I feel disgusting...

I found this quiz on Rachel's Xanga. And I took it. Ew...

Okay, back to reading.

Rehearsal boredom.

I have the suspicion that I'm not going to get too far into this before I'm pulled away to rehearsal again...

I'm at Honk! rehearsal, not really doing anything right now, so I'm going to update. Yay. I'm working crew for Honk! and I kind of enjoy it, at least when I'm actually doing something. Right now, I think I'd rather be doing umm... other stuff...

Nana and Gramps came up today for Grandparents' day tomorrow. It should be fun. We hung out a little bit today, but I have rehearsal, so not too long. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to entertain them for the next few days, but I'm sure I'll think of something. There's one problem: I still haven't really started my Philosophy essay. I rather hope it won't be too difficult.

Nintendo's president, Saotoru Iwata, announced today at the Game Developers Conference that the Revolution (rumored to still be a code name for the project) will also have the Sega Genesis and the TurboGrafix as "virtual consoles" on the machine. That means that not only will you be able to download past Nintendo games onto your Revolution, but you'll also be able to get over 1000 titles from Nintendo's former competitors. While this is cool, I kind of agree with a guy that commented on Gamespot: there's only so much value in having nostalgic, classic games. At some point, new features need to be stressed.

On the other hand, Nintendo seems most interested in creating new gaming features. The PS3 and Xbox 360 added features, but they are multimedia, non-gaming features such as video downloading, connectiviy with MP3 players, etc... Nintendo, through their motion sensing controller, is trying to find new ways to create and play video games, not create home entertainment hubs.

As for me, I am torn between the two. As a consumer, I want the most bang for my buck. If I can have something that functions as a DVD player (or Blu-ray movie player, in the case of the PS3), stereo, TV recording device, and a game console, I'll buy it. On the other hand, I want something focused on games. It's not like the Revolution, with exclusively wireless controllers, is going to be clutter.

Nintendo is also trying to be noncompetitive with the other two big companies. They instead want to focus on expanding the game demographic. Their plan is to reach out to people who have never (and never thought they would) play games. My fear is that they will make the Revolution to have such mass appeal that mainstream games won't go near it. Instead of the "Nintendo is for kids" mantra, we will hear "Nintendo is for games that are closer to Tetris and Nintendogs and not for the sweet RPG/FPS/action/adventure games that I love." Someday I hope to make games for Nintendo, so I certainly do not want them to do poorly simply because of the console that they are on.

So, I think I've written enough for now, even if it was mostly Geek. Have a good night.

This is all I've got.

Finally! **insert maniacal laughter** I have found a compiler for C++ and I have started programming again! The going is slow and I've forgotten most everything I knew back in 11th grade, but I'll learn! Maybe I'll even post small programs here... (Not that they'd be very fun)

I scheduled for next semester. I scheduled out the next six semesters in the event that I'll be here that whole time as a double Youth Min/Bible major and Computer Science minor. I'm not sure if I'll stick with that, but we'll see about that later.

I still haven't found out about the internship over the summer. I'm giving him until tomorrow evening before I email him again. After that, well... let's just say I'd rather not be his Inbox.

I think that's it. Questions? Email me.

Bite me.

Argh! I feel irritable! And I have to do homework that I forgot about! Grr!

Home again, home again

I get to go back to school tonight! Yay! We'll probably leave in an hour or so! Yay!

Spring break was good, but it will be nice to be back in my room.

Just kidding. We're not leaving until nine. Oh well, I'll be back soon.

I have a little bit of conclusion left to write on my paper, too. I need to take a look at a few of my sources before I can finish it. It shall be done. For tomorrow. To be turned in.

I don't think I did as well on this paper as the last one. I really hope that it doesn't kill my grade this semester...

Update over.

Hello again.

I'm not dead. I know that's surprising and kind of disappointing, but I'm not.

First, last week Tuesday, our dorm did a MediaFast. I gave up surfing the internet, watching DVDs, watching movies, and playing video games. I was kind of bored. Not too bored, because I've had lots to do, but kind of bored. MediaFast was kinda cool because I spent some more time with God, but it wasn't super super effective.

This week, I've been rushing to finish my research paper before I leave for spring break. I've only got my intro and conclusion to do, and I can do that on the car ride down.

To Florida (it needed its own line). I'm going to Florida tomorrow! I'm going with my friend Nate and his family to the Tampa area to soak up some 73 degree weather and sun. Woo!!

I also got the response for my leadership application. I applied for both Sherpa and DC (small group leader for chapel credit). I didn't think the interviews went really well, but apparently I was wrong. I got both. And, (an added plus and minus) I got DC for the apartments. I found out on Tuesday and I have to make a decision by tomorrow at 10:00 am. I have to commit to at least one more year at Cornerstone to take one.

I would love to explain it all right here and splurge and try to figure things out, but I've been working on my research paper for the last, oh I'd say about 9 hours. So i'm going to stop typing now.
