Previously on the Pros and Cons of Living.....
So.....
It's been a long time, around the end of August to be exact. I mean, I guess its to be expected. The better half was full-timing it at the working scene, while I moved back to what I do best....sleeping in class :-D Or as I like to sometimes call it being a full-time student with as many breaks I want.
Seriously though, this being my final year at Western (crossing my fingers, I hope you are too), I figured it was time to buckle down and finish up my undergraduate career. I took Biology 101, Pacific Northwest History, and Historical Methods. It was an intense quarter and it gave me a run for my money. Surprisingly, I can't take multiple-choice test anymore, I guess the many years of reading and writing hurt that once amazing skill of mine.
On the non-school side, I was officially promoted to Customer Service representative 1 at the Crappy Yellow Tag. Which was awesome and much better than what I had been doing before. I also cancelled my WoW account, which for those who know me was something I was spending money on but not actually taking advantage of. Unfortunately, that did not mean I stopped gaming. I picked up Ninja Gaiden/Ninja Gaiden Black, X-Men Legends II, and Smackdown v Raw 2006. All fine games and worth the money. Still need to get through Ninja Gaiden (in the top ten for this past counsole generation) and X-Men Legends II.
Which brings me to the X-Box 360. I've been trying to get a hold of one since launch and am asking for it this Christmas...I probably won't be getting one, DAMN MICROSOFT AND THEIR STUPID MARKETING STRATEGY!!!!! But its okay, I can wait for awhile...I think....I hope, I just keep hearing about it from people at work and school and it is enticing me. Also, if the Ninja Gaiden sequel is a Microsoft-exclusive, count me in I guess?!?!
Finally, but definently not least, comes the best part of the past three months. My girl and I celebrated our two-year anniversery this year. And I can't be happier. I hope for many more memories and I want to thank her for being the best....I'm just realizing this is crossing into being really mushy. So I'll leave it at that....Wait, I want to give credit to her for slowly getting me back to drawing stuff. I've drawn a couple of pieces I'm proud to call, well pieces. And I'm sketching more again. Cheers to that!!!!
Anyways, I'm gonna call it good for now. Hopefully I'll be posting more regularly here and maybe, just maybe I can start posting some artwork on here. No promises, but here's hoping.
