I want to continue with my idea of having a semi-friends blog. Like, friends could see all my posts, but the public can't see any personal posts I make involving myself or my life. I guess it's safer that way? I'm just trying to decide, is it worth the trouble?
Seeing as I like to make/edit my own graphics, I'd use something of my own to state what my blog will be, but that probably won't happen for a while since I really want to find something that matches my layout. *sighs*
I need to change how many posts appear on a page too. I think it's three at the moment, but I'd like five... maybe six. I have so much left to do for my blog. *whines*
So replaying the game, I remembered something. Luke is seventeen and Mieu is supposed to serve him for a cycle of the seasons, a year, which he does. Thing is, the entire game spans over three years because the coming-of-age ceremony is at twenty and the game ends with his "coming-of-age" ceremony. So~ Mieu served Luke for an additional two years. How cute!!! <3
So I was completely wrong in my last journal. When I started playing again, I was at 70 hours or so, so there was no way for me to finish up some sidequests, try out Nebilim, and finish the game. *sighs* However, I beat it in 75 1/2 hours. I suppose it's okay since I leveled everyone up into near 80s.
But like all videogames I love, I cried. I got my game back in October of last year as a birthday present from Kryss but I didn't start playing it until January 21st. Wait... so does that mean I beat the game in like two weeks time? Jfc. That's just... wow
Well, I started a NG+ (and I carried over my capacity cores!) and now I can't wait to get Indignation jfc, it's the most amazing Mystic Arte ever you have no idea.
So now, to celebrate, I want to see if I can get some Subway.
Alright, so today I'm going to be Tales of the Abyss. Well, that's if I don't do anything to take up my time.
I'm about to enter the last area for the game, which means like ten boss battles... I guess, and after that I'm done. My play time will be less than three days. Damn.
I've decided I'll start a new game+ but I'm still not sure what I should carry over with my grade. :/ Also, I'm working on getting the Catalysts... so I'm still debating if I should attempt to kill Nebilim. Either way, once I start the game over, I am going to do /everything/ that I can to complete the game 100%. It is my goal.
"Within a fortnight, the city shall fall. The Kimlascan army will stain the Malkuth throne with the blood of its last emperor."
Okay, one of the big reasons that I want the Score overthrown is because Peony is boss and if he died, I'd cry. Sorry, I'm just having feels here because poor precious Ion. ;///;
So I finally downloaded Flappy Bird on my phone and I don't think I've played a game via mobile that has made me rage so much since Temple Run. Seriously! All you have to do is tap the screen constantly to fly between pipes. That's it. That's the game... I think. My high score is, sadly, 4. It's addicting though... in really strange way.
Also, for the 25th anniversary, the Legend of Zelda peeps decided to create a game and release it for free on the Nintendo e-shop for four days only. Learning through tumblr, I decided to go with it and download it because hey, I haven't played a Zelda game since the Minish Cap. Its really strange! The player can have like two players and you have to go through puzzles/trials with both of them??? And you can't use one and bring it to the end and then work on the other because some puzzles require both and uGH. It's frustrating!
But I like it.
I need to get my butt back to playing Tales of the Abyss though and finish up in Mt. Roneal. I just defeated Arietta, Largo, and Legretta, so I suppose I'm like... 3/4 through the game??? 3/5??? Not sure, but I decided that on my second playthrough, I'll work on doing all the sidequests. I've started a few, but way too late, since the sidequest section of the game starts when I hit the first town. *Sighs*
... that is still a complete work in progress. Well, somewhat. Color wise? Gotta fix text colors, link colors, and work on the sidebar a bit. I'm using the same layout I did when I had my Dramatical Murder one up, I just tweaked it a bit, mainly for the header image???
Magically my fonts decided to work again in Photoshop, so I was able to make things prettier. This time the star of my layout is Jade Curtis, the most bad ass black mage ever. The title is "Sovereign Gale", which is one of his Arcane Artes. The Fonic font that he's "laying" on as well as what the background image for the entries are is my favorite spell "Indignation", a Mystic Arte you can only score on a New Game +.
"I, who stand in the full light of the heavens, command thee, who opens the gates of hell. Come forth, divine lightning! This ends now! Indignation!!"
I believe it took me two days to work on the graphic alone, and about half to mess with the HTML. I love my layout a lot and I really think I won't be changing it any time soon.
I also think I should buy a subscription since the ads really bother the shit out of me.

Daddy and I were talking about his insurance plan and how it may change in October due to new rules, which I had to bring up the house. Sissy, daddy, and I, all live with my grandpa and we're wanting to know if when he passes, does the house go in my dads name? And bills, since papa pays for all of them now. Kinda became a semi-depressing conversation.
But what I learned today that made me sad is that papa's kidney doctor is moving to North Carolina (his kidney is what's bad) so he'd have to go on dialysis at the hospital, which he doesn't want to do. Papa and my aunt even got in a little argument when visiting his doctor today 'cause he kept saying that "he was fine" and that "he can do this" and "he can do that", when my aunt was calling the bullshit card and saying that he can't.
Papa's kidneys are bad. The bigger one has completely shut down, so his body is running on the smaller one, which he was told is only working about 10% now. Haah, I don't even know what to think right now.
