Shit! It was cold this morning! We don't have any kind of centralized heat and we weren't ready, haha. The space heaters are now humming away in the living room and kitchen and I'll be breaking out the heated blanket. And I'm going to get up on the roof and clean out the chimney before we can use the wood burning stove. Aaahh, I love cold weather but I'm very unprepared for it. ;3;

Nintendo shared a picture of their Switch and 3DS 2017/early 2018 releases!



Aaaahhh. ;3; Fire Emblem Warriors, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (I never played the first one because I've never owned a WiiU but I've heard it was great), Octopath Traveler, Strange Journey Redux (I've never played Strange Journey so it's a new game to me!).

It's really awesome that although the Switch is now a thing, Nintendo is still releasing games for the 3DS. That's pretty great, good for you Nintendo. :3

I had a bit of a freakout on Monday and ended up not going to Spanish. It's passed midterms and I have an F in that class. I'm going to drop it, most likely, with full support from people who matter, but I'm not really looking forward to facing my advisor or the professor. I just. I've been a Dean's List student for most of my college career and I'm losing it right here at the end and I'm so disappointed with myself and I'm so disappointed with this school. I'm just. Ugh.

I don't have any of those nintendo systems so this is just a depressing reminder of what I can't has lol, but I'm excited still by some of the titles - is that a new Layton game??? And I'm itching to know how Skyrim will play on the Switch. *-* I'll prob end up watching youtubers play it to find out. (Oh man, that's gonna be dope to see a resurgence of yters playing Skyrim again! Ahhhhhhhh!!!! I'm so glad I've been playing so I can participate in the fandom resurrection that will hopefully happen. Not that it's dead necessarily, just quieter.)

Hey, if dropping Spanish makes you a happier, healthier person, then don't worry about the rest. =) No one will think of less of you for struggling with a class, no one's perfect.

And like, jfc, I've no idea why spanish is so hard sometimes? I, for one, grew up around spanish native speakers. My actual ability to speak spanish, however? x.x Horrendous. I can't make my mouth wrap around all the words and I tend to not know/completely forget words to pull together a complicated sentence in spanish. I can read it and understand it pretty well however, which seems super strange to me, but maybe it's not? (And I manage to get a 90-something percent on my spanish proficiency test in middle school, but I have no idea HOW. I think the teacher pitied my simple little mind. x.x Granted, she was a mean teacher so I dunno.) So yeah, no worries if you're struggling. =)

Really looking forward to Octopath Traveler, and I've never played Strange Journey or Radiant Historia, so I'm really looking forward to giving these updates a shot too.

I'm sorry to hear about the school drama. The most important thing to remember is that you've gotta look out for your health-- and mental health is of the utmost importance-- over all else.

I have Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii, and it's pretty fun. The graphics are really outdated though. The Wii U version (Xenoblade Chronicles X) is a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles I believe.

I think it's great that Nintendo is still releasing games for the 3DS as well. I will say that I'm a Switch owner though so I'm still salty about the lack of virtual console on it. My friend owns a 3DS though, and she loves it. I've thought about getting one myself until I bought a Switch that is...lol.

The First Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii and New 3DS is one of my favorite games. It's what got me back into the hobby. I def recommend it! If you've got a New 3DS, I'd recommend it there. THere's a bit of a graphical step-down from the Wii game, but 'DAT PORTABILITY FACTOR. The Wii U game, Xenoblade Chronicles X, was def well made, it just wasn't really my thing, as it was WAY too much about questing and customization and sacrificed story and warmth because of this. This new game is supposed to be going back to the narrative focus of the original, but I'm not sure HOW directly connected they are. Pretty excited for it (though I am not so keen on the character designs *_*)

I hope Nintendo keeps the 3DS alive as long as possible. It's a system with I've got a special place in my heart for, and while I can recognize how limited the hardware must feel by now, but I'm still kind of not ready for it all to be over. I do love my Switch though.

Do you need Spanish to graduate?

I'm sorry to hear about school. Hopefully you can pick up the class another time. Or find something else that works better for you.

It's still hot here. I'm looking forward to next week when it is supposed to be in the high 80s.
