No, don't drop! Not ready - ack, there he goes...

Cherri made a new layout, Liberation. I love it! I still need a layout for When it Rains, It Pours. I have little inspiration to work on it though. (sigh) That’s why I’d been making layouts for Cherri’s sites.

Beat Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance last night! WOW. I had such a fun time with it, even though the last hour or so of the game is boss fight, dialogue, and rinse, repeat. If you haven’t played BBS or Days, it might make more sense to do that beforehand (unless you’re like me and didn’t realize it would be a good idea…) I’m enjoying how much the stories are connected to each other (sometimes elements change between prequels and sequels..*cough*CrisisCore*cough*). I’m really curious about Birth by Sleep now! I’m also excited to play 358/2 Days but I’m more curious about Aqua, Tera, and Ven than I am Axel, Roxas, and (girl). I don’t know her name, I don’t look up spoilers.

This still contains spoilers for KH 3D. That being said. OH MAN!

I had so much fun playing though this game. I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I had actually played Birth by Sleep and Days before hand as there were little things that would have made more sense. I suppose that Recoded would have helped too. I loved seeing the new worlds and I loved seeing Riku become the protector he always wanted to be. I wasn’t surprised when he was dubbed Keyblade master! GOOD JOB. I think he deserved it.

Also not surprised that Lea got a keyblade! Thank you, by the way, for saving Sora when everyone else was held up! I suppose he must be the new 7th light, but what about Kairi? She’s still a princess right, so that’s different? But if one considers the seven princesses and the seven guardians, there’s not just “seven” pieces of light, there are fourteen. This seems a little disjointed for as much as they were throwing around the seven lights, thirteen dark. Anyways, that aside, I think that because he found his heart again and kept his promises (he mentions them but I’m not sure of the details) he unlocked something within himself. What the hell does the key blade look for?

Also, Riku and Sora were both wielders but not masters (now Riku is a master) before. So, maybe, there can only be a set number of wielders (kind of like sith) - but I suppose that still doesn’t make sense when we consider the combinations of wielders unless of course “sleeping” doesn’t apply to the count? But it strikes me as odd that there have been so many key blade wielders to crop up. Kairi, I can understand since she held Sora’s heart for a while. Roxas makes sense too. And from what I can tell (girl) also uses key blades (so she must be much more related to Sora than I know for sure). Master Xehanort and Young Xehanort also had key blades. It’s a rare power but I’m starting to think the qualifications are fickle! Maybe playing the other games will help explain that.

Anyways, I had a great time with it. And it makes a lot more sense as to why some worlds were repeats but doesn’t explain why some were new considering we were in Sora’s dreams the whole time. I suppose, though, as someone who has very vivid very unfamiliar dreams, it’s not too far of a stretch. Perhaps the sleeping worlds were also more constructs from Xehanort too.

I’m still having a hell of a time getting my hours scheduled! UGH. I really need them and try as I might I can’t get the school to contact me. I wonder if I ought to just call and yell! Well, no, I know I shouldn’t do that, but I’m very frustrated. I’ve been trying to get them to work with me for a month. Perhaps I should think about a different school. (sigh) Well, I know I can get the hours scheduled, I just don’t know why it’s such a chore. I’d really prefer to work in the Elementary school because I feel more comfortable there. (Also, the middle school isn’t title 1) But it’s been a pain to get them to call me back. I’m bordering pushy - and I know I need to be pushy in some regard but I’m not sure how to do it without being…pushy. OH SNAP. I emailed and got a reply “thanks for the reminder.” Ahahaha. Why? Well now it looks like things are moving again, so that’s good! What is an acceptable time to call back and say “Hey, why didn’t I get a call before?” without being 1) pushy, 2) assuming too much, 3) how the hell do I say it without saying it? If I state the days and times I want it generally ends up being that they get back to me weeks after the fact. The school and staff are friendly but it’s a pain to get hours and I don’t want to call my adviser and have her do it (it strikes me as passive and immature…).

Copper’s sleeping across the room, I sneeze. He jolts up, I sneeze again. He twitches. I apologize, he goes back to sleep. What a bratty little dog! I’m sorry for disturbing you! He turned 15 this year, it’s amazing! He’s still just as spry as ever but his vision isn’t as good as it used to be and now he can’t jump up on the furniture. But he’s still very vocal and does what he wants. I’m very thankful he’s still with us though. We’ve had a few scares with him in the last couple of years. But he’s still truckin’ on.
