WHOO!
YEAH!! WHOO! A 3-DAY WEEKEND! HELL YES! I HAVE SO MUCH STUFF TO DO!

..Well, not really. In fact, this is the most boring weekend I've had in a while.

I was planning on going to the mall today, but I'm flat broke and could not get a ride. I haven't bought a thing for months (other than the Eva DVD) and I still have, maybe, five dollars. This is very unpleasant, for Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life, The Sims 2 and the FLCL Soundtrack are all available now, if not soon. Plus there's the whole PlayStation thing..

Yeah, I like whining, and I bet you all like me liking it, too.

So, anyway, I've been playing Metroid Prime and The Sims since Friday night, out of anticipation for their upcoming sequels.

If you haven't heard, I've been replaying my Metroid Prime file from the beginning- I just got into the Impact Site a few hours ago.

It was strange, though. I was reading through my logs of Chozo Lore, and looking at the scenery.. It felt so sad. That's sort of pitiful, isn't it? Getting emotional over a few fabricated documents and some 2-year-old Gamecube graphics?

And, overall, I seem to be more emotional as of late. I've laughed hysterically at reruns of television shows I've seen thousands of times yet have never even chuckled at. Perhaps my bottled up emotions have gained enough pressure to bust out.

I've mostly spent today finding new skins for The Sims. It's sad, really, that I've had the game for so long and have never downloaded a new skin for the game. Today, though, I found:

-3 Excel Saga skins- Excel, Hyatt, and Ropponmatsu (Adult). There was Child Ropponmatsu too, but I didn't bother getting her. These skins are truly awesome- I don't think I've seen such detailed costumes in The Sims ever.

-2 Evangelion skins- I downloaded a crappy Rei one. The face is so messed up, but the body (Plugsuit) fits the series very well. Nice and detailed. I also found an Eva 00 skin on some Korean Sims Skins site. It acts as if the actual Eva's body is just a costume, and it wears regular male pajamas whenever it goes to sleep.

-Sephiroth- Hoo hoo, such an awesome skin. The cape is pretty cool, and the hair works nicely. This is probably the third best skin I found, next to Excel and Hyatt.

-DeathScythe, from Gundam Wing- This one works just like the Eva 00.. Except the shoulder pad things cause for frequent glitches and such. It's fun to have around for effect. Plus, his formal outfit comes equipped with his scythe and shield thingie.

I'm probably going to sleep in tomorrow, and vegetate some more after finding a good Asuka (and possibly Misato and Ritsuko) skin. Also, I've begun working on my entry for the next Rising Stars of Manga competition. First prize is $500, I believe, second is $250, and 8 others get $100. All are published in a manga anthologie book. It's a cool contest.

Also.. I want to make Monica something for Valentine's day.. Perhaps a drawing, with a deep, long, heart-felt letter.

Well, it's past midnight now, and I'm gonna go to sleep. Good night, everyone.
