So I kinda went AWOL for a while here. Long story short I've been having some trouble managing my life. However, this topic is not about ranting about how sucky I feel, quite the contrary, I have actually managed to find a solution to my own difficulties.

Anyway, here's the lowdown: One of my worries was how out of shape I've been getting. The solution? Hitting the gym, the ol' classic. I'm going to get a gym membership for the winter in order to give myself something more to do between work and school. I don't expect a miracle where I'm bulging with muscles and can give Kenshiro a run for his money, but just to be able to take care of my body better, hell why not. After all I managed to stop drinking so much soda, I can make the further commitment!

Second powerpoint: I just got my grandma's inheritance of five grand. I kinda had some clue what I wanted to do with a part of it (Over half is in savings, though, cause wasting even half of it right away is dumb), but now I'm just going to go full out and get myself a really nice laptop, and when I get it I'm going to start a project of writing every week (TOTALLY NOT INSPIRED BY SD NOPE NOPE). As some people may know I had this crazy dream that I swear would make a neat story, so that's going to be the first thing I wrote.

So yeah. It's not the largest change to my life but just by making these new commitments I'm already feeling much better about myself, so no need to worry about ol' Loot, just something he had to change himself and is totally rockin' like never before. :headbang: Loot out, yo.

Good on you, man! Undertaking positive change is a great step.
Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I'm so glad you are able to help yourself!!! But just to be a faerie... whilst you're hitting the gym, I'll do some workouts on the resistance stations at our local park in support for you... ;)

*leaves you this grinnie* :D

Happiest faerie of VGF.

Glad things are looking up, hombre, will be thrilled to hear of your writing. If you try the gym and don't like it, don't force it. Just go hiking or something else entertaining as often as possible, take walks down to a nearby shop for a drink, etc.
