I have far too many games going on right now. At the moment I am playing Operation Flashpoint; Dragon Rising, Need for Speed: Shift, Halo 3 (Multiplayer), and Halo 3: ODST (Firefight & starting another Campaign again). In the next couple of weeks I am getting some games as well such as Uncharted 2: Among Theives (October 13th), Brutal Legend (October 13th, still a bit undecided), and Borderlands (October 20). That's not even taking into account the month of November: Dragon Age: Origins (November 3rd), Modern Warfare 2 (Novemebr 10th), Assassin's Creed 2 (November 17th), and Left 4 Dead 2 (November 17th). It is all too much! I almost feel guilty spending so much money on all these games. I have been trying to save money up but all these games keep coming out .

I was supposed to work from 1:30 to 9:00 p.m. this evening but decided to call in as I am still not feeling too well. Most of the symptoms have gone away but I still have a slight fever and I don't want to get everyone else sick. Unfortunately, tonight was meant to be a training night for my new promotion coming in a couple of weeks. I can always train another night, but I will most likely need to miss a night of school for that. O well, it will work itself out.

I have been a little under the weather these past couple of days and today I had to work while still sick. It was a pretty long day. I have to work all day tomorrow as well so hopefully it goes by quick.

I was speaking to KingBurnz about this last night. I was telling him about how much my textbooks for my classes are going to cost. I need to purchase 4 textbooks and have been looking online for used ones since they are cheaper. My books are going to cost around $348 . Now is it just me or is that outrageous?! That is almost what I paid for tuition this semester! I hate how expensive schooling has become .

Spent today (yesterday for those of you in the UK ) with my friends Trebor, Nimrod, and KingzBurnz . We spent the earlier part of the day playing Horde mode on Gears of War 2 trying to get the Skeletons In Your Closet achievement; this was for beating the first 10 waves on each of the 5 flashback maps. After about 3 hours of horde, we took a break and then we switched to Burnout Paradise, minus Trebor unfortunately . Nothing like spending the day playing with your friends eh guys? Here's to more group play days soon! Cheers .
