What follows is the revised version of an essay I wrote for the essay portion of my GED practice test last week. The assignment was to write an example of an opinion of your's that has changed over time. Originally, I was docked pretty badly for my essay because I wasn't entirely clear with my thesis in the first paragraph (even though I thought I was) and that I hadn't stated my three main points in the introductory paragraph, either. So I've fixed that and added a little extra content I've...

If Only I...

We have an essay every week in my English class and my English teacher has pushed me pretty hard to help me perfect my writing ability. She saw how much talent I had early on and has since become more proud of me than I ever suspected she would.

Yesterday, she gave me back my "If Only I..." essay (everyone was supposed to write an essay starting with "If Only I..." over the weekend) after having graded it the night before. I had trouble getting past the first...

So, I have a tendency to window shop on Newegg when I'm bored and fantasize about custom computers I want to build. If you're anywhere near as much of a nerd as me, maybe you'll appreciate this.

Valkyrie Profile

Posted 07-18-2011 at 04:28 PM by Rhinehart

First time I played it was on the PSP. A friend of mine had a PSP with Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth. I popped it in and tried it out and got hooked instantly. Didn't have much time to play it, so I got the original PSX version and beat it. I got the pretty basic ending, which is pretty minimalistic on the plot and such, so I wasn't really that impressed with the main plot at the time, but I heard about how to get the A ending sometime after that. And until then, the storytelling for all the einherjar...

So...Yesterday Sucked a Bit

Posted 07-14-2011 at 03:12 PM by Rhinehart

So yeah. It was pouring down rain when I left LCC to get to the bus stop yesterday. On my way, I thought to myself "Wouldn't it be effed up if I missed it?". Big mistake. I checked my phone after I thought that to see what time it was and I'd missed it by a few minutes. Seeing as it was my last free ride home and that I hadn't really made any friends in school yet, I was pretty much screwed.

But eventually, I managed to get online again from a computer in the vocational...
