Loose Ends and Being in the Residence of Evil...

Accessing at an Internet Cafe for starters here. Needed to kill some time before moseying back into my former workplace to get some long-delayed clearance work done. I was a bit busy recovering from the entire call center while looking for another job. The only slight detail I forgot to recall was that most of the people I need to get the signatures done are basically nocturnal types thanks to the nature of a call center work enviroment.

That's the reason why I had to kill some time until its time for me to go back in there and get some signatures done. I had no recourse but to watch another round of "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" here in Glorietta 4.

I pretty much liked watching the 1st movie, but the second movie had a lot more to show. Fans of the videogame franchise would immediately recognize Jill Valentine, played by Sienna Guillory, and the Nemesis creature. Some of the familiar scene pieces are there, Nemesis chasing Alice through the RPD station (From RE:Nemesis game), the Hong Kong cinema inspired scene where Alice drops her gun to catch it and shoot 3 corporate goons (wherein it was done by Claire in RE: Code Veronica).

The movie was pretty much a popcorn muncher kind of movie as well as meritting a "check-your-brain-at-door" bit since what is to be expected from a movie based on a console game franchise that shows use of firearms and heavy weapons, zombie people and dogs, unleashed bioweapons and an evil megacorporation behind it all?

I have completed playing RE 1 to 3 and yet to continue on with RE: Code Veronica given the difficulty of inventory management, especially ammunition in the game. I'll probably get back to that when I have time, since I'm pretty much tied up with Star Ocean: Till The End of Time, which I have to concept mine for some ideas that may be relevant to my friend, Vin's Twilight Empires' universe.

All this thought on looking for other employment opportunities as well as settling things with my prior employer are pretty serious things to do and consider at our age and time now. This world we live in now has gotten so complicated and complex for its own good. That's how I see it. Or is it just me? I leave at that until I dredge up something new to post here. Next time.
