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!

Gyu-Kaku Date with Boba

Hey, hey, hey! I hope you had a great Valentine's Day with your loved ones and friends. I had a pretty nice V-Day despite the city being super crowded. Boba and I wanted to see a movie, but when we got to the theater we didn't see anything we wanted to see. We were gonna try I, Frankenstein, but saw it's horrible rating when we checked it out on Rotten Tomatoes, bless that site lol

We ended up going to Gyu-Kaku in the village. The wait was only an hour, so Boba took us to Video Games New York to buy me a V-Day gift^^ He's so sweet and knows me so well! I am not a flower person; I would rather be bought food or something else haha I was about to get Bravely Default for the 3DS when the shop owner told me about the new One Piece game that had just come out! I was SOOO excited because Boba and I had been talking about how cool it would be if there was a One Piece RPG available in the States. I figured why not get this instead since he's totally responsible for my One Piece addiction haha I read some okay reviews online about it, but I'm still excited to play it. I'll write a review on it later. 

When we came back to Gyu-Kaku we only waited ten more minutes. I'm super happy that we decided to eat there instead of making a reservation at Max Brenner like I originally wanted. We ran into a friend there and he was waiting an extra hour and a half even though he had a reservation. Ummmmmm, no!!! I would have found somewhere else to eat. They had a special Valentine's Day course, but I wasn't feeling anything on that course menu. We looked at the regular menu and saw some more course options. We decided on the Geisha course. It had ten items on it which is a lot. So, I'm thinking that we had to pick a few things under each section. I was wrong, but in the best way. You everything on the course menu!!! There were a lot of things that I haven't tried on it, but they all sounded delicious. The Geisha was amazing and we stuffed by the end!

The next day I bought Boba the new Batman game (Arkham Origins) for his PS3 and surprised him after his shift with it. He didn't even expect it. We're just started playing it together right now and it seems really awesome so far.
