It's almost summer! Huzzah!

Let's hope we get some more activity here, huh? Everyone's busy, I'm sure, but still, the blog's going through a slump again. Ho hum.

I just saw Indiana Jones 4 today. Hecka fun movie there. A great way to start the summer movie season.

Anyway, when do you all get summer break? Mine starts in the first week of June.

Well, that's all for now! *disappears*

Hey there, Herr family members!

It's been, uh... ages since the last post. Thought I'd post something now.
..............

Not much to say. Oh well. Let's hope there are still some active members of the family that will actually keep this blog somewhat alive! XD

Uh, yeah, my dad's birthday is the 3rd of April, for those who tend to forget their family member's birthdays (I'm one of them). Mine is the 19th.

That's all. *disappears in puff of smoke*

To those who still visit the Fam Fam blog:

We really should keep this thing going because it's really great knowing what is going on in each other's live. I know, I should be talking because I haven't been posting lately either, but we should try! I luckily finished my college applications, one of the many reasons why I haven't been on here more. And I am looking forward to Christmas vacation so that I can have a break from school. How is everything going on with everyone else? Post!

With lots of love =D,

Today I woke up and went to school. Nothing much really happened after that. I went to the orthodontist to get my retainer checked up on. Hmm..Oh yeah my dad fixed a flat tire on my car this morning so now I have to go to WalMart to get it dealt with. It think that's it.

Anyways now that I have it, I can video chat straight from it because it has a built-in camera and microphone. I think I can use AIM to video chat, but if you guys like skype I have to download it.

Hi everyone!! I know it's been forever but I never realized how much time homework takes up especially when you spend half the time avoiding it. Anyways right now I am only finding time to write this because I am avoiding studying for a test that I really don't want to take tomorrow. But I promise that eventually I will post Halloween pictures and others when time permits. But what you have to learn about me is that I will always follow through with what I say, though it may take a couple hundred years, it'll happen eventually. But life is flying past me because in a week and a half the whole Ronquillo family and Lila will all be in Massachusetts with the Bells celebrating Thanksgiving. Now if we could get the whole family there well that would be the best thing ever, but we can only ask for so much. Anyways I'm so excited to see all of the Bells again since it's been three months since I saw them, but what I am most excited about is seeing my mom see Auntie Kathleen for the first time in many many many moons. Anyway, I believe it is time to start studying. Hope see some of you soon, I know I'll see others even sooner. Okie Dokie I am now finished, umm, well, I guess that's it.

NANOWRIMO!!!

2006-11-01T10:20:00.000-08:00

Okay, NaNoWriMo has just begun today!

What is NaNoWriMo? It's the National Novel Writing Month. That "month" is November!
The goal is to write a 50,000 word novel by the end of the month. What's the prize? Nothing! No one wins, no one loses. It's just that when you're done, you can go to sleep saying to yourself, "Hey, I wrote a book!"

If you have an idea, it's not too late to sign up!

Hi everyone, I am just recognizing this is the 6th anniversary of my mom's death. Maria Elizabeth Burkhalter Ruyle was a great woman, an amazing mother, a woderful husband and an extra-ordinary daughter/aunt/sister. Today, let us all mourn for the loss of her but rejoice that she is in a better place now. I love you mom and i think about you every day but especially today. I just want her loved ones to take a moment and think aboutthe most amazing mother ever.
love, Jimmy

Thanks!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!

They brought back the Disney 2-D Animation Studios!!! Right now, in production, three Disney movies are in production. One is American Dog, which is a computer-animated movie, after that is a movie called "Rapunzel Unbraided," which is also 3-D, but it has musical numbers! Just like in the old Disney movies! And finally, The Frog Princess is a 2-D animated movie, with musical numbers! Yup, Disney is back in full force. It's in pre-production as of now, and the script is expected to be fininshed in fall of this year. Ron Clements and John Musker, the same guys who did Aladdin and The Little Mermaid, return for this film, and Alan Menken does the score! Yup, it may be a long wait, but at least we got our 2-D back!

Today was my last day of freedom. Tomorrow I go back to school for another nine months. Today was picture day and this is my new school I.D. I can't believe I'm a junior. Time goes by too fast. Anyway I have to get my stuff together. Wish me luck for this new school year.

Lagging Behind...

2006-08-08T10:06:00.000-07:00

Hey.

Hate to say it, but I'm lagging behind on Super Donald. I want to finish another comic right now, and I'm pretty lazy, I prefer spending hours drawing dragons and chibi people with big swords than drawing comics. I've actually been working on this comic for about 8 months now.... (shameshameshame) But as soon as I'm done I'll work on Super Donald.

Yeah. See ya later.

In Chicago!

2006-08-07T14:06:00.000-07:00

So I'm in Chicago now. The air has a faint smell of brownie batter. I don't know if that's the smell of decomposing trash or the Chicago air, or simply, the smell of brownie batter. Hmmm. I don't know.

Last night we went to a Brazilian steak place where it's like a buffet, except the food comes to you. The waiters bring you different cuts of meat and you can pick and choose what you want. The filet mignon was definitely my favorite. Of course it may be the only time that I have filet mignon... Check it out: www.fogodechao.com Expensive, but tasty. Thanks expense account!

Today I have been running around the hotel doing various go-for chores. Not bad... but moving books is tiring, especially when boxes can weigh up to forty pounds. We have the opening reception tonight, and sessions will start tomorrow....

Bye for now from the not-so-windy city.

2006-08-04T15:19:00.000-07:00

Here's the movie we made when Stephie was here.

We found a letter lying on the ground when we were walking around the park, so we turned it into a musical. It weirdly took forever to compress, but I'm going to figure out what happened then get it into better formats and see if I can get it onto YouTube etc just in case it doesn't work for folks.

I leave for Chicago on Sunday. It's my first "real" business trip. Real because the company is going to pay for everything. Business because I will be everyone's gopher. Running around making copies and getting presentations from Powerpoint slides to projector presentations, and smiling all the while. Although, I was told that the crazy old guy who is the publisher of biology books, the list I oversee, said that the flyers I made for sales packets was "super". According to my boss that's supposed to be a big compliment. Anyway... I'm going to Chicago. Let me know if there are any special requests. It won't be like I'm on vacation, but I am bringing my camera with me, just in case there are interesting things or people to capture and laugh at later on in life.

Stephie said that she would Clean Sweep my room. I guess I need to. Haha.

Hello. That's all I ever say...

2006-07-30T09:57:00.000-07:00

Hey. Did you ever stop and think about these complicated questions?

Why do we drive in parkways, and park in driveways?

What does cheese when you take a picture of it? "Human?"

Do geese get people bumps?

Why do feet smell and noses run?

Answer that, but first, did you know.....

It's polite to arrive 15 minutes late to parties in India.

When in Portugal, stick the tip of your index finger in your ear, and kiss it, if you enjoyed you meal.

AND NEVER MOP YOUR PASTA SAUCE UP WITH BREAD IN ITALY!!! It only seems natural to do so, since it's yummy, but you shouldn't. They're very touchy about they're cooking.

The lowest sound ever recorded was the sound of a "singing" black hole.

Yup.

And one more kinda gross thing. We all know that if you drop a bannanna on the floor, it'll get bruised (and you probably won't want to eat it anymore...).

Well we all know that if you punch someone in the arm, it'll get bruised, and the same goes for a bannanna! I have this wrong image in my head of a good bannanna, not bruised, being punched, and then a bruise appears! I know it's not that bad, but....

Whatever. Seeya!

Hey.

2006-07-28T13:59:00.000-07:00

Hey! Just wanna tell you all that I'm in production for a comic series, to be published on this very blog for your enjoyment, called Super Donald. This was an idea put into my head when I drew Stephie a picture of Donald Duck in a superhero costume, with his sidekicks, Sora and Goofy. I hope to have at least one comic put on the blog every month, depends on wether or not I get lazy.

Luvvers--

P.S. If ya'll don't know who Sora is-- and I know Stephie and the rest of us here in New Bedford do-- then click HERE.

So I'm Back at Home in Fremont and glad to be back but I REALLY miss the Bells a lot. They had grown to be my family away from my family, my home away from home. This vacation has inspired me to start planning our Fam Fam Cuz Club Reunion. When will this be? I have no idea but less than nine years I promise. It will happen.

Family forever.

Man, I miss the days of TGIF on ABC. Those were the days when TV was still decent. Sitcom TV. Urkel. Michelle Tanner. The "new" Brady Bunch. Of course, only a handful of my cousins probably even remember those days. Wow. I make myself sound old. Ok. The end.
