Time for another journal entry. I'm going to put everything I can think of, so forgive me if it looks disorganized.
But where to begin? I guess I should update you all on my progress on FFVIII. Well, here it is. I passed it. Watched the ending. Loved it. It's funny how much trouble Ultimecia gave me on my first file, which is why I made the second one. Finding rare magic does make a difference, I didn't even use Squall. Unlike most people, I just use the first party I'm given and hope for the best. During the first three fights, I had Selphie, Zell, and Rinoa. Couldn't revive poor Zell in time, but Irvine did a good job when he tagged in. In Ultimecia's last speech in the very final battle, I just spammed Normal Shot for the lulz. I made things even easier by refining Bahamut's card, which grants 100 Megalixirs. Once Hell's Judgment hit, a Megalixir was used. Oh, and the ending was kinda strange to me at first, but I'm glad it's a happy one.
Now it looks like I'm gonna be bored until Christmas, and that's an awfully long time. I decided to get a PS3 once I save up enough money, and hopefully I'll have enough by Christmas. Kinda sad that a big business needs to cut our bonuses when accidents happen, but I guess it can't be helped.
Oh, what do I plan to play on the PS3? I was thinking about the Sonic Collection they have at Walmart and perhaps other cheap games. However, the best thing on my list to play is probably White Knight Chronicles 2. I saw a video of it and I want it. I plan to play online, but this is where I need help. I'm no expert on technology and its complicated terms so I feel intimidated by what Internet service to get. Some people have recommended Cox, others recommended a wireless router or a combination of the first two options. I really don't know how the online feature works for the PS3. No matter how many times I ask other people, I still have trouble understanding. I feel like a dunce. Not even Google has helped >_>
Has anyone watched the original Saint Seiya? It's an anime from the late 80s and it's pretty darn good. Sadly, it didn't do so well when they finally dubbed it in English around ten years ago. Only 60 episodes were made, and I'm guessing what killed was probably a certain scene in the Libra Temple. What did everyone expect from an anime where the majority of the cast was male? >_> Anyway, if anyone wants to talk about it then come to me. It's my latest obsession and I'll be sure to talk your ears off o_o
Now there's life in general. First off, Black Friday's coming. And I cringe at the thought of it since I work for a big business. I find it pretty ridiculous that hordes of people trample others for the sake of low prices. And I was around there last year, too. And I made the mistake to shop when I got off, the lines were never ending. The guy in front of me bought like 100 items and we were both on the 20 items or less line, but I do work for a company where the customer is ALWAYS right, no matter what. And given how long all the other lines were, of course no one else was going to care so I had no choice but to wait. Thankfully, I work overnights now so I come in at 10 PM every time. No more working a late evening shift on one day and a morning shift the next.
As for my love life, I'm feeling better than ever before. I owe that to the conversations I've been having with other people, they really helped. Granted, I still have my bouts of despair but it's nothing I can't handle. My biggest worry now is finding that someone special. It's going to be difficult, and do you know why? I tend to disagree with many people, and here's why.
I'm Catholic. I disagree with many of the things done in this world today but I still let people go their own way. Yet I live in the Bible Belt, where we see a lot of Christianity. Yet there's teen pregnancy (lots of it), men who would hit their wives, ignorance, lack of acceptance, and other things that I'd rather keep to myself as they are not a big deal to a vast majority of people. I live in an area where Christianity is supposed to be dominant. Why don't people practice what they preach? Not everyone's a Christian, I'm sure, but conservatives states like the one I live in sometimes have it wrong. Not just wrong, but VERY wrong. Heck, I'm sure most of the people here would side with the GOP and make it difficult for women to fight domestic violence just to make the Democrats mad. I'm infuriated. Where are the Christian values they normally preach?
It's how serious I am about Christianity. I do my best not to pick and choose what to believe in. And by that I mean I'm not gonna be against abortion but be all for the death penalty. I'm against both, personally. That's what pro-life is supposed to be ABOUT! I disagree with many of the people around me and that's why a lot don't like me once they see who I really am. I'm scared about my future because I fear I'll never find someone who can accept me just as much as I'll accept her. I don't want to be alone, but I don't want to settle either.
But I guess this is where I should end my rant. I leave you here with this pic. More Saint Seiya. Personally, I don't believe in horoscopes but it's scary how accurate astrology can be as far as characteristics are concerned. As for the pic, my favorites are Virgo and Scorpio.
Let's play a game. What would you like to hear about the man wearing the armor based on your sign? And who else would you take if you had to make a team? I'd pick to take Andromeda's and Unknown Entity's signs, but I wouldn't trust them since Scorpio would be the only good guy out of the three >.> <.<
Just kidding. I love you both and would love to have you on my team. <3
