RAGE.
Are the A2 students like an overlooked minority?
Yeah, tell all the shitty little AS students that the college buses AREN'T running, but totally let it slip your mind that there's still fucking A2s who get them as well!!
So on top of the fact I was TOO early for it - I was too early waiting for a fucking bus that wasn't even coming.
So I ended up sitting in this random bus shelter before a Leven Valley bus ended up coming.
Dixie wasn't pleased.
She let her rage out on the people and old biddies on the bus by playing the loudest and heaviest Metallica songs she could find on Lisa on full blast.
When I got to college, I was still too fucking early for Media Studies, so I sat about playing Solitaire. I drank my entire bottle of water in RAGE.
Media Studies also, was seemingly pointless.
It was a recap lesson of everything I'm never going to fucking forget because of my photographic memory - and because it's been RECAPPED so many times before, it's fucking ENGRAVED on the inside of my eyelids.
Sarah did get me thinking about my coursework though. I'm looking forward to the fact I have to make two films this year, and I'll never have a camera out of my hands due to A2 Photography.
At the lunch break, I walked into town with Lewis.
I bought a Greedy Joe's epic sandwich. I wasn't actually going to eat because I wasn't very hungry, but I ate out of rage. Grrrrrrrrr...
Then we went over to Gamestation to see if they sold N64 games. They don't, because they're pricks. So we went to Chips instead. They do sell them, but they have a really small selection. There was only one that caught my eye - which was Turok. I ended up buying the Little Britain game for PS2 instead. It looks mildly amusing.
If grandad gives me any more pocket money this week, I'll re-consider Turok, and maybe look into the others. Sometimes shitty-sounding games turn out okay.
We went back to college for our last lessons. I had Photography.
We started this shitty little mini-projecs about icons.
I ended up taking some really random but reaonable compositons made from piles of almost-carefully arranged metal objects I found lying about the art rooms.
Easel clips, compasses, paint brushers, stanley knives, cans of spray paint, cans of board cleaner, mirrors, metal rulers and paper clips.
When I was mooching, I found this piece of hardened modelling clay. It was a little dude that Ash had had on the desk beside her to use as a reference when she was painting one of her final pieces. It made me feel proper sad and nostalgic like.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAL. :)
Shelly woke me up this morning - and little did I know that for the entire time, my newly-delivered Guitar Hero: Greatest Hits was sitting in a jiffy bag on the doormat.
I'd went downstairs to check something, and I noticed the beasty package sitting there.
Instead, I did squeal - scooped it up and ran back upstairs, squealing to Shelly that it had arrived.
She's jealous - finally, a GH game that she doesn't have yet. :D
So, I've re-made my band logo and my four custom characters - TDW: Ashley Darwin (guitarist), Dean Hornet (bassist), Laurel Salt (vocalist) and Dudley Boone (drummer).
They look quite similar to the ones I made on World Tour - with some slight differences.
Oh, but Greatest Hits is absolutley legendary. :)
It's not easy either - some songs are quite a challenge.
But thanks to the re-designed vocals system - I CAN GET 100% ON EXPERT VOCALS. :D
I've also discovered some amazing songs that I HAVE IN MY iTUNES, but haven't really listened to. I just downloaded them to complete my GH collection.
I've got something to get addicted to now... Tee hee hee!

Resident Evil Restart
I'm still not going to my nana's on Sundays.
This is the third week that I've refused to go.
I do feel bad about my grandad though - he hasn't done anything wrong, he doesn't even know what's going on. So it's not really fair on him.
So instead of a Sunday lunch, I ate a Pot Noodle instead.
I decided to start Resident Evil 4 again.
I got to where my old save was 4 hours faster.
I also got there with a shitload more money and a few more guns.
I decided to follow the treasure maps - and that landed me with a few hundred thousand pesetas and a FREE BROKEN BUTTERFLY. :)
I'd totally bypassed an area of the castle, thinking it was too much of a chew on to get to once I'd saved Ashley - but I wandered back, did the duo-command and broke in - found a few treasure chests... One of them reveals me a nice shiny magnum.
I was just like WOW... WANT...
I've also managed to reduce my number of deaths by about 28.
Knowing when the dodgy traps occur, and how to prevent them - I saved myself from several gory cutscenes of Leon being impaled on various objects.

New Addiction!
I sometimes say that there's no point in me going into college some days.
Well today, there REALLY wasn't.
I did originally plan to do some work on my sketchbook before my Media Studies lesson - but naturally, I couldn't be arsed.
I played a few rounds of Solitaire - then got REALLY bored, so I wandered into town.
Nana had won some money on the Irish lottery - so she gave me £10.
This, along with the money I didn't spend when I took the day off last Tuesday - I went into CEX.
I did originally plan to buy Resident Evil 4 - but they only had the Wii version, and I was a few quid short.
Then I thought I'd get Manhunt 2 - but I don't look 18. I doubt they'd have asked me for ID or anything, but I are not the risky sort.
Then my eyes fell upon Bully: Scholarship Edition.
A game I've always wanted, but never really thought about.
So I bought it. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I went back to college EXACTLY on time for lesson - only to find it wasn't even on.
The only lesson I had wasn't even on.
Lewis was frustrated too - and he didn't want to even wait around a few more minutes to see if Sarah did turn up. So I walked him to the bus station. I went to Home Bargains and Greedy Joe's - picked up my lunch to take back with me.
Once back - I nommed on my chosen purchases, turned on my NEW PLAYLIST and did 3 hours solid work on my sketchbook.
I was starting to get really stressed out with it, see.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't originally plan to play Bully, as I still have lots of unfinished games without starting another one.
But I thought I would.
Jeez, was it a good decision to play it. :)
IT'S FUCKING LEGENDARY.
There's shitloads of controls to learn - so many different moves you can pull off. Tons of people to interact with - all of whom blurt out RANDOM SHIT when you go past them or interact with them.
"You're gonna be pissin' blood!"
"I think Ashley likes me... Does she wanna be my girlfriend?!"
"My butt itches..."
"Wanker! WANKER!!!"
"Eww! Like, who's boyfriend is THAT?"
Alright, I admit it's quite cheesy and American - but it has its moments of hilarity. The fact it's overly violent and contains shitloads of swearing pulls me away from the cringe factor. :)
Some parts are quite challenging too.
Oh, and I reckon it's gonna take me FOREVER to complete it.
To put it into perspective - I played it for 4 hours and I got 5.67%!
It's a game with a SHITLOAD to collect... I be going for 100%... Yes I am. :)
My favourite part so far has got to be using the Wii remote to dissect animals in Biology class - especially pulling out rat's testes with tweezers. :D
Basically the same game as before, except this time I'm doing quotes from movies! Not ridiculously obscure ones, but not incredibly easy either. =)
Tell me what movie the quote comes from, and bonus points if you can tell me who said it!! :D
1) "An avalanche is comin', and I do not feel prepared..." (chitundu)
2) "What kinda shit-hole planet is this?!" (crazysideeffect)
3) "With this candle, I will set your mother on fire." (crazysideeffect)
4) "And all the hens left in a clucking flurry."
5) "I'm giving very serious thought to eating your wife." (crazysideeffect, ingenue)
6) "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams." (magician, crazysideeffect)
7) "I've got a jar of dirt, I've got a jar of dirt..." (magician, ingenue)
8) "It's not magical!! It's just shiny!!!"
9) "Cute and cuddly, boys. Cute and cuddly." (amarobro)
10) "I've been vandalized!...by Elvis!!" (chitundu)
Good luck!! ^_^
