Super Mario RPG
Monday, March 8th, 2010There’s been a major update, in my video games collection, lately. As I was browsing through the flea market, I stopped by a video games store to see if I could get some games at cheap prices. I’ve bought Geist for GameCube. Then I came across this:

Super *freaking* Mario RPG!
This really made my day. I was looking for Super Mario RPG since years. Of course, I saw several copies for sales in specialized stores, but they prices were always from $70 to $90. I almost fell on my ass, when I saw it at $45. They must be kidding me, I was thinking. But there was no joke; they really asked for this price. At this moment, I heard a voice in my head saying “BUY IT”. Buy it, because you’ll never see it at that price for the rest of your life. Then, this is were most of my flea market money went. I only played this game once in my life, I remember renting it at a local video club and I thought it was a 3-D Mario game. Being a kid, I somehow found this game deceiving. I didn’t understand the concept of RPGs and my lack of knowledge for the English language would have probably made that game more complicated that it was to me. Little I know that this game would turn up to be one of the most-looked SNES cartridges. I guess that’s both the elements of rarity and RPG, which makes me want this game so bad. Well, I’m glad to have finally found it. Now, I’ll have to check for Final Fantasy III and Secret of Mana. By the way, for those of you wondering, the game works very fine. Finally, this will be all for today. End of line.
I turned 24.
Saturday, December 5th, 2009I turned 24, this week, on December 3. It was a crazy week, on December 2 we learned that Maya, my older sister’s 4 years old Bernese Mountain dog, has developed a very bad form of Cancer and she doesn’t have much to live. This saddened me a lot; I love that dog. Then, on December 3, as we were celebrating my birthday, my sister called to tell us that she was pregnant! I’m gonna be an aunt!! Therefore, those were bad news followed by good ones. It was a weird birthday.
Now, let’s get back to my birthday. We celebrated it with the yummiest cake ever:

Pink frosting with colored stars. Because I’m a girl, of course!
As a gift, I received something I’ve been wanting for a while: a new desk chair. Finally!

What’s on the chair?
If you’re wondering what is on the chair, it’s none other than a copy of Super Mario 64 that my uncle and aunt gave me.

I wanted this one since forever!
Actually, we used to own that game until my sister decided to take our Nintendo 64 as her complete property and store it in the back of a closet at her flat. Then, I had to buy my own gaming console and I couldn’t stop arguing with her that I should own our cartridge of Super Mario 64, but she didn’t want to give it to me. C’mon, she’s not even playing any video games. How can you own a gaming console and not using it? She’s only doing that to be selfish toward me. Well, thanks to my uncle and aunt for finding me a copy of that game. I’ll never forget their kindness.
Finally, that would be all for now. This was me updating my blog from my new desk chair. End of line.
