Apologies

I feel I need to apologize to you all for my general lack of existing for the past few weeks. There's been a lot of tension and generally unpleasant things going on here at college, academically or otherwise. It's getting close to losing several friends down here, and I'm smack in the middle of it being the only one about four or five people trust on both sides. Even though I don't have Good Friday off next week, I'll probably end up going home after classes next weekend just to get away.   Any

Demon's Tears -- Bear With Me

Evidently, the recent incident has hugely affected the progress of Demon's Tears -- it doesn't exist anymore. Weird, 'cause I could've sworn I had posted it before September.   Ah, well. It's gonna be a hassle, but since I am conveniently on Spring Break, I'm gonna do my best to restore what I can before I head back to college on Sunday. Just try and bear with me until then. Thanks!

Watchmen -- The Film

So, as I stated not too long ago in this blog, my friend here at college talked me into reading Watchmen. Loved the graphic novel, and couldn't wait for the film. This past Thursday, I sifted throught a few reviews from people who managed to catch early screenings of it, and in general, people said that it wasn't bad, but if you're a fan of the novel, prepare to be disappointed. Thus, I had already knew ahead of time about the ending.   Regardless, me and a few friends went to see it last night

Favor From Warhammer 40k Fans

Hey there! I need a favor from people who are into Warhammer 40,000. I've been reading some the of novels for a few years now, and I absolutely love the entire thing. However, I know that there's a series of books detailing the infamous Horus Heresy (conveniently called the Horus Heresy series), starting with the book Horus Rising. I do not know the titles off all of the novels, though.   So, basically, if someone could provide a list of titles of all the Horus Heresy novels that are out there

General Update

Hey, long time no see. I'm currently typing this from the common room on my floor. Thus far, this semester hasn't been anything too cringe-worthy. My schedule for this semester:   Arthurian Tradition -- Pretty much anything and everything about the literature of King Arthur, its history, and how much is factual. Pretty fun class. Introduction to Literary Methods and Critical Approaches -- The basic intro class into the English Major; requirement. My professor is AWESOME and the class is ridi

Left 4 Dead

I got it for PC. And it's awesome. My Steam ID is Sahaal if anyone who has it wants to play online.   Seriously. BUY. THIS. GAME. It is far, far too much fun for its own good.

Bioshock Problem

Hey all, I need a little help. I'm having some issues with BioShock running. I'll start running it, go through the first "mission" (plane crash) and into Rapture to watch Johnny get eviscerated by a Splicer. No problems. I pick up the radio like Atlas says. The door of the bathysphere opens. As soon as I start walking, the game gets incredibly laggy, to the point where it's unplayable. The pause menu takes a full ten to fifteen seconds to appear. I've cleaned the disk, the disk drive, cleaned ev

College Finals

You ever see on TV, etc. all those stereotypes of how life-threatening and insane college finals are? You know, no sleeping for weeks on end, flipping out, stocking up on food for late-night cramming, and all that jazz?   THAT. ISN'T. AN. EXAGGERATION.   Anyway, my finals are over and done with, thankfully. Grueling. And now I'm home till January 25th! 8D I'm going to try and actually get some writing done!

Home

Ah, home for Thanksgiving break. I actually got back Tuesday night, but I've been trying to relax since. Thanksgiving was fun, it was nice seeing everyone again. And then tomorrow I'm going to try and hang with with some old high school friends and see Quantum of Solace (will I have to have seen Casino Royale to get it?).   Oh yeah, and at some point I have to go ghost hunting either tomorrow night or Saturday night for my FYS class. I just can't find anyplace with some paranormal claims behind

Saw V

Hello there! I'm once again back at home for the weekend (I desperately needed some stuff) so I actually have time to blog! College is definitely a whole lot of work, but I only have a month or so left before the semester ends. Stressful, though.   While I'm here, I'm going to make some kind of attempt to progress on Demon's Tears. Whether it'll be Chapter 2 on here or writing new plot further along, I haven't decided yet. It won't be tonight, I'm wiped, but I'll try tomorrow before I have to h

Epic Updates

Hello! Just dropping in to give a couple updates:   First, as you'll eventually notice, I finally made a new banner for Demon's Tears, which I'm happy with (considering I did it in ten minutes in MS Paint). So yaysies on that!   Second, as promised, I added the first chapter the other night, in which I finally introduce your Toa. When I first wrote it, it was more of an experiment in working with your characters, so you'll notice how each one is focused on individually throughout. Hope you all

Demon's Tears

After a long wait, the prequel epic of Eternal Darkness -- the one featuring the four winners of my Toa contest a while back -- has arrived. Go on, read it!   See, I'm even providing a link to for you!   On a side note, I am working on a banner for it, though I'm failing miserably (an artist is not me). Still, I'm going to keep trying to get that look I want to give it. Yay for high hopes! Oh, and let me know if you guys want me to do another website for this one; not sure how successful the l

My Return

I have come home for the weekend plus Monday and Tuesday for Fall Break! I have been able to hop on BZP occasionally, and I have kept up with current storyline, but it's been difficult -- college has been brutal on my free time. But, regardless, I do have some stuff to say.   One, I love Closer to the Truth. Music video is cool, the singer's beautiful and looks almost exactly like Jennifer Love Hewitt (at least in that video). Actually, that's about all I needed to say.   Oh, and have I got a

Halp

Hi! I'm home for the weekend, since I ran out of quarters for laundry, among other reasons.   Anyway, I need some computer help. I'm trying to put a file from my laptop onto a DVD but I have no freaking idea what I'm doing. The DivX thing said it was burnt onto it, but when I put the disk in my DVD player it said something about the format not being right.   I am so freaking clueless. Can anyone lend me a hand please? I'd greatly, greatly appreciate it.

College

As I'm sure at least some of you know, like Watashi Wa, I am in college now. I got some time before my next class, so:Almost done my first week of classes.

Bye Guys

Well, tomorrow morning I head off on a near three-hour drive to college. So, I'm posting this to let you all know that I dunno when I'll have time to come on here again with all the madness that'll be going on (though, from the look of it, once I'm settled into the room I shouldn't have too much a problem hopping on here). Once classes start Monday, though... well, that's anyone's guess, really.   Sorry I didn't get the new epic at least started on BZP, I had every intention to at some point th

An Experiment

I'm about ready to flip out. With college less than a week away, I've been so freaking busy and stressed for so long now. Especially with that huge graduation party for me on Saturday. But between that, the dentist appointment I had the other day, getting stuff for college, contacting my roommate, reading my summer reading book... It's been insane. And to make things worse, I'm trying as hard as I can to get as much writing done on that epic before I have to leave, but I have the biggest writer'

Olmak Much?

This is the second or third year in a row I've completely forgotten about my BZP anniversary until the day after, when I just notice the new spinny.   So, I have an Olmak now. Yays!

Maybe Stalker?

Nobody in this house will leave me alone! I'm trying to get as much writing done as possible before I go to college, but people keep bothering me and turning on QVC when I try. Grrr.   But that's not what the title refers to. Today I went with my dad to see The Dark Knight (third time seeing it, and it's still just as awesome). It was fairly amusing, because there was a big storm going on, and right in the middle of the trailer for The Spirit, the power went out. A worker told us to go to the l
