for GTA, maybe. But Rockstar does have a penchant for making occasionally nonsensical decisions. For instance, Red Dead Redemption never saw a PC release, despite having all the elements to make a great PC game.

Listening to a bunch of Phineas and Ferb songs. Favorite one is the one where Phineas sings about summer to alternate dimension versions of himself and Ferb.

General right now, but I'm gathering credits to transfer into a Physics & Astronomy degree.

...I don't like calculus. ;<

Yeah it's fairly hairy. I like Maths in general but I despise Maths related exams and tests. I did a Calculus module in first year, parts of it were interesting, but it really wasn't a fun time.

Well at least you didn't have to deal with three different professors in a single semester of Calculus. I was completely thrown out of my depth as a result of the constant teaching style changes, since each of the first two changed their agendas and subsequently dropped us onto someone else. questions were never even close to similar, and the last professor to show up [two weeks before the final], in charge of teaching us what to expect on the final, taught in a completely different LANGUAGE. IIRC, about 2/3s to 3/4s of the class walked out of that semester with Fs, myself among them. >.<

Funnily enough, I did for Calc 1 actually. Nothing as bad as that though, haha. Our original professor broke her wrist halfway through. A temp came in for the next few days, before an actual calculus teacher was found to replace the first, for the rest of the semester.

lol. Well, after that I basically went '**** you guys, I'm going somewhere I can be independent of my professors' skills'. 4 years down the line, I'm studying Linguistics, planning to take it all the way up to Ph.D level in time. Getting As and A-s on average, with the rare, occasional B+ if I do particularly badly on a certain course. :>

I want a top hat. I intend to get one at some point. Not even a joke, $5 one either. a proper professionally made fitted top hat. Maybe a monocle too, for effect.

Lol. Well, had this account not worked, you could contact me via e-mail. I'd manually change the password if need be.

As I understand it, that's going to be more of a reboot than anything.
I'll go see it either way. I mean, it can only get better from... there (yeah, you know where)... yeah?
