Yes i know, oblivion has been out for a while, and the day it came out i got it ^___^
But how can you have any fun with such a wonderful, fantastic, breathtaking, ect ect game, with a Geforce FX 5600?

Answer...you can't it's near impossible, unless you like playing at 1fmp (1 frame per minute) I know I’m over exaggerating, but that's how it felt. So it was time for an investment. A new video card!
And what a card it is!

I'd like to introduce my new bestest friend the Geforce 7800GS! I may not be much of a computer guru, but i sure can see the difference between the 5600 and the 7800. Oblivion plays just like the game trailers you've seen and the snapshots you have admired.

Not only has it improved my Oblivion game play greatly, it has also considerable decreased my lag in playing online games like Lineage II. Even the Sims2 has had an upgrade from it.

So it's no surprise when i say i am a happy little gamer. So off i go to play some more Oblivion ;)

This is a rant post, beware.

22nd December 2005 Japan goes crazy, Kingdom hearts 2 has been released. My god did anybody see the people lining up? Or the shops overflowing with merchandise, posters, dolls, book and even more then you can imagine? Seemed like heaven to me..okey we will never go as far as that, but it's nice to see how enthusiastic people can be over a game.

28th of March 2006.
Close to 4 months since its release does Kingdom Hearts 2 arrive in North America. Damn that was a long wait. And straight away the first torrents show themselves. People bought the game, ripped it and then played it.

My first thought was, ‘Hey I’m going to wait, this game is too brilliant to get illegally. I can wait. It took 3 / 4 from Japan to get to the US so it should be about the same to Europe.

BIG MISTAKE!

FRIGGING OCTOBER!
Can you believe it, October!!?? June or July fine, but October!? Where the hell is the justice in that!? Almost a whole year since its been released in Japan.
Seriously? What are they waiting for, what needs to be done to make it fit for Europe? It’s already been dubbed to English, all you need to do is convert it from a US Playstation system to a European one. Is that so hard?
What else? Advertisement? You knew it was coming since last year December?!
PLAN AHEAD PEOPLE!

It’s like they are forcing us to download. I have been waiting for 3 years since Kingdom Hearts 1. Hell I bought it, and paid for it at its original price, its now like 19,99 euro’s (still expensive mind you after 3 years)
When Kingdom Hearts 2 comes out we will be paying yet again the full price of 49,95 or something like that. And I am still willing to buy it, that’s not the issue here.
I’m sorry, but when I heard that we wouldn’t get it until October I snapped, and I’m already downloading it. It should be done in an hour or so.

It’s so sad really, how the game industry works. But its not only them, its everything electronic. Games, cd’s, movies and my favorite of all, anime. Europe is thirsting for what the far west and the far east has to offer. (I mean the US and Japan of course) It makes me wonder why all these industries hate downloading so much. True sales will slightly fall, but people like me are willing to still pay the price afterwards. So why not speed up the process, get your product on the market as quick as you can. Don’t let downloading be an option.

After telling myself for years that I need a new case for my pc, I finally kicked myself and bought one on my way home from school. One my first day even!

So I bought myself a DUKE DU09A Multimedia System...ohh such a big name.
It's nice and black with silver to match the rest of my accessory with USB ports at the front (always handy) Plus you can put a light behind the front vent pretty!
On top of that, I also bought myself a new HD 120GB and a DVD Burner...my my my aren’t I spoiling myself?

It's kind of nice, now the entire PC is actually mine not old parts from my brother

So I’m happy and spoiled
Plus my bestest friend who I have known for over 7 years on internet is finally coming to meet me \o/
Life really is getting better everyday ^______^

Okay I just had to post this!

A new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. Completely done is GC.
It will be released in 2007.

When I was young I loved the first movie, i really hope this new movie can live up to my expectations..

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0453556/

okey dit keer ga ik wel in Nederlands lullen. Ik heb jullie hulp nodig!

Voor een tijd lang had ik een ps2 te leen jammer genoeg meot ik deze terug geven. Maar goed ik kom nu met de gedachten ik moet zelf ook maar een console kopen. Probleem welke O_o Voor elke console zijn er zoveel goeie spellen, ik ben dan neit een active gamer, maar wil toch een console :P Het irritante is er is wel 1 spel voor elke console die ik zou willen

• Xbox= Fable, Buffy Chaos Bleeds (ook ps2) 
• PS2= Kingdom Hearts, Alle Final Fantasy's, DDR
• Gamecube= Harvest moon, Animal crossing, Pokemon Coloseum(sue me -_-) en Pikmin

Helaas zijn dat maar een paar van de titels die ik nu kan bedenken. Het ergste is ik wil Fable zooooo graag spellen maar om een xbox te kopen voor 1 spel :S Ja ik weet je kunt veel meer met een xbox, maar of ik het echt enorm veel gebruik van ga maken...

Als ik een ps2 of xbox koop zal ik het laten moden das zeker. Weet iemand nog mod sites en zo? Maar goed heel graag wil ik jullie mening welke console volgens jullie het beste is, met mening graag ;P Ook hou ik erg van god-games en rpg's dus geef me ook spelletjes opties :P

THX!^_^

ugh I'm going to have a mental breakdown one of these days..

as an earlier post tells school sucks, well mine in a different way because its so badly organised..anyway this is my third and final year on to higher education if I'm lucky.

I made a list of all the tests i still have to make this year plus the fact that I'm doing work experience for half a year starting in November O_o         So anyway adding absolutely all the tests i can think of and adding more because the teachers will probably spring a surprise test on me or something..i have to do over 22 tests this year. And let me tell you they are not short nor easy.

The worst bit is that i am the only person in my entire school (no joke here) that follows the course secretarial third year niveau 3/4. Of course there are the second years that do secretarial niveau 3/4, but i cant work with them they do other stuff -_-' SO as a secretarial that has to work usually with other people I'm on my own having to do big projects that requires at least 4/5 people.. It's a good thing i was able to kick some sense into the teachers that there was no way in hell i would do these projects. Besides the projects don't count for everything there are to pre pair you for the future which i think is great, but not when your alone and in serious time shortage. And after this school i don't want to be a secretary, I'm just following it because it's a good basis, i don't know what i want out of live...not yet.

Now concerning the tests it's not to much of a big deal, yes they are hard but at least 10 or so are pretty easy and requirer little studying. But for the other 10 ;_; i could just cry. There is only one main subject (German) that scares the shit out of me, and gives me the feeling i cant do this so i cant get my diploma... 

I'm really freaked and scared atm as a manner of speaking. I really want to finish because i have had enough of this crappy school. I don't want to stay any longer then i have to. I spoke to my teacher about my concerns and ended up in tears (that is just so pathetic) but i couldn't help it, I'm just so screwed if i fail...it it wasn't for German if i could somehow drop it i would be fine and not so depressed. Sadly i cant

Who gives a shit about German anyway!

last week was the first day of school (yeh)? we started thursday and the first lessons of the day were typing and ICT. Now i dont mind these classes i actually enjoy then.

So we arived at school. “Guess what students, the teacher is sick you can all go home”. -_-' ack! anoying but then again free wheeee.

The thing is i should have realised that history was repeating itself. in my first year of this school the teacher fell ill the first week and we were without an ICT teacher for most of the year. A replacement was found eventually. In the second year we got the same teacher who had fallen ill. He was better...for 3 weeks, then he was absent again.

Now this time last week we got another sick teacher...and i just got a phonecall that all lessons fall out tomorrow so i'm free!....this is becoming rather anoying. WIll i get ICT this year?...i doubt that.

End march this year i had to do some work experience for 10 weeks (stage).

I did the easiest thing, i askt my dad to see if i could do some exp at his work ^_^ So that was easily settled (even thou school was being a bitch (see previous blog post)

Anyway i workt for 10 weeks, little boring but i did learn allot and the people were great to work with. When i started my boss told me i would get paid (Wh00t) not allot of people get paid for work exp so i was very happy!

....

And so 1 month after my work exp i still hadn't received my money -_-' I phoned my boss and askt if i still was getting anything. He thought it had all been settled and that i had been paid already O_o He told me to phone back a week later and in the meantime he would find out what went wrong...

Many weeks went by, and still my boss couldn't figure out what went wrong. Last week i spoke to a different guy (boss was on holiday) and he told me he would try to find out what was happening and he was going to phone me back Monday (yesterday) Yet he didn't..or he did when i was still in bed at 13.00 :P

So i phoned today got my boss on the phone and he was angry, not at me, but at the people that were supposed to give me my pay. He's even going to file a complaint! i felt so appreciated that he was going to file in a complaint for me i feel so loved ^_^ It's also suprising that he gives  shit, i mean why would he care about the salary of a kid working there for 10 weeks? You don't usually get paid anyway.

But it's almost settled now, i only have to come by to put my signature on some papers, and hopefully it will be settled....It shows that some managers in this world do care ^_^

i went exploring in lineage last, just some sight seeing its so beautiful...i want to see a castle siege :P

Kind of annoying!

at the moment I'd a level 17 dark elf night and i belong to a clan (run by a friend of mine) now normally you have to be level 20 to join. but yeah me I'm not. The only thing the clan leader askt me to do is show i really want to level up and be online often enough.

So today i started with the fresh feeling "lets kiss some demon ass, and level up" i get killed 3x lose 30% of my exp and lose my boneshield witch i only found yesterday! so I'm kind of pissed. I just want to level up is that so much to ask ;_;

Can somebody just level up for me or something and trade good armour for me..that would help :P

or if somebody could boost me and play human shield..pwetty please..I'd like to party

I'm looking for a pendant that kindof looks like this...but without the dots

if anybody knows where i can find one (shop in holland) please tell me ^_^

Now this is what i was waiting for!

i have wanted to get a digital camera for a while but was put of the thought because you have to either print them on your own printer, or save them on your pc. Now printing with your own printer isn't to great you get 1 or 2 photo's on 1 page and its not glossie... And saving them on your pc or web site is no fun neither, i like the traditional photo book plus i would delete them after a while anyway.

So kodak has come up with something i find great:

The Kodak Kiosk!

It's the same as having on of those thermal dye printers at home, but if you cant afford it or don't have the space, just go to your local photo shop and do it there (for people in Holland it's also in Dixons)

I don't know how much it costs yet, but i think it's a great idea....

mhh having a blog to rant about school might actually be the best thing i have ever thought about doing...

::Start Rant::

Anyway school. Something loved by few, dreaded by most.

I go to a crappy school. It was a new school so of course you expect some problems, thats only normal..But after 2 years you expect them to have sorted out some of there problems...Of course NOT!

No it's there way of teaching you how to cope with the real world. Nothing is organised, nobody has a clue in what there supposed to be doing and people can't learn there material because they haven't been told how to actually do it....Yup just like the real world.

Here's an example: I join this school and choose for the studie of secretarial. you expect to get into a class with people that are going to follow the same course...not. i was thrown into a class with all sorts of people ranging from insurance courses to commercial courses. I guess for a part yes you can throw them together. But what on earth am i as a secretary going to do with courses involving insurance. For the simple math sure put everybody together no problem.

So fine we all workt together threw the year, no problem with the class, just the damn teachers trying to teach you something you don't even have the books for because your not following that course..hehe another funny thing. Before school started you had to choose a language to learn. I chose Spanish because i suck at German. I got the books and everything (bloody expensive) then i go to school and hear that i wont be having Spanish because they don't have a teacher for it. So i have to follow German anyway! And i have to buy the damn books for it. So now i have both Spanish and German books in my cub board. 

So continuing the year last few weeks of school they decided to put us on a group project...yeah -_-' SO the teacher says form a group with the people who are following the same course as you. It turned out i was the only one in my class who wants to follow the secretarial course. yeah me i get to do the project alone...In a way bad because your supposed to learn to work in a group, in another way, yeah because now i can choose what to do and how to do it! I got to work hard work lots of research and it was really hard being alone to do so much (there was a list of things you had to fulfill) Hooray \o/ i was done. gave in my work and waited...and waited...and waited. then a week before school finished i heard the result...a 6! WTF!? i workt so hard and i got a 6!? They thought that i had just copied it, that it wasn't my own work...damn bastards!! That royally pissed me of! But as usual what's a student to do about it? (of course allot more happened that year but just little things that piss you off)

On to year 2. As only one that was going to follow secretarial i was afraid they were going to send me to another school close by. They didn't instead they put me in a class with first year students that wanted to be secretaries! i mean wtf!? How on earth can i get lessons if they put me with first years!? i have had the lessons already. do you really expect a teacher to give privet lessons to 1 student!? Of course they had a brilliant solution for that. Figure it out yourself. That was practically it. I got second year books they just said go read that. So with no preparation at all i would have to do test and i was probably learning material not suitable for those tests. Well i had a right go at them of course! and it was besides that the teachers would put up list of what i had to do or every test. some of the teachers did, while others didn't. So no wonder that at the end of the years i hadn't done some of the tests because i just hadn't been told what to learn for them. But the teachers were so generous to let me do the tests next year, along with all the test for the third year. oh yeah its not like i don't have enough to do...

When i first started school i was told that in the second year i would have to do work experience for 10 weeks. So i joined the army learned allot did a little. But that aside. I was to do my work exp in march, and in January i had heard nothing from school about what i was supposed to do. You're always supposed to make some kind of school work for it, but i was told nothing. So i started to make a nuisance of myself by asking teachers well what's happening? Most of the didn't have a clue...of course. and others were more occupied with the work exp of the lower niveau's. I am following a niveau 4 while the others where following 2. I guess i wasn't as important. With help form my father i got into the army. And school was supposed to talk with the place i would be exp'ing to tell them what i needed to know/do. school has never talkt to them. SO the army did everything school had to do, they gave me a contract and told me what i would be doing yeah 10 weeks of dullness. Anyway somewhere in February a teacher comes up to me and says, "hey did you know you had to do wok exp next month?". Well what do you know a teacher actually cared..."wow work exp...you don't say" so finally i got some weird and very confuzzeling information witch i had to go back to the teachers with on numerous occasions because i understood jack squat of it...

Anyway i started the work exp, was pretty interesting if not a little very much boring -_-' never again. Now at some point in my 10 weeks a teacher would have to come by 2x. somewhere after 3 weeks and then again after 8 weeks. Nobody came. i phoned school to see if they actually knew where i was. They didn't! they had been marking me absent for frigging 5 weeks! And they were planning to phone home to see where i was! bloody bastards!! So anyway after a long discussion with my teacher she told me she wasn't responsible and didn't have time to come by. So she sent a different teacher instead. Grumble...

Hooray 10 weeks over, back to school. First thing i get to hear is "now you have to do all the tests you didn't do when you were on work exp" Yeah fun -_-. With no lessons given at all in the test i had to do i did it blindly, and than god i passed them wit not to much trouble, oh and they told me to do a test that i had done right before i started my work exp! Can't they ever get it right! So i followed school for a few days did my tests and passed on to year 3. And my work exp project? Haven't heard anything about it yet. The teacher said "if your work coordinator think it is okay, we find it okay". Great so now instead of checking to see that i didn't copy my project out of a book, there just going to say its okay because at work they say its okay? Work didn't even know what i was supposed to do! they would have if school contacted them! i probably did my whole project wrong anyway, ahh but who cares anyway? I heard from a friend who goes to the same school but in a different location that a girl in her class just copied the basis guideline book form her work, and got a 7,5 for it. Saying that the whole class got a 7,5. Shows how much they really check...

Anyway enough ranting, of course allot more has happened over the year, but i cant be bothered to talk about it right now, and i can't remember, or don't want to remember half of it. Too traumatic. Let's hope next year will be better, but i doubt it.

::End Rant:: 

After constant moaning of my brother Jemimus i will write a damn blog!!

But I'm only doing this because the game that I'm playing Lineage2 has closed there servers for maintenance. I absolutely love Lineage, and because my brother is using his credit card to pay the game for me i have to write this blog also...Maby i should get a credit card myself -_-'

Like i said i love Lineage, I'm a level 14 Dark Elf atm. I'm planning to become a "Bladedancer" (ohhh i get to wield 2 big frigging swords). I play on server Kain, so if you feel like teaming up with me please do. I'm also joining a clan soon, a friend of mine is the leader...wheee free stuff for me :P

Anyway the main question is why would anybody be interested in reading stuff that i like, its boring as hell. The only person who would be reading this is my brother, or some sad soul lost on the Internet that googeling for the word Lineage, or of course the friends of my brother who are forced to read...So hi friends of my brother o/

mhhh it's difficult to decide what to write about..Should i bore you about talking about my hobbies? Well number 1 would be anime. If you don't know what that is, go use google you lazy arse. I'm watching Wolf's Rain atm. It's about a group of wolf's (that can appear as humans) looking for paradise. The thing is humans think that wolfs have been extinct for over 200 years. It is said that when the world reaches it's end the wolfs will find paradise and live happily ever after...or something along those lines. I'm not that far in the series, but it looks great! i recommend it seriously.

Oh here's a question, my brother and i were discussing about human history. How important is it for is? Is there any great need to know about our past? By learning history do we do anything with this information? Don't get me wrong i love history, but is it really that necessary?

So here you have it my blog! Don't expect me to write soemthing in it everyday...maby every week if your lucky...

And now here's is a random artwork that i have created. I blame playing Final Fantasy VIII and X too much. And just looking forward to          "Final Fantasy VII Advent Children"
