[Hey what's up? So, couple of things today.
First, schoolwork's piling up, and I'm not even out of Term 1 yet. Boo to that.
Number 2. I've been sssssooooo busy lately, with my choir stuff, schoolwork, etc, that I'm feeling more stressed out than high school. But damn, putting it up here makes me feel a whole lot more relaxed. I don't know. Recently, I had assignment after assignment after assignment and it just didn't seem to end. So I'm thankful for the downtime I get every now and then.
That said, I AM spending more time thinking about Life and the universe and shit instead of doing my work. To tell you the truth, I feel like more of a philosopher than a student. Maybe I should quit being a student and take up philosophy instead. Anyway, it seems like wishful thinking in my current position.
I HAVE noticed an increasing amount of people who thinks like I do but dare not admit it to themselves. Maybe they're afraid of being judged? Society is always changing, and if you don't follow the trend, you're one of 2 things: the trend-setter, or the social anomaly. Being the latter means that you will always be critically judged on everything; from your physical self to your mentality.
Ok, enough rambling. I know it's getting boring for you guys anyway. Thanks. This is what you get when you read my JOURNAL.
Game time!
A few games I want:
-HALO 4 (DEFINITE MUST-HAVE!!)
-Assassin's Creed 3 (I'm still a little iff-y on this one)
-Black Ops II (Another must have!)
-Battleship (A "smaller" FPS game that looked kinda cool in the trailer)
-Syndicate (maybe. I'll need to check the trailer and gameplay first)
-Diablo III?? (MEGA HUGE CONSIDERATION NEEDED FOR THIS ONE)
Some of these games won't be released for another couple of months, so during the wait I'mma try to complete some of the other games on that list. Still not a fan of Diablo though. Maybe after watching other gamers play it and getting a hold on the story, THEN I'll play it.
Oh wells -(-.-)-
Maybe life'll improve for me. I'd hate to go back to my "dark times" again.
Gotta go. Playin' Bad Company now. Some asshole rammed me with his humvee. Let's see how funny it is when he takes a rocket up his ass.
Peace!]

[Yo! Wassup' guys?
Ok, first things' first. I AM BACK IN ACTION, BABY! Yeah! Actually started polytechnic 2 weeks ago, but hey, who's counting? I just wanted to get a feel of being in a new school, new environment, and around new people first before basing my opinions on anything. I gotta say, it's not what I expected. But then again, isn't it always? First week's tough. Assignments already? And schoolwork. Whew. Too stressed out, man. I haven't got the time to really kick back for long hours to try to sort out the work and I almost don't have the time to relax and just think. Everything in poly is "GO! GO! GO!" It's about Method, Technique, Swiftness, and Execution. You got to have some sort of method to survive everything in poly and you have to have a technique for doing it. It's gotta be fast and accurate, and the way you end has to be flawless. This applies to any assignment, any project, any work that I do while I'm in poly.
Ok, so that's poly life (for now anyway), but I'm sure I'll adapt once I've mastered the skill of M.T.S.E (read the top paragraph if you don't know what it means).
On to other stuff.
Ever heard of S.S.D.D? It's a term used in Call Of Duty MW2. It means "Same Shit, Different Day". That's basically what I'm going through now. Everyday the same routine. Get up, get to school, study, go home, and sleep. And the cycle repeats. Weekends are no different either. Only thing that's different on some days is me updating my blog with posts like this. And it's nice to vent here 'cause I can see what I wrote on my previous posts and help to sort out my thoughts. Yes, it helps me to think clearly and it takes my mind off of stressful stuff like schoolwork and whatnot. That said, I sometimes wish that there was someone, who knows everything I've been through, everything I'm about to go through, stand by my side always and just basically be there for me when others aren't, kinda like a second me. Preferably female. Guess I'm kinda lonely. Seeing couples getting married almost every week makes me a little jealous. But I don't have time to worry about that. 'Cause school takes priority. Funny how it always comes back to school, eh?
Anyway, GAME TIME!
Ok, let's see.....
Halo 4. This game is said to be released on the 6th of November this year (yay!). The game's design is a complete overhaul from the original series. Some examples of the new changes are the new Battle Rifle. That thing looks waaaayyyy too awesome to fire in 3-round bursts. And It kinda reminds me of the SCAR in Crysis 2. Hmmm....
The game takes place 5 years after Halo 3, in the year 2557. The UNSC had launched a new starship called The Infinity, as well as a new Spartan program, called the SPARTAN IVs. They are made up of adult volunteers and their armor looks very cool. It has an EOD-esque kind of feel, with the small visor-ed helmet, bulkier shoulder plates and they generally look tough to kill. The Covenant are back, albeit in a smaller capacity than previous games. Apparently, they are not the main antagonists, and something far worse than The Flood, is. The game takes place where GLASSLANDS left off, with a few new developments in between. I just hope this new "Reclaimer" trilogy holds up to par, or does better, than the other games.
Black Ops 2 is FINALLY revealed. I say "finally" because there was alot of hype on what the next Call Of Duty's gonna be. Since Infinity Ward and Treyarch have bascially covered everything from world war 2 to the Cold war to Modern times, there's really no where else to go but up. People were saying that the next COD title might be tentatively named "Future Warfare" while others speculated on a second Black Ops. Guess Treyarch was playing close attention to the rumors. Therefore, the new COD will be named Black Ops 2, featuring future tech and warfare. Anyway, it's release date is set for 13th November 2012. So I'll be getting H4 first, then Ops 2, 2 awesome games within one week. How awesome is that?
'Kay, getting sleepy now. Eyes are failing me. Muscles losing strength. Basically running on finger strength. Ok, till next time guys.
Peace!]
