The Feel Good Drag

After last night's three hours of sleep, I couldn't feel any worse. I am trying not to get sick with my two room mates showing signs of the flu and I almost pull an all nighter in the name of procrastination.

What is it this time you may ask? It was a five-page report for my history class. My topic; the Industrial Revolution in Great Brittan, mainly how it pertains to the development of the steam engine. Basically in five pages I drug out my topic and how the benefits of the revolution aided Great Brittan in expanding its empire so that "The sun would never set on British conquered land." It isn't a quote by anyone, but I assume that someone important probably said that at some point in time.

After six hours of pain of writing my outline and finding quotes and credible sources to cite, I took a break. To do what? I started something I had done since two glorious years ago in the height of my video game juncture. Play Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater.

Sure I have beaten it, but there was more that had to be done. Any gamer could beat this game on Hard in under 11 hours of play time, but I wanted to get the stealth camouflage. I set out to shoot all the frogs in the game.

I have to go back to writing my paper, but I will keep you posted on the genocide of Kermit the Frog and his best friends. I will try to go home and finish off the vermin before I go to bed. Maybe I will get lucky and have hit them all.
