About Me
I'm a Journalism Major at Eastern Washington University. I love playing games and writing about them. Whenever I have enough time in my procrastination cycles, I'll periodically update this blog with new entries. Video games will be my focus, but I'll also share the occasional Dungeons & Dragons anecdote or similar nerdy misadventure.

Holiday Gift Guide for Myself 2009 Edition

We have about two weeks until Christmas and I haven’t asked for anything aside from a BA trenchcoat/peacoat or something of that sort. While that’s pretty boring, here’s a list of relatively pricey things that I legitimately want.

1. PSP 3000 Hanna Montana Pack - $159.99



This is not a joke, I effing want this. I recently purchased Persona for the PSP despite not having the system and not just because of Persona, but because of the slew of other upcoming RPG’s for the handheld. The reason I want the “Panty Purple” PSP is not because of Hannah Montana, but because I’m guilty of vanity and wanting to have my stuff stand out from the others. Like with my DS I spent extra to get the golden-Triforce edition while everyone else has white and black. Also most everyone I know has black iPhones, while mine is white. In other words, I fully support the purple PSP.

2. Dungeons & Dragons 4E Books - $15-35



My other obsession besides video games is D&D. While I haven’t completely exhausted my current wares and 4E is still growing with new books coming out each month, I should still keep semi-updated. Particularly I would like these:

-Monster Manual 2
-Martial Power
-Divine Power
-Primal Power
-Arcane Power

Aside from the Monster Manual, the other books would be primarily for my players so that they would have even more options when creating characters.

3. Rise Kujikawa Action Figure 1/8 Scale - $130



This is probably the creepiest thing on my list as it involves my obsession with Persona 4 and Rise, the hottest girl you can date in the game. It’s a shame I had to cheat on my first girlfriend, Yukiko, to get with Rise, but it was well worth it… heheheheheheh!

4. iMac - $1500



“I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” enough with that crap. Apple released the new iMac recently and it’s pretty nice. My current Macbook Pro still works, but only barely. The first problem is the battery is shot and now my laptop is nothing but a smaller desktop, requiring to be plugged in whenever in use. The other problem is I was cleaning my keyboard and I got a little too OCD with cleaning the keys and accidentally broke off a couple of the keys, which somehow became 12. So now I use an external keyboard for typing and I’m content with it. However, the new iMacs are pretty sexy and I plan to get one later this summer.

5. SONY HVRA1U Black 1.3" 2.97 MP C-MOS 2.7" LCD 10X Optical Zoom Professional 1080i HDV Camcorder - $2500



This is an effing legit camera, and I plan to do some effing legit video recording sometime in the future and I might as well go big. This is a long shot from my current situation and I probably won’t get into this until me and some colleagues have established a proper base of operations to set this stuff up.

How long was the period between v3 and 3.5? It's only been about a year and half since v4 launched and I felt PHB2 fixed or at least silenced most of the haters of v4 with its updates. I did manage to score the three core books in a gift pack for about $60 not too long after v4 launched.

Someone's got expensive tastes, but also good tastes :)

It's crazy, I'm almost in the exact same boat as you with my Macbook Pro. I've got some pulled out keys, but not because of some OCD cleaning. My friend's cat pulled 2 of the keys out! And my battery is also shot. So now I also use mine as a desktop with an external keyboard, but I hooked up to a 22" Samsung syncmaster, so it still looks pretty nice.
