Here I am all moved in to my new apartment, and I finally have internet again. Lately I haven't been doing much except watching movies and House with Dustin, but I have had a few classes already. Nothing too exciting, but I'm supposed to go to a Photoshop class later on today.
We started renting House DVDs from NetFlix, since neither one of us had seen all of the first three seasons. I've got to say, I'm genuinely hooked now. Even the formulaic episodes don't bother me, because the writers seem to know just how to keep me interested in all this medical stuff that I previously didn't care about. However, I think that, if I could, I would just cut out all of that and leave nothing but character development to sit there and drool over. Alas, that would probably make the show much less enjoyable for other people, so I'm fine with it. Besides, if they progress the characters too quickly, it probably would feel too rushed.
I wasn't a huge fan of Wilson when I first started watching the series, but I have to say he's grown on me. It didn't really help that he ditched House when he worked so hard to get those Monster Truck tickets, but I think now that I understand their relationship more, I've grown to like Wilson. I've still got a lot of House left to watch (I'm only currently on the 4th disk of the first season, though I've watched most of the 4th season) so that could change again, but whatever.
Our apartment is kind of bare at the moment, though our living room is filled with a couple dozen video game and Code Geass posters. It's so nerdy, though it's kind of sad that we haven't had anyone to show it off to yet. My room is huge, and I haven't gotten around to decorating yet, so it looks really empty. I get my own bathroom though, which I thoroughly enjoy after sharing one bathroom with three/four other people for almost my entire life. We've got 7 systems set up including Wii, GameCube, N64, Super Nintendo, NES, Sega Genesis, and PS2. It's quite obviously a gamer's apartment, though if you look at just the bedrooms I don't think anyone could observe that.
Well, it's time to catch up on all that internet that I missed out on, and perhaps work on some Chinese homework while I'm at it.
