Just thought I could wish everyone a Merry Christmas while its still Christmas day. Its has been a while since I posted something here, I always check here since this site my source of gaming news. For some reason, I can't find time like I used to post like this anymore, but I will keep trying in the near future! I hope every has had a good Christmas day and got everything they wanted. I know I got my PSP and some cash and with that cash I'm going to go to Gamestop first thing on Saturday and buy myself a 2 GB memory stick, Persona, and Dissidia. Oh I almost forgot to mention that I bought some headphones that were 50% off on Amazon that look really similar to the headphones that Minato Arisato wears in Persona 3. I'm really excited to try those on when I get them other than that, it's been a good Christmas eve and day for me. We had another party here for Christmas eve like usual and opened our presents at Midnight since that's we usually do it.

Well I hope every had a good Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Shadow.

Yeah that's right. Whoa~ Haha.

Well its been almost a year since I posted a Blog and here I am writing one. This is mostly going to consist of everything that has happened. So think of it as an update.

I guess I should start off to say that I'm an uncle of a one year old. He was born a year ago in August. He's pretty chubby for his age, but regardless he's still awesome. I hope that I will be a good uncle to him, but so far I don't think I am one since there really isn't anything to do with a one year that has just started walking other than making him smile and such. On another note, I am a Junior in High School this year! Just realized how quickly the four years of high school are going by for me. This year is already starting to be difficult, but that's my fault because I wanted to challenge myself some for once. I have seven classes which are Algebra II, Spanish IV, APUSH (AP US History), Music Apprecation, 3D Animation, English, and Chemistry. To start it off, I am already having some major difficulties with Chemistry. The tests and quizes in that class are really difficult for me. AP US History isn't really all that difficult homework wise, but its tests and essays are really where the challenge is at. 3D Animation is fun and interesting, but the projects are going to prove to be difficult. I'm already supposed to make a short flim! Haha.

As usual, I'm still a gamer! If I wasn't then I wouldn't be on GS now would I? Gaming is still going well and I'm still finding interesting games to be playing whether its on the DS and PS2, or its on the Xbox 360. Sadly, I still don't have a Wii or a PS3 because those cost money which I do have. Speaking about money, I have finally found a job! After I've been whining for a job around the house my mom has found me a job. Starting October 1st, I'll be working 4 nights a week from 6-8 PM for $600 a month. Although I don't get to keep all the money to myself. $400 is going in my savings for College and $200 is going to be for myself.

I can't really think of anything else to say here so I'll I shall leave for now and post whenever I have something worthy to post!

Later, Shadow.

Finally got some time to post a blog entry. Its been awhile since I have done this with school and everything. School has been rough on me since my grades are kind of dropping in some of my classes. The hardest class I have right now would have to be Geometry only because my teacher is asian and she doesn't know how to help people correctly with their problems. If I had any other teacher I would probably be doing a little better. Spanish has also got me working a lot also. So I've barely been surviving with homework and all.

So recently I've been playing Gears of War 2 and Left 4 Dead a lot. They are both very good games to play especially if you have friends to play with on Left 4 Dead which makes it even more fun when playing through the campaign or just playing versus against each other. 

 That's about all I can write at the moment since the internet is going out right now. I will be sure to edit this entry a bit more to see what else is new. 

What's new in my life? Well let's go down the list shall we?

1) Baby coming any day.

2) Got a new phone.

3) Brother moved back in.

4) Found out people who should have moved stayed

5) Been going to the doctors lately

6) School starts August 20th

Yeah that's what's new with my life. My sister is going to have her baby any day now and I'm going to be an uncle. The baby is a boy. So I guess I'm kind of excited for that except its the worst time to have a baby since I have school and such. Hopefully I can go to sleep without him crying in the middle of the night. I finally got a new phone and switched phone companies. I have AT&T and a Iphone. So far I like it. Its WAY better than Sprint. So its good to have a phone so I can call people up to hang out and all that stuff.

My brother moved back in with us becuase he was only renting the place he was living at and the owners of the house were going to move back in or something like that. So he's going to be staying back with us until he finds a new place to live. Its kind of like old times when we all use to live together as a family. I have found out that some people that I don't like have stayed and didn't move. One in particular lied about it and obviously wanted to get attention for it so I saw that coming from a mile away. As far as the others go hopefully they aren't stupid or do something to piss me off as they stay here for one more year before they move.

I've been going to the doctor's lately because I was having chest pain around my ribs and they said it was due to because I'm growing so I was glad to hear I didn't have anything seriously wrong with me. I just found out I start school on August 20th and I kind of find that really lame because they just keep shortening our Summer which sucks because I didn't really get to do anything this Summer. Oh well that's about all I got to update you guys with. Hope you all are enjoying your Summer.

Laters, Shadow.

I got a new sig. I had someone make it for me since I'm really no good with photoshop. I really like how it came it so here it is.

Well I've got my Xbox back! Well...I've had it for like a month now I just never got around writing it here. It wasn't even funny how much I sucked at Call of Duty 4 when I played it when I got my Xbox back. I was doing terrible at it, but I got my groove back and I'm owning it up online. I recently just played a doubles match on Gamebattles online for the first time since I had my Xbox and we basically owned them. We won two games out of three. Our doubles team record is 9-4. I'm also excited that Gamebattles just came out with a Singles ladder for Call of Duty 4 so I'm looking forward into competting in that ladder.

So Summer so far has been quite boring for me. I haven't really done anything except hanging out with friends. I've just been being the nerd I am and hanging at home, Playing games, and surfing the internet. I might go to Cupertino with my brother because he wants to go the Apple Campus to get some Apple swag and stuff. That might be fun, but I might not go considering that I'm sick. So pretty much I've been hanging out with friends and hanging out with my brother. I also broke my phone since it went through the wash too. I was hoping to break it so I can get a better one hehe. That's about it.

Laters, Shadow.

Well I called Xbox up and told them that my Xbox broke. So they decided to send me a box to put my Xbox in which I already got. All I have to do is send it back to them So they can give a new Xbox since my Xbox is experiencing hardware failure. They also offered to give me a month of Xbox Live for free, but I figured it was kind of pointless since I already have Xbox Live. So while I send my Xbox in to get a new one I'm going to borrow my brother in law's for the time being, but I'm not going to be playing it alot since Its always over 80 or 90 degrees outside and its too hot to play. So I'm very glad that I will be getting a new Xbox soon. They also said that my warranty was expired last year so I found that pretty funny since I had my Xbox for a very long time.

I just picked this up on Saturday when I went to the mall because I've hearing great things about it. I also noticed that It was made by Square-Enix and that was why it look so much like Kingdom Hearts to me with its style. I love the story about how you have to play a game for a week by completing missions and if you make to the end you get your life back (Since you died), but if you fail you get erased. The thing I noticed about the enemies in The World Ends With You was their names because they are called "Noise" and the enemies in Kingdom Hearts are called "Heartless" and "Nobodies". I felt that their names were related when I was playing through this game. Another thing I love about this game is how the music is similar to Kingdom Hearts. The music is more modern in The World Ends With You than It is in Kingdom Hearts where It is a little more orchestra. The music was my favorite thing when I was playing. The combat style is unique because you control one character on top with the D-pad and one on the bottom with the stylus. I have already beaten the game, but I am going through trying to complete the side missions.

Sadly my xbox died 2 weeks ago...Well its not really dead, but it just keeps getting 2 Red Rings If I play for more then 10 minutes then it shuts off on me. I either have to get a new Xbox, Send it into Microsoft or...Just not do anything about it. The only reason I'm saying that I'm not going to do anything about it is because of my grades in school. I have a D in English and I want to raise that up highter and I can't really do that if my Xbox is fixed because I'll just be playing it instead of working on homework. I guess It sucks to not have an Xbox, but It's not too bad. I'm thinking about getting my Xbox fixed once its Summer because I'll have nothing to do when its Summer except hangout with my girlfriend. Right now I'm just planning to focus on school and get my grades as high as possible without being distracted.

Yes, today was my birthday and I have finally turned 15. I didn't really do much today. On Saturday I went out with a friend and my family and we went downtown to a sushi restaurant called Hiro's. I love that place they make the best sushi ever there. Yeah we were all talking about how I was born and stuff. It was actually pretty funny hearing the story my mom gave me about when I was born. Today, I was waken up by a flood of text messages from my friends saying "Happy Birthday!" to me. I was literally trying to go back to sleep, but I kept getting text messages and my phone kept viberating. Yeah so I went out to breakfast with my brother, Byron, and my mom. It was pretty good just to have a nice breakfast with my brother and my mom. After we got done eating breakfast I went to brother's house to chill for a little bit because we were planning to go see a movie later so we were watching SNL Digital Shorts. They were pretty funny. We went and saw Drillbit Taylor and It was a pretty funny movie. It was good. I really didn't get that many gifts. I basically got money from my grandma and that's about it. I was kind of bummed because I didn't really hang out with my friends this weekend so I kind of feel bad, but I'll make it up to them somehow.
