Somethings Coming – My Spider Sense is Tingling…

Bah, been a while since the last blogaroo… unfortunately i can’t write blogs if i don’t feel like them – correction! I don’t post blogs that I write when I don’t feel like it because quite simply i’m not happy with them.  And I only want my best goin out there.

However a few things have happened that i need to blog about.  Such as my trip to Arashiyama and my other trip to see the Osaka Sky Building.  Not only that, Mid-terms are about up (still got 1 left) and i’ll blog about that soon.  Also I’d like to write a blog catching up on what life’s been like lately – because trust me, things have changed.  I also need to start my topical blogs about things in Japan (like trains, buses, mobile phones blah blah).

Patience young ones, things need to be done, but they need to be done right.  You’ll love em when they get there.

Life as a Game

If my life were a game:

  • Writing to this little “Kansai-Gaidai-Exchange-Blog” would be saving my progress (800kb’s)
  • I would be level 21
  • Definitely a first person adventure
  • Geek class with Cool attributes (Hybrid Character)
  • Probably boring
  • Would be released on the 30 November
  • Single Player
  • Exclusive to the Playstation [insert generation number]
  • Mitch would be the best friend I’ll have to save one day
  • 87 collectable Kebab’s scattered across Beenleigh
  • Gotta collect Money! It’ll cost $5.20 to train into Uni everyday!
  • Can risk eating cheap chinese when low on money – may get indegestion.
  • Slightly negative Karma to begin with – but with incentives to make it positive
  • The Game would end when I leave for Japan – As we take off the credits start rolling to the sweet sound of Air’s “Alone in Kyoto” playing in the background

Ciao for Now!
