Well it's the middle of July. I haven't created a blog in a little while so I thought I'd leave an update for you. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince has been released. I haven't seen it yet, but being the Harry Potter lover that I am, I'm stoked to watch it when I can! In terms of things going on with my life, nothing too eventful has been happening. I'm still searching hard for a job, but I was lucky enough to land an interview with K-Mart that is due next week. Wish me luck, I really hope that goes well! Once I get a job on my hand, I will be able to start earning some money that I can use for college, gas money for my car, and just purchases all over the place.

There has been some recent good news however. I received my AP US History score in the mail yesterday. I actually received a 5! I had a feeling that I would pass, but I didn't expect that I would receive a 5! I'm really proud of myself, and I'm looking forward to the load of AP classes that I will be taking under my belt during my senior year. Well I'm glad that I got that class out of the way so I don't have to take it during college. I passed my AP European History exam in my sophomore year, so that's two exams down, six more to go.

In terms of gaming, I've been playing Brawl a little bit more. It's been enjoyable, but pretty much the same. Does anyone else want to plan online who I haven't played against yet? I've also been trying to play Strikers: Charged a little bit more. I really forgot how much I enjoy that game, and I'm happy that I've been playing it some more. Other than, I actually went to Hollywood Video the other day. I heard about a sale that was going on there that's unbelievable! They're selling all of their used games ($30.00 and under) for only $5.00 a piece!! So with that, I drove quickly to stores all over my area to see any bargains. Unforunately, most of the Wii games were gone but I happened to stumble upon Resident Evil for the GameCube. I was really pleased to pick up this game for cheap, and I'll be playing it soon. My brother used to own this game as well, but like the idiot that he is, he sold it. Well, I'm glad to be getting some games out of the way on my purchase list.

REmake

Apart from that, I had the Gold Status on Club Nintendo. So I was pleased to be able to redeem my reward of a 2010 Calendar from Nintendo. That's more than enough to make me happy. I love calendars, and now I don't need to worry about purchasing one for 2010. Though if I was a Platinum member, that Mario hat would've been pretty damn cool.

I am going see Harry Potter later. Can't wait it has had some amazing reviews

@PJ24: Wait a minute ... I think I remember you talking about that once. Man, I really wish I got that game for free!

@dan_scfc: Yeah, the reviews I've read and seen for it were all positive, though I've heard some people had problems with it. I guess we'll see.

@GC4Ever: Even Resident Evil 5? Heh, very nice. I've thought about getting the other ones for GCN but ... I've heard they're not great on that system.

Congrats on the test result. I presume a 5 is good (no idea, I'm from Australia remember, and here a 5 in our final exams would mean you failed miserably ) so congrats as I said before.

@daqua_99: Lol well I guess I failed in Australia. But a 5 is actually the highest score you can receive for college credit. A 3 is just passing, but that's the lowest score in which you can receive credit.

hope u do good in ur interview

I'm interested in getting the Resident Evil remake but I'll probably wait for the port coming out on the Wii. I'm getting the calendar as well since I received Gold status on Club Nintendo. I'm actually glad I didn't go all the way to Platinum because I'd rather have the calendar compared to the other two rewards
Posted Jul 19, 2009 5:49 pm PT
@Mr_Pepworth: Thank you. @Platyphyllum: Yeah I agree -- the calendar is cool, but it's more handy than the Mario hat. And cool, I hope you have fun with the Wiimake when you get it.
Posted Jul 19, 2009 8:57 pm PT
Harry Potter is pretty "meh", so I'm not going to watch it, but I'm still looking forward to hearing how you liked it! And congratulations, ace the rest of those tests too!

I guess I could Brawl you, even though I haven't touched it for 6 months.. I'll just need to unrust! Just shout when you wanna have a go at it!

The calendar I'm getting will be one with Tekken art, but that's a sweet one too! Some of those images I'd love to have on my walls!
Posted Jul 21, 2009 4:47 am PT
@Hav-Q-san: Heheh, I see, well, you should give the series another try. And thank you! Heheh, I noticed that, well at least, I still have your FC on there and you still haven't registered it yet. And cool, Tekken is great!
