Dropped the watch, jeez it runs fast!

AHHHHHHHH

I'm so pissed, cause I coudn't publish what I had, so this is what I did. copied it: ctrl + c
Refresh page. oh, look, second half is gone. I'll remove what's here and rep;ace it with everything...
WAIIIIT WHAT
Ok so some picture i copied earlier that would be in the blog pops up, and so I just lost the whole blog. 20 minutes of hard work. sad now..


ANYWAYS.

Here's approxiamately what I blogged about, but shorter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Last friday, I went to the pool with my little brothers. We swim, I take it into the hot tun(anyone call it that?) Not the pool, I swam in the pool, but didn't wear it. It's 100m water resistant, but lemme tell you something.

"WATER RESISTANT" AND "WATERPROOF" AND NOT THE SAME THING
water proof can be submersed in the specified depth, and a water ressistant can resist that depth's pressure. for about  20 minutes. No good. No, the pool's not 100m deep. But Seiko, the watch I bought's company doesn't reccomend taking it in water. WTF? It's water resist, so why? Pisses me off. 


WELL ANYWAYS as we finish in the "hot tub" we shower, and I make my younger siblings change and pee and stuff (oh look I said pee 😝). Well Some reason my little brother wants my watch. I let him wear it. He's 6. one thing. When he decides that  e wants to take it off, he just starts, and I tell him to wait, but he doesn't stop. By the time I get to him, BAM. He dropped it. 

Now listen, it looks almost fine. There is a slight dent at the top of the bezel, but I don't even notice it. The problem is, IT RUNS 3 MINUTES FAST NOW. It used to run off around 3 seconds. 3 MINUTES OFF. I have to adjust the time every 8 hours. That's horrible. 


B UT DON'T PANIC. I bought some stupid tool thing to open the back of the watch, and I'll *try* to fix it.

YEAH.....


Ya know what I'm too lazy to do the rest

AH SHAME ON ME., but I'll jsut say I talked about how to fix it in detail which you don't need, and i also talked about some women at the pool who was being, well what's a way to insult someone without having to censor it? Just think of it like that.


YEAH, WELL THEN GUYS THAT'S IT, So umm buy

sTev

Yes that was puposeful

The watch!

Hey guys! I'm blogging two times this week! Not that big a deal,  considering over the summer I blogged daily. Haha. But anyways lemme tell you about the watch. First, the pictures











So yeah. Lemme tell you from start to now what has happened.

I get home, open the mail, amazon box(In the future I don't reccomend getting expensive watches off amazon) inside is Seiko box. I open it, and inside, the Seiko is on the side of the "pillow". It was running when I got it, If you don't know mechanical watches, They are run by a spring, which needs to be rewound frequently(once a day usually). This watch was running when I got it! I was amazed. Then later I figured it out. See, this watch is an automatic, meaning it has a rotor
Image result for automatic watchNow, the pic's a Seiko, but it's not what I have. It's an automatic though. See the bottom half, that half circle? That is a spinning weight. It moves when you move your wrist and pretty much it winds the watch by itself. Well that is how the watch came running. 

After that the next thing I did was put it on.(ha duh) well it came with a metal strap, but it was really cheap, So I put on the NATO strap I bought. I tried the two ones I got: a black one and a black and gray one. I like the black one as you saw in the pics. I love it man. The watch and the strap. NATOs are light, waterproof, and washable. That's why I got it. Another thing is that I had to adjust the date and time, but that's no big deal. The awesome thing about the springs and gears is that I can listen to it tick. It's kinda obvious, but it's really cool. Also great for being a showoff ;) (ha not really, but Hey people are genuinely interested.

Time. I've set it over many times. I'll give you what I have. And explanations
5:08 pm 4/5 --4 sec slow     okay, that's how it came
8:49 pm 4/5 --7 sec slow     ohhh, 4 hours, 3 sec slow. I was expecting less that 1 sec per 2 hours
9:15 pm 4/5 -- reset 9 sec slow     OK, reset whatever
~~~
6:50 am 4/6 12 sec slow             Whoa, in 9 hours 3 sec only! That's 7.57 sec slower per 24 hrs. That's good enough for me
6:19 pm 4/6 11 sec slow  Wait what? Now it added one second? It used to be slowing down. and 1 sec in 12 hrs? am I gonna get 2 sec fast per 24 hrs?


OK So all I know is that it's in the "decent" range for accuracy. Quartz watches(electric) are off only a couple seconds per month. On the other hand, mechanicals are far more off, but they are so much more "loved".

NIGHT
Time to sleep. I look up on my phone people sleeping with watches. People did it so I was like, "Ya know what why not?" Well I did, and, well see the lume (Glowing stuff) was brighter than I expected. I get in bed, and it's bright. Only downside? There is nothing showing which one it 12. The outside dots all look the same(see above). Well, I sleep with my arm under my pillow, and 2 hours after I turned the lights out I wake, up, and look at the watch, I'm amazed, cause it's still glowing bright, and it's pretty dark

I feel like there is something else---YEah there is. Yesterday I bought another strap. 13 bucks, for a "high quality" leather strap. dunno how good it is, but apparently it's waterproof. Waterproof, water resistant, I dunno. but it looks good.

One more thing. I just want you guys to hear this song. You'll see it, but read here first. I saw this video sometime in august last year probably. I love it like many songs. Not the original of this song, it's not good. This one is jazz, and I just love it.




well yeah, that's all I have for you. I just love it, the lead singer, his range, I admire. He is handsome- If I was a girl I would have a crush on him probably.


NEXT WEEK IS SPRING BREAK FROM SCHOOL

bye guys, have a good life.

I dunno, right now I feel very genuinely happy. What happened? I dunno

See ya hopefully tomorrow

Crap-ton of life advice...New watch coming up! and possibly new channel and other stuff

Yo guys so um I just bought this watch:
Image result for seiko snk795Image result for seiko snk795Image result for seiko snk795 nato
It's called the Seiko SNK795. HEY! Seiko's not that bad. You may know I'm into watches. Wait I never said that. So well I got into watches by getting into knives. I spent time watching knife vids on youtube, and one guy talked about watches. Then I watched a ton of his watch vids, then went looking for more vids on watches. So I got into it. Or maybe it was watches that got me into knives...

Also, This watch cost less than 100, and it's an automatic(driven by springs and gears, self wound by your body movement.) It was $89, I paid 11 more for 2 NATO straps, and with tax it was 110.....BAD... suck it up.

Apparently the strap it comes with(metal one first picture) is really bad, and feels cheap. I bought NATO straps to replace them. I was really debating on it: classic NATO or classy leather? NATOs have a good history to them though. NATOs were made for the *British* (I think) army so that they could have cheap, adjustable, yet secure straps. They are made so that if one lug (those pins on the side that hold the strap in)breaks it still holds the watch. This was important for the military. Now they are a cool thing to  have your watch on because they are light and waterproof, just dress your watch down a little:

See? Less likely to get robbed(not actually) and more casual wear. Most people don't know about these and if you see this on someone they either have really good style, know watches somehow, or collect watches.

______________NEXT TOPIC

I'm thinking of starting a new channel. One day I just sat down cause I was sad. Yeah. Or maybe I was doing homework listening to Glenn Miller. (old stuff) He doesn't make sad music, but one song that is just beautiful came on, and it was just the best. Lemme get you the two songs I was probably listening to:



The first song is just some song  I heard on Spotify.

ABOUT THE SECOND SONG. It's beautiful to me. Listen to the lyrics:
To you my heart cries out, PerfidiaFor I found you, the love of my life, in somebody else's armsYour eyes are echoing perfidiaForgetful of our promise of love, you're sharing another's charms...With a sad lament my dreams have faded like a broken melodyWhile the gods of love look down and laugh at what romantic fools we mortals be...And now I know my love was not for youAnd so I take it back with a sigh, perfidious oneGoodbye...

It is romantic, and I do think of someone (HA "that one" if you know what that is :)
Yes, they are both "old music" and sad and depressing (like my home life), but they do set off something inside.

So yeah, I'm making a channel based off depression.
look out for that soon...

Ya know that crap in the last blog about making money on spinners? I made $132! not counting coins, which would probably add a few more bucks... That's how I bought the watch. Actually, I shouldn't have bought the watch,. because I still owe my parents 300 bucks or so for the 3D printer. Heck, Even If i did already pay off the printers I have another 270 bucks I spent on other crap that I also need to pay off. OK so far I probably made 10 spinners, ($100), 4-ish Penny spinners(pennies on the outside, $32 bucks, and I sold a few frames. Well, then I stopped for a while, but this week I should be back in business. Just Friday I ran out of plastic for my printer, so I bought more, arriving tomorrow. I'll be back probably Wednesday. Make another 80 bucks... then either move on or sell other crap. yeah.

____________NEXT TOPIC

Well um I found out a few things about life (not so recently) but um I thought I'D JUST GIVE YOU  GUYS LIFE ADVICE

If you are walking and there are others, don't get out of people's way. People are too awkward today and will avoid interaction(in my area). Walk forward, and 90% of people will get out of your way(in my area) ADVICE: don't get into a fight if you bump into them.

When your want something, or you want someone to say something, don't say "will you__" or "can you __" instead say "would you rather ___ or ___" By doing this you have already preset that they want to, now it's just a matter of details

Don't be afraid to do foolish things in public. Unless you're famous. Honestly when you go out, just about nobody knows you. They won't see you again. People don't care about you as much as you care about yourself. If someone embarrasses you, or you do something dumb, don't worry, It's not gonna go around city. Unless you know that person who was watching you do stupid crap, or they will spread news. People in public forget crap. When you are embarrassed nobody cares, they will forget.

If you force yourself to do good things, or don't let yourself do something bad, you find that you can do much more. Like I talked about awhile ago, taking cold showers. You suffer, and don't feel that instant happiness. It comes after awhile. EX: you hear the alarm clock go off. GET UP NOW, Don't wait. Seriously. You'll find you have more time than you think, you were wasting that time all along, why did you do it. EX:STOP PROCRASTINATING! Just turn the phone off, and do your work. If not, at least silence it. Or use it to play music, but THAT'S ALL. Also, don't let yourself do bad things. EX: It's 1 in the morning. WTF are you doing? GO SLEEP. Take your phone, just press the off button, it's not that hard. It's a magical moment you have when that screen goes blank, THEN ALL THE SLEEPINESS SEEPS IN. Go sleep.

People don't want to be the first to do something. But you be the first, there are others that feel the same and will follow you. EX: During class or meeting, when teacher or boss says, "anybody need the restroom?" You be first, and trust me, there are others who just by seeing you go, will feel like they now need to go.

3, 2, 1. Do it, NOW. It works. Wanna do something, but you're scared. 3, 2, 1 is 2 things actually: 1)you should do it now, so you countdown, and just speak up then or 2) You have something scary to do, so set a deadline, to get it done by, and do it BEFORE then

When you do good things, you should treat yourself. EX: (this is real life actually) I have a bible reading plan(I'm Christian) to catch up on, because I stopped reading a month ago, and so I said I would buy a watch, and I said, I won't touch the watch until I am up to date with the bible plan. Trust me, I will.

If  you crave something you shouldn't be craving, you find if you don't do it for long enough, that craving will leave, and it will no longer be interesting.

Also, surround yourself will people higher than you who look down on that craving. You will feel embarrassed to do it, and you wont

Don't rush. Take your time in life. You've got time, and it makes time feel more roomy.

Stop being late. People around you hate it. It pisses everyone off. Get there 5-15 minutes early.

Take some time and think about life before you sleep. You'll find too much and sleep really quickly because your brain just exploded.

If you buys stuff for yourself, buy stuff for other people. It gives you "the happies" inside.

Better to do work in the morning than to stay late. Sleep latest 12, wake up earliest 4, and you find instead of "up till 1, wake at 6" , even though it's more time you'll be less awake. You should get most days 7 hrs sleep.

If you're doing something bad, Stop, and think about the future. Seriously. Respect yourself.

Don't be someone you're not. If you seem stupid, Remember, honestly nobody thinks that much about you as you do.

Start a journal. It's not just a girly thing. Write to future you.You'll write nothing at first, but you'll find a few weeks in you'll write pages in one sitting, and you'll spend 40 minutes writing (I've ctually been writing this blog for 70 minutes or so so far) And it doesn't have to be a book. It can be public(blogger), private(email or Google Docs). You'll go back and read it in as less as a week, and it will seem interesting. (I read my own blogs). And put dates on them.

Don't read/phone during meals. Just STOP. You don't get as much nutrition from the food because you're brain isn't even thinking about digestion anymore. Read your twitter feed and crap after. Meals are for talking to people around, talking to 1)your brain 2)"Mr. Schedule" 3)Your inside feelings

Go clean your room/office. RIGHT NOW. JUST DO IT... You'll feel better. You will. 'Cause once you start, you just have to finish. Seriously.


____________________________NEXT TOPIC???~?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!



No more, I spent 75 minutes, and after editing even more.

Well I hope you actually read that huge text mass.... Thanks for coming, seriously..., Little message to one of you: stop watching porn, one of you. One of you viewers watches before coming here, and Google gives me that info, of who comes to this blog, where they're from, what OS, what Browser, and the site before it. Whoever it is, just STOP. (I'm sorry for the rest of you, but this has to be done) I have been seeing these for the last 6 months probably. Just stop.....


I'm sorry for that.😵
