As of late, I’ve been very engaged in several card games, both of the casino type and the online trading variety =)

Finally it appears as if the game of Presidents is being buried in favour of slightly more intelligent games, which is a very good thing. For example, yesterday I played Spades (which I just learned three days ago and is an extremely addicting thinking game) in Government, Presidents at lunch, and Chinese poker during 4th. Actually, it was amusing to play Chinese poker (which I haven’t played since.. I don’t know, the AP Biology trip!) with Trina/Ben/Steven, two of whom hadn’t played my version of the game before (using the poker hands). I got really energized during that hour-and-a-half, so in addition to kicking ass on the AP Macroeconomics exam, I had a day of card-playing. Very enjoyable.

You know, I could play cards for a week straight without stopping, and I don’t think I’d ever get tired. I spoke with Patrick about organizing a 48-hour marathon, only then I realized that… no one else except me could hold out for half that long :P

As for online, I’ve recently got back into TCGs. On a whim Wednesday night, I decided to open a female asian music TCG (Special Generation), haha. I was going to make a technology TCG, but there aren’t any uber-nerds who would join and stay interested =/ I’m hoping S.Gen (official abbreviation for the TCG) will live long and prosper due to the size of the fanbase! I managed to design/code the layout in under 30 minutes, and I’m churning out decks pretty fast, haha. The psd file I made allows me to create 1 puzzle deck in 5 minutes, and regular decks shouldn’t be all that hard either =)

Anyways, time for school, i.e. playing cards all day.
