For some odd reason, every sunday, no matter what I did the day before, I'm always really tired. Does my body just know when to rest, or am I just thinking that I'm more tired than usual? I dont know. Its odd, but I sort of like being stuck in my room all day ^_^
But it does get old, I hope this doesn't happen often over the summer. Which reminds me, what am I going to do this summer? I'm hoping I can work out a deal with the neighborhood so I can mow the Boat Club's lawn every other week or so, because I would make SERIOUS cheddar if I did that. But if I don't get to mow the lawn...oh well. I can find ways to make cash and have a good time over the summer, there's an infinite( not actually infinite) number of opportunities for me to make money this summer.

Torchlight? Gnarly!
I recently purchased the game Torchlight, (and my recently I mean two hours ago). So anyways, It's an amazing game. It fits the Diablo style perfectly, the classes are fairly unique, and the satisfaction you get when you're continually upgrading your gear is wonderful and not often found. my issues with the game? The controls. and interface. The controls arent that bad to get used to, but the interface is abysmal. but hey, its just the interface, that's not enough for me to hate the game. All in all, its a really fun game that I will find myself losing alot of time to, and the non-linear story along with being open world is perfect.

Sharing.
Late last night, my friend chats me on Facebook and tells me to get on Steam. I quickly log on, wondering what it was that was so urgent for him to show me. In about a minute I then received pop up message. What did that pop up entail? It was my friend gifting me a really cool game that was on sale at the time. I didn't even care that it was on sale, I was touched by my friend's constant simplicity and sharing that he gives. He's honestly one of my best friends, and I don't see how he is so nice all the time. Keep in mind though, that he has given me random gifts like this in the past too, so I felt greatly in debt to him after this event. And I told him that. But to my surprise, he says that I don't have to repay him!
But don't worry, I'll bring him some big surprise within the next month, it's just the right thing to do.
Only the third blogpost?!
Gah, I completely blanked on any thoughts that I could have written about for this blog post and the next. Oh wait, I do have two fairly fresh thoughts that I could write about!
So, first one goes like this. Last night, I was playing some League of Legends. I never played LoL often, and I still qualified myself as a total noob at the game. So I log in, join in on a match, and pick a cool looking champion from the list of randomly selected champions that are free for that week. His name was Graves. A ranged carry that was an all around bad ass with interesting abilities. The match starts, and I soon realize that I am soloing the middle lane; the most important lane in a match (keep in mind it's teams of five going up against eachother). I'm having a mediocre start because Graves is fairly weak very early on in game, but I soon pick up the lead in not only level but also gold and kills.
Now, my (very limited) prior experience to LoL has not been the best. I would always play weaker champions (without knowing it) and get my face grinded into the dirt by people that knew what they were doing. So when I'm playing Graves, I realize that he is a total ganker, as in he can sneak up on an enemy, completely massacre them, and run away without taking more than a minuscule amount of damage. It was really fun. So fun, that I laughed multiple times at how powerful my champion was. It was a blast. Sadly, the rest of my team was pretty much relying on me to keep the team afloat, and there were really skilled players on the enemy team, so we lost without too much of a fight. But it was a fun experience in a game that I don't usually have fun playing ^_^

Gnarly Ollie!
About a month ago, sitting in the mall, I decided to buy some skateboard wheels and trucks. I already had a blank deck back at home, and I decided that today would be a good day to learn how to skateboard. So, I go home, build my deck, and just let it sit there, because it's a sunday and it's also fairly late; not enough time to go out riding. I wait the week, and bring it with me on saturday when hanging out with my friends. First thing I notice is that skateboarding and longboarding are COMPLETELY different. It was too new to me. I let my board sit there for about another month or so, only occasionally touching it, but mostly giving it the cold shoulder. Then my friend Joey (who has been skateboarding for a while) tells me to bring it with me to the party that upcoming weekend. Being that Joey is a really good friend, I quickly say yes and eagerly wait for the weekend.
The weekend arrives. Me and Joey go skateboarding in the local neighborhood. It's tough for me to get used to, but I get the hang of it. blah blah blah, over the course of the afternoon I learn how to skateboard and do some simple tricks.
Long story short, I learned how to Ollie that Saturday. Aren't I pro ^_^

missing blog posts? okay
Well, it appears as if I am missing four blog posts. Gosh Darn. Anyways, I guess I'll talk about my adventures in Azeroth, since nothing else is coming to my mind at the moment. I recently left my guild. They were becoming close friends, so why did I leave them? Here's the reason. I left that guild because after spring break, i renewed my subscription and logged on, and BOOM, I realized that none of the active members were logging on like they usually do. I was suspicious. So I decided to wait a week or so, just to see if they would log back on. To my dismay, none of them did log back on, and the raid schedule was never updated. I was sad. I was getting attached to this guild just like the last one. But being that it is only a game, I decided to join a new guild that was being formed out of other people from similar guilds that died over spring break. It seems like an interesting group of people, but they just don't have the same feel as my old guild. Oh well, I might just move to my friend's server soon anyway because the one I'm on is dying. These are difficult decisions considering I've been on this server for my entire stay in Azeroth.
