Right now I'm just kinda laying on the couch half trying to sleep & half trying to lurk on the web. I got nothing better to do but writing a little bit. Feel free to stick around in this half assed attempt of a blog.

I'm not currently playing SC these days. I got enough of it. I don't care jackshit about 1v1 and team games are hopeless cause I can't get any opponents same level as me and the que times are too long. Instead i'm just taking it casually playing other games like WoW & MW2.

While playing other games & just taking a break from competitive stuff I got much on my mind these days. This year will probably be my most important year yet. My contract at work runs out in August and I need to start searching for a new job soon. I have next to no idea what to go for. I want to work with windows servers & possibly Linux servers too (I work in IT) So there's that. However, there's next to no guarantee I'll even get a job like that. So idk I almost just gotta dig into what's available and apply at what I can.

Turning 20 next month also got me thinking about career options I need to think about. I still can't apply for Universities cause I'm missing quite a bit of mandatory stuff. Idk how to explain this school stuff in english perfectly but thing is I need to take many different classes to be able to apply for Universities as I took a different route in High School meaning i skipped many other classes to specialize in IT and get certified for IT jobs quicker than i would taking the uni route. I wouldn't have my current job if it wasn't for that. Anyhow I'm still a long road away from applying for uni's so my next IT job is really really important lol.

I could probably keep rambling but idgaf tbh I just want the day to end and sleep T.T

If you got this far thanks for reading anyhow.

If you mean modern warfare 2 I actually booted that up on my ps3 recently. Way too many cheaters but the lobbies without any cheaters are great, I'm no where near as good as I used to be but everyone else got worse so it's enough to get fun nukes.

Is it worth it to go to uni? If you are already technically proficient, continuing in more focused programs to gain certain valuable skillsets may be more cost efficient than getting an undergraduate degree.

I know you're still young and this is a gaming site, but think about where your priorities are and try to plan accordingly; August is half a year away, but that's not that long, and you don't want to be caught exposed after that.

Don't get discouraged or overwhelmed, if you're writing this blog and not having fun with games anyway, it's probably bothering you in the back of your mind. Don't run, take it head on. You can do it.

Yeah on what Descent said, you have an IT job right now, you have experience in IT field. Unless you want to study something completely different at UNI aren't you in the best place right now for what you want to do?

GL though, keep on grinding

- join the military for a while to reset your mind

other one

don't even think of joining the military!

There is this story, about this extremely bored guy. He walks along the beach and finds a bag of stones. He starts skipping the stones into the calm sea. After half of the stones are gone, he takes another look at the stones in the bag. As it turns out he threw with daimonds.
Not all of us are lucky enough to realize what we have before our bag is empty.

I retold that story badly, sorry, have a nice day.

Im not sure if you know, but in SC, you can actually play arcade games. These are custom maps with different types of gameplay ranging from RPG style to soccer like matches such as

and some of them can be pretty fun. It's less stressful than 1v1 or team games.
