Of school, broken chairs, and video games
14 years ago
Wow, school has been kicking my ass. I signed up for 13 credits this term, and each class is giving me LOADS of homework @.@ ... I find myself having to do my homework as soon as i get home, just to keep up.
In other news, my good old Office Max chair broke, because instead of welding the metal underside of the seat, to the hydraulic column, they glued it, and the glue failed. The neighbor across the street was kind enough to offer to weld it in place, and I accepted, but the heat from the weld ended up destroying the hydraulics and the button that controls it @.@ Ended up having to get another one (also from Office max, but this time with their insurance thing)
Also, video games! Even though i still haven't beaten fallout: NV, I have gotten my grubby paws on Dead Island and Civ 5.
Dead Island- a very fun (if sometimes glitchy) game... but ALAS!!! It gives me motion sickness! I haven't had this kind of motion sickness in a while, and its depressing to find out I didn't overcome it. >.< I still might try to play it here and there, but... I am le sad.
I also got Civ 5, and holy crap its a lot more addicting than I thought. I mainly got it to see what all the fuss was about (and because accursed steam put it on sale for 75% off- damn them and their wallet draining deals!!!) GREAT game... but every time I have played it... I haven't been able to finish. The first time, the game glitched out @.@ and the second time, my computer pulled too much power or something, and blew a fuse @.@ very aggravating.
So, busy wolf is busy.

FA+

I got saddled with 18 credit hours on my first semester of college. Things did not end well at all. x-x GPA took a hard nose-dive.
I'm in Electrical/Computer Engineering right now, figure it can't be too far off with basic requirements.
Not sure I'll be sticking to it though.
and dead island is on my must buy list. so im very envious. ^^
