   Unbelievable...
I never would've thought it would happen, but I think I'm starting to lose interest in videogames *insert gasp*. Recently there hasn't been any substantially interesting game that interests me. Sure I want to play Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube, but getting that GC seems so far away. Not to mention that all the good games are coming out at Christmas too. The major bugger is that FFXII is coming out NEXT year. This FF dryspell is getting annoying, and the gameplay shown in screenshots of FFXII looks really interesting too. Oh well.

To fill this this gap, I've decided to collect comics instead. It's a hell lot cheaper (one good PS2 game, which is roughly $60 CAD, can get me about 12 issues of a comic series). I'm currently trying to collect the Teen Titan, the third series, but I have A LOT of back issue collecting ahead of me. And not to mention of what the cost of getting the first issue might get up to. But so far I have 4 issues, so thats 4 out of 25 back issues that I have to collect. I hope I don't have to resort to online purchasing, for I don't have a credit card, so I'm gonna have to beg my sister to get them for me.

On another note, my brother's girlfriend came for a visit from Vancouver, and holy crap she brought me a crapload of Naruto figurines. Apparently her mother likes to collect these trinkets (how freakin' cool is that? I wish my mom would do something cool like that...) and she got me 2 complete sets from Hong Kong I think. The one I personally like the best is the one that are busts of the characters, because if you remove the stand on the bottom, it reveals a stamp! Whee! Fun making Sharingan markings on my notebooks this coming school year!!

So finally its August, which means in 4 days, I'll complete my 17th revolution around the Sun (don't ask, I got this from the Bill Nye website.). Whoop-a-dee-do-dah... Such a pity time passes so unnoticable fast when you're having fun. I wish I could turn back time and relive my childhood. So let this be a warning to those that are still young. Enjoy your childhood while you still can. Make the most of it. Slow down and take the time to do things that you enjoy. Cuz before you know it, you'll be thrown into the mortal hell known as adulthood/reality.

Which brings me to my recent saying, "Imagination is man's greatest gift, breaking the bonds that chains us to the harshness of reality." Never have I appreciated my sence of imagination as much as I do now.

Well that's all for this update. Hope you all have a nice summer!

PS. And just for fun, here's an interesting picture of Wonder Girl/Cassie Sandmark.

A digital cookie goes to anyone that can figure out what's wrong with the picture.
