Dear Player Two,

I have some pretty exciting things to talk about this week, and I'm sorry if things feel weird, today me and weekend me don't always know how to talk to each other.

It's been a nice week with classes and some strange moments. To start one of my prof's missed class due to buying a house. That has to be one of the greatest excuse I've heard of to miss a class. Far better than the excuse of a locked door. I'm really excited to get things going and it looks like we're going to be dive in head first. I don't have many details to share but perhaps the next time you load up this game I can reveal more to you.

I hear austin is a weird place, though IMO all of Texas is a very strange place but that's just because I'm from Canada. I'm glad to hear you've got a lot of your room adornments settled, and hope that you'll see your IKEA furniture soon and without too much interference from the cruel hands of fate...or hands of bad movers.

Time for the thing of the week that's been bothering me! Many games I've been playing lately are co-op or pvp or otherwise social. Lately we've been playing a relatively fast paced game and we find that one person is constantly in menus and comparing stats of items etc. Most of us are running along at what I feel is a regular steady pace while the one remaining is always lagging behind not participating. This isn't unique to the ones I've been playing lately, many of the other online games have this as well. Seeing this in things like warcraft or league is simply infuriating. But enough of that, I just need to include something bothering me each week since I started off last week with it.

That said, I've been really enjoying the new D3 lately with some school friends doing a lot of the timed Rifts. Before you ask, no that's not where the problems I've been having are coming from. I've probably put far too much time into that game recently, though I can justify it with the simple claim that I'm networking with my classmates to make sure I get into the good groups for projects.

With that I must bid you Adieu (which is particularly funny since I'm talking about Ubisoft in classes lately, which as you know is a french company HQ'd in Montreal) and hope this finds you well.

Goodnight my Player Two, Load Game. *blink blink*
