hm

remember this?

i don't really understand why i've slowed down watching game of thrones but the further i get into the series the worse my apprehension got. like, when  i first started i watched the first episode and half of the second on the same day. i'm now on the 6th (?) episode and i've only seen half of it. and that was a week ago.

yeah well, it got worse. i've actually straight up quit the show because i can't take it anymore. i was almost in tears over a scene between joffrey and sansa and that was the final straw. i convinced myself to do one more to end on a better note but i'm probably not going back into it unless i decide to read the books or have a change of hearts. after seven episodes too.

in other news, i saw the dark knight rises last wednesday and i loved it. when i came out of the theatre i was positive that, and i quote, 'i'll watch this as much as i watch the dark knight when it comes out!'. looking back, that probably won't happen. i mean, i loved the movie a lot and i'm still thinking about it almost a week on but i'm positive that i won't watch it as much as the dark knight. by the same token, i'm not gonna not watch it except as background light when i sleep like i do with batman begins.

in other other news: i finally got around to watching the original modern warfare. it was good. i didn't like it as much as mw3 or black ops, which i've also watched again recently. i didn't cry during either, surprisingly

note: i've started reading blogging the hunger games on zach little's blog so here's a link to that

(game of thrones spoilers)

over the summer i've been trying to do some things to make myself get off the computer for a few hours. initially i had started watching game of thrones, as well as starting tron uprising (though i'd been planning on doing this for a while). after a while i noticed that tron is the only thing i kept watching consistently. i don't really understand why i've slowed down watching game of thrones but the further i get into the series the worse my apprehension got. like, when  i first started i watched the first episode and half of the second on the same day. i'm now on the 6th (?) episode and i've only seen half of it. and that was a week ago. and i actually made it worse by spoiling things for myself by reading the tvtropes pages for the books. i know i'm afraid of getting attached to the characters but it's not like i'm gonna skip out on seeing the dark knight rises because i don't want to see the characters get hurt. 


i noticed that i did a similar after i read the hunger games. the book ends on a slightly bittersweet, but altogether happy note. i knew that things would get shitty in catching fire and at the time i refused to start it because i didn't want to ruin the moment. i figure it's the same thing except instead of getting to the end of the first season and not wanting to ruin the end, i'm trying to savor the calm before the storm (storm= ned stark's death). sometimes i wish got had come out before i became more emotionally available, because i'd be waiting for season three like everyone else, or at least on the second season.


sorry about the long ranty post and the long absence. this has been bothering me for a while and i wanted to say something about it. i probably won;t be posting much more because i'm on vacation right now


mood: generally happy but also a bit nauseous idk

and no, i haven't finished uncharted yet

i finished mw3 last night, and i have to say that it has a pretty satisfying ending. i know a lot of people complained apparently? but i liked it enough. maybe more of the main cast could have lived though the story, but that's just war i guess.

but yeah, on the other side of things, that game is really good looking. the graphics are a+. and almost half of the game took place in or around water, which really boosts the aesthetic level for me. i was worried about them toning down the colors from the last game but it worked completely. just great

but now that that has ended, i'm back to watching uncharted again. i also finished the sh 4 lp and started the sh origins by the same girl.

i don't know if i'll be able to post this weekend, because i'll be at my dad's. if not, have a nice weekend guys.

i've taken a break from uncharted for modern warfare 3. it's absolutely beautiful so far. after this i'm gonna keep going with uncharted and then find time for the original modern warfare. the mx3 links below are for the IGN walkthrough, without commentary; and the lp i'm watching, which has commentary but also has better HD

Modern Warfare 3 (let's play)(walkthrough)

wow i'm really boring this april. probably because i'm not bitching about disney channel and abc family.
but anyway, i've paused my uncharted marathon to watch some silent hill 4. this is probably how i'm gonna be for most of the month, so i'll link you to whatever i'm watching at the moment.
