New Year's Resolutions?

Since I never seem to be able to keep my New Year's resolutions (they tend to be the complete opposite of what I've planned to do), I have devised a simple method that hopefully address this issue! If not, at least I was able to keep my resolutions this year. =)

1) Gain 20 pounds
2) Not get a job
3) Don't graduate from school

Three main "resolutions" for this year!

Overall, 2012 has been a pretty standard year. It had its ups and downs. I had quite the number of accidents this year, but I managed to meet a bunch of new people as well! =)

Eitherway, Happy New Year! Hopefully 2013 will be awesome! =)

I used to like Winter Break more than Summer Break...

But I will have to change my mind on that matter. I used to like winter break more since I had a strong hatred for the intense sunlight at sunset during the summer. My workspace has a window that faces west, and I don't have any houses/buildings to block the incoming rays. My blinds don't do it justice either. =/

However, there isn't much I do during winter break since I can't really go out in the cold (scared of contracting frostbite again!) I've stayed home once again without doing anything exciting. I think I may get cabin fever at this rate....

Good thing tomorrow is Bro Night!

Now onto something mildly exciting. I've completed Rowling's novel today. Overall, it was a great read. Essentially, it seemed to be a tragic novel since a lot of things went horribly wrong at the end where a problem escalated to the death of two individuals. As an ironic twist though, a couple of the characters that started out miserable had a "decent" ending.

It was no Harry Potter in terms of fantasy, and I think it was a bit too pessimistic for my tastes. However, it was an intriguing story with good character development. 4/5 stars out of my self-made rating scale with nothing to compare it to!

Boxing Day 2012

I woke up too late (around 10 AM) to cash in on the deals today, but it's okay. I'm broke this month from spending too much money. =(

Once again, I began my day by reading Rowling's book. I have to say that it's getting more interesting as the story progresses, but it makes me lose hope for humanity. It's definitely a lot darker than the Harry Potter series. Everybody seems so selfish in the book!

After some LoL, I had some work to do. I couldn't finish all my work today, but I'll have time tomorrow to work on it! =)

Hmm... no picture today. Too lazy =P

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays

To those that celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas! To those that do not celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays!

It has been quite a relaxing Christmas Day. I spent the day reading and playing Zelda, with a touch of LoL on the side. I got to level 28 today! Two more levels to go!

Here's a piano-vocal live version of My Grown Up Christmas List, sung by Ailee!

May the rest of 2012 be merry for you. =)

Week Long Break

I took a break from blogging for a while since nothing really interesting happened to me over the past couple of days. I went out a bit and had loads of time to play LoL, but that was pretty much it. Oh, and I guess I survived the "end of days" apocalypse that the Mayan's have predicted, but it turned out that it was just an end of an era! Good thing I didn't spend like crazy or do something totally out of the blue =P.

As for Christmas Eve today, I spent the day playing Zelda on my brother's 3DS. It's the first time I've played Ocarina of Time. Due to the difficulty of finding the correct viewing position, I've been playing it in "2D" instead of 3D.

I've just completed the Fire dungeon, and now onto the water dungeon!

Weekend Break

May those souls rest in peace. Such an event is starting to become to common place. =(

My weekend so far, has been games games and more games. Nothing really exciting, so I won't bore you readers to death. Starting tomorrow though, I'll need to go out and get some exercising in. I'm starting to feel my waistband again...

Bison Striploin at Smuggler's Inn

For Bro Night tonight, we went to Smuggler's Inn to eat. I always enjoyed going to Smugglers since they have large portions and all you can eat salad and soup!

Talking about my main meal, I had the bison Striploin. I got it medium rare, but it was a tad bit chewy still. The cranberry sauce on top though was pretty delightful; a little bit of tart, but a bit of sweetness as well.

For $40ish dollars after tips and taxes, I was quite satisfied. I made sure to eat a lot of salad, soup and bread to try and make up the price of my bison Striploin =P
