What I've been up to

Howdy yall!

I haven't posted a blog in a while, so this is gonna remedy that!

This week was my spring break for me, and I honestly did a whole lot of nothing. From saturday to wednesday I was in Boston looking at colleges for my sister. I tried to convince my parents that staying at home and playing video games would be a much better use of my time, but that didn't slide well with them .

The only good thing that came out of this was that I brought my PSP along and was able to get a good chunk of Final Fantasy 7 done. Right now I'm at Cosmo Canyon, right before the end of the first disc. Also, I was able to fix the internet on my PS3 and I was able to download the Dust 514 Beta. Let me tell you one thing: I suck a Dust 514. I think in the first three battles I participated in, I got a total of one kill. The game itself is pretty good, but I think it should be tweaked to be a little more accessible to new players. I also sat down resolved to beat Hecatonchier in FFXIII and I finally did after about three or four tries. The reason I had a hard time with it was because the battle requires Vanille, who I drastically ignored in terms of leveling because of her annoying voice.

I've also been reading The Time Machine by H.G. Wells. It's a short book, but I've been inching through it every night, chapter by chapter.

In other news...

I've been meaning to listen to that Daft Punk album and see if I want to get it.

I was looking at Boston College when I was a senior in high school. Sadly, that never really panned out, nor did TCU, but oh well; my SAT and ACT scores were too low for BC anyway, but my grades and tests were more than enough for TCU (1900 and 26), ony it was way too expensive. That reminds me, I need to get my college diploma framed. lol'

Hope your sister finds something great, Boston is an awesome city! Finally found some of my crap from there when I visited.

Boston's cool. My uncle lived there for 20+ years and I'd get to go down and spend a long weekend with him at least once a year. The Science Museum, the Freedom Trail, the USS Constitution and the aquarium were all favorites.

I really like Daft Punk. That type of music is pretty big with me now. I envy you running around Boston. One of the few major American cities I have not been to. Like their style that town. Sometimes doing nothing on a break is just what you need. Lets you reset your brain to better function at work.

A handheld gaming device can be your life-saver during long boring trips. Glad you're enjoying FFF7!

Thats a strange coincidence, I have the H.G Wells Trio. Read the Time Machine a long ago and have recently been reading War of the Worlds. He was deffinately revolutionary for his time, but I'm just not digging his writing style, realy struggling to get through this book, may jump ahead to The Island of Dr. Moreau. If your at Cosmo Canyon you are just getting into the good stuff. Glad to see you got you enternet up. Don't know if your a fan of Borderlands 2, but the Ultimate Vault Hunter mode and Lv cap drop Tues, I'll be there. Laters.
