Baka baka. ;_;

Eboooooolaaa. We'll be fine.

Playing Titan is the next thing I think I'll do whenever I get bored of the Warlock. And that sounds about right about people perfecting their roles. That even happens in regular Strike if it is hard enough. The Raid is just much more specific from what I've read.

I was in a shitty mood to begin with but yeah. I'm finding out that I'm just not healing as fast as I used to (Children's bodies are quite remarkable in being surprisingly robust). I'm still rational enough to punch a door frame to avoid a hole in a wall. Maybe the house will collapse during the next earthquake. Who knows. Either way, it just feels better to punch something or do something physical. It's odd. I think I got worse with time while my older brother got better with time. I don't think I would attack someone though...

Yeah... I pulled it just enough to concentrate it to my pinkie knuckle.

So the landlord got paid gardener to come in to trim the "backyard" every week or so. Motherfuckers tossed my hanging orchid. It an orchid mounted to a branch and has a fucking metal hook on it. It is by random chance that it is there along a bush? Did they not fucking see the other plants in the vicinity? I have no idea where I will get another one. The only place I know is all the way up in SLO. The orchid guy in the local big farmers market doesn't seem to be the type to do that kind of stuff. Hell, he fucking dyes his orchids. God fucking damn it gardeners. I almost guarantee that they hardly or doesn't speak English so I have no idea if I can even vent to them the next time they come around. Bleh. Whatever. It's just a plant... that I was looking forward to bringing back to health after getting scorched by the heat down here (It was hanging by the building. 100 degree + sun ray on a building = damaged plant). I'm done. I just needed to vent. Edit: Don't punch walls. Especially if you purposely aim for a hard spot (corner) so you punch a hole into the drywall. I think I broke something...

What changed?

So time for the grind to level 30. Man, I really need better weapons and armor so that I won't get raped in level 24+ strikes and such... like, Winter's Run Strike. It's a tough one especially if you have an incoherent team. I;m not sure if I'm going to try to do the Queen's stuff since I don't think I can commit too much time after today (The real grad school starts soon...). The above was pretty much all this weekend. I got home around midnight and well, grinded till morning. Today I actually went till noon... So to use my time wisely, from what I recall, I should level up my Vanguard or whatever levels so I can purchase the good stuff? Edit: I also need a better handcannon in my life. A scout rifle has the range but it is missing the omph of the handcannon.

In a perfect world, I would be able to play with you guys on the PS4 but no... Doesn't one of you guys have the PS3 version?

This is just something I came across regarding DDR3 and DDR4. In short, stick with DDR3 for now. Any improvements are indeed marginal for DDR4.

So my impressions after sleeping on it. I'll be using the terms that my group used last night. Also note we had a lot of liquid courage. Spoilers since it is quite an unique experience.

The term they are looking for but are failing to grasp is "cute". Of course, little Sally is a big girl so cute isn't the word to describe her.

I should switch credit card. If I could nab a GTX 970 for around $200 I would be so fucking jelly. I would do both PS4 and the GTX 970 in the same buying period.

Wiping it seems to have made it better. It was either an app that went haywire or it may have been an update that went sour.

I'm PTing with a group of people. Holy shit. Banter and jokes makes it so much more bearable. Watching. I can't imagine doing this alone.

I guess this is what I get with a refurb'd Note 2 (After I broke my last one with a drop) or maybe the fabled 2 year lifespan on phones is real. My Note 2 in the last month has been acting funny. The screen will every so often become unresponsive and the phone in general is VERY slow or have glitches. For example, if it is responsive, I can type but it won't show up on my screen (though it does show up as inputted judging by the word predictor). I'm so waiting for the Note 4 to drop now because fuck this shit.

A state if left to form that will be a breeding ground of terrorists. Think of the Taliban Afghanistan but worse since IS' founding principle is to very antagonistic to non-Sunni Muslims who do not follow their ideals. They are very cut and dry when it comes to their beliefs... very cut and dry. We have a choice of striking first or wait for the next attack. The US and their allies are choosing to strike first which I have to agree with. Though I'll reiterate my feelings about the US going: I have a feeling it'll be a very long rabbit hole we are going into (Imagine if we are stringing along the Turks, who's are really the boots on the ground, with promises of making their own state then crush that dream? That an easily created fucking enemies for a hundred years.). Really, the US has been at war in some form or another in the Middle East/Afghanistan for pretty much my whole life. Frustrating to think about really. Anyways... the IS cannot even function if we leave them be since nobody recognize them. They don't have a China who will send them humanitarian aid and they don't even accept humanitarian aid since they fucking kill the aid workers. At best they become the 2nd North Korea, a mere nuisance, but one that can potentially engage in sending terrorists everywhere. In any case, the IS might just devolve into a lawless land. Think Yemen but bigger and, again, more dangerous. My face:

Solid gameplay with the structuring of rewards that leaves something to be desired... not to mention the story. Why Bungie fucking separated a good deal of the lore into the Grimoire cards that can only be accessed on Bungie's website, I don't know. I was confused* what the fuck the Hive were in relation to the Fallen. All I knew were the Hive looked different than the Fallen and they fight each other. Then you had the Awoken race which I play as. Where the hell did I come in? The Grimoire cards explains/clarifies it all. *Another honorable mention is the part where you first talk to the Speaker during that cutscene. By looking at him, I knew he was important but I didn't know who the hell he was but now he's talking to me about being a goddamn hero that must fight the Darkness. The Hive places on the Moon man. It felt like I walked into Minas Morgul and I'm Maldalf the Black. I have yet to get to Mars, Venus or the Reef. I look forward to them.

I haven't tried to use the shotgun for ranged kills but it seemed normal for me (I didn't mod it for long range though so there is that). You know what was bullshit (as far as games goes)? Battlefield BC2 shotgun with a slug. I counter sniped a sniper from across the map with one before. The bullet had barely any bullet drop so it was more or less point at the enemy pixel and shoot. Fucking glorious for me but I bet the other dude was fuming. For Destiny PvP, I have been using it the old fashion way. In your face full blast. If that doesn't do it, a melee to finish the enemy off. It's the same thing that I did in Halo 2.

I need to get to the late game like now. I'm not even done with the Moon and I'm already level 16. I must serve my Queen.

Not really a trailer but a reveal... After thinking about it for a bit, I'm just going to say that I am disappointed and well, there isn't much more to say than: What the fuck?
