Let the Heckling Begin!



            So I haven’t written here in like forever, but I’m not even going to go into that, because I’m here now to start getting a schedule together. That’s all this post is going to be about, me putting together a few goals before I head back off to post-secondary education.  

            Firstly I want to become consistent with this blog, to help with that I’m going to give this blog a clear definition. I will talk about things that are interesting to me. That means that there are going to be E-sports posts, there will be ones where I rant about stupid things people do, I will talk about my personal thoughts on a variety of subjects. I will occasionally rant about what a dork I am. I will talk about cute girls; I will talk about a good restaurant I might go to. I will post pictures that are related to all these topics.  There will be many Calvin and Hobbes references. I am definitely going to talk about music in games and movies, as well as games and movies. I will probably say things that people will subsequently call me out on. It’ll be a good time. I will criticize almost everything.

           - I’m going to read 3 full books by the end of the summer. Any suggestions?

          -  I’m going to reach Diamond rank on Starcraft 2, and complete a play through of Pikmin and The Legend of Zelda: Wink Waker and Ocarina of Time.

           - I’m going to learn to cook 4 new dishes.      

         -   I am going to find a steady exercise schedule and be consistent with it.

          -  I will go on at least 2 dates.  

          -  I will discover one new band that no one else knows about (Hipster cred inc!)

            We’ll cut if off there for the sake of being realistic. I think Starcraft, exercise, and dates will be the hard ones on this list. Ok blogging consistently will be the toughest, but that’s a given.  Still, dates will be difficult just because of what a recluse I am and breaking out of that shell. Exercise because well because I’m pretty freaking lazy. Starcraft because it’s a really difficult game to get good at, and I’m prone to getting really really frustrated at myself when I play it. I think if I accomplish the other two difficult tasks though I should just become a happier person which will make it easier to tolerate the rage inducing nightmare that is the battle.net ladder.  

            Why blog this though? Because the biggest lesson I’ve learned in my life knows when you are beyond your own capabilities. Not that I can’t do these things. Just that I know that I won’t on my own. So I humbly ask whoever reads this, to please pester and bother me about accomplishing these things. Pick the ones you want me to do and hassle me. I think that’s manageable. Another excuse to get on my case? Gladly. That’s what I imagine most of you are thinking about this. That’s all for now, happy pestering!

            Don't think I forgot about that 30 topic thing though, nice and quick. Something little that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. The ending to Rudy. Goodness me I love that movie and I hate how it can just play with my emotions like that, but it can. If you haven't seen it, let me know. I have a copy and will gladly loan it to you. Heck I could even watch it with you if you want to see me nearly break into tears. 



So good.....

Turn ons...Risque?


               If the world was going to end tomorrow what would you do with the time you had left?
               First off I’d make sure my conscious was at peace and say some quick but meaningful goodbyes to the important people in my life. Then I’d do really stupid and risky stuff until I accidently killed myself, cause I decide what the terms of my death are, not you, you silly hypothetical disaster.
               A T.V. show I’ve become addicted to.
Sherlock. Like the BBC one that only has like 6 episodes in total. It’s brilliant. Watched the last three this weekend. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman make a brilliant Holmes and Watson respectively. It’s just how a modern day Sherlock would be like and I love it. Go watch it now or something.
Turn on’s and off’s.
Oh boy will this be fun. Or disastrous. Well it’s going to be fun for someone I suppose. Let’s begin with the turn offs.
1.      Overdone makeup. I don’t even think this one is all that unique to me. It just show that someone is trying to hard. We all know that try-harding is frowned upon. Unless you are playing ranked games. What would the social equivalent of that be? Speed dating? No, maybe something like if you and some of your friends kept track of how many guys asked for your number and compared at the end of each week or something. Weird. Try-harding is bad.
2.      Not trying. I know I just poked fun at girls that put too much effort in but really, yoga pants + hoody with no sign of care is just plain bothersome. Some people can attest to this as I may or may not have even put incentives forward in the form of bets to get certain girls to “try” again. It was for the best, and I regret nothing.
3.      Uninformed opinions being put out and then defended mindlessly. I notice this most when the topic of da gamez comes up. To many girls pass it off as a complete waste of time and then proceed to get upset when I call their terrible TV shows (See MTV/TLC for details) a waste of time as well.  I would actually be ok with them thinking video games were stupid if they would just accept that those shows are stupid as well. At least we’d be on even ground then. (Even though that’s not true, da gamez are 100 times superior to that kind of television. IMO) None the less that apparently just can’t happen. So stupid people remain stupid.
4.      One-trick ponies. You all know those people who only know how to tell one kind of joke, or always steer the conversation towards one thing. I’m definitely guilty of this at times, but you know what I’m trying to say here. The people that are only interested in a single activity. That kinda stuff. Like I love da gamez, but I really like doing other things as well.

That’s enough of that for now, let’s move on to the good things in life or girls, whatever same thing.

1.      Wit. Is it too much to ask that when I go off into a tangent that a girl is capable of keeping up? Maybe so, but if they can. WHOOOOO! Running with that, a girl that can not only handle my sarcasm, but throw it right back at me is instantly attractive.
2.      Being able to rock a casual look, like jeans/t-shirt or something on a similar tier of fashionness. I prefer this to girls who wear like really formal clothing not because I don’t appreciate all the hard work they put into things like that. (Believe me, I appreciate it) but because it’s the look I’m going to see most often, if its one that works well for you then that’s just great right?
3.      Being able to play a unique instrument. Piano/Guitar are boring frankly, cool, but everyone and their grandma in southern Alberta can. Violin? Sexy. Cello? Baller. Trumpet? Pretty neat.
4.      A girl who CAN play games. I am in no way saying I want a gamer girl. I honestly don’t know any girls that can come close to my level of knowledge of games, and while that would be pretty cool, I’d really like to meet a girl that can simply appreciate why these games are really cool would be legit. Maybe even could enjoy cuddling up to watch come MLG’s would be AWESOME! This also extends to sports as well. It’s cool if a girl really can play a mean game of soccer or something, but an all-out sports girls is just too much. It goes back to the try-hard thing. Stereotypical gamer girls are either using it only to appeal to nerdy guys, or have an obsession with them. Finding balance is what I like. That was all over the place.
5.      Green eyes. They’re nice.
6.      Girls who don’t just listen to what’s popular, but can appreciate it.
7.      Reasonable independence. Like when a girl can handle herself, but doesn’t need to tell every R-tard she runs into about how she can handle herself.
8.      Looks wise, a few inches shorter than me (so they can wear heels is they so desire, see how considerate I am?) moderately curvy, but really the looks are focused up on the face. I’m a face guy, it’s really the best part of a girl to look at. Dark hair, medium length. Cute smile, you know, standard stuff right?

`              I am now realizing that I described a green eyed Asian girl. Interesting. Very Interesting.
Well this was another fun one to do. I really enjoy these sort of things. Lots of fun to be had. And that leaves us with only 12 topics left! That’s like another 6 months of content based on how often I post!
