So I've now gotten back two of my final exam scores... I got a 76 in my physics class, which was actually enough to bump me up to a B- in the class. After bombing the first midterm, I'm satisfied with my final grade. But I spent so much time worrying about physics that I didn't study enough for my matrices/linear algebra class, which had a final on the same day. Failed the final, barely got a C for the class. Yet my exam scores are still above average for my section at least. Still doesn
So it seems that while trying to outbid the highest bid, I actually managed to get it right on the second auction - the one I hadn't even tried yet. And it's exactly at the point I was going to bow out. With less shipping than the other one I was trying for and lost. So unless something changes in the next hour and a half, it looks like I will be getting me a Muaka & Kane-Ra. Oh thank goodness I'm working over break. ~|ET|~
*sigh* While I was sleeping the max bids on both auctions for Muaka & Kane-Ra seem to have skyrocketed such that I can't even figure out what they are... And that means it's pretty much above what I'm willing to spend. I wish eBay would just tell you the actual bid instead of hiding it to goad you into trying ever higher amounts. That's so cruel (and not how live auctions work). But yeah, looks like I'm not getting them now... ~|ET|~
So two auctions on eBay both end in a little over a day, and have Muaka & Kane-Ra going for pretty darn cheap (EDIT: $30 for both in one lot, $10 for both for another at the moment - probably should've just said that to begin with ).... I'm tempted to get in on at least one. Any of you out there think it's worth it? ~|ET|~
... ... YYAAAAAYYYYYYYYY! !!!! !!! Of course, getting 10,000 votes in Cuusoo was just step one. Now let's hope they can actually do something with it. ~|ET|~
Oh god it just got so much worse. I can actually hear gunshots as a response of Coach Paterno's firing (my entry this morning was over him announcing his retirement). I'm legitimately scared for my life because of the riots forming. ~|ET|~
When will they ever figure out that differently sized boxes do exist? Especially small ones? It's like all stores in Japan that ship internationally don't realize that you can use more than three (or so) sized boxes. This is the package I just received from HobbyLink Japan. What you see on top of the box is literally all that was in there. Granted, I didn't even know Bandai was sending out these faces for everything that ordered the figure. Which is awesome, since every single pi
So I was just up for about 32 hours. And then slept for 8. And still want sleep pretty darn badly, but headaches kind of preven that. But so yeah. Hey you. We just raised $2000 to help Children's Miracle Network Hospitals! How did you spend your weekend? ~|ET|~
In just 2 short hours from now, I'm going to begin my 24 hour gaming marathon. I'm so pumped for this! I still can't believe I was one of the people contacted to try and set this up here. I know we're a little late, but that happens when you don't have much warning. Next year, I'm sure it'll be even easier. My only concern now is having people actually want to participate as they're walking by. And, of course, finding a way to get online so I can keep working on ranking up in Halo: Reach.
Forgot to mention that we FINALLY got approval to host the ExtraLife 24 hour gaming marathon. We're a liiiittle late, but hey, the money'll still be going to a great cause, so who cares? And it's gonna be in the main HUB lounge (the HUB being the central student building - basically, a lot of people go through there)... Right next to "Occupy Penn State." XD I think the dichotomy of the lounge is a little funny, but oh well, I'm just gonna have fun gaming. And oh yeah... You can still donat
So I've fallen down a new rabbit hole. And I don't regret it at all. I finally got my first Kamen Rider S.H. Figuart, and if I could sum him up in one word it would be "beautiful." Seriously, the amount of detail in this figure is phenomenal. The only complaint I would have is that the packaging is rather beat up and doesn't really close properly (and actually had a lot of dust on it o_O), but I can forgive that. After all, I did get this with free shipping haha. So yeah. I'm reeee
So for those of you that pay attention... Remember that video game marathon I should be doing right now? Yeah, it's been postponed. Running a club at a large university does indeed suck at times. Especially when you're a small club *sigh* ~|ET|~
So you wanna know what sucks? Running a club at a large university. So you wanna know what's awesome? Running a club at a large university. Some of my best days this semester - football games aside - have been during our club meetings. Some of my best friends here were made in getting involved with the club. And to top it all of, we're a gaming club, so everything we do is sure to be fun. But since we actually wanted to do something meaningful, and I was even contacted directly to
So a lot of people seem to be posting stuff about what they did in the downtime... I kept on collecting. Rather, I started collecting against, since 2009/most of 2010 killed my collecting interest in BIONICLE. I've been working on finishing my BIONICLE collection and have reentered the world of Transformers. Man, Classics ones are expensive, but that's what I'm working on. I also got interested in Kamen Rider, so wouldn't be surprised if I buy a few S.H. Figuarts of my favorite Riders s
I don't think it's too well-known that I work at McDonald's. Cuz, like, I do. And I'm heading to work pretty soon. And I'm turning in my leave of absence paperwork today. I don't know why, but I'm actually really sad about it... I know I'm welcomed back whenever I have a break and next summer of course, but still... I made some friends there I didn't expect to (and tragically lost one last year), and even though there are some pretty bad days, I still enjoy it there. Just another side effect
