Drawing

I never know how to draw Alex. He is a handsome piece of man muffin and I want his butt, but when I do a lil doodle of him I always have to lie abit. Alex has facial hair and whenever I draw it on him the picture gets ten times creepier. I've got no problem with his man mane in real life, but drawing it's just... wrong.



He is right beside me right now playing Mount and Blade trying to defend a castle versus 1057 people. He has 70.

Good luck.

I have an addictive personality, not like I'm addicting to be around but I become addicted to things easily. If I enjoy something the chances are I will not put down this interest until I have exhausted it extensively. This latest obession has been Mount and Blade, an open ended action rpg for the computer avilable on steam. I'm not into Medieval fantasy at all, if anything I tend to aviod the genre as a whole. That is why I am slightly confused to why I've spend over 3 hours a day fighting long and hard against the wimpy Swadians.

Playing without a concrete story is daunting at first but the fun of battles, tournaments and quests soon helps the looming fear dissapear. Rather than being propelled by an indepth story, Mount and Blade is instead propelled by the player own ambitions and fun, exciting gameplay. I have played over 10 hours of the game as a whole and I still find there are more things to see and do.

The game is not for everyone, espeically those who put an importance on graphics. Being an older game you can't neccesarily blame it for it's rustic textures and choppy models. If you can push past the first impression and get to the core of the game, the graphics quickly take a backseat to fun. Gameplay is addictive, but battles take practice and people without paitence could find the learning curve tedious. If you really find the graphics that offendsive, there are now two sequels out for Mount and Blade with improved graphics, story and game play. I just haven't gotten around to buying them. (If you're interested in buying them I would do that now since they are all on sale on Steam)

I reccomend anyone willing to sit down, learn and play to pick up this game and get ready for an addiction. If you enjoy the managment and sieging aspects of games like RotTK and the hack and slash game play of Demon Souls or Sengoku Basara, I would highly reccomend it as well. Good times all around.

Happy Mothers day to every mom in the world.
Mom's are tough.
If you are tough- you are a mom.

In other words I would really love to play Mount and Blade. I can't really say anything about it because I haven't played it that much, but from what I've seen its amazing.

Also I saw Thor. My favourite star was the boom mic.

At one point in every gamers life the dream of being a game developer comes into light. Now whether or not you decide to follow that dream you can get a piece of the fun with Game Dev Story by Kairosoft for the Iphone. The game puts you in the role of running an indie game company through out a 20 year span. In these short 20 years its your job to create the best games you can, and maybe win a few awards along the way.

When creating a game you can choose the type, genre and direction of the game as a whole. Different combinations of types and genres will have different reactions from your loyal customers and fans. For example a robot shooter game is an excellent combination and will garner a lot of attention, but a romantic racer might not be the best choice if you're trying to make a hall of fame game.

The games runs well and I've had no problems with it so far. Everything you need to do is always a click away, which makes the game incredibly easy to maneuver. I usually find my self multitasking while playing because you can very easily play the game with one finger and half a pint of attention being payed to it.

All in all the game is completely enjoyable and very easy to get into. I'd recommend Game Dev Story for anyone who has enjoyed games like Hospital Tycoon, Top Shop and Metropolis Mania. If you are someone who likes tycoon games in general this would probably be a smart game to add to your collection.

Kairosoft excels in making these adorable, extremely fun, tycoon games. It has multiple games release in Japanese and their game Hot Spring Story is currently released in English.

I sincerely miss having a computer.

If I had one right now I'd be playing minecraft. Also talking to people. Maybe I don't know, reading some shit.

I CANT WRITE WITH ALEX LOOKING AT ME.

So I am at my aunts right now and writing this. Alex has been away in the states for a week and I've just been farting around at home. Luckily Alex knows I have absolutely no life other than hanging out with him and playing video games and being the sweetie he is lent me his (brother's) wii. It lent me a few key games like Mario Kart, Kirby's Epic Yarn and My Life as a King. I can literally spent 60 hours straight playing My Life as a King, I don't know why but it's a life draining game. Very fun.


I rented a few games too and I've put down the royal life to take up a hoe and roleplay as a farmer with Harvest Moon Animal Parade. In my opinion Harvest Moon will never reach the the same enjoyability as 64. There hasn't been as many enjoyable, relaxing and life sucking farming sims since that. Animal Parade isn't 64, not at all, but it's a large improvement from Magical Melody and Save the Homeland.

Although hard to get into at first, Animal Parade quickly turns enchanting. The characters are bright and enchanting, all of them are easy subjects to fall in love with. The mechanics are easy enough, although perhaps I cheated since I used the classic controller for most of my game. It's not 64 in anyway, but it feels comfortable to play as a fan of the first few Harvest Moon games. There is a certain air to the game that makes it feel nostalgic.

My birthday was a few days ago (the 8th) and this was my first SURPRISE BIRTHDAY. I kind of asked for it in the first place but it was like I didn't know when it would be or if would actually happen. It was held at the cutest little chocolate shop downtown. I was taken there by my sister who I thought was taking me to a fancy bar restaurant place. Well we went to this Chocolates Etc, and when I got there Ange, Kevin, my aunt Donna, my dad and my delicious boyfriend were there to greet me with the biggest smiles of the century. The cake Alex got me was delicious too! The cake was made out of slices of fancy wedding cake that hadn't been taken after a wedding cake testing the day before.
