About Me
I graduated high school in 2008 with a Core 40 Diploma while also graduating from Hoosier Hills Career Center with training in office applications and business management. I later enrolled in Ivy Tech where I studied PC Support and Administration. After finishing a few semesters I decided that it wasn't really what I wanted to do. I am now unemployed and have no idea what profession I will eventually end up in.

I've always had a passion for video games. The earliest memory I have was of me playing Kirby Super Star on the SNES. I couldn't figure out how to kill boss so my uncle decided to help me. I guess you could say gaming runs in my family, as that same uncle is into his late 30s and still enjoys the thrill of video games, and so do his three sons. That's not all, both of my little brothers AND my mother are also into video games quite intensely. We are one big, happy family of gamers.

Over the years I've owned just about every major video game console and even some odd ones. At the beginning I'd have to say that I was strictly Nintendo, but I've grown to accept the fact that other companies also have great products.

My favorite video game genres are RPG and FPS, but I usually play a little bit of everything.

Favorite video game series include: The Elder Scrolls, The Legend of Zelda (Wind Waker being my favorite), Call of Duty, Mario, Grand Theft Auto, Battlefield, Pokemon, and many others.

Other interests include: Computers, Graphic Design, Web Design, Video Editing, Photography, Journalism, Creative Writing, Reading, Music, Movies, Television, and Cheese.

I'll try to update this blog every so often. My life isn't that exciting so I don't usually have anything interesting to talk about.


Games I am currently playing:
- Minecraft
- Red Dead Redemption
- Fable III (I miss the original)
- Saints Row 2
- Borderlands and all of the add-ons
- Pokemon Black

Games I am looking forward to:
- TES V: Skyrim
- Saints Row The Third
- Modern Warfare 3
- Battlefield 3
- Pokemon Grey(?)

This is a serious issue as many games suffer from this. Take MAG for example. A while ago I was playing a match of sabotage with a bunch of moronic squad mates when one of them runs in front of me while I was shooting an opposing player. Naturally, he dies from an unfortunate headshot and then starts cursing at me calling me a team killer. Now I could have dealed with this, but a minute later he came up behind me and killed me. What the fuck does that prove? What was his logic behind this? It wasn't my fault the idiot ran in front of me while I was shooting. Apparently some people take this game way too seriously.

Another game that suffers from this is Modern Warfare 2. Have you ever noticed those guys that sit in one spot with their sensitivity all they way up and just unload randomly while spinning? Somehow I'm always the one to die from them. I mean, seriously?

I know there are many more games that have been ruined by morons, but these are the two games I play a bit and have actually noticed this in. It needs to stop.

(Also, Piggybacking ftw... Shh!)

Aw come on... if the morons stopped playing I wouldn't have anyone to yell and swear at!! :)

(oh, and I've seen a lot worse in MAG... payback for an accidental tk is kiddie stuff... usually done by teh kiddies - nah, when some pissed off platoon leader keeps calling in strafing runs on your squad, that's much more annoying! Apparently our squad leader had voted to kick him in an earlier game... and he was hell bent on vengence! Of course the idiot didn't realize that FF is only about 50% in the game, so most of us lived... it was just really annoying.)

Don't you love being called a team killer, and then getting team killed by the same guy?

It's almost like they don't know the meaning of the word irony.

I was a squad leader in a game of acquisition in MAG and my squad voted me out. I had assigned our spawn bunker for defense, which is what people usually do in this mode, and they didn't like that. I had one guy screaming at me that "This is my fucking squad!" If we aren't doing well, there's almost a guarantee that a vote to kick the squad leader will be started, even though they have very little power.

And there are people, quite a few, who team kill on purpose. Someone's PSN id actually said teamkillinggod, and he was doing what you'd expect. I harassed him until he left the game.

TK'ing suck, but I love have Friendly Fire. Why? Because the last 30 years of United States warfare has had more death via friendly fire than enemy combatants. If people want REAL Modern Warfare, that's it right there...

Unfortunately FPSs tend to attract that kind people. I usually try not to let them ruin my gameplay. I'm one of those people that, when griefed in a game, will just emote : ) and /pat and move on. I've been griefed too much in the real world to bother with videogame griefing/bullying.
