You fight that monster

My turn offs include: Not super awesome graphics, set camera angles, that really annoying movement scheme where the up button only makes you walk forward and the back button makes you walk slowly backwards and makes turning a bitch, not being able to shoot over-shoulder, giant monster thing that screams "STARS!!" and basically rapes the shit out you...

Okay, I like (love and would love to get married to) Resident Evil 3, but some of the old-fashion stuff I just can't take anymore. Anyone who has since played RE4 or 5 can maybe agree with me that the control scheme for those games are way better. It makes killing zombies way easier and it's really nice to see what you're shooting at. Then you revisit the old games and it's like "...we should see other people."

There are also these also things in game that force you to make decisions that affect how the rest of the game goes. The very first one you make is whether or not to face Nemesis within 5-6 minutes of the game starting. Nemesis, for those of you who don't know, is a giant zombie thing in a trench coat that stalks you throughout the entire god damn game because that's what he was made to do. He's even on the cover! The full title of the game is actually "Resident Evil 3: Nemesis"! He's suppose to be a big deal. So no way in hell I'm gonna choose to fight that right? Wrong! There's this problem with me that if I tell myself not to do things, I more than 90% of the time end up doing them. So screaming "DON'T CHOOSE FIGHT!!" over and over only lead to me choosing to fight and being pummeled to the floor like a meat sack. Here's where the not so awesome controls kicked in and forced me to spend an extra second with my decaying, fleshy friend.

But who's complaining? I get to shoot zombies. Plus I spent a good hour updating hacks and all that technomalogical BS just to get one PS1 game to work so I am gonna play it. I will play the shit out of it.

I'm a potty mouth. :O

I watched a video today of our awesome, awesome president swatting a fly like it was nothing. I would've loved it even more if he had pulled out his presidential fly-killing chopsticks out. Jokes aside, the first thing that popped into my head was "PETA is gonna be piiiisssedd!" Of course, I was joking and didn't think they would actually get involved, but I guess I'm really wrong. Well, I they kinda only made some comment about the incident, no anti-fly killing protests, but really? I'll take being reborn as a fly and swatted by a president for saying this, but that's just really stupid to worry about a fucking fly. This is where we are as a country. We have time to talk about a fly that was killed on TV. (Ignore that, we don't need more complaining about the country)

I don't like PETA. Let's put that out there. I love animals. PETA "loves" animals. Hooray!? I mean, some of the stuff they do is awesome. Save the shit out of those animals. Forget people. Animals are the ONLY thing that matters. Here's what I believe (don't talk to me if you don't feel the same way :D): People should be the most important thing to other people. Not animals. Not trees and whatnot. Work on keeping people alive. Work on reaching that point where were not just mindless consumer dipshits who just waste and waste and I believe a lot of problems that aren't people will be remedied.

Maybe I'm talking out of my ass and my second ass when I say that. Maybe PETA will try and take me down. That would be tight.

I'm into season four of "The Office". I am excited. Sure. Excited. But also not because it will not last me all Summer. But cross country practice starts sometime next week I believe. I guess that'll keep me busy for a while. Then maybe when I beat the living poopies out of Patapon 2 and Resident Evil 3, I'll actually do something productive.

I might look into making soap (for cereals). Then I'll start a fight club. Then I'll take down civilization. WOO!

Summer days, I can't stand the Summer days

You will luff it! YOU WILL LUFF THE HELL OUT OF IT! The song that is. Isn't it a great song? Unless you hate cute. Then you're a fucker. >=O The good thing about songs by Olivia Lufkin is that should they feature guitars, they are usually really easy to figure out. Hooray!

So I believe I may be obsessed with "The Office". The good ol' Amurcan one of course. Great show. And Dwight K. Schrute may very well be my new hero.

I don't watch a whole lot of TV nor do I catch onto things very fast so bear with me.

I wanna see a Chinese version of "The Office". It would be weird. China would probably end up banning it. Hahaha.

I wonder if I blogged about stuff like this while I'm in China, would they like shut me down and deport me? Because a lot of people blog in China and some of them who talk a lot of shit or do things that the government don't approve of have been shut down I believe.

I've googled Tienanmen Square like once while I was in China and my uncle was like "Yea....don't do that..."

This is me bored. Hello. Time to quit being a panzy bitch and actually attempt to play Resident Evil 3 on mah PSP. Can't quite remember if the L2/R2 buttons were needed...I hope they aren't.

Isabella stand a little bit taller

I don't think I can have nightmares anymore. Simply because I haven't had one in so long (The zombie invasion dreams don't count 'cause I like them). Last night was about as close as it gets and it sucked. Instead of having nightmares, I just keep waking up every other second like some paranoid freak and thus leads to a lack of sleep. This implies I was scared of something. Why? Because I watched "Zodiac" again? Really? Sure.

Sailing Free

So after going on about how I'm pretty anti-consumerist in my head, all I have to say right now.....



WANT!!!! o,o"

But all I waste my money on is guitar stuff. I guess that's better than a juicer. Right?

I like science fiction and candy

I am very scared at how easily distracted I am. Like I will try to look something up on the interbot and end up not getting to it three hours later when I wake up from a nap after reading about naps instead and remember that was why I was on the interbot in the first place.

I am attempting to play this game called "Sengoku Basara: Battle Heroes" which in English would be the PSP sequel of a game you probably don't know called "Devil Kings". I really don't know why I'm trying to play it since it's in Japanese and I really hate not knowing what I'm doing. Especially in a game like this where there's a lot of fancy combo-ing and confusing movements. I guess maybe because Olivia's new single, "Sailing Free", is the theme song? But it's like the ending theme so I actually have to beat one of the story modes and I can't understand anything and it makes me sad. Blah blah blah.

Within the past 40 or so hours, I've watched:

-The Rocky Horror Picture Show
-Elizabethtown (again...)
-Gran Torino
-Mumford

All of which you probably should go see.

TRIVA! TRIVIA!!

If you can tell me how both "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and "Breakfast at Tiffany's" relates to "Elizabethtown" all within the same scene, you win an all expense trip to....East Oakland.

Good day.

No Tyler, It's Our Head

I also have a love-hate relationship with Starbucks. I don't like places where there's like a ton of fru fru drinks and it's impossible to just find "coffee" anywhere on the menu. I personally feel like an asshole asking "So like...can I just get coffee coffee?" so I never do it. I only say that because I do it in a very asshole-y manner. But they make coffee and they're not too bad so I guess we can still talk Starbucks. :D

Wanna know what I'm addicted to at this very moment? Crack. Yup. I've developed a crack addiction. I'm also addicted to banana chips, but crack is cheaper. Crack, crack, crack.

My friend has a dog named Gus. He's kinda awesome because he's pretty old for a dog and just kinda does whatever he wants now. Namely stand on my feet and make it impossible to move without knocking him over. Haha. He also randomly stole a potty while I was following him. Thank god I didn't step in it.

So like....I'm officially a senior? Hooray? I have to worry about the rest of my life for reals now? No wai...

And I still don't know what I am required to do tomorrow. I just know I have to show up at 7:30 pm and be ready to be the best helper monkey I can be.

I'm not really addicted to crack. But I really am addicted to crack.
