Got roommated with the best roommate I can think of, Clint. Don't have to share a bathroom yet, until that other room gets taken up. Across the hall from two of my good friends, Peter and Matt.
Pretty happy with the dorm assignments for next year.
I will miss being here at Xavier's though. Everyone here has been so hospitable and welcoming. Well, almost everyone So thank you, everyone here at Xavier's. And best of all, we Starkies will be out of your hair soon enough. I'm sure we've been cramping your style for long enough.
Pretty sure it got lost in all the Olympic madness, but....we put a rover on Mars. Thats pretty cool right. Do we have any students from Mars? I know we have a guy from the moon, which is pretty epic.
Saw the Canadian team and ex-school chums Alpha Flight on TV. You look good on TV guys.
Not going to be able to go to the Stark Expo. Got asked to do another shoot for Burberry. Thats a fancy place, right? Either way, it pays.
Update from Clint & Mike's Room: Its probably empty and still being painted or carpeted or whatever over at the new building.

So my manager (still feels weird, saying that) says that a photo shoot I did is going to be an ad in GQ Magazine. So...keep an eye out for next month's issue. I'm basically just wearing a jock-strap in it, but its all shadowy and dark so you can't really tell. Just some inside info from the model standpoint.
Update from Mike & Clint (and Artie & Manuel)'s room: Most of my stuff is put away in boxes. Since they took our roommie votes I can only assume that the new dorms will be ready soon. I just wanted to be ready, and it frees up some space for Manuel and Artie. Also, Clint is not in here while I'm writing this, this time. Think he's out at work.
Going to go out hang out with a model friend. Finally, someone else to talk about eating crappy crappy protein supplements with.
Hooked on a web-series. Anyone watch those? I didn't think I would like such short little episodes of things but decided I like them now. When they're good. Its called the Lizzie Bennet Diares. It's good.
This would be where I talk about the mutant blood testing thing, because everyone else is, but no matter what I say and no matter who I agree with, I will only upset people. So I'm going to do what I do best and not say anything at all.
Dying to play video games for some reason. Something with lasers and space aliens. I feel like killing aliens. Pew-Pew.

Who else sign up for baseball, basketball, football, hockey, swimming, tennis, track & field, wrestling, drama club, NHS, ROTC, Self-Defense, and Student Council for Stark's this year? I'll see you there.
Sort of wish there were more sports to join up with. Is there a gymnastics or water polo club in the works?
Update from Mike & Clint (and Artie & Manuel)'s Room: Lots of bedding kinda here and there. It's early morning though, so its understandable. At the moment Clint is in the room with me, sitting across the way, on his own computer. Hello, Clint.
When do we hear back from our room assignment requests? I'm eager to find out if I go on living with cranky robin hood, or have to adjust to another personality. I warn whoever I end up with, I am incredibly difficult to live with. What with all the being quiet, minding my own business and not interfering with your life in any way. I know how Clint hates it.
You know where's a good place to meditate? Bottom of the pool. Does Namor have scuba equipment?
Uncle Steve Capt. Rogers, still waiting to hear back about that race.
I am Michael Van Patrick, and this is going to be my year.

The Olympics are very fun to watch. Think I'll go next year time. And compete.
Update from Mike & Clint (and Artie & Manuel)'s room: Mostly clean. One of the beds isn't made. Not sure why I made mine. Bored I guess. Whats the point? Its only going to get slept in again later.
Also, those two girls that usually sit behind me (and talk about me) in English class came back to the school after summer break. They sat behind me at lunch and talked about me. Some things never change.
As the new year stars, I think some new students have arrived. Hi, I'm Michael Van Patrick. Mike or MVP for short.
Hey Uncle Steve Captain Rogers, I want to race you.
Also, that 'Call Me Maybe' song has been playing non-stop. I have no idea if I like it, or dislike it. Pretty sure it's just brainwashing noise to my ears by now. All I know is, I know the chorus by heart now.
Hey, Heroes for Hire, huddle up. We need to discuss our game plan. You know, for a pizza night.

Update from Mike & Clint (and Manuel & Artie)'s Room: Very crowded. Lots of testosterone. I'm pretty sure one of these nights before we all go to bed, we're just going to bust out into a fist fight, drink beers and talk about breasts. Well...they will. Other than that, its fine. Lot of different smells going on. Not bad smells, just different smells.
Met with the modeling agency. I guess I've got what what they call "undie looks," meaning I'm going to be an underwear model. They're going to take pictures of me, see if they like them, and then either hire me or not. Photo shoot is Thursday. Wish me luck.
Hey, guys that went over to Canada, sup? Van Patrick misses ya.
Hey guys in Canada I haven't met yet. Hi. I'm Mike. Nice to meet you.
I think I'm ok no. Im pretty sure Anthony is not going to come back before he goes to MIT. I think I'm ok with it. I hate it. But I can't change it.
I miss him. Everyday.
Does anyone know where Anthony Stark is?
Goodbye Anthony.

I'm coming back to school. Should be there in a couple of days.
Disney job ended earlier than I thought.

Sharon Osbourne was at Disneyland Today and she took a picture with Snow White and I. She may be my new favorite person. She's very nice.
Update from Mike &Clint's Room: freshly cleaned thanks to the Sand Dollar Motel staff. The TV is on, playing pay-per-view dirty movies a show called Wipe-Out. I am putting 'being on that show' on my list of things to do.
Its really muggy today in LA. This is the first time since I've been out here that the sky is gray and not bright blue. Not exactly the weather I wanted on my day off.
Worked out at Muscle Beach the other day. Some of these guys are far bigger than I am, but it was funny to see their faces when I could easily lift twice what they were. Then meditated in Griffith Park near the Hollywood Bowl. Seriously, Stark should consider rebuilding his school out here instead of NYC....though NYC is good too.

Back by popular demand: Update from Mike's & Clint's Room:
Clint is not here. Sad. Kind of dull. Boring motel wallpaper. Freshly cleaned by cleaning service.
Cali is great. It's getting hot though, and the Prince costume is starting to get a little...well...heat strokey. I hope they put me as Tarzan more often.
I hear there are a ton of parties going on back on the East Coast. Pretty sure the one where everyone visited over here was better though. Just saying.
I'm joining the league of bloggers that claim that that Spider-Guy in NYC is both good and good-looking. Didn't think there was another kid about my age who could rock tights. I guess I was wrong.

Howdy. I say howdy, only because I'm wearing cowboy boots today. Don't ask me why. A professional stylist told me I look good in them so...I decided I'm going to wear them. So there.
Anyway, Disney is fun. Its kind of cool walking around just being someone else for a while. Besides, Prince Charming is pretty stoic himself so...no need for much acting. Tarzan is a bit different. Funny thing though. I was Tarzan the other day and some lady slipped me her card. She's with a modeling agency. Not sure what to do about that.
California is just...love it here. Could totally see myself moving out here after high school is all said and done.
Hey, girls from English class who sat behind me. Miss me? How about you, Clint?
Thanks to those of you who visited me at Disneyland. Sorry I couldn't just say hi. We're required to be in character at all times.
I feel like swimming. In a pool though. Not the ocean. Gonna go jump in Anthony's the motel's pool now.

Anyone else going to the prom stag? Just curious. Figured we could start a biker gang that call ourselves "the stags" or something. Then again, in order to do that, I'll need to get a motorcycle first.
So far summer has been peachy. I have yet to take advantage of the pool here at Xavier's so thats next on my list.
As for one of the girls that sat behind me in English class the person who slid a note under our dorm room door asking me to prom...it would help if you'd put your name or something on the paper. Simply for that, I must decline. If I went with you, I could no longer be head Stag of The Stags.
Also, who's DJing the prom? I'm going to need to speak with them before hand and approve of their playlist. I will not attend a prom that doesn't plan Dingos.

Happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday dear Mikey.
Happy birthday to me.
So....18. Wow. I can do lots of stuff now, huh? I can go to the pet store and pet the puppies unsupervised. I can buy porn. I can buy a lotto ticket. You know, all the glamorous stuff in life.
Mom and Dad sent me a laptop to replace the one I lost in the old school. Also, they got me a new MVP jersey.
Before I ship out to California, gramps says he needs to check my vitals or whatever. They're the same as every year, sept I usually grow like...an inch or two. I'm pretty sure I can bench 300 more than I could last year too. Cost of being a super soldier, am I right, Uncle Captain Steve?
Anyway....it's birthday day for me. What should I do?

You'd think after a tussel with a dinosaur, I'd have more than a headache and a couple scratches. Eat it, Dr. Alan Grant.
Mad props to Maya and Teddy.
[Anthony]
Are you ok? I couldn't find you and was worried.

Final team scores are out. Heroes for Hire didn't totally suck, I guess. I consider that a plus. We're also in the top 6, which is fine by me.

So, how did everyone's team challenges go? Anyone have to just sit down and do their multiplication tables, or was everyone getting to do the fun stuff and zipping around, blowing up space ships and saving damsels? Heroes for Hire had to do science. And we still were not paid.
School year is almost over. I have been to over 100+ classes and I still don't think the girls behind in me in English know I can hear them. And if they do know, they should think twice before saying a bunch of stuff about me that I could probably fill a Penthouse magazine with.
Update from Clint & Mike's Room: Clean. New Dingos poster. Has me in it.

Big challenge day today, folks. Good luck to all the teams. I'll be meditating up until go-time since I'm assuming Dr. McTaggert isn't going to give us something too physical.
Update from Clint & Mike's Room: Oddly clean today. A few dishes have piled up. Closet pretty much empty. Laundry needs to be done. Sorry it's boring today.

What with all the commotion about final challenges, I forgot to tell you all. I tried out for Disneyland, to be one of their characters. No, I didn't get Peter Pan, but I get to work out there for part of the summer. Neat, right?
Did anyone else get a soft, deep sense of fulfillment and satisfaction watching our teachers beat the tar out of each other? I know it got me all toasty inside.

So...I dreamt last night that the whole school burst into song and sang "Midnight Train to Georgia." Should I be seeing Dr. Ward? Also, I had no idea Eddie Brock had such a beautiful falsetto.
The first team challenge is this weekend, right? Anyone else nervous ready?
Damn, now "Midnight Train to Georgia" is stuck in my head.
Update from Mike & Clint's Room: Nobody is in it...at least I don't think so. If its not, whoever's in our room, leave.

Hey Stark junios. Does anyone have the notes for Falsworth's history class last week. I fell asleep- was busy daydreaming- was distracted by a bird outside the window and went into deep philosophical mode- all of the above- didn't get them.
Dingos concert with my boyfriend coming up soon, the school Robo-Rumble around the corner. End of the school year's getting exciting.
Also, I've got my Disneyland Audition coming up soon. Wish me luck.
Update from Clint & Mikes Room: Not much to report. It kinda smells like cherry.
