Still haven't played Resident Evil...

Star Fox 64, Star Wars Podracer and Shadows of the Empire, and of course the Mario games. They're actually so amazing ... I love how in Super Mario 64 you can canon to the roof of the castle and you see Yoshi and he gives you 100 mushroom lives! Good times .

Anyways.

Ah yes, the dreaded math course!

What are your favourite games?

Aww, that sucks, especially because you're starting the new year with them!

Haha, totally agree with you there.

Yeah, I don't have a job either...

...or a PS3, but I would love to buy one too. I've still got my N64, though , I'm trying to find Ocarina of Time.

I haven't seen either yet (want to!), but I'm seeing 127 Hours tonight.

I've already been back for a week . Enjoy your last days of freedom! What are you planning on doing?

Yeah, the movie did a great job of putting that on the screen .

Nice, what did you watch?

I didn't know about it until the day before! I'm sure a lot of people didn't know either .

Did you finish the book?

New Year's Eve was nice, I visited my grandparents for dinner, and then I had another dinner with relatives on New Year's Day .

How was yours?

I meant the music video by A7X - the Rev passed away a year ago on Dec. 28th, so fans watched the Nightmare music video to remember him, something like that... when I watched it there was a new comment every second!

Haha, I've never seen Nightmare Before Christmas either . I did see The Road last night, it was a really powerful movie.

Happy New Year to you too!

I had a turkey dinner with mine as well, it was great.

Are you going to watch the Nightmare mv today?

Yeah, our music tastes are as different as possible , he hates all of my bands...

You're welcome, how did you spend Christmas Day?

Haha, yeah . He's obsessed with Japanese and Korean pop (), so I managed to find some magazines and books in Japanese about his favourite boy bands ...

That's nice, are they in Mexico?

Thanks , Merry Christmas to you too!

Yeah, he is - Pan's Labyrinth was awesome.

Just Christmas shopping. I've been out all morning looking for something for my brother!

Now I'm going out again to find more gifts.

What about you?

Aww, that sucks ...

Haven't heard of the book, but if he's making a movie out of it I'm interested now!

Yeah, probably not.

Yes!

Aww, that's too bad, it would be great in theatres. What about 127 Hours? Will you be able to see that?

Yeah, I haven't read them in a long time too. Maybe I should give them another chance...

Haha, yeah "I'd like to thank... Charles Darwin" . I hope Chris will be there to accept an award with them, though...

That's good. Mmmm, chicken soup ...

One of the actresses in the Book of Eli is in Black Swan, are you going to see that?

Yeah, I think the book versions are usually better than the movies... the only exception I can think of right now is the Lord of the Rings series, I could never get through all the books .

Haha, I know what you mean. I pretty much only watch the Oscars. Although Muse is up for awards at the Grammys - I'll probably watch that...

Aww, no! Is it the flu?

Apparently it was like The Book of Eli with Denzel Washington, but better.

It paled in comparison to the book, and it was a different kind of humour that I didn't really like ...

All except the last two episodes, and I've really enjoyed it so far . I hope it wins at the Golden Globes.

... reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJF95oZYTCo

I'd be a total fail, though .

Haha, thanks, I hope you get time to relax too!

Haven't read the book before, but apparently the movie was really good. Yeah, it sounds pretty dark...

A more lighthearted book that is one of my favourites is the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy . The movie version was pretty bad, though .

Have you been keeping up with The Walking Dead?

That's cool , I used to play violin. Then I switched to the dark side ...

Haha, I want to play guitar too - then again, I also want to learn piano and drums ...

Haha, you're welcome!

...I'll go by what your sig says, so - do you play the violin? (I play the viola )

Happy Birthday!

I think I'll be a bit overwhelmed, actually!

Haha, that's good . I've only got a week left too. Can't wait for the break, lots of movies to watch .

Awesome, it's been a great year for me too .

Yeah...

That's nice, pretty much what I'm doing too.

Haha, maybe ... although I'll probably be in Tokyo for a while, and it's HUGE. Its got a larger population than all of Canada...

How was your english presentation yesterday?

I don't really know yet. As much as I can, I guess! I'll try to brush up on my Japanese, mostly forgotten by now... maybe I'll go on a hike and climb Mt. Fuji . That would take a loooong time.

What are you planning on doing over winter break?

That's cool . Everyone in my family is only a quick drive away. (...actually I have distant relatives in Japan but I don't know who they are .)

Yeah, that's really awful, sad...

Ahh, okay .

Yeah, can't wait! I'll be there for about 3 weeks.

Mexico's got great snorkeling . Where did you go when you were there?

Yeah, I guess it would be kind of hard to explain .

No problem .
