Stuff, stuff and more stuff
Today was my last day of school for the term and for that I am especially grateful since this term was a particularly stressful one. Admittedly I have several assignments to work on over the holidays but I guess that I will just have to deal with that. Most of my holidays will be filled with video games, movies, Internet videos and homework, not the most exciting of holidays but it suits me just fine (except for the homework bit). So now that schools done for a for weeks a realize that my last year of school is a quarter of the way through and while I am excited to be leaving next year, I'm also incredibly sad because most of friends aren't going to the same university that I want to go to, well technically it's not a university it's a film school but it's the same thing, I've known most of my friends since my first year of high school, some even further back and I know that I'm going to miss them a lot. Some of my friends are going though so a least I won't leave them all behind.
Speaking of going to uni next year, me and a few of my friends are going up to the school that I wanted to go to next year for a taster course. It's over a three day period, so me and my friends are going to stay in a motel down the road from the school, it should be a lot of fun with the four of us hanging out in the big city together and maki g films together since that something that we all love to do (it's the same city I got lost in last time, go figure). Also, I'm going to be up there Monday through Thursday, so I really don't know if I'll be able to get my post next week. I could do it from the motel but I don't have a laptop or anything so we'll see how things go.
Recently I've been getting into Final Fantasy and I've noticed something about the series, mostly its fondness for giving it's characters ridiculous weapons. For example, one guy has a sword that's almost as big as he is and he isn't big and strong or anything, in fact he's quite scrawny, another guy carries a gun blade (which a sword with a gun built into it), a talking cat that rides a robotic moogle (it's like this troll, gremlin, thing, that resembles an adipose from Doctor Who) and a guy who fights his enemy's, with a volley ball. Yeah a volley ball and he's actually one of the strongest fighters in the game, go figure.
Anyway, this got me thinking. I take an art design class in school and one of the things that we can do in the class is character design and I wanted to do something that was kind of a parody of final fantasy (and rpg games in general). So I came up with a group of charactermthat carry around some of the most ridiculous weapons that I could think of. Like someone who fights using a stool and another guy who fights with a door and another guy who fights with a ridiculously large pair of scissors with guns built into them (cos hey, why not?). Not really sure if my teacher would let me do that but at coming up with the idea amused me.
Kayla, in answer to your question, my favorite Avatar the last airbender character would probably be Zuko. Mostly be cause I found him really interesting, well that and he's awesome. If not him then either Toph or Iroh. Also, I have not seen any Legend Of Kora episodes, their always slow to air them in New Zealand. I was just gonna wait for them on TV but I think that I will just have to watch them.
So anyway, have an awesome week guys
DFTBA
