January 2004 – Page 4 – skylerbartels

I started reading the New Jedi Order last nite. It’s pretty good. Somewhere in this series Chewie dies. So It can’t be that great.

What did I do last nite….. oh, yeah. I sat up and played Final Fantasy X-2. I’d like to beat it before school on Tuesday, but that won’t happen. This morning I played it again for a couple of hours and then watched an episode of Buffy. On to disc two.

I don’t think I’m doing a damn thing today. I’ll listen to Jackie Cane again at some point, but I don’t know why. Maybe because it friggin’ rules! Yeah…

I’m so happy to see some folks did my damn survey, which is funny because no one does those things. If that wasn’t for chicks, though, I don’t know nuthin’ no more.

It’s 2004. That means no LOTR, no Matrix, and no Star Wars. This would be horribible, but there will be some Spider Man and Kill Bill action, and lets not forget that Half-Life 2 will come out this year, so that’ll be aaaaaaaaaaaaallrite.

What else, what else… Well, since it is the new year, its time once again for…

Cosday of the Play!

Here we’ve got a guy dressed us as Cid, and another as Seifer They look allrite, and the Cid gets mad props for the mop.
Seifer: 7/10
Cid: 7/10 +1

Anyhow, see you fools later!
