I've been wanting one for a while now, ever since I got to play Mario Kart and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I've also been going crazy over the new Rock Band: The Beatles simply because RB is quite possibly one of the most fun video games I've played yet, and because it's the Beatles, who are basically gods of rock.

But then my sister sent me this, and I just about peed myself with shock and happy.


Remember those old Spyro games? Well, they were revamped a year or two back. And HOLY. SCIET. (Hee hee, Latin comes in handy.) They are simply amazing. They have an amazing cast of characters, including David Spade (only for the first ;_; ), Elijah Wood, and Gary Oldman. There's this amazing plot behind it, and WOW...the cut scene animation is just...superb.

But what really hooked me was the ending theme for the final game, Dawn of the Dragon. It's simply beautiful and so heart-felt - I actually feel empowered listening to it.

In Government, we got to read Obama's address to the students. It was very good and I liked it a lot, and it just bugs me that people made such a big deal about it. He made a lot of good points on stressing perserverance and effort, and how you cannot define yourself by your failures.

Hell, my dad tells me that all the time. XD

It makes me realize that political parties can be so full of crap. I think I would like to go independant - not because I hate either party (though lately they've been pissing me off quite a bit), but because I share viewpoints from both sides. Plus, if the two main parties continue to devide our country the way they have, I would rather have nothing to do with them explicitly.

Politics make my brain hurt. X3

Spyro makes my brain very, very happy. X3
