Short blog but hey, life happens right?

I am not a fan of college. I'm doing fine with my 3.5 but man is there so much to do. I've almost completely stopped partying for two reasons. One, partying won't get you s*^t in the future, unless you happen to meet your future wife or husband at a club and they somehow are rich or have crazy connections to help you get somewhere in life.

The chances of that happening, 1 in 2,754,395.

Yeah, that's right.

To everyone who isn't in college, trust me it's worth it to skip some parties and hang outs in order to get in school work and some hours at a job. Most of my friend's party like crazy (drink and smoke, the latter which I don't do at all) but they all have under 2.0's. In fact that highest grade is 1.7. Yeah that is crazy hard to bring up in college, and you don't wanna put yourself in that situation. Trust me in will affect your life. Just ask yourself if it's worth it to party it up at the possible expense of the next 30 years of your life. The second reason I almost completely stopped is because people can get stupid. To guys' watch who you mess with, some girls, no matter how fine really aren't worth it. And to girls be careful out there, not all guys are a**holes but some are even worse than that.

Drinking to Grades ratio

Next up: snowboarding.

So I'm up watching a preview/reply of the old X-Games and the one that will begin next week and it really made me want to snowboard like crazy. However I'm not really good at snowboarding so I like to do the next best thing which is play snowboarding games. However these days there isn't much to choose from which kinda sucks. Shawn White isn't that good to me, and Amped is pure BS in my opinion. I usually don't say this but "Where the hell are you EA?"

Yeah, that's right....again.

EA. If there were two things that EA ever got right it was their cool Fight Night series and SSX.

SSX was fun as, well I can't even say but it was fun. It may not have been realistic but there was something about it that blew our minds away. Maybe it was the customizable gear, memorable characters or crazy over the top courses. We really need another one of those, something to take our minds off of life so we can escape to the mountain. Fight Night 4 has been announced, come on SSX 4, get yourself in gear.

NOTE: SSX 3, hands down greatest snowboarding game ever. We can debate this and trust me; I'll never run out of things to say.

Amazing snowboarding game

Will FFXIII ever come out? Not for another year the least. From what I've researched SquareEnix is looking at winter 2009 as the release date. Problem is they still haven't officially announced anything. But even if they did I wouldn't believe them. We should all remember how many times FFXII and Kingdom Hearts 2 were pushed back. I expect FFXIII to do even worse with that. I'm willing to bet that I'll graduate and have my first career job, before it comes out and I'm a sophomore.

Is it just me or is everyone abnormally pretty in this game?

Either way, I'll be playing!

I hate party and drinks.
I hate snowboarding.
I hope FF13 will come out this year. I even bought 360 for this sake.

Good luck with college. I had SSX Trixky and it was a really fun game. FFXII looks alright, but I'm more looking forward to FFXII VS.

I'm with you about the partying. I've never been a big drinker.

FFXIII - abnormally pretty? Hrmph. I can get down with the long gloves and all the straps, but she's a little scrawny for my tastes

true about everything

Agreed about the drinking messing up with school. Happened to me!

I'm kinda somewhat looking forward to college but not exactly yet.

Everything you said about partying are the reasons I don't go to parties at all. Honestly, only thing I would say are great about the parties are the girls but to add to that, I'm very picky when it comes to girls too cause I'm also about looks AND personality and some girls either have one or the other. Plus a lot of girls at parties....just like to party, drink, get into trouble, etc. I can share stories about some girls I liked but for some reason, I was smart enough not to date but, well, I don't want to take up way too much space on these comments lol.

But for the most part, parties are really overrated. I'll go to b-day parties, family parties, QuinceaƱeras (hispanic traditional party when a girl turns 15), etc. though.

I played SSX Tricky and I remember loving that game a lot...I haven't played it in forever though. Eddie was the man!

I REALLY hope FFXIII comes out this year...definitely an RPG title to look out for on the X360 (unless I somehow get a PS3 cause I would get that version over 360 tbh) Star Ocean 4 should also be a good title too! I still need to beat Blue Dragon, Tales of Vesperia, Oblivion, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance though.

Square Enix always waits awhile now to release final fantasy games, Kinda like with Final Fantasy 12 they kept delaying it and junk, and then when it came out I was slightly dissapointed.

Well, I'll keep your advice in mind when I hit college. Although I'm sure I won't have a problem with it as I usually know when I need to set aside time for work/school.
Funny picture though.
As for snowboarding, I haven't actually gone snowboarding yet! Ever! I know, it sucks and it's something that I need to rememdy, haha.
I haven't played any of the FF or SSX games either though, so I can't really comment on that.
