    Well, seeing as I've only had an Xbox for a couple months, I'd say I'm doing pretty well for myself so far. Anyway, I'm definitely going to be shelling out for a hard drive for the thing before I start considering paying for a gold Live account. Since I only have one USB drive that's greater than 1 GB and smaller than 16 GB, and it's the 8 GB I use all the time, I had to partition a chunk of it to hold the AC2 DLC so I could make enough room on my Xbox for The Da Vinci Disappearance. This will not do.

    I spent more on books today than I did yesterday on all those games yesterday... :/

    I still haven't got all of them.

    The 2nd year custom textbook wasn't available till later today, so I guess I'll have to pick that up tomorrow if I can.

    But once I have that, it looks like I'm set for the rest of the year, core book wise.

    EDIT: Thats 2 jobs applied to today.

    That 2x more than I ever did last year! XD

    I've somehow managed to loose my nametag already. ¬_¬

    I'm hoping it's in my locker, or has fallen out in my car somewhere. I haven't even worn it yet!

    I don't believe in DLC. I believe that they're just funny looking bytes that the Devil sprinkled through cyberspace to make us believe that there's more to our games than there actually is.

    More seriously, I've given up on 100% games. Frankly, at the moment, I'd settle for just completing the game

    Same. I start 100%ing a game, and then get bored(most zelda games)/realise there is a unfair challange(foxiest of hounds in Deus Ex:HR, they start the alarm if they even think they heard me) and quit.

    I need to get a new electric guitar.... :(
    (Well a good used one, and some new gear...)

    Been practising lately on my acoustic guitar.

    And, its sometimes annoys me somewhat.

    The front of the neck is painted and it sometimes feels uncomfortable, and it sometimes puts me off.

    The bulk of the thing. Nowhere near as bad as a acoustic that I played in someone's room at uni, (that thing was MASSIVE. How on earth did someone as small as that manage to play on it!!).
    It especially gets in the way on the higher frets.
    I can't really reach them.

    I probably should hold it classical style, but it doesn't feel comfortable to me.

    Its probably because I'm so bulky. I have wide arms, chunky hands, and a big gut, none of which help playing.

    I end up playing it oddly.
    I kind of hold it upwards, so I can see the frets, then rest it a little on something.

    The fact I don't have a strap for it, does not help either!
    (So I can't stand up and play!)

    I probably would be better off with something skinny, les-paul shaped, with a smooth wood neck.
    (Painted necks don't have that lovely glide that I need, as I tend to slide the side of my hand up and down the neck a lot)

    I also saw a electronic flying V ukilele:

    STE2018EBK.jpg

    I was SO, SO tempted to buy that on pure novelty alone! XD

    Name here has not made any friends yet

    I think the above is a tiny bit depressing towards the person. I think changing it to 'added any friends' would make more sense.

    I got that too (Love Sonic R, and Sonic the Fighters is interesting...), but I am VERY tempted to get the new port thats coming out for the 360.

    Especially if it has the music! :D

    EDIT: YAY!
    The port is being developed from scratch using a 'Retro Engine' created by independant developer Christian 'Taxman' Whitehead, who originally produced a proof of concept video of the game running on the iPhone in 2009. This engine allows improvements to be made to the game, including widescreen graphics and the option to utilise spin-dash physics from Sonic 2.[6][7] The port will also feature the original Japanese soundtrack, as well as achievement and trophy support and iOS features.[8]

    The American track had some good ones too.

    I don't get all the love for Sonic CD. The problem I really had with it was that the time travel mechanic just didn't really work for how fast-paced they kept the game. Time traveling on purpose was next to impossible for me, and if I recall, you could only use each post once. Thanks to what I felt was shoddy execution of the time travel mechanic, I had no shot at getting the good ending or any of the gems.

    You've never owned any Nintendo consoles, ever?

    I've owned each of their 5 (US localized) set-top consoles, and the original Game Boy.

    Nope! Not a one. I occasionally played some Super Mario on my babysitter's console when I was a very small child but I have never owned anything other than too many computers for my own good.

    I get bored when it comes to 100%ing the Zelda games, not beating the games.
    I cant be the only one that finds it boring to go and find the gold skulltulias, or sailing every single island.

    I'd give you a Game Boy or something for your birthday but I wouldn't know where to send it. =P

    You and me both. I barely remember my own address at the best of times. Twice, TWICE, while sending a rent check to my roommate over the summer, I wrote the wrong address on the envelope and got the check returned to me a few weeks later along with a phone call from a very panicky roommate.

    Just lost my bus travel card yesterday, and that is really annoying. I take so good care of it and put it in my bag every time. But I guess I am not that careful after all.

    In other news, I am tired and just happy it's Friday. That means the day is short and the weekend is upon us. :)
