Why I'm Voting for Obama (Instead of McCain as I had once intended to)

Normally I try to leave politics out of blogging just because of drama potential. However, McCain's VP pick just cinched it. I am voting for Obama. Sure Biden has his flaws but its better than McCain's apparent belief that if I'm a woman I will vote for a woman. WTF is that? For one thing, he's being a hypocrite about Obama's inexperience because Palin is even more inexperienced and untried. For another thing, she's sueing over polar bears listed as an endangered species (note: oil company supporter? X_X).

I don't know about you but this freak weather and all the crap we're putting into the air and the earth is bad enough without oil companies getting even worse. So I'm frankly insulted if McCain thinks he'll get female voters just because the VP pick is female. I had my problems with Clinton but at least she proved herself.

Although I wasn't very happy about how the democrats were running their elections and Obama's somewhat vague statement about making a change and was on the verge of going for McCain despite me leaning towards the liberal side, McCain's pick convinced me to vote Obama.

Harvest Moon Wii




Ok I lied, Vesperia is not the game I most want to see... why? Because I know I can never have it so while I would very much like to see it and play it, its not something I await sleepless nights for since theres no point. What I'm really waiting for is Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility for wii because I've seen the pics and they look awesome. The screenshots I've seen so far look very promising for many many hours of play ^_^.



I'm curious about how much the wiimote will add or subtract from the fun factor. While it would be fun to use the wiimote to till soil, water plants, and do other chores, the same motions can be boring and tedious after a while.

Then again, I want to be able to see those cows up front! The graphics are definitely a big upgrade from I am used to since I've been playing HMDS and HMDS Cute for months now.



I dunno about you but this is definitely a step up visually compared to the DS games I've been playing while waiting for this to be released. Since I had to choose between this and Island of Happiness I really really hope The wii game will deliver what it promises.

On another note, I can't wait for my plushy! Preordered months ago so hopefully when the game releases I can get a plush.









Oooo I'm alive?

*pats self* OMG! I'm alive!!! So after many brain devouring midterms and finals I realized that I somehow managed to crawl out of the pit of insanity that is called south campus because I no longer give a f*** about passing hahahahaaaa. Its summer and I'm going to enjoy it dammit! So without further ado, here's my todo listXD

1. Get to level 25 in Fiesta as Yuhara
2. Finish replay of Tales of Symphonia so I can look forward to Tales of Symphonia 2 and knowing the story.
3. Get to level 30 in Wonderland Online as Yuhara
4. Somehow get to Alvin's house (why do you have to live so far from the freakin bus stop!?!?) and see Vesperia (the prettiness!!! @_@ shiny! X_X I wish I can afford more game consoles)
5. Finish all current chapters of whatever I'm writing so I don't feel guilting about drabbling when there are half written chapters sitting in my harddrive.
