L4D and Christmas Tree
Finally, my sister and I had the chance to put up the Christmas tree the other day (I know, I’m a little late!). It took a pretty long time to finish, there was so much shit to hang and tie and wrap and sprinkle that I almost gave up halfway, but we made it! And we did a a good job.
Picture on the left. Is it the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen or is it the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen?
I just bought a PC game called Left 4 Dead and it practically owns my life, which explains why I haven’t really been on the internet lately or even outside for that matter. I’m not a hardcore gamer. I tend to have very little patience with video games and I get bored quickly, but when I find a really good game, I’d clear my schedule out and say peace out to my family, friends, boyfriends, and pets just to make (big) room for some serious 24/7 gaming.
Left 4 Dead is one of those few games that kicked me in the groin, grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and said, “This game is pretty badass, so get into it motherfucker”. It lured me right in from the moment I started watching the introduction:
Knowing that I was about to get myself into THAT kind of crap was remarkably frightening, intimindating and nerve racking, and if a game can make me feel all of the three then it should certainly be worth the try.
I played it, and lots of it. There were a lot of sleepless nights, relentless starvation and ruined friendships (not really =P) because of this game. Yes, it is that good.
L4D is nominated for a couple of awards for Spike TV’s Video Game Awards (I will be attending!), and it deserves to win every single category, especially for best multiplayer game.
*is off to play L4D*
A friend’s boyfriend told me about Left 4 Dead a couple of weeks ago and if I werent such a scaredy-cat, I’d be playing it. I said that zombies scared me and a friend reasoned that it’s about time I started killing them. HUHLOLZ.

I say that’s a damn good reason to play it!

That Christmas tree is so gorgeous! Your effort at decorating the tree obviously paid off…:)

I can’t believe we’re at like almost 10 days into December and I’ve yet to put out one decoration. At this point I’m asking myself what is the point, but I think I’d get depressed without a tree or anything. Being sick around the holidays just throws everything off.
Your tree is gorgeous, it looks professionally done. Good job.

OMG that’s a huge effing tree!! I think it’s comparable to my parents! I’m amazed you got all the decorations up and it looks like there’s a ton of bows for that! My goodness it would have driven me insane if I had to put up that many bows. It looks very beautiful ^_^
Ooh… that game sounds deadly. I’m a heavy addict to games once I start so I just leave it and don’t bother to start at all. But the video seems freakish… I would probably get nightmares as well.

C’est tres belle arbor! as in….that tree is so awesome and pretty I love it! I had to drag our huge Christmas tree up from the basement, assemble it (yeah, real authentic), light it up, sprinkle some “glitta”, and place some ornaments from the past on it. It took forever, but it was so much fun!
