It’s kinda like that with this blog. Even when I tried as hard as I could to start up the blogging insanity last week over Thanksgiving, I just couldn’t. And there’s a definite reason.

It’s called: the Wii. Darn you, amazing console that gives me hours and hours of enjoyment!

But the question is… what on the Wii has been sucking up my time?

Ever since I bought a friend of mine Guitar Hero for PS2, I was enamored with… wait. Let’s go even further back. Before Guitar Hero. Before Dance Dance Revolution.

There was. Dance Freaks.

Now with a little bit more research, I found out that this little game was called “Dance Maniax”, but the version I played at Regionals for Mu Alpha Theta, the nerdy math club that was, was the Korean one.

If I ever run into one again, I will play it.

I give you, exhibit A:

Another tangent. I miss that MIT shirt. Where are you?

Yet another, who took this picture? And who did I get it from?

Right, so back to the point.

Music + Game + Wildly Flailing Limbs and/or Fingers = Fun

Ever since GH3 came out, this blog fell on the list of priorities. Really really quickly. I guess you could say… GH3 made me buy… the Wii and a TV.

That single game cost me $1K.

Of course, I get other uses out of the Wii and the TV, but the point still stands: the catalyst for the purchase was made because of this game.

Freaking… video games…

This is why I need more control. CONTROL, darn it.

So back to the rest of the post

Right. The little hiatus was fun. It was a good time for refreshment and refocusing. After all, I definitely needed it.

Settling down here in Champaign hasn’t been too rough. It has been kind of interesting seeing old and new faces. Trying to reconnect with some people have been hard, but then again, I’m realizing more and more about relationships in general. (A post… to come… ooh, segue!)

The Date of My Birth

More on this subject later. The post I’ve been working on has been eating away at me all week… it’s turning out to be an opus magnum of sorts… But anyway, expect it, hopefully tonight.

Next Phase: MBA?

One of the many reasons for coming back to Illinois was for the free tuition. I was planning to take some random classes while I was here, anyway… maybe some language ones… or some film classes.

More importantly, though, I was really on the fence about going back to school for an MBA… after all, I wanted to see how far I could go in my endeavors without any “formal” business training “on paper”.

They have a couple of options here at Illinois for this MBA degree. It looks like, though, the only one that will suit my needs… will be the part-time program. This program isn’t covered by the free tuition deal, but there are two scholarships for employees of the University.

But first things first: I will have to restart my GMAT studies. I’ve studied it before, so it won’t be too bad, but I’ll have to pick a test date. Hmm.

Church?

CFC. Oh, CFC.

To sum it all up: I’m “back”. But with an even clearer calling in mind. Still more bitter than sweet, but pushing forth, pushing forth.

Um. More?

I don’t know. What else should I write here to force myself to come back and write more. Make more empty promises? Heh.
