Divergent Movie Date and Birthday Celebration!

On Friday, Boba and I went to see Divergent. Ugh, it was SO good and thought provoking! I def caught a case of the feels. I need to get the books stat. My bestie Meika saw it a few hours later; she read the books and said that the movie pretty much followed it. Obviously some things had to be left out, but that just makes me want to read the books even more. She also liked that they stayed true to keeping the POC in the books POC in the movies which doesn't happen sometimes.

The only downside was that this awkward girl sat beside us. There were three sits between us and the next person before she sat, so she could have sat in the middle and had a set free on either side of her. But no, she had to sit beside me. At first I was thought maybe she had a friend that was going to join her later, nope she didn't. She proceeded to move uncomfortably in her chair due to the back being broken which she knew and commented to me after she sat in it -_- Um trick, move to the empty seat beside you. AND she talked to herself the whole movie. She tried to talk to me at one point and I wasn't having that ish. My body's been ready for this movie for two months you ARE NOT gonna sit beside me and f this up. No ma'am!

The trailer for The Maze Runner blew my mind. I told Meika to be on the lookout for it, but she said she didn't get the same trailers I did. She ended up watching it on YouTube. I think she's down for the cause. It'll be another movie we'll run to see. I ain't gonna lie the trailer did scare me a bit lol I also got to see the trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy for the first time. Boba's gonna sprint to the box office for that one lol

Of course we had to play the what faction would I be in game. He swears up and down I'm Dauntless. I had to explain to him that I don't like to do anything physical unless I want to, that's one of the reasons I quit track after junior high lol I figure I would probably be a divergent. He can't decided if he would be smart or kind. I told him he'd probably be a divergent, too.

Gemini Gamer Attack! Well, right after I finish something else....

I would say my astrological sign description fits me. I know a little bit about everything, have a ton of interests, and love to talk my butt off. Some of the super negative traits I don't have; I think it's because my Sun sign and my Moon sign are both Gemini, so some of the bad attributes were canceled out. Two still haunt me in my gaming life: lack of follow through and indecisiveness. I have amazing organizational and planning skills outside of this area. If you ask my closest friends, they will let you know that I finished every assignment before the last minute which is amazing because my college was reading and writing heavy.

I had only beaten one video game in my entire life, and I've been gaming since I was three or four! It was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fall of the Foot Clan game on the original Game Boy. It was actually the first video game I owned!!! : )

The fact that I am an RPG lover further complicates this issues and aids my indecisiveness. When I do finally get back in the mood for gaming, I have to pick through all of my awesome titles. If the game I pick happens to be wrong for the mood I'm in, I then lose my enthusiasm and the process starts all over again -_- If video games were were like the game of love, I would def be a love em and leave em type haha

And alas, it has happened again lol In my Valentine's post, I talked about how I had to choose between Bravely Default and One Piece: Romance Dawn. I got tired of Romance Dawn in a night...I know I'm that bad. It was cool to play as the Strawhat gang, but when I had the option to repeat a level that I had just beaten to fight a boss that I already fought before I gave up. I could have just continued the story, but I knew leveling up would be important for the next part of the game. I was like f it lol I still plan to do a review on it.

So, Boba and I had a mini date on Friday where we got Dim Sum and bubble tea. I tried a new flavor at one of my favorite boba spots, Ten Ren. It was Black Sugar Milk Tea, and it was sooo amazing. I was a little nervous that day because I was meeting one of his good friends from college. Before we met up with him, Boba surprised me and bought me Bravely Default! I am such a lucky girl! He knows about my video game commitment issues and he still bought me a new game : ) He also bought South Park: The Stick of Truth for himself. Also, the meeting with his friend went awesome! Nick was really funny and cool.

Also, for any of my readers that are hyped about the new Harvest Moon game Connect to a New Land I found a YouTube channel called Lin and Ko run by a super cute interracial couple that are playing the game live. They have about 11 videos up already. And no worries about the game being in Japanese for my non-Japanese speakers, they're translating it! I haven't had time to watch them yet, but it's definitely something I will do soon.

Thanks for reading! Happy St. Patrick's Day!
