Random things.

Been awhile since I threw a comic on here. So here!


Great Grandma was placed in a regular room yesterday, and is on the road to recovery. She'll be able to go home.. ...eventually anyway. It might be awhile, but it's a positive thing, I suppose.

Tonight is my usual DDR night (Dance Dance Revolution), so to speak. Actually, it's more like, ITG night(In The Groove, a more customizable and difficult version of DDR). I like to play it at least once a week to get myself some exercise. Since a friend of mine usually can get me free games, it's a source of free entertainment and exercise. Yeah, I know it sounds stupid, but it's better than sitting to play video games, and a bit more fun than normal exercise. Good cardio work-out, haha.

Got a bit of a headache and my left eye has been twitchy at times. I wonder if it's because of how much I am in front of the computer, heh. It happens occasionally, usually in spring, so I'm going to make a guess it is due to allergies with all the rain and weird heat we been having.

I entered a Dragon Quest 9 "Fashion Show" on a Dragon Quest fansite for a chance to win DQ9 action figures about a week or two ago. Out of the 4 characters I submitted, only one made it to the finals. A shame it ended up in 5th place... 2 more votes could have gotten it to 3rd, enough for an action figure.


 These are the four I entered: The Poor Hero, Untitled (Two above, left to right),  The Pimp, and Vivi-alike (Two below). Only the Pimp made it to the final round.


I don't think I really mentioned this often, but I actually am quite the avid Dragon Warrior/Quest fan. Played the game series since I was 5 or 6, one of the first video games I played. Even played two of the versions that didn't make it to the USA in full Japanese using a walkthrough as a guideline. Though now one of those two have made it to the USA on the DS, and rumor of the other coming soon.

I been playing Dragon Quest 9 since it came out until recently, where I started getting back into fire emblem games (Let's Play's of them made me want to try challenge/specialty runs, such as killing all story related characters, excluding main character). I suppose it is to be expected after playing the game so much that I'd want to play something else.

Speaking of other games, I was playing Archipelago Remastered on BYOND, but got bored of it quickly. I got my revenge on people that were assholes to me when I was new, and pretty much got nothing much else to do now, haha.

Yeah this update was all over. Just had a lot of different things to say without any real reason. :P

  3. @Naj: The way the contest was run, anonymous people couldn't vote, only people that have been to the forum for awhile was allowed to vote. :X But I'll keep that in mind for any other future contests, haha.

  4. Well done DQ characters you have there. I'm still waiting to get around to Dragon Quest 1 for NES. It might be quite some time, but eventually, I've promised myself I'll play through that game. Another buddy of mine swears it's one of his favorite games ever.
