B-Day Approacheth, leave of absence, other updates

Wed Sep 30, 2009, 3:19 PM
  • Mood: Content
  • Listening to: Sonic Adventure 2 Soundtrack - Believe in Myself
  • Reading: Black Lagoon Volume I
  • Watching: Black Lagoon
  • Playing: Halo: ODST
Yep, October 28 comes in less than a month. I'll be turning 21, but I have no intention to drink at all on that day. Heck, I can only see myself drinking on a special occasion and even that will be extremely light. :XD: It is just something I don't really want to do.:p

Some people are already aware of this, but I will go ahead and announce it here. Sometime within the next month, I likely will be taking a leave to attend to some personal matters. Expect me gone from 5-7 days. I will be taking my laptop with me, but that is just so I can do some schoolwork and not fall behind in my classes if I can. The only reason I don't know when I exactly I will be leaving is because it is going to be a very last-minute thing.

Bought Halo 3: ODST the other day. It has been very fun so far to say the least. Still need to get some games set up with friends though.:p

School is going pretty well. Mythology and InDesign are still a piece of cake. The animation courses are a bit of a bore though to be honest. Hopefully they will get better. I also plan to get my Civic Honors this year. It takes 50 hours of community service to get it, but it will be worth it.:) Going to work for 8 hours at a local food bank on Saturday.:)

I finally got hooked into an anime as well recently. Black Lagoon. It just seems like my kind of show!:D I have watched the entire first season so far and plan to start on the second season soon.

I plan to either buy the Adobe collection that I mentioned last time or get a new desktop computer this month.:) Time to move away from this increasingly-crappy laptop. XD I most likely will wait until after my leave to purchase it though. We'll see.

The rise to 100K is slow, yet steady.=p

Hopefully I can get a new chapter of Tightrope up shortly as well.

Finally, for those looking forward to me hosting another Secret Santa, you can expect me to start sign-ups within the next couple of days.:) I am hoping to double the number of participants I got last year. The rules will primarily stay the same, but I discuss those in the sign-up journal whenever it is posted. Yes, I know I am starting it much earlier than I did last year, but again, I just want to get more people involved in the fun!:D Sign-ups will likely last for around 3 weeks before I start to tell who is making something for who and whatnot.

That is all for now!

Have fun and enjoy your day!

You're only hitting 21? Somehow, I figured you were older than that. Well, if I remember, I'll wish you a good one.

ODST is the current game you're playing, right? I've heard a few things about the game... tell me, is it really worth $60? I've been thinking of getting a new 360 game, but I'm torn between a few games.
