Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!

[Doodleshark]

'Lo, peeps. I'm beginning a new term tomorrow... It will be the first time I've been in an actual classroom for nearly a year. Hopefully things will go better this time...

Oh yeah, it's also a snow day for me today, although according to the news it's a snow day nearly everywhere in North America as well. Now I'm off to spend another eight hours of my life in post-apocalyptic Las Vegas. Doei! *Gets shredded by a Deathclaw.*

[SuzuTitor]

I might just go to bed early, except I'm waiting for a package. See, I got tired of looking everywhere for Tsukihime (it's really rare) so I finall gave up and ordered off a Japanese web site. I got a pretty good price, but I think it's still the most expensive game I've ever gotten... Anyway, no matter how many times I tried, the site wouldn't take my credit card and my company insisted the problem wasn't on their end. But there was an option to pay via COD (apparently that's still fairly common in Japan). Conveniently enough, I was able to choose the time frame when the delivery guys is supposed to come so I chose 6 - 9, since that was the only time frame I could be sure I'd be home from work. So yeah, gotta stay up at least until it arrives.

Hope it arrives, and definitely enjoy the read.
I'll recommend changing the music to their updated album before anything though.

Cha!
I really envy you Josiah, you are in gaming mecha in Japan...*sigh* anyway, sorry to hear you aren't feeling very well. I'm actually doing really well myself here. I went to the Trafford Centre in Manchester yesterday and spent like £90 on cloths...the fact I'm made up is I actually got into cloths from New Look. This might sound odd, but it means I've FINALLY lost enough weight to get cloths from "trendy outlets". I'm one step closer to being able to buy what I want and not what fits! I'm only 2 pounds of losing 1 and a half stone!

[Josiah]

Hi! I'd be a bit more enviable if I could read another 1500 or so kanji and actually had more time to play games. 9 hours work days plus two hour commutes doesn't leave a lot of free time. Especially when I've got things like my job search that I need to focus on.

But yeah, my package came! I'll probably be starting Tsukihime as soon as I finish Kira Kira (which I just started last week). As for the music, I got Tsukibako (the special edition which includes the Plus Disc and sequel), which is why it was so expensive. Anyway, one of the improvements is re-mastered music, so I'm all set there. Said package also included the special edition of Planetarian (since said web site had a really good price for it). Of course, it turns out that the English patch doesn't work with the CD version so I had to torrent the regular version then add in the voice files but yeah, I'm good to go now. At this point, I've got all the visual novels on my list except for Chaos Head and Little Busters. Both are easy enough to find, so I'll pick them up when I have some money to spare.

In more good news, I'm feeling a whole lot better (though still a little sick). Thank you, Morinda Supreme!

[shauni]

Cha!

I didn't really mean if I was in Tokyo I'd be buying and just playing games. I mean just being around an area that is games everywhere. I'd be in and out of the shops just looking at everything pretty hahaha. Man, I'd love to go in the arcades there and the pachinko parlors...oh, I'd love to go in Studio Ghibli as well....or a manga shop....man, the best I get here is one shop WAY far away or one shelf in only BIGGER book stores....* pouts * I'd really like to just be around the expo atmosphere really...I've never been to any gaming event so to have that be a way of life in gaming areas sounds like heaven to me.

[Siranae]

I'M FREE!!!!!!!

After all these months I'm finally done with all my college stuff! My last portfolio review was Saturday! I was gonna come back a little after, but I got sick and spent a few days after asleep on the couch. Then there were the mountains of homework I'd neglected, and the ever-present swim practices, and...yeah.

Now I can get to work on those Mafia comics I owe you guys.

So what's up? :D

[Marluxia]

Эй странно людоедских людей!
After a long period of time....I post again. Overall I've been busy with school and hockey. (3rd place at the start of the playoffs woo!) Today I cut up my arm and bashed my knee in for the 5th time this week yay! I haven't told you guys, but I am in fact russian. Hence my greeting.

[Pikachu127]

Hi.

I really would like to apologize for my actions in the past, and make a new reputation for myself. I forgive the ones who I think were mean to me (though in reality, they were probably right), and I would like to be welcomed back to the forums with semi-open arms, if not completely open.
As I look back upon my actions, I had displayed myself as an idiotic random guy who didn't give a @#$% about others, which had needlessly attracted quite a bit of bad attention. I'm back, and I'd like to change for the better.

[SuzuTitor]

I can definitely welcome back one who reflected back and wish to change for the better.
Welcome back Pikachu.

[shauni]

Cha!

The world should be for second chances. It's not like you ran over anyone's dog with a car! In fact, I don't even know about any rep you have! I've only been active proper for a month myself! Welcome back or something!

[Josiah]

Hi! Sira, Marluxia, nice to see you back! Same to you pikachu. Hope things go better for you this time around.

And Shauni, I wouldn't be too eager to go into pachinko parlors unless you really like those kinda random eat your money gambling machines. Even if you do, pachinko parlors are as a rule defeaningly loud and filled with ciggerette smoke so they're generally not much fun to be in even if you're winning.

[PoisonWing14]

Moi,

Welcome back! Umm...not much to say...umm...what they said, I guess.

Gah, I've got a sore throat...stupid colds/allergies. Well, at least it's a half-day today! (A half-day? In highschool? Believe it!) I only have my first 4 periods today, two of which are free! I'm think when I get home, I'll be going right back to sleep, or at least take an hour-long nap.

Other then that...I'm bored out of my skull. Just waiting for 8:45 to roll around to go to CAD, then Math (up two flights of stairs. Not fun.), then another free period. Maybe I'll go home early today...but that would mean walking a mile in the cold weather...oh, the options...

[shauni]

Cha!


It's the same kinda thing as before that I was saying. I just want to see one really. You see these things in anime that look so different to every day life. I just want to see them for real. We only really have arcades at sea side resorts over here, and there full of grabbers and fruit machines. Any game are light air gun games, racing games or 100 year old horse racing or DDR machines. The best one I ever saw was a game that had a bike section you peddles on and moved up and down, and on the screen, you were a playing bike glider thing and you had to hit targets. I'd spend ages on that if the gym had one.

[Josiah]

Hi! Nothing too exciting at the moment (doing laundry), I've got some good plans for tomorrow though...

[Kaida]

Greetings from down under!

Where its hot and humid, anyone care to send some of that cold weather this way, or an air con at least?

^_^ No I haven't forgotten you guys, just been busy, and I gotta watch how much time I spend and what I do on the net, otherwise i use up all my data for the month in one week and then go through withdrawl symptoms for the rest of the month. So yeah, spreading it out so I end up doing not much on the net at all... Which doesn't really make sence, but anyway.

I'll welcome you back with open arms Pikachu. But only if you eat this choc chip cookie and join the dark side with me. ^_^ Just kidding.
You've Reflected, Apologized, and decided to be a better person and moved on. That's enough for me. ^_^
