How to play Minecraft

Posted inReflections, VideogamesNo Comments
So, Jane's Xbox (360 - but do I really need to clarify that?) is downstairs, and Lewis has taken to playing Minecraft on it while Ethan watches. At first, a few months ago, it was Skyrim - but after Myrtle saw a person behead another person it was banned while Ethan was awake. I don't think Lewis realised that I…

35 years old. Let that sink in. Thirty-five. Holy shits. I know I always say every year that I don't feel a day over 25, but for once I don't feel like 25. Jane got me a couple of really nice shirts that I am too fat to wear comfortably and some teabags. Claire, Lewis and Ethan got me a…

600th post spectacular – Questions galore

Posted inBooks, Creativity, Internet, Reflections, Site Related, VideogamesNo Comments

Ok, so the numbers say that this will be post number 600. I feel like I want to do something special for it, and after having a little think, I remembered that I’m currently reading a book on my Nexus called “Be creative” by Infinite Ideas – it was free and has so far given me a few decent tips. In one chapter it had a list of questions you should ask of yourself in order to understand yourself, because how often do you actually stop and question things?

So, here we are with the questions and answers. I endeavoured to be as brutally honest as I could be and I gave each question a lot of thought. I ended up spraying my thought process on to the page as I was typing, and I did repeat myself a little, so be warned!

WARNING!!! VERY LONG POST!!!

This post is going to have the most tags ever.

Fitness targets

Posted inReflectionsNo Comments
It's got me thinking, the creative target thing. Maybe I need to have targets... No, no, no, I already have targets. Maybe I need to make these targets public? Well first of all, and this may come as no surprise, I'd like to stop smoking. I'm starting to feel the effects badly now - I dread catching a cold, and,…

Level Up!

34. As is tradition - I must say that I don't feel a day older than 25. Jane got me some smelly stuff, a cool Tetris mug that reveals a pattern when hot water is inserted, and a larger memory card for my mp3 player. The James'ses got me a WHSmiths voucher, and Colin and Myrtle got me a lovely…

Tonsillitis

Posted inCreativity, ReflectionsNo Comments
I have tonsillitis. It is not good. Jane has it, Myrtle has it, Claire has it, Lewis has it, Ethan had it - I feel like putting a black X up on our front door. I've had it since Thursday, and it is progressively getting worse. I will be going to the doctors tomorrow, for sure. I worked a 12…

Happy birthday to me

Another year, eh? I'm blessed. Levelled up to 33. Ridiculous. You know how I always say I don't feel a day over 25? This time I really mean it. Whilst I'm still not in the best shape of my life, I'm not a horrible mass of blubber. Still a work in progress, I'm getting there. As for presents, Jane and…

Holiday 2011: Day 7

Posted inReflections, VideogamesNo Comments
We went to Teignmouth on day seven. It was raining, so we didn't really see much there. We went to The House Of Marbles, saw some guys blowing glass things, Jane and Myrtle bought some glass things, other than that, not a lot happened on this day. I got the impression Jane was still feeling delicate. In the evening we…

Holiday 2011: Day 6

Posted inReflections, VideogamesNo Comments
We went to Torquay on day six. This was one of my favourite days. Myrtle was obsessed with finding a Marks and Spencers in Torquay. I'm not sue why when we have a couple not too far away from where we live. The shopping area in Torquay was really nice, although it did sprawl a little. Lots of little streets…
