Well Christmas has past, and we just have a new year to go now. So what has happened to me these past days?
I mentioned my reinstalling windows because of a problem with Service
Pack 2. Well, I’m now in the process of finishing up installing
programs after the THIRD time of reinstalling. Windows update is
telling me to update to SP2, but I think I’ll past for now until I have
everything settled.As of Dec 24, my car is one year old! What’s funny is that I
already have about 20,200 miles on it! At this rate, in five
years it will aproximately have 101,000+ miles, and in ten years it
will probably have 202,000+ miles. But by then I will probably be
getting one of those hybrid cars or maybe a flying car!
My God, by then I will be 38 years old! My aunt and cousin are visiting for the next two weeks.
Unfortunately I’ll be primarily at work, but I hope to spend some
quality time with them.Remember how I said I got KOTOR2 for the xbox,
but I haven’t even beaten the first one? Well, my cousin gave me
Prince of Persia 2 : the Warrior Within for her Christmas gift to me,
and you probably guessed it be now but just like KOTOR, I haven’t even
beated the first Prince of Persia game.
My cousin is actually not much of a video gamer, but she recently felt
the urge to learn how to play video games more. You know, she
needs to work on her hand to eye coordination in moving a virtual
character through a virtual world. I offered to help her learn,
and I decided that the first Prince of Persia game would actually be a
good game to accomplish that. It’s a complete package in learning
how to play a game actually. You got the platforming elements,
the fighting, the puzzle solving, and the adventure aspect that is
common in gaming. Actually, we played a good four hour session on
it, and in turn I might actually get to beat the game as well.
The game IS actually pretty darn good, and I can’t believe I let it sit idly by for a whole year.Well, I still have about 6 – 8 programs to install and I plan to sleep by 6AM, so that’s it for now.
