Finalist & Distractions

First, there was a tag-team tournament albeit a small one. Went into it with my friend who played Ryu while I went ahead with Abel. Somehow managed to be one of the 4 teams in the KO rounds. We beat our opponents (Gief + Honda) but lost in the finals (Abel + Akuma). Not too bad coz we still got a free dinner in the end and the level of play was high. I enjoyed myself.

Surprisingly, I've already qualified myself for the Sony Tournament on the 31st of October. I managed to win out in the KoF XII tournament using a team of Kyo-Kim-Andy. Funny thing is, Kyo was supposed to be my worst character but he was the one to pull me through. Also managed to get first place in Puzzle Fighter for some strange reason but since I already qualified, the spot went over to the runner-up.

With all these things coming up in addition to my CFA exam, I wonder how I'll be able to cope. Actually, I'm pretty happy I'm so busy. I need the distraction from... thinking. I'm slowly regressing to my earlier state and all I can hope for now is that all these events will be enough of a distraction to pull me away from my thoughts.

My Xbox Died & CFA

Yup, my Xbox died. RROD. I don't think its very serious but I need to get it fixed and I'm so lazy to do it. Not to mention that my SF4 DVD is stuck inside and is probably a goner by now. I'm not sure if I want to spend another 200 bucks on a new SF4 if my Xbox is just going to die again. Not sure if I should get a new Xbox or not.. something Asian coded this time so I'm not screwed over. Stupid Virgin Megastores, bunch of liars.

Oh yeah my CFA is coming up in 2 months time... feeling screwed, haven't started studying seriously yet. Don't think I have it in me to start so soon but I need to pass this, promotion is on the line. Why can't money motivate anymore? Sigh... not to mention the SF4 tourney is at the back of my mind and I'm not even up to par yet. Geez so many things to think of. Plus, its getting close to the end of the year.... .... .... I don't know. I don't want to think about it.

Tag team is Off

Aw heck, no tag team tournament as planned. Instead, we have a mixed tournament of SFIV along with some other SF4 titles. I'll be playing in most of them just for kicks but SFIV will be my main focus.

Right now I'm busy juggling between work, study and training. Its pretty much 30%, 10% and 60% at the moment. I really need to get focused on my studies or I'm going to end up failing. I need that promotion dammit!

Too Many Games! & SFIV Tag Team Tourney

The games are just piling up! Damn SFIV for being so interesting! I have pretty much dedicated most of my time to getting better at Street Fighter IV so I don't think I'll be finishing games at a fast rate in the next 6 months. At least until the SFIV craze dies out of me again. I did finish Mario Galaxy though, was quite fun, challenging too. No wonder it got game of the year. I'll talk about that some other time in a bit more detail.

Alright! SFIV Tag Team tourney! Definitely going for that... now if I could only get my partner to start training properly. Hope he's at least sparring at night. Damn what am I saying I'm the one that needs to improve! Gah! Alright Abel, intensive training you and me hut hut hut....

OMG PATCHES!

Got myself a 1-month old kitten the other day. Its so cute! I have a little tiny animal mewing after me where ever I go now... it likes to pounce on my foot and sit on or next to it after, how adorable is that? When I feed it, it eats, then climbs on my lap for a nap. Or it plays with its toys, then pounces on my hands and feet and nibbles. Aww... I love my cat.

King of Fighters XII & Another SFIV Tourney!

I'm a long standing fan of the KOF series, having played it consistently since I was like 12. I've played all incarnations of the game (some I liked, some I didn't) and it would only be fair to say that SNK Playmore have produced a fairly poor to mediocre game.

Why? Hard to pinpoint... is it the really pixelated graphics? When you compare it to SFIV, its really really poor. They should have just stuck to 2D.

Is it the lack of stages? Well, maybe, but I don't really care about that.

Is it the gameplay then? Well, yes, probably because it feels so so clunky and the way the screen zooms out at different distances disorients me so much.

Is it the lack of characters? As many as SFIV for sure but KOF was always about the 40-50+ characters.

Is it the lack of a boss? I mean, KOF DEFINED the boss syndrome term - maybe they want to get rid of that stigma?

Either way, KOF XII is not that great. I mean, IORI SUCKS NOW! Sigh... if you are a fan, get this game if you want to feel disappointed. 3/10.

Now, on to the interesting stuff. I'm gonna go for another SFIV tournament this Saturday at 1 Utama from 12am to 5pm.... maximum 60 pax at the tournament. I think last time the tournament reached 50+ so this time around it might probably reach the max amount. Its going to be loud and exciting to say the least, certainly drop by to play or if you just want to watch you're most welcome I think.

Its getting closer and closer...

... and I'm feeling more and more angry that I'm not allowed to feel angry about it because it was all my fault for being an idiot.

No More Heroes & SFIV Mini Tourney

I like No More Heroes. I liked Killer 7 too. Because its weird. And I love weird. I mean NMH was really over the top weird, full of funny and unexpected twists and turns. It detracts from the main premise of the game but detracting from the main premise is probably the main premise of the game itself. Confusing you yet? Don't worry, the game is much like this. Decent gameplay and nice track offset the sometimes passable graphics but the design oozing coolness shoots this through the roof. 8/10 and that's being conservative.

Went for the SFIV mini tourney at Cineleisure yesterday with a mate of mine. It was quite fun, didn't manage to win but at least I made it to the finals after a few epic matches. From then on, I'll always imagine Abel vs Zangief in the same way I think of Neo vs Smith or Vegeta vs Goku or sth. It was truly epic. Lots of close games and audience support made this a fun outing. You can read more about on the SFIV site.

M&M (More & More!)

Damn I'm getting flooded with games to play.... there are a bunch of games I want to play but haven't gotten around to getting it; Smash Bro Brawl, Silent Hill 2, 3, Origins, Homecoming, Dead Rising among many others. On top of that I still have all the previous games which I haven't finished as yet. I've technically finisehd RE: Umbrella Chron but I'm trying to get S rank for each stage on each difficulty so its taking me quite a bit of time. Mario Galaxy is 1/3 done, think I have 48 stars at the moment. Played some Ninja Gaiden 2 from chapter 5; its so damn hard I'll consider it finished if I actually play through the rest of the chapters. Haven't really touched the other games yet, but I will eventually.

Played SF4 a fortnight ago after stopping for nearly a month plus. Now I remember why I got so hooked up on the game; its really fun dammit! Ugh if I return to playing SF4 again there's no way I'll be able to finish my collection of games. What's more, KOFUM98 is coming out for the XBox360; I won't be buying it myself but damn will I be going to my friend's hse to play online. Geez I need to set some time off to finish these games.... lessee I have 15 days leave left....

CFA Classes Begin...

I've taken up Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) classes recently, taking up 6 hrs each week. 2 reasons why I took this course: one, it fits my job scope which involves some financial analysis and statistics. Two, its completely free and paid for by my company without any bondage required. The first part of the course costs a whopping 8,000; who the heck has that kind of money unless you're a CEO or sth? Its crazy shit... and there are 3 courses in order to gain the full cert so that's like 24,000 down the drain. Plus you have to pay a set fee each year to retain the cert. Sigh... its true what they say; you need money to get more money.

Thus begins the 2nd half of the year 2009. Its all going fine so far... but as the days go by my mind starts to wander to one particular thing. The feelings came slowly at first but now its starting to return in full force. I'm not sure if I can take it even now. What am I going to do when it finally comes? I have no idea what-so-ever... though if I can't bear it even now, then what the heck's going to happen to me when the time comes?

Me n' My New Wii & Half Year Roster Time

Got me self a new Wii... its actually awesome! Well maybe I'm overating it a bit but when I got my Xbox 360 I hardly had as much fun as I just did with me Wii. Been thinking about how to juggle Xbox 360, PC and Wii games with work, social life and sports but I guess that's what taking leave is for eh?

With that I have a new roster for the next half year to complete. I recently finished Prototype (on hard mode, with 93% completeness of the Web of Intrigue: guess I can close the file as finished) and Wario: Smooth Moves. Still have loads to go and I'll be working my free time off trying to get those finished. Here's the list as of today:

PC
1. Dawn of War II
2. Tomb Raider: Underworld
3. Legendary

PS2
1. Front Mission 4
2. Wild Arms 3
3. Persona 4

Xbox 360
1. Dead Rising

Wii
1. No More Heroes
2. Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles
3. House of the Dead: Overkill
4. Legend of Zelda
5. Mario Galaxy
6. Trauma Operation

So Not Working Out

Yeah, well working out doesn't really seem to be "working out" so to speak. Much too busy doing other stuff like sleeping. So I got myself a Wii... I mean its the only logical way other than playing sports to keep myself fit, or at least my arms fit, everyday. It seems to be working so far; my arms are aching like hell from all the playing I did yesterday. Or maybe its just the badminton. Still, I think its a good investment, it reminds me of the good ol' days when gaming was actually just for fun and didn't involve things like achievements, endings, competition and what not.

I want to get a hamster. But I don't think I have the money left to get the cage, feed, shavings and the actual hamster itself. Guess I'll have to defer that plan to a later stage of my life, maybe just slightly above getting a house and a car.

CFA classes start this Wednesday... I'm so tired of that studying shit. I thought those days were long gone but I guess I still have another 3-4 years or so to go through. I mean, studying as a student is alright but I'm doing part-time studying while working: wtf. I barely had anytime to rest even after finishing university.... I have no i-fucking-dea why I'm so rushed to do all this. Sigh.

Working Out

Man am I getting flabby. All those months of playing SFIV at home and not getting any exercise has taken its toll on me I guess. So I've decided to start working out, restart my sporting activities and to eat less. I work out at home for about 30-60 min a day which is good. Plan to start playing futsal and badminton with my colleagues when I can, really have put that off for a long time. Eating less ties in with spending less which I really need to do... I haven't saved anything last month and probably won't this month either. Results expected by the end of next month at least if I keep this up which is a good thing.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica

Finished RE:CV yesterday after replaying it twice. Gameplay is good but compared with RE4 and RE5, it pales in comparison. Still entertaining though and a challenge if you've never played the old REs before. If you have, this game is a synch; ammo problems? I ended the game with like enough ammo to take down 100 zombies and the end boss. That and the fact you can run away from every boss except 1 (2 to be exact but its really the same guy). Item management is the difficult part especially since you switch between Chris and Claire without warning but that's really a small part of the game. Voice acting and the script were kinda lame but then again RE was built on bad cliches and funny acting right? Everything you love but the original RE series, but then again that was like a decade ago.

7/10.

Ugh...

Ugh 5 months down the line now and I'm still feeling it. Time heals all wounds but the actual specification of "time" here didn't really state how long a time-frame is needed here... Well with my daily 'hate' therapy I'm sure I'll pull through some how, don't you worry.

No new games

Nope, haven't started any new games in a while. Been busy with gambling, SFIV and other things which has prevented me from finishing any of the games I really want to play like Dawn of War II. I guess I'll start on finishing games again soon, maybe RE: Code Veronica... I miss the old RE style of gameplay.

Oh yeah, I've actually started working on a "How to play Abel" blog. I'm no expert at using Abel, I just needed a place for me to put down my thoughts on how to beat ppl when I actually learn sth new to do so. Disclaimer: read at your own risk (of losing).

CoH: Opposing Fronts & Championship Mode

Finally finished CoH:OF, seemed to take me ages since I was juggling sf4 in the background as well. The game deviates slightly from the original CoH in terms of units but apart from that, it remains exactly like the original (capture supply points, kill base, etc.). Nothing much to shout about but a enjoyable game nonetheless. 7/10.

Championship mode came out recently, been playing it and posting some replays online. I have some rants/compliments for it tho:

Pro:
1. Losing doesn't lose you points, where else winning often would put you in the better player pools more quickly
2. Replay option is a really good feature, its fun just to watch matches sometimes (especially the better ones)
3. Disconnect ratio feature is a real deterrent to quitters; I basically don't play with anyone with a disconnect of more than 2%

Cons:
1. Replay feature only lets you upload replays if you meet certain requirements, and only for the finals. They should let you save the replay in your HDD anyway, and for all the matches (maybe seperate the 2)

Can't see that many cons but I'm sure there are a few more, just can't think what they are right now. Anyway I said I would post replays of matches and all but I think i'm too lazy to do that. What I will do is make the site for Abel vs xxx match-up tips, to help the ailing Abel players (which I don't think there are many anyway). If I have time anyway.

Oh btw, I don't know if you got my sms, but.. Happy Birthday.

More SFIV & Damn Work!

Played some really skilled SFIV players yesterday, man can they play. Every game had me at the edge of my seat, I couldn't take my focus of the game for even a second or I'd have gotten thrown/combo'ed/mixed-up. Next week I think the Tournament patch is kicking in, with the new replay feature and tournament style gameplay. I'm going to start keeping a SFIV blog to document each match, nothing fancy, just the vid of the match and some hopefully constructive comments of each match. Hopefully SFIV enthusiasts would find it useful, especially Ken ones as I'll be using him the most me thinks, apart from Abel.

AND ARGH WoRk is kILLLING me! I'm so sick and tired of doing my SR, there's just so much to do and so little time! Why spend the time doing this work when I could be playing SFIV?? DAMNNN lol.

Tom Clancy's End War & Street Fighter Madness

This game excited me when I first found out you could use a mic to order your troops around the map. What a novel concept! After a bit tho, it got tiresome; try barking orders out for 2-3 hours non-stop. Not to mention the speech recognition system sometimes gets it wrong (Unit 1, retreat *Unit 1 attacks Unit 2* WTF stop killing my babies!) so it can get tiresome. Apart from this little quirk, its an all round normal strat game. Rock-paper-scissors like. I heard the multiplayer was somewhat interesting but as far as I can tell its going to be the same as the single player, just with human players. While maps are beautifully detailed, the units and battles are just bland. Music is non-existent, sound effects are generic. 6/10.

Now on to Street Fighter. I'm a King of Fighters veteran, having played the game for some 13 years or so now. Along comes Street Fighter 4 and what can I say, I'm hooked. I've only played this game like 4 times now and I'm loving it. Maybe I'm just an attention whore, since the last time I played was at some Games Convention I stumbled upon and I started mixing it up with some of the best of them there. It was a good experience and it just keeps me wanting for more. I'll be getting the game today, hopefully will find some time to get some matches in every night and improve my Abel. I've got the basic movements and game down (not too hard since I am a master practicioner of the One-Button-Kungfu Style) so its time to get some experience on character frames and moves from some real fights. I main both Abel and Ken, Abel being the stronger character IMO just because no one knows exactly what the hell he can do.

Too Many Games & Birthday Wishes

Just a heads up of the games I'll be playing (and finishing) for the next 1-2 months probably. Could be longer, trying to fit in some solid game finishing here and there but SFIV keeps calling to me. I play a mean Ken Masters. His attacks aren't particularly spectacular or anything but he's efficient and gets the job done. ANYWAY... games I will finish here (in no particular order):

Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
Tom Clancy: End War
Knights of the Old Republic II
Resident Evil 5
Street Fighter 4
Soul Calibur 4
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
CryoStasis

Birthday coming up soon... should be good, plenty of friends around for a solid night out. Don't expect any wishes from "yours truly", probably busy with one thing (or person) or another. But yeah, looking forward to it. Its overrated anyway, I'm just using it as an excuse to parteh. Heh.

Street Fighter 4 & 32" HDTVs

I've played SF4 twice now and my first impression was: clunky. No way as smooth as KOF or Soul Calibur and no where as flashy. My 2nd time pretty much got me into the game... I think it has to do with the calibur of the competition you're playing with i.e. non-button mashers. There's a lot more depth to the game other than its flashiness and revamped graphics and it seems clunky but the clunkiness actually makes it fresh. Its hard to explain, play it for yourself and see. I'd still rate SC and KOF above this game, but this is a close 3rd. 7/10.

Got my new 32" HDTV for a low, low price so been feeling good. It looks SO good in my room right now, I'm in love with it. I've devoted myself to furnishing my room with cool stuff to have, and I'm going to redecorate it this weekend. Well, basically just shifting stuff around the room. And heck, I need the change, the layout has been the same for the last 10 years. Haha, it seems I'm starting a trend of changing things that have lasted for 10 years. Ah well. Anyway, next addition to my room: a bean bag. A black or silver or dark blue one. I hate green. My whole carpet is green, I wanna rip it all up LOL.

Shellshocked 2:Blood Trails & Congratulations

Another zombie horror game in the midst of it all, but the twist is that this happens during the Vietnam War (the US one). It plays out like L4D but the zombies are harder to kill; you need to headshot each one of them. Though there aren't as many zombies, it can get pretty rough especially when 5-10 of them get really close and start pounding on you. Its pretty crap to be honest, voice acting is shit, gameplay is your general FPS + zombies, graphics are just there, and audio is really bad. They even have generic death scenes for the soldiers! 4/10.

On a shorter note, congrats to you. Its a fine choice you made and I'm sure you are and will always be happy with it.

Gears of War 2 & Working Late

I went into this game with chainsaw bayonet revved and lancers ablazing. What I got for my efforts were a bunch of mixed feelings. While the game holds true to the same formula as it did in GoW, it kinda felt repetitive. Locust come up, you shoot it. Locust go down, you stomp it. Atmosphere is different too. COG is losing the war but you don't feel the urgency, the panic that should be felt. From the way things are portrayed, you just KNOW that they're going to win. The same trend goes with any typical movie (hero/heroine blows up villain(s) and saves the day) but its just so pronounced. I'm not liking the graphics either, the character models seems less detailed and more gritty in GoW2. Still a smashing hit overall, I just think it could have outdone itself a lot more. Maybe my expectations were too high. 8/10.

Talking about working overtime, I've been working till really late the last couple of weeks. My normal working time is late enough, but ending at 10-1pm everyday is really taking its toll. I'm not really complaining though, at least it takes my mind off other things. Besides, I wouldn't be sleeping at that time anyway, I'd probably be tossing and turning contemplating on stuff. Yeah, I contemplate a lot nowdays. Mostly on one specific thing. This month should be good I think, less work and more free time to get on with my free research (they gave me the freedom to do my own research! Woohoo!). Long weekend coming up too so its time to kick back and rest my laurels for a bit. Maybe catch up on finishing more games.

Work & Apologies

Got back from work real late today, about close to 10 or so. Really pressed for time as the high ups need to check on it b4 the results go out this Thursday. Top that off with some stupid factless news in the Star and you've a hell of a day. Will need to go in early tomorrow as well, and with my sleeping problems its going to be another longgg day... Bottomline is, I shouldn't be able to get any games done this week. But knowing me, I think I'll be finishing one real soon.

I need to apologise for any wrong I've done to the people I love and who support me in my everyday life, I know you deserve more from me but I can't help it. People can't help hurting other people in the process, its just the way life is. And when you get someone like me who can't stand hurting others, well, there's only one way it can go. Sorry.

Matrix: Path of Neo & Emails

Finished replaying Matrix: Path of Neo and realised how buggy and imperfect the character modelling in the game is. Gameplay is actually quite mundane despite the cool factor of fighting as Neo. I prefer the Matrix 1 levels compared to the rest, its more challenging and doesn't take the piss out of the series. No real game here, more like a run through an interactive movie. 4/10.

I got an email today. I didn't really have the heart to respond to it but for the sake of appeareances, I did. It got me thinking though; if I can hardly reply to the email, what would I feel when we actually meet face-to-face? I know two ways it could go down and neither of them are pleasant. Either way I'm going to come out hurting and its mostly likely going to be me and me alone. Its hardly fair.

I Never Saw Another Naked Intern That Yawned

Lack of sleep is killing me slowly. Maybe the yellow dog can help me. Also there's that piece of meat I want to beat up. But if I cook it slowly after that, it will be tender. Oh how sweet will be the meat when eaten with wheat. Wheat and sheep and ore gives you Monopolies by the way. Paladins need monopolies coz the man in the top hat and the big white moustache will send Mayfair and Parklane after you. That's like $750 worth of assets coming your way... surprise, cockface!

Incredible nightly sex always never interested the yuppie over, lets talk games. I have many to complete, 2 being co-op ones but with the lack of ppl actually capable of playing it, I wonder deeply why I even bought it. Ah well. I'm talking about Gears of War2 and Kane and Lynch. Currently getting down to finishing Far Cry 2 and Matrix path of neo, tomb raider: underworld is next up. Also going to try and get FEAR 2 outta the way once my friend ships it in this Wednesday.

The beginning of the end is the longest bit :(

Mirror's Edge & Chinese New Year

The focus on interaction in this "First Person Action Adventure" makes this game different from all the regular BAM BAM u daed games out there. Basically you're doing a Neo running from the agents in the Matrix except its mostly over rooftops and you're a chinese chick. Its pretty intense at times and the visuals and graphic theme is great. 8/10.

Chinese New Year has just officially ended today. Had the last gambling session of the night at my place, playing poker with the guys. My first CNY back home after 4 years or so (the rest was spent in the UK)... well half of it at least. Didn't get much angpao but its alright I'm used to it anyway. Somehow I have this feeling that this year isn't going great, what with the string of bad occurences happening to me lately. Happy Chinese New Year!

The Darkness & Markus

Comic book adaptation, FPS, weird ass gloomy gothic violent brutal powers. What more can you want? The game isn't difficult really if you play your cards right, even on Hard. Storyline starts off intense but tapers off towards the end. Graphic detail and lighting is good though. 7/10.

I was sad when I heard Markus passed away, but not surprised some how. Its always the good fellas who get the shit after all. And Markus was one of the best. I never met someone so passionate and devoted to saving his country and his people. I wish I had known you more, I took your life for granted. Rest in peace in heaven my good man, you know you deserve it.

Flash games & London

Finished some flash games recently. Their pretty good to pass the time and some of them are quite interesting. They only last for like at most 2-3 hours so finished quite a couple in my spare time. Can't really give a collective score but the ones I played were pretty good, from Armor Games. Check them out.

Been in London for over a week now, mainly to spend time with my sister for Chinese New Year. Also managed to hang out with my London mates over here. We had a blast doing all the stuff we normally do. Made me feel like I was in uni and young again haha. Leaving for Malaysia tomorrow, and not a day too soon. Its getting really really chilly over here, what with the Russian winds blowing into UK. Brr.

Trilby: The Art of Theft & Her

Trilby: TAoT is a treat. I loved the X-days adventure game series and getting a sneak peak at the early life of the game's protaganist makes me love it all over again. You have to wonder why he couldn't do all this stuff in the X-days games but then again, it is a game and we shouldn't really overthink it. A nicely done game, gameplay is exciting and keeps you coming back for more. Certainly calls for the perfectionist in you and is sufficiently difficult to make it a challenge. Kudos, 8/10.

Now, about her. She dropped the bomb on me some days back, and I haven't really recovered since. Its been going on for like forever and its about time it comes to an end. I realise that she never really felt like I did and we was only me trying to convince myself otherwise. I'm just the idiot that didn't stop trying. At least you can't blame me for the effort on my part. I sacrificed so much for it. Now, I've got nothing and its time to pay back on those "loans" I cashed in. I'll always miss you.

F.E.A.R: Persues Mandate, Catan & Stratego

Perseus Mandate was kind of bad as an expansion. It doesn't really help further the story, more like reiterating a weaker version of it. The horror scenes are so cliche and drab that I don't feel scared, I feel bored. The graphics are soso (same as the original F.E.A.R), music is normal, gameplay is as usual to F.E.A.R. For an expansion, that's really bad. Sad to say, 3/10.

Been playing lots of board games now days, what with the lacking quality of most computer games and the lack of funds to purchase new Xbox360 games. My favourite games at the moment are Settlers of Catan and Stratego. Both are really easy to learn and play with very simple mechanics behind them but the level of thinking required to play it well is high. Much like Chess. Try them both out if you're into that sort of thing.

Meeting up with my friend this Friday, its her last week here before she ships off overseas for studies. We have a lot of history together and we're pretty close so I'm awful sad to think that she'll be going off soon. Maybe its for the best though.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R & some "unexpected" news

Just finished stalker at 3a.m in the morning after getting stuck at one part in the game for like over a day or 2. The game is... really meh. Its an FPS trying to be an RPG-wannabe but failing at both. Plot and story progression is poor, with much left unexplained until the very end and even then you're not too sure. The endings are even more confusing and ambiguous, giving me much pain to say that this was not the game I had hoped it would be. 4/10.

Met up with a... friend... of mine today. She mentioned breaking it off but I could sense a sort of regret and pain when she said it. I want her to be happy more than anything so seeing her like that and being unable to do anything for her made me feel so helpless. Also made me realise some other things that got me thinking.

Happy New Year?

Happy new year everyone... no new finished games to talk about as I haven't finished any. Started quite a few but can't seem to get down to finishing them. Probably cause there is little motivation to do so but whatever.

New Year is here. Whoopee. Some how I can't feel elated about it what-so-ever. Probably cause I feel like shit right now. But who cares right? Its raining heavily right now, my fav weather. The rainfall is comforting somewhat.

I'll leave you guys to your happy new year. Who ever is reading this.
