Gotta quote 'em all!

One exam down, four to go.

Just FYI, English went pretty well, certainly better than I'd expected. The close reading was fairly easy and I'm happy with both of my essays. And you know the funny thing? I can no longer remember a single bloody quote!

After the exams, a couple of friends and I trooped into Ayr to buy imported copies of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. We walked there, got the games and started to walk back when the heavens opened, having been merely wedged at a crack beforehand. Suffice it to say that by the time we had contacted my Mum and she arrived to pick us up, we were thoroughly soaked to the skin.

So, we sat an English exam, walked into town, got completely soaked and frozen, were bored out of our minds and then discovered that it was raining practically nowhere else but on top of us, just to acquire a game a couple of months early. Worth it?

Hell, yes.

I've long loved the Pokemon games, ever since an old friend lent me a copy of the then-new Pokemon Red. It was enough to get me hooked and I've remained so ever since. The sheer variety of moves and strategies available blows every other RPG clean out of the water, and I say that when RPGs are amongst my favourite games.

I'll probably have more to say tomorrow, and I may even scrounge together an idea I've had for a woodle, once I've had some sleep. Or beaten the next Gym Leader. The latter will probably take priority.
