Randomly, a few things to say...

[jackofallgeeks]

Curtis, Chris, and I went out to the mall yesterday to get Soul Calibur 2 for PS2, though for some reason they plan on exchaning it for the GameCube version within two weeks; we just don't have our GameCube yet. I donno, I used to be a huge Nintendo fanboy, but they've recently really soured me, and I can't say exactly why. Curtis thinks they have great first-party games (ie, those made for Nintendo, by Nintendo). I would tend to disagree. -shrugs- I'm becoming more of a PS fan, now.

I ended up buying GTA3 from Chris, and picking up Bloody Roar 3 from EB. Now I need to get a PS2, for when I move out...

Seeing Leslie and Louis this weekend. Need to call and reserve that room at the Holiday Inn... Plan is, I believe, to have sushi and such Friday Night. w00+ I hope things go over well. Louis and Leslie are both buddies of mine who, when I see them, I get along great with them, but while separated, we seem to become really distant... -shrugs-

Also, apparently Ms. Becky C. is living at home for college, which means that she'll be around while I'm down there, contrary to what I'd thought. I was planning on stopping by their house while I was in the area anyways, but now I'll have to see if maybe I can't get some piece of time to spend with her...

Jenny (my sister) wants me to visit her, too, and I'd like to visit her as well. She works all weekend at Busch Gardens, but she says she has two free tickets to the park, and I could bring someone along and hang out there most of the day. I'm thinking I wanna see about heading down that way next weekend, and it'll prolly be one of my brothers I go with... Anyone else that I'd want to spend a day with, well, it could get awkward...

I had most of a banana for breakfast today. That's more than most mornings. I had wanted to make a real-type sandwich and grab some iced tea before heading out, but my over-night virus scan found a trojan on my system, and that's not good. I ran out of time before I had to leave for work, but I should be able to finish running the cleaning tool when I get home...

And as a final note, one of the communities I'm on posted a link to this Presidential Candidate Selector, which I found moderately useful/interesting. I'd actually be interested to see what candidates those who read my journal would be most inclined to support (that means, fill out the form and leave a comment to let me know what you got). 'Oddly' enough, my number one candidate (at 100%) was G.W. Bush. Go figure.

We can have sushi whenever you like. I think you'll really dig Kyushu (where I'm taking you boys). Leo will take good care of us. ::grins:: The sushi is really fresh, and the slices are thick and yummeh. Is there anything else you'd wanna do while you're here?

On that Presidential candidate thing, I got Governor Dean Howard, a Democrat from Vermont 100%. I've never heard of this guy, but reading a little about him on the info page, I tend to agree with a lot of what he says. Aside from party affiliation (I don't tend to like Democrats or Republicans very much), what he claims to support and what his voting record shows him to support sound all right by me.

Yes'm, I think Sushi and such is a wonderful idea for Friday Night.  ^_^  as noted, I would like to get over to see the Crofts, which means I'll prolly have to leave louis with you on Saturday or something... Of course, Becky is having orientation all weekend durring the day, so we can hang out and stuff for the whole day with no snags, and such. as for what else we plan on doing...? I honestly have no idea. -laughs- I've never been much of one for creative ideas on how t'spend time...

That's cool. I'm sure Louis and I can find some way to entertain ourselves while you're away. ::grins:: But yeah...I can't think of anything to do, really. Uhm. I guess we'll just have to play it by ear. Whatever we do, we'll have fun.

Uhh...I have Soul Calibur 2...

-laughs-
Rock!  \m/ ^_^
So do we, here at my apartment!
Nightmare's still my No. 1 favoritbut a couple of the smaller, faster ladies (who's names escape me at the moment) are also really cool.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

You mean like Talim? She's pretty cool, but if you mean Cassandra, I have to come up there and beat you. Anybody related in any way to that bitch Sophitia needs to die just as hard as she does.

Ivy's still my lady, and Kilik's still my man. Yessir.

[jackofallgeeks.livejournal.com]

Actually, yes, I was refering exactly to Talim. She's my second behind Nightmare, followed close behind by Taki. If only I could learn how to do anything really cool with them...

And, y'know, I can't really say I have anything against Cassandra/Sophita. in truth, I think the fact that she's Greek/Roman gives her brownie points. I don't think she's much my fighting style, but...
Now, Xianmina or whoever she is, she needs to die.

We will play, yes'm. And I'm thinking of bringing down Bloody Roar 3, too, as I wanna see what it's like and such.

You mean Sueng-Mina? (Even I'm not sure of the spelling, but I think that is accurate.) But she uses a spear, and she's cool, and she uses a spear. How could you not like her?

A-hem. I guess I need not say that I absolutely kick Smurf with Sueng-Mina.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

Seung Mina is cool. She's like Kilik's counterpart. I like her a lot.

I think maybe he means Xianhua. She's an annoying biznitch in part 2.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

Ewwww, Taki. The only person I hate more than Tacky is Maxi-Pad. And maybe Ass-Cloth. >__<

Nope. Being Greek doesn't give those bitches nothin'. There are cool Greek people and then there are Greek people who suck, and Sophitia and her little sister are most definitely in the latter category. They put hands on face and say "Oh, woe is me, I suck."

I'm gonna assume that by Xianmina, you mean Xianhua. Right? Chick with the sword who says annoying crap?

[jackofallgeeks.livejournal.com]

Yes'm, I was about to reply to Gene and make the correction -- I didn't have the names righyt infront of me, but Xianghua is definately who I meant. "Says Annoying Crap" -- you know you can turn off the English dub, yes?

-laughs- Hey, I like greeks. -shrugs- No, I don't think I can say I really have anything against Sophitia or... uhm... The Other Girl Who's Name Escapes me. -shrugs- Like I said, i wouldn't play them, but...

And, actually, Taki's not that bad. She's a little... below my tates, generally, but she helped me own Curtis' Xianghua when he found that Nighmare hates cheese...  ¬_¬  And I actually have a little respect for Maxi (who sucks with range, but moves pretty fast) and Astaroth (who, aside from being a Nightmare Wannabe, has a pretty cool name, and some devastatingly hard-hitting range). But then, that's just me.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

you know you can turn off the English dub, yes?

You know I speak Japanese, and thus what she says in Japanese, being the same as what she says in English, is still annoying as crap, yes?

[jackofallgeeks.livejournal.com]

-laughs and laughs-
Actually, no, that never occurred to me!
I'm so very sorry. I guess there ARE benefits to being linguistically blind, eh?

It also never occurred to me that they would actually dub the same words. I suppose it's more feasible in a Video Game than in Anime and Movies, which I'm used to.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

Well, it doesn't happen often...usually they just get the jist of things. But in Soul Calibur 2, anyway, they got it just about spot-on for everybody. Sometimes it sounds pretty funny, though, ie, Kilik's hastily spoken "Sorry!" from "Warui na!" - which, while it technically does mean "sorry", carries a slightly different connotation behind it than the English word "sorry" can fully convey.
