Not much to talk about. Won't bore you with a podcast.

 So no new show this week. The podcast almost seems to becoming an every other week sort of deal. Though, that sort of defeats the purpose. Hopefully I’ll be able to shape my shit up over the summer.

Part of the reason it’s been tough to put out tons of shows lately is just the end of the year crunch. Especially in the past week, it’s been a barrage of tests and finals. Can you say three day math final? Yeah, that happened. Not to mention the fact that my SAT subject tests and AP exams just got over a couple weeks back. It really has been just non-stop test action. But now, the testing has really let up. I’m essentially done with school, save a Physics final on Wednesday, which I’m not too worried about.

Because of all this testing and what have you, it’s been a little tough to have time to do other stuff. And by “other stuff” I mean go out and see movies, listen to podcasts, watch this damned Kung Fu movie I’ve had from Netflix for the past month. However, that doesn’t mean that I haven’t gotten out. Well okay, maybe it does, but who’s judging? I mean we had out last dance on Friday, the Cardinal Carnival. That was slappin. Good times, good DJ. He didn’t just play the radio hip-hop hits that you’re used to hearing at a run of the mill dance, really mixed it up.

Been playin’ some Magic Cards. Tried making a red/white deck recently. Pretty I might have a new favorite card, Hearthfire Hobgoblin. I just like the way it looks, it’s not a terrible card either. I just kind of like the “Hobgoblins” in general. They make me giggle.

I’ve had some time to play over some of the DOTA-like game “Demigod”. Now, I don’t think it is quite as good as DOTA, yet. Graphically, it’s much better. The rendering is great, and blows Warcraft 3 out of the water, which is to be expected from a game that came out so far after. The game play though is lacking something. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun, but for some reason, just not as enjoyable as DOTA. I don’t know if it’s the lack of a diverse character pool to choose from, the fact that game feels Unresponsive every now and then or what. I do like the fact that there are two distinct types of heroes, Assassins and Generals. Assassins focus on dealing damage and killing other Demigods, while Generals will often summon units for the player to control and will either positively affect allies or negatively affect opponents. However, these classifications can sometimes pigeon hole the heroes into seeming similar and slightly stale. Overall though, it’s not a bad game. I don’t suggest buying it if you aren’t familiar with the DOTA style of play.

So that’s the Weekly Accidental Wrap Up. Hope you enjoyed it. I leave you with a video of my Physics class. This was an actual class. The man you see is my teacher. Perhaps this answers questions about why I’m not too worried about my final.
