You make me want to play this game! Except I suck at games, and I don't have an Xbox! XD

hahaha everyone should play this game. The amazing thing is that the 3rd game will include story mode. Story mode is the easiest combat ever. You basically don't die. I played it during the demo and I was standing right in front of the bad guys as they were shooting me and my shields weren't even going down. It's ridiculous. But perfect for people who are in it just for the story. Or you could just watch youtube vids. I will eventually do a post with my favorite vids. When I get off my ass to do something that involved.

I know what you mean about being hesitant to change your meds. I've been basically on the same dosage of Prozac since I was 12. We tried increasing it a few times, but I got tiny heart palpitations, which freaked me out so I always just went back.

I've been relatively stable so long that I'm scared to change anything.

Meanwhile, this winter has been really good to me, hardly any depression at all, which seems to confirm that I might have some kind of seasonal thing, because usually winters are really hard, but this winter has been so sunshiny, and I've been very happy and content.

Hope it all works out good!

Yeah I've been thinking a lot lately about coming off my meds because I'm in a much more stable place in my life. But I know that will just fuck everything up. I can't stand my med side effects sometimes but I guess it's a necessary evil. I just hate the thought that I will be on drugs for the rest of my life. Who knows what long term effects they have. Especially the new ones that have only been out for 10 years or so. At least with the old school drugs, like lithium, the long term effects are known. I'm not on any of those.

I'm really glad that the winter was good for you. It was pretty good for me too for a change.

Haha I think it's kinda cool your dad plays. I wish mine would. He's such a Star Trek nerd, I know he'd love Mass Effect. It does kind of suck that you haven't been able to play though :C You might be able to make it! I just started my "official" ME2 run.

I've been feeling pretty similar about my school work too. Are you taking any other classes? I have this drawing class that I like well enough when I'm there, but getting the homework done is like pulling teeth :\

My Dad was the person who got me into gaming. I mean I used to play a few computer games (Phantasmagoria, Gabriel Knight, King's Quest, flight simulators) but it was only because my Dad bought them. I basically just play whatever he buys now. Except I bought Bioshock all for myself. I love that game way too much to be healthy. And I will be counting the days until Bioshock Infinite is released. Whenever a release date comes out that is ( ... )

Omg yes. I loveed the first Bioshock (I have the second one but haven't finished it yet.) Telllll meee you've seen this. Omg I love it so much. Probably one of my favorite things on the internet, lol.

ASFDJASLJF OMG New Zealand! What are you going for?

I'm just taking Drawing I and Intro to 3D Design. With Drawing, what I tend to do is sketch the whole thing and then go back and slowly work my way across the page, spending way too much time on details which, I'm learning, is WRONG lol. I get too focused, I need to work on the ~whole piece~. I also found out that I am wayyy to heavy handed! The first few days of class my prof was constantly like, LOOSEN UP! Well, ~The More You Know~. Intro to 3D kind of sucks though. We don't have homework or tests, which is cool, but it's all just kind of... boring to me.

I think it's cool you're taking a watercolor class! I'm no good at actually painting x) I'm always afraid of screwing up. There is no CTRL+Z!! lol

I love that your dad plays xbox! Mine kinda just squints at the controller for ages when I ask if he wants a go, ignores all advice, promptly gets himself killed and then ragequits, claiming he can't see properly on his big 50" screen. Oh, dad. He does enjoy watching ME/ME2 and laughing when I do renegade stuff all "you should punch him CAN YOU PUNCH HIM" when i'm trying to talk to NPCs. He really enjoyed Thane's recruitment.

Just started my own re-playthrough of ME2, but it keeps glitching. Conrad's vanished from the game and that alone kinda makes me want to scrap the save and start again. I don't think that's weird. That's not weird, right?

Haha, oh man, i've been lax as shit with my work, mainly because my xbox is right there i'll just play for half an hor, no biggie... And also it's cold and hard to get up.
Model university student I am not. I do, however, hope the med switch works out for you! C:

I am way too nice when I play video games. My dad watches me sometimes when I play Fallout and every time I come across an NPC I don't really like he's always "shoot him, shoot him. " I don't go around randomly killing people or stealing shit. Mostly because I was playing the first 20 minutes of Skyrim and I stole something and then killed a random chicken. The whole town descended on me and backed me on to a bridge. Suffice it to say I died thus ending my adventures in Skyrim.

Sucks that your game is glitching. Mine wouldn't let me complete that lost credit chit mission. Conrad is obvs the sole reason to play Mass Effect so you should totally restart your game :p

Thank you, I hope my med situation works itself out.

Oh my god, sorry to butt in but I DID THE EXACT SAME THING IN SKYRIM XD. I mean, you can kill everything else for food, so why not a chicken! :\ I reloaded anyway cause I'm a wimp. x)
