5 things I hate about me

So I got tagged a few days back so here will be the five facts about me that I probably haven't divulged here before. I don't hate them just trying to be clever in attempting a play on words.

1.) For almost my entire freshman and sophomore year in college world of warcraft (WoW) ran my life. Also in my sophomore and junior year in high school I was addicted to socom and its first sequel.

2.) I was an admin for MLG for a few years

3.) I have had this account for almost four years, but hardly used it because I liked the gameFAQs portion more. I'm starting to stray away from that side though and use gamespot more. My account is a level 36 on GameFAQs and has almost 2300 karma.

4.) I'm a junior at Bryant University, located in Rhode Island. I'm currently majoring in Finance with a double minor to support it. I'm pretty smart when I'm not preoccupied with my video game obsessions. I had an 82 average during WoW, and since I have improved it to a 93.

5.) Hmm scrounging for something to say. I'm very conscientious of how others perceive me.

I think most people have been tagged by now so I'll just leave it alone.

Also in other news I saw the movie 21 yesterday. I thought it was pretty good and should have a review on it for movietome in a few.

Halo maps for free

The Halo 3 maps that were released a few months ago are finally free. I haven't played them yet, but I'm sure I will soon. I recently began playing Halo again so this fits in well. One of my roomates just purchased a live account so we have been playing some together.

It is almost the weekend and I have some movies to watch and some games to play. Along with some studying to do :(. Have a good weekend!

New rank, march madness, and easter

Happy Easter weekend everyone and if you aren't catholic, goooo march madness. The tourney has been pretty good this year in my opinion and my brackett is already decently screwed up unforunately. I'm home for the weekend so I won't really be gaming other than some brawl maybe.

I also ranked up today to level 12 wahooo. Have a good weekend!

Let the fun end.

Spring break was officially over with my first day of classes of the week today. How fast time flies when you don't have to do work. I played a little bit of brawl with my brother and was real impressed with it. Also played a lot of mlb 08 the show. Im addicted to the "road to the show" part where you create your own character and try to work him up to the big leagues, then retire, and hopefully get inducted into the hall of fame. I signed with the mets to a AA contract, hit .310 with twelve dingers and about fifty rbi's. Not too shabby, I'm playing the position of first base. I had originally signed with the mets but they traded me away to the Oakland Athletics halfway through the season. However, I had only signed a one year contract so I was able to resign with the mets the following season, which is the season I'm currently on. I was promoted to the AAA bench which is great, but also a bummer cause I don't play that much being on the bench most of the time, but someone just got hurt so that could be a good thing.

Anyways, I feel like I'm still a video game failure for not finishing Assassins Creed yet. I only have one more of the nine to kill. Figure it wouldn't be that hard to pop the game back in, but it is. Also I signed up for one of the NCAA march madness brackets on here. Here it is Brackett

Have a good one everyone!

PS3 Scared me.

PS3 gave me quite a scare today and yesterday. I brought it home from school because I figured I would play it a bit since i just purchased The Show 08 yesterday. Anyways I hooked it up and the thing wasn't working! Nothing was showing on my tv at all. The machine turned on, the light was green, it was making some noise, but nothing, no sound or video. Well it turned out that I had to set my PS3 Settings back to 480i (YRW) or no sound or picture would show up because I had the settings up for 1080i at school. I did not know that the ps3 did that kind of thing. Should have read the manual. Anywho that is my story. Enjoy this very rainy weekend, and happy brawling for all you brawlers.

Spring Break (Finally)

Spring Break is finally here! This week was absolute chaos with papers and tests, why I haven't been around this week really. Not going anywhere for break unforunately :(. But it will be a great time to sleep and relax. Going to pick up "The Show" today or tomorrow and I should finish Assassins Creed hopefully over the next couple days.

Hope everyone's week is going well!

Bill, Movies, Reviews, and whatever else

So President Clinton came and went yesterday. It was really cool, I was able to get in the front row. (lots of waiting) I had never seen a president give a speech before in person before, it most certainly was memorable. He is a great public speaker, unlike the current president. Also without trying to get into politics, he brought up a lot of good points. I managed to get some pictures with him, and shook his hand. Real nice guy.

His secret security was intense too. Constantly scanning the crowd for threats and what not. I had take a lot of pictures of the event. I'd try to show them here, but apparently I'm awful at putting them in this blog.

Have a few papers to write for the event which sucks but it shouldn't be too difficult. I'm almost done with Assassins Creed. I think I'll write my first review on it once I do. Also going to see Vantage Point in an hour or two. I may write a review on that too. Finally, I purchased Guitar Hero 3 for xbox 360 yesterday. I got sucked in further :(.

Have a great weekend!

Bill Clinton is coming to my university!!

O_O, so the university announced today that former president of the U.S. of A and potentially the first, "first man" is coming on Thursday. He is speaking on behalf of his wife whom is running for president, and currently in second for the democratic party nomination, but that may change depending on how Ohio and Texas go. (they say she has the edge) Well anyways I am quite pumped to get the chance to hear the man talk, he was a great president bar the sex scandal. I'm not too sure how his wife would be if she won but eh. My university is kinda small, (3000 full time undergrad) so I think it is pretty awesome that he is stopping by. Definetly the most famous spokesman we've had come to date. Jack Welch, former CEO of GE is I guess the next.

+ Secret service in action ahahaha awesome.

This weekend sucked, I worked on my paper all weekend, and played virtually no video games. Assassins Creed does not want to be finished rawr.

lvl 10 and weekend

Wahoo, I think I hit level 10 yesterday or the day before, just been studying for an exam I had today in Operations Management so I haven't been on too much lately. I believe the test went pretty well. Once I finished it, it marked the start of my weekend. Have quite a bit of work to do, but I plan to beat Assasins Creed if not come pretty close!

Also have the dorm room to myself for a couple nights, saweet.

Another game conquered, & written contributions!

Yesterday afternoon I decided to play some more Super Mario Galaxy and a couple hours later, done! A short game overall in my opinion (yea I could go get all 120 stars, but no thanks) and I still want to rank super mario 64 ahead of it. Don't get me wrong it still is great and the wii mote is fantastic with it, idk i just did not like it as much as I thought I would. Now I really mean it when I say Assassins creed is my next game, not buying another until this one is all done, or march 4th/5th is here (baseball!)

Also in other news I contributed my first television show review on Tv.com. I did it on Digimon -_-, I used to like the show a lot when I was younger. I may continue to do more reviews in the future, we'll see if time is on my side.

Until next time!
