Dreams and more game rambling
I think I was at a con...possibly A-kon? And I got keys for a hotel tower I'd never stayed in. Southwest or something, which I don't think even exists. Apparently there's a secret staircase that goes up, but it's really narrow, has no railings, and there's a checkerboard pattern on the walls...and yet people are running up the stairs excitedly like it's nothing? I freak out and back out to go look for the elevator. Which is uneventful until I realize I somehow ended up at floor 200 something and have to go back down to 25. And then when I go I step into an elevator and it slips down some and I have to hang onto the edge to keep from plummeting downward since it's apparently broken and nobody bothered to close it off. So someone has to drag me out of it and I'm antsy about getting into any of the other elevators even though they seem to be working just fine. And I think I accidentally get into one that is going up, and it's a fucking WONKAVATOR or some shit and it flies and tilts sideways and oh god wryyyyyy. Also why is there a walmart on the roof? Jesus. I have to get off there and wait for another elevator, which is run by a midget with a potato tie...no seriously it is made out of a potato. And that finally takes me to the floor I'm going too, which is like a huge common area where the rooms don't even seem to be closed off, or indeed rooms at all, and it's like a maze trying to figure out where I'm supposed to be. But I finally figure it out and wake up confused.
Seriously, if this is a nightmare, what the hell are the normal dreams I can't remember about?
Anyway. Back to normal stuff.
So pretty much right after that last post in which I talked about what games I was playing, I completely switched over and stopped playing all the ones I mentioned. Back to FFXII and The World Ends With You, it seems, with brief forays into Portal and Okami. I was finally forced to advance the plot in FFXII due to running out of hunts to do, and really wanting holy to show up in the shop. Which it STILL didn't, so I guess I have to go advance the plot some more. Boo. Still trying to get all the secret stuff in The World Ends With you, and I only have a couple to go...then I guess it's just grinding and getting special pins to get more pins and trying to fill out my stupid noise report...why do I do this to myself?
I broke Portal yesterday...I'm not sure how. I lost a cube somehow, where there shouldn't have been a way to lose it, and then the cube dispenser spit out more. And wouldn't stop. So the room gets filled with the things and lags like crazy and I have to go push the power button on the console to make it go away. It was distressing! So I went and played Okami instead. And omggg my arm hurt after all that. Playing that on the Wii is hard, the sensor jumps around sometimes, and stupid power slash is really hard to do...I fail so many times whenever I'm doing the bits with Susano, it's ridiculously frustrating. But I eventually got through, and now I don't think I'll be playing that for a while...and when I do I will be screwing around looking for secret things, I am pretty sure. :B
Switching to anime, I finished Ghost Hound. I'm pretty sure I was shipping Masayuki and Makoto since episode one. Even though they're like, fourteen. Dammit, anime, why can your protagonists never be legal? But Masayuki makes it so easy! He clings. And wears horrible pink shirts. What am I supposed to do? D:
After finishing that and basically giving up on my efforts to make the 360 useful for watching things I started with Soul Eater and am 20-something episodes in. I'm not really sure what I think of it, honestly. It feels like something's missing, but it's been so long since I've read the manga I'm not sure. Maka's voice really bothers me for some reason though. Soul's did too at first, but I think I just got used to that. So yeah, I dunno. I'll probably finish it out of curiosity since it apparently ended at some point, and I'm thinking about getting a hold of all of Kuroshitsuji sometime for that reason as well, even though the characters the anime introduced grated on me and it seems that they're obviously taking it somewhere way off track. Honestly, I might not bother with it at all.
Um...I guess I don't actually have anything interesting to talk about. This summer is floating by in kind of a blur and it's really a bit distressing...I can't seem to find the motivation to get out and do things, I hardly ever talk to anyone, I sleep too much, and it's really ridiculous. My summer class should start next week though, so at least I'll have that to do. And hopefully it won't be too much of a hassle. I don't think I could deal with another choose your own adventure setup. But we'll see, I guess.
Hopefully I will have something at least a little more interesting to post sometime in the future...I really need to get up and do something though. Wish I had people to go do things with though. :x
