A Healthy Balance of Breaks & Work

Media Studies seems to be looking more interesting at the moment. We're studying the slasher horror genre, so Sarah had us watching documentaries about it today and making notes. Lots of gory clips and commentary from the directors - so this was fairly entertaining.
In Photography, I sat with Michelle and we both did some work on editing our photos. This icons project is seriously wank. I like the work I did over the break - so I want to get on with that, but noooo...
And as always, English was relativley shite. I despise the group and the subject matter is just pissing me off currently. Angela better start changing the lesson directions or I'm going to become a terror.

During my beasty break, I wandered into town.
I got myself a £1.99 King Deal from Burger King and sat on the green benches outside while I ate it. I can cope with the mustard, mustard is okay. I can pick out the gherkins - I just fucking despise tomato sauce. I end up wiping it off the bun with my napkin, but only because I'm too nervous and meek to simply say: "Can I have that with no sauce, please?"

I'd aquired some cash so I went to CEX and bought some Gamecube games.
I've decided that I need an equal balance of Gamecube and PS2 games. The 'Cube will always be my favourite, but the way my wishlist is looking, and the price of some of these PS2 games, I'm going to end up with more. I have about 50 'Cube games currently, so I'm going for 'Cube-exclusive titles as well as some others that are available on both - but I'd rather play with 'Cube controls.

So today I got XIII and Spyro: Enter The Dragonfly.
This is insane. I've bought 5 games this week, and THREE of them are SHOOTERS.
The genre I despise with a passion. I'm trying to broaden my gaming horizons, perhaps. Ian's told me that XIII is good - and I read the back cover, it's all cel-shaded comic-strip style graphics - so it looks okay... We'll just have to see if the whole shooting narrative fucks it over.

During the rest of my break, I sat in the LRC and finished off Pokémon Sapphire - beating the Elite Four.
So I've marked it down as BEATEN on my Backloggery. I might go for the full Hoenn Dex. Fuck the National Dex, I can't be chewed.
