| Hmm, I guess it's about time I wrote another post for this thing. It's been a while since I wrote an actual post and not just a Now Playing one. I guess I've been "busy" over Thanksgiving vacation, and then I haven't had much to write about since then. But I'll give it a shot, because I know how much you all like to read about my life, eh?
I guess I'll start from the beginning; Thanksgiving vacation, and how all that went. First off, it was really nice to get a week off from school, though of course, having that much time off also makes it that much harder to start again. But it was nice, and I certainly don't wish I hadn't had the time off, heh.
On Tuesday, Nov. 25, one of my older brothers came up from Santa Clara and stayed for a week. It was fun having him around for Thanksgiving, but not a whole lot actually went on. And one of my cousins (who's about the age of my oldest brother), her husband, and their two little kids were also here for Thanksgiving dinner. (We actually ended up having Thanksgiving dinner on Friday instead of Thursday so that they could make it; we went to Denny's on Thursday, which I thought was kind of funny). This was the first Thanksgiving where there wasn't a whole bunch of leftover turkey. We ate almost the whole thing -- and it was a big turkey, heh.
Over Thanksgiving week I got in a ton of play time on Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. I think I played about 30 hours or more during that week, and I ended up completing the rest of the 300 normal missions, so now I'm doing the extra ones. It was nice, since I could sit out in the living room/kitchen with my brothers and follow the conversation while playing FFTA at the same time. Even if it's only going a couple rooms away, portable systems rock. ^_^
So that's basically how my Thanksgiving vacation went. Nothing all that special happened; it was just a nice, relaxing week to spend hanging out with my brothers (and playing FFTA, of course). I didn't end up playing Mario Kart: Double Dash!! at all that week, but now I've started back up. Yesterday I finally beat every cup on every mode, 50cc through Mirror. Now I'm working on getting a perfect score (40 or 160 points) on every cup on every speed, and it's proving to be a real pain on 150cc and Mirror Mode.
So I guess that brings us up to the current time -- that being the last couple days. The day before yesterday I started showing signs of a fever, so I've been fighting it off with drugs (wink wink, nudge nudge) and lots of sleep. Seems to be getting better, and I haven't really felt all that sick besides that, so maybe it'll die off quickly.
And that's it. There's no more. Nothing interesting happens in my life, so just get over it... ... ... What, you're still here? I told you, that's it. Go. Leave. Turn off the computer and do something constructive with your life. ~_^ | |
