So. LittleBigPlanet, about the only game I’ve been genuinely excited for in a looong time has been pushed back a couple of weeks. Why? Because one of the songs from the soundtrack references a couple of lines from the Qur’an.

Seriously. What the hell? Apparently, Muslims don’t like having lines from their holy text put into song. So what? I hate how PC we’ve become on recent years. Are Sony that shit-scared that they’re going to have their headquarters bombed over something so trivial? Pfft. If anything, this recall is going to have the complete opposite effect - You can bet a whole ton of Muslim themed levels and Muhammad Sackboys are going to show up after release.

Anyway, looks like we’re all going to have to wait a while before you get it. I’m thinking on pre-ordering it, but trying to find out who offers the best free stuff with it. Gamestation offers a cool looking Sackboy toy free with a pre-order… Interesting…

I went away down to York for a week. Was alright. Mostly wandering through city centers, which gets a little tiring after a while. Also… Yorkshire has a severe lack of music shops (proper music shops, that sell guitars and shit, not like HMV). In York and Leeds, I only found one. One. And it wasn’t a great one either. I’ve been trying to get a bass guitar for the past few months now, but the one I have my heart set on (Washburn T14, Natural Stain, for those interested) cannot be found anywhere.

I also had a job interview last Friday. “Woo”, I thought. I might actually be getting somewhere with this job-hunting malarkey. The interview went pretty well, I thought. I did really well on their little test thing, and the interviewer seemed pretty happy with my answers to her questions and whatnot. I was told I’d be given a phone call within the next day. Still no phone call. Suffice to say, I don’t think I got the job. Damn. Guess it’s time to apply to Tesco again. Surely they must have something by now? A friend of mine recently got a job in the Costa Coffee that sits in our local Tesco. Might have to try there as well. How hard can it be to make coffee?

Back to college tomorrow. Wonderful.
