It's the end of another leg of break. I work again tomorrow, and things are expected to go back to normal -- I meant my work and academic routine. I just relaxed today and played a game of Mount and Blade: Warband. The learning curve of this game is on the hard side. But once you get the hang of the controls and the combat, it's a really addictive game. Especially when you hold a lot of towns and eventually create your own kingdom. And once you get used to figuring out which vassal to reward, or how to rule your kingdom, the game can really fulfill your medieval fantasies. Running the kingdom isn't hard as long as you appoint a worthy marshal of your army. What I just do is sandbox and let the marshal take care of your kingdom's campaign for Calradian domination. And then there's the divide and conquer strategy, where you can let the marshal do his work and focus on conquering other parts of the map. It's a good game. And underrated too. I can't wait for Bannerlord to come out, the Mount and Blade's next title. I totally recommend trying Warband.
When it's my day-off and when it's cold outside, I just play videogames. I forgot to mention that I opened my PS4 this past Saturday. I bought the COD Ghost, because of the bot feature. It'll keep me occupied until I save a PS Plus subscription. Unlike the PS3, the online multiplayer aspect of the PS4 will be a paid subscription -- just like Xbox Live. I don't really care. I only play multiplayer on my PC anyway, so I'm indifferent.
It wasn't that cold today. The temperature was around -12c. My cousin sent me a message telling me to go ice-skating, but I read that message when it was already dark.
What else? Ah. My dad gave me a note about the possible dates of going to the Philippines. It's great. We're one step closer to making it official. Once it's official, it's going to be time for me to save a lot. Ironically, I'm tired of my work. What I should do is to have to get my mindset straightened out.
Monday was just calm and easy. I hope tomorrow's not too busy.
