Video game? Me? WHAT?!



While he's been gone the last two days I've been playing his Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword and I'm finding myself extreamly drawn in. I've even made i past one of the temples!!! (seriously, this is a miracle!) The only ever game I've ever gotten anywhere in was Final Fantasy X, and that was mostly nostalgia for when Joshua was a whole person. (I quit playing when I couldn't figure out how to get through one of the temples or whatever they're called there. Little did I know that the interweb would've told me how to get through it x.x.)

So, back on topic, I've always considered first person games rather stupid. I enjoyed the ones you play with partners much more. But... I guess I get it now. Having a game guide, having watched Taylor play most of these levels, and having the interwebs helps keep my interest.

Though I was about to throw in the towel twice today. 1) fricken big spiders that I couldn't get past! (I texted Taylor my frustration and directly after beat it.) 2) Stupid rope vines that I couldn't swing from one to the other. I reread the guides, watched some online videos, then finally texted Taylor my frustration. (right after which I was able to get across. -- Seeing a trend here anyone?)

Though I do need to get down to work now, there's so much to do.

Also... I need a surprised face avatar.
