The Post Listing the Goals of the Blog

     So it's been a while since I've been here. Probably because I haven't been, but you know, whatever. But I realized that I should use this blog more often, though I believe I need to lay a few parameters, for the goals which I'm setting for myself, at least where this blog is concerned.

   1. I intend to use this to help better my writing abilities, which I will agree need improvement. I think I need to make my writing more free-form, as opposed to scripted banter. I mean, it's not that none of will be thought out beforehand, I just need to learn to relax, and let this thing write itself. Also, it would be beneficial of me to lessen my run-ons, and learn where to separate paragraphs. You know, things like that.
   2. I wish to use this as a method of expressing my opinion, instead of an update on my life sort of thing. That's what Facebook is for. I wrote that one movie review what is almost a year ago (the hell) and I really enjoyed that, so I want to do that more.
   3. I need to learn to update this thing more regularly, instead of just the few random times I think of it. I'm gonna do my best to post more often, and - if need be - just post shorter things, such as this list, just to get me into the habit.

     So there it is kids. A fine list of goals if I've ever seen one. Which I have, just now. I did write it, after all. Now one can only hope that I won't forget to adhere to these goals in the days to come. Here's to hoping. I'll let you know how it works out. Until then, I'm gonna go watch Highlander. Because after all, there can be only one, and he will be the very best, like no one ever was.

Monday, February 27, 2012

       Seven o'clock. And so the insomnia returns. Yay! Except not. But I have finished season one, and gotten about half way through season two of How I Met Your Mother. So that's been fun. But now my cynical, negative, angry side is poking through. People are stupid. They're impossible. They're conniving. They're self-serving. And I am their savior. Why? Because I like a challenge. And I'm stupid.....
       ANYWAY
       What do I want out of life? I just want to be happy. I want to fall in love, be happy.... I have the ambitions of a child. I don't want anything extravagant. I just want happiness. Pure, simple happiness. Not that hard. That worries some people. And yes, I can assume that means you. Don't worry. Why? Because I said so. DEAL WITH IT.
        My brain is so scattered right now. This exhaustion makes me mind drunk. Makes me impatient. Ok, not that impatient. Look at me, I'm blogging. I'm obviously not that impatient.
       I just spent the last month with a very lovely someone. That was nice. I enjoyed that. I played several video games to completion, watched a score of films, and even an entire anime series. Neon Genesis Evangelion, to be exact. TROLOLOLOLOL. You know, as in, I've been trolled. But hey, it was a good time, so I'm not complaining. I'm back into Final Fantasy VII though. That's been fun. I am mastering that game so well. So many mastered Materia and final Limit Breaks. I WILL CONQUER RUBY AND EMERALD WEAPON. I WILL.
       I play Magic a lot. Not that I'm complaining. But I feel like there needs to be more people that share my love for these things. I mean, don't get me wrong, there are those that like it, but I'm just fascinated, always thinking about new things, always wanting to play it. I have no life. I can memorize a large portion of cards in so many card games, so many video games, so much needless, yet pertinent data that no other force in the world could care about.....
       I feel like I shouldn't prioritize these things so much. But it's what I'm good at. I can't deny my nature. Speaking of which, I've become rather proficient at analyzing films and shows and what-have-you. I mean, I'm not the best, but I'm learning. It's rather nice, though also a little disappointing at times, since you can predict a few too many things, and thus take a lot of sparkle out of what would otherwise be potentially exciting. But hey, that's knowledge. A double-edged sword that works primarily in your favor, yet occasionally knicks you.
       I shouldn't construct these things so late - er, early. I've been working on this for about an hour. This is all I've got. Aren't I the best?
