My 2014 in a nutshell
I've had quite a productive year. Not only have I attended the usual fur-meets and StreetPass UK events in Leeds and Manchester (and also Button Mash in Bradford), but I've also been doing a fair amount of acting and performing. I was in, not one, but three different stage productions, two of which were with one amateur drama & theatre group and ( Read more... ) -
My 2013 in brief
I almost can't believe it's been just over a year since I last updated this LJ. Anyone would think I've been so depressed all this time over my Grandma's passing that I stopped coming here altogether. Not so. I've simply been busy with loads of things and hanging around other places as usual. I won't bore anyone who still reads this, so I'll just ( Read more... ) -
RIP Grandma
My Mum has just rung me and told me that my Grandma has passed away. She went peacefully with her two sons by her side. She was 93. Her 94th birthday was only 2 months away ( Read more... ) -
"Tweet, tweet!", said the dragon
As the headline suggests, I am now registered on Twitter, after several months of debating whether or not I wanted an account. You can follow me here (but you'll need to be registered yourself in order to see my tweets): http://twitter.com/Emeraldo_DragonRead more... ) -
(Untitled)
Well, after nearly 2 weeks of not having any central heating, my Dad got a new pump for the boiler and fitted it in last night. Man, it feels so nice to have proper room temperature again. It was so cold living at 14-16°C that it just felt extremely unnatural to me. -
Holy crap! I'm still here!
OK, I don't care if no one reads this. I'm still going to update it anyway.
Believe it or not, I've been wanting to update this thing since January this year, but who would've thought that I would put it off until the end of the year? Not me, that's for sure. The reasons? Well, let's start from the top:
1. After an age and a half, I've finally ( Read more... ) -
Just so you know I'm not dead...
Wow. I can't believe it's been nearly 9 months since I last updated this. My priorities sure have changed this year. I bet everyone's forgotten about me here. You most likely won't believe me when I say this, but I've been DESPERATELY trying to get back on here since the summer. However, my addiction to YouTube and Facebook have been far too great ( Read more... ) -
Is it just me...
...Or did Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth seem a bit on the easy side? I mean, I got the game on its release date in Europe (19 February) and had been playing it non-stop, and I ended up completing it after only 6 days. Some of the contradictions, "correct evidence" and logic parts I was able to figure out straight away, and the rest ( Read more... ) -
Forgot to mention...
I pre-ordered both versions of Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver last week. Now, I know the European versions come out only 12 days after the American versions, but I decided to import the American versions anyway because they're much cheaper to me on Play Asia than they are on Amazon UK or Play.Com, since my currency is the pound sterling (GBP).

HALLELUJAH!!! Our prayers are FINALLY answered!
Remember when Sega showed us a little something called Project Needlemouse a few months ago? Well, look what it turned out to be!
(Look at the Sonic 2 section of this trailer. You can see that they used Sonic's run animation from the BETA of Sonic 2 rather than the final version)
And here's the extremely nostalgic-sounding theme music!
