High school is a social institution not unlike prison so the advice to fall in with a group is key. It'd be best if they're the kind that will accept you for you are (the feeling being mutual, of course).

I recall that I was a class clown and a bit of an attention whore early on. Resist that temptation. I don't know how big your class is but not everyone is going to think you're funny and that's fine. Eventually I stopped caring about that and acted with more tact and respect and I got along better with people I didn't usually hang out with.

The naysayers will still be there and I just didn't bother with them. I think I could've used that mindset earlier on. The weird thing is that I ran into some of those douchebags during my college days and they acted friendly, like nothing happened. They keep sending me Facebook friends invites. What the hell.

It's a case by case basis. I'll take a look at the achievement/trophy list and if they sound like they're reasonably obtainable, I'll go after it. Most of the time I fail at it. All you have to do is look at my PSN/XBL profile to see that. I may never get a Platinum trophy but I can't say it really matters.

I saw The World's End this afternoon and LOVED it. Best film of the summer. Not sure where I'd rank it within the Cornetto Trilogy but it is easily on par with Shaun or Fuzz.

Starting tomorrow, I should only have the atheltic buildings to worry about, aside from some smaller stuff. I'm one of the few employees on a full-time schedule so my workload is enough for that (with opportunities for overtime). I've pretty much been cleaning up after games (at this district and a previous one) by myself for about 6 years.

Babysteps is all I can manage but that's been the case ever since I stopped being a teenager with no job or responsibilities. ;)

I'm all about "the least responsbility, the better." Since May, I've helped with other school buildings (8th grade, 3-5th grade) besides the athletic ones that I clean. Now that football season is underway, my boss is taking me off the bigger buildings so I won't have much on my plate.

Origins can be pretty challenging. I've died enough that I get that notice of "this place is dangerous. Do you want to stay here?" and I keep trudging through. Those bonus stages where you have to chase the chest are both fun and infuriating.

I luck out in that area. My co-workers and I don't have to move furniture from building to building. If it's from classroom to classroom in the same building, that's fine.

Super Mario Bros. on the NES.

Reportedly, the "Ninja Rap" song from the second TMNT movie figures somehow in the game. Whether that's a good thing or not is up to you.

I have to wait until next week's paycheck to grab the Vita version.
