I feel like an anti-social Beedrill- time to fix
First order of business:
I was for sure that was a boss. :< Turns out there's only like one or two in the whole game. I've got to say, for as great a story AMR told, I'm a little disappointed in the gameplay. Most of it was just platforming and puzzles. I liked battling the Wonderland characters in the first game, what happened?
Anyway, I've actually begun writing a story. :O I'm going through a little Pokemon hype, so naturally some Pokefic was bound to follow. It's not one of the projects I'd really like to be working on right now, but it's better than nothing.
Besides that, I haven't been up to much, really. Just been working, watching some Transformers and Boston Legal, and sorting out my room before I leave. I have less than a month now. 22 days, to be exact, and boy do I need them to go by fast. The anxiety mixed with my dwindling patience with my family is putting me in a constant bad mood. I'm starting to go whole days without speaking to my mom or Brad, just because I'm... well, frankly, I'm getting sick of them. Brad's temper, my youngest brother's attitude, and my mom's tendency to be a bitchy time bomb whenever something doesn't tick right with her is getting really old fast. I'm not trying to sound ungrateful, I mean after all they're paying for about half of my college. It's just that I've been living with these people for too long, and I need some distance. This has become a house of angry people, and I think the only one whose not ready to strangle someone else is my the twelve-year-old. Watch, I'll come home for Thanksgiving and we'll all be completely civil with each other.
In conclusion, I'm impatient to move out.
Oh yeah! I heard from Jonah! He talked to me and Becky through Facebook for, like, 45 minutes- first time in two months. Nothing's changed, though. I don't feel any closer to him than I did at the end of the school year. But I'm beginning to think that this could be a good thing. I've got more important things to worry about than whether or not a guy I used to have a crush on is talking to me. It's sad that we're not close anymore, but there are certain things just need to be let go, y'know? Besides, I can feel the other little parties our group of friends moving in different directions. Mama Rambo's now in California, Joey's in Alaska, Jonah's just gone, I don't hear much from Eddie and Tiffany, Raven will be moving into her dorm early because of marching band, and Sam and Tyler are working their way through their new marriage. (Which I'm still not used to. I see this Samantha Dennis on FB and think, "WTF is this?!") Jake and Becky are usually available to hang out for a few hours, and I often see Cody at work, but that's the extent of what I've done with my friends since we went camping at Lindsey's- not counting when Raven came to my dad's.
I'm currently trying to get the gang together for one last hurrah before we all start college. Next Wednesday, I want to take everyone to my old town for a day of gallivanting. I was thinking we'd hit the ice cream shop, the coffee shop, swim in the lake for a while, eat at this restaurant that Raven has picked out, and then.... maybe drive by my old house? I haven't seen the place in almost six years. It's the only house that's really felt like to me, and I don't want someone's changes that they've made to tarnish the image I've had of it. All the same, I really want to see it.
Well, that's it from me. ...I think I need some AIW. I miss Hare and Rabbit and everyone. :<
