First I would like to say that I now have a newfound respect for people who go to school and have work. It is rediculously exhausting and the stress can pile up pretty high. Also, standing up for 8 hours a day a couple times a week is incredibly frustrating. Its like I want to go home, but I need the money to get nice things. On the positive side I managed to keep today mostly free of worries and stress. The only things I had to do today (I think) was wash my car because birds suck, and go to the computer lab at school. Silly school makes me stay here for an hour with no assignments yet.
On the Magic front (I never said I was into Magic? Well, I'm sure my two readers already know that) I finished up a really mean red-burn deck that pretty much slices through most compitition. I had a good run today and I tried out the new Planechase for the first time. Its incredibly fun, but I find it hard to get a group together (Naar Isle http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=198070 sucks, you don't want it to be your first plane and have no mana). Alex has our planes, so I couldn't use them.

I got approved for a credit card yesterday at my Chevrom Credit Union. Now I just have to wait for them to send it to me and I can get my new computer, happy face! I want it now, but I am probably going to have to wait the 6-7 days for the card, 6 days to build the machine, then shipping. I wish I could go to the ordering part so that at least i'm not waiting for nothing. Oh well.

So while I was looking on the Dell website for something nice and game-y I saw an add for Alienware and I wanted to check it out, laugh at the rediculous prices, and compare to something in a Dell. Turns out Alienware has noticed the tough economic times and cut their prices back quite considerably. I got a look at their cheapest desktop, the Area-51 750i and its not-so-harsh price tag of $800 http://tinylink.com/?PZkzk7Uj3j. Turns out I might be getting an Alienware! Sure, I know I'm paying for the looks, but I feel that a company that makes top-of-the line gaming computers will be more game oriented than a home PC that basically is designed to run Word. Besides, it looks soooo gosh darned cool with its LED lights and sleek design. More on this tomorow, I have to go to the credit union and see if I can get a credit card with a $800 allowance~
Since I spend most of my free time playing WoW, I need a machine that can do it and my current one just isn't going to cut it. I have to play with the graphics on low setting which really reduces the quality of the experience. The recomended requirements excceed mine by alot. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/faq/technology.html , if you were curious. I'll look into something and compile my results here. Of course, I'm not going to be getting an Alienware, but that would be amazing :P
