So holy crap, I'm turning 18 on the fourteenth and I could literally piss myself with excitement. (Okay, maybe not literally, but I am pretty damn excited.) It crept up on me REALLY FAST this year so I haven't had time to think about what I want...I mean, I already have a cell phone and an iPod. My did is getting me a laptop for graduation (MAY 26th!!!) but I'm assuming that also counts as a birthday present. Should I ask for games? Should I just go out and buy porn or something?!

Oh, the thought did cross my mind of going and buying cigarettes and then giving them to some homeless person at random, just to prove to the cashier that I am INDEED of legal age...XD. Yeah, I'm cool like that.

So anyways...a lot has been going on in my life. I'm getting super high grades in school (4.0!) and my job at Gamestop is going pretty well. I keep looking at that novel I was writing last summer and keep thinking that I should start writing some more. The peeps from work are trying to get me to Roleplay with them...Exalted? Seems interesting. I've been playing Suikoden on my DS and acting a lot like a senior with my half-hearted attempts at homework and frequent drives around town for no good reason. I have a lot planned this summer, with trips to the beach and Florida with my friends, UMBC Orientation in late June and who knows what else! So yeah, my life is crazy busy right now, so don't be offended if I am never on XBL or don't respond to your comments really quick, even though I think one person comments my stuff regularly...haha I ♥ all of you guys!

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

I am a slave to this game. I literally played online for the first time on Friday and got my ass blown to pieces. For some reason, I wanted to play it again. I knew I could do better! And so I played another match, and another, and another. My rank slowly went up, it's still really low but still...

My kills/deaths ratio is getting closer and closer to being POSITIVE! Hahaha. It started out around maybe 2 and 20? Something terrible...and every time I play, it seems to be just a liiiiittle bit better. :P

Now, by no means am I good at this game. I feel bad for the people on my team since I am usually the person with the second-to-worst score out of the bunch. But still, all I want to do right now is play and get better. I'm at school right now and all I can think about is going home and shooting people. XD

Anyone wanna be my XBL friend and we can shootpeople together? :twisted:

It is finally above freezing today in Maryland, and I am freaking out. The weather is sooo nice and I'm tempted to get off the computer and go outside.

**Or I'll just take my laptop out to the porch...yeah...that sounds like a plan...**

-peace-

So, now that I have a job at Gamestop, I've got all the insider info. It's pretty sweet and I love helping people out with questions that they have. Having access to games so that I can recommend them to customers is an awesome feeling and the job is pretty rewarding. Although we have to wear overly-primped clothes and tuck in our shirts, our store is still pretty laid-back and customers are almost always leaving with a smile. It hurts to tell people that they are only going to get like $5.00 for their 10 sports games from like 2004 but I guess that's just how the world works. People should contact me if they have questions on the industry or when games are finally street-dated.

Dude...plus we get any of the freebies left over from reserves if we get more freebies than games. The Rayman Raving Rabbids hat was preeeeetty sweet. Haha.

Later!

So I think it's pretty crappy that as a new, non-paying member i can't review games on the site. I mean, I'm putting the review out there to help people, but GAMESPOT wants me to pay to give people my opinion. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to work extra hard to get to Level 3...however you do that...
