It's my birthday.
I'm now 19. You'd think I'd at least have something whitty to say but no, I don't. lol Don't worry, this blog is about to get much better...... Fin.
Today a little bit of me died.
This is going to be a very short blog. I'm just informing you that a little bit of me has died today due to a cinematic release to movie theaters across the nation. Dragonball Evolution is finally here. Let the middle finger to the DB fanbase fly high, for this day has scarred my entire existence. That is all.
A college related update in a nutshell.
As some of you may know, I'm currently enrolled in college to be a microcomputer tech. I just finished my first semester and am now just starting on my second. This first semester went really well. i got only one B. The rest were A's. The classes aren't too hard if you know about computers but I'm still learning alot.
Other news,
- I picked up World at War. Let me just say COD4 is better and leave it at that.
- It hasn't gone above zero degrees here ONCE in the past two weeks, which is great. -_-
- hmmm....... I guess nothing else. lol
Leave me a comment letting me know how all you guys and gals are doing. It'll be nice to hear from you, considering I have little free time at the moment to hit up any other part of the site. Peace...
-41... Ouch.
Well It's -31 degrees F out... Feels like -41..... It's so cold.
Happy Holidays everyone! lol
An update. Possibly epic but surely boring.
This will be me babbling on about what's new and what's interesting me at the moment. It should be pretty long but it all depends on my stamina.
First off, finals. Well it appears since my classes are so hands-on I only have final projects. I don't have any "finals", which was a nice relief. I've done pretty well coming off the total mess that was High School. Most of my grades are A's or B's. I think I may get one C which is fine. This next semester I am taking 17 credits which will prove to consume my time and my soul. Yipee!
Next, and probably more appropriate, my gaming. I actually just found the Orange Box at Walmart for $20 and I couldn't say no, even though I already pick up Portal Still Alive on Xbox Live. I guess more achievement points for me. I must say the Orange Box's Portal challenge achievements are pretty crazy. I already got every other achievement in both versions except for those challenge mission achievements in the Orange Box version. I might not be able to with the "steps" challenges. I'm not too good at those.
Half Life 2 and Ep 1 and 2 are three games I've never played. I am enjoying the first one and I've heard that the other too are better so I guess I'm in for some good gaming. I recommend the Orange Box to anyone. Especially if it's only $20.
Also, there is Team Fortress 2. Let's just say I'm not impressed. I'm sure there are lovers of it but when it comes to online shooters, there are three in my book.
That brings me to a game that I've been enjoying a lot. Gears of War 2. I first played it on Co-op with one of my better friends, on normal. It was way too easy but I enjoyed it so much. I have since gone back alone and played the game on Hardcore to completion. I love the game. It was great. Now me and my friend are playing it on Co-op Hardcore so he can get that achievement. lol Plus it's just a fun campagin. I never really messed with insane difficulty but I might. I may have the skill but I doubt I'd have the patience to beat it.
Another thing that I've been enjoying, that is gaming related is the new dashboard. The avitars are fine. Nothing really special to me but it's a welcomed edition. The new interface works much better in my opinion. I'm still getting used to it though. Playing games from the hard drive is great. I bought a 120g drive so I could do it. I'm not regretting that choice. The box is so quite and my chances of Red Ringing is lowered. Also, a feature that I could have cared less about before it came out, but now is one of my favorite features is Netflix. Sure it's starting out slow but it can only get better. I love watching shows like CSI through it.
Oh!! and I'm still not playing my Wii. I sort of feel bad about it. Oh well. When I do turn it on, it's either to play Super Mario World for the SNES or Mario 64, which is still the best 3D mario game even with it's, now laughable, graphics.
Another thing that I just got for an early Christmas present was the seventh season of DBZ remastered. I had no idea it was out but I guess it is. It's the start of the Buu saga, which is my favorite, even if most don't share that opinion. I'm also thinking of buying DBGT remastered. Maybe.....
On another note, there was a new "episode" of Dragonball released and it takes place two years after the Buu saga. It was surprisingly good and I recommend any DB fan to check it out. There is no dub to it so you'll need to read subs, which is a blessing in disguise. Trust me on that one. Here is the link to the episode. New DB Episode. 2008 DB The Return of Son Goku and Friends!
A little bit of music news... I bought the new Dir en Grey CD called "Uroboros". It's a mixture of heavy and softer songs which is a nice change from "The Marrow of a Bone". Not much more to say about that besides it a great edition. Oh one thing. I guess there are two versions of the songs Glass Skin and Dozing Green. One in Japanese and the other in English, I'm assuming. Let me just say, both songs were released, in Japanese, before the CD came out. Listening to those songs in English is just weird. It sounds like he's singing the wrong lyrics. lol I can't even listen to them.
As for other life stuff...... Well there is nothing really new. Everything is boring and dull. lol At least I'm happy.
Well that's all I have for you. I'm now going to work on some homework then play some Gears, so I'm off. Peace.
