Yet Another One

About a year ago (those last few days don't really matter) I started up this Journal. At first it was lacking focus, but as I used the community more and more my Journal became also more and more focused. First it contained a lot of gaming stuff, but later on I also began to use it for my personal ramblings. To my surprise a lot of people seemed to like it.

A few of those people have become my 'Journal buddies'. I read their entries, and they read some of mine. It's a good way to exchange thoughts, and a good way to get some advice on certain things. Heck, I know zero of you people very well, it's good to put some of my problems on your plate and have you give me some advice. In a lot of ways it has helped me out on a lot of things.

Updating my Journal has become a part of my daily routine. I think that's a good thing, looking back at some of my past entries I can see the personal development I've been going through over the past year. I'm looking forward to recording some more of those developments in the future.

Thanks for reading. Just know that I'm reading your ramblings as well, and I'm liking it.

Shift Priorities

Man, how much I want the Xbox 360. But first things first, since Pauline asked me to move in with her I know that I cannot get the machine. Well, I could still get it, but it is kind of harsh on her to be spending my money on entertainment while we need some more important stuff to get the household going. The money I've been saving up for a new console is now going towards all sorts of equipment we're needing instead of that new machine.

And it does not bother me all that much. My desire to have that console has not lessened, my desire to move out is merely overshadowing it (in a positive way) and I'm putting all my financial resources into making it happen.

By the way, we got a washing machine. Pauline's mom found one at a local second-hand market for only 60 Euros. It looked mighty fine so we decided to take the bet and pick it up. No clue if it works, we have to set it up first to make sure. If it doesn't, well, that doesn't really matter. Sixty Euros is a bargain anyways. If it does work, we have one of the more important things were needing.

Speaking of which, we still need something to cook on. I think I'll suggest looking for that thing next. I'd like to have my stuff sorted out before we move in there, as we might get ourselves a nice little place any day now.
