| Lots of video game playing: what every Friday night should be |
[sep. 2e, 2006|15:40] |
I am getting settled in at college. I have been here two weeks now,
and I just finished my first full week of classes. I do not have much
homework and, so far, my classes are easy. I am not expecting that
to keep up, but I am taking a rather light course load (16 credits).
Last night I went to DDR club for the first time. There was too long
a line for the metal pads (Cobalt Fluxes) to play very much,
so I mostly played SSBM. I was definitely out of practice, but after
a few rounds I was doing okay. I even won one round. I think the people
there are better than me, but not by very much. I'll just have to
practice more. :-D
After DDR club ended at midnight, I headed back to my dorm, where
I found some people hanging out and playing Soul Caliber 2 (XBox)
in Chris's room. I watched a few rounds and then played a little.
Chris has a rather large collection of movies and games and he
brought a XBox, PS2, GCN, N64, and SNES. I thought I brought too
much stuff.
After that, I wandered back toward my room and found Karren and Brian
playing Warcraft 3 (arranged teams on BNET). That was fun to watch.
Karren was nice and calm and moving at a reasonable speed.
Brian was moving really quickly. He just kept clicking the mouse
button. It looked like he did every action at least three times.
He kept cycling through all of his unit/building groups.
I think he used to play Starcraft tournaments when he lived in Korea.
I was just watching, but I will probably try to join them some
other time.
I actually got some homework assigned sometime late last night,
so I am going to do that now.

I have not really written anything here for a long time. So, here's a quick
recap of my summer vacation: I graduated high school. About a week later,
I went to China. (I think that was covered pretty well in my past few entries.)
I was home for another week before heading off to Long Island, where
I stayed at my friend Peter's house for a few days. Peter was my roommate
last summer at Harvard. Erin, our mutual friend, flew up from Austin to hang out
with us. That was a lot of fun. Then I went to Montauk to vacation with my
family for a few days. It was not great weather, but we went to the beach anyway.
After that, I was home for about three weeks. I pretty much just hung out with
friends for a lot of the time. Then, on August 18th at 3:00am, I headed off to
Cornell.
I got to Cornell at 7:25am with very little sleep. They did not let us start
moving in until 8:05.
I had a week of orientation stuff, and then classes started on Thursday. I have
met a few people (or at least saw them once and friended them on Facebook)
and pretty much know the people on my floor.

So, uh, who has not seen POTC yet and would like to see it?
BTW, I am back home and will be finishing the China journal entries soon. All of the photos are up now. |
