Midterms Finished, Doom and Doom 3

"To all of those people who still have Midterm exams, all the very best!"

Heh heh, I finished my Midterm exams about an hour back (I had just one, Ethics) and I am now sitting here in the Computer Centre downloading a Doom 3 Video Level Editing Tutorial.  Not that I am going to edit Doom 3 levels anytime in the near future, but I'd just like to have a look.  Yesterday during the SADN (System Analysis and Design) Lab Class, I had a Doom 3 Multiplayer Video download going on.  Before the class, I read Gamespy's six-page-plus "Director's Cut" review for Doom 3.  When I downloaded Barista and Barista 2 (mentioned on Doomworld) and that multiplayer video, I realised that FilePlanet isn't so bad after all!

On Monday night, I watched M. Night Shyamalan's latest movie, The Village.  I liked the movie although the print (of the VCD they showed at The Den, where I watched it) was not too good.  Anyway the twist at the end is as usual very surprising!  The first part of the movie took me a little work to follow, and I think I will need to watch it again to absorb everything.

My PCI graphics card still hasn't arrived, although I hope to get it today.  Then I will finally be able to use my computer!  I have several classic-Doom related things to do, like watch several demos, play several WADs (including Ismaele's recently released Red Eye); not to mention watch all those videos I downloaded recently.

EDIT (12:40): Due to the speed being quite slow now, I stopped the download of that level editing video thingy.  Instead I am going to save the four Counterfrag Doom 3 Hi-res Wallpapers that Doomworld mentioned (WARNING: they contain spoilers), and possibly download WinMBF.
