Nier Review

Emil (back), Nier and Kaine (front)... obliterated a pack of feral wolves.

"Weiss, you dumbass! Start making sense you rotten book, or you're gonna be sorry! Maybe I'll rip your pages out one-by-one, or maybe I'll put you in the goddamn furnace! How can someone with such a big, smart brain get hypnotized like a little bitch huh?! Oh, Shadowlord! I love you Shadowlord! Come over here and give Weiss a big sloppy kiss, Shadowlord! Now pull your head out of your goddamn ass and START FUCKING HELPING US!"

This is the intro to world of Nier. Those words were uttered by Kaine, the girl ally in the game. From my initial review:

Diary of a Returning Gamer #7

It's been a while since I'm done this post. A lot has happened since the last one. For starters, the Playstation Network broke down, leaving PS3 players unable to connect online. Sony gave out a compensation package with two free PS3 games, two free PSP games (out of 5 for both, if I remember correctly), Some freebie I don't remember, and 1 month of Playstation Plus. I didn't get the 1 month Plus subscription. I was on vacation in the Philippines and was too late to claim that one. At least I got Infamous, Wipeout HD, and two PSP games that I don't remember off the top of my head. I don't have a PSP, but I bought the Kingdom Hearts bundle for my youngest sister. I figured I'd download these games so she can have them, you know?

Woken Up When September Ends

Another month has come and passed.
The gloomy days, they never last.
Woken up when September ends.

What can I say?

For the most part, September has been autumnal: Rainy and gloomy. Not much has happened. I went shopping at an outlet mall with my youngest sister and parents on Labor day. Besides that, there's the part where my job contract with our client ended. I've been on bench now for almost a month. I've been looking for work in other companies. This "headhunter" company has been working with me to get a job that's contract to permanent, depending on project needs. They got me a job interview at T. Rowe Price. The interview went well, but they're looking for someone more senior and with more experience.
