Sunday Blog

Another sunday in dispatch = another blog.

Didn't end up going to NCR because a cute lil spike came into my life and I love him to death! He is the most adorable Corgi in the world. Im too lazy to post pics right now but I will sometime soon.

I was a lil sad not to go up to NCR cause not only did I want to take a vacation, I wanted to see my friend Cheska who is on Playstations The Tester season 2 since she lives up north. Come to my surprise I get a phonecall from Danielle aka War Princess also from the same show, saying she was going to be in town. Talk about exciting since I haven't seen her since blizzcon. Still sad she lives so far away ( okay about 3k away in NY ) One of the nicest people I have ever met and such a good friend as well ( no danielle I am not trying to be stuck up your ass =p lol ). On the way to pick Danielle up I get a phone call from Cheska saying she is going to be in town as well so I actually got to meet ms Cheska as well! Cheska is also one of the nicest people I have ever met and has always been a good friend to me through the whole tester auditions up to now and I thank you ms cheska for being there for me =).

After all that fun stuff its now Thanksgiving which was awesome. Had dinner with Shannon, her mom, and Jay Jay. Decided not to do anything for black friday cause 1. nothing good was in the ads and 2. broke lol. I did get a new 58in 3DTV and about 6 games from amazon, some movies, and some game accessories. Was a lot more comfy to shop online for black friday rather than sit out in the cold lol.

Thats about it for this edition of my blog. I can't think of anything else to write about

SoCal Regionals ReCap and NorCal Regionals


SoCal Regionals

I went, I had fun, got some cool stuff, but I failed. I knew I was going to not do well playing BlazBlue since I was out of practice but my nerves got the best of me during my SSFIV matches. As soon as they called my name for my first match I could feel the jitters. I sat down next to my oppenent, shook hands with him, and then we proceeded to choose our characters. As he goes to choose Abel I start thinking to myself "Great, I suck against Abel." Needless to say he beasted me 2-0. After that match went outside to the lobby of the proud bird and realized that there was a bar there and you better believe I was drinking some Makers Mark and Coke to try and calm my nerves a bit. It was too little to late cause right when I was finishing my first drink I heard my name get called for losers bracket. My opponent picks Balrog and again I think to myself "I have issues with the character as well but I have defeated Balrog players." A valient effort was put forth in this match as I was fighting to stay in the game but my nerves got the best of me and Shoryukened when I shouldnt have. I was defeated 2-1 and spent the rest of the day at SCR drinking, hanging, out and having a great time.




NorCal Regionals ( www.norcalregionals.com)

Well NorCal Regionals is less than a week away and I have been caught up playing CoD Black ops. I passed the game on veteran so multiplayer can wait the rest of the week since I need to train. I am hoping a friend of mine helps me out with training. I am sure she is going to be able to help me out with a lot of technique and strategy. I am determined to win one match even if its in losers bracket! Hopefully it goes better than so cal.
