I Wrote This While A Film Was On

Most interesting blog title ever, don't you agree?

Okay then, couple of things.

First off, university.

Next week will be the fourth week or something of my second year, and it's going swimmingly (if, that is,  my course was of the aquatic nature). This year is more towards video and sound than it is to imagery and the like, but that's a good thing.

Sound Tech has just made me want to buy the Sony Z5. But since it's about four grand, maybe I'll order one when I'm rich, which would be in about ninety years. Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics are both crackingly good. After Effects is my type of programme, even if I am utterly wank at it. Luckily, the amount of shit lecturers have gone down to only one, so that's good.

In other university news, I have bitten the bullet and bought a Canon EOS 600D to aid my creations. No more, will I need to book a HandyCam camera from the loans department and I'll have a decent stills camera that will last me a long time (or until I think I need and have the funds for a better camera). Should have it next week, so all ready for any filming needed. Win.

Secondly, gaming.

I think I have a slight obsession with the Final Fantasy franchise. Does it matter? No. Some people love the Harry Potter books (and the movies), others are crazy for the Lord of the Rings and shit like that (and by shit, I'm not calling the Lord of the Rings shit). So yeah, I'm in possession of a Final Fantasy fascination. Ha.

But that doesn't really warrant a section on its own, doesn't it. It'll be like me writing a whole article about how I despise gossip and everything it stands for (oh shi-).

But yeah, for the past few months now, I haven't played a game other than a Final Fantasy title. It's kind of annoying me a bit since I have two games - InFamous and The Third Birthday, if you wanted to know - that I haven't played yet at all. Well, I pressed the start button on InFamous and then I had to get off straight away since I had to be somewhere for some reason on some occasion. Fuck.

But yeah, ever since Final Fantasy X was announced to be remade (or at least tweaked to be at a HD level) and the trailers for XIII-2 and Type-0 (please let there be an English release of that game...) have just made me want to play more of the series. Fuck.

So yeah, a really interesting section of my life there. Moving on.

Third part, I think I've watched too many vlogs on YouTube. Can you tell?

Fourthly, is it just me or does the new iOS 5 slow everything down on the third generation of the iPod Touch? Is it just me? Possibly. Is it that much of a noticeable difference that it warrants a mention on my blog? Fuck no, I just have nothing else to talk about.

Look at me, thinking I'm talking to you when all I'm doing is writing inane bull on a blog. What luxuries we have in this world..

And lastly, I'm done.

See you, dudes.

- FIN me like like one of your French girls.
