My life: Video Games Part 1

Well hello Blog,

It time to reveal one of my passions in life in more detail, and that is Video Games.

Almost like my own expect I had a blue Controller.
Now where did it all began? It began from a family trip to Florida. We were going to see Disney World in Orlando, and also visit my Aunt (Mother-side) and Uncle. We stayed in there house, and at their television sat a Nintendo 64. At first it I didn't know what it was, and my uncle explained it was. So he set it up and let me play on a game called Mario Kart 64.

This was the colour of my Gameboy Pocket.
Within minutes of playing it, my life was changed. Like all gamers, I couldn't get enough of playing that console. If I recall properly, my aunt saw me, wanting that game, so what she did before me and my family flew back, she bought me a Gameboy Pocket in Green, plus a game (That I don't remember unfortuately. And that was my first video console that I ever owned.

Around the time of my 8th Birthday, I asked for my own N64 with the game that I know that wanted: Mario Kart 64. He he! Like all parents, they had no clue where to get it. (*sighs* Typical Parents)
Ah now I remember...sort of. It was, when we were in a department store called Allders (If folks from London can remember that store) anyway, we were on the TV and Video section of the Store and I saw the N64 and I asked for it, and like all parents say to 8 year old children, 'On your Birthday'. So they managed to get it and that's how I started my Video Game life.

'The Game' (My first love)

Christmas Time

Hello again, a belayed Happy New Year 2011

it's been a few weeks since the Christmas season.

Christmas comes and goes once again..... *sighs* It seems that I wasn't in a festive mood this year, no family around as usual. Presents are just meagre ones. (Not that I don't appreciate it), the food this year as well, doesn't lift my spirits...

I've been searching in my head over the reason why I don't feel in the mood for this Christmas. I usually feel festive every year....but this year *Aeroplane crashing noise* It hasn't come to me.

So what came in to mind, in terms of the cause of my downbeat mood over this Christmas and the new year. It could be possible that it's the end of my Xmas job? Maybe because I had a fight with my friends very recently? or maybe I just want feeling up for Christmas?

I suppose that it wasn't an exciting time this year, because usually I'm all happy and energetic during Christmas.

Probably it was the presents, I mean I asked for a new shirt and I got one, plus some money. I suppose I was so used to surprises over the past years, but now since I am an adult for like a year. I have to do things myself....*sighs* Life is harsh isn't it?
