school, i hope you die. in a fire. slowly.

So tired....Got most of my work done; everything, actually, and then some. With the exception of Calc, which I actually was supposed to do for tomorrow. Doesn't really matter, considering he doesn't collect it until Friday. I'll do it, eventually. But I seriously got up at 8, started working, and didn't quite working until 6. Then it was BioShock binge time. Plowed through a lot more of the game, and I'm on the last zone. Weird, cause it feels kinda short. Relative to something like the singleplayer for Gears, it's long enough, time wise, and in terms of the amount of places there are to move around and do things, but the world still feels smaller than it ought to, there isn't quite as much to do as you'd think, other than messing around with the gazillions of different plasmids. But really, there's so much more infrastructure in Rapture (or there should be), I wish I could go run around the engine rooms of the place, things like that - prowl through abandoned apartment blocks and stuff. It'd be both creepy and add a lot of space. I guess I feel like it should have all of the open space of an RPG, rather than the more shooter-like confines that it does have. I just wish there were some non-story related areas where you could run around and do things, the sorta stuff that I didn't really care about in Final Fantasy, et al., but here, with the combat far more entertaining (though still not spectacular), I want more to do. I guess I'm not done, yet, but still...Of course I'm going to have to play through it again on Hard so that I really have to mess around with the way you fight Big Daddies and whatnot, but it's just kinda feeling a little shallow right now. but again, I'm not done yet and there may still be a bunch to do. Great game overall, though.

Anyway, I was going to start working on an essay about WCATY and school and the differences between them, but I'm rather tired and I think I'll just go to bed instead.

After I make a brief Other Book entry, that is.
