This week in review
So, another week older.
This week has been sort of random. For the first half of the week I was doing well with my new life. I had worked out each morning and was limiting my computer use and junk food intake. The last few days however, I have been consuming huge amounts of junk food and playing computer until 10 or 11 each night.
I think it is something to do with my environment. It is like the deck is stacked against me when ever I try to change my life style. My dad keeps suggesting fast food for lunch and dinner and so I say 'yea sure.' Then for the rest of the day I feel like I have already given up and might as well go for it and get 'back on the wagon' tomorrow. Maybe if I could change my was so that one bad choice in a day doesn't ruin the whole day.
People on Counter Strike are also starting to piss me off. This one clan asked to use me as a ringer for their upcoming scrim. I said sure why not, and they added me to Friends. Thats when it all went down hill. Turns out that they are all noobs and started accusing the other guys of hacking and several left mid game. I said I had had enough and left after the scrim ended but they keep messaging me asking me to scrim with them again.
Some weird stuff has been happening at home too. The light switch in my bathroom broke. The little plastic lever part just snapped somewhere inside the switch and so now I can't turn off my bathroom light. I have a replacement switch now but I don't know how to install it so I need to wait for my dad to give me a hand. I guess I could try it on my own but I don't like the thought of electrocution.
I started watching that Flight of the Conchords DVD my brother got me for Christmas. Very funny show but not as funny as I thought it would be from the clips I saw on YouTube. I also watched a movie called Sunshine tonight. It is a bit slow to start and doesn't really make much sense near the end but it is still good. It showcases some cool concepts for the future like Hydroponics, computer AI and vibro-scalpels for surgery.
I finished reading Knife of Dreams, the 11th(I think) book in the Wheel of Time series. You can tell it is getting close to the end of the series and I was happy to see the resolution of a few things that were started in the last few books. Actually now that I think about it it wrapped up a lot of story arcs. It really felt like it could have been the last book, like the author new there would be a long wait before the next book.
I haven't worked on my computer game at all this week. I thought I had found some other company that had already made the same game but it looks like they are focusing on a totally different aspect of the whole monster angle. I hope to get back to work on it on Monday.
