Jaysus! My eldest starts school(ish) tomorrow! He'll be going to the nursery of the local primary school for the first time tomorrow, and then maybe three days a week after that (but the sessions are only 9am 'till 11am).

It's scary to think he's growing up!

After going to my friends wedding the other day, I thought it'd be fun to start planning my own wedding...

And upon doing so, I realised that I'm more of a nerd than I realised!

Or just a regular gamer.

I like games, I truly do, although most of the time I'll go for soft option games (Harvest moon, Animal Crossing, Worms, etc etc) but my first gaming love was (here comes the cliche!) Final Fantasy VII.

I grew up with games, our first being the Sega Megadrive way back when I was just a wee thing. We then got a snes (well, my brother did) I got an Original Gameboy... and things went from there, gradually upgrading usually a year after each new console was released.

I remember the day vividly we bought FFVII... my mother, younger brother and I were in our local woolworths store, and my brother (being the reader of PlayStation Magazine) picked up a copy of said game.

I scoffed, loudly, saying any game my brother decided was good had to suck immensly!

Boy was I wrong!

Anyway, to save you on more pointless drivel, A couple of songs in the actual wedding ceremony i have planned out are songs from FFVII.

While the guests are waiting for the ceremony to start, I though either 'water' from FFVII:AC or possibly 'ahead on our way'. When I arrive to make my graceful walk down the aisle... the musci playing wouldn't be any of the atypical wedding march type music. No! Instead I would rather play the song 'On the other side of the mountain'.

Now if that wasn't nerdy enough to have (Vivaldi Spring second movement possibly for us leaving together), I had another idea which would need impeccable timing from whomever is in charge of the music that day...

Oh yes my dear friends... music playing specifically for the kiss! And it's entirely possible that you're also a fan of FFVII... and that an idea is forming in your minds already, jumping to the same nerdy conclusion I myself reached!

Indeed, the 'Victory Fanfare' for the kiss! Admittidly just the fanfare, not the rest of the song however.

I wish I had more nerd friends who would find this funny

Oh, all links point to piano music rather than in game music.

And I'm such a game nerd I have a moogle tattoo!
