Combatants of the Grandest of Arenas

It's been a few days since my last post sorry but I really haven't done much in the past few days.
So whats going on I'm back at school and work woohoo. Today I acquired information on all my missed work which is surprisingly small :). So daily at school (usually) someone will bring a XBox 360 or PS3 and we will play some Halo, Call of Duty or Soul Cal. 4 and today was no different in that respect a good friend of mine Cameron brought his XBox and some controlers and I brought some controllers and Halo 3 multiplayer disk that comes with ODST. We played a few matches with a clear cut winner for most of them, which was me. Another good friend of mine came in to play a match or two and quickly turned those tables though but I am a good sport and mainly play for fun.
In the "gameroom" as we call it there is a regular group of people who all love games or love to watch the matches and smack-talk involved in each round. Of that higher-archy of gamers in Halo 3 there are three players that rank above and beyond all the other players (which can make some very interesting matches).
Rank #1:
Nick - A true demon of halo he's the highest ranked live player and an overall weapons specialist(even though hes color blind).
Rank #2:
Seth - Our resident metal head he excels in one on one and is the secon highest ranked live player in our group.
Rank #3:
Me - last but not least is yours truely, I'm a heavy weapons and close-combat specialist and by far the most crazy of us, I'm about 3rd highest ranked of the rooms live players.
We do enjoy our halo and although it may seem a hostile environment we all have respect for each other and come for the fun of competition.


Now on to other things; today we had a very interesting set of guys come in to the "gameroom" guys I had never seen before but they looked like they wanted to have some fun with our group. Unfortunately  Cameron had already left with his XBox and we were currently gameless :(. But they had a solution....Yes thats right the spunky little underdog of the console wars the Nintendo Wii. Now I know what your thinking what game could they possibly be playing on the Wii that is competitive well I'll tell you its Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In my oppinion one of the only good games on the wii (and yes I do own one and brawl is the one of two games i have that are any good). So these fine gentlemen came into our area and wished for a challenge and a challenge they got but have no illusions these guy brought there game with them and had us on the ropes most of the time. Out of 4 games I came in first once, second twice, and once in fourth. But it was a nice change in pace from the usual.

Today I also got to hang out with a friend that I rarely get to hang out with which made me happy, I gave them some anime and loaned them a game. I think it's nice to see friends you rarely get to see.

And work well what do you want to know it's work I work as security of a sort and it's a generally slow job but on occasion we get some fun character that come through that puts a smile on my face.

 So today I leave you with a smile on my face and I hope that some one or something can bring a smile to yours.
