Hello everyone!

First, I need to apologize for my lack of updates over the past couple of months. College has turned out to be more arduous than I had originally planned. I spend my days now, sifting through 100-200 pages a week and writing more papers than I could ever care to write. Add that on top of still trying to maintain a social life and gaming, these days, has become quite the task.

The past few weeks I have been able to combine the two by being invited to a small social gathering of friends to get my feet wet in some old-school Halo 2 action. It has been quite enjoyable, but on some level, it just isn't the same as being able to sit down and tear through a game on ones own time. That time, no longer exists. :-\

I recently ordered Lost Odyssey (about 5 minutes ago), in spite of my lack of time. I have been desperate from this type of RPG, and while I was apprehensive in dropping the money on it (money is thin these days), I'm really looking forward to diving into it. On the positive side of things, Spring Break is but only two weeks away, which will give me plenty of time to curl in some blankets and take it on.

That's about it for now. I just wanted to get a post up to show everyone that I am, in fact, not dead. Just buried. Buried under books and losing sanity. I apologize for my lack of comments lately. I am still reading your blogs! Just time, as always, is short.

I hope everyone had a good V-Day. :-)

Hey Scott! Glad to see you're back (if only for a short while now). Only 2 weeks to go and you can relax and play "Lost Odyssey" (I have to wait till the 29th of February, then it comes out in Europe) during your spring break. The game looks really good and I hope you'll enjoy it to the fullest!! I'm going to do that anyway! Don't know if you're having any exams (don't know the school system in the US), do your best, I'm sure you'll succeed.

Thank you for the well wishes. :-) Usually the system here has mid-term exams, but the classes I'm taking this year seem to not have this model and instead all focus on reading and then writing papers about the reading. It's not too bad, but it's time consuming. I've also had a nasty cold lately. :-\

That said I can't wait to take on Lost Odyssey! I've been reading bits and pieces about it every day and just get more and more excited to play it. :-D I can only imagine what the wait must be like over in Europe, probably about the same.

I've been dying for a good, true, JRPG. Eternal Sonata was decent, but LO seems like it will be more my cup of tea. :-)

Lots of inspiration and imagination for the writing of the papers! And take care of that nasty cold too. You don't want to be sick when you'll have the time to play LO.
