   You have been waylaid by enemies and must defend yourself . . .
Alright, so I haven't been around too much, be it myO, MSN, or whatever. Basically, "Rome: Total Waranoma" has taken over my life . . . it looks like this could be even worse than my previous bout of "Civ Threeitis". So yeah, I'll TRY to pry myself away from the game whenever I can . . . most likely it'll be during when the brother's playing it or something . . . . . or something.

Anyway, I've been meaning to post for a while, since I haven't said anything about my own things since that story-thing took over my other life for the past month or so. So basically, here's where I fill you in on EVERYTHING that's been going on in my head ever since regular postings died down for a bit:

  • Exams. Scored good grades on the interesting courses. Scored less on the less intersting ones. By chance managed to not fail Latin 301, which was quite amazing.
  • In between exams, one of the Japanese girls from last summer came back to Vancouver with her family to visit. Brought them to my campus again, ate dinner with 'em . . . . . tried not to be too much of a dork with what little Japanese I knew (the person in question told me to speak more of it, so I guess I was safe).
  • Now that's school's done, I'm gonna start going to work more often again, which could be nice in the sense that I'll be getting paid. It kicked off with two consecutive graveyard shifts for the sake of inventorying(?). Plus side, no uniform, no customers; minus side, 12:15am-8:15 - 'nuff sad.
  • Haven't really started archiving "Nougat: Origins" just yet, but I'll probably get onto that some time this week . . . I hope.
  • The other day I felt like spending money after work, so I bought Rome: Total War (which has sucked up my life for many reasons) and a bunch of CDs . . . which is in the next point.
  • Bought the Episode III soundtrack which is happiness. That was an impulse-buy, though. Really, I wanted to go to HMV to buy a Tegan and Sara CD . . . which I did, which is in my car, which is love (way to get me hooked, ochibi-chan, really . . .). So along with that and a U2 live-concert CD, I'm pretty happy in spending my overtime money . . .hehe.
  • I think I'm gonna go steal the digital camera some time soon and get that "digital tour" of my room set up. Granted, it won't be digital like the fancy ones, it'll really just be a bunch of pictures of walls and stuff . . . ah well.
  • Through two other myO members, I got to exercise my technical writing knowledge. That said, if anyone ever needs someone to proofread an essay or anything, well . . . I gotta do something with my English major, right?
  • "Beck" (the anime) is over, "Bleach" keeps trucking on along with "Naruto" and . . . hm, guess that's all I'm really watching right now. Go fig . . . . . in any case, I started watching "Prince of Tennis". For a while, that almost sucked up my life, but then Rome: Total War came along and now, well . . . y'know.
  • That said, 'Beck (the ojou-chan) told me that Prince of Tennis ate her friend. Just sayin' . . .
  • I seriously need to start thinking about getting ready for Star Wars. Gotta call up the people, then find time to buy tickets some time, and all that . . . should be fun, methinks.
  • Fish & Chips get really gross after a while . . .
  • Still need to find a nailclipper . . . I mean I did, but it's just not the same . . .
  • I miss my dear in the east. It's not news per se, but I still do, y'know? Especially since stupid people are bothering her again . . . let's go burn them!
  • My hair is getting REALLY long . . . like, gravity affects it now! Gonna need to get a picture of that too . . . . . I'll probably cut it (after almost half a year) some time after Star Wars. I like to leave these things 'til after movies come out, y'know?
  • I had waffles for dinner a few days ago (during the graveyard shift days). I wanna go get more now. That said, The Waffle House is also love.
  • I wish the younger brother would go to bed so I could play Rome: Total War right now (I conceded the machine to him since I'd been playing most of the day . . . but still).


So that's me, pretty much. I hope are all doing well enough, and that life is not bearing down on you too much . . . and if it is, I'll kick its ass for you personally. See ya laters!
