M.I.A.

I feel as though I owe you all an explanation or so. See, I haven't been blogging all that much recently. Real life has been, well, not that interesting to talk about. I post on my blog about things that I find interesting, when I feel I can be informative, or when I feel creative. As of late, nothing I've been doing has really qualified for me making a quality post. I do, occasionally post, but I don't really feel, enthusiastic about it, ranting or talking a lot about something that I find uninteresting.

I will, tell you what I've been doing though. UFS : Universal Fighting System. It's a card game. Seriously. It's a card game about 1 on 1 fighting games, and currently has Street Fighter and Soul Calibur III as the two games in the franchise. And it means Universal. You can mix and match the cards, having both sets in a single deck. I won't go into the mechanics really, but basically, you choose a character from your deck, and that's who you are during that fight.

Anyways, that plus Cold Snap, the new Expansion to Magic: the Gathering came out last weekend, and it's a very fun set. It's actually, a revisit to Ice Age, almost 10 years ago. The block was never finished (it was the first 'block', so they didn't know what they were really doing back then). So, they finally finished it, but cards from Cold Snap are still type 2, so even though you can play Ice Age block with them, you can also play Type 2 with them (trust me, this sounds boring, but for Magic players, this is really amazing).

Nerdiness aside, I should start working again within a few weeks, and my freinds from college are having it's annual (well, 2+ times per summer, does that really count?) beach outings. It'll just be a few of us nerds, people who played magic, did fencing, role playing, etc. We're normal people, trust me. Seriously. Hey, where are you going!? Come back here! ... Ok, now that you're back, I was about to say, it's 2 Saturdays from now, and I'll most likely go because I haven't gone since 2 years ago, and this will be the last one this summer. I haven't seen some of these people for 6+ months, so it'll be refreshing... Although LA water isn't really all that tantalizing, and my hair feels gross after swimming in it, and gets tangled... I'll probably just help build the sand castle, eat, dig holes, and just hang around. Do a few lunges as we fence, dig a few pits for the moat, and just have a good time.

Until next time, this is your friendly local Bad Critiq, with nothing very interesting to post, so he rants and rants and rants and omg there he goes again bye!
