These days, it feels like I have too much and too little going on. Work, appointments, photo sessions, hang outs.
I know what I should be doing is packing up stuff and cleaning my two bedrooms so I can move into my new apartment. I also need to renew my now expired driver's license...should probably do that tomorrow.
It's so easy to be procrastinatory in times where you know you shouldn't.
Aside from that, there's been a lot on my mind lately concerning video games...and how bloody awesome they are. Perhaps that's what has been keeping me from getting anything done.
This week, my boyfriend and I played through the amazing and epic Uncharted 3 and are now working our way through The Last of Us. After all the hype, I can surely say it is living up to my expectations. With the opening tutorial leaving me stunned, afraid, and in tears, all I can say is that you have to play it to know its greatness.
On my own, I recently beat the new Deadpool game. Despite the low critical acclaim, I can honestly tell you that it IS worth playing. Especially if you love the comic series written by Daniel Way. Deadpool is hilarious! I love all the random comedy sketches with characters like Rogue, Domino, Psylocke, Wolverine, and more! Deadpool's universe is appealing to a certain type of audience, so obviously it has its nay-sayers. However, I think for the limitations that they had, it really fulfilled its duty. Bloody, brutal, brilliant. I really have high hopes if they ever make another one.
And lastly, I finally started playing Red Dead Redemption last night on my own. It's pretty good so far. I'm not that far in the actual story line yet but that's kind of a given with Rockstar-style open world games. Nonetheless, I'm liking the game play and it's really staying true to its spaghetti western influenced environment.
So yay video games! You distract me from the complication of everyday life!
