I might have done a Skyward Strike and just spin attacked to launch it making more work for myself.

I cannot seem to remember. I fought the boss again using the method you and Kezia used, and that seemed to work way better. Had I read your post earlier (Sean's post that is), I would have experimented more when fighting him again!

Really, I think Skyward Sword is good but perhaps I am nitpicking or have way too high expectations. I am hoping it will be a game I will look back fondly on afterwards. I might have felt the same way about Twilight Princess, but seem to have fond memories after playing it a second time. Maybe it will age well? Hopefully?

Also, I have a love/hate relationship with the Spirit Realms. I HATE them if I fail them at all and have to retry. But love them if I have several close calls and just barely pass them.

I can see what Alex is saying. The DS games made you do things/puzzles in the areas before the temples. This game makes you do that as well it seems. The temples seem simple too, but I could just be too used to Zelda temples now.

Sean, I hear Spirit Tracks is supposed to be much better than Phantom Hourglass although, Phantom Hourglass was so disappointing that I have little faith in what Spirit Tracks might have to offer.

I liked the new Los Campesinos! a lot actually. Every time they come out with something my initial reaction is always kind of meh but upon repeated listens I usually like it better.
I might have heard the new Gambino but I'm not sure. I downloaded his discography a few months ago so if it's come out since then no.

I do love the new Black Keys album too. It's pretty good.

Errr I don't know the exact release date, so you may/may not have it. I feel like it came out in November maybe?

Oooooh yeah I forgot about that, I haven't given it a proper listen but I've enjoyed the parts I've heard.

The What Top 10 has been shit, every damn day, all of 2011.

I'm just tired of seeing all the damn Phish liverips every day they're on tour. I use the Top 10 mainly to see leaks I wouldn't otherwise know about and I feel like every time those concerts top it out, I miss something important.

Empirical Pussy · « **Reply #6063 on:** January 04, 2012, 07:52:30 PM »

I used to grab a lot of the top 10 albums on a whim if they had tags that appealed to me. Found some nice stuff on there.

Oh christ I know right? Who knew so many people liked Phish...

I have a 20 minute presentation on Wednesday and a 60 minute presentation on Friday. This is on the second week of school. Both presentations are for the same class.

Although, it is totally my fault. I could have spaced them out, but my group members (I am working with different people for each presentation) convinced me to get them out of the way.

I am already drowning in schoolwork and I am only a week in. Ugh.

Sliced halfway through my finger with broken glass the other day while washing (read: breaking) dishes. This whole ~adult life~ is too tough for me.

Fuck trying to find a job. My college has this my career centre thing but so far it's been pretty useless.

THE ONLY PART-TIME JOB THERE I'M QUALIFIED FOR IS HELPING AN OLD LADY GET DRESSED

This. Except I'm actually graduating into hopefully full-time employment in four months.

Hey good luck bro! Weren't you going to Cambridge? Honestly you should be able to work just about anywhere imaginable with a degree from there.

Rosti LFC · « **Reply #6075 on:** February 16, 2012, 10:15:07 AM »

You'd think that, but most of the places I'm aiming at are fairly attractive to plenty of other Cambridge graduates as well.

I'm in a really awkward spot at the moment where the handful of companies I've applied for are being awkwardly slow getting back to me, and the wider range of opportunities are starting to close off and hire people. I feel like I either have to make a decision to settle for a job that I wouldn't like quite so much, or risk not getting one at all.

Yeah, and I thought you were going for engineering of some sort too, that's an epic combo right there. I wouldn't fret over it too much. There are only so many graduates from places like Cambridge and Oxford in the world. I would think that as long as you don't dick around for a good 5 years and let your skills get rusty there's a good shot at landing a position where you would want. On the flip side there's no reason why you couldn't work for a less-desirable place in the meantime.

The United States would probably kill to have you come here and work with an engineering degree from anywhere, especially Cambridge. There's always that. :')

One of our course directors actually got an email from an Apple HR person asking specifically for people who do our course (and there's only 36 of us in a year) because they'd had a couple of graduates before and apparently they were awesome. The job was actually in California, and I probably would have applied if it wasn't for the fact that I'd rather not work for Apple and the job role (materials engineering and research) wasn't entirely appealing.

Hope you get that vibrator designing job!
