I Hate Writing Researched Lit Papers Because No Scholars Write About What I Wanna Write About.
So Final Fantasy III is pretty neat, and all, and I like the old school grinding action, which is always more palletable on the go... and while listening to podcasts. But I dislike very much retro games that don't tell me what the fuck to do. Because I have no idea what the fuck to do at this point. I'll look it up eventually, either at Barnes and Noble or on GameFaqs...
By the way, I'm like... almost caught up on podcasts. It's kinda freaky, as I haven't been caught up since... like... I used to listen to them at work. Heh.
So I wrote my paper. Sort of. It's 6 and 3/4ths pages as opposed to the 8 pages I was supposed to have. But the essay was already pretty bad, so I didn't feel like attempting to bullshit for another page was something I should do. At least I have something to turn in, yeah? Too many classes I have just not turned something in and got a B. This... this is something. I'm expecting a... 75 to 80 out of a hundred.
What else is going on... Well, I got like... a week left of school. I gotta finish Fragile Things (which, honestly, I'm not too into so far. I'm tired of Mr. Gaiman starting every story with a page of "Hey, let me tell you a story, huh?" Sometimes you can get away with that... he can because he's Niel Gaiman. But still, start with some sort of action sometime. I mean, seriously. One story, it was enveloped in something like 4 pages of "Let me tell you a story." None of it seemed to serve any purpose.) and write a book report on it... and I gotta edit my short stories. Neither of which should be very hard or stressful. Then some finals, la dee da... and I'm done.
Jonathan played the Sonic Xbox 360 demo and really seemed to want it... until he realized it was 60 bucks. Stupid Next Gen games being expensive... eh, if he seems bored maybe that'll be what I'll get him for his birthday. I wouldn't mind playing it either, but it's not a priority.
Oooh, Toastyfrog started a new Retro Releases Roundup thingy. Nice. And Retronauts podcasts is coming back. Nice.
Well, time to have a little fun after this day of pouring over essays about Don Quixote. Yay!
