I haven't used this enough. I probably should but I haven't felt the urge to. Let's talk 2009 though.
2009 was the year that my "go three years without any sort of female interaction/lovin' then have it happen randomly" thing finally didn't happen and this is probably a good thing. This year was also me finally realizing that I'm twenty-six years old and going nowhere in life so I should probably do something about it and I will be so next fall I'm enrolling back into school for computer science and getting the fuck away from this state for good when I'm done. It'll be a slow and mostly painful process but I need to get my life on track.
This year also made me realize that I just can't put up with stupid bullshit anymore, especially at work, so I've kind of grown into an asshole and opened my mouth probably way more than I should have. This will be fixed as I actually am not really into disliking/hating things and people for no reason because I end up regretting it in the end.
Musically this was kind of a diverse year for me as I ended up liking a lot more than I should have (LOL I'M SO METAL LOL) but once again my favorite album was not really from a metal band although the second album on my list which I guess I'll post eventually was totally metal as fuck.
Things I am determined to do in 2010: Stop smoking (lolol), go back to school, become a happier person overall, and maybe socialize a little more with people who don't just drink all the time. This is all (hopefully) doable. |

I feel like I've become a hermit. This is probably not a good thing. |

Taking over the world is hard. Maybe I should have new goals.
It's been about a month and still, nothing interesting goes on. I guess such is life in the glorious white-trash wonderland that is South Carolina. Well, I guess I did decide that next fall I'm starting up college again but this time I'll be majoring in something I at least halfway enjoy doing and learning about.
Also been playing WoW a bunch recently. I still don't see myself ever getting super addicted or anything but it's captured my attention at the very least.
I don't know what else to type. Fuck. |

Lately I've been thinking about joining the military just to get out of this rut I'm seemingly trapped in. Most of the reason is that I still don't know what I want to go to school for and while I guess that works for some people, I'd rather just go in with a plan and stick to it. Maybe I'm just being impatient, I don't know. Also, there's no hope for me ever getting anywhere with my job and it's getting far more frustrating than I can take right now.
Alternative to the plan above: Just fucking bolting somewhere up north to probably be happier than I am here. I really wanna do this but I want to be responsible about it.
Other than life being shitty sometimes (which is my own fault honestly), things are great! |

I went out tonight with a girl who I haven't seen in a million years to a bar and I was quickly reminded as to why I had a thing for her awhile back. ffffffffffuuuuuuuuuu. I guess this means I am capable of having feelings.

It's been awhile.
This past weekend was the biggest fighting game tournament in the world. So awesome. It's definitely inspired me to get better at SF4 along with BlazBlue so I'm going to give some serious dedication to both games so I can take some dudes down at Final Round next year. Gettin' hype!
Note to internet: Never play circle of death with Bud Light. Gross. Also my fucking mouse is double-clicking at will fffffffffuuuuuuuu.
One day I will do more than one entry a month I promise. |

I swear, one day I need to stop saying that I'm going to better myself and just go out and do it. Actually I really should just go through a drug phase as I'm pretty sure I'd magically understand where I could be one day. I feel like I have an internal dialogue about this at least once or twice a day.
LJ is boring and I can't keep myself away for some reason.

There's not much I have to write about my trip this weekend and I'm still not home but I guess I will be tonight unless I get killed while in the air. Anyway, summary time!
-- The weather here is so much better than in the south holy shit.
-- Tits were just about everywhere and it made me a happy duffey.
-- They were pretty big too.
-- The whole thing wasn't nearly as cringe-worthy as I thought it'd be. Weeaboos were actually not bugging me much, I got rickrolled in real life, and I had fun.
-- All in all I might do this again next year.
Next entry will probably be more detailed as I like doing those sorts of things but yeah, good times. |

I'm going to Dallas next week. Kind of nervous about it because I've never really left the east coast at all and it's been a really long time since I've been out of state. Having said that, below is what I'm going to be encountering for a weekend.
Truth be told, I'm not entirely sure how I got talked into this but if I can get away for a day and just walk around the city aimlessly I'll consider the trip a success. Or if I see this I'll also be a happy camper. Whatever. |

Mirror's Edge is pretty sweet.
I've been on a mega-huge black metal/prog metal kick lately. I'm pretty aware that the two are not mutually exclusive but I'm sure I'll find something that blends the two together and flip out in excitement. Black metal is something I've only recently (in the past year maybe) gotten pretty into and I still pretty much prefer a lot of the somewhat recent material in comparison to the early wave of black metal and a lot of it has to due with production. While I get why it was done it doesn't make me appreciate it any more than some people. I guess I'm not "kvlt." Sadface. In any case I do like the more strange black metal artists more than anything, or at least bands that started out that way then moved into a completely different direction. Arcturus, Mayhem (sorta?), Ulver, Sólstafir, Enslaved, Nachtmystium, Sigh, Rotting Christ, etc. All are awesome and worth checking out, I think.
I'm really starting to hate days off. Aghhhh. |

It's been awhile, I guess. Things have finally happened though!
A couple weeks back my friend who I mentioned before with the retarded relationship finally ended it but not before she decked him in the face and gave him a ocular blow-out fracture. Now he looks like Nick Fury! In any case for about a week the whole situation turned into this high school drama-fest that I refuse to take part in despite people trying to lure me in and it's irritating to say the least. I hate people.
Going to try to quit smoking again. The past few days I've been trying to be more calm about things and I've lost most if not all desire to smoke. I don't really have a physical habit anymore so at least I can beat that. I'm pretty much ready mentally and I'm going about it probably the wrong way again (cold turkey) but if I can go a few days without I should be okay.
My job has been going okay I guess. Hours are coming in finally so I'm doing a little more than just sitting at home on the internet which isn't fun at all! My manager finally hired some people and one of them is cute and not retarded. Also she's my age, divorced, and has a six year old. Hell yeah. If I didn't work with her I'd try to hook up with her but it appears I would have massive competition already so yeahhh staying away from that.
Uhhhh what else what else... I got my ass kicked at a Street Fighter 4 tournament last weekend! So awesome! Okay I think that's it actually. |

I'm going to type about something other than videogames. Shock and awe!
My best friend moved to Houston to be with his on/off again girlfriend. I believe they've split up and gotten back together at least twelve times but I've sort of lost count at this point. I've not yet thought about it much but it kinda pains me to say the least but mostly because he's the one constant that I've had since the ever-so-tragic move to South Carolina. Suffice to say, will definitely miss but will always keep in contact with. It's no fun having him not around anymore though.
Another friend of mine has a similar lightswitch firmly attached to his heart with his girl and it's driving me insane. On one hand, I promised long ago that I wouldn't meddle in people's business. I just have a preference to let things play out. People learn more from mistakes than they do advice. On the other hand, he's brought out a sort of anger inside of me that I've kept to myself because when he does ask me for advice, I tend to say things like "FUCKING BREAK UP WITH HER GOD-DAMMIT." The response is usually "...but I love her." Their relationship is pretty terrible from an outsider's perspective. She more or less cheats on him, steals his shit, and uses him for everything he has. Basically battered wife syndrome. It sucks because hanging out with him has basically become him bitching about her and doing nothing about it. I really want to tell him off sometimes but I don't think I have the heart to. Oh well.
Also, a picture.

Tonight I went over to GameStop to pick up Resident Evil 5. Pretty big line over there and it was pretty sweet to see some people I haven't seen in awhile. I guess this makes me a huge nerd going to a midnight launch for a game/seeing and talking to friends who are also there for that but if that's what it is then whatever. Anyway, I've been joking for a few weeks about buying 50 Cent Blood on the Sand because the story in that game is so ridiculous that I felt like I must play it. So I go up to pay for RE5 and then I realize how retarded I am and decided to buy 50 Cent. The dude ringing me up goes "wait, you're serious?" I told him I was dead serious about buying the game of the year obviously. So then he rings it up and tells the remaining 30 people in the store that I bought the game. Suddenly I hear golf claps and for whatever reason some dudes gave me a bunch of high fives. Victory is mine.
I come home and start playing 50 Cent because I just wanted to figure out if it was any good. I knew going in that it might very well be one of the worst games ever but the premise being borderline hilarious was a selling point to me. Suddenly an hour later I had a revelation.
Holy shit, it's pretty good. The reviews of the game suddenly all make sense and I was having a blast. Picture Gears of War without the roadie run. It's a solid game but what tipped me off the most was the fact that it took a lot of stuff from The Club which is a completely underrated gem. The Club is basically a third person shooter where you have to kill dudes to rack up combos and you have to do it fast. 50 Cent plays kind of like that but with the benefit of having a (hilariously terrible) story to follow so the levels aren't linear paths with an endpoint. I guess I could write more about the game but that would probably be pretty insane. It's fun and worth checking out.
On the flipside of things that aren't video games, things are going a-okay. I have jury duty next week which might or might not kill my hours at work depending on how long the trial lasts. Normally I wouldn't mind doing this but next week I have a pretty beefy amount of hours and to have that pissed away as a result of a likely shitty trial to sit in sucks. Things could be worse I suppose. |
