I feel like it doesn’t make sense to ask you all to read something about my life without knowing a little bit about it. To ask me it is rather unspectacular, an ode to mediocrity in the suburbs. In the simplest fashion I grew up in the suburbs. I went to school, I graduated. I went to college, I graduated. I got a job, and I work. While having its fleeting moments of glory, triumph, defeat and depression, life has been very standard. Sure I did things most people have. I’ve had my heart broken in relationships, had hard times with my parents, and was a B or C student in schools due to lack of trying/caring. In hindsight that was not near as cool as it seemed at the time. All in all I have very little to complain about in life, or at least I feel that way. I think it is this reason that complaining feels selfish. I would almost rather not do it. I may complain about relationships with other people openly, but it takes a little more for me to complain merely about my station in life, because I feel as if I have had every opportunity, and where I am is a result of my actions, therefore there is nothing to feel sorry about without realizing that it’s all my own damn fault.
I suppose a little more about my hobbies, tastes and quirks might do more to help you understand this blog and who is writing it more than some diatribe about life in the suburbs lacking exceptionality. As a general rule I am drawn to the different and unusual. My tastes in music are very eclectic, so expect music reviews bridging from classical to classic rock, Mozart to Megadeath. You will not see reviews about hip-hop, country, and typically rap. I play video games, probably more than I should. I play all kinds of games, but shy away from action titles. I was never really any good at shooters, and dying repeatedly tends to hinder your enjoyment of the title. That does not mean I will never talk about them, but as a general rule I will be less excited about the latest Tom Clancy game than the average guy. I do have a tendency to play strange and niche titles, as my taste for the weird still applies. Titles such as Viva Pinata, Katamari Damacy and the latest Pokemon offering are not unknown to me. I have a sweet spot for sci-fi however, and anything I can get my hands on in this genre, expect to hear about(Assuming I have time to play it).
I like sports. It isn’t worth trying to maintain secrecy about living in
I can be rather opinionated so expect to hear a lot of what I have to say. I would like to think that usually they have some basis in reality, but I can not be held accountable completely for that. But who gives a damn, this is my blog. It’s here for me to have some sort of way to document my thoughts and feelings. I’ll try to maintain some offering of interest to the casual browser, but at its core this is me lightening the burden on my mind. In lieu of something of actual content, you may occasionally end up only with my thoughts.
I’ll tack more on to this as it comes to me, but that’s it for now. There’s time to get back to work. There’s more to me than just this I swear, but I’m sure it will pop up when relevant.
