Book Rating
DNF @ page 80/326.

I've been reading this 10 days and only gotten 80 pages in, which just shows how much i wasn't enjoying this considering i finish most paperbacks in about 5 days. I only wanted to read this because of True Blood--I've only seen the first series of the show, and wasn't too impressed with that either--and sometimes i think the books are better than the shows/films but this book was so slow moving and the way it was written--so southern--was starting to grate on me. Sookie was annoying me and Bill seemed like the kind of vampire to run off from, not rescue and take on a date.

Not for me at all.

Better than fifa 20 (2 more)
Good number of objectives
customisable stadium
Game play is buggy (1 more)
Too many untradeable pack rewards from sbc's
Game play is more enjoyable than fifa 20 and the play seems smoother on FUT. There is also a good choice of objectives to complete with good rewards, and the regularly changing friendly modes give the game more variety so you are less likely to get bored.

There are still a lot of bugs that need fixing (and probably won't be by EA) during matches, like goal keepers not moving at all when a ball is coming at them. There are also too many untradeable sbc rewards.

I only play ultimate team so can't comment on other game modes.

"When I was moving to California with one of my best friends, Austin, we packed up everything in his car and we were driving out. Everything was just stuffed. We had a little Kia Sephia. We stuffed everything in the car, including the CDs. We couldn’t find the CDs anywhere, we couldn’t find his CDs and mine were all packed away—we couldn’t get to them. The only CD we had in the CD player was By The Way. We had that whole CD on repeat. It reminds me of leaving the safety of my parents' home to move to California where I was convinced I was going to be gang-raped. I had some seriously rape-able buttcheeks. 10 years later, they’re slightly less rape-able"

Movie Favorite

"A truly inspiring movie. Kurosawa is one of those rare directors who knows how to tell a story in the compelling way we all like to see them told on-screen. In Ikiru, we, as individual viewers, so identify with the moment-to-moment experience of the main character (played by the great Takashi Shimura) that somehow it becomes our own story. As we watch this movie, we progressively go through bouts of fear and guilt and then, by movie’s end, achieve a sad satisfaction coupled with the personal conviction that we must somehow do better as human beings. This one becomes even more moving as we get older and the story becomes closer to our own reality. This one puts me through the ringer every time."
