So That I Remember

Haha, as you can see from the title, I rushed to apply to some random job and ran out to get the PS3 + Resistance immediately afterwards...AND IT'S AWESOME!!! I played Resistance for a couple hours before I got too nauseous cus I'm a noob, then had to stop and take a nap LOL

Now the hunger is insatiable. Rock Band 2 is on sale for $99 this week, ending on Thursday. I'm so tempted to get it because of the huge discount (down from $159) but the thing is, do I really want it? I certainly don't want to play by myself, that's kind of sad, but nobody around has the free time to come play regularly. I don't want to get the full system and then sit through it playing drums all alone. Urg...what a dismal prospect!

As well, the Beatles Rock Band edition is coming out soon. Not that I want it, but it means that the old system will be discounted regularly from now, and if anything, the holiday season is coming up so I shouldn't rush out to buy it in case deeper discounts come. Arg, but I want to play drums. Arg, but I want some new songs. Arg...

*Bathroom break to think*

Wow. After those H-bomb chicken wings last night, it actually hurts to go to the washroom. I'm done, and it still stings.

Well at least the washroom break has provided ample time to think, and YES, I WILL GET ROCK BAND 2! It's a great deal for the instruments, and I can just buy the games separately later when they come out. Fuck the deals later on. Incentive plan:

The sale ends Thursday, so if by Wednesday night, I can send out 20 job applications, I will get Rock Band 2 on Wednesday/Thursday night. Considering each application takes about an hour to do, this will be a challenge, but I will do it for Rock Band!

LittleBigPlanet Game of the Year Edition comes out Sept 8, and I want to get that too. For that one, if I can send out an additional 40 job applications, I'll be first in line to grab it!

Oh my god, it's like a leveling up system. Haha, let me organize this:

1 app: PS3 + Resistance -- COMPLETE
21 apps by Thursday: Rock Band 2
70 apps: LittleBigPlanet Game of the Year Edition
120 apps: Bioshock
Interview: Swanky TV stand + cabinets
Job: 52' LCD HDTV

Eye on the prize.

Wow, incentive plans really work on me. I'm so motivated to apply now because I want Rock Band 2.

The fact that I also don't really care if I get a job or not makes this so much better. Haha! If I do, coolio, if I don't, I'm going back to China in November and traveling around until February (spending both New Years there, fucking sweet eh). I'm so glad that I went to UW into the co-op program. Having money saved up makes the current economy so much easier to bear, and completely stress free. I love it. If I get a job, I'll be able to get that LCD TV. It's a win-win situation!!

In other great news, I've lost all the weight I've gained in 5 years of university (it was like 6 lbs) from running/walking everyday. So now I'm back to my high school weight, and it feels great! I can fit into my old clothes and nothing is busting out of the seams haha. Now the goal is to lose the remaining 10 lbs so my convocation pictures will be awesome and I'll be able to get lots of clothes in China.

FFFUUCCKK. I love my life, I wish this never ends.
