Ins@nity Complex

It's been a while since I posted a real post, so surprise, here’s one now!

Not a huge lot has really gone down lately. College is same old stuff. Going along fine.

I'm currently training for a karate competition on 25th November. It's a team competition, not something I've ever had luck in, so I'm not expecting big things.

This coming Wednesday is the open evening at UCH (University Center Hastings). Basically it’s an arm of Brighton University based here. They do run a course, which follows on from the National Diploma in Computing at both Hastings and Brighton, but it's the difference between having 130 people in a class at Brighton and 16 people in your class at Hastings. The one to one tuition means Hastings has typically better results. I'm not 100% sure if its the course for me yet, but I'm having a look anyway.

In gaming news, I found an absolutely awesome deal on Amazon. Dirge of Cerberus for £17.99. At that price, I don't frankly care if it's dog shit. I'm quite surprised marketing for the game hasn't started yet though. In fact, Square Europe seems to pretend it doesn’t exist. It almost seems like they want to release it quietly because of how bad it is.

Either way, it should arrive on either 17th or 18th, depending how good Amazon is. In other gaming stuff I need to put more time into Kingdom Hearts II and my sister just walked in having purchased Disgaea 2. Disgaea is an anime and game franchise I've heard of, but not took any interest in. Anyone got any thoughts on it before I try it out?

I'll finish of with this video sent to me by a friend. It shows the Kyokushinkai England team training for an upcoming competition (I'm not in the video). It's interesting though, and certainly shows you guys what the fighting side of karate is like. Enjoy.



EDIT: It was Jenny's 18th birthday party yesterday. I just want to say, bouncy castles are still awesome at this age. Yeah, we are all that immature. :P

Who did no one tell me you got to fight Vivi (including a battle with multiple Vivi's) in Kingdom Hearts II? Vivi rocks my widdle rocks.

Anyway, yesterday was my 18th birthday, and thank ye to everyone who wished me well. I guess I should list some of the booty I got so you can all dribble.

- Kingdom Hearts II (PS2)
- Trauma Center: Under the Knife (NDS)
- Metal Gear Solid Digital Graphic Noval (PSP)
- Serenity DVD
- 128MB MP3 player
- Lobster 575 mobile phone with £25 credit
- 3 DVD-RW Discs
- Lots of mummy money
- Lots of chocolate

So yey me. I haven't had much major time to spend on Trauma Center yet, but Liam had a fair play when he came round yesterday. His comments after playing it was "I need a DS". Which shows you just how good the software is.

In other news, now finally 18, I handed in a CV at GAME. I hope I get the job because it really is one of my preferred work placements. For a start, my knowledge surpasses most of what their employees know ten fold. And as an extra bonus.... you bet your arse I'll get a Wii on December 8th if I work there.

And in other, other news, complaing apparently works. Remember my complaints about the college and lack of computers? I wrote a very angry but also polite letter to the "complaints department" (I'm worried they have a complaints department frankly) and got a rather shockingly fast response. Lets hope they do somthing...

Oh, btw. Only 4851 minutes till XD launches.

EDIT: As stated above I have a new mobile phone. If I don't have your number or you want my number, contact me via Fantasy World, AIM, YIM, MSN or e-mail. Cheers.

If I could have anything for my birthday, what would I have?


A Segway obviously...

So I haven't really posted any photos of me in quite a while and seeing as it was Liam's 18th birthday party last night I though I would post a few snaps up here.
