Now that Christmas is over with, I figured that I would post one more time in 2013. So happy holidays to everyone. This post will not be a game blog like normal. Instead, I have decided to share a little about what went on with me personally. I usually don't like to do these, since my life is pretty boring, and I can be a negative person pretty easily. Although, I feel comfortable enough here to open up a little bit about myself.

Last January, I started my second semester of college and was doing okay with it. But I was also dealing with a really bad depression because of a girl. I was so deeply in love with her, that I let my heart be torn out by her. I'm still trying to recover from what happened between us.

February, I bought and played Fire Emblem Awakening. It was a pretty good game. I got about halfway through it before becoming bored with it. I also started talking to a girl in a different state. We went out for Valentine's Day. I drove 6 hours to get there, and we had a good time. We started talking on the phone afterward.

In March, I bought and played Castlevania Lords of Shadow Mirror of Fate. I really liked that game, and even wrote a review. Unfortunately, the reviewer at 1Up didn't, and wrote an overly hypercritical review of it. I said as such in the comments, but it wasn't well received. The girl I was spending time with also broke up with me. It hurt, because I really liked her. She dumped me for her high school friend that had moved back to town.

So a few months went by. I stopped going to my classes because I was just too sad. It was really hard to get out of bed or concentrate on anything. I hate getting like that, like feeling you just want to die. I downloaded some of the Mega Man games on 3DS and had a good time with those. In June, I bought and played Project X Zone. It was good, but it didn't hold my attention beyond a dozen battles.

In July, the girl from Valentine's Day started messaging me again. Her boyfriend had broken up with her because of her son. We started talking again, and I took a chance on visiting her again. I went up there to visit her, and we went to the carnival on the days I was there. It turns out that she ended up not wanting me then either. I found out later that she missed her boyfriend more than she liked having me there. Even after telling her I had feelings for her, she just didn't care. So I gave up on her.

My 3DS got broken in August. So I haven't had a chance to replace it. Then I got a job at Walmart. I worked there for a couple weeks, then my grandmother died unexpectedly. So after dealing with that, my aunt asked if I would move in with my grandpa to keep him company and help out around the house. So I quit there and moved.

In September, I bought and played Kingdom Hearts HD, but ended up selling it off because I needed the gas money. I ended up selling off my Nintendo DS and a lot of PS3 games because of that, as well.

After looking for a couple months, I found a part time job at Speedway. I started there in October. I also played Ducktales Remastered and really enjoyed that. This last month, I got a job at Walmart market as well. So now I'm getting 50+ hours a week. Life isn't perfect now, but it is okay.

I hope that next year, I can get out of debt. Then I can go back to school in the fall. Make a devoted effort this time. I'm also going to try quit smoking again for my resolution. It would be great if I could find somebody as well, but I'm not holding my breath for that to happen. So how was everyone else's year?
