Well. I've had a good day, I've really enjoyed the time I spent awake and have done a number of good things including sleep a lot, eat more delicious bagels, play a lot of PS2 (of which more anon) and type up the parts of my fanfic which I wrote on the bus on the way to placement this week. However, this has led to my ending up in a state of mild apprehension. See, when I typed up said fic parts, I reached the end of my current chapter, and, well...

... basically I updated my Weiss Kreuz fanfic. Help.

I like Fanfiction.net. Problems like the prevelence of lousy works and the huge numbers of Mary Sues which infest a sizeable proportion of said lousy works aside, I do like being able to post my stories and get feedback on them (i.e: know someone has read them). The problem is, I get worried about the nature of said reviews. See, I'm a sensitive soul and while I like constructive criticism, I'm always worried someone is just going to be plain nasty to me, or say something which is blatantly unfair. Basically, here I am waiting for someone to say something about this chapter, and I'm on edge.

So yeah. Nervous. I shouldn't take fanfic so seriously, but I do, and it worries me that I do. Yes, I am a pathetic fangirl; yes, I need help. Need I mention that though this fic started out as an ensemble piece, Ken's turning into the main character? Need I mention that he's having an absolutely rotten time?

Anyway. In other news, I bought the Sonic Mega Collection yesterday and it is SO FREAKING COOL THAT ONLY HYSTERICAL CAPITAL LETTERS DO JUSTICE TO IT. Was Sonic I always that damn hard or do I just suck at it? I only got to the Marble Hill Zone before giving up and going to play kind, cuddly, friendly Sonic II instead. Currently at the Hill Top Zone and very glad that the PS2 version of Sonic the Hedgehog involves something magical known as a Save Facility. It's no wonder I never completed a Sonic game, aside from being lame at them... the games take so freaking long to complete that my ass would go numb, I would get bored and go off and do something else.

The Save Facility is now my new best friend. Well, not really, but you know what I mean. Now I don't have to play all the way through Sonic II just to get to the Hill Top Zone, where I left off. I can just carry on from there. Did I mention that this game is fantastic and everyone who was a child or teenager during the '90s should buy it?

Oh. And MSN is fixed. My landlady got her son to do it last night. So, that's good. :)

I actually remember Sonic the hedgehog. Did the first one pack in the early 90's (when Sega and Nintendo waged an epic war) but turned off from the second installment to sell my soul to Madden. That was in 1993. It's now 2005 and i'm still hooked...:-(

Thanks for the encouragement girl. But from what you're tellin me i don't think Community will be a barrel of fun either. Walking? everywhere? Great. I've been nervous at stabbing people with needles at the best of times but doing it in a persons house with a community nurse breathing down your neck is something else. I luv my life! Yay!
Just think, all you've got is 3 more weeks to go and then you get to play around with babies. Fun, fun, fun!!!
