I suppose this would amount to the almost obligatory "I'm still alive" post. I'm not sure what exactly happened between April and now, but the last month or so was extremely busy. This month looks a little better, but I really need to manage my time so I can actually update. Contrary to my lack of posts, I've not grown tired of LJ in order to move ( Read more... )

Normally, I may or may not take part in the new (as in what is currently airing in Japan) anime lineups for Fall, Winter and Spring. In the past it was usually because I was busy with school and only watched what I could. It would normally have to be a show that caught my eye sometime in advance. If I were still in school I probably would have just ( Read more... )

Despite my best intentions my LJ has fallen into long periods with no updates. The time and enthusiasm I used to have when I updated nearly everyday are pretty much gone. The increasingly mudane aspects of my life are killing my interest in updating everyday and my work on Damage Control is taking up my free time. I could always cross post geeky ( Read more... )

Friday night already? Time sure does fly when you spend a good chunk of the week writing and working. Unfortunately, the two don't necessarily go together just yet. Other than doing the laundry for the week and writing a detailed Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (season one) review for Damage Control (it was a pain to write at times), e-filing my taxes was ( Read more... )

Remember when I said, I'd write about my thoughts on the Crisis Core ending? Well that sort of expanded into a full article style game review. I added pictures to break up the text, which seems to help a lot. I think with some minor tweaking this article will be heading to my blog. And here is the article, all 1500 words, cut at some point to cut ( Read more... )

My RSS feeds never fail to inform and entertaining me on an almost daily basis. Today I came across some of the most amusing political news yet, not counting those "terrorist fist jabs".

When deciding how to best set the tone for a political ad one should always choose video game music, specifically from Medal of Honor European Assault, now that' ( Read more... )

It's amazing how quickly a week can go by. At the same time it's also amazing how little things have changed from last week. I'm still working on the same flash slide show assignment that I had a week ago and I find myself dealing with pictures and in need of audio again. Luckily, this week seems to be under control unlike last week where I only ( Read more... )

After a seriously disappointing weekend I can say today is off to a somewhat better start. On Saturday I had planned to pay a visit to University City down in West Philadelphia (to visit the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University). I wanted to go in the morning but thanks to a variety of chores and some procrastination on my part, I didn' ( Read more... )

It is not going to be a relaxing weekend, it's going to be a horrible weekend. We finally got our syllabus in MURL yesterday and we have 700-900 word essay due next Thursday. I don't mind reporting and I obviously don't mind writing at length if I have enough material to write about. In fact, if I didn't enjoy doing these things to a certain degree ( Read more... )
