So Chelsea and Dusty came to visit for all of last week (Sunday through Saturday), which was awesome (and kept me from getting any real work done for an entire week). We ate out (until the fridge was replaced by a not-new working one), we took a walking tour of campus in the pouring rain, we played Magic (Chelsea andDusty taught me), we went to wal-mart at 2am (twice, I think)... all kinds of awesome things that we do on a regular basis in Starkville, that are made much more awesomer when other (non-Starkville) people participate. And we might get Chelsea down here in a year or so... maybe.
David and Nichole dropped in for the afternoon and visited and ate yummy Bulldog Deli desserts with me (which is great, because I seldom manage to go there and only get dessert...).
There is a chance that Hillary might be coming down this week (we don't know yet...) Which would be great... no idea what we'll do when she gets here, but we'll think of something, I'm sure.
And Big Mike is coming down Sunday night and satying for a couple of days... then he'll be back in August for school. Yay!
So yeah. fun stuff. anyone else who wants to visit, feel free to call or drop in :-)
heh. I love Christmas break. No more spending my break rushing to drive siblings and parents to work at awful hours of the morning (and then go to work myself)... no, this year I stay up all night playing videogames... and sleep all day. Very very nice. I haven't had time to really play video games since.... before midterms. *sigh*.
And now the moment you have all been waiting for (or not)... my thoughts on Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. Actually, I like it. Which is good, since i went through Hell, two Wal-marts and a Best Buy to get it (I am begining to think that hell and Wal-mart resemble each other somewhat...). But I digress. The new combat system.... is ok. I like it, I manage to kick butt with it (most of the time). I guess they couldn't manage the exploding menu thing from the first one on the GBA. But they worked the card system into the plot very nicely. The plot is also very cool, at least as far as I've gotten in it (I'm between the 10th and 11th floors, there are 13). And rumor has it that once I beat the game as Sora I can play the Riku part of the game (which is different than Sora's game). This makes me happy. As far as time spent... it's about an hour a floor for the lower floors, about an hour and a half for the upper floors so far, and about 15 minutes for the Winnie the Pooh floor. I think I've spent about 12 hours on my ten floors. All in all, I think the game is success (but not sure how well everyone else liked it... Chad hates the card system).
In other news, Chad and I are in Huntsville for another couple of days. We're leaving the 23rd or 24th. And we'll be going to Memphis for a week or so, then home... For school to start :-) (I have to finish Kingdome Hearts before then).
Anyway, gotta run now... need to like, visit with my family or something. :-)
Oh yeah... Chad's christmas presents have started arriving in the mail... so I made him come with me to WalMart and buy wrapping paper. And some of his stuff is already wrapped and set out (though not under a tree yet as Chad absolutly refuses to set up our tree until after Thanksgiving) :-) Yay for presents. And for actually having a place of our own to decorate.
Ha ha... just got back from Linear Algebra... almost didn't go, because I feel like crap and i have a lot to do today... but my teacher made it all worth it. Not only did he tell us exactly what would be on the test, he ranted about his mother (who is visiting) for like, half the class. And he had to stop in the middle of the class and do yoga to calm down. And he threw chalk at people. It was great. Hence, the quote of the day is from Linear Algebra... Sort of a comment on Wal-mart, Frat boys, and life in general.
Dr. Knudson:I wrote out a shopping list for my mother and sent her to Wal-Mart, and she was gone for three fucking hours! Frat boy that sits behind me:Man, Wal-mart is great... if they put a boobie bar in there, I'd stay there all the time.
So I made it work... I am way too awesome :-) Now if only I could get my cam to work..... Imagine that, a computer engineer that can't install a webcam. How sad is that?
And what's up with these templates? I couldn't find one that fit me... I settled on this one becasue it was decidedly less pink than the first one I set up.... and I am not really a pink person *grin*. Don't they have ready-made thundercats templates or something? I mean, really... Some of us are too lazy to design our own templates :-)
I guess that's it for the moment... (real exciting, huh?) It's 6pm, so I can finally leave my roomwithout worrying if my mom is going to call while I'm gone. I need to make a Wally-World run... I may post later tonight..... I dunno yet.
This is my brain..... in part, at least.
