the crazy Plants vs Zombie mania

this generation's Super Mario Brothers game

Of all the people who’d be addicted to PopCap’s Plant versus Zombie I never thought I, myself, would succumb to such ridiculous and, mind you, extremely addictive game. I remember it was just a few weeks ago when I used to toy my friends playing what i used to refer to as a “sun-catching ridiculous game”.  I used to favor the World of Goo then, which I think was a more intellectual and strategic game (not to mention that they call it a little ‘physics simulation’).  Crazy huh?

Anyways, if we talk about addiction it suggests that cure is quite difficult to attain by just instantly stopping so, based from past addiction experiences, I decided to just get over it as fast as possible. I think I started finishing the 2nd half of the game starting 7pm till 12 midnight and at last, the sunflower exercised her vocal chords (it sings at the end, if you’re not familiar).

I thought, at last I’m through with you BUT NO! THERE’S MORE! After finishing the main game, there are other mini games and bonus games that a player can unlock by finishing each stage. I tried getting rid of them but it seems that I need more time, which I don’t have right now.

I’m kinda sleepy and my tummny’s complaining already.

GTG. Byers for now!

Author’s Notes: This is more like a drabble oneshot of some sort. I’d be glad to continue it though but not now.

======================================

“Ling Tong…I don’t think this is really worth it…” Mian Rei whispered behind his ear, secretly keeping her gaze at the tall figure from afar.

They both were conspicuously standing as close as they can get to him to make sure that he’s still unknowingly in their presence.

“Ah, c’mon Rei, someone like him?” He rolled his eyes as he looked back at her thereafter, pointing at him with his thumb. Particularly, almost looking like he was giving her a thumbs up which obviously wasn’t the point in this situation. She looked at his gesture and quickly moved it away out of panic.

“No! Don’t do that!” Her eyes filled with dread and fear, tightly holding his hands just to make sure he doesn’t bring it up again and end up causing commotion.

 “W-what?

“He’ll see you!”

“So?” He replied, trying to hide the disgust in his tone. “Seriously, someone like Mian Rei shouldn’t be acting like this…”

Silence drew between the both of them.

“W-well, I-I just don’t want him to see me too.” She whispered after knowing her distracting outrage. Tong noticed that she was still shaking after the outburst. Thankfully, no one was bothered enough to notice.

“That’s all?” He squinted his eyes at her.

She laughed softly. She enjoyed Tong’s indirect humor.

“That’s all.” She replied.

Rei looked up again, fixing her gaze on the mysterious person who was spending his time, speaking to one of the vendors in town. Tong rolled his eyes without her seeing, walking towards the boy, his hands behind his head as though what he was doing wasn’t a big deal.

Rei’s stare didn’t dare to miss what she was seeing and quietly ran towards him, desperately wanting him to stop.

“Oh jeez, Tong! Embarrass me in front of him and I’ll hurt you!”

He knew what was coming and inwardly smirked. Just as soon as she managed to get hold of him, he shouted towards his direction,

“Hey! Lu Xu—!”

Her eyes widened, her mouth open for a silent scream. She held in her every being from tearing him apart.

Out of anger,

Out of embarrassment,

…and probably also out of satisfaction in more ways than one.

Engaged!!!

Exciting news!!!

Ok, it’s actually not me (was that a mean trick?).  My sister got engaged. Apparently, she texted me a picture of her ring but I haven’t updated my iPhone for text pictures. I never answered her, and finally my mom spilled the beans. Good thing my sister called me, because I was all perturbed and stuff. *WHAT??? SHE DIDN’T TELL ME???? HMMMPHHFF*

Well, but, she kinda did? Don’t you think technology is cursing us? I was reading an article about how news is spread via Facebook to family members, quite often, before they can tell the news themselves. They read the news on someone’s wall or see the relationship status change in their news feed, then call other family members and friends to spread the news. The family is surprised; why wasn’t I told?  It can cause a lot of hard feelings when it wasn’t meant to. Wedding pictures being uploaded before the bride and groom can even share them. Babies born at the hospital. The list goes on and on. You get the idea. This relates to my sister, telling me she is engaged by text,  basically because she is not on Facebook. HA.

So, I didn’t get it and sent her a text.

TEXT: Mom spilled the beans (you know better to tell her a secret). Is this for real? Is it pretty? I wanna know everything!

All mom told me was that she had a ROCK. *oooookkkkaaayyyy seriously…. date,  details,  nope  just a ROCK*

My sister calls me with “the news”  just after I had talked to Jason,  Monday Sep. 28. To say,  I was a bit distracted?? That would be an understatement. Here is how the conversation went. This is pre-sister call.

6:09pm

J: Hey, babe, what are you doing?

A: Hey, I am sitting in traffic. Cowboys game tonight and it’s NUTS! People everywhere already! Holy smokes! They are parking all the way up Collins by the Sushi Zone. I just saw a bicycle pulling a BUGGY. I had to take a picture, too funny.

J: Yeah, about that, I got an email from someone sent to the school stating they had extra tickets to the game tonight.

A: Really?? Wow! *This is ony the most talked about game since…forever….the first Monday night Cowboys game at the new stadium*

J: Well, we have dance class tonight and it’s so last minute. We probably shouldn’t……..

A: Huh?  *WHAT??*  Are you serious? Listen, why don’t you call them and see if they still have them. Seriously, we may never get to a Cowboys game on our own. Too expensive! My gosh, we have time to take that dance class again. CALL THEM.

J: Ok,  I’ll call you back.

THEN- My sister calls.

Am I ever distracted, I am a phone call away from a Cowboys game. She is telling me about the very sweet, very dear, and very Godly engagement. It is beautiful. I am happy for her. It is a surprise, somewhat, I mean when she insisted her guy meet mom and the family soon, like before they ended up meeting him at the weeding. Yeah, well, we kinda knew. But still….wasn’t  sure she’d jump back into marriage so soon after her marriage ended of over TWENTY years recently. Nevertheless, in my pending anxiousness,  I am enjoying the sweet story, when Jason calls back.

“Uhhhh, HOLD ON!”, I switch to Jason.

J: Hey, he is at the Sheraton and they are getting ready to walk to the game. He has two tickets. How close are you? *I have not moved in over five minutes-Yes!

A: I can be there in five.

I basically make a U, and rocket to the Sheraton. At this point, I actually have to hang up with my sister and call her back because, the Sheraton is charging to park for the Cowboys game. I don’t need to park, I only need to pull up and snag me some tickets. *FREE TICKETS. Ahhhh!*

No prob, they let me pass through. Now, I don’t know this guy from Adam. I am waiting at the front doors in my car. I see a guy walking towards me. He is smiling. He opens my door, drops two game tickets and two parking passes in my seat and says, “Enjoy! See you at the game.” *My hero!*

I swear my buggy eyes must have bugged out even more. I thank him profusely. He shuts the door and I glance down at laminated tickets. Ring of Honor suite. $125.00 a piece.  Ohhh. Mmm. Geee.  *yeah, I have 15yr old*

I had to call my sister back, I was navigating the car, as quick as I could to Jasons the back routes. Giddy. FREAKING OUT. I couldn’t believe this! Wow!

She answers, “Oh, uhhh, hi sis, where were we?????”.  What’s really going through my head? *I am going to the COWBOYS GAME tonight* We talk a little longer. I have no idea what else she said. I remember the important part, SHE’S ENGAGED!  Hopefully, she remembers how excited I was, for UM her. Yeah. *I’m going to the GAME!!!!!*

Tickets/GOLD/Keepsakes/Memories….Whatever you want to call them. Mine, oh sweetness,  mine.

Walking to the GAME! This place is ginormous! We missed the kick off but not by much. The parking pass was off Randol Mill Road, to the west of Collins. Any of you game goers, let me give you a tip. PARK HERE. It is, by far, the best place.  Parking here you can go West on Randol Mill and hit any number of freeways when the game is over. Any other direction you are in standstill traffic. News flash, the lots closest to the stadium are the worst. The street is backed up for miles and you can’t even get OUT.

Jason’s FIRST ever Cowboys game. Uhhhh , hun?  It’s usually not this awesome. Just so you know!

The WORLD’s LARGEST TV. To a child that was raised on TV, I gotta admit-I was awestruck. I wanted to sit right in front of it. (ha)

Ring of Honor,suite #?? can’t remember, doesn’t even matter. Club level, take the stairs by the chandelier UP. FREE drinks. FREE food. FREE programs. FREE hats. Boiled shrimp the size of my HAND. Chicken pizza, wings, and taquitos. Private bathroom. Not to mention, two Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders came by and took photos with everyone.

Just after the Cowboys FIRST WIN in the new stadium. Just to the left in the picture, the ESPN guys were set up doing their show live on the field.

What an amazing night. How that fell into our lap is still unbelievable.  The inside of that stadium IS exactly what everyone is talking about. This place is larger than life. Cooler than an Eskimo’s nose. It should be a world wonder! Iwas in wonder the whole time.

I couldn’t help but look at Jason, brow furrowed, “Babe, you were going to go to DANCE class?”

He says to me, “Yes, because that’s what I thought YOU wanted to do.”

That’s why I love him, so selfless. He LOVES the Cowboys. Always watches the games and he would have gave that up for me? To dance a dance we have no plans of dancing for a long time.  He would have missed this opportunity for my happiness?  Really?  Incredible!    *Is he CRAZY?*

I said, “That’s why I love you, but I wouldn’t have let you do that.”  I give him a kiss.  *Silly goose*

He looks back at  me,  smiling, “And that’s, why I love you.”

Don’t you love a happy ending? Great game. Precious memories. Even more precious? Knowing the heart of a person is for you,  and you for them.

“Remember the best relationship,  is one in which your love for each other, exceeds your need for each other.” -unknown.

May you engage yourself today in selfless gestures of love,  that you will never forget.

 *****Congratulations Deedy and Roger, June 12, 2010******

Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core : big ideas in a small screen

Dari dulu gw suka banget sama game RPG, salah satunya Final Fantasy Series. Game ini yang bikin gw tertarik banget punya PSP, karena penasaran tentang jalan ceritanya, cara mainnya (beda dong antara PS dan PSP), dan juga karena suka banget sama jenis game RPG.

Final Fantasy 7 : Crisis Core (FF7CC) ini seperti game Final Fantasy pada umunya adalah game dengan cerita seperti film drama+action, dimana tokoh utamanya harus berjuang melawan “penjahat” dengan bumbu-bumbu romantis yang ada di sepanjang game. FF7CC adalah cerita yang berlatar belakang sebelum kisah dalam Final Fantasy 7 (FF7). Buat yang pernah main tentu tau FF7 dan tokoh-tokohnya, seperti Cloud, Aerith, Tifa dan juga tentunya Sepiroth. Di FF7CC, berkisah tentang masa sebelum ada Cloud dan teman-temannya, yakni tentang Zack, seorang prajurit yang berusaha mencapai mimpinya.

Ada satu kalimat yang terus diulang dalam game ini, dan gw inget terus karena bagus banget : Embrace your Dream, and Protect your Honor. Kalimat ini terus diucapkan oleh si tokoh utama, dan merupakan ide besar dari game ini. Ya Big idea! Ide yang tertuang dalam kalimat ini member sebuah semangat, yakni semangat perubahan untuk kritis terhadap otoritas yang ada.

Pada game ini diceritakan tentang Shinra, sebuah perusahaan yang mengeksploitasi sumber daya alam di dunia. Pada awalnya memang untuk kebaikan, namun lama kelamaan menjadi eksploitasi besar yang tidak terkendali. Situasi politik dan sosial dalam game juga sangat terasa, terjadi kesenjangan sosial, terjadi fenomena diktatorisme yang bersumber dari sebuah tirani, dan terjadi sebuah pergolakan untuk melawan.

Gw memang sengaja tidak menyoroti dalam sisi gameplay karena mungkin anda bisa dapatkan di situs review game seperti www.psp.ign.com atau mungkin di www.gamefaqs.com. Yang gw soroti adalah tentang sebuah ide mengenai Dreams dan Honor (mimpi dan kehormatan).

Mimpi. Setiap orang punya mimpi, dan mimpi itulah yang menggerakkan kita untuk terus maju berjuang dan memacu diri kita untuk menggunakan usaha sampai kita dapat meraihnya. Dalam game ini juga muncul dialog “Utopic dreams usually the best”. Si tokoh utama, Zack berusaha mencapai mimpi dengan usaha kerasnya. Sebagai prajurit, Zack rela untuk terus berlatih dan tak pernah hilang semangatnya untuk mendapatkan suatu misi dimana dirinya bisa menunjukkan prestasinya. Mimpi dan prestasi, dua hal yang saling mendukung. Satu kunci disini adalah, cari dan raihlah sebuah prestasi. Prestasi apapun. Prestasi artinya adalah kita mampu menjalankan tugas yang kita terima, atau lebih simpelnya, prestasi adalah ketika kita melakukan apa yang kita ucapkan. Menurut gw integritas adalah kunci dari prestasi, dan prestasi-prestasi itulah yang akan membawa kita pada mimpi kita.

Kehormatan. Apa sih pentingnya kehormatan? Dalam game ini, Zack terus mempertahankan kehormatannya, dengan melakukan tugasnya dengan sebaik mungkin meskipun orang-orang disekitarnya meninggalkannya. Zack menyadari bahwa kehormatannya sebagai prajurit takkan tergantikan, takkan direbut darinya apapun yang terjadi. Disaat prajurit lain berubah pandangan dan mulai berbuat hal-hal yang berlawanan dengan kode etik, dirinya tetap teguh pada pendiriannya. Kunci pada topic ini adalah loyalitas. Loyalitas adalah bukti bahwa seseorang memiliki kehormatan, dan kehormatan itu akan dimilikinya selamanya. Jika kita memutuskan untuk mengikuti sesuatu yang kita yakini itu benar, kehormatan kita adalah untuk tetap setia dan mengabdi, apapun yang terjadi. Sebab kehormatan kita bukan terletak pada orang lain, bukan pada anugerah dan tanda jasa, melainkan pada loyalitas kita yang kita persembahkan pada sesuatu yang kita anggap benar dan mulia.

Memang katanya “hanya” sebuah game, hanya permainan belaka. Namun gw selalu percaya, bahwa kita bisa belajar dari apa saja. Gw belajar dari game ini tentang mimpi dan kehormatan. Apa yang lo pelajari dari hobi lo?
