Where to start....

Ok, so it's been a while since I posted in here. I don't know what to say really. Well, I'll just start from June, which was my "Month of Joy".

In June, I went to Chicago for my 22nd birthday, and a video game tournament called MWC (Mid West Championships). Overall, I had fun, met new people and old familiar faces. I didn't do well in tournament play as usual, but I gave it my best.
I got a new phone which ended up getting damaged, so I got it replaced not even a month having the phone.

In July, I got attracted to a little site called eBay. Needless to say, I spent a lot of money in a short amount of time. I'm happy though, cause I got what I wanted.
More importantly than eBay and video game nostalgia, my brother came home for a two-week vacation from Iraq. It was grerat having him around again, but the time went by so fast. It's funny, cause I wasn't at work at all his last week here at home because I had sprained my wrist and took time off to let it heal. So I got time off from my stressful job, AND got to spend time with my brother before he went back overseas.

In August, Ohio had two newcomers on the fighting game scene. I introduced them to my little group, and we played video games. It was fun, but I don't think I'll be doing it again. I burned a quarter tank of gas picking them up and dropping them off, in as little as four hours. Those were all city miles BTW.

Currently, I'm worried about school...not really the money, but my ability to pass classes. I only have three more math courses before I can transfer to OSU and start my major. The only problem is that I just can't seem to grasp the concepts in class. I have notes, examples in the book, and very lengthy homework. Usually, I can do half of the assignments and get it, but for whatever reason I can't pass the quizzes and tests because I can't remember enough of the material. I guess I need to get a tutor and hit them books REALLY hard.

And as funny as this sounds, I've sworn off women. And to stop any incoming jokes, NO I'M NOT GAY. I need to focus on finances and school. Besides, I'm tired of having my little ol' heart broken time and time again.

In a nutshell, life could be better, but it could always be worse. Isn't that the same for everybody though?
