Yey, it's my birthday -.- Meh, normally I'd be excited but I don't know why this year this birthday thingy hasn't gotten into me. Oh well. As for presents, my parents gave me an HDTV (omgzorz it'z zo awesoooomeee!) My friends and stuff, I still don't know, me waiting for them come over here.

Sooo... as for gaming news. Ok, actually there are no gaming news, cause I've been playing Gears, period. I'm now participating in a tournment, so far so good, I hope to get a nice place ._. (Neon, I'm still waiting for your so promised live account "somewhere around February"). That game is so freakin awesome, and I won't even mention how great the graphics are when played on my new TV. I can't describe it.

Hmmm... I also lent my Viva Piņata and traded it for Oblivion, for some weeks. I decided to give one more opportunity to this game (the first time I played it I couldn't stand it) and I have now like.... 20 hours on that freakin' game? I'm quite enjoying it now that I understand what's going on and stuff, but I turned into a vampire yesterday, and I.DO.NOT.LIKE.IT. The f***ing quest to find the cure is huge and I'm not in the mood to it do so yeah... I'm a vampire now. Which sucks. I'll just try to finish the game, get the achievements, and give it back to my friend. Bah!

As you can see, my Xbox360 is now my system of election but I haven't forgotten my PS2 yet. I got Okami and.... Final Fantasy XII! I have almost 10 hours in Okami and it is a damn good looking game. The battles are kinda boring, but the bosses and the whole environment are making me fall in love for that game. As for FFXII, believe it or not, I have 15 min on it. I saw the first sequence, played a bit to see how the battles were, and never touched it again. Blame the 360. But I definitly need to go back to FFXII and play it till I finish it, with no other game in the middle. Maybe when the tournment is over... Sorry Square >_>

One more thing that I forgot to mention in my other entry, I'm now a proud owner of a very awesome electric guitar, and I've been learning since... October or something I guess. I can play some cool things, my previous knowledge on music (adquired with my piano lessons for... 6 years?) helped me so much... I love to play guitar, oh yeah I do. Me rocks out, yeah!

Ahem.... now I think that's all. See y'all.

Oh my gawd. I can't believe that my last blog entry was on... 29 August?!?! I mean... whoa. Probably all of the people around here forgot me or thought I was dead, but I got a bad new for ya: I'm not

I could type till tomorrow, but since I have a Biology test in the morning, this will be a quick thing (at least I hope so). For the recent news, I'm completely addicted to my Xbox 360. I'm just SO glad I got it now... All of this has a reason: Gears of War. That game deserved the award of GotY. Seriously, it owns. Since I got it (somewhere around Christmas break) I've played through the game so many times that I can't even count them right now. I beat the game on Casual, Hardcore and Insane by myself, I've helped many of my friends beating it on some difficulty, I beat it again with one of my friends to get thh "Dom's achievements" and I've played AGAIN to get all the COG tags... so yeah... I probably can play that game with my eyes closed and not dying a single time. The thing is... I'm actually having trouble playing that s*** online. I get my ass kicked almost everytime, except when it's Warzone. I can't understand why

Ahem...

Another game I bought recently was Viva Piņata and that game is... cute. I can't find another word to describe it. It IS cute. So I have some hours on it, my garden is growing, but I never have enough money to do what I want, which kinda sucks. What to do? Romance those Whirlims for hours. It's a desperate measure but hey... it works. Now I'm kinda tired of the game since I haven't been in the mood to play games that require patience, so yeah.

Also borrowed PGR3. The game is good, just not my type of game. I found it quite boring. I'll probably get Burnout Revenge sometime soon, eh. (what? I've always been a Burnout fan and I do not own the PS2 version and I've been having fun with the demo so I'll buy it, yes).

As for my PS2... Guitar Hero II wasn't a challenge, I beat the damn game in 2 days, and eventually not played it anymore after one week. I'm waiting for the 360's version (yes, I'll buy it as well), probably it will be more fun, with the achievements and online and the extra songs and all that cool stuff. I almost finished MGS2 but the game keeps on freezing on a certain part, so I gave up. So both of the Guitar Hero's are all that I've been playing on PS2. It's Microsoft's fault, blame 'em.

As for personal stuff that you may (not) be interested in, my grades in the first term were good, everything's good with my boyfriend, hanging out with friends, family is ok, nothing to worry about... It's all fine.

NOW I'm off. Hope I'll have more time to be around here and update this thingy more often, 5 months (o.O) with nothing is kinda... sad.

See ya

PS: Oh by the way and before I forget... CatamyKX is my gamertag on XBLive (I don't understand why GS isn't letting me put my gamecard over there), you can add me, just tell me you're from here or something, or else I'll probably decline if I'm on a bad mood.

Ok. So here I am again, after my huge abscence from GS and my even huge-er failure in getting those 100 comments in the last entry. But who cares? I don't.

Soo... Into some interesting stuff. As I said before, I went to a music festival last week. It was one hell of an adventure, and I won't get into detail because... it isn't really worth it. But if you asked me to describe it in one word I'd say: wet.

For those o wanna know, keep reading this paragraph. So... last Tuesday me and one of my friends (Ana) met here in my house in the morning, to go to the place where the festival would be. My mom gave us a ride, we took 1 hour and a half to get there. Once arrived, we met up with my boyfriend and one of his friends, and a bunch of Ana's friends. We found a nice place to put our tents and prepared everything. After that we were just walking around and talking. Me and my boyfriend's friend were always argueing as always (our friendship is based on arguments and it's actually pretty funny... yeah, weird) and it was an awesome afternoon. At 6 pm the concert were about to start so we decided to go and see them. Everything's fine when it started... Raining. Still everything fine when it started raining... even more. And more. And more. I was more wet than if I was taking a shower so we decided to go back to our tents and spend the night there. We had a lot of fun, talked until very late and all. But the rain... didn't stop. "And what's the problem?" you're thinking. Well... the problem is that IT WAS RAINING *IN* OUR TENT the next morning. Exactly! That f***ing thing wasn't water proof. We decided to wait until the rain stopped. But it didn't for the whole f**ing day. We were supposed to stay there the next 2 days, but by that time all our clothes were completely wet, and everything was wet, and everyone was wet... Wet, wet, wet. So we decided to get the f*ck out of there. We called to a taxi central. No taxis.We asked if there was *any* way to get us to the train station. There was a bus who would take us there but... only half an hour later. So we stayed there in the cold rain, with our bags on our back... and waited. Once it arrived... Party! We had been saved! In the train station we went directly to the toilets to change our clothes and caught a train (one hour later, I must say) to our city. Now, you must know that we stayed 17 HOURS inside of that damn tent, where it was raining, yet *very* hot. Hell, it's the best word to describe it. Our group has acquired the name of: The Survivors. Oh yeah. And keep in mind that this is a summary... If I told you everything... this thing would be the bigger journal entry ever.

So... moving on! AFter this adventure it was time to relax! And what's one of the best ways to relax, people? Exactly, playing videogames! That's what I did the next days... I bought Fahrenheit (for those in America - most of you - this game is called Indigo Prophecy) for a nice price... 15 euros, more or less the same in dollars. I was very surprised with this game. I've always heard good things about it, but I didn't actually think that it was THIS good! I beat it in 2 days, got two different endings... still haven't got the "good one", just because I can't press R1 and L1 alternatedly (I know there's something wrong with the spelling here) for 5 freakin' minutes. Grr... Anyways, I haven't played one game like this one since KH2, so I'm happy.

If you remember (probably you don't), I had a bunch of games to play this summer... But as you can see, I didn't play them. I did some progresses in MGS2, but I got bored with that "hide and seek" strategy. Not my type. I started RE4 (yay Neon...) but I eventually got bored with the game cause... it's not my type either. I'll finish it, as well as MGS2 and 3, but I need some entertaining games for now. I startes FFX-2, but all that girlish style and happiness and "Yay! Girl power!" is not my type either, so I totally gave up of the game and was about to throw it away... But nah, I spent my precious money on it, I can at least keep it with me. My boyfriend told me the whole story instead, much nicer I must say. I had Dragon Quest VIII to start... but the game is so big, I don't feel like starting a game like that now, since I haven't had much time for gaming anyways.

Two games that I actually play almost every day, for short sessions are Guitar Hero and Burnout 3. Amazing games. I know that Burnout 3 is old, but the best in the series in my opinion, and my favourite racing game, period. It's one of those games that can literally change your mood... it always makes you feel better. As for Guitar Hero... I did it! I beat the expert career! I'm a guitar goddess, and now no one can say the opposite Now I pick up the game to improve my scores, I just don't get tired of it.

I see that most of you guys are starting school out there, but I still have 2 weeks of holidays ahead to enjoy... ah AH!

Hmm... that's about it I think... I see that GS did some changes around here. A category for my entry?! I don't know! I mean... there's many in here as you guys can see... Why don't they cut out the useless stuff and start working on the most important things around here? Oh well...

See ya

Some people just don't have opinions. Like Catamy.
Catamy must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could Catamy possibly have for not rating a single film?
