Half Way

Its the 19th and ive done 2 of my exams!! only 2 to go... Ive played 60 hours now of FFX. Im up to going inside Sin after he crashes on Bevelle. I know what your thinnking and yes, its a hell of a long time to be only up to there. BUT in my defence i have been catching fiends, getting sigils and PLAYING BLITZBALL! its such a good minigame. My teams on level 13 and all my guys are on like level 35 up. im trying to learn all the techs.. anyway off topic. i went out last night with a mate. started off at a pub then went into town. It was such a good night except there was the 2 foulest strippers ever. entertaining , yes. hot, not a chance. so with exception to the strippers and the mad headache i had thismorn, it was agreat night.

Subconscious

Its the 11th and ive played 46 hours of FFX. Im up to the showdown with Sin, have been for quite a while. I havent wanted to fight him yet as i am too busy doing all the little mini quests. It is whilst fumbling through these sidequests that i found myself subconsciously playing... Honestly, I woke up after playing an hour or so and i was still doing just fine. Maybe this is because all i was doing was capturing beasts. Run, run, run, attack, attack,and repeat. Its the formula that i have embedded into my neural motor system and it scares me. Am i less human? i dont know, maybe it just too much FF... if there is such a thing...
oh yeh, exams are in 4 days for uni.. ive done two out four summarys lol

Addictive

It is the 7th, 3 days of playing and integrating uni study... So far i have dedicated 28 hours to Yunas pilgrimage and 2 or so to my own.. Its not looking good for chem, phys or anatomy :( This means i am currently doing about 9 hours per day of gaming and 45 minutes of learning quantum chemistry, a finer balance i havent heard of. 28 hours in, I am just past the Calm Lands and using all characters, which drains up time giving them all exp in battles. It is very addictive and once i start playing, even if i set a time to go study, it just never happens. Well, lets see how i go. Exams are in 7 days.

Starting

I started playing again in order to defeat Penance. It so happens that unfortunately my uni exams are taking place in 2 weeks. I started on the 4th of June. Good luck uni study, you are lowest priority :p
