Something involving video production, ideally editing. I've always been interested and dabbled before but never went into it in too much detail. You know I've been desperate for a career change for years but nothing really appealed enough to kick me into action. Just came to me a few months ago, I've done a bit of reading in what is available in terms of work and study, my plan right now is: - Get badass PC (done). - Start making short films and edits in my spare time (begins today!) - Enrol in a night class (enrolled for August already). - If I take to it and I'm this motivated by the end of the year, I'll apply for the full-time 2 year TV production course which covers everything - direction, editing, production, sound production, etc. Giving me the best base to find a career at the end of it. Scary stuff, I might get to the end of the year and decide it's nothing more than a hobby but that's my aim right now. I'm deeply, deeply unhappy with my career.

So Apparently my parents surprised us with a new 55" in TV. So that was a highlight.

We had a thread about gaming regrets at DBZ Center way back, I think maybe Dez started it... that sounds about right. Surely we all have things we regret, whether it's money wasted on shitty games, games we missed out on because of decisions that are questionable in hindsight (ie, picking one console over another), games we were late to the party on, the list goes on. And a lot of time has passed since we last looked back on our regrettable decisions, so those of us who responded to the original thread probably have new regrets to share. Of course it's perfectly fine to rehash the old regrets too I'll get the ball rolling: Even though I still for some reason have a soft spot for the Game Gear, I wish I hadn't agreed to give away my Game Boy + games in order to get a Game Gear. That damn colour screen was just too tempting

Trading in my PS1 RPG's for new PS2 games when I was 15. We're talking about Suikoden II, Valkyrie Prfoile, both Lunar's, ect... As for a buying regret, Fable will be the biggest one for me. Bought the game at full price and 100% the game in 12 hours....

This is probably my most wanted game right now... feels like the first huge improvement in gameplay and physics interactions in gaming since HL2 probably. Can't wait for June!

Worked my last shift yesterday. Was pretty chill. Spent three hours deleting emails and scrubbing my name from everything I've created for past few years, went to my empty ass office to hand back my laptop etc. One of my boss's was there (we need 24/7 emergency coverage) and he had his new puppy with him, so got to finally meet the pupster, got the pleasure of literally dumping my equipment outside my office, and he had left me a bottle of rum and a nice card outside too. This was at like lunchtime too was I fuck doing a full shift my last day. Got notification that my education money got approved, getting my final pay in three weeks and then I can make my proper 3 year budget but I think, if my rough calculation is correct, I'll actually have enough to finance myself for an extra six months after my education. If I can get a decent part time job I might actually look into doing a post graduate year. Super happy today

Still really enjoying a few chapters in. I can't even say why. It literally boils down to a fetch quest simulator most of the time but it's fucking facinating. Story and world are really interesting. Also, this:

The GameCube was great! I wince a little over the Wii U, but we still got a heck of a lot out of Mario Kart 8 before it was released on Switch, and now that there are so many good games on Switch it'd have more to compete with now anyway. I'm more annoyed that MK8 Deluxe didn't include more of the old courses or characters, even in DLC form. It feels like they need to do a Smash Bros Ultimate with the next MK game.
