Kilroy Was Here

The week is almost over. It's unfair how short spring break felt. A week simply isn't enough. I can't wait till summer now.

It's not that I hate school. Actually, I hate every single aspect of it except for seeing friends. I'd much rather do something else with my time. I like to have freedom, no homework, no projects, and all that good stuff. I can tolerate it for a while, but I'm at the point where enough is enough.

School starts back up Tuesday, and it's almost Friday already. Could I have done anything more than what I did do? Probably. But so far it's been very relaxing, very chill, I've seen a few friends, and it's been pretty good. I went swimming once so far, I started reading a book, I met up with friends, and I'm hoping to achieve more in the next few precious days of freedom. I still haven't started any homework.

Anyway, today we filmed the preliminary UNDERFIRE 3. I haven't looked at the footage yet, and I'm not going to probably till tomorrow or so. Again, I'm going to take this very slowly, editing bit by bit, redoing scenes maybe, just going to piece this film together. I want it to be a good film because I felt let down after what the last video ended up being like. I was honestly disappointed with how it ended up. I didn't feel like it was as good as it should have been. But people learn from their mistakes, and I hope I learned enough. I got some really nice angles too, so I'm eager to see those at least. Not so much of the editing.

I got a Day of Defeat achievement today. 8 kills from a single deployed machine gun in the same spot without moving, i.e. 8 kills from a mounted machine gun, and you can't move your position. I totally got everyone by surprise, and I even shot someone through the trees. But then someone came and shot me in the back. Cheap pricks. I got my achievement though, so I R happy. By the way, the title of this post is the name of the achievement.

I stopped playing Rainbow Six Vegas in hopes that I will finish it slower this way, but I know eventually it will get finished. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I bought fountain pens. I'm not sure why. I've always liked how fountain pens looked when they were used, so I decided to get some. I still haven't used the pens yet. I'm afraid to bring them to school because I consider them very nice. I had my awesome Boxy eraser lost because I forgot it in science. I was very sad, because I've had that eraser for 3 years, and it's such a good one too. So I shall not bring such valuables to school any more. School can go suck it.

Half-Life 2 still amazes me. I got to the Sandtraps level, the one right before Nova Prospekt. It's scary as hell. I hate jumping over sand with the risk of an antlion attack. I want my pheropods. I'm almost there though, just gotta get past one more thumper and a guardian, and they're mine!! ALL MINE!! I love harnessing the power of antlions. They are the absolute best weapon ever. Too bad you have to leave them eventually.

I friggin' love shotguns. The shotgun in HL2 is great in almost any situation. What kind of SPAS-12 can shoot 2 bullets at once?! NONE, EXCEPT IN THIS GAME. I'm getting wayy outta line now. I'm talking about shotguns. I'd better stop myself while I'm still close to ahead.

Night people. Enjoy your last few days of spring break.
