So I've been up since about 4 am this morning, and I'm not exactly sure why. I've been sleeping awkwardly for the past week or so, either waking up on and off or simply not being able to sleep at all. To tell you the truth, it's getting old. I actually like sleeping. Not sure if it's due to heat or stress. Maybe a combination of both. It's been getting hotter as of late, then again, the last couple nights were relatively chilly so I'm not sure. I start my job working for Yale on the 3rd of May, which is this coming Monday. I'll be working with the catering crew. I'm supposed to have a white buttoned down shirt, black dress pants, and dress shoes. I got the pants covered, but of course I still need the shirt and shoes. I'm probably stressing out over that. Not so much because of the clothes, but I've never actually been trained for the job. I'm not sure if they're going to train me while I'm on the job, which I hope and seems most likely, or if they'll just throw me in there and say "Do this." I have a history of getting nervous when trying new things. Probably due to all kinds of discouraging statements made by people calling me a constant fuck up, though that was mostly when I was younger, it still kind of holds me back from doing a lot more even to this day. I've come to find that I'd rather avoid doing something all together than failing at it. Probably not the best way to live, and it's probably something I should work on. I don't even know why I picked now to talk about some of my personal issues. Must be the lack of sleep.
In Youtube news, expect pretty much the same deal. New episode of Pokemon FireRed today as well as a new episode of DKGB. To be honest, I'm really looking forward to narrating the next episode of DKGB since we're covering my favorite area of the game, The Tower. It has a lot of my favorite levels and easily my favorite song in the entire game. My favorite song plays during the penultimate fight with Donkey Kong. Yes, I said penultimate. I said we were getting close to the end of the series, and a video goes up today and the final one goes up tomorrow. Anyway, the song is called Showdown at the Tower. What kills me is there hasn't been a single remix of this song, at all. Not even a shitty tecno remix. The song has not been touched whatsoever, which is suprising since this song seems like it's begging for a rock/metal arrangement. Why the hell they wouldn't remix this track for Super Smash Bros. Brawl I'll never know, especially considering they make references to the game with items like the Super Hammer. Seriously, remixers of the world, remix that song already. I don't care for another remix from Mega Man 2, or Sonic the Hedgehog. Give me a remix of that song.
So a lot of people have been asking me if I plan on getting Super Street Fighter IV and the answer is a definitive "no." I already own the original Street Fighter IV, and I refuse to pay another $40.00 for a game that simply has 10 more characters and a few tweaks. You'll have to add a lot more to the table to make me consider paying that much. They should have added Super stuff as DLC for the original game. You'd have to be really stupid or filthy rich to buy the new version of the game after already having purchased the old version of the game. To be perfectly honest, it shouldn't cost anything above $25.00 max. Sorry, but 3D models, new stages, and new characters don't justify paying an extra $40.00. Seriously, if you do the math, I had to pay $50.00 for the first game. That means I would have paid $90.00 worth of Street Fighter. To be perfectly honest, that's not exactly worth it. Don't get me wrong, I love Street Fighter, but not enough to pay that kind of money. If anything, it sounds like Capcom is punishing those who bothered buying the first game when you think about it. It completely makes the original Street Fighter IV obsolete. Hell, you can't even carry over your trophies and records from the original game. You have to start from scratch. Why are you punishing the original buyers Capcom? It makes no sense to me, and probably never will.
No wrestling last night. Superstars is on tonight but that show is more of a showcase of the midcard rather than a regular show like Raw/Smackdown. As far as music goes, not sure what I'll be listening to today. Probably a random hodgepodge of different music. Listening to the Legacy theme song from Adelitas Way. It's actually really catchy, even if I wouldn't listen to this band normally. Anyway, that's pretty much going to wrap today's entry up. Like usual, enjoy the playlist and take care.
