For a while now I have been meaning to pick up on my game of Half-Life 2. It had lagged for quite a while due to the fact that I mostly only played Counter-Strike on the computer, and just never got around to started up the game again. Well, today I did start up the game again, and I had forgotten how nice it is as a single player game. I was able to advance a fairly good ways, although I ran into another (this is the third) place where I found an alternate olution that clearly should have worked but was disabled by artificial game boundries. These things I find very annoying in a game that is otherwise so well done.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, I have now met the giant city-eating machine up close and personal, I have found that ant lions are pretty good pets to have around (and I even feel bad when I send one into a booby trap… but not that bad). On the other hand, this new thrust into Half-Life 2 means I’m still not done with my UW personal statement for my transfer application… not good. So, I stopped just now, and its back to the grindstone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
