  2 Days Before My 8th-year Gamespot Anniversary!

  In 2 days, my membership to Gamespot will mark my 8th year! That's right, I joined May 26, 2005 eight years ago! Wow, in 8 years I have grown to love some of you and still keep in contact with some of you. Heck, i'd even call some of you my brothers! Hopefully one day I can finally met some of you. 

   

  A Recap

  In the last 3 years, my activity has been very low. But I always come back. It must be for you guys. I won't front though. I've started my projects and been through a hell of a time with some online employment, nothing I'd say went very far where I can move out on my own and have my own place and family. But I won't give up. Life isn't about quitting, its about experiencing. 

   

  A Snapshot in 2005.

  So in 2005, when I joined, I was 20 years old. I've been in college for two years already and didn't have a boyfriend. I lived in Brooklyn, New York with my mom in an apartment on the top floor - 17th floor that is. Neighborhood was OK, had some greenery to bare it all. A mini mall was across the street and another was 2 long blocks away. I couldn't complain. Transportation was decent as well - took the city bus down the block to get to any train because that area was a god-dang boonies almost.

  At the time, my dreams were to finish college with a bachelor's degree; have more gamer friends; get a good consistent job working at a computer tech or something along those levels; and perhaps get a boyfriend or husband; oh and to move out after I graduated. 

   

  Forward to 2013.

  I now live in a 2-family house in Queens, New York, and I am 28 years old. I got my Bachelor's degree in computer engineering technology in 2008 (but technically i ended school in late 2007). I still live with my mom but not just her, with an annoying landlord/owner of the house/aka her ex-boyfriend/lover or whatever. Neighborhood is better but minus the gunshots or firecrackers every now and then and loud music from Indians down the street whenever they get in the mood to be outside. No malls around here, transportation is better because my mom and the landlord drives a car, but mostly I take the bus to go anywhere. 

  What dreams came true? Well I did finish college only to prove it being a waste of time and money. I have more gamer friends but only online. A consistent job? Still dreaming it. Got a boyfriend? Hells yeah, and even better - fiancee. Though I don't know what the hell he sees in me. Moved out? On the Highest Priority list. 

  What are my dreams now?

  1. Finding more clients for my consulting services. I started some services right now to test the waters. 
  2. Affording my own home and car.
  3. Moving out 
  4. Getting married
  5. Not having children, lol.
  6. Being able to go to one freakin' E3 Expo event!

   

  And that was my screen-shot of the past and live view of my current life. And now for some SHAMELESS PROMOTIONS:

  I have yet another new blog called My Life is Like A Box Of... which is on Tumblr. If you are on tumblr, then check me out. This blog is like an all-purpose blog capturing my current likes in entertainment and keeping up to date with all my other blogs and websites I manage.

  No Comments Display?? + Darksiders 2

  I usually get comments on my blog but in the past couple of months it was saying "0 comments", so I really thought no one loved me anymore!

  

  But now I see I'm not the only one that has that problem on their blog. I see your blogs and it has "0 comments" on it too even though you have more than 1 comment. This is weird!!!

  In other news,

  I got Darksiders 2 on Tuesday but due to life I haven't had the time to sit down and play with it. Maybe today though, i'll get a chance. If you got the game, how do you like it?

  In more news,

  I'm looking for some good honest opinions on my short and sweet reviews called short burst reviews on my official entertainment blog. Currently I have done a couple of film reviews with this new feature but would like to do it for game reviews, books reviews, anime and other entertainment reviews. The recent film review is Anonymous, which I just saw a few days ago http://entertheqann.wordpress.com/2012/08/16/short-burst-reviews-anonymous/
  
  There is a poll that you can vote if you like my reviews or if you don't like it. you can also comment in the poll post if you want. Thanks! Link to poll on my blog http://entertheqann.wordpress.com/2012/08/16/poll-short-burst-reviews/
  
  You can look around my blog if you want to get a feel for my writing.
