Still no job prospects minimum wage or otherwise. So I've been indulging in favorite reinvigorated past times (gaming mostly) as well as new social media outlets.

First allow me to plug my Twitter page: Follow me on Twitter.
Its whats going on in my life and my views on gaming, art, and general inquiries. Much easier to maintain than a full out self-revolving blog.

Art wise I'm still bouncing around on projects, picking up a few freelance things here and there but having life kick the motivation, to complete those projects, out of me. I'm grateful to have picked up those projects as it has introduced me to expanding my horizons style-wise (e.g my first foray into drawing anime/chibi as my former art style was much too realistic for the intended project). Deadlines for work that takes the backburner in life, which are side projects for those whom I do it, are not as high priority as I would like. Yet I still plug away at it.

As a gamer I've...:

• ...reacquainted myself with the X360 while alienating the PC, what a reversal.


• ...picked up Fable 2 among others (Too Human, Burnout: Revenge, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix). Thoroughly enjoyed Fable 2 and viewed the ending as not much a let down but more a opening for a sequel. Too Human, though lacking smooth cinematic animations, was a great play especially for one who enjoys collecting an abundant pile of weapons and armor. Borrowed Gears of War 2 from a friend as well and enjoyed the story immensely (at least they attempted to integrate a romance into an action game).


• ...now begun sitting on my hands waiting for FEAR2, Onechanbara, X-Blades, Street Fighter IV, and Star Ocean: The Last Hope.

In general life, the fam is in the processes of moving to warmer climes. Namely the city of Mira Loma, Riverside County, CA. Still have several months out from this, if the housing market jumps back up and we sell quickly. Being away from friends I've gathered over the years will bring me the most pain (online gaming with them will be a poor substitute to LAN parties), also not seeing the snow for years will drive me crazy.

So hopefully this year will be better than the last. Maybe this year prosperity will come back in full force to this crippled country. Maybe its best that it doesn't perhaps... what am I saying?! Of course I want that prosperity back, just that thought alone makes me think of the unAmerican douche that is Stephen Fowler. Ha, like how I got that jab in? Anyhow, I hope to dust off the scanner and actually post things (still extremely gun shy).
