Lack of feathers scattered about implies this is because successful flight has been achieved, rather than a successful hunt by the feline, or some other bird-eating creature. Am quite relieved.


So, I only meant to get through the first few scenes... and now I'm in Haven. Nearly finished the first visit to HAVEN. I hate Haven.

On the upside, it's almost time to go back to Spargus. On the downside... well, down isn't right. I'm just a bit bemused to find myself playing the entirety.

Actually, maybe I'll stop after finishing the next round of Spargus missions. Or... maybe the one after that. BUT NO FARTHER. Stay out of the catacombs and ruins. BECAUSE NO AND I AM LAME. And never go back to Haven ever. Because, ugh. I forget how much I dislike Haven until I'm back in Haven again and then, oh, right. This is a miserable city! Even without the Baron! Torn, not even your awesome can save it. I'm sorry.

And then I'm going to go play something else, because I've got too many new (at least to me) games to play to keep revisiting games I've beaten before. My brother has FFXII, but there's other stuff. And I need to find time to get my mother to watch Supernatural, though maybe she ought to finish Life on Mars first. She's only four episodes away.


I think I need to break down and buy a paid account. And then find lots of fandom icons. Seriously, too many bad Ecco and Transformers and FFXI things and nothing interesting or pretty, and I'm feeling a bit in need of a serious revamp of, I dunno. Lots of things. I'd change around my layout if I had any idea what I wanted it to look like...

I was considering a haircut, but my hair is thick, and so too short, it'll poof all over and annoy me, and I like it long... I don't knoooow. Bleh. So evidently a LiveJournal revamp is a reasonable substitute? Whatever, self. Maybe I'll rearrange my room, too.


... I CANNOT BELIEVE WE ARE HAVING ANOTHER THUNDERSTORM. The weather is certainly very angry these days.

I have not expelled bouts of emo! I will now reward myself with chocolate.
Because (a) my brain will not shut up about several things it is convinced it is correct on; (b) I do not want to study Chemistry right now even though I have a test tomorrow; (c) I found my red memory card after almost five months and decided clearly this was cause for celebration.

And mostly because, shut up, I wanted to, at least to some point.

Anyway, I'm all of three missions into a replay of Jak 3 not really spoilery, but cut just in case )

I haven't updated this since Wednesday (technically it was Thursday, but it was Wednesday's notes). It has been hot since then, and I have been disinclined to turn my personal space heater laptop on. As such, all of my notes were hand written and I had to type them all up. I was bored.

I finished the game about an hour ago, so this goes straight through to the end!

As such, it is a bit long. )

Of course, I died a lot attempting this stuff.

I invent new ways to die sometimes! )

The total!

It's less than Jak II, but so are most things. )

I think of the three, Jak II gets my vote for hardest. No, not just because it had the highest death toll! Because of the racing! Argh, Zoomer racing.

I promised my brother I would finish Star Ocean before working on anything else. So! That is all for now.
Here is more in(s)ane commentary for Jak 3, as promised.

The sky is falling! )

And the dying continues!

Die, Jak. Die. )

I thought I didn't have work tomorrow, but apparently I cannot read the schedule and actually have Friday off. Oh, well.
Oh, well. My brother will just have to deal with it!

Short ramblings. )

No Death List right now. I plan on playing a little more after work tonight, and will post it up then.
jecca_mehlota: (Just say no.)

Alas, I cannot remember how to conjugate "to die" right now and am too lazy to go rummage through my old school notes and find it.

...I got my butt kicked. )

That is all for tonight!

More Deaths. )

I'm going to assume I'm at least at the halfway point by now. Maybe finishing Wednesday is possible!
jecca_mehlota: (Leap!)

Pan's Labyrinth came out on DVD recently and so, as I'm trying to save my money, I went out and bought a copy. Brilliant.

Worth it, though. It's a wonderful movie, if a bit gory and brutal at times.

I realized I only have until Wednesday to beat this game, so I am trying to hurry up. (My brother comes home Wednesday! Yay! But then he will want me to play ... whatever game it is he wants me to play, and I promised him I would, so.) I guess it is a good thing I've never had much in the way of a social life.

Yes, more video games. )

Death List!

Noncumulative Death Count. )

I think I pulled a muscle in my neck or something, and I have to go to work tomorrow and sling baking stuff about for twelve (twelve? I must have been looking at the clock and reflecting on the time or something) eight hours. This bodes ill.
Okay! First off, Transformers Theatrical Trailer 2. I cannot stop grinning. WHY IS IT NOT JUNE NOW?

More Jak. )

DEATH OCCURRED.

Naturally. )

Got my paper back. I, er. I'm surprised! I got an A. Teacher commented it seemed as though I had experience writing reports. ...well, yeah. Actually, what she wrote was, "She produced a first rate research paper - I have the sense that she has plenty of experience with research paper writing, as she clearly knows what she is doing. Her shorter essays were all well composed, well edited, and delightful to read."

... *warm fuzzies*
I ended up flipping a coin to decide between Final Fantasy XII and Jak 3.

Jak 3 won. )

And what would this be without a death count.

Death List! )

And now I go to bed! Tomorrow I find out how I did in English Comp. Nervous!
