Even though the week is still young, quite a few things have happened already:
First of my boss; the one in Gamestop; got a transfer to another store in his hometown. That means he doesn’t have to spend an hour each way each day for work, which is pretty neat. Sadly it also means that I wont see him very often anymore, as he is actually an awesome guy (Yes a store manager at Gamestop even can actually be awesome and be considered a friend, this isn’t America). But it also means that the manager position at our store had to be filled. This was given to none other than my best friend, which he have wanted for quite some time now, so big celebration is indeed in order 🙂
This also means we can go onwards with our plans of finding an apartment we can share, which is great. I am looking very much forward to that myself, and I’m sure he is to.
Secondly we had to turn in our project at school, our exam projects in media class. I had the fortune to be in a group with my brother and a girl called Kris, both of them are unlike many in the class pretty dependable and focused when we have important stuff ahead of us. For our project we choose to do a remake of the classic Charlie Chaplin “A Beautiful Sunday Morning”. Funny thing was our project began on Chaplins 138th birthday I think it was.
Our remake is not meant to be exactly the same, but have the overall idea of the first, in a more modern setting, with some of the classic tidbits here and there. Also we kept the music the same, and we filmed it in black & white and made it a silent film too. Overall, it received some pretty good feedback, and we will have to see how we fare if this turns out to be and exam class.
In the role of the angry boss is my brother, behind the camera Kris and in the role that Chaplin played, I star. 🙂

Let me know what you think ^^
Also, I’ve finally pulled myself together to start sorting out all my Pokémon cards, which is great… But dang it theres a good bunch. So far I’ve reached sorted out Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and currently working on Sinnoh. Trainers and energy cards were sorted out too. Once I’m done it will be good, the folders are going to be a blessing for my order. All i need now is to finish Sinnoh and Unova plus find some way to sort out all the coins, battlemats and stuff. Probably have to buy yet another folder for those. Just as a quick note, the Pokémons themselves I am sorting by their regional numbering ie. Bulbasaur 001, Ivysaur 002…
It helped a lot that I was watching quite a few episodes of the Indigo League/First Season of Pokémon while I was sorting. I’m only 14 episodes short of completing it now, and then moving on to the next season.
