State of the Static

Since I haven’t done any significant updates on this blog for a bit, here is some stuff thats been happening.

It’s been about two weeks since school started. The only class I really enjoy is computer programming (even though we are learning C#).

As, you may know I now have a decent PC which I can actually play some games on, so I’ve been doing just that. Here are some of the games I’ve been playing:

  • Assassin’s Creed : Brotherhood - I’m done the story, I just want to get 100% completion before Revelations comes out.
  • Red Orchestra 2 - Heroes of Stalingrad  - one of the hardest FPS games I’ve played
  • Metro 2033 - Honestly I’m just playing this to test my PC. Basically Fallout 3 on steroids.
  • Just Cause 2 - I really liked the first one, the sequel is even better.
  • Dead Island - I don’t really like this game for various reasons, I may play it more when I’m bored of other games.
  • Team Fortress 2 - Absolutely love this game, my favorite classes being : Pyro, Engineer

If anyone wants to play some TF2 with me, add me on Steam - staticsafe2

I also got back into reading more, and one of the books I decided to read (on a whim) was The Monkeyface Chronicles by Richard Scarsbrook. Picked it up from the school library during my spare and I couldn’t put it down. In fact, I finished it the very same day. The book is really nicely written with a very interesting ending. I’m planning on reading more this year.

In other news, I’ve been donating my spare GPU power to folding@home. My team can be found here. I would encourage others to do the same if you have the CPU/GPU power to spare.

That is all for this post. Hopefully I will be posting more regularly, insofar as time allows.
