Guys guys guys

( rampant speculation )

( so sexy )

Goddamn it Nintendo. I wanted a black Wii from the start. And now I'll never get one because Nintendo hardware will outlast nuclear apocalypses.

(I was kinda busy at work, and didn't have time to clean this up to post until now. Not that it matters to 99% of yous.)

( Nintendo stream of consciousness at work, wot wot )

( Sony stream of consciousness at work, wot wot )

Someday I am going to own a computer that can do this.

Very uneventful E3 conferences. You guys can just ignore everything (in parentheses). Seriously there's not much worth looking at here.

( Wow, and I thought Nintendo was unexciting last year )

Eck. You can tell how uneventful Nintendo's conference was by the fact that half of my comments are me snarking on the presenters.

( Fortunately Sony saves the day )

+.12 or something BMI, because I had Burger King right beforehand. (We had to use those scratch-off stickers offering us free shakes!) But somehow during the workout I lost .02 BMI which was enough to make the game freak out about my weight having changed a little.

Unlocked the advanced aerobic stepping today, and it's tough ^^;; At least, when you have to go sideways and rapidly switch orientation. I'm sure I'll get used to it tomorrow though since it's always the same routine (I think).

We also got Rock Band and I spent way too much time on that, considering I have homework for tomorrow. Which is why I'm up writing this now.

P.S. This guy is awesome, he makes "realistic" paintings out of children's art.

-.28 BMI, but that's because I didn't eat much before the weigh-in. Still not even back at baseline...

I was a little bit stiff all over today, especially my feet because they get the most strain trying to keep balance when I do anything standing on one leg. (No wonder I wasn't great at figure skating.) But I'm not particularly sore or anything.

My balance (or at least posture) is quite a bit better already. I'm getting top high scores on nearly every yoga exercise, even on the ones where I thought I didn't do well.

Hey ctrl_a, remember how we I was hopeless at running in PE? Today I jogged for 4, and then 10 minutes straight. Granted, jogging in place is much easier than actually running over terrain. But it also helps to have cute little distractions like "Crap, I just got passed by Clinton. And Hard Gay."

Gotta go to class soon, so gotta cut today's exercise short. It's still 40 minutes but I would have tried out more activities if I had more time. Also push ups and sit ups.

On retrospect, it's pretty funny that I just walked into a (fairly popular) GameStop in the middle of the day and they had about a dozen Wii Fit boxes displayed on their shelves. Towards the end of my transaction suddenly 3 or 4 housewives materialized behind me and started talking about "that's what I'm here for too" and how it was sold out everywhere else they looked.

+.48 BMI (still barely under overweight!), but that's because I had eaten shortly before starting the game. Went for longer today because I unlocked more activities to try out.

Sux: I wish the board has an A button so I don't have to keep picking up and putting down the Wiimote.

Doesn't sux: The trainer actually points out your weaknesses so it's not just working in front of an exercise tape. Yes ma'am, my hips did indeed drop while push-upping, and I can't imagine what arcane magic that balance board just used to figure it out.

Awesome: While Wii-jogging, I saw the Joker chasing a puppy. Also Obama cheered for me. <3

Forget Zbrush, this is where it's at.

I won't tell you the numbers, but I've been letting myself go lately. Nintendo says my BMI came in just below "overweight", so I'm aiming for 15 less pounds in 3 months. Let's see how quickly something starts to happen on 30 minutes a day.

Lesson one: I am an even more massive failure at push-ups than I ever have been before.

Lesson two: However, jogging with Reggie and Iron Man (and puppies) is fanturbulous.

Maybe I should make a Putin mii...

It's go time, bitches.

Edit: Hit me up on AIM if you see me. Unless I'm in class.

A slight update. Little bigger this time:


( Warning: seriously over-rambled Smash nerd-ing below. Seriously, you won't know what I'm talking about. )

To make up for that awful nerdrant just now, here's some fanart. Oh god how I miss fanart

I'd spend time to color this, but it's not gonna get me a job.

And I thought Peach's dress was complicated last gen... =_=

...ek.

Welp, time for a revamped cosplay.

Brawl got re-delayed, which is okay, but now it's coming out on 10th (more-or-less finals) week of this term.

I promise I'll post the entry about why I've been dead within a week.

Holy crap, the cutscenes for SSBB adventure mode are beyond AMAZING. I am crying on the inside from awesome ;_; (Edit: So going to make boyfriend play the character I don't pick)

Speaking of awesome, Okami is confirmed for the Wii. I will be buying the $^&@ out of that game. Again. (Anyone want my PS2 version? ctrl_a, superpan? :P)

Edit: Also speaking of awesome, the Street Fighter IV trailer is a remarkable work of art. Too bad the game is highly unlikely to look anything like that. But if it does, it'd definitely be something I'd look into despite being no good at any fighting game without the words "Smash" and "Bros" in the title.

Smash Bros. Brawl delayed to February 10th. Sad, but it will be SO WORTH IT.

loobywibble, that better give you enough time to get a Wii and get it online ;P ;P ;P

Edit: Will also give me time to actually play Mario Galaxy :x

Since ling84 seems to think I'm dead, I'd better let you guys know I'm not.

First, Sonic is officially in Smash Brawl! ...Snake is cooler though.

And now, the mystery of sculpture guy solved:


In your face!


How does he do it??

P.S. If someone can tell me what Link is doing to/with Zelda in this video (Edit: in respect to the game. Is that a taunt?) then you are better than me.

On Monday, I was waiting in the dead-stop traffic at a highway onramp, and I saw a motorcycle 2 or 3 cars behind me topple over.  (Not an accident, probably just lost his balance.)  Within a couple of minutes at least three people jumped out of their cars to help him up.  It was quite the upside to the irritation of traffic making me late for class.

( Hey look we made some Miis! )

My Wii is finally online!
