My Blogging Story.
My blogging history has a very interesting history, full of comedy, drama, and fun. This will be LONG, but I encourage you to read all of this. Trust me, you wont be disappointed.

(Throughout the story there will be mentions of many websites. If there is a link to that website, it will be blue. If there is not a link to that website because it is deleted or taken down for any other reason, it will be the regular color green.)
- Club Penguin
One afternoon, summer of 2005, I was looking for something to do. Im walking outside and decide to knock on my friends door. When her brother answered the door, I said “Is Channing home?”. He pointed to the back room. I walked in there ad she was on this website I was not familiar with. I asked her what she was doing. She answered: “Im playing this cool game, its called..”
Club Penguin
(If you dont know what Club Penguin is, Dont click the above link, it will swallow your life and steal you money. Trust me, I know from experience.)
I was so interested in watching her play, so I decided to do the same. That night after I left her house, I immediately went onto Club Penguin, and made an account. My penguin name was Bigmonkey123. I didnt know how much of my life this computer game was going to take up.
Club penguin was a fun game, always changing. I wanted to be a member to have access to all the items like houses, clothing, and furniture. I persuade my parents to let me be a member, as long as I paid for it. Well I did end up paying membership for about a year. I know know that it was a waste.
Anyways, Club penguin got a little boring, after playing it for about a month or two. I figured, like any good game worth playing, there has got to be some cheats.
Google helped me with this problem. I typed in “Club Penguin Cheats”. The first site I stumbled upon was Sanity Penguin’s website. That site fulfilled every Club Penguin cheats wish I Desired. On my way back to that website after accidentally exiting out, I typed in “Club Penguin Cheats” again on google. This time, instead of clicking the top link I browsed around the other websites.
I noticed that every website ended with “.wordpress.com” I didnt know what WordPress was, so I took a trip over to the main website. I then discovered you could make a website like all the others. I wanted to, just didnt know how.
I was back t my friend Channings house, and we explored this website called “WordPress” together. We figured out how to make it, and created the username “monkeybob” (The same username I use to this very day.). Thus, monkeybob.wordpress.com was created. I found out how to change theme, but that was all before we abandoned and deleted it.
I decided to branch off onto my own website. Being inspired by the Club penguin cheat websites before, I made my own, Puffle. The link was www.puffle.wordpress.com . It was deleted for a reason I will explain later in the story.
Now listen, my computer back then was VERY old. I had NO computer smarts AT ALL . I was trying to make my first page on Puffle, and I wanted to use the website (Sanity Penguin’s website) that I had seen before’s cheats. Not knowing how to copy and paste (Sad, I know) I read all of the cheats on that page and manually typed all of them into the posting area. Since my computer was SO OLD and I wanted pictures, I usually took them from Paintboy100. I did so because my computer didnt have the ability to save pictures as JPEG or JPG or PNG. SO I copyed them from another website. I had no idea of this whole “Copyright” thing.
So, I was VERY happy with my website, even though looking back the design and basically everything about it sucked. I decided to look for some more Club Penguin Cheats since Sanity Penguin no longer ran his site. I stumbled upon a website run by a penguin named “Uio9trhijgvn” or “Uio” for short. I was looking at his chats, and his most recent post was titled…
Biggest Copyrighter Ever.

I was absolutely shocked to see my sites link in that post. I saw so many mean comments on it, and soon my website was flooding with mean comments, calling me names, cursing, and other bad things for a 8 or 9 year old to be looking at.
That is how my first cheats website was deleted. I didnt know how to handle all of it, so I abandoned it, later deleting it. I told Uio that I would make another website with a name so hard that he would never find it out. I only wanted my friends to veiw it, and that website was…
Sparky Monkey Party Zone
(www.sparkymonkeypartyzone.wordpress.com . It was deleted for reasons I will explain later in this post.)
It eventually became my main CP cheats website. I was doing so much better on this website, making all sorts of new friends.
Months passed, I was happy that Uio hadnt found my site. I frequently checked his website, looking for any more evil posts about me.
Then on the day ive been dreading ever since I made my new site, it happened. Uio posted this on his Blog…
Biggest Copyrighter Ever… BACK!
(To view the actual post, click here)
But I wasn’t going to stand for it this time. I finally settled down, and I wasn’t going to let him knock me down again. I kept it up, and went through all the mad, and insulting comments over and over and over again. I took a look on the bright side, I actual got about 10,000 hits from that!
So, I was happy again, Uio was gone, and things settled down again. I explored around other penguins websites. I found one website were the guy was named Dendo Guy. He said he made a site for the PCA (Penguin Choice Awards.) The site was very interesting, And I sat back for seasons 1 and 2, and just watched. Season three, I decided to enter but failed. Season four, I entered again.
And I made it!
But as soon as the season kicked off, he decided to quit. PCA was no more, and the other contestants and I were very angry, and sad.
I decided to continue the season for all the others that missed out. I made Penguin Choice Awards myself, at www.clubpenguinidol.wordpress.com . Its funny, that website is the ONLY club penguin website of mine still in existence.
So anyways, during the time I hosted PCA (Which was 7 seasons to be exact) I made SO many friends, some of which im still friends with today, such as Mooseluver8 (Carly), Penquin Jim (Dieter) and Fylliper (Josh).
It seems like so long ago, I think I finally got rid of all of my club penguin stuff in 2007.
There goes the Club Penguin years.
I missed blogging so badly. I missed my online friends so badly. I decided to get back in touch with everyone by making a new website.
This site was based off of a little club we had in reading class at school in 6th grade. It was fun, so we made a site about it. It didnt last that long, not even a year, before we moved on.
The noodles club was so funny though, looking back at the site that is still up.
We made alot of friends on that site to.
