The First Day of School

Well, today was the first day of school, and to me, it was just as boring as any other day of school, except it's much easier and you don't do that much work or no work at all. There was early dismissal today(and also tomorrow) and it's at 12:00 p.m., the normal dismissal time is 2:10 p.m. This year, our high school started using a new block schedule, which is a schedule where you get half of your classes one day that are over an hour long and go to the other half of classes the next day, and they are the same time as the first half of classes. I don't really like this whole new schedule, the classes are way too long, and even though we had early dismissal, the classes felt like they normally did, because they were 45 minutes long. I will be able to cope with this new schedule, but it might get boring, the only good thing about it is that the day will feel shorter since you only go to half of your classes in one day instead of going to all of them.

School Tomorrow

Well, we just found out that there will be school tomorrow. When we got the call, I thought it was going to announce that school was closed tomorrow, because that's why they call, they rarely call to tell us that there will be school. Since school officially starts tomorrow, you will now see my posts in the afternoon instead of night because I use my computer a couple hours after I come home from school, which is at 2:10 p.m. However, I will continue to post at night on Friday and Saturday since they're not school nights. Also, I know I haven't posted a Kingdom Hearts post in a while, but one will come soon, it probably won't tomorrow because I might write about the first day of school, but it might come the next day, so make sure you check back everyday.

You Won't Believe This

As the title says, you really won't believe this. You all know that the hurricane is gone now, but for some weird reason, we lost power yesterday evening and it didn't come back on until late last night, that's why I didn't post anything yesterday. I thought it was very weird that we lost power, but we later found out that it might of been caused from the workers shutting down the power to fix the power of other people. We are not completely sure that's the reason, but it's a possibility. There was also no school today either, I don't know when they will open school, it might be tomorrow, but school might get closed again tomorrow, which would be really great.

Hurricane Aftermath

We had the hurricane earlier today, and to be honest, it wasn't that bad at all when it reached Connecticut, it actually downgraded to a tropical storm early this morning. All we had here in New Milford was a lot of rain and wind, the wind was strong, but not strong enough as it was when it hit other states. We didn't even lose our power at all, so all the time we spent filling up bottles of water went to waste. There were some people in New Milford that lost power, but we weren't one of them. The good news about this is that there will be no school tomorrow due to some fallen trees and power outages. School might even get canceled on Tuesday too, I hope it does, I'm glad it got canceled tomorrow, but if it does on Tuesday, it would be even cooler.

Hurricane Irene

Hey guys, I know I mentioned in yesterday's post that I was going to post something Kingdom Hearts related today, but I don't have that much to say about Kingdom Hearts today since I couldn't play any games. The reason is because of Hurricane Irene. I spent most of today getting ready for when it reaches New Milford, which is where I live. I spent a couple hours bringing in some furniture that was on our deck and some other things that will be blown from the wind(trampoline, basketball hoop, etc.). The hurricane is expected to strike Connecticut sometime tomorrow, so it was best that we got everything ready today just in case it knocks out the power. We already filled up many bottles with water since we won't have running water if the power goes out. If there is too much damage, there won't be any school on Monday, and Monday is the first day of school. Don't be surprised if you don't see any new posts tomorrow, because I won't be able to do it with no power. The only thing I'm looking forward to with this hurricane is that it might cancel school on Monday or more days of the week.

How My Birthday Went

Today wasn't that bad, but we couldn't really do anything for my birthday since both my parents were working today, but today was still a good day. When I woke up this morning, I got some emails from Facebook about a lot of friends wishing me a happy birthday. As of right now, over 30 friends wished me a happy birthday on Facebook. I will soon work on getting my learner's permit and later my driver's license. Tomorrow I will post something about Kingdom Hearts, and starting next week, I might not be able to post at night anymore, maybe only during the afternoon since I will be going back to school and I won't have time to use my computer at night anymore, only during the afternoon when I come home.

My 16th Birthday

I just wanted to make a quick little post to let you all know that today is my 16th birthday. I'll post something else later tonight.

First Time This Has Happened In a While

I actually went through the whole day without playing a Kingdom Hearts game. I know it sounds nerdy, but I just enjoy playing the games in the series, they are very fun to play. The only times I don't play Kingdom Hearts games in a day is when I go somewhere for the day(or longer if on vacation) or when I don't feel like playing them(which doesn't happen a lot). I was busy today, so I didn't really have the time to play any video game today. I've spent most of my time getting ready for the first day of school, which is on Monday, unless Hurricane Irene does some bad damage and the school is forced to change the first day to a later date, which I hope happens.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

Well, here is a game I haven't played in a while, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, which is a really good game for the Nintendo DS. I didn't play this game in a while because the DS Lite I had was messed up and some of the buttons didn't work anymore, so I stopped playing 358/2 Days since I wasn't able to use some of the controls. Since I have the 3DS now, I decided to try 358/2 Days again since I didn't play it in like 4 or 5 months. I started a new game in another file because I didn't want to erase my first saved file that has almost everything done. I started the new file because I wanted to learn all the controls again and to play all the missions again like it's my first time playing the game. Believe it or not, this game is actually easier to play on the 3DS thanks to the new circular pad/analog stick. I didn't think that the circular pad was going to work with this game, but I tried, and it actually does work, it makes it a lot easier to run around instead of using the D-Pad, the D-pad makes it harder. This game is now the 5th one I'm currently playing, along with Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories(Japanese), and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.

East Coast Earthquake

I know this is not at all related to Kingdom Hearts, but I still think it's important to be posted here. If you didn't already know, there was an earthquake earlier today in Virginia that shook nearly the whole East Coast. It spread to where I live, which is Connecticut, but for some odd reason, I didn't feel the earthquake at all. The earthquake made it's way past Connecticut all the way to Maine, but I think it missed the town where I live. I find that very weird, especially since my dad even felt it when he was at work, and his job is only like 1 city away from where we live. We never really get earthquakes here in the East Coast, especially in the Northeast part of the U.S., this one might of been the first one in years. I don't think we will get another one for a long time.

Sephiroth

When I played Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix today, I decided to face Sephiroth, and I beat him. He isn't hard if you have the right weapon, the right abilities, and if you're on a good enough level. I don't know if I mentioned this before, but I finally got the Ultima Weapon a few days ago, and it definitely is the best weapon in the whole game. I didn't really have a problem facing Sephiroth with the Ultima Weapon. The most annoying thing about that battle was when Sephiroth kept using his firewall attack, but if you have the final mix version, just equip the ability "Leaf Bracer," which will make you immune to damage while you're casting cure on yourself, and it's only available in the final mix version of Kingdom Hearts. His worst attack is the one that will leave you with 0 MP and only 1 HP, it's the one when he says "Descend, Heartless Angel," most people think he says "Sin Harvest," but I think he says "Descend, Heartless Angel." It's easier to hear him say it in Kingdom Hearts 2/Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix. Anyway, I almost got killed when he used that attack, but just right before he was going to attack me and kill me, I was able to use an Elixir, I was like 1/3 of a second away from dying. Below is an image of Sephiroth, he has a very long sword.

Visiting the Worlds Again

I'm at the point in Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix where you go to each world again and complete them again for the final time. I'm already used to everything since I beat the game 3 times, but on different difficulties. I still watch most of the cutscenes because I like a lot of them. I'm glad they included Theater Mode in this game, I watch a lot of the cutscenes again, the one I watched most was the secret ending, which was just amazing, it was pretty much a Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep teaser. Anyway, I'm about to start in The Land Of The Dragons next, it will be easy.

I'm Sorry

Hey guys, I just wanted to make a quick little post here to apologize to you guys for not posting anything yesterday. I was really busy and I didn't have the time to edit the blog. School is going to start in like a week so you will start to see some new posts a little earlier than usual. I will post again later tonight.

I Got The 3DS

Earlier today, I finally got the new Nintendo 3DS, but I didn't use it yet. I wanted to charge it fully first before I use it because charging it before using it will increase the life of the battery. It's been charging for almost an hour now and I don't know when it will finish. At least now I won't have to play the original Nintendo DS games on my old DS lite, I can play them on the 3DS now. I can also go buy some new games for it, but I don't know what games to get, but the obvious one I'm waiting for is Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. I hope a confirmed release date comes out for it soon.

Quest For The Ultima Weapon

Right now in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, I'm just working on getting all the synthesis items, the main one I'm focusing on is the Ultima Weapon, which is the best keyblade in the whole game. Although the ingredients to synthesize them are in Japanese, I have a translation guide, so I know what I need to synthesize them. Once I get this keyblade, I will attempt to face Sephiroth in the Olympus Coliseum. If you don't already know, he is a lot harder in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix than in the original Kingdom Hearts, especially in proud mode. I'm already at level 84 so I should have no problem facing him, but I just want to make sure I can beat him, and it would be a lot easier with the Ultima Weapon. An image of the Ultima weapon is posted below.

Tokyo Game Show 2011

If you didn't know, there will be a video game expo in Tokyo next month called Tokyo Game Show 2011. The game I'm most looking forward to seeing there is, of course, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. Since there hasn't been that much news about that game recently(except for the news last month), lots of new info about the game is supposed to be revealed there. If I can, I would go to Tokyo myself and go to the expo. A Kingdom Hearts 3D demo will be playable there, the people at the Tokyo Game Show are so lucky they get to try out the game, but it shouldn't be too long until we get to buy the games ourselves because the new expected release date for it is 2012.

New Intro For YouTube Videos

I just created a new intro for my YouTube videos. It says "Khupdater.webs.com" on it and below that it says "Your Source For All KH Info" I think it looks very cool. I would put it on here to show all of you, but I don't think you're able to put videos on your posts, so make sure you keep a lookout for my new intro in my next YouTube video, it looks very cool. And if you don't know, my YouTube channel is: kingskater4.

Website Updated

I just finished updating my other website: khupdater.webs.com, it's now redesigned and has new additions to it, make sure you go check it out when you have time. One of the cool new features is Twitter Integration, so now you can Tweet right from my website.

Ads

Some of you may have noticed all of the ads that are on my blog. I place these ads there myself because I made a new Google Adsense account and I'm hoping to make money with those ads. It would help me out a lot if you guys clicked on some of the ads. I know people hate ads, but I'm not going to fill up the whole blog with ads, I'm just going to put one or two ads per post. I don't really like ads either, but since this will help me make money, I decided to do it. So please check out some of the ads that are posted.

Nintendo 3DS

In a few days or weeks, I will be getting the new Nintendo 3DS. The main reason why I'm getting it is because of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, but there's other reasons too, one obviously being the glasses-free 3D, and the other cool things you will be able to do on it. With the price lowered, I think it will be hard to get one because more people might start buying it now since it will be like $80 less than what it was before, which was $250, now it's $170. I think $250 was way too expensive for it, I expected it to be at least $180. Anyway, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is now expected to be released next year, so I want to have the time to get used to the 3DS and learn all of it's features. When I get it, I'll post another update.

Why I Didn't Post Anything Yesterday

Hey guys, this is just a quick update to let you all know why I didn't post anything yesterday. The reason is because I had to go out of state to go to a special family gathering. It was kind of a special ritual and after the ritual, we all just hung out and talked. We got back home late last night, so I didn't have time to post anything. Because of that, I will post another update later today after this one.

P.S. Please make sure you check out the ads, it would help me a lot if you clicked on some of them.

Leveling Up The Characters

Earlier today, I played Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, and I worked on leveling up the characters. When I finished their stories, they were all at a medium level, not too low and not too high. I worked on leveling up all 3 of them because I wanted to get all 3 of them ready for the secret bosses. Fighting these bosses will be my first attempt with all 3 characters, but I've seen how people have beat them on YouTube and I will follow some of those strategies. I won't keep spamming Tornado during the Vanitas' Sentiment battle though, that will seem boring, I will use other commands like Sonic Blade, Strike Raid, and Mine Square. I will definitely have to be careful because one hit by Vanitas' Sentiment can get you in critical health; the second chance and once more abilities will be hugely helpful in both battles. I also remember that I can't use the Curaga spell when fighting Vanitas' Sentiment because he will also cure himself if you use it, but I know that you have to use normal items to cure yourself. I will post another update in a few days to let you all know how I did.

Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix Nearly Completed

Hello, I would've posted sooner, but Blogspot was undergoing maintenance, so I couldn't post anything until it was done. But the good news is that it's done now, and this is going to be about where I currently am in Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix. Just recently, I got to the part where you're at the final save point about to finish the game, but I didn't do that yet because there was tons of other things to do before I finish the game. I still have to find all the treasure chests, complete all the tournaments, etc. I probably won't attempt to beat the game for a while until I complete everything else. It was a lot easier in Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories, and Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep because you can save data again after beating the game and do everything else after. I'm not sure what post will come next after this one, probably about where I am in Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep.

New YouTube Videos

I just worked on 2 new videos for YouTube today. The first one has new information about Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance and it was uploaded on my main channel. The second video is about the possibility of HD remakes of past Kingdom Hearts games. Make sure you check those out whenever you can. They each took more than an hour to make. This is just a quick update, I will post a longer one tomorrow, I was kinda in a rush to post this update really quick.

The End of The World (Kingdom Hearts)

I'm talking about the world in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, not the Earth. I don't even believe the world will end in 2012 like many others say. Anyway, I just started this world today and it could be a little tough if you're not ready or if you're not at a high enough level. The enemies there are pretty tough, but I managed to beat them, but I'm still going to go to other worlds and try to level up more, mainly Hollow Bastion since that place has the heartless that give you the most EXP. I'm going to post again when I decide to go back to The End Of The World.

Kingdom Heart 3D

I am really waiting to see how this game will be, it already looks good based on the screenshots and trailer that has been released. Some more information will be released during Tokyo Game Show 2011 in September. Lots of Kingdom Hearts 3D info is supposed to be released during that event, maybe even a trailer and some new gameplay.

Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep

I've beaten all 3 stories in this game and completed the final episode, but I still didn't get to fight the secret bosses yet. I never had time to, but I will play Birth By Sleep again soon and see if I will be able to beat Vanitas' Sentiment and the Mysterious Figure, I might need to level up more though. Even after I beat the secret bosses, I will still need to complete the Trinity Archives, I'm going to focus on that after I completed everything else. This game is one of my favorite games in the whole series. I hope it gets remastered for the PS3 like some people were saying.

Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix

I've beaten this game on Beginner, Standard, and Critical, but I'm still currently playing on Proud. When I first got this game, I played it on Beginner because I needed to get used to the Japanese language and all the new features in this game(new bosses, abilities, etc.). After I beat it on Beginner, I decided to do the challenge of playing on Critical Mode, and although it was really tough, I still managed to beat the game on that difficulty. I still had to do other things after beating it on Critical, like the Cavern of Remembrance, the Mushroom Heartless, and the Terra battle. It was a nightmare fighting Terra on this difficulty, especially since you have half the HP you get in the other difficulties, I must've died like 50 times until I finally beat him, but it was worth it. I still play on Critical Mode to fight the Organization XIII data battles. My main focus right now is to finish the game on Proud Mode so I'll finish the game on all difficulties. Even after I finish the game on Proud Mode, I'll still keep playing Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix.

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix

If you read my previous post, then you would know that I didn't finish that game yet since I got it early this year. I just recently finished Hollow Bastion and I'm about to start the End Of The World soon. I'm playing on Proud Mode, so it's not as easy as the other difficulties, you have to be careful. Before I start playing in The End Of The World, I'm going to go to various worlds and try to get my level up so I won't have problems in that world. It was tough in the normal Kingdom Hearts 1 because I wasn't at a high level. But even though it was tough in Kingdom Hearts 1, I still beat it.

Kingdom Hearts Games I'm Currently Still Playing

Right now, I'm currently playing 4 Kingdom Hearts games, and they are: Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories(Japanese version), and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. I've already beaten Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix and Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories, but I still play them because they are still fun to play, and it's easier since those games allow you to save clear data. I didn't beat Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix yet because I just recently got that one early this year and I'm not finished with it yet, but I'm close to beating that one. For Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, I beat all 3 stories and finished the final episode, but I still didn't have time to battle Vanitas' Sentiment or the Mysterious Figure yet, I'll get to those battles as soon as I can. I also still have to complete the matches in the Mirage Arena and try to complete the Trinity Archives.

Welcome To My Blog

Hello, this is my first ever blog. I will be posting about Kingdom Hearts(mainly what Kingdom Hearts games I'm playing and where I'm up to in those games) and a few things about what I'm doing in my life. This website is brand new, so I'll need your help getting more visitors to this blog. I'm still learning what to do on this website, so it might take some time until I got everything complete.
