  360 Graphics Card Fried

  As the title says..

  my 360's graphics card has fried, in the middle of a MW 2 game, and when the 360 is turned on, I get nothing but rows of green squares, or artifacting as it's known, and I must say... I'm sadden. Thankfully the 360 repair will be free, but... seriously... What rotten luck, right? This is like the 3rd time I've ever had to send my system in... I guess that's somewhat lucky compared to some other people I knew... *sigh*

  So i'm 360 less for some time, at least I have other games on other systems to play, yet ... still...

  News: Job Interview Tomorrow, and... maybe it's not alone?

  So hello dear friends,

  I know I've been very absent. Truth be told, I don't come on the computer much anymore. Spend so much of it doing homework and stuff, I just cannot bring mysself to be on this anymore than I need to sometimes.

  So, while there has been quite a bit going on lately. I just want to say, I have a job interview tomorrow! It's at Gamestop, so ... we'll see how this one goes. It's a different one but one I did apply to last year and get an interview with. The guy remembered me when I walked in, and so far his view on me seems positive. So hopefully that will help! I was afraid him remembering me would be a bad thing, but I think I'm prepared!

  Also, I got a voice mail today, saying that UPS will be having a interview session tomorrow? I dunno what's up, but it told me to come tomorrow at 10, or other dates. Well ok, it's not a interview session, it's more an "overview" or something. I dunno what that means, but the kicker here is...

  I don't know WHEN this voie mail came in. See, the voice mail just randomly came up and my phone showed I had a voice message but no miss call. So.... I don't know why that happened (it's not the first) but basically I got a missed call but never recieved a call...

  I'll check it out though, hopefully I get a job soon!! Gahhh!!!

  And with that... a bit of gaming news... my gaming sessions hava been sporadic. I haven't had any real time to play it. I've just mostly been with my girlfriend, we've been together 9 months so far! Things have been really great and I couldn't have asked for a better person. She's amazing! So... yes, my gaming time has been somewhat limited, but not in a bad way really. We've played games mostly together, so it's been different things. Silent Hill 2 and 3, LBP, Soul Calibur 4 with us and friends, and other games that we're just in the mood for. I don't miss not being able to game much, since I have no new games really, and I'm not tired of Dissidia just yet hahahahaha

  However, I would LOVE to get Uncharted 2... maybe one day... or NSMB Wii as well. Someday I'll get some new games, but for now I'm ok with what I have.

  Latest News Update- Dissidia Owns!!

  So how are you all?

  I know it's been quite a long time since I've updated, but I want to let you all know I'm not dead. I'm just a little too busy to have time to get on the computer for work. Lately, I've been doing the whole school thing... you know... homework, studies, classes, and so on.

  Other than that, I'm trying to find myself a new job, because the season is coming to an end, and I've yet to find another job unfortunately. I'm hoping something comes up soon! I really REALLY need a new job.

  So in gaming news, I recently got Dissidia Final Fantasy as a gift from my girlfriend. It's awesome!!! I mean, seriously this has to be the best PSP game ever. At least for me, because in all honesty I never had any interest in a PSP game as much as this since Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (and the new MGS interests me just as much.)

  My brother also recently bought Halo ODST, I haven't bought the game yet, but I have a free month card for LIVE, so I'll be using that soon to play some Halo and Blazblue online very soon. I haven't touched ODST yet, because I've been too engulfed with Dissida.

  In other recent news, my girlfriend will be living VERY close to me soon, and I cannot wait. It will be really great because we'll be able to spend more time together, so this week I'm helping her move out and move in nearby. Other than that, things have been going very well in my life, and I do hope to be more active here soon, or at least in gaming, but I'm just busy trying to find a job.

  Also a little personal update, my dad had lost his job about a month ago, but now he's starting his own business in the city of Pasadena. They've got the place and everything and their target date to open is Novermber. This should be interesting, I'm hoping it will work out for us because a lot is indeed riding on this. My dad worked at Lexus for 20 years, but was laid off (stupid economy) but now he's taking a chance at something. He'll be opening a repair shop in Pasadena, and I'll keep you all updated.

  Other than that... take care! See you guys next time *goes back to Dissidia*
