Lots to watch.

The 4 hours of free period today at college passed very, very slowly. I didn't really do much at all in them except walk around and chat with people. One girl from my sociology class came up to me and started having a conversation purely because she recognised me, so I actually spent an hour or so with her, idely wandering to and from the local Sainsbury's. She's quite interesting, but it took ages for her to actually relax and start being herself. At first she was holding herself back to be polite, but at the end she was much louder and a lot more giggly. It certainly passed the time, and at least I now know someone in my sociology class. Apart from her I generally moved from person to person and that was about it. Unfortunately I'm going to have yet another four hours free on thursday, and on friday I only need to go in for a single lesson thanks to sociology being cancelled a second time. This means I'll spend a ridiculous amount of time out of the house on friday, just to have an hour of lesson, thanks to the trains and weird timetable. Le sigh. On the plus side I'll at least have the afternoon off, so it isn't purely annoying.

After college was the happy Games Workshop. I managed to get 3 games of warhammer 40,000 in, with a narrow loss and 2 downright victories. All three were fun to play, but the narrow loss was the best. It involved the most thinking I've ever had to do in a game before since my opponent has been in the hobby for one hell of a lot longer than me, so naturally he's quite a bit better with tactics. I'm quite please I managed to get so close, had the last turn gone differently I could have possibly scraped a draw. The other two games were simple slaughter, involving my army running forwards and shooting the enemy quite dead. Still it was entertaining, since the sheer amount of my own firepower tended to decide both games in the early turns. Not only that, but after I got home I saw that I'd managed to finish getting the first 4 'episodes' of Azumanga Daioh. This is pretty nifty, since it gives me something to watch after this post, and quite possibly something to do on friday when I get a few more. Since that's all the news I can think of, till next time.

Grenadier.

It was another short day at college today, since due to no psychology I managed to finish at 1.05pm. It was quite nice getting to go home early, and I aptly spent the time firstly reading webcomics, then happily watching anime. I've now seen the first 10 episodes of Grenadier, out of 12, and both the remaining episodes will finish downloading in the next 8 minutes or so. All in all that's good news. The plotline is, as expected, not amazing, but the animation quality is good and the fight scenes are pretty funny. Now it's nearing the end there are real promises for the most amazing and true gun-kata fights, so that'll be something good to watch. After I finish watching the series I'll have an hour or two on Guild Wars. This'll most likely be with my warrior so I can get him another level or two. It's not much, but it's still progress. He's still roughly in the first quarter of the game, storywise. I just paused in typing this to check Grenadier, only 4 minutes to go. Looks like it's moving slightly faster than I expected, heh. In truth I don't have much to do after Guild Wars, so I'll either play some Pangya or get earlier-than-usual sleep.

The forums have been moving quite slowly recently, most likely in part to work and education commitments tying all the regular visitors up. I don't mind that much, a small break of 'slow-flow' posts certainly helps me out, and allows me do move my time elsewhere. Generally this is anime and Guild Wars, heh. For tomorrow I'll probably have another vaguely boring college day, since after first lesson I actually have 4 hours of free period (thanks again to psychology). This means I'll definately either - read a lot of Neuromancer again, or chat to a large amount of friends. At any rate I'm looking forwards to Games Workshop after college since it'll be good to have a few games of Blood Bowl or Warhammer 40,000. Stopping rather abruptly, that's it for all the news today since not much has happened at all. As such, till next time.

Gun Kata.

I decided to write the post early today, since for the last couple of days I missed the midnight deadline and had to alter the time to keep up the '1 a day' post rule I self impose. So taa daa, slightly earlier post. Today I didn't actually play Guild Wars, since I simply didn't feel like it. Instead I had a nice sleep in till 4pm since a weekend is the only time I'll ever get to relax so much. I didn't really do much else today, but I did get round to watching the AMV Hell collection. Lots of it was mediocre, and some of it was very glitchy where it got stuck or skipped due to bad encoding, but quite a lot of it was funny. Lots of the Azumanga Daioh work was good, and has actually motivated me to get the series. I've already read the manga for it, so I figure I may as well. I also managed to find an anime version of gun-kata. Gun-kata is a fighting style made for the film Equilibrium. The film didn't have that amazing a plot, but being a mindless guy I liked it for the fighting scenes. Grenadier, an anime, has those very similar fighting scenes. It's like a ripoff of Trigun, with a blonde gun-toting pacifist, but the character is an incredibly busty woman instead. When they run out of bullets they throw up more from their cleavage and reload the gun with a smooth flick. It's quite funny to see.

The only other anime I've seen with Equilibrium-esque scenes is in Trinity Blood, where Tres Iqus, the cyborg guy, bursts into a room and blows everyone away. It's almost identical to the scene where Preston runs into the dark room filled with 'terrorists' and shoots them all in the dark. It's practically exact right down to the lighting, heh. Other anime hasn't had much progress with me on a whole, since there's still only 2 episodes of Neo Ranga for me to watch. Thankfully I managed to watch the newest episode of Mai Otome and a recap episode of Eureka Seven. The recap episode managed to cover all the first 26 episodes quite well as a overview, though naturally it could be viewed as overly simplistic. Still, it was nice to watch it and it reminded me of a few things lurking in the back of my mind that I'd almost forgotten about, such as Dominic. Since he hasn't really shown in the newer episodes all my focus was on Eureka and Renton. In more anime-ish awesome news there's an article about a Eureka Seven PSP game in NewType USA. The game looks good, but I need to do more research on it. It'd be nice to get it but pointless if it's only going to be in japanese since it needs the story really. As of yet I have no idea if it'll be released in America. At any rate, till next time.

Titans.

Today rocked. I had the ultimate sleep in, staying in bed till 5pm. I was awake for most of the day, but dozing off in a comfy warm bed. It was pretty cool. After that I was basically on the computer straight away. I finally managed to finish downloading the AMV perfect collection, which is basically a DVD full of anime music videos. One whole lot of anime music videos. It'll take ages to watch, so that's quite fun. The main highlight of my day was Guild Wars though. I tried the titan quests again and had a few failures, which wasn't all that encouraging. Afterwards though I managed to net together a team that took 2 hours to create since we had to wait to grab some monks. However we tried the Defend North Kryta Province titan quest. We beat it. We then did the The Last Day Dawns titan quest. We beat it. We continued onto the last Titan Source quest. We beat it. 3 titan quests -in a row- taken down. It was... incredible. Just incredible. We had barely any deaths. I only died twice, and that was during the running inbetween the missions so I doubt they even count. It was one of the best days I've ever had in Guild Wars, and it was just amazing. Now I can have my necro go back to the desert and complete all the other secondary class change missions. Then I can go about getting every single skill in the game. It's certainly something for me to do, heh.

Now I'll also probably spend more time working on my warrior character, purely because he's only level 10 and I guess I've been neglecting him somewhat. He'll most likely have finished everything, including the titan quests, by the time Guild Wars Factions is out. One of the most impressive things about today however is that Guild Wars didn't freeze at all. There were quite a few times where the screen paused for literally less than a second, but all it did was make me worry. Thankfully nothing went wrong. Had it frozen during a titan quest I think I would have killed something or someone, heh. In other news there's 2 more episodes of Neo Ranga for me to watch, so I'll most likely see them tomorrow. Since I have more free time, I'm now downloading another few shows of 2-Sense for something to listen to randomly and on the train. The last one I listened to was 17, some time ago. Since there are 87, I really should get a move on. Since overall Guild Wars and downloading is time consuming, I haven't really done much else today. As such, till next time.

Animarathon.

Ah, today was bliss. It was exceedingly nice not to have to go to college. I still got up kinda early (for a free day) at 9am-ish, since by 10am I had to be down the Games Workshop store. The game of Warhammer Quest was great fun to play, as I didn't get seriously injured, I got a nifty items, and I was reasonably valuable to everyone since I kept them unwebbed when mobbed by ridiculous amounts of spiders. After that game of about 2 hours I decided to wanted around Eastbourne a bit and did some very light shopping. All it really was included looking in Game stores at PC games and buying a few burnable DVD's. Not much, but an interesting way for me to spend my morning. For the afternoon I decided to go to Brighton. Naturally this was purely to go to Dave's Comics, and luckily they'd just received delivery of the febuary issue of NewType USA. Yet more anime and manga news goodness for me. Since I'd had my eye on it for some time, I also bought a large-ish anime figure. I think it was number 5 in a series, by Monsier-Bome or something, but it's basically a tall lady wearing a black and red short dress, with neko ears. It's a damn nice figure, and it was almost difficult to choose between that one and the bunny girl waitress figure from the same series. I actually had money to buy both, but I figured spending everything the day I got it was a bit... stupid. As such I'll probably wait a week or two to buy that one and just hope it's still there.

My evening was quite nice too. I ended up having an anime marathon, or what I refer to as an 'animarathon'. It has a nice ring to it. At any rate I ended up watching 21 episodes of Suzuka in a row. I would've watched more, but I'd already seen the first 5, so I ended up finishing the series. I only actually finished watching the last episode a few minutes before starting to write this. It was a good series and demonstrated quite a few problems that could be faced in real life, as cliche as they are. The ending I felt was about adequate, though it was left without a true sense of closure. Sure, it was what was expected and it seemed to be happy, but there wasn't actually any overt action on the part of the girl. It's a series I consider worth watching, though not exactly one of my favourites. An example of a good ending would be Fullmetal Alchemist, still one of my favourites. In a vaguely related bit of news, on Minitokyo the Bleach group reopened the colouring contest suince no one had actually entered it. As such I half a partially coloured picture that I really should finish. I actually started it the first time around, but never got around to doing most of it due to time commitments. Since I have till the end of feburary to enter I should be able to finally finish the damn thing. With any luck I'll win too, heh. So, till next time folks.

Second posting.

Well this is the second time I'm writing this, since the first time didn't send properly and I forgot to highlight it all and save. That sucks, but oh well. Today at college was normal for the most part, but there were a few good aspects. One of my friends decided to change her image slightly. She basically went from a really cute girl, to a damn sexy one. This was obviously quite.. strange to notice, since I'm so used to how she normally looks. It was still a very good look for her, so chatting to her brightened up my morning. Yeah, it shows I can be quite shallow, but I can't help appreciating incredibly attractive girls. I consider it an appropriate weakness, heh. Sociology was pretty fun too, It involved me chatting to the whole class instead of doing much work, though I still managed to finish it all. It took marginally longer. The conversation was quite random, but it certainly makes lessons more memorable. I'm not too fussed about passing or failing sociology really. I only took the subject to fill up my timetable since I didn't want to do english literature, politics or history. I dislike all three of those intensely. I'm only actually still on the sociology course since my 2 teachers for it are nice people, and if I do pass then I'll have another qualification to amaze employers with.

After college was Games Workshop, and I ended up playing a game of Man O' War. It's a nifty 'naval' game, and is basically Warhammer played on a larger scale with fleets. I got so horribly butchered in the first turn of the 4-way game, that by the beginning of turn 2 I'd already lost a few ships and most others had been damaged. My luck (and the wind direction) was so appalling that it was practically laughable. My opponents took use of that, laughing quite a bit. Even though I lost miserably it was still an enjoyable game to play, so I guess it wasn't a complete waste of time. After that I came home and watched the newest Naruto ep. It was reasonably good for a filler, and marginally closer to the whole manga 'feel'. It was still a bit strange where Naruto got beaten, considering in the past he'd kicked guys like Gaara, but I suppose consistency isn't the forte of filler episodes. Interestingly it's been stated that the Bleach filler arc will end with the febuary 14th special. After that it'll resume following the manga, and I'm fully looking forwards to seeing and hearing my favourite characters in the anime. Other than that yet again there isn't much to say. Here's hoping that this post goes through. Till next time.

On time.

Hahahaha! I managed to get a post written on time. Sweetness. Solty Rei and Eureka Seven were extremely good episodes. Renton's finally gained more self confidence in Eureka Seven, and as such the show's somehow become much more dynamic with how he interects with everyone. Solty Rei was slightly... unexpected... with what happened, but a cracking good episode all the same. I didn't get around to watching Yakitate today though, so I'll either watch it after this post or save it for the friday anime marathon. The translated Naruto chapter was just.... wow. I want the next chapter as soon as possible. It's a selfish notion, but gah, the chapter and preview just simply rock. Bleach was similarly nice in high quality, so it gives me yet something else to look forward to next week. College today was relatively boring, since it was only a half day. Just law and sociology to go to. Thanks to no psychology I'll actually have a 4 hour gap between lessons. This will provoke much boredom, so I'll either do some random work or just read a book. It'll most likely be Neuromancer by William Gibson. He effectively created the whole concept of cyber-space, and it's one of my favourite books. It's quite dark and gritty, but the story is told incredibly well (in my opinion).

Yet again I played Guild Wars today. Overall I didn't really do much advancement, since I only managed to get my warrior to level 10 and get 2 missions completed. With my necromancer I had a trip to the underworld. It's a pretty nifty place, but the denizens there are rather difficult to kill, especially when they're in teams with healers, warriors, etc etc. Basically they travel around in well balanced teams. I managed to get a chaos axe thanks to the kindness of someone else in the team, since quite a few were dropping but none for me. This obviously helps out my warrior, as I can freely change his attributes to axe instead of hammer, and he'll have a nice glowing weapon. I also managed to get a few more mundane items, such as shadow shields and such. They're always useful to have incase I need spares for another character in the future. Unfortunately before the trip ended my computer crashed, so they probably think I just left as I was dead at the time. That's quite annoying, but can't really be helped. I still don't know why the game freezes every now and then, and only with other people and not NPC parties. Ah well. Till next time.

Goodness in droves.

Today was good. It was a good happy day. I was told that for the next 2 weeks I don't need to go to psychology, since it's coursework sessions. I need to add page numbers to 6 more pages to finish of my coursework, mwahahaha. That should take me at the very least slightly under 2 weeks, heh. Also I was informed that on friday there won't be an english or sociology lesson. Coupled with no psychology means I actually have friday off. Excellent news, heh. Since I just got a DVD off a friend from Games Workshop that has episodes 6 to 26 of Suzuka on it, I shall most likely finish off that series then. Games Workshop after college was similarly good. I got more painting done, then managed to play a game. It was a large game of Warhammer 40k with 4 people, 2 per side. It started out very well, then evened out later on which resulted in a narrow loss for my side. I didn't really mind though, since I completely annihilated the person up against me on the other side of the board, heh. That was incredibly entertaining, since I frankly took his army apart with minimal losses. The main drawbacks came from the second opponent, who had not only enough guns to hold off my team mate, but also me. The firebase he made was insane. so many guns that even with good armour my men got picked off one by one.

Apart from the good news of Suzuka, the anime world has also been moving well. The updates for Solty Rei, Yakitate Japan! and Eureka Seven are both out, as are the translated chapters of Bleach 111 (high quality) and Naruto 291. Sheer uber coolness on both counts. Funky. I'll most likely watch the Solty Rei and Eureka Seven episodes tonight once they finish downloading, since I'm using IRC to get them. I'll use a torrent for Yakitate, since I'd rather not split my connection up between many high-speed bots. A ridiculous amount of other people is better, since I'll be able to help others get it. I like the series that much, heh. In Solty Rei it'll certainly be interesting to see how Rose reacts to the news she got in the last episode. Zomg, drama in anime. Who'd have thought? I'll not be playing Guild Wars tonight, mainly due to time restrictions. It's a shame indeed, but tomorrow is a half-day at college anyway, so I can easily play it then as well as watching Yakitate. That's actually all the news for now, so till next time.

Ease.

I spent yesterday night awake, rather than asleep. After chatting on Skype for quite a bit, and staying on it infact whilst being afk, I started revision. I actually started revision with a huge mug of coffee so strong it looked near black even with half milk. I kid you not. It tasted incredibly bitter, even with a large amount of suger in, but it had the desired effect. I didn't feel tired at all, and so from 8.30pm to 5.50am I constantly revisised in a 'read through notes - 15 minutes break - read through notes' cycle. Since I always have problems with names this helps me to eventually remember them by hammering them into my head so often that I can't fail but know them. Overall it actually worked, since when I went into the exam and looked at the question (and was still wide awake) a brilliant glow came over me as I thought, "Yeah. I know these questions." It was similar to my law exam in that I managed to put pretty much everything down with all the evidence, research studies, evaluative points and so on and so forth. The rest of the day was pretty uneventful, though in psychology Mark, my teacher, did let the whole class go after about 20 minutes and we did absolutely no work, since he figured we'd had enough psychology for the day. An excellent choice, heh. What was rare about today was that I actually enjoyed the exam, since I knew I knew everything needed. It's was a pretty cool feeling.

Once home I promptly wrote up my english language homework which was put off from last week due to revision, then watched all the anime I'd falen behind on. 2 episodes of Mai Otome, an episode of Solty Rei, and an episode of Blood+. All in all they were pretty cool. I also went on Guild Wars, naturally, and finally managed to finish one of the 'Defend' quests. It was the Defend Denravi one, and was quite enjoyable if you missed a part out. By not talking to Evennia at the beginning like you're supposed to she doesn't follow you. Since she doesn't follow you she won't die. Since her life is assured the party and I could die as many times as we pleased, and we eventually won through attrition. It was immensely enjoyable. I also tried Defend North Kyrta Province with a different (better) group, but the quest is the most insanely hard damness I have ever tried. Titans pop out of the damn woodwork. On both occations we got incredibly close, only to be overpowered by the sheer amount of titans arrayed against us. Ah well, I can always try again next time. In Skype Kaizanu managed to get her microphone to work, she has a nice voice. Accented, but not overly stereotyped. Plus the chinese sounds cool. Other than that not much has happened, so till next time.

ISP issue.

I would've posted yesterday, but my ISP failed which meant that I was without an internet connection. Not much happened yesterday overall. I basically woke up at 11am and did more revision. I was vaguely surprised that I managed to get up so early in the morning to be honest. Two days ago I didn't go to sleep at a normal time, since I stayed up till 3am yesterday morning chatting to friends using Skype. It's a pretty cool piece of software, since I can hold voice conferences and actually talk to people rather than type. This is nicer for me than Ventrillo or Teamspeak since I always seem to fail at using them, and I'd rather not spend money to get a set area to chat. At any rate on Guild wars I was testing out quite a few various builds, and some of them are pretty cool. One combination with the new classes allows the character to teleport in to the middle of a group of people and practically immediately use lots of area of effect fire nuking spells. You manage to do a shed load of damage in a short space of time. Then you can just teleport out again by stopping the use of your own skill and you're safe once more. Used in conjunction with 2 warriors going in and attacking coordinated targets it can be a very deadly tactic. I also has assorted fun in messing with existing builds and seeing which skills I could add to 'tune' them for my style of play. Since I prefer Necromancer characters I tend to go for a 'health steal' approach whilst staying reasonably far back. It's almost like being a supporter, but with a damaging rather than healing role. It certainly saves me getting overly hurt, heh.

Yesterday after I got through my morning revision I actually went to Crawley and watched a film – Underworld Evolution. It was a nifty, nifty film. Gee damn it was cool. Yet more vamps and lycans slugging it out, and Markus and William the original progenitors of the two races were just 'ard. Kate Beckinsale was also quite a good point of the film. Two words is enough to describe the sheer goodness. 'Tight Leather'. Whilst in Crawley I popped into the local Games Workshop and had a chat with all the staff members I used to talk to regularly with before I moved to Polegate. It was quite nice seeing them all again, and of course they definitely haven't changed at all since it's only been a year and about 4 months. After that I pretty much came home and went through all my psychology notes, yet again. It was boring fodder stuff, but I still need to get it all into my skull. This unfortunately meant that since today was the day before the exam I constantly read for hours and hours. I also wrote yet more damn notes for names, and I still don't know them. Damn it. I'm just thankful that I only had 2 exams this time around. In june I'll have 8. That will not be fun. Ah well. Till next time then.

Early posting.

Hmm. I didn't realise I could actually post on my blog from college. This opens up a whole new realm of circumventing boredom. The only bad point is that eventually they will probably be blocked, and I'm currently typing this instead of doing psychology revision. Doh. Oh well, I'll probably manage to do the revision later, I still have 2 hours and 20 minutes of free left, out of 3 and a half hours. I haven't actually started revision yet, so I really should. I will definately get it done, since I have to at least get a B overall, so messing up the exam is definately not a good thing. Since I have spare time to ramble, and since this will save me tme this evening (yay for more revison) then I may as well talk about what I need to revise. There are 9 areas in total, 3 subareas within 3 larger ones. In Social Psychology I need to learn about 'Nature and Causes of Agression', 'Altruism and Bystander Behaviour' and 'Media Influences on Pro and Anti Social Behaviour'. For Physiological Psychology I have 'Biological Rhythms', 'Sleep' and 'Dreams'. Lastly there is Comparitive Psychology with 'Human Reproductive Behaviour', 'Evolutionary Explanation of Mental Disorders' and the 'Evolution of Intelligence'. As you can se some of there aren't quite the most interesting of subjects, but since I have to be able to answer 3 exam questons on any aspect of any of these, I have quite a bit of work to do really. All for monday. Fantastic. It doesn't help that I also have english homework for monday too, where I need to write up an essay on language change.

On the Soul Society forums yesterday there was a very short lived member called SIGMApoe, or something very similar. In short he found the RP to be very strict and considered me to be picky, amongst other insults. This quite aptly gave me a reason to explain why I held and maintain rules, to promote quality R on the forums and so on. It was actually a nice experience to finally have someone complain about the forums, since everyone else seems quite happy with it. If I never get negative feedback I must be doing smething wrong within my totalitarian rule of evil terror (replete with NPC armies of doom). I also played a good amount of Guild Wars yesterday after I did my allocated revision, and there's a preview weekend starting today at 5pm GMT for everyone, even people without the game. It's about Guild Wars Factions, a preview of the spring release and will allow people to test two new classes in a large-scale PvP weekend. This is ultimately uber-cool, since one of the classes is the Assassin. Yeah, funky. You don't need a copy of the game, just go to the Guild Wars website, click on the little weekend event banner, download the client, and use the Europe or America free liscence key. It only lasts for a few days for the weekend, but it's still quite cool. Any skills unlocked during the weekend become immediately available once you buy Factions when it comes out, so that's just plaqin nifty. Obviously if you use the free liscence and game client, don't get rid of it otherwise the unlocked skills may be lost. I think that's how it works at least. At any rate if you join, look for a character called 'Xanthier Lizarous' and whisper me. Now I really do have pressing revision to do, so till next time.

Success.

This morning wasn't exactly pleasant, but thankfully it was still tolerable. When I flipped over the law exam and read the four question, of which I had to choose and do two, my immediate thought process was 'Oh crap, long words.' After a second or two to actually pause and start reading them the nice ease of relaxation settled upon me as I realised I could actually answer all four pretty well. So off I went, writing at an adequate pace and feeling incredibly bored after just a few minutes. The rest of the exam passed like that pretty much, and afterwards it was nice to have the feeling of relief that it was over. Unfortunately I still need to do another psychology exam on monday as I've stated several times now, so 'dang'. I managed to read through pretty much all my psychology notes this evening, but it won't be fun doing the same tomorrow, or spending a ridiculous amount of time revising over the weekend. I'll probably go and see a film on saturday since I can't tomorrow. This is because my dad and step mum have been partaking in a pantomime all week and they want me to see it. Though I dislike pantomimes, mostly because I think they are a complete waste of time, they did ask me to go and see them, so I figured I should since they give me money.

The film I'll probably see is Underworld Evolution. Though the first film didn't have a particularly good plot, it did look 'zomg' cool. Yes, it was that nifty. The elite guy at the end, a blend of vampire and werewolf, is apparantly back in the new film and hopefully will be up against the vampire elder that should have been awakened, and was at the very end of the film in theory. Markus I think. At any rate in the trailer Markus has large bat wings and looks nicely evil and bat-vamplike. This is good. Very good. In fact I'm actually downloading the trailer now, to keep watching, so happy times are here again, till monday. I also have an episode of naruto to watch, so I'll most likely to that before go to bed. That's really all the news there is for today, so till next time.

Last minute.

Unfortunately the title doesn't refer to the time of this post, but rather yet more law revision. Since today was a half day at college I originally planned to spend all afternoon revising. This did not happen for a few reason, the two most important of which I feel like saying. One, I've done so much cramming lately I wanted a rest, and two, I felt like playing Guild Wars. Since both my dad and step mum agreed with me (zomg) I spent the afternoon actually relaxing and having fun. I managed to completely clear Pre-Ascalon with my second keepable character, i.e. doing every available quest, and graduated at level 7. I then just went and got runners to take me to pretty much the last location, Droknar's Forge, in order to buy my Warrior/Necromancer the very best platemail armour, stst-wise. Aesthetically I couldn't be bothered to spend 15k per piece of armour for the uber-cool looking set, since it's a second character. I didn't really have the gold either. After I got the full set of platemail I have about 6 to 8k gold for my first character left, and about 110 gold for my second. Looks like I need to get earning again... On the plus side I did manage to complete about 5 of the 'new' quests and am therefore only a tiny amount away from level 8. It should be pretty funny doing the early missions with the best armour, heheheh.

After this post I'll of course be actually reading through my law notes again, revising cases, and then happily going to sleep, absolutely stress free, to wake up tomorrow morning feeling refreshed, ready for the day, and happy to take an exam. Yeah. Right. I'm honestly not overly stressed about it, but I still dislike the pressure of needing to do very well in order to keep my offered places at University. Dang it. At least I know most of the course pretty well by now, so the exam shouldn't be an overly large problem. Not only that but Because I passed law so well last year, I have a 'buffer zone' of marks. This means that I could in theory get 0 marks on this test and still get an A if I do the two others well. Or alternatively I could get c's and b's and still get an A overall. That's a nice little 'backup' plan to have, which does take away some of the weight. When I explained this to my dad though he was at first happy, then proceeded to lecture me about not getting complacent. yay for the support there. Anyway that's enough of my rambling, so till next time, when I'll have taken my law exam and will be revising furiously for my psychology exam. Doh.

Hurried.

Dang, I've only just managed to get around to posting thanks to Games Workshop. Whilst there I had a game of Blood Bowl and damn it was close. I was using a staff-created team of Spites (from Wood Elves) and they're basically a fast dodging team. The end score was 2-1 against me, but I -almost- equalised at the very last turn. Dang it was very close indeed. It was a fantastic game to play though. I also got a bit more painting done for the first time in a few weeks so that was nice. At college earlier today I actually practiced on the diabolo for an hour and 20 minutes non-stop. In the humid common room this was naturally quite wearing, and so I felt quite tired and worn out by last lesson. Immediately going to Games Workshop after I got home probably didn't help me. Anime-wise I'm currently downloading Solty Rei 11 and Gun X Sword 15 on IRC, and I've already got chapter 208 of Ah! My Goddess to read in a short while. I'm kinda short of time today since it's past 11pm and I still want to watch the anime, read the chapter, do more law revision and play Guild Wars. I seriously doubt I will have enough time.

Also after my two exams I've been told by my step mum to get a part time job. She reckons at my age getting pocket money is a bit off (but damn it, I like free money...) so it looks like I'll actually have to look around and work otherwise I'll have very little spending money indeed. Ah well. I'm definately not going to work in a bloody supermarket though, since that is just absolutely rubbish. Lots of students do of course, but it's craptacular. I worked in one briefly before and it was just incredibly rubbish. I'll try to get a nice job in a bookstore or even a restaurant or something. That should at least make it varied and not too boring. Anyway I'm running out of time, so I'll end it there for now. Till next time.

Retrospective.

I overshot posting by a bit so I set this post back 2 hours to get it on the right date. It's cheating I know, but meh I don't care. At any rate I spend most of today revising law cases. There's 135 different law cases to learn, and I'm pretty ok with most of them now. I just need to learn 'parrot fashion' which cases are for which section. If I can get it to that stage then the exam will be simple since I can note down all the relevant cases before I answer the actual question. It makes things flow a lot smoother. On happier news I bought a diabolo too. It's a slightly smaller one (and therefore lighter) so it's spin duration isn't as long as the larger versions. I also need to get a proper nylon cord instead of the 3-twist twine stuff it came with. It's not too shabby though, in that I can still do the tricks I already know on it, so I'm sure it'll get better. My dad is going to get some heavy duty washers for me to attach to both sides. This'll obviously bult the weight up, allowing it's overall spin speed and duration to increase whilst still being small enough to perform quite a few nifty tricks. So all in all it's pretty good really.

In Guild Wars I didn't manage to do any more big quests since they kept going wrong, and I kept failing regardless of which group I was in. They are ridiculously hard quests. Damn. Eventually I decided to make my second keepable character anyway, and made a Warrior/Necromancer cross. It's pretty cool whacking something in combat whilst at the same time stealing it's life through necro skills. The plan works, mwahaha. Well on low level creatures in Pre-Ascalon anyway. I'll probably finish as many as the Pre-Ascalon quests as I can be bothered with before killing my way to level 7. After that I'll go to Post-Ascalon (i.e. not the newbie area) and I'll be able to get gold from my other character, as well as handy weapons for a warrior. That way I'll be able to be run straight to Droknar's Forge to buy the best armour in the game, then I can happily chop my way through all the missions. All in all I'll more than likely have my warrior up to level 20 and ascended within 2 months if I play the same amount as I do now. Considering it's gone down to just a few hours every few days that's not too bad really. At any rate, till next time.

Whoops.

Ara, my bad. It seems like I missed a post yesterday. This was probably because I did a stupid amount of revision of law - murder and manslaughter (voluntary, involuntary, corporate and all the god damn sub sections) and it took some time. Afterwards to relieve stress I played on Guild wars by a hefty amount till 2am then just went to sleep. I was out like a light, heh. On the plus side I'm here now, so it's all good. Hurrah. Basically on Guild Wars I had my character finish the large Defend Droknar's Forge quests with a cool group of people. That was yesterday. Today I finished a smaller quest and changed secondary profession to monk (I miss my fire skills....) and I did another 2 reasonably easy quests to gain the very last possible 30 attribute points. My character is effectively 'maxed out' stat-wise. The only big missions I have left are Last Day Dawns, Defend North Kryta Province and Defend Denravi. Each of those 3 give 20,000 exp each. Damn eh? Most quests give either 500 or 1000, even at the end of the game. After I finish those 3 I'll either go around and get shedloads of monk skills or I'll make my second planned character. It's most likely going to either be a Mesmer/Ranger or a Warrior/(Necromancer/Mesmer). So many choices, heh.

Later today, well after this post, I'll be doing yet more happy law revision which'll involve going through about 60 to 80 cases to try and memorise their names in relation to the facts. Since case names are my biggest, and pretty much only, problem this should help a lot. If it doesn't someone will die on monday as I eviscerate their corpse and hunt down their family. Guild Wars won't be anouth to get rid of that stress y'see. My exams come ever closer, with law being only on thursday. Dang. After that it'll only be 4 days to psyhology, so some of my precious law revision time will have to make way for psychology since I don't want to fail that either. Curse examinations, I always get stressed before them, yet during them I'm perfectly normal. Gragh. At any rate my online time will consequently suffer this next coming week as I spend more time panicing and making sure I get good grades. It's a noble sacrifice, and I just hope my poor computer will be ok without constant eroding use, heh. In a long term view all this stress should help motivate me, and by the time I fully finish messing around in Guild Wars the second chapter of it will be out in march. Pretty nifty really. That's about all for now, so till next time.

Revision looms.

I'm getting reasonably good at the diabolo now. I can pull off a strange x-crossed string trick and another called the bow and arrow. They look pretty cool, especially when done one after the other. The trick is to get a ridiculous amount of spin going then it doesn't just die halfway through one. I can't finish them every time, but I'm rapidly improving and can manage them more times than not. It's pretty funny really, since the friend who most recently bought one (mentioned 2 posts ago) now won't let me borrow his since he's afraid I'll get better than him. It really makes me laugh since I already am. In theory he should be able to easily catch up, but he keeps saying he can't practice at home. Fair enough then, it may take him some time. I also had a fair amount of the day with my hawt sexah friend. That immensely cheered me up, and the ego boost when doing diabolo tricks infront of her was stupidly insane. Gee damn I was happy and confident today. Magic the Gathering cropped up too. Out of 3 games I won 2 so it was pretty good going, though my mate's luck was atrocious in the second game. He had 1 mana out on the table for 5 turns. On the 6th turn he got another mana. Woo. When I spoke to my dad about my finesse (er, well nearly) at the diabolo he actually said that if I wanted I could get another one. It's rare for him to spontaneously offer, but it was pretty cool. I probably will get one of my own, then I don't have to keep trying to borrow one.

Once I got home I had the happiness of my computer, and assorted searching for updates, listening to music and watching anime ensued. Eureka Seven had an update, as did the Bleach manga, in a way. If you're wondering about the Bleach chapter, just download it and see, heh. Nanashi fansubs are still doing an excellent job with Eureka, and it's good to see the characters again, full of resolve. Since Shuffle! finished I've started getting the already completed series Suzuka, subbed by Lunar Anime. Since I'm used to the quality of Lunar's work due to Bleach I'm certain the subbing will be top notch. Apparantly the series is vaguely harem-like, though the main male character actually likes a certain girl from the very beginning. It's a common premise but meh, as long as it's interesting I'll watch it. Plus character designs are always good to see. However since I currently have 7 torrents downloading (and 1 finished seeding) in utorrent, and since my overall torrent speeds seem to be most commonly low, this could take quite some time to get. Hopefully the Bill Bailey shows won't take too long. Neo Ranga is still chugging away, chipping slowly at the remaining 4 and a bit GB to get. Le sigh. At least by next week at the latest I'll have a ridiculous amount of stuff to watch and read. It should keep me busy for a few days. Till next time.

Just made it.

Heh, I almost forgot to make a post today. That would've irked me slightly since I would've remembered tomorrow. Keeping this place updated with random goings on helps me get into a rhythm, allowing me to do everything else pretty much to a happy sequence. At any rate not much happened today. I went to classes, finished off an exam question in Sociology, listened to more 2Sense since I'm going through 2 the Ranting Gryphon's show archive, chatted to friends etc. As for the shows I've now heard the first 15, all at an hour or so long. There's about 88 overall. This could take a while since I manage one a day, and don't always listen to one. The forums are also nice and updated, so that's relaxing too. I could choose to watch anime, but since only 2 episodes of Neo Ranga are done I figure I'll wait for a few more to watch all in a row. Though there's 48 episodes and I've only watched the first 2, they're only 15 minutes long. Since I watch hardcoded subbed anime at twice normal speed this is only about 6 or 7 minutes after I miss out the credits. Therefore a little marathon with many eps at once is better than just watching 2 and needing to wait ages for the next few.

I've been practicing the diablo/diabolo since 2 of my friends own one now. It's quite funny, I can manage throws easily, and can get 4 bounces. The 5th always fails since by then the spin's near the end, but oh well. There's one other trick I can occationally manage, but that's about it. It's not too bad for roughly an hour or so of practice. Other than that not much has happened, though I did colour a picture for one of my diabolo mates in photoshop. He'd already coloured it, but wanted me to do it too, probably for a different viewpoint. It was a pretty good fox picture. After that I did yet more law revision, which was tedious to say the least. The main problem I have is associating case names with facts. I know the points of law, what happens in the cases, and the theories, it's just the damn case names. Oh well. Unfortunately this'll have to be the end of today's post since I've simply run out of stuff to talk about. Whoops. Till next time.

Dog Soldiers.

Well damn. I spent a good few hours with my hawt sexah friend again today as we both revised, or rather had a pretty damn cool conversation. I've noticed I'm starting to really look forward to seeing her now, and that just sucks. It's a large inconvenience merely because my luck with that kind of matter is remarkably poor, plus I doubt she's single. Hmm, a conundrum. On the plus side it at least made my day fantastic, so I guess I can't really complain, heh. I also managed to play a few games of Magic The Gathering with another mate (and won, mwahahaha) before going to Brighton with him and yet another friend. The whole purpose was to buy a diablo for my other mate, but I went into Dave's Comic's again to have a look around. gee damn they had a really, really nice anime figure in there. Since I'm currently broke I had to resist stupid amounts of temptation and just about managed to leave the store after prying my own fingers off of the packaging. I wish I had more money, heh.

I also got around to watching Dog Soldiers once I got home whilst the hour-long special of Bleach downloaded. It's quite a cool movie, and the werewolves looked similar to, but much cooler than, those that were in Underworld. They looked more wolf-like rather than generic lycan. Bleach was pretty cool too, and was topped off with the fact that I found another group who picked up Solty Rei. Hurrah! Therefore through the power of IRC I've gained episode 9 and am currently in the process of getting episode 10. Pretty cool news overall. I also managed to burn about 25GB of anime onto DVD, freeing up a nice section of my hard drive which is handy, and bringing me back down to about 59GB used out of 300. It's nice to have a hell of a lot of space, since I can burn stuff at my leisure instead of leading the hectic life by juggling what I can fit on my computer. There's still 12 volumes of Card Captor Sakura to read on my comp, so I'll manage it when I don't have to do insane amounts of revision. Yeah, I know the series is quite a bit girly, but I liked it a lot when I was much younger and the character designs are pretty good. Clamp is a manga steamroller after all. That's about it for now, so till next time.

Not much.

I don't have much to write today really, but I'll certainly try at least. College went quite normally, though I had to write down the brief facts of, and point of law for, lots of law cases. That was more tedious than anything else, and tomorrow I'm going to have to create revision packs for law and psychology since my exams are on the 19th and 23rd. They're now getting quite close so I really should revise. Some of my friends who're doing retakes are unlucky enough to have already started exams, so this week will probably not be overly enjoyable for them. During college I spent quite a hefty amount of time hanging out with my best friend and chatting with her. We spent ages just having a small meal and a coffee at a small Starbucks which is set inside a Sainsbury's close to the college. That made my day since I always enjoy spending time with her. I also chatted quite a bit with another of my hawt sexah friends since she sits next to me in english and opposite me in psychology. That obviously brightened my day a lot more, heh.

After college was Games Workshop, and I actually played a game this week too. Warhammer, where I used 500 points of chaos. It was roughly close till halfway through then half my army died, which heralded the 'I'm screwed' period. Even so it was pretty enjoyable so I didn't mind losing, heh. I managed to buy more burnable DVD's from a nearby shop too so I can partially empty my hard drive again, and I also nabbed the film Dog Soldiers. In 2002 when it was 'new' I never got around to seeing it, and it seems quite funny so I figured I may as well. I'll probably watch it this weekend or something. I also managed to watch the first 2 episodes of Neo Ranga. It seems reasonably interesting, so I guess I'll get and watch the full seires. Though there are 48 episodes each one is only about 15 minutes long so they pass quite quickly. Also an update for Blood+ and the last episode of Shuffle! was released today, so I'm looking forward to watching them, especially Shuffle! It'll be good to see how the series ends, since the penultimate episode had a vague cliffhanger in it, to the extent that I really wanted to see how everything ends to get closure. Since it's a good series I'll be quite disappointed if it has a crummy ending. I can only hope, heh. Till next time.

Lonesome.

Today was a day of mixed blessings. I managed to beat a friend at Infected on the PSP, overloading his game with a ridiculous amount of Zombie Xan's. That was fun. I also spent a good deal of time chatting to another of my incredibly sexy friends, and her company really brightened up my day. When I got home I watched 12 episodes of anime, the last 4 of Full Metal Panic and the first 8 of FMP: The Second Raid. Though impressively cool, the last few episodes of The Second Raid are quite disheartening, since Souske and Kaname are seperated without a goodbye. It got me thinking overall, and another of my friends got dumped today and she was pretty upset. All this combined made me feel quite emotionally detatched, and quite 'hollow'.

In my emotional post before I may or may not have pointed out how lonely I often feel, and tonight it just came up again. Le sigh. On the plus side the last few episodes of The Second Raid should be done in a few hours so I can finish the series. I can then get closure. Not only that but chatting to friends on MSN and AIM has made me feel quite a bit happier and more tolerant at life in general. So not everything is as lonesome as certain emotions may suggest. Other than that there isn't any news at all, so huzzah for being concise. Till next time.

Missions.

Well late yesterday and today I decided to play some Guild wars, and I had a lot of fun. Yesterday I spent a good few hours plwing through the game and managed to complete 2 of the last 3 missions. Today I nailed the last one. That means my character has effectively 'finished' the game mission-wise. It's now possible for me to change secondary classes which will open up quests everywhere allowing me to get more skills etc. It's tempting to simply cycle through all the classes to unlock as many skills as possible then create a damn good PvP character. The main downside is that I think changing seconday class gives a negative effect to overall armour, but meh. It's either that or create a whole new character, which I may do anyway. My character only need to the two finishing quests, defending Droknar's Forge and North Kryta respectively, before the whole game's plot is done. Then it'll be a wait till march for Chapter 2 to be released, heh.

I've also managed to get up to episode 20 of Full Metal Panic. Since I've already watched FMP Fumoffu I can move straight onto FMP The Second Raid once I finish the first series, and that should happen tomorrow. Though a good deal of the Second Raid needs to be downloaded I have the first 6 episodes ready and waiting, so that's all good. I've also noticed that my 100th blog post was 3 days ago. It didn't really dawn on me till now, so 'woo' I guess. It's yet another vaguely missed milestone. I guess I need to aim for 150 now. Not many to go then. I'll most likely go to bed early again today, I seem to be getting tired much easier lately after being up since 6am. Since I usually get up later that could be why, but it's probably through overuse of the computer since it makes my eyes feel quite heavy after 10 or so hours straight. It's most likely going to make me horribly myopic, or rather moreso since I'm already very shortsighted, so meh again. Till next time.

Missed out.

I missed out a post yesterday. It's a bit unusual for me to do so, but after yesterday I felt like sleeping quite early. The sociology report I did only actually took an hour and a half rather than 3 to 4 hours, and I ended up with nearly 5 pages. I had to change the text size to 10 to fit it all onto just the required 4 pages. All in all it was pointless worrying really. After I got home I read a bit and updated everything on the computer but I still wore out quickly. It's probably because I eat sporadically and rarely have breakfast. Meh. At any rate I had a bath and the hot water almost made me fall asleep. After that I just thought 'to hell with it' and didn't watch any anime and instead went to bed at just before 9pm. That's about 5 or 6 hours before I usually go to bed, heh. By the time I woke early this morning there were another 4 episodes of Full Metal Panic to watch. That was pretty cool waking up to that. I promptly watched them, and the series is frankly just cool. I've now managed to watch the first 12, but there's only another 16 or so hours till I can watch the last 12 too. I quite dislike slow torrent speeds, le sigh.

Anyway today I decided to go to Brighton, and went to Dave's Comics. It's one of the most amazingly best shops I know. I was lucky enough to grab the last copy of January's NewType USA and it's full of anime and manga goodness. I also picked up quite a cute litte figure with a similarly cute thin manga book. It's full colour, has good character designs, and is completely in japanese so I don't have the slightest clue what's being said, heh. It's title is Hebdomadaire mon frere edition speciale. It's a bit strange that the title isn't japanese, but at least it means I can look it up later on. Other than spending a few hours in Brighton I haven't done much since it's still afternoon. I'll probably live on the wild side and have toast. On the other hand I could read the first 225 chapters of Naruto manga. Choices, choices. Till next time.

Manga.

For a day with all 4 lessons I managed to get through it rather well without getting tired. This is probably because I actually had breakfast, and during my last lesson when I was feeling run down I actually had a caffene mint called 'Foosh'. It was a free sample given out with the PCGamer magazine, and the little mint had as much caffene as a cup of coffee. It actually worked quite well since after 10 minutes I felt awake and full of energy again. It's really tempting to buy a pack when I see them just so I can have one in the afternoon and therefore stay awake. When I got home I discovered the joy of WindowBlinds, a program that allows easy changing of the desktop theme. It's pretty nifty, I now had a techo-style black theme. The button actually begin to glow as you hover over them and it looks far far better than any of the normal Windows XP themes. It's damn good really.

I've also managed to get through a fair bit of manga. Since the Naruto anime, which I saw the newest episode of earlier today, is starting to get completely filled with slightly bad fillers I decided to ask a friend who reads the manga where I should start from. They recommended the fight between Naruto and asuke just before he leaves to meet up with orochimaru, so I started reading at around there. Yesterday and today I managed to read from chapter 226 to 290, and it's just godly. There's no other word for it. God damn those evil traitor sand ninja's rock. As does Gaara. I'm also in the process of getting the earlier chapters for the sake of completion and I'll most likely read through them too. The manga depictions of Rock Lee's and Gaara's fights are bound to be impressive. Apart from the Naruto episode I didn't get around to watching any anime though, so that was a bad point. Oh well, there's always tomorrow. Till next time.

A little time.

Today again was slightly wearing, so I've just got up from an afternoon rest. The anime download isn't doing too badly, since I have episodes 7 and 8 to watch of Full Metal Panic. I'm looking forward to seeing them since they'll mostly likely cover just about enough from the manga to take me up to how much I've read, then from there it'll be all new. I've not got anything else to watch, but I will soon have some Naruto manga to read. The Naruto filler episodes are a bit lacking now, so I went ahead and asked a friend where in the manga Naruto's fight against Sasuke was before Sasuke run off, and I'm going to start reading the manga from there. It's a cunning plan.

I haven't updated the Soul Society forums yet, and I haven't been on Guild Wars either yet, but I'll most likely probably do both after I finish watching the 2 episodes of anime. I'm not quite as tired now as I was, so it's all good. There's still another 2 or so days will FMP is fully downloaded, thanks to a lack of seeders. It's quite vexing really since it's already had about 4 days of download time, but oh well. By tomorrow morning there'll probably be another episode done. At least I hope so. There's not much for me to write, so it's another short post for today. Till next time.

Tired.

Today was a tiring day, so this post will be quite short really. I had a good time going to college and chatting with all my friends since I hadn't seen them for so long. The lessons were ok, but law made me feel quite dispirited since I was a bit clueless as to what was going on since I hadn't revised. Phsycology was alright though, since I remembered pretty much everything. There's only a few research cases I need to brush up on. After college was Games Workshop, and I met a few other friends who I haven't seen in a long time since they have work or university to cope with. Once I got home I had to update the Soul Society forums too. I don't think I'll make it onto Guild wars today, since I just want to sleep. All in all it was quite a day full of social interaction, but it wore me out very quickly indeed.

I also managed to get the latest episode of Eureka Seven, number 24, from the Nanashi IRC channel. It's a good episode, and the series is really starting to get heavy and thick with plot now as the characters have made and broken so many ties, yet the traces are still there. It'll be good to see what happens when and if Holland manages to find Renton. Eureka really has evolved, with her character changing from a mostly emotionless girl to one who realises her feelings and acts upon them. It's quite heartwarming, yet saddening at the same time since she's seperated from Renton. At any rate I'm looking forward to seeing even more of the series since it has 26 episodes to go. Not too shabby really. I'm going to try to make an effort to at least show up in Guild Wars for those few people in my Guild, I just hope I won't fall asleep whilst doing so... Till next time.

No change.

The year has started off exactly the same way as last year, and the year before, etc etc ad infinitum. This is why I'm not overly hyped about the new year, since it inevitably turns out to be tedious and repetetive. Oh well. On the plus side I've managed to watch more anime. I've finished Full Metal Panic Fumoffu and Air, both the series and movie. It doesn't mater that I've watched Fumoffu fully before FMP, since I've read most of the manga anyway. It was a good series, and the ending was great. Air was a bit strange overall. The story started out roughly normal, then entered the realms of oddness, before having a really surreal last few episodes. The 13th, and last, episode was a recap one, and the movie was like a very slightly retold recap episode but longer. Overall I wouldn't consider it time wasted, but rather time interestingly spent. I've only seen the first Air summer special out of the two, but I'll definately watch the second since it expands upon the underlying story in Air. Full Metal Panic will still take some time to go. I've still only watched the first 4 episodes, but with any luck another 2 will be done by tomorrow. I just have to hope that the seeders decide to stick around.

In Guild Wars I decided to observe a Guild Battle using the recently implemented, and aptly named, 'Observe mode'. It was quite entertaining to watch, seeing two very high ranked Guilds battling it out and using all their skills in good combination. There was a clear winner however, the blue team, who were ironically rated the lowest out of the pair (rank 9, whereas the red team were rank 6). Obviously the two Guilds are good, since there are 1000 ranks. It must've taken a lot of effort to get that high. I also managed to chat to a few friends on MSN, and it was good to have contact with them at the end of the holidays, and it'll be nice to see them tomorrow. The conversations cheered me up slightly, since I was largely bored after Guild Wars with nothing to watch on account of slow download speeds. Since after college tomorrow I have Games Workshop to go to hopefully I won't be as bored. Till next time.

New Years.

Happy New Year all. That's what I like to term 'customary politeness'. Now, onto the actual news. I haven't actually been on Guild Wars yet. I probably will later this evening, who knows. I have been watching lots of anime. I've now seen over half of Full Metal Panic Fumoffu and Air. Unfortunately Full Metal Panic is downloading at an incredibly slow rate. I've only seen the first 3 episodes after a dull day and 15 hours of downloading. That's just really bad. Le sigh. I also haven't turned my computer off in about 3 or 4 days. This could lead to a high electricity bill, in which case don't expect more posts since my corpse will be decaying after my dad finishes his rant. He's not keen on paying large electricity bills. I can't really blame him, so I'll be giving the machine a rest once it finishes downloading Air, the Air movie, the Melty Blood Game, and Fumoffu. Those should all be done by tomorrow morning, so it's not too bad.

On the Soul Society forums I went and did a large checkup since it's New Years. It basically involves me looking through every section for threads that need updating which I may have missed due to the 'new post' icons not always working, my recent loss of internet, or pure carelessness. I managed to get quite a bit updated which is a double edged sword. It means it's done, but whoops I missed them in the first place. Oh well. I'll just have to keep a better look out this year. It's almost a resolution, but not quite since I don't believe in them. They'll only get broken anyway, so I see no point in making them. It's best to just carry on acting as normal really. It's not long till I return to college either, since it restarts on tuesday. By friday I need to write up the sociology report on educational achievement according to gender. The task says it should take between 3 to 4 hours, and the whole class was given about 30 sheets of information to write it from. Since I have 3 and a half hours of free time before sociology on friday that should do nicely. If I don't finish it I can claim that the time guide on it was wrong or something. Meh. I'll most likely spend tomorrow sleeping. Till next time.
