I finally remembered to stop in at the grocery store on my way home to buy a tomato and some lettuce. Then I came home and made a really good sandwich omg. 8)

I've done ~absolutely nothing~ ever since. I found out my Mario & Luigi (GBA) file deleted itself which really bugs me because, while I like the game, I'm REALLY bad at it and i was about halfway through--it was hard just to get there. D: So I've pulled it from my now playing list and I'll start it again... some other time. u_u;

In lieu of that I was playing some Elite Beat Agents trying to get to the highest rank but I can't seem to get A-rank (let alone S-rank) on any more songs than I have now so I'm not having much luck. I've set it aside for a while too (because the songs are starting to drive me crazy).

...so instead, I'm grinding in Diamond to get enough money to buy that last ribbon from the rich people place for Marluxia (...my Cherrim :D). I'm about halfway there which is awesome, considering I started with only 11k. (I need 999,999. XD;)

Three classes tomorrow and then WEEKEND. \o/

Actually managed to get up on time (yay!) and made it to the bus stop early (yay!) just as the bus pulled away (DDD8). I called a taxi and waited a few minutes but then another bus pulled up anyway so I guess the one I'd missed was just the previous bus running really late, lol. Regardless, I got to campus around 9 and handed in my assignment. C:

Got my bloodwork done. n_n I walked into the lab and there was this nice little old lady sitting in there. She was SO nice and SO good at it. They have a recliner in there and she rested my arm on a pillow while she did the procedure and she got it first try and everything and just... eeee so much better than the last time it happened when it caused my dad to faint. XD

I made a follow-up appointment with the doctor I saw the other day but the only days available were November 16th and 18th. ;_____; The 16th is the day of my last midterm (calculus ugggh) so I really need to spend the day studying. The 18th? That's the day Assassin's Creed II comes out. DDD: Mom wants to come up for that so the day is just gonna be... ugh. Classes in the morning, then doctor's appointment, then mom will chill with me for a bit idk, then I write an algebra quiz. It'll take forever just to go GET the game, let alone play it. BAAAAAW.

Went to classes afterward and didn't feel up to going all the way back home and then back for my afternoon class so I just grabbed lunch and then studied in the library all afternoon. u_u; The quiz I wrote in the afternoon tutorial didn't even have half the stuff they told us to study ugh. The course site specifically said the quiz would be on 3.1 to 3.4 and it was only up until 3.3. I hate when that happens. ~_~

idk if anyone's noticed but... I'm trying to blog every day in November. Even if it's just boring crap like this. :( The beginning-to-mid-week stuff is always gonna be this boring but I swear I'll have less mundane things to talk about later in the week. Maybe. Probably not.

Wow today was so much nothing.

I accidentally stayed up on PC with ausaudriel until 5 last night, trolling each other. @_@; He artificially ran up my notification count to over 30 million and hasn't switched it back, lmao. I was doing Calculus at the same time...! But yeah, ended up waking up at like noon.

Spent the rest of the day doing calculus and finished the assignment around 4:30 by which point I figured it would be too much of a hassle to head out to campus to hand it in since I wouldn't even be able to get my bloodwork done before/after. So instead I'm waking up extra early (by which I mean, like, 8 am lol) to get it in by 9:20 tomorrow. *sigh* At least the lab in the clinic is open that early, though, so I should be able to get my blood drawn before my first class so I don't miss any. Yay! (...I guess.)

Ugh, it's nearly midnight. I should head off to sleep. x_x

guys help i can't stop listening to this. :(

My sleep last night was amazing. Best one yet, here. *_* It took me a while to get to sleep last night because I actually had too many pillows. I'm used to needing so many but I was so comfortable with just one. It was really strange! It's also a bit uncomfortable to be sleeping on my side which is how I usually prefer it but sleeping on my back was just... really comfy so maybe I'll change my preference or something. I dunno. A++ sleep though. :D

Long story short, I missed algebra this morning and then decided not to bother with calculus since I'd just be leaving early anyway. I... really should've gone though. At least I'd have been on campus. ~_~

The bus I needed to take to get to campus on time was at 11:54. When I was across the street from the bus stop, it was 11:48 and I ran up in time to see the bus pulling away. I ended up walking the whole way to campus which is about a 40 minute walk. I called ahead to let them know I'd be late but... ugh. It didn't help that I seemed to hit every red light along the way and, as I was walking, missed two more buses (not the same one I'd originally been trying to catch but both of them would've dropped me off close enough). Uggh.

Luckily, the doctor was still there and she still saw me even though I was 15 minutes late omg. ♥ ;_; I was so thankful. I gave her the background info and she printed out the blood requisition form for me... and though I only asked for a CBC to be done, she added in a few other things to check. :3 She also gave me a prescription for naproxen since I said cramps were getting bad again and I don't want to be taking percocet (they're ultimately what made me fail last semester x_x). I've tried that before and it never worked but she said I should give it another one since circumstances have changed and whatnot. *shrug* 30 pills ended up only costing me $1.39 so I can't complain even if they don't work. XD;

Anyway, after that I came home and sat around for a while. Studied a bit (I played more Elite Beat Agents than studied but shhh) and then left 10 minutes early for my midterm. So of course, when I'm extra early for the bus, it comes 5 minutes late. *sigh* Oh well. Got there on time and wrote the test. It was longer than the first midterm and not nearly as easy but I think I did okay. :[

Mom wanted me to take a taxi home since the exam was basically over at 9pm but lol, she's super paranoid. 8| Next bus wasn't for a while and I hate standing around so I walked up to Laurier and waited a few minutes for the bus there. Then came home and ate a late dinner and now I'm staring at a blank page of graph paper.

:( Better start my calculus assignment. ick.

I have a midterm tomorrow and I have yet to study for it. Hahaha, oops.

I was pleasantly surprised. Mom & Dad called me before they left Toronto today. They hadn't checked their email so it was a good thing too--I needed them to bring up a fork.

See, apparently every fork in the house has gone missing except for one. I put up a sign last week in the kitchen basically saying "Guys where are all the forks? :(" hoping whoever had them would feel guilted and sheepishly just return them to the sink so everyone could continue using them. No luck. Dean and I had two forks we were using everyday (we're the only ones in the house who consistently prepare meals every night) but I forgot to wash them and put them away in my drawer (hidden with chopsticks lol) after dinner one night and another one went missing, ugh. So yes, my parents brought up one more fork and we will be much more careful with it. My notes may get more and more passive-aggressive if forks don't turn up soon. Gotta start asking roommates about it when I see them too, even though I really only ever see Dean and Matt. x_x

Anyway, parents came up and brought a crapton of stuff. Two more boxes of Coke, two bottles of raspberry juice (omg ♥) and some other things like dry pasta, some soup, etc. Mom also brought me up a 3" memory foam to put over my mattress. It's... it's... it's so fucking comfy omg. I had it decompressing (it was vacuum-sealed, lol) on my bed while we went out and Dean helped me get my bedding on over it when I got home and just... unf. I'm going to have the best sleep ever tonight, I just know it.

But yeah, mom and dad took me out for lunch after that. :') It was nice to just get to sit and talk with just them for a while. We went to Boston Pizza and I had some pasta thing even if I wasnt hungry (I took like... all of it home and had it for dinner later, lol). Then we went to the mall and did a huuuge grocery shop. Mom and I found the discount Halloween candy and we bought sooo much. XD; I must have like 400 mini-size chocolate bars in my closet now. Wonder how long that'll last. (Got some Oh Henrys, Reese's cups and pieces, Smarties, and Aero. ♥) Grabbed more groceries and useful things and yaaay. It was quite awesome.

Didn't do much all day since they went home though. Put everything away, reorganized the bottom of my closet (where I keep snacks and stuff), and then Dean and I were really craving frozen hot chocolates so we walked all the way down University to Second Cup. Omg it was so good. 8) Haven't done anything but chill around and post on PC after we got home, yay.

...damn, when did it get so late? Matt just knocked and asked if I wanted to watch Dexter but I have to decline since I've gotta get to bed to make sure I'll be up in time to get to campus for my doctor's appointment. (...at 12:15pm. Shut up.)

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned it here but... 358/2 put me on a real KH kick so I've been replaying KH1. It's veeery slow because not only is the battle system so clunky (camera I hate you so hard) but I'm playing on Proud Mode. Oh, and playing the FM version so enemies have more HP and abilities arrive at weird levels. It's been very trying.

But! I am finally up to the part I wanted to get to. The @#$*ing second Riku fight! Let me tell you, being able to skip that freaking cutscene was practically orgasmic because oh my god I can fail epically in this fight and not have to watch the 3 minute cutscene each time I retry. *_* This is the main reason I bought FM! (No, seriously. I knew if I ever played through KH1 again, I wanted the ability to skip cutscenes just for this one fight.)

I still suck at the fight though. My current strategy is to Strike Raid my way through the whole thing, bringing in several ethers and a few elixers. Then I just dodge roll when he spazzes at me and repeat the cycle. I haven't gotten used to dodge rolling in such close quarters but... I will! I just need more practise but not right now because it's 3:30AM.

I must admit, though, it's a lot of fun playing through this game and going, "Haha, the Organization is totally watching his every move." And then imagining how often they'd be facepalming at my constant failures. ("Did he just... just jump off the edge back to the basement? Really? fml i hate my job.") I think my friend and I have decided that every time I revive, it's them going "Oh shit, our Keyblade Master" and curing me, replenishing my items, and dragging me out to safer ground. XD; IT MAKES MY CONSTANT DEATH EASIER TO DEAL WITH, OKAY?

			Currently: I beat Maleficent yaaay! Current Tags: gaming:kingdom hearts

Ahahaha omg.

Around 10ish, my roommate invited me to watch Dexter with him and, since it beats staying up till 4am waiting for a torrent, I jumped at the chance. So we watched it and then we were just talking about random shit for a while. We watched two more episodes (so we watched the new one, then the one before it, then the new one again xD) and just dorked around. Then we were talking about iPod/iPhone apps and he mentioned the Dexter one. I'd heard the game on the App Store is actually pretty good so he bought it and we started playing it.

Omfg we kept laughing our asses off. XD It's a good game--it looks good, it sounds good, and overall the gameplay isn't that bad--but ugggh parts of it are just so hilariously bad. Or we're bad at it. Or something. Like I just spent half an hour trying to do a two minute mission where you have to pick the lock on a door, run from that door into another room before a dog gets you, and then find all this guy's porn. If you fail at the running part, you have to smash the window. But just... lmfao. It was sooo hard and his iPod wasn't being very responsive so it was basically just a game of chance. XD I was doing okay on my last try and just as I had to do the hardest part (running from the back door to this guy's room), his dog (er, roommate's, so it actually happened XD) jumps up between my legs and the game so I couldn't see what I was doing... and somehow that was the only time I managed to do it.

Lmao it doesn't sound funny now but aklfjsdlf we liked died laughing omg. And then we simultaneously realized it was pretty much 4am, haha. But wow, it's an addictive gmae but I probably wouldn't play it on my own. It was just too much fun playing with someone else. XD; Like this other part, we took Rita on a date and even though we didn't really want to, we decided to be extra super nice to her--and we didn't get laid. :'( After tonight's episode we have an ongoing joke about Dexter having to sleep outside no matter how much of a model husband he is, etc. so it tied in rather nicely. 8D;

But lol, I'm not too tired which is bad. 8|;; I'm gonna go eat cereal and try to sleep though. *sigh* :(

Um, haven't made an entry in a while. Again. Oops.

Point form!

→ Thanksgiving was good. Mom was in Vegas (one of my cousins was getting married there) so I just chilled with my dad and my brother. Had massive cramps on Saturday and part of Sunday which sucked since I didn't get to see triforce89 but I got lots of sleep over the weekend, ate LOTS OF GOOD FOOD and it was basically just super awesome.

→ Brain!surgery cousin is okay!! ♥ Doctors were amazed but he's doing really well. He's home already because instead of taking weeks/months to relearn how to walk and whatnot, it took him a few days. He's retained all his memories and speech and everything and... he's actually planning to go back to school soon. O_O; Lmao I feel like such an underachiever now, haha. I'm just glad he's okay.

→ Mom came up last weekend. She brought me food, my boots, and some other stuff. We went out for lunch. Went to the mall and they added an entirely new section. I knew they were reno'ing but wow. EB Games moved to a bigger storefront and are now a Gamestop. I picked up Dead Space. Mom also bought me a pair of $50 slippers because they were so comfy and I needed a new one. ;~; omgg I love them so much. Also she bought my groceries. I love herrr. So glad I got to see her since I didn't at Thanksgiving. :'D Wish we'd had more time to talk with just the two of us though. I need to go home again sometime.

→ Started playing Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix last week. It's SO HARD omg. D: I'm playing on Proud Mode and I'm not used to the shitty camera, nor am I used to the controls. (Though thank god it's got the Japanese controls or I'd be dying even more than I am now!) It took me like 3 or 4 hours today just to beat the Cave of Wonders. x_x I'm at level 22 and I don't get guard until 33 because for some reason I decided to choose magic at the beginning of the game. Boo.

→ So close to complete in KH 358/2 Days. :'D I need about 10 more challenge sigils and I'll mark it completed on Backloggery. (I waited until level 100 with the Japanese version but I'm not going to let myself do that again.)

→ HAVE I MENTIONED I LIKE KINGDOM HEARTS? eeeeeee the trailer for BBS that came out this week. sdklfsd want so much!! I'm glad it has a release date (January 9 fuck yeah!) but it's gonna be a lot. x_x; $60ish in Japan and by the time I import, it'll probably be close to $100, ugh. I'll probably try to swing it as my Christmas present and then I can get the one-day shipping and not be paying as much as I would. Otherwise I'm gonna be spoiler-avoiding for half a month again and that sucked. DD: (Yeah, I'm importing. I'm impatient with KH games!)

→ Got accepted into the social networking preview on XBL. :D Yay twitter! I doubt I'll use it much on there though, since I don't have a keypad and I usually play with a computer near me anyway. (That and it's a standalone app on the dashboard?) Haven't had a chance to try out Facebook yet though I probably will over the weekend. I wish Last.fm was available in Canada. ;__;

→ Ordered Microsoft Windows 7 today! :DD I added the CD to my cart so it'll be shipped home sometime but I'll be downloading it and reformatting my netbook to install it this weekend, likely tomorrow. Just have to back everything up and make sure I have my wifi driver downloaded first.

→ Not going into much detail but it involves my FAVOURITE TMI HEALTH ISSUE that you can probably read back on if you're curious. But anyway, my doctor is a little worried, apparently, and is suggesting I get "complete bloodwork" done. But since I don't have an official requisition form, I have to go to a doctor here to get one so I have an appointment on Nov 2nd at the campus clinic. I have a midterm that day so while I can go in and update them on my health status and get the papers, I'll have to wait on the bloodwork. I'm not so good with it and I don't wanna do anything to compromise the test even if it'd be hours before. v_v

→ Final exam schedule is out! The first one I saw on it was my CS exam which is December 22nd. ffffffffff. That's the last day of the exam period. XD; Luckily, I checked the others and I'm pretty sure they go Dec 19 (Saturday), December 21 (Monday) and then the Tuesday one. Thank god! I emailed my family about it and mom said she'll drive me home after classes end around Dec 6th and then she'll drive me back out for my exams and then home again. D'aww. :')

Why do my point form entries always end up so long omg.

So uhh... yeah, wow, weekend is over. :( That went way too fast. I blame triumphantchaos.

Let's see... I finished 358/2 Days in English on Friday. My thoughts on it have not changed since I beat the game in Japanese so go to that entry if you want to know post-game thoughts and the like.

I have that midterm tomorrow. To study for it, I basically just did the assignment due this week since all they've told us about the exam content is that it'll be up to assignment 3. Had no trouble with that. Tomorrow I'll just go over some basic stuff and that's probably it. There's really not much else to study.

In other news, cramps are bugging me but I am honestly quite sick of talking about it on LJ and am kind of hoping if I ignore the issue and pretend it's not there, it'll go away. Health issues, YAY.

Can't wait for my long weekend next week omg. v_v; I need to figure out how/when I'm gonna get home though. *sigh*
