Oh? When did you hear that? I do like them but I haven't played tabletop games in quite a long while. I used to play Yugioh casually, (and pokemon TCG casually too) and back in University I used to play Dungeons and Dragons because our professor was an official D&D game master.
It's not that I particularly "quit" .. it's just difficult to find the time, money, and people when you've moved countries and support yourself. When I see single events like sneak preview tournaments/ tournies when you don't need to have a preset deck for, or one-off times like a random Magic the Gathering night on a Friday with a few workmates, I'll join. But otherwise, my other hobbies and responsibilities take over.
I do like Square Enix's other games. KH and TWEWY are some of my favourites, indeed! I also like Chrono Trigger! I enjoyed FF10 the most IMO, but I never had a chance to play a lot of them (never played 7,8 or 9) and FF3 is really good, too!

I loved going to the A and AA wing cause there was always cool stuff to look at. Typically was more interesting than what was near the Commons or B-wing Tim Horton's.
And if you're curious (I'm sure you are) I'm now graduated from Media Arts and working on a TV show in downtown Toronto. Yay Sheridanites!

I did enjoy my time at Sheridan.. but damn was my course ever difficult. I had a lot of nights where I cried myself to sleep because I worried so much about my skill and my future. I don't think its reputation is what it was that followed me- but I certainly took what I learned from there and I apply it to my day to day life (not just the art aspect but personal lessons I've learned in school, too.) I don't know about the latest Sheridan allumni winner- I haven't really been keeping to date- it's been like 3 and a half years since I've been in school, really!
I didn't live in Oakville in my first year and it was a horrible commute! (1 and a half hours each way, sometimes two hours, even!) Horrible! I couldn't even do my homework on the bus because I needed the animation tables for it.. and I would have to go there and work some weekends, too.
I stayed on residence for year 2-4, though. It was alright (I hate how they don't have locks on the door, though) but my last year was terrible because my roommate was this really self-centered, immature, 26 year old who had no respect for anyone and who was dirty (think.. loofa chalked-full of pubes that I had to look at every morning in the shower.. ugh.)
Yeah I like that wing :3 Lifedrawing area is awesome.

Also, divulge all the Sega secrets :pink_blush: We can keep a secret! :pink_tongue: Just kidding; I know you can't!

Hmm I had been to muskoka, blue mountain, niagara area, montreal, ottawa.. Is cape cod in Canada? I don't remember, haha.. I was there when I was very little. Been up to hudson's bay though! Never travelled anywhere else in Canada, but then again, I may be forgetting smaller places like Kitchener and all that.
:P
Sorry for the delay in the answers! But keep 'em coming! I enjoy them!
