It's been a while since I wrote anything here so figured I oughta do that. Things could be better. Mums been in and out of hospital pretty much since the start of the year, which isn't fun. Still more then a bit miserble over losing my girlfriend, the sucky part knowing that she still loves me and all that, but doesn't care for the long distance thing anymore and doesn't seem to care to help me fix that by bringing her here, despite the fact she said if we could raise the money she'd be here in a heartbeat. Just doesn't care to help.

Which I guess might be a blessing in disguise, as my Ma's upped my rent - gone from paying $100 a fortnight to $200. Which leaves me with $100 to just toy around with as I do. I'm a tad disapointed, but things have been tight money wise and I guess a roof over my head, food in my belly and a nice, fast connection for my computer is more important.

As for my gaming..

I bought Pokemon: Diamond around a week ago and have been playing pretty much every chance I get. It's been fun. Just need to get another DS so I can play with my bro, who bought Pearl recently. We did have another DS but it seems to have disapeared during the move to our new place, which isn't good.

Internet connections been alright. There was a period in which it'd only run at it's proper speed between 12:40am and 11:30am, which was odd and rather annoying as I'd seldom feel like staying up that late but it's been working properly now. Not the most reliable thing in the world.

Also been assigned an, I guess, social worker. Been seeing one on and off for a little while, but they found me a more permanate one. Shes basically meant to get me out of the house for a couple hours a week and get me doing things I'd generally avoid. Like going out of the house for a couple hours a week. Heh. Nah.. But it's been okay.

Mostly involved walking around randomly. Went to an art gallery. Saw some touristy attractions. Had lunch at the pub. Played 8ball. Helped cook dinner for the family. Hasn't been so bad, I guess.

Anyway, gonna head off. Hopefully won't be so long between entries next time, heh.
