Progress

So, I went a bit quiet again. My own fault, I finally got my car back YAY. Only took like 4 weeks or so to replace the clutch. Studying away for my exam in June, That’s going ok. But the final assignment for the course has a deadline of 20th of May, So its kind of annoying me that i have that and its distracting from the final exam, but i have the past 5 or so years test papers and once the assignment is completely and handed in I’m going to sit down and do those and see what bits i really need to brush up on. Overall i feel confident that I’ll pass though, so that’s a bonus.

Next course has already started, thought it is in my opinion a fluff course. Team work in a distributed environment, FLUFF. See how it goes when i finally get to meet and get in contact with my team.

Slipped back into the bad habit of WoW though in the past few weeks… I know, I know… can we just leave that at that? I have absolutely no intentions of letting it take over again (Famous last words?) And have mostly just been PVPing so after 30mins/hour of getting soundly thrashed i usually turn it off anyway. Also ran through Halo 3 : ODST before the Halo Reach beta, and finished it on Legendary mode Co-Op with Twobits. Fun game on co-op, Multiplayer still feels a lot like Unreal to me, and i quickly loose interest. Halo Reach is mostly the same Multiplayer wise, not as twitchy though. And kind of evens the ground between pro/noobs so you don’t constantly feel like your dying with no revenge. Overall for me, fun to pickup and kill a few minutes with then go back to whatever you were doing before hand. Hoping the single player campaign is as good as the previous titles though and that they don’t pull a Call of Duty and just stick on flimsy excuse for a storyline to the multiplayer game.

We picked up G a Nintendo DSi too, which he LOVES for the moment. Got to watch him though because he’ll be off to “Bed” and then you’ll hear the Mario theme or Sonic and Sega’s All Star Racing theme playing from behind his covers or door.

Anyway, that's basically it. Study, Game, Study, Give G some attention, Study, Sleep.

I’ve been thinking about getting back into WoW. It just eats up so much time and there’s already enough crap to do!

I can totally empathize with the Study->Work->Study->Sleep cycle. Sucks. That’s why I’m never doing that again.

Good luck!

It really does eat up so much time, So much infact that I constantly cancel my subscription each month just so that if I’m busy my account will lapse and I won’t be tempted to just login for 5 minutes.

Its quite impressive how it sucks you back in though.
