  Schools out for summer

  By out I mean in, and by summer I mean 8 months.

  It started on Tuesday, but todays the first actual full day.

  Sad face all around.

  New classes, new teachers, new amigos,new senoirita with my eye on her in a non stalkerish fashion ...

  ...

  Roger that.

  This new semester of mine consists of Socials, Planning, Physical Education, and English.

  Socials started off with....wait for it...a Test!

  In fact it was a portion of the Canadian Citizenship Test. 30/100 questions or so.

  24/30 Woot!

  Planning is looking to be a pretty slack class. Ive got a few friends + that senoirita in it so its not too bad. Plus the teacher isnt a dick at all. She's aware that its a boring class, and she doesnt take it overly seriously.

  P.E. = same teacher as last year which is cool. Our class is really small, maybe 20 people. 13 guys or so and 7 girls. We be playing football

  English is meh, it looks like we've got a long ass year ahead for this one, lots of work and homework and worst of all..learning. Frick!

  My best friend also isnt in any of my classes for the whole year. Not just this semester, all year. Bummer.

  Socials - Small Class - Win

  Planning - Big Class - Win
  
  Physical Education Small **** Yet to be announced
  
  English Full House Blegh>
  
  Till next time gang
  
  good day>

  Gosh darnit!

  Sad news everybody

  I returned Guitar Hero 2. I got stuck on Hangar 18. After 12-15 consecutive tries, I just gave up. It wasnt worth being frusturated over, so I thought it best to stop. My record was 90%, damn.

  Not all bad came from Guitar Hero 2. I learned how to do hammer-ons. With this now in my arsenal, I tried my luck at Rock Band. Not all bad came from it. I finally passed Highway Star. That goddamn ending solo part screwed me over for too long, but it was actually quite simple with hammer ons. I also cleared Flirtin' With Disaster, which I couldnt quite remember what I had trouble with. I think there was another part that simply needed hammer ons. Go figure.

  All of this aside, I tackled Green Grass and High Tides. MASSIVE hammer on parts, much to great for my 1 day of training. Red yellow blue yellow red yellow blue yellow red etc. for 30 seconds.

  Now i cleared the first one, much to the aid of star power. But theres another part that I think goes yellow blue orange blue yellow blue orange blue yellow etc. for 30 seconds or so. Cant handle it...yet. Maybe after some intense practicing, maybe.

  So with two major disappointments, both of which couldve turned out worse (I was so pumped my heart was racing incredibly passed and I was running short of breath, now you see why I returned GH2) Im going to look for Guitar Hero Aerosmith perhaps. I like Aerosmith more now, and I figure I HAVE to be able to beat that. The hardest song is Train Kept A Rollin, which is one of my favourite songs on Rock Band. Shouldnt be any problems there.

  Worked so hard today, this morning I had hoped I would beat Rock Band. I had to wake up early and move mass amounts of furniture for carpet cleaning. I worked a 6 hour shift, then came home, ate dinner, and worked putting things back and setting things up for 2 and a half hours or so. Bummer.

  Ranked one in my friends leaderboard for Castle Crashers Level 42 with a nifty little skull in the top right.

  And now for a new feature that may or may not like.

  gameshark5's fun fact of the day:

  Is your beverage so fizzed that you just cant possibly drink it? Fear not! Rub your fingers on your forehead, and dab your fingers in the fiz. The very same grease that causes you to break out is the very same grease that will disolve the foamy cloud sitting atop your drink.

  Try for yourself and see!

  Some stuff/Inquire

  An update from my giantbomb blog, I was playing some more Castle Crashers today, it is fan fricken tastic. Worth every penny of the 15 dollars I spent on it.

  Last couple levels are quite hard and the last boss is a complete tool in a really pain in the ass way.

  Then I unlocked Insane mode which gave me a nifty little skull on my character icon. Its pretty fricken rediculous. The first mini boss thing takes ages to kill and the little arrow spamming dudes can seriously kill you.

  And frick the first real boss, my god. Levels you in a few hits.

  Guitar Hero 2 is possibly coming to a halt. I tried psycho something billy and failed towards the end, so ill try that tomorrow. I really wanna beat Free Bird.

  What else..Bionic Commando isnt going very smoothly. I get stuck on a level, try a few times and usually fail. In this case I got to the boss and lost unfortunately.

  Guitar hero 3 wise, I FINALLY beat the devil on hard. I survived 55-70% of the song and killed him.

  School starts on Tuesday insert sad face. I got a backpack for the first time in 2 years No more carrying around a 30 pound binder full of crap for a kilometer and a half walk every day. Woot!

  Well thats all for now I think, I won Okami a while ago, superb game. Best 3rd party Wii game ever, second best Wii game ever.

  Oh yeah the inquiring bit. Feel free to ask what you want and I shall repondez asap.

  Good day gents and maams
