This morning I was talking to my Grandpa while everybody else was asleep.
We started talking about who we were related to and where our descendants came from. I was amazed to find one of my family members from Canada lived to be 101. She also walked hundreds of miles (if I remember correctly) to get to Toronto.
Then I got distracted while sipping my coffee. There are one of those digital picture frames that cycle through photos. At that particular moment, it was a picture of my grandparents on their wedding day. I remembered that Grandpa did not want his car decorated. He told me he remembered handing the keys to his friend and saying "Keep my car safe, don't let anyone do anything to it."
But when they pulled up with his shiny red car, it was stripped in white. I thought it was nice.
Then we started talking about the future. I told him that the only thing I want is to name my daughter Kitty. He sat and thought a moment and said "You should marry a man named Charles Cats."
I didn't get it at first. Then it clicked. Kitty Cats. I was amused.

I, Shu, am a hero!
Recently; my brother, Hunter, bought a Nintendo 64 video game onto the Wii that can be played with a Game Cube remote. It isn't as complicated as it sounds.
Anyway, I've grown addicted... Again.
You see, my late uncle (That means he is dead) used to play it on his Nintendo 64 before he gave it to us. I don't think he ever finished the game, but we misplaced the entire system or something, but now that we have it again, I have been determined to finish it with some help.
Before I get too far ahead of myself, this is The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time!
The whole basic idea or purpose of this game is to defeat the evil Ganondorf and save Hyrule.
You start out as a child of the mere age of 11 when you finally gain a fairy, Navi, and go on your first adventure into the Great Deku Tree. Sadly, at the end, the tree dies. Then you travel to Hyrule where you meet Princess Zelda. She teaches you a song on your Ocarina.
These songs are required to help you on your future missions and what not.
After a few more missions Zelda escapes with her Nanny to safety and you get beat down by Ganondorf while he is out to capture her. I have yet to find out if she lives or not. Then, because you are too young to wield some sword, your soul gets encased at the Temple of Time for 7 years.
When you return the world is in chaos. The world gets dark around the castle, there are evil plants in your home village, and these undead things are in the Hyrule village. But the one good thing is you gain a faster way of transportation. You run to Lon Lon Ranch and you race a horse that was born to be yours or something and you basically cheat it out of this evil man, which... He kinda deserved. But eureka! You have Epona.
Anyway, the first mission was to save your own home, which was a pain in the butt. But we eventually did and everything there is back to normal.
Once you save that area, you talk to a old friend from when you were 11 and they make it all dramatic to the point its like "Saria will always be... Your friend...". I found that a bit dumb... at that point, I just saw a bunch of nerds, with no life, sitting around a computer creating this game. I laughed.
But once you finish talking to her, you are transferred back to the Great Deku Tree's corpse where a fat sprout is born. There you are told that your character is not from the forest, but from the castle or something. Poor orphan.
But that's about it.
I'm an addicted hero.
