I'm not really active on here, but I used to use this blog to actually blog more than say a diary or my actual blog so

words

also i'm trying to type like a normal person again its really difficult

A while ago I was on a site called Swagbucks. Swagbucks awarded money for watching advertisements, filling out surveies, etc. And yeah, it worked, and yeah it used to be in my signature. It was a fund for my 3DS.

... It didn't work out that way.

I started hitting the monthly limit if profit regularly. I made about $200+ dollars from it. I figured since I was making so much free money, I didn't have to save for my 3DS right away since none of the games I want are out for it yet. Not a bad plan, right? I did spend the money however. I bought a lot of animu stuff, mostly.

5 CDS. Brand New, DJ Shadow, Wintersleep. (I don't care too much for these groups. I had a long list of CDs I wanted and I started with the cheapest ones, though none of these artists are bad) MOTHER+LOVE 1 & MOTHER+LOVE 2. Famous, hard-to-come-by (lol) MOTHER fanmix CDs. These are the most famous. Got them from Japan from a very angry postman. Aaaaand Nujabes CD (I LOVE THIS MORE THAN ANYTHING IT IS PERFECT AND SAMURAI CHAMPLOO AND LIMITED EDITION VALUE OF $70 SNAGGED FOR $20).
Mangos & Animus. MPD Psycho 1 & 2. Eyesheild 21. Entire Yu Yu Hakusho series + OVAs & movie.The Book of Lies series (favorite. book. ever. it inspired mother 3. see all of those papers in it? tabs of scenes that triggered a strong emotional or physical response from me i reread this book CONSTANTLY). Pokemon cards are my crack.

So yeah. I bought a lot. No regrets. But, I got banned. You see, the way I was making up all that cash probably wasn't the most honest way... however, it made it fast and the companies that sponsered SB, and SB itself, where not losing anything from it. At the time, I made sure there were no written rules against what I was doing. At some point they added the rule (just for me!) and I got banned. Ain't even mad tho. I got all of that crap out of it for FREE. While it lasted, anyways.

Also, since I'm blogging let me just say that things have really been going well! I have my BEAUTIFUL car now. I signed up for my own bank accounts and I'm working two jobs to keep them filled for my vidya/animu addiction. I still don't have my own 3DS haha, but there is a savings account just for that that gets fed every so often. I was taking dance classes previously but they really ate away at my wallet... I want to do them again, for sure, but I hated being poor all year long.

I'm heading off to college at the end of next year. I know they college I want to get into and have been keeping in touch with it... feels like I'm already there, tbh. I'm taking community college courses to keep me busy during the summer until my AP work comes in (and more work-work comes with the season...). And DnD with a growing groups of friends really helps me get through the harder weeks.

As far as vdiya goes... I'm just playing loads and loads and LOADS or Pop'n Music. Half of the systems I own right now are not mine, including the PS2 I use for pop'n. I have Persona 3: FES too but i just can't get into the Persona games at all. I'd rather do the pain-in-the-butt Swap Magic gizmo for pop'n than put in P3. The game bores me to death i don't understand why its so popular.

little known fact: if i play pop'n all day until night i turn into a cat who plays pop'n and sparkles

that's about it. imma bounce now bros
stay in school
eat yo veggies
peace out \m/

i was in love with the persona games a while back (especially P4 since everyone is good-looking). shame you didn't like them tho. i'm actually kinda freaking right now since i can't get into any games recently. no matter how many times i play skyward sword or ghost trick, i don't feel like i'm having fun. what's wrong with meeee ;o; <i need kh3ds or laytonvspw nao.>

lovely to see that you're becoming some kind of adult. watch out tho. i'm pretty sure that at our age we can actually end up in jail for molesting people now.

 

and yu yu hakusho is love.

Yoweeh
Yoweeh

 @menosdemon thats because skyward sword was a load of crap. im tried of hearing that it was better than oot. it was just the hype. its not a good game. i liked ghost trick though. and ugh kh3ds no put it away. YES LAYTON ATTORNEY THObut im having the same problem. i got akihiko on my team in p3 though, and im enjoying it a lot more. not much time to play, however...

 

i still have one more year! and most people are aging too, so i'm not sure who you're referring too. :o

 

agreed. woman, where are you at? we need to keep in touch

Oh awesome, I use swagbucks too and do pretty well I think. I use the UK site though so not sure how much different the US site would be. How did you make so much money from it? :P

I tried signing up for that thing, but the cash takes to long to flow in. I can just work an hour and make more. :(

I envy your Mother+Love CDs. And if FES bores you to death, then play Persona 3 on the PSP. There's an option to play as a girl, and her social links are far better written. Either that, or Shin Megami Tensei just isn't your thing.

you're alive? huh.

 

i never trusted those free money sites much, but glad it worked out while it did. props for baten kaitos.

 

your car looks as good as my family's car... why are car prices so expensive here? D: (and no, i still don't have my own car, but i do have a license and i borrow my mom's car whenever i need it. beats taking a bus ride and getting mugged).

 

going to college? to study what?
