Not that bad honestly, I feel like I'm going to miss school once i graduate. Longer school hours= more memories. Once you start working sh*t gets real. In school you work for yourself and your own grades. When you go out to work, you work for your family and to keep your boss happy enough to get a raise. No breaks until lunch, no switching between classes, just sitting at your desk doing work in your cubicle staring at the screen.

It shows you aren't strong enough to control your own emotions and stop your own banel thoughts and actions.

First it would take too long and cause too many deaths, which are avoidable, to set up the infrastructure to work as you wish. Second...it's the supplies not being given to the people that need it due to corrupt local governments etc that is the major problem. Third, you have to remove that problem to make the first point achievable.LJS9502_basic

And when the food finally reaches the people that need it, what do the farmers do with the crops that don't sell because the west keeps sending free food? Heck, it's already happening to the farmers that try to make a living there. If you don't farm what other stable job can you do there? You can't really build all the high tech equpiment when most of them barely get any education. We need to focus on letting them develop their own economy without our intereference.

Here is the way I see it. While it was always in our good intentions to send food to Africa so they don't starve, we are also in effect killing their economy. Think about it in terms of supply and demand. Because nations send their food to Africa, there isn't a real demand for paying for food. This in effect kills off one of their potential markets, which is a huge for underdeveloped nations. Imagine you are a farmer in Africa trying to earn a decent living, but find out you can't sell your corn or rice because foreigners have given it away for free. What job is there that you can make a living on? There is barely technological development there. You can't build cars or even more high tech equipment when you can't even provide the basic needs for your family. They need to learn to walk before learning to run. Of course, the government isn't helping them either. Any food stand or stand in general has to pay high taxes to prevent themselves from getting stormed out. Yes, it is cruel to not send them any food immediately, but doing so would also be just as cruel in the long run.

Honestly, the best way is to just leave them alone and let them heal themselves. Think about it like this, the African government is counting on wealthy nations to send food to their populace to calm them down. If we don't send them food, the citizens will eventually uprise and overthrow the government. Too many lives are at stake for them all not to. The will for survival is best tested during times of great need. If African citizens want to survive through this famine they will do whatever they can, even if it means their life. Think about the long term effects of your actions and not only the short term gain.

Worst for me had to be Wolf's Rain. I have a friend who loves it to death, but most of my group says otherwise.

Honestly, I thought the first game was really awesome. I liked how EA expanded their horizons and created something so unique. Whenever I think of Mirror's edge I think of blue skys, white buildings, and red pipes. I found the game to be very aesthetically appealing. The game does have it faults though, there is no denying that. It seemed like towards the end, the developers got a little more sloppy in the pathrunning and it got very frustrating in some parts. However, it seemed like the main part of the game was well fleshed out with a decent story line. I honestly believe it is a bit underrated. For example, Mirror's edge is described in GS as a modern fps, which fits under the same category as the Call of Duty series. I believe that mirror's edge expanded the genre and thus enriched it more than COD has done with their recent games. I would be happy if they improved on the faults I listed and flesh out the story even more. It doesn't need to change its natural image to appeal to the public.

P.S.

Faith is hot!

If Pong had a storyline, it'd be a 10/10 in my book.
