What I Did Last Night

It's been a while...but I'm posting again. Not because I'm pulling another all-nighter (which actually is what I am really doing) but because I'm at LAX airport waiting for my flight for Orlando so I can go to MLG (Major League Gaming). Hour and a half FTW =) And I think the real main reason why I haven't been on here posting is probably because I forgot how to change my image for my blog >_< It's so...so...n00b.

So...it's almost a month into things! Here's the fresh details from the freshman concerning the INEN major: I think I am going to cry. Cry in a good way, that is. I'm pretty thrilled with how my Intro to INEN class is doing. And my first paper...my first paper is on Lego Star Wars...

o_o

OMGLMAOROFLCOPTERCRZYSNAPZYO! All I have to say is, "Can you smell what the Rock is cookin'!?" I'm glad that I did not get Halo 2 or Shadowrun for my paper because I would hate either game after writing a paper on them, but I'm uber-excited to start this paper.

Wait, excited? To start a paper? Is that even POSSIBLE!?

Okay, I'm treating this blog like a Myspace blog and that's not good. I'm going crazy with incomprehensible expressions and random blurts. I feel like I must relate this directly to interactive entertainment and video games...

Right-o. I think I'll talk about MLG. Because I'm sacrificing a good 8 hours of sleep to it, I might as well write about it. Here's the black and white version of MLG:

Major League Gaming is the first large-scale console tournament held in the United States, hosted and sponsored by Red Bull, Boost Mobile, and Microsoft itself. The 2007 season is currently hosting the following Xbox/Xbox 360 titles: Halo 2, Rainbow Six: Las Vegas, Gears of War, and Shadowrun. The tournament features prizes collectively worth over $100,000, including professional status and sponsorship and corporate opportunities.

And here's my version:

Major League Gaming is one of the tournaments within the professionally competitive video gaming community which gives big chances of fame and fortune. Primarily, fortune if you happen to be amazing at Halo 2 and professional in R6V, Gears of War, and Shadowrun. Anything below the bar is worth nothing -- everyone plays the best to be the best. The event is invigorating, filled with pros and noobs alike who scream smack talk at each other in the most primitive yet entertaining ways. Everyone gets wired on Red Bull, screams at 13-year-old 'bad-kids', and freaks out overall. It's an amazing experience and although there are some shady activities going on, which I will not dwell over because of certain circumstances, making the effort to play the best and be the best is rewarding and insane at the same time.

Here's my version personalized:
I'm going to MLG and I'm WAY too tired. I have to wait for one more hour for the flight from LAX to Dallas to Orlando and will most likely be wired on multiple Red Bull's, Rockstar's, etc etc etc. The madness won't stop either; we have about 9 people in our hotel room because people don't like to spend money for hotel rooms and I'm leaving Saturday night to catch my flight home. C-r-a-z-y.

As you can tell, my mind goes at a blank. I'm not sure what my direction in life is, but all I know is my pursuit towards professional video gaming and towards creating video games. I'm still hoping for the best *crosses fingers*

And let's also hope that I retain some stability within this school year.

I bid you au revoir, reader. Why did you read this? I wish I knew.

And by the way...funny note: my gamertag is ai insanity. How appropriate!
