Nostalgia Trip

Hey everyone,

So I have to get this out of my system!! I love giving myself "nostalgia trips". What do I mean? 

Well recently, I've been re-watching Sailor Moon! I'm currently on the Super S season. Sailor Moon was my first anime and first favorite anime. It still is. (As you guys can probably tell with my last post of me getting my Minako wig.) But no, there is so much to that show for us fans,

And growing up, my sister and I had a Nintendo 64. She and I played so many games on that console. And she got me into playing some games, which have been my favorite for a long time and I desperately want these games since I still have the 64. I brought it with me when I moved in with Adam. And I'm not much of a gamer at all. Lol.

Paper Mario 64 is the first game on that list. Paper Mario has so much to offer to anyone. With the cute 'paper' look and feel to all of the characters. The game play is very smooth and the villains were always fun, except there was always those annoying enemies to deal with, like the fuzzies!! But one thing I enjoy the most is the music! I LOVE the OST for this game. My favorite song is definitely for Forever Forest! <3

Second and third game is to the series of Mystical Ninja, Mystical Ninja starring Goemon is the first gameand Goemon's Great Adventure is the second game (which I own.) Besides the fact of fun levels to play with, great introduction of characters and enjoyable free range of running around the towns meeting the towns people. Now, the game didn't have the best graphics but for the 64, I think they were pretty decent. My favorite character was Yae, as soon as she got her introduction in the first game. Tiffannie and I spent endless hours trying to get up that damn waterfall in the first game to get her magical power to turn into the mermaid. The backgrounds and designs for all the areas in both video games were very interesting, you were always excited to get to that next level to see where you would end up next. Getting onto the music. I love how it sticks with the tradition japanese music and also the more upbeat techno-ish feel to get your heart pumping.

Now this game isn't one of my favorites for the Nintendo 64 but it's going to get a honorable mention (I do also own this game.) Super Mario 64. It is a very fun game, I'm not going to lie. I've spent countless hours playing this game but the music is the main thing to mention here. There is that music that always takes you back to remember those annoying places in the game. Like the snow mountain with that gawd damn crying baby penguin, Or the slide music, falling off those damn edges. Or the peaceful music to Dire Dire Docks.

I think I'll end the nostalgia there. Since I just had to get it out and as you can tell, about half of my favorite games is for the Nintendo 64 console. I REALLY REALLY BADLY WANT PAPER MARIO AND MYSTICAL NINJA!! >o< Someday, they will be mine!! And I will play the living heck out of them!!! >:O

Moving on, school started last week but it was mainly for the first years. So we didn't do that much. We had a one hour meeting for Animation and Design 3 class which is when we got our first assignment that is due tomorrow, which I still have to finish. 3 pose sheets right off the bat! With a few more pages of expression sheets. Thankfully all in rough though. Today is when we all officially start classes. This is my schedule for first semester:

Mondays- Life Drawing 3 @ 1:30-4:30pm
Tuesdays- Digital Illustration 2 @ 8:30-10:30am, Media Business @ 10:30am-12:30pm, Animation Design 3 @ 1:30-3:30pm

Thursdays- Computer Animation 2 @ 8:30am-3:30pm (ALL DAY!! x__________x)

I'm onto my full dose of Celexa. I've noticed a big difference already! So things seem to be going well. I'm still quite tired and yawn a lot. ^^; Oh well, what can ya do? If it helps, it helps.
