Mana Khemia: Classes hate me.
I got a C in mining the first time I tried it, so I'm going to try again.

I'm getting the hang of switching characters and doing chain attacks; unfortunately, I kept on forgetting who was hurt and how badly, so I kept on blocking with characters who had lower HP than the ones already out there. On the plus side, now that I can switch Vayne (who now has the worst healing spell ever courtesy of his armor) and Jess out to replenish their SP, I can actually stop hoarding Heal Jars. This is probably a good thing, because I went a little broke in the Resource Center shop (I didn't even buy everything) and then I started going even more broke buying up other stuff.

Exploring is really annoying due to the time limit (not being able to even stand there after nightfall, because monsters will totally bum rush me the second it hits evening). There's also a section of the Mana Ruins that requires perfectly-aimed jumps to get across a series of platforms to reach whatever's on top. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to get across them; the last time I tried to do something like that, my brother and I returned the game because we couldn't get across it. That would be extremely frustrating. That would actually cause me to stop buying video games, I think, because too many of them require totally unnecessary crap like that.

In other news, Mana Khemia has crashed twice; the Sims 2 has crashed three times. I'm not sure if it's the games or the PSP. It had better not be the PSP.

Also still sick, but getting better.
