Well…I guess I couldn’t maintain a schedule for posting on this site, hahahahaha…oh well… though it’s kinda sad because I went to a lot of trouble to tweak the dates of the older posts. Anyway, someone said I should explain why they’re good (sweet) and bad (sour), because of the random “A kid pissed me off. I threw a chair at him. I missed… purposely…?.”

In fact it’s the very same person that’s suggested a lot of the stuff for this site… don’t worry, this is still a 100% me… I…think. Moving on, I present the sweet and sour of Mr Milk Love:

Good: School has finally ended

Bad: Not only did I use up a fairy the wrong way, but I also died!

Good:

It was really hard to decide on something good because a lot of good things have happened to me these past few weeks, but I decided to put the end of school as the good because it’s the most natural one to refer to when you ask about anything good that’s happened and because everyone else had put and I really want to join in too, hahahaha. Well, that’s about it for the good, except that I’ll be back in school in September, sadly, because, in truth, it’s not the end, yet, for me. For some it will be, but not for me.

Bad:

It’s funny because it’s been some time since I posted to this site and I was really scraping the barrel to find something bad that’s happened to me during that time and this one just happened today! Is it right to look at this as it being lucky that this ‘misfortune’ was good thing just so I could put something in this section of my blog?…better not dwell on it, I’m not a clever men and it’ll just confuse me, hahahaha.

Anyway, to explain the bad. I was playing the Legend of Zelda : A Link To The Past on the SNES (Super Nintendo) and in Zelda, when you finish the game, you get a number next to your file telling you how much times you have died, one is the minimal. My old record was 7 and this time I tried to beat that record and finish the game with no deaths. I was started a new file and it was going fine until I noticed, “Hey, I’m pretty far. I wonder if I can finish the game today” because one of the rules is that if you switch off the game and load the file again that adds to the counter. I came all the way to the third castle in the Dark World. I’ve always hated this place, I don’t know why, I guess I’m scared of the mummies, hahahaha… but I’m glad Nintendo makes you feel that way. Anyway, I was battling through the dungeon, edging my way closer to the boss and having to solve all the puzzles that I triumphed when I was younger and remembering how I did it, just as I finished. It was pretty tense at moments as my health points came almost to minimal. I survived through it all, replenishing my health little by little as I vanquish enemies and to my luck they leave me a heart. Though battles were tough and I had to keep moving while I slashed my enemies because of the falling hand that tries to capture me and send me back to the beginning of the dungeon. At this point through my journey I had three bottles, though only two had fairies in them. I was nearing the dungeon boss and I tried my hardest to avoid using them but I made foolish mistakes in my quest which took me down to a critical of half a heart. Some people would have risked it, I’m not gutsy enough to do that and so I used one of my fairies. By now, I’ve noticed that, unlike the later Zelda games, you have to touch even bottled fairies before they can restore your health. I came into a room with a hole… I knew it was the hole leading to the boss. All throughout this dungeon I was trying to remember which boss it was that I had to defeat to advance in my quest, sadly I could not… even with the big tip of the treasure that I found inside the dungeon’s big chest, the fire rod, I still could not remember. With only half of my maximum hearts, I took a dive. However I was not ready yet, but in a split second, upon sight of the creature, I finally remembered. It was Mothula of Skull Woods, now I remember why I hate this place, Moths… I hate moths. Quickly I looked all around me, there were spiked blocks on all sides of the walls and my gut instinct was that it will try to blow my into the spiked blocks. Quickly I drew out my fire rod and started firing flames at it. I was doing alright, dodging the spiked blocks as they slide towards me, until I heard that sound… my MP ran out which rendered my rod useless…Now I had to battle it the traditional way…hack and slash. Everybody who plays this game knows only to use the spin attack on bosses because it deals much more damage than a regular attack. Steadily throughout play I had noticed that baddies were taking quite a lot of me and in this battle, my defence was a disgrace so I had to work out a pattern to maneuver around the spiked blocks. If only I had paid attention to my health when I was using my rod, suddenly my health hit 2 and a half. Quickly I pressed the start button. It wasn’t going good. I equipped my last fairy and was trying to decide whether or not to use the fairy by releasing it or letting it revive me. Releasing it is risky as I have to recapture it to take effect, but letting it revive me will add one to the counter because it counts as a death. I resumed the game still undecided, and in one second I had been hit and the decision had been made for me. I was gutted this point but still focused on the game and soon later my health had been wiped out simultaneously by spiked blocks and Mothula’s beam attack.

It was a depressing moment for me, because not only did I use up a fairy the wrong way, but I also died. Out of misery I decided to call it quits…
