Fighting Dreamer

Hullo again. It's been less than a week! Huzzah! I've felt the need to post for a few days now, but I just now got a decent topic to write about. I realized something tonight, not for the first time mind you, but I thought about it for the first time in a while. I figure I should write it down somewhere before I manage to forget again.

Inspirations:

I've been playing Infinite Undiscovery recently. Lovely game really, if you're interested in RPGs I suggest you check it out. I personally am throughly enjoying it.
Any who, I realized something today while playing the game. I love stories.
Now, when I say this, I don't mean in the general sense. I love stories. It really explains a lot. My career path, my hobbies, everything. It's all so simple. Everything revolves around the story. Reading the story, telling the story, writing the story. I'm story crazy.
It's funny, because I tend to be mildly ADD. My attention span is that of a squirrel.
Except when there's a good story. I can play RPGs for hours on end without losing interest at all. I can marathon the Lord of the Rings movies and not miss a single line.
Good stories make me happy. I'm glad I've got a crap ton of unplayed/unfinished RPGs laying around. I'm glad I have unread books lying around.
Because this summer, it's all about that fictional dream.

Well That Wasn't According To Plan...

Hullo there. Been a bit again. I'd lie and say I was doing something important, like, I dunno, studying for finals maybe. But that just seems pointless now. In any case, the semester is finishing up, so I figure I should post something. That, and again, there have been a few things on my mind. Also: I'm procrastinating.

This is keeping me from studying for J101:

Well alright. I took a few minutes break before actually attempting to write what I intended to, and I realized that I have no idea how to phrase this. What I've been thinking about is a fairly complex series of thoughts, all intertwined all steming from different ideas and concepts. It's actually fairly hard to put together into coherent words (at least for me) and I'm really struggling with the concept. Maybe that's why I've been thinking about it so much lately.
Or maybe it's because I have way too much free time, and so little to do with it.
In anycase, my thoughts are still far to scattered to actually compile into something resembling a fleshed out blog, so for now, I bid this adieu. On to more tangible things.

I am a happy little girl right now. Nintendo is remaking pokemon gold and silver. Day one purchase here. Maybe even a pre-order. Pokemon gold and silver have always been my favorites, and i've spent considerable amounts of time with each incarnation of the series. Ho-Oh you will be mine. Lugia too maybe, I'm considering getting both versions this time around.

In other gaming related news, I'm actually fairly interested in the new DJ (DJ Hero and Scratch: The Ultimate DJ) games coming out. I was terrible at Beatmania IIDX the few times I tried it, so a more mainstream version might do me some good? Probably not, but i'll be paying attention to both DJ titles as more info comes out.

Also: YOU CAN CONTRA CODE FACEBOOK! Do it now for the luls. And if you don't know what contra code is you can look it up on your own. I refuse to link for that, on principle.
