It's my job to tell you where I am today and what it looks like.

As always happens with a trip, I have returned home. Home, in this case, is Michigan Tech, where I'm ostensibly studying and learning things that will help me in the future

The fact that Yousuke isn't a Junpei replacement is what made me love him so much. I really didn't want them to rehash the same character, and bless them, they didn't.

And yyyyyeah I feel you on the going home thing. I always appreciate getting to see my family and the dog and stuff, but at the same time, not being here where my life is kind of...augh.

It makes me happy that they didn't, but at this point (I just beat Chie into recognizing her envy of Yukiko) I liked Junpei more. It could be that I like the retarded shonen hero stereotype that Junpei falls so neatly under, or that Yosuke hasn't quite grabbed me. But hey, I'll spend another 80 hours with these people because I enjoy date sims that also let me clobber gods with other gods.

I know it's a part of growing and becoming more mature, but I kind of felt like a jackass when I tried to get out of seeing family over New Years just because it royally screwed my plans to meet up with friends back home. I don't regret it, but I felt like a jack ass.

Also, re: Naoki in Paradigm, I'm wondering if I shouldn't turn him into a newspaper reporter. On the one hand, I find it funny that a silent protagonist would be stuck in a relatively vocal job, but on the other hand, it's a silent protagonist stuck in a relatively vocal job. That and I honestly have no clue where else to shove him.

welllll the way I see it there's always going to be a character you like more, you know? Nobody else in the Persona series does it for me like Tatsuya. But I still ended up loving the P4 cast on their own merits.

Yousuke's kind of an amazing douche. From about the point where you meet Kanji on, he just keeps doing things and I'm like "oh my god, you're such a jerk!" But it's part of what made me like him, because it felt really realistic for a normal teenage boy to be such a dumbass like that.

Yeah, man. I have been there. This was my first Christmas spent away from home. It was weird, but I didn't...dislike it, which makes me go :/ a little.

ahaha dude, if you made Naoki a reporter, Serph could be his photographer? idk.

...I should app someone who isn't from Megaten, I really should.
