Assassin’s Creed 2

Yes, the headline says it all: AC2, baby. My friend let me borrow the game last week after class and I don’t think I’ve really put down the controller yet. The game is amazing – graphics, gameplay, history, everything. The first was good, but the second… Ridiculous. Everything is bigger and better. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a great all-around game.

Since AC2 has pretty much dominated my life, I don’t have too much more to say. I’ve been laying low still and relaxing while I can. I’m already missing Christmas Break – it was so nice to finally not have anything to do. School is starting to pick up and will soon enough be in full swing – midterms and the whole schbang. I guess I’m excited to learn more, but the work picking up will not be happily welcomed. My desk is already super messy from even the first two weeks (see picture below), something I’ll need to work on and keep neat and organized!

To make matters worse, the Vikings ended up losing a heartbreaker on Sunday. I couldn’t even watch the final kick – too much. they continually lose in situations where they should win (circa 1998 championship game vs Atlanta). I’m not sure what plagues them at the end of big games, but its rough on me. I’ll have to get over it, but it will take time. I guess I’ll root for Reggie in the SB, but I don’t think I’ll be watching the game.

Besides all that stuff, I haven’t been up to much. Just hanging out with friends and enjoying college – truly the only 4 years of your life where you can do basically anytime and someone is always awake somewhere near you. Its cool and has its ups and downs, but all in all I’m enjoying it and making the most of it.

Oh, and also I applied to study abroad next summer in Paris! Hopefully I’ll make the trip, but I guess we shall see. If I do I would be super excited! 🙂

That’s about it for now. You’ll hear from me again soon…

Far too messy...
