The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

If you are subscribed to my YouTube channel, then you were probably flooded with all of my recent uploads. I posted five videos today. The final three episodes of my Hearts tiny-series, the finale of QWOP, and my speed run of the Browser game Free Ice Cream. I also updated my channel art for my channel.

In the future for my channel, I hope to continue uploading videos regularly (as long as work doesn't get crazy busy again). I have an idea for a series to work on. And I think I may do a weekly wrap-up video of what games I've played, filmed in a vlog style. I may venture into vlogging, when I get a better camera. My webcam is alright, but it slows down the computer when I use it.

Anyway, I played Euphloria and Grand Theft Auto IV today. I was up late playing Euphloria last night. Before I went to bed, I finished Level 10. Today when I played, I completed each level again to make sure I collected the Ancient Artifacts. Honestly, the game isn't as much fun as the video I watched. It is just a simple game, with basic graphics. It's not too exciting. I do feel bad when I send the little fly-like seeds to a certain death, though. But not too bad. I have earned two trophies for this game (9% complete).

And in Grand Theft Auto IV, I earned the trophy for earning $500,000. I have missions for Phil Bell, Gerry McCreary, and someone else (I can't remember the name, some mafia guy; but not Jimmy P, the other one, starts with a G). Before I stopped playing this evening, I was trying to get ten cars to blow up all at once. But I didn't do too well. I have a plan to do it though. I just need to guarantee that no one will steal the cars while I'm not in them.

The home life was nice and quiet today. Dad did come in today, bragging about how he gave blood. Ooh, you did something and now you're talking about it to make yourself feel good. I'm sorry (not really), but you don't volunteer or do good things because you need to feel good about yourself. You do them because you truly want to. More than likely, he gave blood and was paid for it.

Here's why I think that. I wrote a check for my portion of the water bill. He then cashes the check, and still hasn't paid the water bill. I know he cashed the check because I got an Email from the bank about it. And my brother says that Dad hasn't paid the water bill yet. So it makes me wonder what he did with my money. Oh well. I guess I could always send in my portion straight to the company itself, instead of trusting Dad to pay it.

Anyway, that's all for now. I am off to play some more. If you see me on PSN, feel free to leave me a message. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
