4:25 am - It's 4 AM yet again...
|
It must be my curse.
I tried to go to bed on time tonight at midnight to get myself back on a normal sleeping schedule so I wouldn't be up until 8 AM anymore. Well, it failed, and here I am after four hours of sleep. Hopefully, I'll be awake enough to stay that way until tonight at Mystic Realms.
In any case, I've been thinking about things lately, mostly my life and the decisions I've made. Some were good, some were bad...some were really bad actually...but they were my decisions, and I live by them, whatever they were. What I've done, and what I do is who I am. Do I come across as an asshole as some people say that I am? Sometimes I'd think so, I can tend to not be very consciencious of other people's feelings when I do something that directly affects them...and to that, I feel sorry for, it's not something I should have done.
I tend to isolate myself socially when it comes to everyone around me. Mystic Realms is a pretty good case example of that. Sometimes I simply prefer to sit alone than to be a part of some activities that aren't what I want to do. Namely, last Inverness there was supposed to be a Tournement for all the Tradesmen to participate in, but popular demand turned it into a Bloodbowl. I was pissed, and I let people know it. I didn't get what I wanted and I acted like a child, not getting a toy while in the check out line.
I'm going to try something different this weekend. I'm going to attempt to be a nice guy...
...that being, withholding biting comments to how and who people are, acting like the mature person I know I can be, being conscious of other people's feelings, and lastly, and most importantly, for me to concentrate on having a good time with what is presented to me, and to what I can present to the PCs.
Christopher being a Nice Guy? Can he do it?!
You'll find out after the weekend. Stay tuned!!
current mood:  hopeful

I thought this was an interesting return for the quiz.
You are the Sun card. The light of the Sun reveals
all. The Sun is joyful and bright, without fear
or reservation. The childish nature of the Sun
allows you to play and feel free. Exploration
can truly take place in the light of day when
nothing is hidden. The Sun's rays fill you with
energy so that you may live life to its
fullest, milking pleasure out of each day. Such
joy and energy can bring wealth and physical
pleasure. To shine in the light of day is to
have confidence, to soak up its rays is to feel
the freedom of a child. Image from: Stevee

Well, there is another setback in my life, my car, which until now has been totally reliable and resourceful, just took a dump. Luckilly, I have a backup vehicle available for transportation and work, and more importantly...to get to school.
During work, I noticed that my hood seemed to be giving off the same effects as an incense candle...only it was not smelling of cinnamon, rather, of funky car fumes that flooded the cab and made me light-headed. Glorious. In my haste to get home, I had to repeatedly shift into neutral, and turn the car off while still moving, just to keep it from overheating and seizing. It was an adventure in desperation.
Ah well. I actually like driving the van, though it's lack of a CD player is a bit of a setback.
I've been playing less of World of Warcraft lately, and frankly, I don't miss it too much. I canceled my subscription to save myself money, and took up old interest in Elder Scrolls : Morrowind [which I -finally- beat] and the never-ending hack-fest that is Diablo II. I love Zealot-Shock Paladins.
School is going well, the class is going to visit the Morris County Correctional Facility [AKA : The Big House!] on November 14th. It should prove to be an interesting experiance.
I can't wait for Oblivion to come out. It looks to be everything that I wanted the Elder Scrolls series to become in a CRPG. The graphics look nice, but that's really not the important thing for me in a video game...it's the gameplay and most importantly...the replay value. Let's face it, when's the last time you picked up your copy of Final Fantasy VII and played through it all eagerly? If you did it once, hell...twice, that's not good enough. Elder Scrolls gives you a nice array of options for which you can play, sticking to the basic guidelines of three classes...fighter, mage, thief. I can easilly sit all night and just generate characters. In fact, I do that alot with games I play....
In any case, I'm rambling, so I'll let you...my most dedicated reader...go on to something else now. Thank you for reading this. :)

See this? Right here? Bullshit. Give me a full suit of armour, a huge sword, and someone to kill...oh yeah, and a good reason for killin' him/her/it.
Can't let me D&D morals slip now, can I?
Monk
92% Combativeness, 66% Sneakiness, 64% Intellect, 58% Spirituality |
Pretty much good at everything: You are a Monk!
No, not a monk like those bald medieval guys. The Monk in D&D is a martial artist. They're smart, they're capable, they're spiritual, they're sneaky when they want to be, and they're damn dangerous in a fight.
What to say? You scored high on all four categories, which means that you're probably a well rounded and capable person. Either that or you're an overly smart and dangerous psychopath. |
 |
My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
|
You scored higher than 99% on Combativeness |
|
You scored higher than 90% on Sneakiness |
|
You scored higher than 50% on Intellect |
|
You scored higher than 75% on Spirituality |

Allright, now I'm really angry. Why the fuck am I NEVER in anyone's Mystic Realms pictures? I'm good looking! I've no deformities or socially unacceptable growths in the middle of my face...in fact, I'm downright gorgeous!!
....oh wait...I'm a cranky bastard.
Nevermind.
For the record, where the fuck did this guy go?
Just look at that guy, he's crazy I tell you. I don't trust him, and neither should you.

2:11 am - Elaborated Update
|
I've given this alot of thought for a while now, and though it seems to be something that I would never, ever, do...I've decided to go into a career of law enforcement. Why? There are a few reasons, some alot more prominant than others. For your reading pleasure, I shall list them in...
Christopher's Top Ten Reasons For Going Into Law Enforcement
1. Job Security. There will always be crime, and need for those to handle it.
2. Job Excitement. I cannot ever do a desk job, or anything else that is tedious and repetitious. IE : Computer Programming.
3. Pay. Officers don't make the best money, but it's a definate chunk of change to live off of.
4. Challenge. I like thinking and making decisions. I like to learn and to understand new things.
5. Authority. I enjoy the responsibility and support that an officer can provide.
6. Uniform. Cops look good, let's admit it, especially the State Trooper uniform.
7. Guns. I like firearms. While I am not a violence-seeking militant, I do like firearms and target shooting.
8. Community. I feel I would enjoy my neighborhood more if I had an active part in it's daily ordinance and operation.
9. Respect. Mostly from myself. I never had the best self-esteem, despite my massive ego.
10. Protection. For my friends, my family, and those I care about.
I am now twenty three years old. Five years out of high-school, and this is the first I've been to college. In some ways, I am happy, and it's fortunate that I waited. If I went earlier for a career in teaching, I would have switched my major and wasted alot of money. God forbid I went into the military like I -was- planning, I would have turned out alot differently, and definately for the worse, I feel. On top of that, I would have been sent overseas. I don't want to sound like a coward, or anti-military, but my personality and mindset have changed over the years to what I feel is for the better. One of the minor reasons for me wanting to go into law enforcement is the militaristic lifestyle but in a civilian status.
I enjoy my life, I like what I have experianced, and where it is going. All of the pain and suffering that have been experianced have brought to light new thoughts, new maturity, and above all...new friends.
Those that I call 'friend' now really are a cut above the friends I had back in the day. With Mystic Realms, I've gained trusted companions and people I can share secrets with, something that I could never do confidentally with friends from high-school years. I enjoy my life, I enjoy who I am, what I am, and who I shall become.
I'll keep you posted.

1:14 pm - Finally - An Update!
|
So here's the skinny, I've been on my ass for about 3 or 4 years now, and I'm getting a bit tired of being a loser. I finally went and signed up for college, and got a new job as well as a new car. Things are going well, Amy is showing improvement, and I'm getting my trainwreck of a life on track for where I want to go. Things are looking up.
current mood:  happy
