Guitar Herooooo 2!

Tuesday, November 7th, 2006

Guitar Hero 2 is awesome!!

I still haven’t started Final Fantasy 12 :(

I did start playing Trauma Center again though. I’m STILL stuck on the X1 mission, but at least now there are some guides on gamefaqs about how to beat some of them. (I had no idea the gel slows bleeding on normal cuts - I can’t believe I made it through the game without knowing this!) I’m really excited to get past X1 because I feel like that almost has to be the hardest one :( lol. What I’ve heard reading about the 2nd one (I haven’t read past that one) is the 2nd feels like a walk in the part compared to X1! We’ll see… if I ever beat X1.

I’m almost done with Kingdom of Shadow :( which means the last Diablo book will be finished and I STILL have no idea where Kushiel’s Avatar is. My next plan is to look at home (but I don’t remember leaving it there) because I don’t have a single clue where it would be if it were here. The book is really good though… I’m loving it :) I’m so close to done I can’t believe I haven’t finished it yet :P But I guess Guitar Hero 2, being so new, was too enticing!

Finally I got around to organizing my infamous stack of paper. I have sorted most of my class work into folders so I don’t have 8 million papers from different classes lying around. I can’t believe I haven’t been more organized this semester :/

A “girl” applied to my WoW guild today (on Mannoroth, not Bronzebeard). I almost feel like it has to be a joke app based on the amount of typos. This was what really set me off though: Tell us a little bit about you:I’m a cool female that loves sexy people and make some noise in vent O_o ( erlon liked it), i drink alot so im oftendrunk in vent and its fun:D but i can still pay attention. started playing WoW in july 2005 i think. and i have no life. Yay, that’s just what we need - a drunk vent whore :( I bet she (if she is actually a she) likes to post half naked pictures of herself on the forums too! I’d like to believe that if she is for real, she won’t get in, but who knows.

I got a bunch of work done on monday (2 website designs and the beginnings of a flash mockup for our crossword puzzle) so I’m really feeling good about that :) But I have tons of work to do in my film class (mostly footage that I really want and haven’t gotten yet) so I still feel behind :(

Anyway I should stop writing and get back to organizing everything. The sooner that’s done, the sooner I can finish typing up my screening journal which is due tomorrow (and some films I never took notes on, so I need to google for reminders or make something up…) and the sooner I can study for Ethics! I’m not too worried about Ethics though since I have all morning and most of the evening to study for the test, and I don’t think I’ll even need that much time :)

I don’t know what else to say D:

I hope Chris fixes his thingy so it doesn’t post my journal entry in his journal again. (Be prepared to see this entry in his journal in a couple of hours I’m sure :p)

class is ftl :(

Soooo…

Have a test wednesday in Ethics. I have been considerably worse at going to class since the first test (which I got an A- on) so I will be going to the test review tomorrow evening. Although, a brief look at the study guide does seem to put me in an OK place… still better safe than sorry :x If I can manage an A average (which is the grade I want in the class) I get to skip the final :) There are 3 tests and one retake day, so if I can get good grades on all the tests (he calls them quizzes, I’m sorry but NO quiz is worth 33% of your grade) then I won’t have to go to the retake day :)

I love that class though - the teacher told us a story the other day about why he doesn’t make fun of people for being late. He said there was this one girl who was always 10-15 minutes late for his class and she’d come in with her little dunkin donuts coffee and bag of donuts (or a bagel or whatever) and there would never be any open aisle seats so she’d have to kind of stumble over tons of people to get to one of the seats in the middle of the row (how dumb is it that this always happens :p) etc etc etc. Anyway she did that EVERY day. He used to joke about how she couldn’t manage to get up in time for his class after partying all night or something, blahblahblah. Finally the first test comes along and it is in the evening and she says she cannot take the test in the evening. So the teacher is like “haha so why not? have a party that night?” And then she goes off into this big explanation of having to take her son to practice (or whatever) in the evenings and then she has to work from midnight to 8am in the emergency room in springfield (she is a nurse) and that is why she is always late to class, because she has to rush straight to class from work and doesn’t even have time to make breakfast, etc etc etc…. it was really funny to hear him talk about it and how terrible he felt after making fun of her for so long :P

My 3rd project in my video class is due next week, so this week is probably going to be a busy one with staying in the lab in the evenings and everything :( I also need to get some modeling done.

Chris has been playing Final Fantasy 12 and it makes me want to play :( I have to keep myself from watching him too much because I don’t want the game to get spoiled for me!

I finished the 2nd Diablo book (The Black Road) and started the 3rd one (City of Darkness, or something like that). The second one was… weird. The writing was somewhat mediocre :/ I liked the story but I thought it was VERY strange how they kept bringing up the main character’s abusive father in so many weird ways. Toward the end it got a lot better but the beginning was a little awkward ^^; The third book is by Richard Knaak and it has been great so far :)

Regardless, I really wish I didn’t lose Kushiel’s Avatar, because out of ANY book out there, that’s the one I wish I was reading right now :(

In WoW, I got Shealyn to level 26 (yay pally power) and I’ve been having a lot of fun playing with Kate. Sascha is halfway to 39 (can’t wait to ride my ram mount).

I really don’t want there to be class tomorrow :( boo to school.
