Do you own a Wii? Yeah? Did you get Mario Party 8? Yeah? It’s fun, isn’t it? Hell yes it is. That is..until you play the Star Battle arena. The two rounds were easy..but the third round? Un-fucking-believable. After getting their asses stomped for two rounds straight, the motherfuckers has taken it onto themselves to fucking cheat. And not just the subtle type cheat. But the very obvious type where they’re not even fucking hiding it.
At the third round, I’m competing against them in the Haunted Mansion map. For those who’s played this, you know what this map is like. For those who don’t, it’s where there’s about 6 rooms, and no maps. Of the 6 rooms, one of them has a star and the other 5 leads you right back to the beginning. To make it harder, once the star has been reached, the star will randomly pick another of the rooms to show up in. So, it’s very randomized and hard to predict where to go to get the star.
Here’s how the cheating comes in. The computer pretty much rolls all high numbers and heads straight for the room with the star. No fucking bullshit. I watch the computer use a thrice candy (allowing him to row three times), rolls a 20, walks and makes 3 decisions (cross paths) and heads straight for the star room (when there are 5 others undiscovered) and picks up the star. Immediately following, he’s back in the beginning and rolls only 8, 9, or 10 and heads (once again) straight for the motherfucking star room again. Beats me out 2 stars to 0. If I see him following the same path I’m on, then I’m on the right trail…but will I get there in time? Hardly. I tend to rolls 3’s to 6’s on this map.
Am I being paranoid? I want to say yes. But after playing that level 8 times straight and losing it exactly the same way…I can’t say I am. I’m left to stuck guessing which way to go while the motherfuckers KNOW which way to go. If you guys don’t believe me, give it a try and tell me what happens, cuz maybe there’s a bug in my version of the game.

I went to Starbucks tonight to get my usual Manga Passion Frappuccino fix when I was told that the world’s gonna end. They said, “I’m sorry, but we’re out of mangos.” !!! In China?! OUT OF MANGOS IN CHINA!! OMIGOD~~~!! It is the END OF THE WORLD!!!
But that’s okay, I settled for a Raspberry flavor instead. All in all though, today was a good day. Spent all day with my kawaii wifey and making her smile and laugh. It was good. We ended the day with going to dinner with Joel, Yazid, and Haitao. Then as we were leaving the restaurant, we saw how busy the streets was (about a thousand people trying to leave the area….with only two roads out…can you imagine that?!) So we walked around the lake and then sat by the lake enjoying the cool breeze which warns us of an impending doom…err….rain that will be coming tomorrow. After waiting for about an hour, we started to head toward the car and lo ‘n behold!! The street was still crowded. What would you expect from a bunch of people that usually only think of themselves, right?
So, me and Nancy decided to walk back to our apartment while enjoying the view and burning off the night’s dinner. It was such a fun walk. We walked and joked around and everything. It was great. What was even greater was that Nancy noticed a bunch of girls looking at me and giggling. She pointed them out and we looked back at them and they were just staring at us and giggling and everything. It made Nancy hold on even closer.

Been awhile since I last wrote, so it’s time to update!!
Today, I got a lot of stuff done. So proud of myself. I went to my friend’s business place and gave them their gifts. Finally, after I’ve been here for two months, I finally got them their gifts. Sheesh. So lazy I am. I also went and help my co-worker pay his credit card, since he had to work today and I have today off, so…yeah. Took care of that.
My biggest accomplishment for today? It would be finally finishing Transformer: The Movie. I’ve been watching it on and off for about two weeks now and I finally finished it! Woohoo! I thought the movie was awesome! It was soooo coool. In fact, I liked it so much that while I was working on the company’s intranet, I hid the Autobot icon into one of the images on the site. Hee hee hee. I wonder if anybody will find it. 
Other than that…uh…I’m still working on the Intranet and loving it. PHP & MySQL! YEAH!
