Hoping for the best.


So I finally got around to posting today. I've been feeling very sick lately and I'm not too sure why... just really tired 24/7... and I slept all day yesterday. I hope I don't have some horrible disease or something... but it could just be me... again.

So in my last post I was excited about getting a special something... and I got it! I am now a proud owner of a PS3! It came very cheap and included the uber HD cord (you know, for that uber HD TV I'll get someday...) and came with about 9 games! So after trading in all the sports / racing / useless shooters (Rainbow Six Las Vegas... I'm looking at you!) I was able to afford some games I'd prefer to waste my life playing.

I got my hands on BlazBlue, the little brother of Guilty Gear (a series I am quite fond of for it's music and gameplay). BlazBlue is much smoother than Guilty Gear, but as always... I feel it is missing just a small part of what Guilty Gear had. Maybe I miss the "RIDU TEH LIGHTUNING!" or the silly stories about characters who's names come from rock bands for no apparent reason other than because it's Japan. The music is pretty good too. I especially like Noel, a dual gunner. Her theme is also one of my favorites!

So apart from BB I've been mostly doing FFXI with my bro again. We finally completed the new mission set "A Crystalline Prophecy" which got us some cool body armor. And now my summons are more powerful than ever and it's time to go for some more legendarily rare armor to make me EVEN MORE POWERFUL! MUAHAHAHA! (or at least my avatars will be stronger...)

Great news recently: FFXIV info is flying all over the place! They've even got gameplay videos just added today. I've been following www.ffxivcore.com for some time now, and they haven't disappointed me yet! It looks very sexy and I'm super excited!

So apart from the escapism that is corrupting my life ever more, I've been working a bit more than usual lately... and I'm getting tired of it! Come on school! Where are you!? But it's mostly just because some people left recently and the other shift is being given shifts at other stores... so I get to fill in on those days I would have off. At least the pay check is there in the end.

I'm almost at my goal of saving for school in the fall! I think I need about 2 more weeks of pay and then I'll have reached my goal... with more to spare! That surprises me... considering my spending habits have been off lately... but I guess I haven't been THAT bad (... well the PS3 was kind of a slip but it was worth it damn it!). In the end, if I can afford school that's all that matters.

And school is so close! I can't wait to be back and start the old routine again. Maybe I'll actually get to sleep! I've been having terrible nightmares again. After I came back from camping... ugh... I could feel the depression crawling up my legs, up my spine, and grab my head and start pushing down on me like and invisible weight. It doesn't help that I've been feeling sick lately. Maybe the two are tied together?

I was going to do some Chara unblocking... but I never got the book I needed. Maybe I'll start when school starts... pffffffffff yeah right. When school starts I can almost guaranty a better attitude all together. At least that's all I can hope for.
