The Orange Box is my only game so far. Halo 1 and 2 will be bought used this weekend, and I'll be acquiring bioshock and assassin's creed tonight.

I am very excited, and down $605.20, but that's okay.

I'll probably pick up the new soul cally for xbox360 in a month or two.

I've never played online, I think it is, but I don't actually know.

Insane, absolutely insane.

Yesterday I worked for all of 10 minutes on mastering Lurario's down-B move, double team. I've become more of a spammer with it than anything as of right now (), but am becoming better with the timing of it. I played a couple rounds against a friend of mine and was able to do pretty well while focusing most of my time on getting double team to work. I fear that I will have to use an attacking CPU in training mode to refine the skill. Double team works by Lucario going into an animation, if you're hit in the right timeframe, you evade the attack and swoop in on your opponent from behind. I find that a string of A-button attacks follows suit best afterward. Double team is the last Lucario skill I have left to fully (or somewhat, lol) master. Asides from this one move, I'm extremely proficient with the rest of his moveset. I consider Lucario to be my best character since he fits my playing style well. He gains attack power the more damage he takes, which is good because I like to charge in. I'm in love with his projectile (B) and his Meteor Smash (down-A when in air) since it slows your falling and takes out anyone below you. The rest of his moves are awesome and have some good range (particularly left/right-B). And his recovery move Extreme Speed (up-B) is nice too. But the Final Smash, that's nothing special, oh well. --- And because I'm in the talking mood. My other favorite character to play as is Zero Suit Samus, hereby referred as ZSS. Where I may have some refining left to do with Lucario's moveset, I'm much better at using ZSS's. To quote my friend's little brother, "I hate playing someone who is good with ZSS." I fight differently with Lucario and ZSS, with Lucario I use the A-attacks more frequently to combo, with ZSS I take advantage of the wide range of B-attacks. ZSS's B-attacks revolve around the electro-plamsa whip, which is awesome. It has a range of maybe 2 or 3 character lengths, and if the opponent is hit with the end of the hit, they take a good deal of damage. One of my preferred stategies is using her B attack to paralyze the opponent temporarily and then using left/right B to hit them with the charged end of the whip. I'm sure that the left/right-A smash would work well instead of the B attack, but I've yet to test it. The electrowhip is such a fun weapon, and ZSS's flip kick is also pretty sweet. But her meteor smash is trouble if done incorrectly v_v. Alright, done.

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.

It all may seem incredibly crazy right now, but just take a step back and take a deep breath or two. School is important, yes, but don't let it rule your life. Sleeping late is not a sin, I'm going to automatically assume that you went to bed late. Homework takes time and concentration, I don't recommend mixing it in with TV unless you don't really need to concentrate on it. Once you can prioritize everything, you won't have any more problems. A good schedule will aid you like no other. Don't lose yourself in your work and lose track of what is really important, you. You'll make it through, I promise.

Dial-Up speeds. I found out today that there's a problem with the DSL line coming to our house, our internet is running at less than a tenth of the speed it should be. vv

What did you end up getting?

I just got 3 of these delightful sets in the mail. Ordered them off the Lego Shop on Monday or Tuesday. I was originally gonna get 2, but I could get 3 and the shipping price wouldn't change, since the shipping is the same from $0-$25. Several years ago it only used to go up to $20, and I was sad when they changed it, but no more! I built one of them when I got them, the other 2 sets are still in their boxes. I needed the nifty little parts with the 120-degree spaced angles for a WIP. I can now make the correct feet and make the second shoulder. Maybe I'll use some of the sticker-decals as decoration, I dunno. Good set, $8 a pop, you should go pick one up.

I used to build spaceships too when I was younger. Should get back to that, but color coordination would go out the window, oh well.

Lol, there's no space for a minifig in there, maybe I should tweak SMv2 a little though... but not to put a minifig in.

I R <3 Ruki!

After much configuring of router settings, I finally got the danged thing to work. Thanks in no small part to some guy from the linksys support forum. Ironically, all of the things that this guy told me to do was stuff a friend of mine told me to do over 2 weeks ago, I just didn't understand how do to it cuz I didn't want to sound stupid.

MIKEY!

A rahkshi that is planning on jumping takua?

I'm using a souped up ASUS M50Sa right now, I highly recommend getting the M51. Lots of great features and definitely a lot of bang for your buck. Are you gonna be running Vista?

I got stuck on my entry so I couldn't finish it, oh well.

Song: I Love the Night Artist: Blue Öyster Cult Album: Spectres Lyrics: That night her kiss told me it was over I walked out late into the dark The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow The further I went on I felt a spreading calm Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in light And the lovely lady in white was by my side She said like me I see youre walking alone Wont you please stay? I couldnt look away She said I love the night The day is ok and the sun can be fun but I live To see those rays slip away I love the night Theres so much I can show and give to you If you will welcome me tonight If only you had been there my dear We could have shared this together No mortal was meant to know such wonder One look in the mirror told me so Come darkness Ill see her again Yes Im gonna go cause now I know I love the night The day is ok and the sun can be fun but I live To see those rays slip away I love the night I love the night I love the night

Lol, I'll see what I can do.

Progress on the entry has been slow over the past week. Av-Matoran: No new updates. Bohrok: Complete. Bohrok Kaita: -I recently purchased a second krika to complete the left arm. -I worked a little last night (at 2AM) and more just now on the leg design. Both legs are now done. -The spine-design for the back has also been completed, I just have to figure out a way to hide the rubber band a bit better. -The cumulation of the above bullets have allowed me to piece together most of the moc, I now need to create a set of armor to compliment the back, and attach the head. -The head will retain the ability to move back and forth, but it has to be done manually, rather than with a gear. I should have the entry finished by tomorrow afternoon, so I should be entered by tomorrow evening!

I actually prefer the wii setup other the standard gamecube controller since my hands don't have to be crammed next to each other. But that's just me.

No.
