2008 was a pretty good year for me overall. Sophomore year is turning out to be much better than Freshman year even with the lack of awesome teachers. I'm making a lot of great new friends, sure I don't have a love life, but I think that's the way I've always preferred it.
Anyway, I given an honor from NDU saying that I changed it a lot and that I'm awesome like that, the only other person to receive that was nintyfreak so that means I must be doing something right. I'm still hellbent on hatred against Nintendo Revolution - dunno why but they just kinda tick me off. I'm still curtious at times though. I'm also back to doing the newspaper again which is nice I guess.
Gaming wise I found quite a few gems this year, it was actually a really low key year which has got me thinking on which games I should buy. I'm going to attempt to limit it to a good 5 next year. Anyway, my top five games for 2008 are in no particular order:
1. Rune Factory
2. Rune Factory 2 (Review coming soon!)
3. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
4. Team Fortress 2
5. Advance Wars Days of Ruin
Overall, a lot of long, replayable games on that list which is good because when I buy games I look for value.
I really can't name my best GS friends because there are so many awesome people, but I know that they know who they are and that my NDU friends are among, if not all of them.
On one final note I will leave you with a funny line from one of my drafts for my book:
Cyrus looked up from his magazine as Zane walked into the neatly arranged parlor containing white furniture covered with a shiny coat of slippery plastic. Zane never particularly liked this arrangement, but nonetheless he sat down next to Cyrus who immediately launched into an anecdote about his family.
"I've heard that you've been asking around about your family lately Zane, I got one thing, and one thing only to tell you about your grandpa in particular," said Cyrus as he slicked back his spiky mess of red hair.
"What do you know about my grandpa?"
"The first Jace, your grandpa, was one hell of a man, my best friend infact. We only had one little spat in our relationship, and that was when he walked off with my bride at the altar," Zane sensed a little fire in Cyrus' voice as he spoke, but his wide mouth was curled into that big smile that he often saw Draca wearing.
"Wh-what did you do?" asked Zane cautiously, not wanting to infuriate Cyrus.
"Haha! He may have walked off with my bride, your grandma, but I got the better reward!" he stated as Cecilia, his current wife walked into the room with a few mugs of hot coffee. "I walked off with his sister, ahahaha!"
