    I have been studying since 4PM. (It's now 11:56PM.) I stopped for a fifteen minute walk back to my dorm and a fifteen minute shower, but that's seriously it.

    Alright, biology. BRING. IT. ON.

    :)

    Just hope I can stay focused for another 24 hours after this exam to cram chemistry and law into my brain for Wednesday... and then it will all be over.

    You can do it, Merc!

    Aside from a crappy experience with my extended family, it's been a nice visit to Arizona so far. Lunch and frisbee golf with one of our friends, played a good game of volleyball, and now we're watching Inception. Good times.

    I've been having a bad past couple of days, worried about the people I love, and hoping they're going to be okay.... I was sad, so I played "Here Comes the Sun" and "Let it Be" on a whim, hoping for some positivity.... I got a flood of happiness from listening to Beatles music, and it gives me hope that everything will be okay with me and my loved ones again.

    I really, really needed that.

    Is Uncharted as racist as reviews suggest?

    I'm not sure. I just remember Yahtzee making a big deal about how the enemies turn out to be simply all other races. I've never played it, so I don't know how true it is.

    Well the baddie in Uncharted 2 appears to be Australian considering the accent, so maybe some of the critics were saying this series did the "Good American Guy vs. Bad Guy with Foreign Accent" cliche??

    Maybe. It might also be referring to the first game. It's been a while since I watched Yahtzee's review.

    Well, I'll play both of them and see if I find any. I'll post in my blog the reviews when I'm done with them.

    In the comfort of my stubborn little mind.
    I love my boyfriend to pieces...And then I love his pieces to pieces.

    Think it's mushy? Bite me! :)

    Glad to hear it, Lemex. Often, some good eats with some good company will do the trick!
