Hey, I’m Nate, and this is my blog. Now, I’m not a huge blogger, and I’m trying to adjust. I’m use to Facebook, so this is very different. Anyway, this blog is my personal one, full of all the crap you can find on this wonderful thing called the Internet (thanks a lot Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and those guys at IBM). Anyway, you can follow if you want, but only if you want random crap clogging up your…Newsfeed? No, that’s Facebook…what is it here? Oh, Dashboard, right. Anyway, so yeah, follow if you want.

So, today, either dream about birthdays to come, or about past birthdays, what made it great, the perfect gift, or write fictional about a character&#8217;s birthday, and something that happens. Perhaps the ninjas decided to attack Johnny as he played in the ball put at his own birthday party?</p>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16850880349http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16850880349Tue, 31 Jan 2012 22:52:18 -0500<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/tnvMrnxqYdQ/">Watch And Share The State Of The Union, Thanks to SnappyTV</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453415968http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453415968Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:44:29 -0500<a href="http://www.macworld.com/article/164979/2012/01/this_is_tim_apples_ceo_in_his_own_words.html">Cook on iCloud</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453406027http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453406027Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:44:13 -0500<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Mashable/~3/3SSaOYUcMss/">Facebook Timeline-ageddon: Why Now?</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453399174http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453399174Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:44:02 -0500<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/cultofmac/bFow/~3/K5Ykr2cwSWs/story01.htm">Apple To Talk About “Exciting New Things” At Town Hall Meeting Tomorrow</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453369433http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453369433Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:43:15 -0500<a href="http://www.theverge.com/2012/1/24/2731121/xbox-next-autumn-2013-radeon-6670-ign">Next Xbox coming late 2013 with Radeon 6000 GPU?</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453358880http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453358880Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:42:58 -0500<a href="http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/gizmodo/vip/~3/CXJUDWIx1v4/this-indiana-jones-ring-is-worth-way-more-than-any-golden-idol">This Indiana Jones Ring Is Worth Way More Than Any Golden Idol [Wtf]</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453346540http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453346540Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:42:39 -0500<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Mashable/~3/WAiYOTMR0VU/">Bill Gates Recalls Final Talks With Steve Jobs</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453327640http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453327640Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:42:09 -0500<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/cultofmac/bFow/~3/b9urKPG_ZD4/story01.htm">There Are More iPhones Sold Every Day Than Babies Born</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453318680http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453318680Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:41:54 -0500<a href="http://feeds.nytimes.com/click.phdo?i=68fe0d2ad531319ab42c2ebde2d65044">Text: State of the Union Address — 2012 — Transcript</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453306145http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/16453306145Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:41:35 -0500<a href="http://feeds.nytimes.com/click.phdo?i=bc4dfc5828a0dc535f50ee41ccbb56af">In Health Dept.

Okay, so this is perfect because it actually happened to me today. Got called to the principal&#8217;s office, and, like everyone else, I automatically assume the worst and try to remember every possible thing that I could be in trouble for. It wasn&#8217;t bad, they just had to give me a form, but I thought that was a pretty good topic, the fear of the unknown, and the tendency to jump to conclusions and think the worst. Anyway, try having the fear of the unknown and expecting the worst in a story, the character freaks out and everything. Remember, writing is an expression of personal emotion; we are all our characters in one way or another, so definitely allow for any personal experience with this to influence your writing. Have fun!</p>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/15761619216http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/15761619216Thu, 12 Jan 2012 23:39:26 -0500writing promptsNaNoWriMowritingwritebookspoemspoetryjournalismjournalistjournalstorybookcontests<a href="http://www.writeoncommand.tumbler.com">If you like any form of written scripture...</a>http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/15582137057http://grtgbln.tumblr.com/post/15582137057Mon, 09 Jan 2012 16:39:59 -0500
