Me, pensive and sick!

I have the sinus infection from hell. I'm coughing. Tired. My throat hurts. Insert complaint here.

Yet I'm having a good, introspective day. I'm sick yet pensive. Pictured above.

Happy Birthday DeQuaina!

Is what I'm saying to myself today. I feel a little strange about revealing my real name on here but what the hell. DeQuaina. That's my first name, but it's Prosepunk to you. Still. I might be 26 but ain't tihs changed rekcufrehtom!

Anyway, now that that nonsense is out of my system, I'm here to present a thoughfully compiled list of things Prosepunk likes RIGHT NOW. Hope you like them too, because everything preceding this long winded and rambling list introduction is a bunch of greatness that shall expand your mind. Teach you a thing or two. Oh, and as always this is a two way conversation, if you're reading this, feel free to start a dialogue with me. I won't bite. Or kill you. Or even respond? What's there to lose? A few keystrokes. Anonymity. I eat anonymity for breakfast though, so you are wise to be cautious.

It's my birthday so I can ramble and be as incoherent as I like. this is my blog after all. Look I didn't even capitalize the first word in the last sentence. This is an organic flow of thought, pure stream of consciousness. I am supposed to be introducing you to the list of things that I like right now. Drop your eyes and feast upon my offerings.

(In no particular order)



1.

 Kid Cudi's "Pursuit of Happiness" the original and Steve Aoki version.

2.

Final Fantasy 12. I'm still playing it and it's still so good. I love it. I'll beat it throughly, and enjoy myself while I do it.

3.

Killzone. Haven't played in a few days but as soon as I have the time to devote to it I plan to dive right back in nuts deep. I mean ankle deep. Women can't dive in nuts deep into anything can they?

4.

Swiss and Rainbow Chard. Pull the leaves from the stemps, wash thoroughly. Cut the stems AND the leaves. Heat up some garlic and olive oil in a pan. Throw the stems in. Then about four minutes or so throw in the leaves. Cook, turning and then covering for a while. Cook until a darker green, or to desired consistency. Enjoy.

5.

This Dr. Pepper I'm drinking right now.

6.

Beach House's Teen Dream album.

7.

Independence.

8.

My artistic strides.

9.

Parenthood. I really like that show for some reason. The acting is just  very natural and real to me.

10.

The random function in my Zune software. It just gave me Bat for Lashes' "Tahiti".

11.

Life.

12.

The subtle let down of adult birthdays.

13.

The surprise agents of birthday glee that one never expects to enjoy.

14.

The positive outlook I've acquired while not always unwavering it is enduring.

15.

My job.

16.

My relationships.

17.

 Marcos pepperoni pizza with double garlic and parmesan. So good. Throw some cheezy bread in there and you will lose you mind, son!

18.

Watchmen. I hated the movie when it first came out in theaters. Now it's one of my faves.



Your gift to me, enlightened reader, is to not judge me for any typographical or grammatical errors. Happy MeDay.

Woke up to Killzone, Only to Die by Killzone!!

Died so many horrible deaths at the hand of this thing:




I didn't watch the entire video because I want to defeat this metal hellion without help, but this video has a funky beat and from the looks of the first few seconds of this battle this guy's got the right idea! I've died a million times killing this thing so even though this guy makes it look easy, I assure you it is not. I inadvertently got a tip by viewing the first few seconds though, switch up my fyahpowah!

Story developing.

Peacy Weacy!!!

Killzone Update, Ya'll!!!!

So....I have a jetpack now! I'm flying around with a jetpack and a hand cannon shooting Helghast soldiers into the dust!

Oh, and guess what I resisted today? Going into the gamer's crack den otherwise known as GameStop and snagging me a 3-DS. I have a hefty trade that will give me enough store credit to help get me a piece of game hardware fresh out the package and new to behold!!!

Pair that with one of these inviting and delicious looking tasty treats:






And I would've been in heaven. But I was trying to be responsible and forced myself and my armful of nice juicy trade-stuffs back home and fired up some Killzone, which I have yet to best. I haven't played since the 3rd though so give me a break. I work and act like a 25 year old  woman as well as game like a 12 year old boy so taste my vesatility and enjoy it. 


Of course jetpack pictured belongs to Sean Connery's James Bond from Thunderball!!
What what! (Bond rules.)

So as I was saying, my reward for my self-control was my character Templar popping open a supply depot only to find a shiny piece of jetpack amazingness to strap on. Hover abilities and unlimited ammunition. Thank you kindly. Still playing....


Know what else I'm still playing?

Killzone: Liberation Makes Prosepunk Work fo' it!!

So I'm spending my glorious, post work Thursday night playing some Killzone: Liberation and sipping on a Sweet Tea (brand unimportant) while Avatar plays on my television.

Pre-work, while Kill Bill Vol.2 Motion Picture Soundtrack played in the background, I also immersed myself in the addictive and damn difficult world of Killzone: Liberation.


Kablammo! You're dead, man!


You die a million times in this game because everyone in the WORLD is trying to kill you. Dogs, spider bomb thingies, pressure bombs that you can barely see, well thrown grenades, these red-eyed Helghast soldiers are capital R Ruthless!

Hats off to you Killzone: Liberation, handheld facet of the Killzone series, for making me use my logic, skill and patience to best levels manned by the most intelligent AI I've seen in a while. 

Killzone: Liberation challenges me, it punishes me when I try to run in guns blazing, button mashing. It teaches me to pull a pinch of gaming finesse from my reserves and lay it all on the line for ultimate completion, ultimate success.

But damn you are hard and frustrating and maddening, which is why victory over you shall be so very sweet!

So...let's see how long it takes for me to take it down! I started playing three days ago, probably about an hour to two hours a day, give or take. Hear me starting my engines?

Friday October 21, 2:17 PM

This level, titled "TRAIL OF DECEPTION-Assault" is a damn trail of deception. No just kidding, I can't even figure out if the trail is deceptive because I keep getting shot down at the beginning of it. But I can get down with the "Assault" part because I'm for sure being assaulted. I dare say being subjected to aggravated assault tinged with First Degree Murder! This level, particular the part pictured (the very damn beginning) is kicking my frustrated a$$! And I just shot my way through a very frustrating level last night! Only to be met with a challenge that makes the last seem like level 1 in Frogger?!

Horrible picture (I couldn't fight the glare) but you get my drift.


There are two guards right there who I successfully sneak by only to get shot up by some crazy asses who come running out of a door seconds later. Boo. Still trying.

2:46 PM

Hellzyeahyuh! Got my minority stereotype ally Rico to help after running from the Halghast and putting down the bridge! If I die, though, I'm going to probably try to use more finesse next time around....but dammit I got through a part that was kicking my ass so I'm quite pleased. Did it in about two minutes with only about two tries today so far.



Story developing suckah........!

"Method Man Does Sour Patch Kids?! Savvy Businessman or Sellout Sour Sport?" Is What Articles All Across the Internet Will Read!

Ef selling out, I like it. This is Method Man's Sour Patch Kids Commercial. #1 Don't eat much candy, but when I do, I will munch on on Sour Patch. Also, the commercials (the ones sans Method Man) strike a cord of interest within me. So, delicious candy, #1, Method Man/Wu-Tang-esque production style accompanied by the unique chant of Method Man's raspy-voiced lyrical flow #2? Heck yes please. Also, the commercial's mildly amusing dare I say....funny? And Meth had complete creative control over the commercial so he is resposible for its funniness! Not those stuffy ad executives! A good rapper! Wu-Tang? Yes, Meth was in Wu-Tang!

And dammit I need to blow the dust of my Blackout album, Doc's Da Name 2000, Malpractice album! Yes!!!!!

Now, since I have demonstrated my ability to be brain controlled by the media and their ad agencies, I will now simply encourage you to get some Meth and Red in your musical life. Oh and don't hold me to any opinion of Redman's new stuff because I haven't listened to it, but trust, I'm checking out his post-Malpractice catalogue riiiiight now!!

Peacy Weacy!!

Sidenote, once I find a version of this video that isn't a piece of ad crap that plays automatically and even presents you with a commercial BEFORE a commercial, I'll post it in place of this one. Stick it to the man!!

Update: Did it! Enjoy this Youtube version that doesn't do all the things I complained about above. Ta-Ta!
