Gaming time

It's been a while since I've actually gone and bought a game... And this time it was The Simpsons Game, for my Wii. The previous game was Super Paper Mario, also for the Wii.

I can say that Simpsons game is fun, but I'm pretty unco to play it, because of the camera angle that changes with you, even in 3rd person view. I'm suck in the planetarium (to defeat Jimbo) and I can get onto the space shuttle, but then always fall off that trying to get onto the bloody planets.

So, it's only a short gametime for that. However, I spent approx 2-3 hours on Super Paper Mario. It's a really fun game.

I've gotten to open the third door. Now, when you beat the second door, you will get access to the dungeon. Every 10 stages of the dungeon, you get to leave the dungeon or continue on. In my stupidity, I kept on going to 041, (100 stages in all) but died on 041. I should've quit on 040... But that'll be another weekend's playing, I'm sure.

Why did I buy the Simpsons? It was available in a gaming store called "Game" and I saw that it wasn't available till Nov 8. So I thought, cool, and bought it. Otherwise I would've gone and bought something else, like a Nokia 6300 prepaid phone because it would've been $169 due to Target having 15% off most things in their stores. $199 is cheap, but $169 is even cheaper. But I don't talk on my phone often enough to warrant a new phone, and that phone is getting a bit old. Besides, people don't get amazed by slim phones anymore, the W880i is a tiny phone, but in a big guy's hands it looks like it could snap in half.

Movies, I've watched Good Luck Chuck, License to Wed. They are different types of movies, but both are about relationships. I think Good Luck Chuck was a bit more fun for me, Jessica Alba smiles better than Mandy Moore. Also GLC has more of a gross-out quality to it... plus a lot of naughty scenes. :P Overall it's an alright movie to watch. But definately not for kids.

Work is still work, will have 2 containers next week. This is because they don't want to buy stuff in australia, so they buy it from China and ship it here. Probably save them a few cents a bottle, but then there's storage fees etc etc. Might be better off to buy here. But I'm not the purchasing officer, I'm the warehouse supervisor. So all I can do is bitch :P

I should plan for my holiday soon... *sigh*. Oh where should I go...

I could go to TW (it'll be 5 or 6 years since I've been back...) and also buy an Asus eeepc... I simply love it... cheaper than a UMPC for sure. :P or I can buy a DSLR camera... possiblities are endless... :P But I only got one or two friends in TW now... so won't be much fun :P

I could also go to Europe (specifically England and France) but the tickets would be expensive...

or I can go to USA... but with all their problems, it wouldn't be a good time to visit.

so maybe TW is the go? hmm...

Time will tell... ahhh
