G-g-g-gaming

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

I just paid my bills for the last month.5 and I’m negative. Considering I bought a tv and xbox plus some other random shit, i suppose it isn’t the end of the world.

Vesperia-1

This post isn’t really about money, it’s about games. I’ve been playing xbox religiously everyday after work for like the last week. It’s for a few hrs before i sleep, and it’s not as much as my SNES Chrono Trigger days, but damn is it a lot of time. I just picked up this game called Tales of Vesperia that was just released on the 27th here and it is so fucking confusing. I’m not used this new-school gaming where theres 1001 things to a battle system. I’m only used to magic + attributes. This game has magic + attributes + formation + real time crazyness + synthesizing + post-battle-cooking + combos + finishing moves + auto-strategy + personal calls to players you can’t control. zomg. My brains is going to sexplode.

Vesperia-2

If it’s not that, I’m playing Battle Field: Bad Company with Dave, Ee and Button (Eric) online. It’s fun because we only play the game as it’s meant to be played 20% of the time. The rest is playing tag with tracer/flare guns and attacking with medic kits.

There was one totally random game that I bought cause of Luke called Crack Down. Omg. This game is crack. It’s like playing through a Jacky Chan movie. You run, you bash. You upgrade and leap over fucking building while punching people across streets. GTA meats steroids + the future.

Holy Traci Lordes of the Ring my face is going to melt.

Step one..

put your junk in the box. Step two.. yeah.. i’ll stop there.

In a matter of about 30 days, I’ve gone from living at home, to living abroad, and much closer to work. Obviously, I’m liking it. I’m still not fully moved out.. in fact, I’m not even 80% moved out yet but I’m taking my time. Living out costs so much money, and I instantaneously feel the cash burn. I used to not even think twice about leaving the lights on in my room when I’d go out to grab something from the kitchen, but now, the first thing I do is think.. oh shit, maybe I should turn that off. Haha, it’s strange. I finally understand why everyone got there undies in a jumble over things like that.

Anyway, it’s been a full week as of tonight, and so far, I’m glad I’ve got a roomie. Hopefully all works out this next 6-8 months and we both won’t feel the need to sneak into each other’s rooms at night and bash the other’s face in with a rock.

To buy a tv, or not to buy a tv. That is the question.

August TODO:

  • Find a new gym/pool
  • Get cable tv
  • Learn to cook chinese food
  • Lose 10 mexican lbs
  • Seduce an animal and eat it.

swoon.. NOW!
Andy captured this lusty moment.

Wow that was not meant to be a euphemism, but now that I read it over, I don’t mind it. It’s a lot less obvious then mass debating. So while I was in training last week, I was debating.. mass debating in the chair in front of the rest of my coworkers about whether I should get up and relieve myself in the washroom. I didn’t and waited nearly 40 minutes to pee. I mass debated much too long.

Anyway, this post is about camping which happened about a month ago and as long ago as that is now, it’s actually even longer because this post comes like a week or two after my original sample post. Seriously this month has flown by so fast. I remember camping as if it was only a couple weeks ago, and now it’s August. What the hell?
