Trilogy
Wednesday. 1.27.10 9:06 am
Well, lookey here, I'm making a post again.

Not much to report. School's going well enough. My new fourth block is going to grate on my nerves, but I had nothing else to take and I kind of like being at ATC for fourth block, so, I'll deal with it.

Would it creep you out if I told you I know that you're reading this? It's true. I do.

Hmm...


Anyway, I've finally started getting into the meat of Metroid Prime Trilogy. I played MP3 through once, and now I'm starting the entire thing over with MP1. It's still fantastic, even though I've played the gamecube version countless times. By countless I mean 4 or 5 times...it strikes me how cheesy the plot is sometimes, but it doesn't bother me too much. It's just fun.

Fun, fun, fun. I interviewed with a guy from Brown University on Saturday. He was pretty great. I think we talked for an hour and a half, all told. He said that I was a great candidate for Brown as far as personality goes. My grades aren't half bad either. So the fact that he seems to like me is probably a good sign. The same goes for the lady from MIT. She wasn't as engaging, but she was definitely nice. I think they both are going to recommend me. Wheee!

I got accepted into Clemson already. For a while I was psyching myself out, wondering if I would be able to get into ANY of the schools I applied to. But I got in, so that's great. Now I'll have a fantastic backup if everything else falls through.

MP2 has some nice music tracks. And a lot of them, too.

I am just not writing well lately. I mean, look at this. My thoughts are hardly flowing well, even within themselves. I wrote a commentary for an excerpt from Hamlet that was only 4 pages long, double spaced. (That's written, not typed.) It was a bit concerning. I guess I'm just off.

My dog's getting old. :| She now refuses to walk within 4 feet of the kitchen and doesn't readily move across any of the wood floor. I think it's because her nails are so long that she slips everywhere she goes. Doooooggyyyyyyy.

She still loves a good scratch behind her ears. d'awww

Lauren bought me a milkshake on the way to Dead Theologians after school yesterday. So I was sitting in a Panera Bread, with a milkshake from Chick-Fil-A, and it was delicious. I've never had the peppermint ones before. CERTAIN PEOPLE were going overboard with the coveting. I've never felt so guilty consuming a gift from someone that I ended up paying for anyway. What gives.

I saw Saw (VI?) last night. The newest one. It was...different. I dunno if they did that on purpose, but it was. Kyle loves the Saw movies. I just think they're OK. The plot twists are pretty sweet, but when you have a twist that extends into earlier movies, that means people have to watch ALL of the movies to get it. And that's frustrating.

GORE GORE GORE GORE GORE

That's frustrating too.

I'm still astounded with the awesomeness from the Sherlock Holmes soundtrack. Hans Zimmer is the man. I should find more of his soundtracks...

After I finish this powerpoint on the differences between French and Georgian architectural styles.

did the sherlock holmes soundtrack have that version of "the rocky road to dublin" on it? i liked that version a lot. when i heard that song come on during the boxing, i started dancing around in my seat to it.

AHHHHH, I cannot get the Sherlock Holmes soundtrack out of my head ever since I saw it on Friday!!!!

I liked the first saw, thought the second was OK, hated the third and haven't seen anymore. It's like this generations friday the 13th or nightmare on elm st with all the sequels, but it will never be as good as either of those IMO.

Meh. Flowing thoughts...sometimes they're good, but only if you want to hold yourself up to that standard. Otherwise, jot it dooown and let it gooooo

I LOVE METROID PRIME. Never got around to playing the 3rd one (by the time it came out, I was already a console behind), but the first two were excellent. Favorite map: Phendrana Drifts. Now that I think about it, I'm kinda curious how the 3rd one ends...to Wikipedia I go...

oh and thumbs up to zimmer as well

Whatever the difference is between this timestamp and my last one, that's the amount of time I just spent looking up Metroid prime stuff on wikipedia. scoooooore
» The-Muffin-Man on 2010-01-28 04:07:38

Haha ok true. IT felt like longer....I think I had already done that in the past though so there wasn't too much new stuff to look up.

But toooo late! Haha I won't be getting corruption anyways since I no have wii...poopy.

Ummm Chrome has extensions now...are you in love yet?
» The-Muffin-Man on 2010-01-29 07:19:46

Eh upside down extensions??

You know what's crazy, is that I craned my head around to try and read it upside down to see if I would be granted some sort of insane knowledge. But, failure.

» Ruby-in-slippers on 2010-01-30 10:15:59

i just dont like the way you smell like chemicals after you go swimming in a pool. specially indoor ones.
» Ruby-in-slippers on 2010-01-30 10:22:44
