WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!
Ahem.
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Now that that's taken care of... It seems that a mix of holiday cheer, jubilant expectations, and general good feelings have permeated my mind. I feel good, and only part of it is due to the season.
To start... *nets you all and pies the lot of you in greeting* I'm happy to be back; partially back for now, but more substantially later on. Even in this grand holiday season, having fun and joking around with my family, it'll feel much better to have you guys to talk to as well.
I managed to guess very few of my gifts, and it was a rather large surprise in a number of cases, which makes teh Mandeh happeh. I've got books, music, games, etc. Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories rock completely and utterly, and I can't wait to try out Phantom Brave, from the same people that made Disgaea.
Also, my brother fixed my computer, replacing the power supply, and transplanting the innards into a spiffy new, quite a bit larger, casing. It looks much more capable of cooling itself, so hopefully there'll ne'er be a sudden problem like the last one again. All in all, I plan on hooking it up tonight/this morning, just to check it out and clear some space for games and music. The uber news about this, however, is that my brother also brought an iMac down with him. It's not spectacular, but apparently said iMac will be the living room computer, and the good PC will now go to my room. That floats my boat and gives it a strong sail-wind as well.
I'll be trying to learn some C++ programming soon, with a book and Dev compiler that I got. And studying philosophy in my spare time for the heck of it. Plus I managed to borrow a book on KotOR from CTG, and I borrowed the game itself as well. So, even when I do hook the other one back up, I won't be all here. I still plan to try to catapult back into friendships that I've been missing out on for the past two weeks or so.
Anyway. My emotions feel kind of weird. Part of it's the season, the happy going-ons, etc...But...
Part of it seems to be that I just FEEL happy as hell. It's a wonderful emotion, even if I still sort of swing suddenly into blahness every once and a while.
Also, thanks to my kind, gracious, lovable, uber brother, I've now got FMA episodes on disks.
Life is good, and even though I know there's a storm, or a handful of them brewing, I really don't care. It's pure arrogance and will probably cost me in the end, but I'll just deal with them summarily as they come.
I'll end as I began.
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
~ P.S. Well, since I wrote this several hours ago...I've hooked up the comp. It worketh. Now making room for games, compiler, and sudden MP3 downloads.
