A post? Surely not! (2)

Well, despite the best intentions, it’s been a while since I last updated this thing. :/

So, what’s been happening? Let’s see:

  • I have completely restocked my game collection!
  • I’m the proud owner of a shiny new iPhone.
  • I am about to enroll in a creative writing course (and when I see “about to”, I mean literally as soon as I’ve finished with this entry!)
  • I’m still enjoying my job.
  • I haven’t killed myself (or my car) on this ice yet!

I have big plans for 2010, like seeing at least two Avenged Sevenfold shows. And possibly marrying Synyster Gates. And having his children. < /stalker>

Merry Christmas!

I had a really good day at work today. Actually, I can’t really complain – most days are good! Though today was probably made better by the fact that I now have two days off! And I just got paid (it’s passed midnight). Of course, in true Sarah-style, I’ve already bought something from Ebay. What?

No, I’m not wasting money – I’m restocking my game collection (!), which took a hit when I moved back from the US. And when I say took a hit, I mean disappeared completely! It’s quite depressing having to start from scratch again, though I think I’m doing pretty well! I’ve got almost all the games that I really have to own now, except Silent Hill Origins, the first Shadow Hearts game and Final Fantasy IX.

Okay, enough rambling; I need to go to bed. Of course, I feel wide awake now. . .

Random crap and a shopping list! (0)

No work for two days! This is made all the more cool because, a) I have absolutely no plans, and b) I get paid on Friday (which I also have off). How awesome is that??

If you read my previous entry, you’ll know that I’m trying to re-establish myself, here in the UK. I’m doing pretty well; I have replaced almost half of my game collection and bought a new PS2. And after Friday, I should be able to start buying the parts I need to build my new computer. I’m really quite pleased with how quickly things seem to be coming together.

Of course, there are one or two other things I need to make my life complete:

  • Playstation 3
  • Macbook
  • PSP
  • iPod Touch

Meh. All in good time!

Well! It’s about time I posted something here, though, to be fair, I’ve got some fairly good excuses for not doing it sooner. The main one being that I’ve moved back the the UK. :O

It’s something that I’d been considering for quite a while. I say considering, agonizing would probably be closer to the mark. I really enjoyed my time in the States and I don’t regret one bit of it, but in the end it came down to the fact that I missed my family too much and, yes, I missed England as a country – cool, wet Summers included! My only regrets are some of the people I left behind. They know who they are and I miss them dearly. I just hope they’ll come to understand, in time, why I made the decision to leave.

Really though, I’ve fallen on my feet. I’ve got a great job working for Sky – it’s great fun and I’ve met some really awesome people. I’m spending loads of much missed time with my family (and planning with my sister how we’re going to follow A7X around on tour and seduce Syn Gates (me) and M. Shadows (her) and get them to marry us, thus thrusting us into the jet set lifestyle that we obviously both deserve!). Ahem.

All in all, things really couldn’t be better. I’ve just bought myself some hosting (thanks, Dreamhost!) and I’m planning to spend more time on my websites. That and building myself a monster of a computer to tackle the design aspect of my online life – I don’t think my laptop can take much more so it’s going to go into early retirement and finish it’s days with the less arduous task of browsing the occasional webpage. Bless it!
