I've been called back to the States about DDM. I'll be leaving this weekend and I don't know when I'll be back.

This is probably for the best. Maybe the trip away will give me time to get over Shizuka, and sort out my feelings for Vivian.

Wow, I haven't updated this journal in a while. I've been busy with studies, running the shop, getting involved with the DDM add-on Beta tests, and generally keeping the female population satisfied. It's been a little nuts, so this is me apologizing for not keeping in touch with friends. That's right, I'm apologizing. It doesn't happen very often, ( Read more... )

The new term started and I'm beginning to wonder if it was worth signing up for the art & design and business management courses. The qualifications will be very usual, but I'm just going over old ground. I know all this stuff already. I guess I should stick with it. It's only three hours out of my day ( Read more... )

Beaten! I can't believe it. Knocked out of the tournament already and it was only my second duel! Man, how the hell did that happen? I thought I had it in the bag.... But, I guess if I was gonna lose, at least it was to a pretty opponent and not some big jerk like Rishid. Mai-san played like a dream. I gotta give her credit, she knows how to give a ( Read more... )

Mai-san! It looks like it's you and me, baby *grins* I'm really excited, can you tell?

Round two of the tournament has been announced, and there's some interesting matches lined up. I'm hoping there won't be any drama like last time - for me anyway - but I guess there always is at these events. All good publicity though, right?

*eyes widen* Yuugi-kun, have you seen this?

Well, Yami Kami is out. I WON! Lady luck sure must have the hots for ol' Otogi Ryuuji, just like everybody else. But luck doesn't really come into it. The more skilled duelist won, that's all. Congratulations to the other winners, I guess I'll be seeing one of you pretty soon in the arena!

Ow. Man, am I feeling sore this morning! Tables can do that to your back, I guess. I hope I'll be fit to duel, after all, it's Saturday! And the first round of the Tournament begins today! I'm confident that I'll give Katsuya YamiKami a good game, although I am wondering how the fans and other spectators will perceive myself and certain other ( Read more... )

I'm moving back into the shop. Now that it's repaired after that whole storm thing I have no reason to stay at the apartment other than the fact that it's an awesomely cool place to take girls. They really dig it. But it's more convenient if I'm on hand at Black Crown all the time. Apparently some of the staff have been taking liberties in my ( Read more... )

Well, I see the announcement for the first round has been made. This should be one sweet tournament! I'm up against someone called Katsuya YamiKami.... the name doesn't ring any bells. I'd better start putting together my deck. I still got most of my cards, but I'll need to make a trip down to Black Crown for some more ( Read more... )
