Sorry those of you who read my blog... I Have been kind of slack in the blogging area. I have had a pretty busy weekend. I have yet to finish my SSBB review, but it is coming I promise! Last Friday night I attended my second SSBB tournament, it went alittle better this time, and I got a little further, but the same person that won last time won this time as well. I REALLY want to win my money back haha! Who knows, maybe next march will be my time! Then Friday at midnight (Saturday morning) I hung out with Jordan, we watched the show Community and Spartacus, and ate some cookout, and we SEEMED high because we laughed at everything, but that is just how we are when we're tired, WHICH IS AWESOME! No drugs necessary! Then we passed out at like 2:30 AM, and I slept till like 12:30, and he woke up before me and played some video game. Then we went and ate some more food for breakfast? lunch? I don't know. Then we chilled some more, and watched more Spartacus while we ate, then we chilled some more, and then we decided we wanted to jam, so we drove back into Asheville to get our instruments, and to pick up Hunter with his bass, and the wii and then drove to Gamestop and got presents for Intercalary (Bahai holiday) then we went back out to Swannanoa, we jammed for about an hour, then we smashed for a few hours, then we went to taco bell, then we came back and played some more smash for a few more hours, then Jordan had to go home, and Hunter and I went to go finish up shopping for Intercalary as Super Walmart (24/7 store). Then we went back to our moms in Asheville, and I got Hunter to wrap my presents for me (except for his) by agreeing not to chew gum around him (he DESPISES gum). Then we all passed out. Then we woke up (Evan was over too.) And we all had a big breakfast that my mom made for us for Intercalary, it consisted of delicious fluffy waffles, amazingly tasty bacon, and we got fruit and whipped cream to put on our waffles MMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!! Then we went on our scavenger hunt our mom made for us, where we took pictures of ourselves in various places downtown, then we went out to Jennifers house to pick up Jasper to take care of him. Then we went back home, and we all opened presents together, then we watched some funny youtube videos, I think I snoozed a bit, then we went out to eat at Harbor Inn, for a big Intercalary feast! Then we went to Earthfare and had delicious Chocolate Tort, MEGA MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!! Then we went back home and watched "The Karate Kid" on blu ray (my present to my mom, Evan hadn't seen it yet.) Then we watched a couple more funny youtube videos, and then Evan showed me some of Mass Effect 2 which looks like an amazing video game, it is a 3rd person rpg shooter, that resembles Star Wars=EPICLY AMAZING AWESOMENESS OF AWESOME! Then I went to sleep and got 5 hours of sleep before going to school. After school I ate a light lunch, walked 3 dogs to take them on a poop walk, and then I had my first "real" training session a.k.a, one I paid for. IT. WAS. SO. TIRING! It only took me 30 minutes, but I was exhausted after, my whole body was shaking, I had goosebumps everywhere, I was sweating of course, I felt lightheaded, my eyes kept wanting to close, I felt like I was going to throw up the whole drive back home, I was seriously considering getting someone to cover my shift at work that night, but instead I took a 1.5 hour nap, woke up and felt MUCH better. I went to work, then got home, and switched to my dads house, and here I am now! *sigh* Time for some Ukulele playing tomorrow, and I will get to start my book too that Hunter got for me! It is called "The Samurai's Wife."
That's all for now!

Tired today, sore tomorrow..
I just got finished with my 1 hour complimentary trainer session, and I must say.. Having a trainer is very nice. I had the option of either paying 39 a month and no 99 bucks towards 4 thirty minute sessions, or 29 a month WITH the 99 bucks towards 4 thirty minutes trainer sessions, and today they presented me with the latest deal of 99 for the trainer session, then 39 per month for ELITE membership where I can bring any guest with me whenever I want. So if any of you who read this want to come work out with me some time, or just help me workout, feel free to come with!!!!! Although I must say 5 bucks contribution would be nice, but no worries!!!
I thoroughly having that professional fit coach walking me through my workout, and so I feel like I can very much benefit from the 4 thirty minutes sessions to get me in a particular routine. It would be awesome to have a trainer the whole time, but that would run me into the thousands of dollars...... So no thank you. My friends came over today, and we played some Super Smash Bros. Brawl, we have to practice for an upcoming tournament this Friday. The first tournament they had was about a month ago, and it was such a success they decided to make it a monthly thing, which is super awesome. I feel like Ryan, and Sean (The two friends I played with today, they're brothers) will destroy me. I don't know though we'll just have to wait and see how things pan out!
And for anyone who may possibly read these posts and don't know what Super Smash Bros. Brawl is, have no fear! I shall make my first review of any video game I do on this game! Look forward to it in a few hours to a day or two.
That's all for now!

The Rush
Today I went to The Rush like I promised. It turned out my 30 day VIP pass was good, but instead of using that they instead just "cut me a good deal" apparently. Long story short, I have a 1 hour complimentary session with a trainer tomorrow. The membership is 39 bucks a month, unless I pay 99 bucks for 4 thirty minute training sessions, then the membership is only 29 bucks a month, unless I want the calorie king membership as well, THEN it would be 39 bucks a month. As it stands I have a 1 hour comp session, and my membership is 39 bucks a month, the other deal sounds more appealing though. If I got my brother and my mom to join too we could have a family deal where it would be 59 a month, which would make it 20 a month per person which is more doable for me, but I am not so sure how willing my mom and brother would be to do that. Ugh... Part of my feels like I fell into a salespersons ultimate scheme, giving them all my money. However, another part of me feels as though this could be good. Yeah I am a little intimidated by it all, and yes I am a little stressed out now, but this could be very beneficial for me in the long run. I don't take enough risks as it is, and I think this risk is a positive one. In order for me to meet my "goals," I'll only have to go 3 times a week, for 1 hour each time, which is very doable in my schedule. It is the diet thing that is going to be the tough part. They say that is the most important part too, oh boy.... Let's hope I can stick this out and be looking good in about 5 months!
So that is one more thing I can scratch off my to do list... Sort of, I need to stick to it of course. I didn't actually work out at The Rush today, but I did do some working out on my own, and later if I have time after my English paper, I shall brush up on the 2 songs I already know on the Ukulele. That's all for now!

Not much progress... Again.
I had school today, and then work tonight (The 21st), so I have not made much more progress on my to do list which makes me feel bad because after making that to do list, all I have done is cancel WoW, lessened my cussing, and blogged more. However, having kept up my blogging each day is something in itself I suppose. I also managed to squeeze in a lunch with some of my friends before going to work which counts as spending more time with my friends too. And tomorrow I plan on seeing if my 30-Day pass to The Rush is still good, and if so, working out for at least an hour before moving on to my homework. I am also going to try and get Hunter to pick me up and interesting book from the library while he's at work so I can start reading something. That's all for now!!

Time for a Change-To Do List
Okay so today I officially began my to do list of changes in my life, starting with cussing. I believe today I have not cussed but maybe once (excluding while I was driving, that, I need to work on.) Other than that I have no really had the time to do much else on my list, sorry if I let anyone down :-/
I think I will play some Ukulele though, and I DID write another blog post so HA! Three things right there. I just had a long day at work, and now I have to write my rough draft of an English paper which is due tomorrow, and considering the fact that my job provides my measly income, and my school provides me with what I am going to need to get a job in the future that creates way better than measly income, than I must remember not only my to do list, but to stay on top of my school work and work.
Sorry for the less than climactic second blog post since the Big Bang of my life changes, but ciest la vie... Don't worry there IS excitement to come!!

Time for a Change
I realize that it has been a VERY long time since I last made a blog post. I most certainly could go on and on, about the reasons behind why I have not posted, but I won't. Honestly, my time has been spent doing pretty meaningless things, World of Warcraft, other video games, watching shows on the internet, watching movies. I would have to say the most productive thing I've done these past few months aside from work and school, has been hanging out with friends. And even then I have spent a majority of that time with them playing video games, or watching movies. I haven't played the saxophone in half a year, I haven't written anything of my own in years aside from blog posts, I haven't read a book since Harry Potter 7 came out, I haven't worked out, I have done almost nothing. And well, I decided it was time for all that to change.
Starting now I am going to attempt...no... I WILL change my ways in order to gain more self respect for myself. No worries, my personality will remain primarily the same, I just hope to make more of my life than I am right now. Starting with this blog post.
For those of you that will actually read this, thank you it means a lot, for those of you that respond to this post, well that is just awesome, I appreciate it. I am laying my heart out on the line here for you! I am admitting to all my terrible laziness, and lack of motive!
Starting now I am going to cancel my World of Warcraft subscription, and you know what I am going to do with that $15 bucks a month? I am going to put it towards a gym, so instead of losing money to waste my life away, I will be losing money to gain much more self respect and confidence.
Starting now, I am going to learn more songs on the Ukulele.
Starting now, I am going to play my saxophone more.
Starting now, I am going to read books.
Starting now, I am going to stop cussing.
Starting now, I am going live life the best way I know how.
Starting now, I am not going to worry about what is after this life.
Starting now, I am only going to worry about this life, what is here and now.
Starting now, I am no longer going to feel bad for myself, there is no reason to, my life is great.
Starting now, I am going make more raps with my brother and friends.
Starting now, I am going to spend more time with my dogs, my family, my friends.
Starting now, I am going to start writing for the 'Henchmen' web series.
It's time for a change. It's time for me to start walking my own talk. It's time for me to live.
Okay so looking back at this list, that could just keep going I am not going to start NOW, literally. You know what I mean. It's 4:30 in the morning haha, I should sleep! But what this list does mean, is that it is time for a change, it is time for me to change.
Oh, and for those of you who were wondering, no. There is no WAY I'm giving up video games, movies, D&D, or any other of the nerdy, geeky (amazing) activities I do. I love those parts of my life too much to nix those. No, I am simply putting things into perspective, and my priorities straight, things must be enjoyed in moderation.
While I'm on the topic of change, in order to make video game playing more productive I will from here on out review every game I beat. I will write my own personal review on it HERE ON THIS BLOG, withOUT having read any other reviews about it! So that is one thing you can count on looking forward to in this blog. I will also keep everyone updated on the progress of my "Time for a change" to do list (above).
(P.S. That was a tad bit too long, I need to blog more too so that entries aren't so overbearingly long to the point of boredom)
Again I thank, those of you who read this, very much!
