Hey Guys (and Gals!) Well it's been about a month (a little more really) than I've posted a blog on Gamespot... really posted in the forums, and just have been active period! Well a few things have changed here and there from now and then and so I thought I'd be back to check on all of you and maybe get back in touch... for how long who knows - hopefully longer than last time! :)

But anyways, in first news, school is finally over! And yes, my first year of high school (9th Grade) has finally come to a close and - don't mind me if you think my head is big but - I graduated with a 4.0 GPA the entire year which makes me quite happy! :) Added to that, my birthday was a little while back in May so now I'm happy and 15 - and looks like I"ll be getting ready to get driving soon! Well I won't be 16 for about a year but I don't mind the wait... they say that Asians are bad drivers so I hope it's not true. :|

As for Summer - so far it's going really good. It's too damn hot outside for one... about 95 Degrees everyday in SLC, and it's a pain but I'll live. Yet, I have to wake up early in the morning because I'm in my districts Youth Symphony - in which Orchstra and Band students from across our school district come together to practice and play for concerts in the public. Being used to 1st Chair Clarinet at school... I'm sitting at 2nd right now but I don't mind - I still have 1st music and heck, I don't practice as much as I used to! :P Even so, I'm starting to get a little tired in the mornings of being so early... but not only that, I also have work after school at that same elementary so I'm a little busy afterwards. After that, its just a nice day at home... usually I just plain fall asleep!

Oh and in others news... I'm guessing some of you will be really irritated by this (because there's bound to be some of you like it everywhere!) but Harry Potter VII is coming out in about a month and I'm getting excited all over again! :D :D :D Im re-reading the series again (Starting the third right now) actually for the many many times... I used to be a complete fanatic, but my interest dwinidled a little between the break of Movie IV until now - but it's starting to get exciting again! Well, at least finally I'll be finished with the Harry Potter series once and for all (I mean geez, I've read the first book 14 times already! :) )

As for video game news - well it's been a little bit shallow lately. As of now I've started playing Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and plan on passing my way through this one. I've completed the Story mode in Budokai Tenkaichi 2 for the Wii - and boy was it a great ride! I love Dragonball Z - in fact, I plan on buying the whole series on DVD when it hopefully... releases and is remastered (they only have two sagas right now!). And other than that, I picked up Baten Kaitos: Origins a few weeks ago and it's been good fun - in complete honesty, it doesn't capture me as much as the first one did (the battle system now feels a little too simple...) but it's still a great ride. Added to that, I went to my local Gamestop and was able to find two games I've never seen before that I HAD TO PICK UP! I was planning on getting Final Fantasty III, but they were out of stock. So then, I was able to see Sonic Rush and Phoenix Wright (No. 1) for a combined price of $30.00. SWEET! :D And as for them, well Sonic is pretty nifty and a fun game, but Phoenix Wright (for me) is an absolute blast, I'm enjoying it a ton!

And as for now - just sitting around posting this blog and hanging around online! 8) For the future... well I don't know... a few games are interesting me... I still plan on getting Super Paper Mario, Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil (I have to, it's such a great game), and Mario Strikers on the Wii for this summer hopefully... and I hope that by the end I'll finally have my GCN collection completed (unless I see a few games here and there...). All I'm really after really in Tomb Raider Legend, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0, Pikmin, and Pikmin 2. Then I can finally put it to rest.

But you know sadly enough...my Warrior Within data got erased the other day so I haven't been plyaing PoP at all lately. In fact, I have The Two Thrones still unopened in my game collection! Not only that, but I haven't even played Killer 7 either... pathetic ain't it? I really need to beat some of these games (I have about four games right now where I'm at the last level but I just won't pick them up and play! :| ). But anyways, it'll be good to get these games out of the way. But as for now, I have music to play, work to do - but it's the weekend and it's none for that so I hope to get some good gaming (and reading!) out of the way for what hopes to be a good time to relax. I'm going to go and try to post in a bunch of your blogs tonight! Sorry for inactivity! :P

-Nisha

Hi guys - sorry if I haven't been too active lately, let alone blogged.  But anyways, thought I'd visit you all with another little blog entry of my life. :)

So anyways, I'm sure some of you remember that my brother was going to buy a PS3.  Well he did about two weeks ago, along with Resistance, Elder Scrolls, and he rented Marvel, NHL, and Need for Speed.  Well as my complete honest answer: It wasn't half bad.  :) Well I didn't really enjoy NHL or Need for Speed, but Resistance I found rather interesting (although a little different than I expected but it was still pretty good) and Elder Scrolls looked fantastic, and played fantastic on our television screen!  Although there's one small problem here...

Two weeks after my brother buying a Playstation, he sold it. :( Spending aroundd $800.00 for layers of gaming goodness, and he sold it for a $450.00 return.  Hmm... in fact, I don't know what to say.  I'm not depressed and I'm honestly not regretting he did - well, it just turned out to be a waste of money (his friend owns a PS3, why didn't he play his?!?).  So yes, my brother says he'll buy it again later, but as for now there's no reason for him to have one... interesting.  Who knows - but it was nice getting back into the Sony feel again, although I'm sure you all know where my preferences lie. ^_^

 And so yeah now here I am... aching in PAIN! :( Yes it's been about four days with an annoying stomache that won't go away! I think I've come down with the flu or something... but today my brother went out and bought some CHERRY FLAVORED Pepto Bismol - which didn't taste half bad! :P Well much better thant he original but... I guess I'm feeling a little better.

In other news, I'm selling my broken Zune to iPodMods.com for about $60.00 - which isn't bad to me because then I'll have my brother's iPod completely paid off.  It's still kind of sad from time to time, but I'll live.  Added to that, tomorrow is going to be even busier since I have testing in English and Geometry.  Lemme tell ya, these TESTS ARE TOO EASY.  I mean, I honestly think I could've taken the Biology test without learning the material and I think I would've scored at least a B... -_- Lame...

Ok well I'm going to bed now guys.  And don't forget to try that new Pepto Bismol, it works and doesn't taste too bad. :) 

Hello hello guys.  I'm really sorry about my GameSpot absense lately... lets just say I got a little carried away with a few things here and there.  And to begin, here we start with my newfound hatred love and hatred for Microsoft!:

Chapter I: Microsoft I Love You - Now Give Me My Money Back:

 Ahh yes, so it all began.  Remember the old chronicles of my decision to purchase a Zune or an iPod?  Well guess, what?  I decided to buy a Microsoft Zune (in White)!  And you know what, I aboslutely loved it!  I know the differences on paper seem minor, but in person they were noticeable enough for me to choose one in person.  Oh wait... I loved it... lovED it!  Now why don't I love that little thing anymore?

THE DAMN THING BROKE!

Yes, after having the beautiful little Zune player for ONE FULL WEEK (Seven days for those of you that don't know... :) ) It broke!  How?  Well I'm hoping none of you will argue with me... but it IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT MICROSOFT WON'T YET RECOGNIZE!  Lets just say... there I was great day, the beaute worked fine and then I plugged it into my computer for a little charge - and then I come back to see a crack on the INSIDE of my screen!?!?  Why?  Well if you search the internet, I guess you can see that many Zune oweners experience the same problem.  Likely due to the battery being placed under the (gorgeous) 3'' LCD screen which heats up and under pressure will cause it crack... sad!  Well really its not the Zune I'm angry about, in fact, I still love my (broken Zune - actually it still plays music but I can't read the screen) - its just that Best Buy, OR Micrsofot will not refund my money.  Best Buy says that I did it.  Microsoft however, says they are sorry and that they have had these reports come in and are researching this problem.  If I'm lucky maybe their warranty will change soon so I can get a refun (because that is what they are trying to do...  I mean... $267.00 (including tax!)... out of Mommy's pocket. :( But anyways, I do have some good news...

 I bought an iPod!

Yup, my brother found out for my loss - so I bought his (in like new condition) iPod Video (black) for only $150.00!  Now I know it sounds like alot, he included his sexy Sony headphones (with a great Bass response that cost him $45.00) and his leather case (which cost $70.00!) so I found it to be a good deal.  It in fact works just the way my Zune does - everything works dandy and fine. The only difference is... I still prefer my Zune and it saddens me sometimes becuase I still miss it... but I can't complain.  In fact, I can make an offer to iPodMods.com to see what they would purchase it for but I probably won't get much... and it will cost a bit to fix it.  Who know, a second Zune may come out later this year and maybe I'll purchase that one.  I mean, heck, I want an MP3 that is purely mine - brand new.  That's what my Zune was - this iPod, wasn't.  I still love them both but it's not the same.  Maybe I have an obsessive compulsive problem here... but anyways, I still have $110.00 to pay my brother back for (which yeah I guess making payments isn't bad), so there it is there.

  Chapter II: And All The Rest

Ok so after that long and annoying (to you anyways) vent about MP3 players, I guess now I just have... well, what else is going on in my life.  Well Track season has begun, but I have problems with my legs due to strss (growing pains) but my doctor reccomends that I don't run which is exactly what I'm doing... I have work after school, but the pain from NOT running still tears at me every day. :(  

As for school, I'm in the last term of my 9th grade year.  I passed so far with Flying Colors (Or Flying A's) with no Minuses in sight and I aced all of my tests (I got a 42/43 in Biology on my test - I MIXED UP ADHESION WITH COHESION! :cry: ) But yes, and now it's midterms.  And you know, now I can finally feel like summer is coming and I can't wait.  Just being with my friends, camping, vacation, and being with that special someone :wink: to enjoy my days...

And yes as for work - its all good.  Just a typical 8 Hour workweek - not bad for a 14 year old (Yes I know young and sad, but my birthday is in one month okay?!??).  But once summer comes, I'll be able to work around 30 Hours a week, fun.  Well, added to that, I'm doing a Band Camp (Haha please no American Pie references please...) and maybe a symphony... but that will take about 3.5 Hours of Clarinet rehearsels every weekday, so probably just one instead of both.

And as for video games - well there's nothing new.  I haven't really played many of them lately, nor have I purchased any.  I'm hoping to get my first set of Wii Points sometime soon.... well, it probably won't be until about the 15th of May at least, but it's okay.  I'm still looking at Final Fantasy III and Super Paper Mario.  And oh yes, My brother is buying a Playstation 3 tomorrow! I'm rather excited, though not too much.  I mean, he's only purchasing Resistance and COD III (Which I already have for Wii) and shooters aren't my favorite - but it should be interesitng.  At least the game will look good, but not the best.... our television only outputs 1080i at the best, so almost there. :)  He's moving out in a month though so I guess the fun won't last long.  But even if wasn't moving out, would the fun last long still?  Who knows, I'll try it out for myself. 

Chapter III: The End

So here ends my long saga of three long weeks. Fun.  A crazy battle with MP3 Players, no games, and a little fun at school and home (Yes I'm going to do my homework now.)  Oh and can I make a reccomendation to you?

Try out a Zune - you may like it - but don't buy it from Best Buy, at least Wal-Mart will give you your money back.  And besides, not every Zune is fault.  Just give it a shot if you're deciding between a Zune and an iPod, you may like the Zune better.  Just an afterthought - I wished mine wasn't broken...

Well I haven't posted a blog here in a while so I guess now is a good time to start. Its 12:16 here in Salt Lake City... and I didn't go to school today. My family is awaiting an important package from FedEx, but it hasn't come yet! :cry: Today was also the start of the fourth, and final term for my freshman year. Day One and I'm absent! :( I don't know, there won't be much work to be done, but I'm still pretty worried that I missed something big... but then again, I know well enough that my Geography class is having a party (of Guitar Hero and DDR!) so at least I don't have to worry there! :)

Added to that, I'm really tired today... Nisha (yay!) barked a lot last night (she had to use the facilities) so I only got about three and a half hours of sleep... but why should I complain, I know a lot of you out there get just as little sometimes huh? :)

Again, I got another 4.0 GPA and a 4.0 CPA for the third term at school! Yay! Just don't shoot me.... :|

And yes, as of now I still plan on picking up that iPod... anytime soon... hopefully by this weekend... when that package from FedEx arrives! It would be nice to listen to some music while I do some clearning at work you know...

Oh yes, and I've been playing some SSX Blur lately, and I enjoy it very much. It actually has a bigger learning curve than I expected, but now that that's done and over with, its easy as pie and a great ride. :) It sits somewhere between my 4th and 2nd favorite Wii games... (Trauma Center was awesome, and I'm loving Budokai Tenkaichi 2 more and more everyday... I've had these games since 2006!).

Well there's just a quick update of what's going on in my life. Nothings really changed. And while I was doing my research, I came across the Meizu M8 Phone. It looks VERY VERY similar to the iPhone... don't you think? Only... I don't know... I guess a much cheaper price point, a better camera, and some other feautres may win me over one of these days... but then again, I've always felt I could rely on Apple...

Just a question on opinion I'm hoping some of you can answer for me.  See, my mom plans on purchasing me an iPod soon (for grades) but I'm not sure whether or not I want a Microsoft Zune or an iPod...  I just put Windows Vista on my computer and I'm starting to get drawn into this whole Windows-esque design.   However, I know the iPod works well - I still use iTunes, and I'm familiar with it to know what I would get.  But whats so special about the Zune?  Is there anything that has a significant advantage over the other?  Just wondering. :oops:

Oh yes, and I couldn't find any Wii Points at a visit to the game store, so I decided to purchase Brain Age instead.  What a great game! :D  And my first Brain Age was 35.  I feel old...

Just wondering... :P

Well anyways, I guess I haven't blogged in a bit of awhile so I thought it'd be time to post a new blog here on Gamespot. So my life so far has been pretty standard I guess. I'm just spending a lot of time with my friends tomorrow and Sunday, so it should be good. :) But yeah, and chances are I may pick up some gaming material soon... some Wii Points, SSX Blur, a VC Controller, a DS game, or an SD Card - not sure, depends on how much I have on hand I guess. And oh yes, I'm still enjoying Elite Beat Agents very much! :D One of the best purchases I've made! I'll hopefully write a review sometime soon... but I guess I should get to writing that Fire Emblem review eh?

And yeah everything else... well its allright. Or I don't know - you know, for the first time, I haven't been wanting to go to school lately and I don't know why. Maybe its because the girl I like goes to a different school... couldn't be. And I have no problems with anyone at my school either... hmm...
You know... I think its probably because I just want to leave 9th grade altogther. :| Work is so easy, so standard - I don't really enjoy it... not being much of a challenge. Do you think I"m getting a head of myself? Do you think I'm rushing into 10th grade? Well I don't know, registration for 10th grade is next Tuesday, and I already have my sophomore year just about planned out...

Well anyways... remember that dreaded science fair project that I was working on? Well, luckily after some hard work, it paid off because I took 2nd place overall in 9th grade Yay! And I got 1st place in the Physical category. :) Well looks like I'll be sitting for 6 hours at the district fair like last year, how fun. :wink: Oh well, I get out of school - who cares! Well goodnight everybody!

So what ARE you favorite songs? :)

Hey there guys hows it going?  Well things for me are going well. I'm just doing some planning for my 10th grade year, and doing a bit of studying for mid-term exams.  And just so you know, I bought Elite Beat Agents.  I LOVE IT! :D Well anyways, for all of you out there... would you want to give me your Wii number?  Well for anyone who cares, here's mine:

4480-0230-8902-4595

So there you have it! Add me and gimme your code and I'll add you on there. Thanks! :D 

P.S. I wonder if I should've posted this blog a few months ago... oh well! :D 
P.S.S. I plan to get SSX Blur the weekend after it releases.  Sound good?

Oh do I miss being a itty wittle fighter! :D :P

Ok well anyways that came from me browsing through my old school stuff when I found that little guy - me! :D Yay!  Ok well anways, just posting a new blog I guess, since the shallowness of my last blog reall didn't say much... this one sure shows it! :P

So yes, in other words... there honestly hasn't been much going on in my life.  I might get a new game this weekend... a DS title or one for the Cube, but I'm not saying anything... do you guys' care? :| :D

Oh yes, Valentines day is coming up! Isn't that something!  Well... I guess getting a little stuffed puppy named Charlie for a special someone means something, doesn't it? :oops: :D Its on Wednesday and that should be interesting shouldn't it?  Love is in the air! Maybe I'll sing... Ok no... sorry for the randomness tonight... its uhh... I don't know... oh well... Love is in the air! :D

Hello there friends how's life! :) Well for me its allright I guess - nothing too much new, just want to post a new blog here and there and catch up with some more people. :wink:

Well anyways I bet you can guess by the title.  I'm sure the first word in my blog title will either make you curious, annoyed, angry, or flat out careless about this blog but either way I guess I'll make a page.  Well, I was just wondering if anyone out there wants to me by friend on MySpace! :D Ok no, not ANYONE!  Anyone on Gamespot here of course... but if you do, make sure you Message me there before you add me.  I just made a new MySpace after deleting mine about a month ago... a sad little tale... ok not really, but...

'Twas a regular old Friday night - just peaceful and full of relaxation - fun, fun, fun!  Well just logging onto MySpace as part of my daily routine and talking to some people here and there... well I guess my older brother thought it would be a little funny to hack into my MySpace account and completely change everything... not very... goodly?!? :?
Ok well anyways, I guess writing (I hope I don't offend anyone) g@y message rants, or posting some p0rn on Myspace seemed to be rather funny...
Well ... some of you may say "Change your password".  Or anything along those lines - oh well, doesn't work.  Dirty little hacker! :evil: Well anyways, I was fed up with it... I haven't been talking to anyone back then for awhile, so I deleted my account!... :shock: !

So one month later I'm sitting here lonely im my little bedroom wondering what my some of my MySpace buddies are up too... so I decided to redo an account.  Again, go ahead and add me if you want but I would prefer a PM of some type to remind me who you are! No stalkers! :evil:

So yes, there's my little story.  I guess its back to homework... oh wait, it's past my bedtime! :o Ok I don't have one but you know what I mean... well its another busy day tomorrow.  THIS WEEK IS NOT GOING BY FAST ENOUGH!  Well hopefully it will soon - goodnight everyone! :)

P.S. And for all of you who actually want some gaming news, turns out I haven't played my Wii since about Sunday... and those were GCN games.  No, I sitll WANT to play my Wii games, but as of now, I'm trying to GCN as much as I can before its all dead and gone! :cry: When I get paid next week on the 15th, I'll have about $40 - $60 so I was thinking of either getting a VC Controller and Wii Points, or just some GCN games... I'll probably go with the latter... or a DS game... sorry Wii games, you guys will have to wait. :oops:  Well I'll post a wishlist after then to see your opinions on it guys, that'd be nice. :) Well goodnight! (For real this time!)

Ok well the weekend is almost over and as of right now, I'm just about finishing on that science project for my Biology class. Well anyways, a few interesting things happened this weekend.

Well first of all was a little story that happened at work. See, we work about two hours every other day but usually finish our job in about an hour and half - well I guess in the other half hour we do pretty crazy things such have garbage can races (I work as a janitor at an elementary if you don't know) and chill in the teachers room and eat Cheez-Its! and pretzels! Oh yeah, and have crazy little fights and have messes everywhere. Well anyways, I guess when you get caught by the principal you get told to stop and get told on to your boss! :P Oh yes, and I've been bringing one of my friends to work with me and hiding him when authority prowls around the corner - just for a little fun, but she didn't approve either cause she caught him with me! I wasn't even supposed to go in that day either! :) So we basically got a little lecture and a warning from my rather... ok not rather, very stupid boss who doesn't know what he's doing. Kind of interesting, but no more garbage can races! :cry: Or cheez-its! :cry: Oh well - work is too easy anyways - and I guess its easy money. :)

Oh and secondly - I have two retainers - a bottom and a top one of course. Well I don't wear them until night time and I guess the bottom one fell off of my desk once and Nisha kinda chewed it up! :oops: My parents don't know its completely ruined and deformed so I won't tell em! :D I don't want to pay $600.00 either! :P

Other than that - I guess yesterday was allright. My friends and I took the bus downtown to Salt Lake City at the GateWay Mall (its outdoors! :) ) and had a good time. We poured some lemonade on my friend's seat when he left to go get a refill (from Subway! :) ) and when he sat down I guess he had a little accident! :) Maybe he needed a tampon! :oops: :o Ok well anyways, I guess yesterday was just a crazy easy day...

But for today, its the SUPERBOWL!!! GO BEARS! :D And we're having our late Thanksgiving dinner today! (My dad worked on Thanksgiving! :( ).

And by the way guys, what game should I review next? I haven't written one of those in about four months and I wonder what game I should... I was thinking along the lines of:
- Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
- Metroid Prime Hunters
- Wii Sports

Allright well thanks guys - I'll catch you all later. :)
