So a year ago, October 27, I asked this girl out and she said yes. I was really happy cause I liked her a lot. 5 days later, Halloween 2008, we had our first kiss.

January of this year, we broke up. I kinda still like her, not much though. What is she doing this year? She's on some vacation on California, having the time of her life with her new boyfriend. What am I doing this year? Nothing, and oh yeah, it's my last high school year.

Fuck my life.

…

I'm bored, lets discuss name changes:

dabridge255 - I actually made a blog about how I got this username a while ago, but eh, I deleted it. It matched the dates of back when I was a noob so it had to be destroyed.

So liek, 500 years ago (when I was 11 probably), I heard from a friend of mine (who stole $100 worth of games from me before I found out years later) that there was this cool new game called "Def Jam Vendetta." Maybe you've heard of it, it's a bunch of hip hop artists fighting in a wrestling type game. Naturally, being a growing boy, the violence was just so intruiging. It automatically became my favorite game for years. About a year later actually, I tried to make… something. It was a website I think. So there I was, in front of a computer trying to come up with a name.

In the game, "Def Jam Vendetta," grammar doesn't apply (spelling is not cool for hip hop artists), so there was a favorite stage I had (because… I think it was the only one because the guy I was playing it with never unlocked other levels). Guess the name of the stage? Oh, gee, I wonder what it could be… *dun dun dun* Da Bridge! So I think of this name, try to put it in on the website making thing (which I think was freewebs). Doesn't work? "dabridge" is already taken? Crap… but I'm thinking, "this name is genious!" so I tried to not change it much. At the time, I was obssesed with Pokemon (actually still am). Not the crappy anime, the games. They are just brilliant… Anyway, I had just found the Missigno. cheat on Pokemon Red and Blue, and I was ready to feed my level 156 Mewtwo all the rare candies I had to make him level 1000. Well, it turns out the limit is 255. This also automatically turns into my favorite number for a while. So I merge these two together… dabridge255!

Yeah, I start using this for everything after a while. After I realise it's stupid as hell, it's too late for me to change because that's what I'm known as. I try anyway:

dabridge - This name doesn't have anything special… it's basically my attempt to make the original dabridge255 look less stupid without completely changing it. Next attempt:

Mastermind - This name also originated from a game (ironically made by EA Sports as well). It was a name I picked from a list of names the announcer said once in a while.

Mast3rmind - An attempt at originality once again. After a simple Google search, I find out that the name "Mastermind" is more used than a prostitute. I was trying to be 1337 with my name but it didn't work. haha

val3n - Took something personal of mine (last name) and added 1337 to it. Apparently also used, so I changed it.

One thing to note though, I went through a lot of crap in this name change:

- Decided not to change anymore my name (didn't work)

- Matured a hell of a lot

- Asked to get banned from 64D (spent too much time here)

- Created a bunch of art and games (none displayed)

Oh yeah, "Valen" isn't my last name. It's part of it. And well, it's not even my last name. It's from my mom's side of the family.

reidd - Not much is known about this name change. I actually didn't have it for too long. However, I've been using it… a lot. Pretty much to anything I sign up to not game maker related. I'll explain at a later blog if I remember, cause it's no fun if I just say all of it, is it?
