To see me made her awful

It's been a week/weak and I still make bad decisions. Tonight was a pretty bad night but I'm still smiling and I'm really, really not sure why. But rather than dwell on it I'm going to talk about the good things that happened instead:

I found a new singer by the name of Regina Spektor - she roxxor my coxxor. She has good lyrics and a good voice and I love her. Not all of her songs are great but none of them suck. If you trust me go check out - Oedipus (my favourite) Us, Field Below, Samson, Fidelity.

I went and saw Over the Hedge with my older brother today. I saw it for free and that's the only reason it was worth it. It wasn't terrible but only because there were some genuinely funny moments and also because I guess it was probably aimed at kids.

I've been playing Area 51 on xbox and it's ok for a first person shooter. It reminds me a lot of Halo, Half-Life and Far Cry 2 so it's pretty generic feeling really. At the start of the game there was no power which forced you to use your piss-weak flash light. Combine this with alien ambushes and you had a pretty exciting game for a little while. Unfortunately after you restore the power it reverts to standard shooter. It's not even a hard shooter what with the liberal scattering of health pickups. There's an alternate attack function later in the game which should be exciting and fun but isn't. It's not actually a bad game, it's just not a stand-out. I also have Mortal Kombat and Brothers in Arms to play when I'm done with Area 51 (check my mad rhyming skillzors).

I sent my friends an email today asking them essentially to evaluate me as a person. So far the results have been interesting. I like it when they say bad things about me. I'm going to use their responses in an artwork I think but so far I haven't decided what yet... I also need to ask the other people in my studio (besides Vess) I think. Pesto wouldn't gimme answers but I will subject her to the crime-busting stare and hopefully results will be forthcoming.

I am done for now. I should probably write more regular but meh...

Sometimes I'd stand by the royal walls, the sky'd be so big that it broke my soul...
