Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Lately I've been reading books more...I think because of my latest male trouble. I find myself thinking about him more than what is healthy, and I need something to get him out of my mind. So instead I submerse myself in someone else's reality...right now it's The Lovely Bones by Alice Seabold. It's really well written, from the perspective of a fourteen-year-old girl who was raped and murdered and then chopped up into bits by her neighbor. It's mostly told from her view from her "heaven", which is a bit less religious and angelicky as I originally feared. A good read.

Another thing I've been doing more is gaming. I'm a decently big video game geek, but I haven't played as much as I used to because of the lack of new games to beat. So I'm back to old-school stuff.
Columns was put onto the Sega Genisis eons ago, and nothing sums this game up better than to say its the perfect game to impress friends with without needing actual skill. A design flaw in the game allows combos that are insanely easy to get, and you can still change the order of the colors after the block stops. I managed to get past level 50 on pure dumb luck.

I haven't spoken to him for almost two days now. He's made himself scarce and I think I'm afarid of upcoming awkwardness. A tiny bit of me is a bit curious to know if he's read these journal postings too, as he's on Gaia (one reason that I've refrained from using his name).I have no idea what his reaction would be, though.
