Busy! :(
Hey everyone!
Sorry for the lack of posts lately (ie since January), I suck I know XD The way things are this year I've either been so busy that I've had no time to write or so bored that I've had nothing to write about! But after the repeated pokings of Izumi-chan and Ke-kun I've decided to post something :D And just so you know those weren't metaphorical pokings, they literally spent a good few hours poking me yesterday... While I was full of Dim Sum... Poor me~ :( :P
So~ Hmm what's happened since my last post waaaay back in January? A fair bit I imagine... Izumi-chan turned 21, a big load more crap happened in my house which resulted in Nathalie and Sibley (two of my best friends) moving out and having to find emergency accommodation for the rest of the year, I've been working fairly constantly on my final year individual project, I completed Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and a big bunch of Virtual Console games, some crazy Germans came to visit... All important things I should have blogged about, but I didn't, and I'm not gonna - If you wanna hear about them ask me on MSN :P
Things I am gonna blog about are things which are still going on :) I'm fed up with my usual "last few weeks/months recap" blogs and I think they've given me bad blogging habits so they're gone! Bwahaha :P So then... Things... :P
Exams!
My exams are coming up in a few weeks! My final exams! I should be revising more :)
Magic: The Gathering
This wonderful mix of spending all my money and shuffling 60 card decks has re-entered my life :) Dustin and I were bored of playing DS during the How To Draw Manga lessons so we started playing Magic... Then his friend Andrei, and Ant, and Kenny, and J.P., and Nick, and Joe, and Kai joined us... Then I started going to the SciFi Society MTG nights on Thursdays too... And we had our own booster draft with Time Spiral and Planar Chaos boosters. It's really good to be playing again but it is frightfully addictive :P
Reading
I read The Runes of the Earth, I read the translation of the Battle Royale novel, I read the Earthsea Quartet, and I'm now I'm re-reading Cryptonomicon. I highly recommend every last one of them.
DS
Ouendan Ouendan Ouendan~ <3 If you don't know it it's the Japanese version of Elite Beat Agents... And if you don't know Elite Beat Agents then you need to stop buying your DS games in England where they come out about 6 months late :P Ouendan/EBA are rhythm games where music plays and you have to tap the DS touch screen in time with the music... Think DDR but for DS :P Ouendan has such great music too, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, B'z, Orange Range, nobodyknows+, L'Arc~en~Ciel :D I'm now very very stuck on the last level of Insane mode though (there are 4 difficulties: easy, normal, hard and insane) which is annoying :P
I also got Wario: Master of Disguise which is pretty fun although the levels tend to take me about an hour to get through o.o; Not your usual 2D platformer lol.
Pokemon: Pearl should be coming through the post in April! *excited*
Phone
I got a new phone! :O It's a Nokia n73, and it's on contract... It's fun :)
IT Crowd
I'm in the audience for IT Crowd season 2! :D Been to one filming already last Friday, it was really great :) If you're at all geeky or just like good comedy shows no matter what the setting go buy The IT Crowd season 1 on DVD :P
Conclusions
The weather has such a huge effect on my emotions, the onset of spring makes me very happy :) Lately whenever I go to the supermarket or anywhere I can smell the spring whenever I go out of the front door, it's awesome! <3
