negative thoughts to anchor my passions and potential in place, when in reality I am capable of so much more when I just give myself a chance.
But starting now, right this instance, I want this all to stop. No more! No longer shall I be confined and trapped by own mental barriers. This imprisonment of my spirit and zeal has run its course.
It is time I set myself free.

Showstopper: Kitchen Nightmares
Nhan-Fiction Note: As described in yesterday’s post, I am attempting to make each day of the week have some kind of “scheduled” post theme to go along with the other random stuff I post. For today, I will be starting the Showstopper series for Wednesday.
I watch all kinds of different shows, so I guess it is good that I talk about some of the things I like. Also, please note that some of the videos shown below do contain swearing. Just for your information.

Gordon Ramsay is my favorite celebrity chef in the world. I will always take his word when it comes to the culinary arts.
I also am a huge fan of one of his signature shows called Kitchen Nightmares. I have seen every episode for both the UK and American versions of the TV program. There is something about restaurants that appeal to me. I have always been fascinated by the inner workings of the food service industry, from how the servers take your order to how a restaurant’s kitchen service “line“ is set up to create (hopefully) tasty dishes for the customers.
The premise of Kitchen Nightmares, of course, involves Ramsay checking out a failing restaurant to analyze and devise a plan of attack at saving the business.
The show follows a consistent structure in most cases: a restaurant is drowning in debt and is in need of dire help, Ramsay comes into the restaurant and starts to pick apart the restaurant’s shortcomings (bad food, hideous decor, inept management and so forth), Ramsay has to convince the owner(s) of the failing restaurant to change, the relaunch/restaurant renovation occurs next and then everything (presumably) looks like the given restaurant is back on track toward success.

Be Yourself
Nhan-Fiction Note: I added an “o” to the word “too” because it was bothering me too much.
Fluttery Part 3
It has been a mix of anxiousness and a lot of excitement as I eagerly wait for elements of Sylphie, the Butterfly Faerie, to finish up. My method for making custom champions for “League of Legends” takes awhile because of the complicated aspects.
I do not like to rush these projects if I cannot help it. I wrote a post on LoL Wiki that asked for more contributors, but unfortunately not many people really seemed interested in pinching in toward Sylphie’s concept.
Nonetheless, I was not really discouraged because I do in fact have a folder on my desktop, which is filled with random Sylphie things for the world to see in due course.
Decide the Tide

Something Fishy
Over the past few weeks, I have been finding new champs to take up slots for a revised, Fantastic 15. In “League of Legends,” it is always a good idea to have a few “go to” champions to call upon for a given role.
For the support slot, I have been playing a lot of Nami, the Tidecaller, in normal games as practice. Nami was actually a gift from Riot Games for me, and I recently have developed a liking for the mer-mage’s capabilities. She can make a splash in games in her own ways, BUT there is a key point to consider: other support champs like Thresh are still better than her.
