I Remember the SNES

I saw Qian, and I gave her the presents for her and Weiwei, and she really liked hers. So I'm glad, I made the right choice. She gave me a tshirt too, a really nice one. Emma says it's too good for me, but I will wear it immediately after showering.

Well, I picked up Becky's rats after that. I'm looking after them for the weekend with Emma, and we found one has proceeded to bite anything that comes near, the other is friendly and nice and defecates all over our sofa. But we prefer him to the horrible one.

I was planning on going to Geek in the Park, a geeky get together with Web Accessibility lectures and lots of techies showing off. Becky said I was a nerd, but she can hardly talk, she's going to a reading festival!

I'm looking after her rats because she's going to Reading (the music festival, for those unfamiliar), and my parents are away. I drove her at 6AM, her and her two friends, to Reading. My car doesn't cost much to run, I am proud of it. It was very tiring, and since I didn't sleep, I technically got to bed at 10AM.

For the rest of the day, Emma and Housei and I watched YouTube movies and then I turned on the XBox, booted up the SNES Emulator on it, turned on Mario Kart, and House heard the intro music and almost flipped, stating (in Japanese) that he was really good at it. Turned out, he is. He drives Bowser, and I drive Koopa, but he is fast. We then played Super Mario Bros 3 for about 6 hours, getting to world 6 I think, and it was really fun. We'll play more SNES soon enough I'm guessing. More Star Trek downloaded.

Anyway, I'm going to watch Frasier now. Goodnight.

I had one of them for a while, but it was borrowed from a friend. It was rather retro.

SNES was my primary concole until the PS2 came along.
