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

ok... at basketball practice today Holly was'nt there so Shannon dicided to go easy on us (we got to go at 4:30 instead of 5:00) Anyway, I went into call my dad to tell him he had to pick me up early and I couldn't get a hold of him.  I called my mom to tell her and she said that it was'nt her problem (she's been a pain in the butt laitly).  She wasn't going to pick me up so i would have to wait outside for half an hour (we've been having record breaking cold weather).  So she starts yelling at me for no reason and I hung up (as it turns out, my dad was out drinking with his girlfriend).  I went back out to practice and got a ton of crap from the other girls (our team's full of a bunch of braty preps).  I was playing point guard while we were practicing this one play and they woudn't listen to me at all.  I passed the ball to one of them and they were supposed to pass back to me after I got under the basket.  She didn't and passed it to one of her friends to try to get me mad.  It didn't get me mad and I told her that that wasn't the point of basketball but she gave me that stupid old talk to the hand thing and the rest of the preps gave me crap the rest of the day.  It only made me more detirmaned to make all of the points that practice because by that point I was ready to throtal not only my parents but every freaking person on my team!! I just won't help them in math on monday... but ohhhhhh it erks me!!!!!

     Today was the start of a new semester...yay! Well, I love first hour--Drawing II. Gee what a coinkidink! lol. Most of my other classes suck though because either there's no one I'm friends with at all in there, or I'm stuck with a whole bunch of ditzy (girls), loud, and annoying preps....so that really sucks. Even in 6th hour, which is a class I'm really going to like within the next few weeks or so ;) . Oh well, I'll get through.

     I think I might be starting to like someone now, too. I've thought he was cute since Driver's Ed last May, and from then on. I thought he would be mean, but he's far from it. He's in my drawing II class, and proctors in my 6th hour. I'll have to get to know him and see what happens next. It's kind of a weird feeling..to like someone again. Yeah, I liked Eric for a few weeks at the beginning of the school year, but it's not the same. Maybe I'll actually have a chance with this guy. I won't let myself fall as hard as I did with Alan (unless we get to a relationship level), because honestly--I just got over Alan months ago and it took way too long to get over him...I don't want to fall that hard again unless I know for sure something could possibly come out of this. I kind of feel bad though because one of my friends (I just met her this year, though), likes him a lot, and he doesn't like her that way.......I don't know what to do--if I should continue falling a little more, or not. I don't want to hurt her....I'll just have to wait and see what goes on with that. Hm...that could be a problem though.....

     I'm still not back to my giggly old self, but I'm in the process of getting back there. I'm completly fine when I'm at school, it's basically just at home when I feel really low. Oh well.....I'm working on it.

     G'nite all. Hope you had a great day!!!!!!!!
