131. Homecoming, I'm coming, my sweet mistake.
by Seewa on November 26, 2008Comments are disabledGrrr. I went to school today to sign out, but the head teachers I need to see were all in a meeting. So now I have to go back again tomorrow. GAH!
Still anxiously waiting for DVDs to come out. Maybe I need to make a list for that too? Entourage Season 4 is already out but I haven't picked it up yet for one reason or another. I should. Maybe after Christmas. Other than that, I'm waiting for The Office Season 3 Part 2 and The L Word Season 5.
From now on, this entry will be about video games.
First of all, Phoenix Wright update - four cases down, one to go!
But now, here is my situation.
I want to get a new DS game. Yes, I know, I just got Phoenix Wright, but I want ANOTHER one. A more involved one. Now, I've narrowed it down to three games:
- Elite Beat Agents
- Kirby Super Star Ultra
- Trackmania DS
So, I want a game that will keep me busy for as long as possible, because after this one I don't know when I'll get my next game, since I'll need to start saving for Christmas and car rego and all. Depending on the price of the games, I'm almost considering getting two of them, and then nothing for the rest of the year.
Elite Beat Agents is one I've heard loads about, but only recently have I taken an interest in actually getting it. It's a rhythm game, where you tap circles and trace lines on the touch screen with the stylus in tune to the song. I've only heard positive things about EBA. Some people have said that it's really easy to complete all the difficulty levels - I don't know if that means 100% in everything. I'm really pedantic with games like this and I HAVE to get 100% in everything. And if I don't? I get angry.
Kirby Super Star Ultra - one of the games I've been waiting for. The concept here is that there's a bunch of different platformers in one game. There's also a few mini games I believe. I think there's over 10 games in total. This could keep me going for a good while, because of the amount of games in it. At the same time, again, I've heard this is really easy. I've never actually played a Kirby game, either, so I'm really stuck here. I've always said this is one game I'd get as soon as I could.
And finally, Trackmania DS. As the title would imply, it's a racing game. It's derived from the popular free PC game. From what I can tell, most of the actual races are against the clock, so it's striving for the best time. I've only got one racing title for the DS, and that's Mario Kart, which is an awesome game in my opinion. It looks like it runs smoothly and that the controls aren't whacked out.
What do I do? I'm going to be looking into this all tomorrow. Decisions, decisions... this is life altering!!!
ALSO:
Two more games to add onto my wishlist, that I totally forgot about - De Blob and Grand Theft Auto: China Town Wars. Both come out next year. I think De Blob's in March and GTA's in Feburary, but I'm not 100% sure. -
130. Oops...
by Seewa on November 23, 2008Comments are disabledI forgot to add to that list!
ELITE BEAT AGENTS.
Aw man, that game looks like so much fun. Seriously. I want to get that ASAP. Maybe even tomorrow depending on the price. Goodbye money!!! -
129. Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
by Seewa on November 23, 2008Comments are disabledI'm so excited. I've gotten a (significant) pay rise and back pay from my birthday. Weee! More money!
I also got my hands on the original Phoenix Wright game yesterday. But let my save me gaming discussion for last, since I'm sure that'll be the least interesting for anyone who dares to read this.
The manager at my work who used to yell at me has been awesome with me lately. He actually pulled everybody together to tell us that if we have a problem with him to confront him directly. If he does slip up again with me soon, I'll let him know, but for now all is sweet at work.
Ohh, also - I got a car today!! For my Christmas present (which I will use before Christmas, believe me), I'm getting my L's test, 'cause that mother costs like $55 or something. Shwee. I've said to my mum that we could one day maybe split the price of a CD player in the new car. She hasn't responded, haha.
On Wednesday, I intend on going to my school to sign out for good. It's very exciting. I've decided Wednesday because that's when my Drama teacher will be in and I want to say goodbye to her and all.
Sooo, I was very excited when I got Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney. It's an awesome game. Unfortunately, I'm up to the third case out of five, but so far this current case seems very beefy, and I'm hoping the same from the upcoming two. The first case was a pushover, designed to introduce the player to the gaming mechanics. Seriously, I beat it in like five minutes or something. The first case in PW: JFA was quite a bit more challenging, but in comparison to the other cases it was nothing. The second case was very interesting to say the least but there wasn't a point where I was completely beaten on what to do. This one, though, where I'm up to now - I'm stuck, I don't know what to do. And that's a great feeling.
Also, I've restarted The World Ends With You. I was up to a certain point, and I was completely stumped. I couldn't beat that damned boss. But now I'm going to play through it again and hopefully succeed over where I was previously. And I've picked up Animal Crossing for when I want to chillax, too, which I kind of neglected for a few months. Aww.

Eh, not really. I'm typing in here because I just feel like brain barfing a bit, whether what I am about to share is really worthwhile or just... bleh.
I hate feeling like an idiot. I've come to realise that. I guess it's because I really respect someone with intelligence, and I'd like to think I've got at least a little bit of it, so when I'm demeaned and made to feel inadequate in that sense, I feel like absolute shit.
Hmm. I just feel a little bit off right now. Tired? I don't think that's the right word. It's not really tiredness, it's just that I'm drained of everything and I don't feel like doing too much. I just want to be left alone for a bit, y'know?
In other news: I'm seeing my dad tomorrow!!! Or I should be. I'll be very let down if I don't, haha.
I'm in the mood for The Office again. Well, it's been non-stop.
Right now, I'm not thinking or re-reading what I'm typing, I'm just typing it, so bare with me.
Like I said, I'm just not feeling so vibrant right now. She's completely ignoring me. That's really infuriating and disappointing. I'm starting to think that I'm never going to see her again other than by pure coincidence, and even in that case it'd be a "hi/bye" affair.
Mothertruck. Seriously.
Ummm... yeah. I guess that's it. This has been a bit of a downer post, lawl.
Y'know what? I need chocolate. I have some cookies and cream ice cream in the fridge - that'll do. :D Hoorah for phenylalaline that may or may not be in the chocolate in said ice cream! -
127. Mmm Papi!
by Seewa on November 18, 2008Comments are disabledListening to "Circus"... friggin' hell. What a great pop album this is.
I've been more tired lately. Just been taking it easy. I'm guessing it's because school is over, and now I'm kind of drained after everything. I'm still in the process of cleaning my room. My desk is pretty much completely clean, there's just a few things on it that I need to fix up. I have some boxes - Guitar Hero boxes, rather - that I need to discard. I have my two GH guitars on a stand now, and my drums are set up next to them, it looks great. Just a little fine tuning in here and all will be perfect.
I'm gonna watch some episodes of The Office soon. I'm just in the mood for it, really. I tried to watch some Entourage yesterday and it didn't do anything for me, I just wanted The Office. I only recently (as in, a few days ago) finished watching through all of what I own of The Office, too, haha. I might see what I can find on Youtube and Google video and such... -
126. Schoooool's out... FOREVER!
by Seewa on November 13, 2008Comments are disabledNO MORE SCHOOL. EVER. AHAHAHAHAHA.
No but really, I loved school, so it's kind of sad, but like... it's cool to be done with the HSC now. Very bitter sweet.
I got totally dogged by her today. We're arranged in alphabetical order, and as I was looking for my seat I couldn't help but notice she was meant to sit right in front of me. She came by, collected her things, and moved well away from everyone else. I'm guessing she was sick or something. I didn't see her beforehand, and she'd left by the time I'd exited the examination room. Whether it was deliberate or not I don't know, but I was very disappointed to say the least - I got kind of excited when I knew she was going to be right in front of me.
I really don't know when I'll see her next. That upsets me.
Reunion was pretty cool. I didn't hang around as long as I had hoped. I left at around 10 or so with my friend who had to leave early. Everyone else continued on down at a pub nearby. I wish I had gone with them but I didn't want to completely leave my friend. Most people were pretty loaded though! Too bad I didn't drink that night, right?
Been having strange dreams lately. That's nothing new though. The last three have involved her, hahaha.
Something more happy - got Guitar Hero: World Tour! It's a lot of fun. The track list is a little unexpected, the songs are fairly soft, but hey, it's still cool. The new guitar is a lot more comfortable, too. Overall, I'm feeling good about the game. I haven't got all the songs yet, nor have I delved into the music studio much, so there's still facets I need to explore.
New music time! *hunts* -
125. I should be so lucky in looove!
by Seewa on November 10, 2008Comments are disabled"I Should Be So Lucky" = one of the best songs ever, period.
I feel generic, but it really describes me. Like, it's absolutely spot on. Damn you, heterosexualness! *shakes fist* (Yes, that's STILL going on! Like what the fuck!)
Actually, I kind of feel like I want to rant and ramble on a little more about that, but I don't think I will until after my last exam on Thursday. See how she behaves towards me then. She was kind of cold to me at my Drama exam, like she didn't really say hi to me or anything, we were both just kind of there. Then she bailed before I could talk to her! Gah!!
I'm so excited!!! I've got my Primary School Reunion tonight! AHHHHHH! I'll be meeting up with three or four friends beforehand who went to the same school as me, then we'll be heading over to the "venue". I don't know how long I'll stay there for. I know one of my friends has gotta be home between 8-9, so if I feel like leaving around then I'll just go with her, otherwise I might hang back a bit. I'll type up all the details and all that at some point. Not tomorrow though.
Because, tomorrow = NATIONAL GUITAR HERO: WORLD TOUR DAY!
And then an exam the day after that. Ahaha.
Aaand, I've decided that, at some point soon, I'll be getting a LAN adapter for my Wii. Then I can play my Wii online, which is mega shwee.
I've started throwing out all my school stuff... it's kind of scary and weird. But it's really good, because now my desk is looking semi clean. Obviously nobody who would read this would know this, but I used to have school work stacked up in front of the monitor, and another pile to the right of the mouse pad, and yet another pile up above the monitor, next to (and on) the printer, and the final pile underneath the printer, next to the monitor. That's all the stuff that was on my desk - there was more on my floor, haha. Anyway, most of that's gone. Once I finish cleaning it all today, I'll have so much more room on my desk, and it'll look tidy. I've already began decorating it - I've got my wrestling action figures lining the top of the desk, which is what I always said I wanted to do but couldn't because of my school mess. There's John Cena, Triple H, Rey Mysterio, Umaga, Chris Jericho, Edge and Carlito, in that order, in a zig-zag pattern.
Hmm... what else is new?
I'm still working through Phoenix Wright: Justice For All. I'm up to the final case, and we're in court, and it's meant to be a one-day trial, sooo...
Enough of this useless banter! I'm going to get to cleaning some more. I might even vaccuum my room with my new found need-to-clean.
I'm dreaming, that you're in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true
I should be so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love -
124. I withdraw shining glory!
by Seewa on November 07, 2008Comments are disabledGreetings.
Ah, I have no reason really to be writing in here. I'm just a little bored so I'm going to brain barf everything.
Let the non-sense commence!
I'm actually fairly tired. I've had a bit of a day. Now I'm on MSN, and the person I want to talk to won't talk to me. It's weird; I can't start a conversation with them, I feel out of place. Normally they'll just say "hi" to me when I sign in if they want to talk to me, but yeah. The person in question has snapped at me for talking to them too much (or teasing them too much, I can't tell), so naturally I'm cautious.
Fuck it, I'm talking to them. Typing it out in here and reading it back has made me realise how stupid my double standard is. And it's a hinderence to myself! Why would I do that?!
So now I'm just chilling out, listening to some HORSE The Band. SQUISH! THOSE FUCKIN' BUNNIES!
I want to aquire some more music. I get enjoyment out of laying in bed at night, playing Picross (yes, that's my pre-sleep activity), listening to something fresh. I'll have to look into something that might interest me. Maybe some more decent rock/pop punk? I'm fine as far as metal goes for now I think. I've been listening to pop a lot more lately, too - Kylie Minogue, Sam Sparro, etc, etc. I need something a little bit sugary.
Funny, that. I've got a non-stop chocolate craving. Like, I had this same craving about 2 weeks ago, so mum and I went to fulfill our needs. But now it's back. I've like, polished off the chocolate truffles we had in the fridge that she won in a hamper. AND I WANT MOAR. I'm like... the chocolate monster. And it's really strange too, because I'm not normally a big chocolate fan. I was always into the sugary sweets. Maybe it's the penylalaine (sp?) that I crave, eh? :D
Btw - I finished Twilight (just the first one). I have no intention on continuing. I don't get all the fuss...
HSC:
One of the reasons for my exhaustion. I studied all last night, all day, then did my Drama exam. Friggin' 19-20 pages in one and a half hours. That's the most I've ever written in an exam I believe - and it's in the shortest exam I'll have!! -
123. ... Wha?
by Seewa on November 03, 2008Comments are disabledOkay, so SongMeanings.net is now round and bubble like? Everything is... large. I liked it better when everything was small, it felt more organised, but I do like the round and shiny look, so hoorah.
And um, apparently we may now reply to other people's journals. FINALLY!! Now I'm fearful for what people could say back to me. I kind of liked the idea that I didn't know what other people thought. *smacks self in the head* Serves me right for sharing some ridiculous things to the world.
So, overall, nice update SongMeanings - it'll take some getting used to, but I'm happy with it all.
I'm calling it now: Phoenix Wright will KILL my HSC. I've been playing Phoenix Wright: Justice For All like non-stop. I'm actually going to go play it some more after I've finished this, haha. I realised after I had bought it that it's actually the second game in the series, so I'm playing it out of order, but whatever man, I'll end up getting all the games and I'll plough through them all in chronological order at some point. I'm currently up to the third case. My client is fuckin' creepy.
IN OTHER GAMING NEWS! NINJATOWN HAS BEEN RELEASED IN AMERICA. NOW HURRY THE FUCK UP AND GET TO AUSTRALIA!!!
Aaand, Guitar Hero: World Tour will be released here on November 12th. The day BEFORE my last HSC exam. You can bet that I will be buying it ASAP. I really have my priorities set out right, don't I?
