My mother was a caterpillar, my father was a worm. But I’m okay with that now.-Khalil from VeggieTales’ Jonah
I’m currently watching Jonah as I type this. I’m almost 20 years old and I am still a die-hard VeggieTales fan. Ah man, if I could work for Big Idea’s one day that would be so incredibly amazing. Like, not doing the computer graphics and stuff, because I have no idea how to do that, but I’m talking writing the stuff. I would love to work with a writing team like that. Cheesey, corney, and bringing Bible stories to life for little (or older) kids-what could be better??? 
Anyways….lets see…what has been going on the past 2 days of my life..hmmm….well, on Friday, I almost slept through my test. :O chyea! i know! I can’t believe I did that too. I totally slept through my alarm clock (I think I must have turned it off) and woke up at 9:37; my test was at 10. My mom called me like 5 minutes later asking me about some stuff, and I was like, ‘I just woke up. I gotta run to my exam. Can I call u afterwards?’ of course she said yea thats fine, and I booked it to class, barely making it there by 10. I think I did a normally what takes 15 min. walk in like 8 minutes. But I took it-I’m not sure how I did-but I took it.
So then yesterday afternoon, I convinced Davina to go to some thrift stores with me. We hit up Abbeygails’ Closet and filled up a bag of clothes and shoes for $20. Caroline & her friend randomly showed up, and they help us fill the bag, well, they helped Davina fill the bag, since I didn’t see anything that I wanted, but it was still a pretty sweet deal. We also went to Bargin Box and Cause For Paws, but we didn’t buy anything in either one of those places. Although, the Cause For Paws did have a pretty sweet guitar. It was a mini-guitar, have no idea what they are called, but its 1/2 the frets of a normal guitar. Just playing it-it was soo much easier than mine. And soo cute! But I didn’t get it. No $$ do I have. Oh well.
Later that night, I went and watched Davina, Paulina, and Levi audition for the Pack Idol here on campus-our own version of American Idol. It was fun. They all did good. I’m proud of them-but there was no way I was auditioning no matter how much Davina & Paulina pleaded with me. Sorry girls. =P
After being woken up today at 11am by my mom, I went to eat lunch with her, dad, and my aunt & uncle. We went to this amazing place that just happens to be like a block and 1/2 from where I live and I’ve never heard of it or been there before. Red Hot & Blue. Talk about some goooooood-i mean amazingly goooood-beef brisket. I got what they call their Ribwhich Platter-any choice of sandwhich, ribs, & a side. A texas beef brisket, fries, wet ribs, a side of slaw, and 2 mini-pitchers (thats what they used for cups!!-mini pitchers) of sweet tea later, i was stuffed!! Oh, how I miss cooking like that. If I ever go on an actual date, I definetely would not mind going there. Its not too terribly expensive either. For two people, I’m thinking it’d be about $25-30, and you get a LOT of food. I have 3 ribs sitting downstairs waiting to be eaten tomorrow-I would have eaten them tonight, but I decided to savor what I already ate today and savor it somemore tomorrow for lunch. hehe.
After lunch, we went to Costco and I bought myself this thing to teach myself German. For like $6. And guess what?? I can put it on my iPod! I’m excited! I’ve always wanted to learn German, especially since I really really want to go there one day, so this is just a starting jump towards that goal. We also went to this country store that my mom wanted to go to, and inside they had all these signs. My dad and I started laughing so hysterically at them that I just had to take pics and post them up here. Mom just gave us weird looks the entire time, but they were hilarious!
hahaha. see! they are funny!
For the rest of the night, I’ve just chilled here at my house. I went and rented Balls of Fury and Sydney White at the red box things at Harris Teeter. Balls of Fury was not funny in any way whatsoever, which surprised me, because I usually like that kind of humor, but this movie just sucked! As for Sydney White-really corney and cute! 
I’m an Amanda Bynes fan, so I tend to like her movies even if they are really cheesey.
We’ll I’m going to end this w. some lyrics from this movie. Enjoy.
This is the song that runs under the credits
These are the credits, so this is where it goes
Has nothing to do with the movie so we’ll say
Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey hey hey There once was a song, that ran under the credits
That went with the movie, but this is not that song
Has nothing to do with the movie so we’ll say
Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Wouldn’t it be nice if the song under the credits,
Had something to do with the movie you just saw
But that’s not the case so for now we’ll have to say
Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey hey hey
There should be a rule that the song under the credits
Remotely pertains to the movie’s basic plot
That rule has not been made so for now we’ll have to say
Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey hey hey

The blotchy spots that appear when you use the Auto mode which is not visible is actually from the noise that occur when the camera increases its ISO setting i.e. the light sensitivity of the sensor inside the camera.
Auto Mode: The camera automatically increases the ISO which causes more grain (which you called blotch) in the photo. This is more apparent in darker areas.
Program Mode: The camera sticks to your preset ISO setting which usually the lowest ISO200 or ISO100 depends on camera models.
In other words more ISO more noise, grain or blotch as yo called it and less ISO gives less noise. I hope my explanation helps you and nor confuse you more.
Please refer to my posting here for more details:
