@Brink: Are you well prepared now for tomorrow? ;)
Have you applied to collage yet? Do you plan to/have already applied to several different educations, or just one?

@CE-I am pretty prepared for tomorrow :) (or else I wouldn't be here right now, would I? :rolleyes: :p ).

I haven't applied for any college yet though.I'm planning do so after my exams are over :)

@Brink - you could be trying to procrastinate and spamming although you should study! ;)

So, what education are you going to apply to? Can you specialize in aerodynamics and plane construction from the start, or do you study general subjects first and specialise later?
It's going to be great the 26th when you have a long period of relaxing :) And something exciting to look forward to in your social life :)

Hey, who told you that??!! :mad: You should not believe these vile and evil rumours about me... :rolleyes: :p :D

Anyway, I'll still be taking some general subjects for college (I think specialisation is only available at University-Levelled education :) )

@Brink: LOL :D So, what plans do you have for your vacation, apart from playing ToB and *ehrm* social excitement? ;) :D

@CE-Oh, and I found out that she'll also be on a gaming spree after the exams (she's using a different gaming platform though.... :D :) )

@Brink: She is interested in gaming? Great! :D Can't you arrange something and play together? Even if she uses another platform, perhaps she would be interested to try out PC games? :D

Of course other kind of activities are more fun than gaming for "romantic" purposes, but gaming with a loved one if a lot of fun too - I have played the whole BG and IWD series multiplayer with my husband :)

@CE-Yeap :) :D .I hope that I'll get a new comp in December to link up with my old one :) :D (then I can finally play LAN games with someone in the comfort of my own home :D )

@Harry: I actually liked the sorceress too - all my friends told me she was so weak and difficult to play, but I had no problems at all, I think I got killed only 2-3 times on normal level and I'm not even a powergamer, I just have a fast mouse-finger :D

@Brink: I hope you get a new comp :) I see a perfect setting for you in the future - a long vacation and you are both interested in gaming :D

I have to go now, see you both later - bye!

What do you think of it? I saw it on Friday on the front of Harry Potter... 6 months till release and they're trailing it already!! Personally I wasn't all that impressed. I don't like Anakin, he seems far too sleazy!! :D

@Georgi - It was ok - the one I found was the one with the short images and (what I presume) was Darth Vader breathing in the background. I thought the lord of the rings one was better - that looks really good.

Hows the work going?

Sounds like a different one then... The cinematic one really focuses on the whole love story thing "Anakin, how you've grown!" <insert inappropriate joke here> :D and then a few Anakin turning bad bits at the end... and the usual wow look at our great FX stuff. I just hope it's better than Phantom Menace...

Yeah, saw LotR trailer as well, for the first time, and it looks impressive. Tickets go on sale tomorrow! (At least at my local multiplex...) :D

Work? Oh, yeah, that work :o Well, I was working, but then I decided to make pizza instead :D Which actually turned out quite well for a change (usually when I make homemade pizza it's not very nice), but by the time it was done I wasn't really hungry anymore :rolleyes: I've eaten less than half of it...

How are you this evening? :)

LOL! :D

I am pretty good, bit tired after a good night out last night :rolleyes: and wanting another day before monday!

Can I have some of your pizza if you don't want it!

Oh, BTW I found a copy of civ 3 for 19.99 off the internet, if anyone is interested I can post the link of how to get there.

I'm not kidding, Amidala does actually say that in the trailer :D

Oh well, who cares about being tired if it was a good night out? ;) I haven't had a night out this weekend, my bank balance is struggling as it is. Serves me right for spending too much money on CDs though :rolleyes: Still, only 10 days till my 21st, I'll be able to make up for it then :D

Sure, help yourself to pizza :D

Nice offer, but I'm not buying any more games at the moment, I already have several I haven't even installed... ;)

*stuffs face with pizza*

Mmmm...mmmurg....mmmhhh

*gets rid of food in mouth to be comprehensible*

I tried to download the Lord of the Rings trailor but it was 12MB and it would take too long. I will wait til I go to the cinema again. Do you know what the uk release date is?

I am waiting to see how good the delivery off the internet is with civ3, as I may do my christmas shopping on it as Nottingham is getting really busy now.

What are you researching?
