WotLK-gasm May 9, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Gaming, Life, World of Warcraft , add a commentAs anyone who reads WoW news will know a whole bunch of Wrath of the Lich King news appeared today. I’m not gonna go into it all as it’s really not necessary but it does make me excited for the new expansion. It should make it easier for me to experience more raid content due to the 10/25 man modes and the new zones are looking pretty awesome from where I’m sitting.
It’s looking pretty sealed that I will be buying it when it comes out and probably playing WoW for quite a while yet although it’s difficult to know how much I will play until then. I’m surprised by how little I am actually missing playing WoW. What happens with me and gaming addictions (if you want to call it that, what I experience makes a real addiction look like a walk in the park but I’m not sure I can come up with a better word) is that if it is displaced with other things so that I keep busy then I don’t really have a problem. That’s how I can go away on fun holidays without ever wanting to play but can have trouble traipsing the mundane normality without a good WoWy fix.
If I find my life filled with things to the point that I don’t need WoW then I won’t play it and will probably be more productive at other things as well but until that time comes I’ll just keep having fun.
Happenings no more May 6, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Scraps , add a commentYes, I deleted the Happenings category. It was getting out of hand. None of the other categories could possibly compete with the great monolith that was happenings. As such, it’s gone. The fact is I rarely post about anything that isn’t a happening so really it’s just a bit redundant.
Coursework Conundrums
Posted by Sharny in : Life, Rants, School , add a commentI should be doing my psychology coursework right now. Well, I am. Trying to do it at least…
We started doing this coursework absolutely ages ago but I was always going very slowly. I got the practical and results out of the way a long time ago but writing the report for what I did seems horribly difficult. In fact, coming up with an original study (well, original compared to what everyone else did - replicate last years coursework and then use it as a guide) is a huge disadvantage.
What I did was a bit weird anyway but I have very little relevant guidelines. Unless I do what I sometimes seem to and just pull a good piece of coursework out of the bag with pure fluke this will be a terrible failure and since I’m relying on the shinyness of an A in psychology to overshadow the almost unavoidable C in physics I can’t have shoddy coursework.
Did I mention it has to be in tomorrow?
And of course, due to the fact that May is already in swing, this is one of those deadlines that the teacher has very little control over, I can’t just magic up an extension from anywhere.
One of the most horrible things is that when I’ve talked to him about it I’ve gone away feeling good, feeling like I can tackle the problems. But then when I sit down and actually try and write, nothing comes out. I mean, I’ve been thinking of things to put in this coursework for months, it’s something that interests me and actually gave results that I wasn’t necessarily expecting but now that I try to write about it I can’t seem to find any words.
The title of my blog is looking very appropriate now…
