I started playing Zelda: Ocarina of Time a year ago…playing to around the beginning of Death Mountain…didn’t even make it to Dodongo’s Cavern (second dungeon), after picking it up and dropping it many times. Eventually, I hadn’t touched it in so long that I figured I should just restart. Not that I made it very far anyways…

I recently decided to re-pick up the game….again, I played until I beat the Deku tree and stopped. Not very far again. Well, today I spent much of the day playing…started from right after the Deku tree…right now I’m on my way to Zora’s Domain. I started today with 4 Skulltula tokens this morning and I have 23 right now. I had 0 1/4 heart pieces this morning and have 13 1/4 heart pieces right now.

Oh. I should note that I had today and have tomorrow off :) I’ve spent considerable time buying bottle bugs and earning the money back via the Shooting Gallery. +30 Rupee profit for each successful game. I’ve also spent considerable time slowing travelling as a child. So slow. Reminds me of WoW.

I kinda know how Ocarina of Time works…Links starts off as a child but at some point, turns into an adult. I’m trying to make sure I have EVERYTHING that I can get as a child, before I turn into an adult. I have no idea if it’s possible to turn back to a child (while this seems impossible, Ocarina of Time indicates some kind of time travel…right? Maybe not…I don’t know yet but I don’t wanna be spoiled, so don’t tell me.

Don’t tell me anything. I wanna find out as I continue.

Anyways, I’m working towards the 100 Skulltula tokens…tho I’d be happy with 50 as I can earn money quite easily. I’d definitely need to get the 32(?) 1/4 heart pieces…

Anyways, I’m happy with how things are going. Yes, I played most of the day and only did one dungeon…again…but I’m working hard in getting the other stuff….slowly working my way through to 100%. That’s how I roll.

Contemplating going out tomorrow morning to run some errands but tomorrow might be completely focused on Zelda: OoT as well….who knows, maybe I’ll finish within the next week! :D That’d be awesome.

Unfortunately, there already is one MAJOR spoiler that I’m aware of, which has to do with Zelda…I learned it accidentally as I researched Super Smash Bros. Brawl…too bad because I figure it’s one of those spoilers that could turn a game from “awesome” to “mind-blowing” :( Ah well, nothing I can do….that’s what I get for playing this game….15 years after it’s made?

Oh yeah, my goal is still to finish before the Zelda: Ocarina of Time comes out for Nintendo 3DS. I’m already wondering what to play next….Majora’s Mask? Twilight Princess? Final Fantasy XIII? Final Fantasy X? Mario Galaxy? Metal Gear Solid 3…followed by Metal Gear Solid 4? All these games are so old….I’m so behind.
