Where is my GS5? D:

This has been on my mind for a while, but is anyone else totally annoyed that Capcom hasn't released a single piece of information regarding Gyakuten Saiban/Ace Attorney 5? (Besides the fact that they are indeed making one?) They're really pushing for Gyakuten Kenji to be a success, but given the choice between a spin-off game and an entry to the main series...? I want the addition to the main story! XD Sorry, Mr. Edgeworth! I choose Prosecutor Gavin! XD It's been way over a year since Apollo Justice was released in Japan, so what's with the hold up? What's wrong with working on two games at once, right? Oh well. XD I just hope they tell us what they have planned before GK comes out... I guess the release date has been pushed all the way back to the end of May--for Japan! Noooo! XD



So. As I mentioned in my most recent post, my first week of school ended yesterday, and looking back, it was actually pretty good. Here's what my schedule looks like for this semester:

Monday

GER 1106 - Elementary German - 9:05 AM - 9:55 AM
ECON 2006 - Principles of Macro-Economics - 10:10 PM - 11:00 AM
CS 1054 - Introduction to Programming in Java - 12:20 PM - 1:10 PM
ACIS 2115 - Principles of Accounting - 1:25 PM - 2:15 PM

Tuesday

Nothing! :D

Wednesday

((See Monday))

Thursday

CS 1054 LAB - 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Friday

((See Monday, minus the CS lecture.))

And like last semester, Math is taken online and never actually meets. I take my tests on Tuesday/Wednesday.


I have to say... I love my programming class. I actually enjoy going to it, and the lab this past Thursday was really fun. It was mostly just getting acclimated to the software and learning the basics--edit, compile/debug, execute--but it was still really interesting. The TA thought I had a real knack for it as someone walking in as a beginner, so that was encouraging.

I was also pleasantly surprised with how German worked out this semester. I really liked my teacher from 1105, but there was a rumor going around that she wouldn't be teaching the 9 AM class this spring, which was the only time I could fit in the class. But! When I got my syllabus the day before classes began, I found out that she was my teacher, which made me super-duper happy! XD Yay! Once again, I have avoided a cruel fate with Manfred von Karma as my instructor. XD

Let's see... Accounting is interesting. Everyone keeps saying that it's really difficult for an introductory class, but I'm trying not to let that get to me. My teacher--and I'm so sorry that I keep throwing in all these Ace Attorney references--reminds me of Apollo, except taller and minus the hair-antennae. I might have a crush on him. I had to go up to his desk to turn in a form and floated back to me seat because he said "thank you very much" and smiled at me. XD

And finally, Macro. I can't get a good read on this class yet because we really haven't had any assignments outside of attending the lectures. My professor looks like he took a wrong turn on the way to Wall Street and accidentally ended up at Virginia Tech instead. The way he dresses, carries himself, talks... Very impressive, and a nice guy from what I can tell. He definitely knows his stuff, unlike my Micro professor who was... unconventional, we'll say. XD

Oh, and math is math. I don't care to talk about it. XD



On a more personal note... Andy and I are back together! YAY! XD ♥ Back in August, we mutually decided to end things since we were both headed off to different schools in completely different parts of Virginia. I guess we never really got over each other though... So, long story short, we talked, and agreed to try out a long distance relationship for a while. Again: YAY! XD



Anyways, that's all I really have to say for now. I hope you guys are doing well! :D

Love,

Popo



PS: I'm so jealous of people who actually have musical talent. XD Castlevania and Apollo Justice.

(This is the first I've heard of Andy, IIRC. Mr. Popo?)

No love for Edgeworth? *insert "Objection!" joke*

I can't have you left in the dark, Samu! XD Here's an entry (http://popo-licious.livejournal.com/24758.html) and here's another (http://popo-licious.livejournal.com/25045.html), though I wasn't all that detailed. XD I wouldn't call him Mr. Popo, per se. He probably wouldn't like that too much. XD

Haha--Oh, Edgeworth... We were in love once, but now my heart as been carried away by an oversexed German rockstar who moonlights as a prosecutor. XD

...I love Ace Attorney. XD

Most likely Capcom doesn't want that Edgeworth game and AA5 to compete with each other for attention and sales.

Also, I totally think that if you pre-order the edgeworth game Capcom will throw in a pre-release demo of AA5 just to fuel the sales of both games 8D.


Also, Gavin is a wanker. >:(

YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT. XD Hahaha, to each their own. I think he's a fun character~!

You raise a good point about Edgeworth's game competing against the main series; I'm so blinded with AA love that I would imagine people would just buy both. XD

I don't know, last I checked Court records forums, he seemed to be the least popular prosecutor. Some people wanted him as the victim in one of the cases in AA5 XDXD

Also, since AA has a new prosecutor every game wouldn't that mean Klavier won't have a large role? :X

Yeah... I read that comment about him being a victim. AHEM. XD I think the biggest complaint is that he helps Apollo too much and doesn't particularly care about whether or not he wins, so long as the truth comes out in the end. I find his style refreshing, but I can see how people might miss a more ruthless enemy, like Edgeworth or Godot or... anyone who isn't Klavier. XD (And I expect him to pull and Edgey and show up for some totally epic final case. XD )

I can't have you left in the dark, Samu!

I'm old. My memory has more holes than a termite's underdrawers. ;-)

I'm glad your classes are going well! On the classes I had a choice, I heavily used ratemyprofessors.com to figure out which professor I should get and its worked out so far.
We kinda have the same schedule except that one of my classes is on T/Th. 4 a day would kill me! XD
((I'm really glad you're enjoying Java though. :D))

And I'm totally with Burning on my feelings for Gavin. ;P
...him aside, there's definitely no getting over you. :D

Maybe I'll try looking up some professors next semester. This time around, I really didn't have a choice when it came to picking my class sections. I took what I could get in the end. XP There was just no moving anything this time around because all of my courses seemed to meet MWF.

D'awww, don't hate on Klavie. XD You've got nothing to worry about. :3
