One month!

 My girlfriend and I have been dating for a month! Our one month anniversary was yesterday (11/13/24) however, I remembered that I have a blog so I figured it would be cool to let people know how things are going! I am very happy with her and she’s a great person. I am working on a blog to talk about some albums as that is what I plan to make most of my blog posts about however I just figured this would be something cool to post about! Have a great November guys!!!

GameStop employees are NPCs

 Last night I went to GameStop, I went in just looking for retro games, I noticed that they were selling game informer magazines and I decided I would ask some questions about them, I was having a good conversation with him about the magazines and I had thought I was talking to a real person. I was wrong however, what had actually happened was he was pretending to be interested in what I had to say so that he could try to sell me black ops 6, this really bothered me as I work in retail and if a customer was talking to me about something that interested them I would try to continue the conversation instead of just trying to sell something. This is just annoying to me.

Welp… shit hit the fan

 I wanted to refrain from making a blog post about this but I decided I would make one since I don’t want people to be confused if they ever read my blog. I broke up with my girlfriend, I am not going to get into detail as I don’t feel the need to and don’t feel it would be appropriate. I have been going through a lot since this and I honestly owe getting through this as well as I have to my friends, as well as the amazing woman I have been talking to, I met her online and I feel like I have instantly connected with her, she is really cool. I do plan to show her this blog. In the future I am going to focus less on my personal life and more on just general topics however I felt like I needed to make a blog post just saying how I am doing, in general I am doing well but I do sometimes struggle.

My Relationship

 This week has been going great! Last week was awesome too! I took my girlfriend to Canobie Lake Park for Screeemfest, it was a lot of fun and we are already planning to go for the last Friday it is open! Life has been really good, I could not be happier. I also want to plan to change my blog so it is less about my personal life and more about my views on particular things, sort of like videos on youtube but in text form, I plan to try something like that soon, I also want to stop doing weekly blogs as I feel like its a chore and I prefer to keep it as a hobby thing so the frequency of the blogs will be a little spotty.

It worked...

 She said yes guys... I disappeared for a bit mainly due to going on mini dates with her, but yes, she is now my girlfriend. I know this blog is going to be short but once I have more substance I will write more.

Happiness… (BONUS BLOG!)

 So far Monday has gone so good that I have chosen to add a rant blog.

I have really been enjoying being off of the mainstream internet, it feels freeing to be part of smaller communities and actually meet interesting people rather than seeing racism, sexism, and other awful shit that makes me want to gauge my eyes out with a stick. Recently, I have started thinking again about getting a pager, my parents refuse to get me a flip phone and demand that I get a smart phone because of gps and other stuff, but still, I want to be free, sort of in the way that I am free now by not being on the mainstream internet anymore, it is really refreshing. Finding pagers is difficult though, I am not sure where to begin, especially since they are not like phones where you can select a plan and pay $xx every month. If I got a pager I would probably achieve the same if not a greater amount of freedom than I would with just a dumb phone, I mainly am interested in pagers as a smart phone can be a really good tool, going to concerts, the movies, etc. especially when you are my age and you go out with friends or on dates, you have to have a phone capable of loading email etc. to show the QR code to the attendant or to be able to reliably call 911 if it is absolutely necessary, I think a pager is good for daily life though, especially at work or at school, I feel like at school when I do put my phone in one of the pouches that the teachers want us to put it in, I feel happier, the time honestly goes by a lot faster when I am forced to talk to the people around me, English class is my favorite example, if I was able to use my phone I would absolutely hate the class as I wouldn’t have talked to the people I talk to in English now, I actually really enjoy the class because I put my phone in a pouch, granted I get five bonus points for doing it which is honestly carrying my grade right now but it is still beneficial to me mentally. I understand some people think pagers are stupid but I really think they are cool, the idea that I don’t have to bring a thousand dollar phone with me everywhere I go sounds great! Especially not having to worry about it breaking or getting wet, pagers are so cheap that if they break it isn’t a big deal. I view the pager the way I view my Casio Gshock watch, it is simple, long lasting, and makes my life a lot easier, I have an Apple Watch that my parents got me for Christmas and while that is a great watch and it was crucial in helping me lose weight when I first started, now that I have my life mostly together, it’s just a distraction, it vibrates and shows stuff on the screen constantly, it has to be charged EVERY NIGHT, I mean Jesus, call me weird but I like wearing my watch to bed, especially since I charge my phone at my desk, which it would absolutely suck having to get up and wake my dog to check the time just to see I woke up three hours before my alarm is supposed to go off. I have actually gotten much better sleep since not charging my phone next to my bed, it also forces me out of my bed to go and shut the alarm off which before, I would turn it off and go back to sleep just to be late for school. Overall, I would say that combining dumb tech and smart tech is honestly the best way to live, especially since smart tech has its benefits, but dumb tech does too, I accidentally ran over my watch and it didn’t even leave a single scratch whereas if I did that to my Apple Watch it would have been completely destroyed. I know this has been a long rant for just a bonus blog but this new lifestyle I have sort of taken in has amazing benefits that honestly have made me so happy, I will try to post a slightly shorter blog this Sunday after I go apple picking with my crush and to a convention with my friend.

See ya

Love...

 Week of September 15-22.

Mainly chose the title because it was funny and I'm bored, but yes, this is about love. I have been interested in this girl I go to school with, she is really smart and really cool, I just hope that when I do ask her out she says yes, we talk a lot and actually do stuff together. Of course, I could be head over heels and might jump the gun on this but I am choosing to wait for about a month and I will probably ask her out closer to halloween.

I am also debating buying a pager, the older I get the more I realize I just don't want to bring my phone everywhere and honestly, nobody ever calls me anyway so it's not like I am actually missing out on anything, will update on this point when I get more info.

I also applied to make videos on WeVidi!! I am seriously hoping they let me as I really want to leave YouTube and just make more hobby based videos on my channel.

Lastly, I found a new MySpace clone, it's called myspace.f46n.org, I will respond to comments and dms there, I really like the site! I will also still use Spacehey too!

See you guys next Sunday.
