To celebrate the acquistion of our new house and to also pay tribute to my childhood, I give you super mario world!

Bought a house. Settle on the 21st of Febuary.

Pics to follow.

Quick update just because.

We are in the process of buying a house (whee!) 200,000$ townhouse, here we come. Hopefully we'll be in by my birthday. Owning a house before i'm 21... damn life is sweet.

work is good. life is great. my hubby is wonderful. :)

A few thoughts on the game as a whole so far. I'm 40 hours in at the moment. I've played every other Final Fantasy in the series although I am no crazy fan girl. In my opinoin, Final Fantasy is not the best RPG ever made but they tend to be darn good games as a whole.

I wasn't very excited about 12 to be honest. I didn't much like the demo from Dragon Quest 8. But the battle system grew on me as I played more and more, as did the characters/story. However, my few gripes are as follows:

1) The license board. I like that you can get the augmentations and even the techniks. But it seems to make buying weapons and armor way more difficult than it needs to be. Especially because they dont tell you in shops if the armor you are purchasing is light, heavy or mystic armour and to get to the licenses on the board you have to purchase those you dont want (i.e you have to have Light Armour 6 to get Heavy armour 5). I really wish that had taken the Sphere Grid from 10 and transferred that over to the license board. That way you could upgrade your stats for each character and really have complete control over their development.

2) Vaan should not be the main character IMO. He has very little to do with the story line up to the point that I'm at anyway. He doesnt really do much of anything. I think either Ashe or Balthier or Basch would have suited better.

3) Couldnt they have changed the character models around just a little bit??? Couldnt they make Vaan and/or Ashe have brown hair thats a tad longer to seperate them more from Tidus/Yuna? And Vaan stands the same way that Tidus did with his hands behind his head. Vaan practically is Tidus, personality and all (although not nearly as whiny).

4) I miss the old summons. Like Shiva and Bahamut. I was so excited to hear they renamed them Espers after 6 but none of my old favorites are back :(:( And there's no Weapons! :'(


All in all, I do like the game very much. Its a great step forward for the series as a whole. The battle system is intuitive, fast and challenging. The story is rather intriguing - its kept me glued to the couch practically every night after work.

Yes indeed, this is a cover up of a cover up. Third times the charm I guess because I am abolsutely in love with this thing. This is 6.5 hours in and I still have at least 3 hours more to go.

The thing in the center is called a Mandala which in Hinduism is a representation of the universe. When finished, it will appear to be floating in the middle of organica (a cave) emiting light.

It's been a very long time since I updated in here with anything to actually say. So. Yeah. I'm actually gonna say something. Heh.

Anyway. Sony has done it, yet again. They come up with the weirdest marketing strategys like ever. First was the grafitied PSP campaign (wtf?) and then it was the LETS HAVE A THREESOME AND PLAY THE PS2 AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!!! campaign. And now this:




Okay. This makes no goddamn sense to me at all. First off, why would you put down your other product? Don't you want both to sell? And the racism thing - what the fuck? Is sony trying to get just ZE GERMANS to fucking buy it? I totally don't think that controversy like this is going to sell more WHITE psp's. but i may be wrong. i always thought it was the video games that sold a system- not its color. Whatever.

The second thing that has been going on of late is that Brian and I have decided to get him a gun for christmas. We have the money and it would be terribly cool to go to the range and shoot. Plus - it would be beneficial for him to carry a gun at the Pawn Shop. My step father who owns the place has a shot gun, two guns in the safe and he carries a 9mm with him at all times while in the shop.

So now its decision time. What gun? The flashy, super elegant, totally badass, yet highly expensive (2,000$) Desert Eagle .50? And at .96 cents a bullet, it aint a fucking cheap gun to keep either.


Or the more practical, smaller yet looks exactly the same, completely adorable Baby Eagle? It also less expensive being only 680$


And last but not least, the Beretta M9. Military standard issue. Sexy. Blows people's heads off in The Boondock Saints. Although slightly costly, its around 1000$. This pic includes the silencer because its hott like that.



In other news. My father decided to move to Las Vegas two weeks ago. The funny thing is I had no idea until the 4th of July. And of course by funny I mean I kinda wanna punch him really fucking hard.

In other other news. Kelly is leaving us soon and I am terribly sad about that. However she will give me an excuse to go see California ;) yay for San Francisco!!! And cookie dough ice cream on a sugar cone with chocolate jimmies is yummy. Lots and lots of yummy.

Well- I've heard it from more than one person before :)
