What with the end of the summer and karate tests and research presentations and all that I've been busy.

So here's the salient points:

I recently earned my green belt, and my Karate is officially one year old as of this week.

I also went here...

Hampton Beach New Hampshire. Our hotel was the Ashworth by the Sea and we had two TVs in the room, a huge main street view of the whole beach and boardwalk and a giant deck to walk out on. Best thing of all was that we were less than 100 feet from the beach shore, and there was a fireworks display right in front of our room across the road. 1 football field separated us from the most intimate and best fireworks I've ever seen, and I've seen some of the best in the world.

I am going to see this man :

Live in concert here at UMass at the Mullins Center on Oct 25th. Cannot wait for that. His new album is amazing by the way.

My gaming life has consisted of :

Yes, I know IGN = 6.6

The demo made me want to have this game. Mostly because I like running into some guy and running up his chest and back flipping while planting bullets in his face in slow mo. Most Demos turn me off. This turned me on... that didn't come out right.

Best thing to happen to Batman besides the Dark Knight.

For a game that I couldn't get into at the start, I'm 50+ hours in and am enjoying it now... don't know why.

And yes, Halo 3 ODST is already prepaid.

Anyways, I've been so busy with work that I haven't had time to post regularly. And now its time to get back to the grind.
