100%'d my new copy of Picross 3D. The puzzle is great, but the game is designed like 6-year-olds are going to play it, which is obnoxious as hell. Also seriously missed the hidden bonus levels and the daily Picross from the first 2D game. That's actually worth unlocking. What do I care if I unlock a new animation? I never look at that crap anyways, you know? Crappy design. But still the puzzle itself is worth it if nothing else.

PORTAL 2 COMES OUT NEXT MONTH!!!! :D

Picked up Miles Edgeworth again, just starting the last case. I'll write a review when I finish; it's an interesting new take on the classic Ace Attorney games. Even though I'm awfully late in playing/reviewing it :3

Over spring break I pulled out Chibi Robo (NGC) and was surprised to discover what a short game it is. I haven't actually beaten it yet, but by focusing more on the story line than I did when I first played it, I've gotten about as far in only 6 hours as opposed to probably three times that much. We'll see how long it takes to finish it, if I ever get a chance now that I'm back at school. This is the busiest time of the year.

On a personal level, school's been really fun and I've been much more academically successful this semester so far. I got my first church gig ever singing on Easter as part of a quartet (the bass is a soloist from the DSO so I'm absolutely flattered to have the job!) and I'll be part of a huge choir performing the Mozart Requiem and Brahms' Nanie in a few weeks (and then again in May). All is well with family and friends and I recently signed a lease for an apartment next year. I even have a job lined up for this summer, until July when I leave for Africa! Going on a study abroad trip to learn traditional East African singing, dancing, and drumming. The only thing not working in my favor lately is a nasty little cold that came up in the night, but at least resting more than usual gives me a chance to catch up here. Life is good :)
