Remember how I said I wasn’t going to talk about my GPA anymore? I lied. Final grades for Fall Semester 2003: EBUS-3180: Website Design for Business Communications — AENGL-3050: Persuasive Writing — AENGL-4080: Writing Workshop-Fiction — AENGL-4090: Current Writing Theory — AFILM-3350: Screenwriting I — A Grade Point Average for Semester: 4.0Cumulative GPA through 29 courses/90 credit hours: FOUR POINT FUCKING OH. Don’t ask me how I pulled this one off, because at this point even I’m not sure. All I have to say is…
This is Sean Shannon’s Infantile Sports Whine of the Day: Stupid Bengals … stupid Browns … stupid lousy officiating … stupid season … stupid hopes I got up … stupid football … stupid sports … stupid Kitna … stupid Corey … This has been Sean Shannon’s Infantile Sports Whine of the Day. Tell your friends.
New on Backwash: “Great Big Dancing Dork”. Yes, I’ve gotten so far into Dance Dance Revolution that I just had to talk about it on Backwash, and even that got me overly self-conscious. I don’t know if this is a column about Dance Dance Revolution or my neuroses. Either way, go read it, and someone tell me when the Bengals game is over because I can’t bear to watch it at this point.
Okay, when it came to stuff that was on my list I didn’t get as much as I wanted — the folks pretty much went on their own notions of what they thought I wanted/needed, and I only got two of the things I explictly asked for, one of which was Final Fantasy X-2, which I’m sure I’ll have a fun time playing if I can ever tear myself away from DDR. But the other thing … the other thing made the wait for today…
Holy crap, is Dance Dance Revolution the most fun ever. Not the kind of fun I’m ever going to show anybody, mind you, but playing by myself it’s like … where has this been all my life? I have great fun, I get a good workout, I’m challenged without getting frustrated … what’s not to love? Anyway, happy holidays to one and all. It’s looking like a pretty good Christmas is shaping up here in the Shannon household, and hopefully I’ll have a full prezzie…
