Today, I decided to stop playing Street Fighter IV (and any other video game for that matter) as an initiative to prepare myself properly for this semester of school. I have a habit of playing games or staying on the computer (doing nothing) when I know I should be studying. As a result, I end up regretting it. I will not be renewing my Xbox Live subscription when it expires this month. Don’t get me wrong, I haven’t stopped playing for good. When friends come over or if there’s a get-together, I’ll still play. It’s just that I won’t be playing on my own time anymore. I told Crimson Viper about the news, she’s still angry about it. She really wants to (crouch) Heavy Punch-> Thunder Knuckle cancel-> (crouch) Heavy Punch-> EX Seismic Hammer-> High Jump-> (in air) Heavy Burning Kick-> Burst Time my ass into oblivion. It’s alright though. Just like a real girl, I still love her and there’s a place for her in my heart. (rofl)

So… something random. I was cleaning out the shoe closet earlier today and I found my old trombone from middle school. I’ve had this thing since 6th grade. It’s in horrible, beat up condition; dents and scratches everywhere. It’s been over three years since I’ve played a trombone. I put it together and I remembered all of the positions. It must be a second nature thing, muscle memory. I tried to play it and it sounded horrible, it’s clearly broken. I decided to pawn it off for $20. May not be much, but I needed it taken off my hands. If I had taken better care of it, it would’ve sold for much more.

Another random, I’m thinking about buying a DSLR. Well actually, I almost DID. I almost made an impulse buy at work today on a Nikon D40, but decided to hold back. I mean, I have the money to pay for it (barely), but I have a small problem with parting with a large sum of money at once. You see, I usually tend to ball up and cry so hard until I end up throwing up what I ate for lunch all over the checkout counter. It’s a medical disease called “spending”. Nah, but seriously, I’m going to continue saving up  for a better camera. I know that I’m pretty new and beginner to this whole photography deal, but I’m just going to hold off, do a bit of research, and invest in a better camera. I’ll be throwing up chunks then.

I have a week until school starts. Just enough time for me to start working out again and practice some 한글.
