Just an update on me in general. I’m looking to open a gaming channel on August 1st. Book’s coming along nicely! Also will be updating my personal site a lot more. So follow and enjoy!

ETSU Graduation – Zero Hour
Well, the time for me to graduate ETSU is finally here. In another hour I’ll have a Bachelor’s in Digital Media! Sitting here in the hall is like waiting in a dropship to be deployed. A life-changing moment for me to say the least. Let’s see what’s in store for me in the future.
Life First – Stuck in an Elevator
Well, from seeing all those shows on TV, I never thought I’d see this happen. I got stuck inside when the doors failed to open on the second floor. Then the emergency key wasn’t inside, and the emergency info led to the campus security.
So my sister and I were stuck there for about 30-40 minutes until they got it open. The fire department were the ones who ultimate had to force the doors open. At least we weren’t stuck halfway or something.
I Don’t Think I’ll Date “Local” Anymore
Maybe one day I’ll talk about it as I see fit. I don’t have the will to probably spell it out.
In 2007 I tried to put my best foot forward today to meet someone, told them I liked and was interested in them. Someone I knew for a good 1+ years at least. 3 days later they started dating a white guy from their church. That bothered me greatly, as if they just started seeing someone for the sake of not being single.
Something similar happened a few days ago, to someone I knew for a number of years. The same scenario played out when I told her I was interested in her. Lightning doesn’t strike twice? Well it certainly did here.
However, that seems to be part of a bigger, indicative problem that’s been happening since 2005. I’m not wanted or have any interest in with the people I meet. I have tried to at least work with someone, but considering how much effort there is to even get anyone to give you more than a second of their time, it’s clearly evident I’m alien and foreign to the local tastes. My homeschooled background does not help, as I’ve not mixed with my age of people in those critical, early years either.
Milestone – 1st “Eateries” Photo
Again and again, I hit milestone with my iPhone. While I have taken pictures of my food before, it wasn’t really a thing in my mind till I had reread a portion of Margaret Mason’s No One Cares What You Had for Lunch. Yes, nobody cares, but she said to show rather than blog “Oh, I had fries for dinner.” This was more as a test photo if anything, but it would be the first of many as I slowly became comfortable taking pictures of my food.
Here, I was pretty sure this got taken because the Reeds non-alcoholic ginger brew looked like real beer, especially in the glass. Hmm.
First iPhone Selfie
This was a bit of a big deal, as it was the first time I took a selfie with my iPhone to “update” my social media/deviantART at the time. Somehow I took better selfies back then than I do now. o.O Seated in the Orion at the time.
VLOG – 002
Sorta lengthy blog, has an additional part at the end. Sorry I was away for spring break.
Stardate 6011.02.22.02.28
If I did this 6 minutes earlier I would have had a bunch of 2’s in a line.
I know I haven’t blogged here in forever. In all honestly I didn’t think people bothered with what was going on in my life, so I no longer bothered and didn’t post a single viable thing since last February. It didn’t and still doesn’t make sense to tell everyone something when they don’t want to even listen to it. I probably still feel the same way…
But I digress. This isn’t the time or the place for this. I have an important announcement to make.

Just a quick update. Sorry if I sound a little rushed in this one. But got my computer updated, for now. Have some stuff coming up soon, so stay tuned!
Leaving Home for ETSU
I apologize if the photo is blurry, but I swiped this from my Mom; she caught this as I was boarding my car to head to my apartment, with m last load of precious items to permanently stay at my apartment. Class was the next day, so the earlier I left and got settled in, the better. I told my family goodbye and basically just left on the dot at 6PM. It was a very weird and strange feeling, and I had never felt so independent in my whole life.
It was bittersweet, but I had been longing such a chance since I was supposed to go to Walters State in 2005; and this felt like a new page, a new reset to try again. But for the most part, it felt a lot better and more solid than what was going on then. Like something right had at least happened.
