I have completed my Focus... Eternal life awaits...

Now most of you who know me are aware of the fact that I've beaten The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 37 times (Yes I've kept count).  In my opinion, that is by far the best game I've ever played in my entire life.  But I just came across a game that is a pretty damn close 2nd.

I've always wanted to get into the who Final Fantasy franchise but I never really acted on it.  I never bought a game or really played one for an extended period of time.  But recently I was running out of games to play and decided that I would go out and buy Final Fantasy 13 for my XBOX 360.  I knew it was going to be different than any other RPG I've played before because it was turn based and whatnot.  I had heard read some really good reviews online and a lot of my friends told me that it was an amazing game.

Upon plopping the disk into my console and playing for several hours I began to realize how linear this game was, which was surprising because I had heard about the earlier games being different.  It was as if I was walking through an extremely straight tunnel...  but that tunnel was the most beautiful tunnel I have EVER walked through.

The storyline in this game was so amazing.  The cutscenes were scripted so well that I was extremely captivated by the whole thing, especially the ending... it was pretty emotional... not gonna lie.  Not to mention that Lightning is pretty fucking badass and I sure as shit would not want to fuck with Fang.  Sorry people but I'd like to have kids one day.  Also... did anyone else get the feeling that Vanille was kind of slutty?  I mean the way she walked just looked like she was a crack whore looking for some druggie to fuck.  And Hope with his annoying cliche motivational speeches... that got kind of annoying as well.  But hey they pulled it off extremely well.  Kudos to the crew who worked on this game... you all did an amazing job.

Now as I said before The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is my #1 game of all time (Let's call it a 10/10).  But this game comes as close as you can get to that game.  If I had to put a number on it, then it would be a 9.999999999999999999999999999... (you get it) out of 10.  If you haven't bought this game yet I suggest you go do it.  I guarantee you it won't disappoint.

Well kids, it's time for me to go farm.  All that's left for me to do now that Orphan is dead is the go farm asstons of CP so I can max out my characters and farm Adamantoises and (Sha)Long Guis until my eyes bleed.  Gonna be farming for a while but at least my experiences with farming things repeatedly on World of Warcraft have prepared me to handle hours upon hours of mindnumblingly boring tasks.  Sigh...  I guess I just have to pretend that this is my new Focus and if I don't complete it I will turn into one of those ugly Cie'th.  I MUST COMPLETE MY FOCUS!!!

Peace out bitches.

Borgata > Bally's

So a bunch of coworkers and I decided to make a haphazard trip to Atlantic City yesterday after work.  After a lot of screaming and yelling we came down to two choices...

Bally's or the Borgata.

The choice is clear here, anyone with a brain would go to the Borgata over Bally's... but my coworkers have no brains.  Besides the fact that they have horribly lighted casino floors, terrible music and a ridiculously small amount of tables we had an okay time..... no wait, that fucking place sucked... Seriously I would have rather been punched in the nuts then to go there.

A few of us decided that we had enough of the place and took a drive over to the Borgata.  Walking into that place is like walking into the richest guy's house in Dubai.  I swear it is gorgeous... just like the waitresses.  Holy crap those are some of the most amazing looking women I have ever seen.

We played blackjack and roulette for a few hours before finally arriving home at 4:30 in the morning on Sunday (today).  Sure I only got 5 hours of sleep before work but I'm 22... I'M FULL OF LIFE AND ENERGY AND WONDERFUL ASPIRATIONS... RIGHT!?... RIGHT!?

All in all it was a fairly fun evening.  Was the first time I had gone out in a few weeks so it was a nice stress reliever/cathartic/whatever the hell you wanna call it.

Too bad I'm 200 bucks down though... gotta get that shit back somehow...

Maybe I can start selling my body... ANY TAKERS!? 22/M/NJ!! LIKES LONG WALKS ON THE BEACH, PUPPIES AND CUDDLING!!!

COME ON PEOPLE I GOTTA PAY FOR GRAD SCHOOL SOMEHOW!!!

Hard work finally pays off...

Well folks I finally did it.  I GRADUATED COLLEGE WITH HONORS!!!  It's about time ladies and gentlemen.

I am now the proud owner of a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice.  Thanks to everyone who supported me over the past few years!

My next mission?  Graduate school at Rutgers this fall.  Statistics and Biostatistics?  BRING IT ON!!

The Light of Dawn

After many trials and tribulations Exodus has defeated the final boss in Wrath of the Lich King.  Arthas has fallen and the scourge are finally under the control of someone who won't use them to rape and pillage Azeroth.

After many weeks and hundreds of wipes we are finally relieved to have beaten the expansion.  We would have enjoyed doing it much sooner but there was a bit of a learning curve with all the recruits in the raid, myself included.  I think we all did pretty good and congratulations to everyone for such a great kill!  It was by far one of the most difficult fights Blizzard has developed for this game, and also one of my favorites.  This fight actually requires me to pay attention pretty much 100% of the time instead of standing there for 2 minutes waiting for Cronion's stacks to reach 9 and then taunt or having to run around a room for 4 minutes kiting oozes that will rape me if they get near me... OR sitting around for about 5 minutes smacking Professor Putricide until it's my turn to taunt at sub 20%... ORRR standing still bitchslapping a queen while everyone runs around the room biting each other spreading AIDS like wildfire... I'll stop here... I'm sure you get the picture.

All in all it has been an utterly awesome three weeks in this guild so far and I'd just like to say I am having a great time.  I'd also like to thank all of you who have given me the opportunity to be part of such an amazing place to raid (Kay, can we fuck now? no homo).

Let's end with some pictures!

Got 99 problems but a Lich ain't one!



WHY DO THEY CALL THE MOUNT INVINCIBLE IF YOU CAN SEE IT!? I DUN GET IT CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN ME HOW IT WORK!?



Gratz Leibo on your new mount.  I better see you eat, breathe, shower, sleep, work and shit while riding that thing for the rest of your life!

I'd also like to mention something about the triumphant return of Kaywarrior... But since I'm in awe and at a complete loss of words I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...



Pretty fucking pro if you ask me...

Once again I'd like to thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to raid with the best of the best.  It surely is an amazing experience and I hope it lasts for quite a long time!

Oh yeah... now that I mention that... one more thing...
