Paper Mario is back

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Super Paper Mario CoverJust started playing this weird, but enjoying game called Super Paper Mario. As we all can see, it’s starring our favourite italian “stud” Mario! The game play has really changed from the earlier Paper Mario games, since now it’s more like an plattform game than a classic RPG game. Some elements remain from the RPG genre like leveling up and using items, so it hasn’t totally lost its roots.

The game itself is very unique in it’s gameplay. It supports flipping the world from the normal 2D scroller (seen in earlier Mario games) to a 3D view (seen in the later Mario games) with a push of a button. This is needed to solve certain puzzles in the game, since some things only show up in one of the dimensions.

To mention some bad things, it seems the puzzles can be solved pretty similiar over and over again. Hopefully this is just because I started playing, since this might get the player familiar with the controls. For now I’ll let Zelda: The Twilight Princess rest a bit and keep playing this game.

Learning Backgammon

JC Mascot

As you seen earlier, I did a sponsored post just to earn some money. Now it’s time again, however this time it’s a bit more useful. A site just posted a press-release about their new launch of a Backgammon site. To their help, they are using this tiger called JC. They seem to brand him alot, since you can find videos and pictures of him everywhere.

I never played Backgammon in my life, atleast not for real. I do have a board in a closet, but never knew how to use it. So before I start playing, I’ll be heading over to this site learn some backgammon rules. Good luck and see you online!

Eastertrip to London

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

Was meant to write this post earlier, but school has started again so it’s been a busy start on the week. Anyway, me and my partner went to a trip to London over the easter. The best thing with it was that it was completly free flight and hotel, since my partner have collected some flypoints over a while.

We had a very nice stay, the weather was absolutly amazing (I even burned my earlobes in the sun). We did the normal touristattractions such as Madame Tussauds, London Dungeon and also some city sightseeing (like Picadilly Circus and Big Ben). Overall it was a much needed vacation. Thanks goes out to Hell and her newly found friend for watching the cats while we were away.

Spring arrives early in London! At the hotel in London Proof from London! :)

Leaving church for the money

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

Leaving church for the money!I just got my taxsheet with details for my final taxdeclaration. Each year I get it, I’m always upset how much of my money goes to the church that I never attend or have any beliefs in. In Sweden we were all joined to the church by birth (this have changed now). This means each year we pay around 2% of our income to keep the church running and also take part of their services. The weird thing is that you can still participate in each and every thing that a “paid member” believer can. You can get married, get buried and stuff like that – only difference you have to pay for it instead.

As I live as a homosexual gay guy, I don’t really have any high hopes to get a “svensson” wedding in a church. Mostly because church rejects us, but I’m not really sure I would be that interested even thou they welcomed us since I don’t share the same beliefs. The day marriage comes to question, it will be more legal involved than a whole ceremony. Maybe a bit of party afterwards thou! ;)
