Downloading ROMs, Corey and typhoons, Steph, Lisa, words
Called Steph yesterday to see when she and Lisa were free for dinner; Thursday sounds good, as long as I bring the cards and remind her to bring that tea, which I also should pack so pictures can be taken! For some reason, I wanted to download roms myself last night... bring on the cheat codes, baby! (haha - I've beaten the games normally in the [very recent] past, so why not POWER IT UP?!) I also talked to Corey via Skype messages about Taiwan, China, air raid sirens, people dying when windows fell on them, politics, and more... he hopes to come home around Christmas, so we'll see!
[10:07:13 PM] Leslie: when are you coming back home?
[12:14:51 AM] Corey: Christmas, I hope
[12:16:26 AM] Corey: I'm sitting in the middle of a typhoon right now... yesterday, they cancelled my classes because of the typhoon, but all there was was a bit of wind... now it's super super rainy, with thunder and lightning everywhere.... the typhoon was supposed to be weak and basically on the way to bother China by now :P
[12:17:48 AM] Leslie: aiya - that sounds bad. meanwhile, the eastern US is in fear of Hurricane Irene, or was
[12:18:00 AM] Leslie: I'm living the ZSNES experience right now
[12:19:06 AM] Corey: I think that one was maybe worse than this... the part of Taiwan I'm in is one of the safest parts for natural disasters.. the south probably had a ton of problems, though. I know some people in the Phillipines died
[12:24:26 AM] Leslie: that sounds horrible, all right :(
[12:25:42 AM] Corey: someone died here too, like right by where I work, but it sounds like that was some sort of weird accident. a window fell out of a building and hit someone
[12:27:15 AM] Leslie: what?! oh man, that does sound like a weird accident... pretty crazy stuff
[1:17:55 AM] Corey: yay, now there's air raid sirens...
[1:21:42 AM] Leslie: hang on - I'm extracting files
[1:21:46 AM] Leslie: air raid sirens?! what is this, a war zone?
[1:27:56 AM] Corey: well, kind of...
[1:28:07 AM] Corey: China has missiles pointed at Taiwan from all over the place
[1:28:49 AM] Corey: they like to "test" the sirens a lot... so if they ever need to use them for real, I wonder if anyone will even notice
[1:29:06 AM] Leslie: I thought China and Taiwan were enemies, anyway... and yeah, I'd wonder the same thing
[1:29:46 AM] Corey: politics here are all centered on liking or hating China
[1:31:08 AM] Leslie: that's what I've heard
[10:07:13 PM] Leslie: when are you coming back home?
[12:14:51 AM] Corey: Christmas, I hope
