Well, it's that time again! After giving it some thought, I've decided to make my own lists of games, shows, movies, etc. I thought I'd start out with games, as that's the easiest category for me. Since this is part one, I'll start with the first three. So.....
Note: Tv.com won't let me post any pics for some reason, so here's the picture-less version.
At Number Ten: Kirby series: Featuring Kirby SuperStar
Ah, yes, Kirby. The weirdest hero you could put in a game. He's a pink blob of god knows what that eats enemies and takes their powers to use for himself. The Kirby series is always colorful and easy to get the hang of, which makes it easy for young players to play. Despite the fact that there is either little or no story in some games, and the fact that they are too easy, Kirby earns his place at number ten for the sake of being the only character that, even though he's pink, can cause massive damage by screaming into a mic......and because someone had to start the list. Kirby is a cutesy little guy that dies too easily, but this little chewing gum of a character is just too hard to hate.
At Number Nine: Prince of Persia series: Featuring the original Prince of Persia
This game was the original action/adventure game that brought maze-like dungeons and sword fighting heroes to the mainstream arena. The series spans six canon games with two stories of different "Princes" in each trilogy, with a new game released late last year, which may be made into a new trilogy. Despite the newer games being more popular, I prefer the original Prince of Persia game, in which you had to fight through twenty puzzle and trap filled dungeons in order to find and defeat the evil Jaffar to save the Princess. A real life Disney Movie (Blaah!) is being made and released next year, so here's hoping the Prince pulls a Chun-li and actually makes a good Video Game Based movie.
At Number 8: The Zelda series: Featuring Zelda: A Link to the Past.
A game that makes you think? Madness! But it's true, there is a game in which brains come before brawn, but not by much. Zelda was made by the mastermind of Donkey Kong and Mario, Shigeru Miyamoto (I'm certain I spelled that wrong.) and stems from the idea that you can think about what to do, instead of mindlessly plowing through levels. This game was also one of the first to use the save system, as the game was massive for it's time. A Link to the Past was a reboot to the seies after 5 years, which more gameplay, richer graphics and a redone score from the original Zelda games. The Zelda games are still going strong today and is just as popular as ever. The only downfall? It's a thinking game, so that turns off many players. There are rumors of a live action movie for this game as well, but that is just a rumor.....for now.
To be continued in my next blog with Numbers 7-5!
College- Tomorrow begins a new chapter in my life as I begin college. I so anxious, but I'm ready! Wish me luck!
Injury-I may not be on as much as I normally am this week, as my Nephew fell on some concrete steps and got a fracture in his skull yesterday evening. He is okay, but it gave us a hell of a scare. The bleeding was outside of the head and the fracture is small, and so far, no permenant damage is visible, but they are keeping him for a few days to keep an eye on him. I'll update you all on his condition when I get the chance.
Question of the blog-Pizza is like heaven for me. What is your favorite thing to eat when you get the munchies? (God, that is the dumbest question I've ever asked. I'm running out of ideas.
)

I wish you well as you embark on this new part of your life. Have fun (not too much) and get lots of sleep!
Poor little guy. I hope he gets well fast with no permanent damage at all to his little noggin.
When I have the munchies I usually eat cheese, sour cream & cheddar ships or tacos.
