The Everyday Yammerings Of Stratus Hunter

Task 1. Mission Accomplished?

I was sitting around reading http://ohdearmybrainisleaking.blogspot.com/ and it would seem I have found a kindred spirit, are all game based students alike? I suppose it would make sense certain personalities picking certain courses.

I particularly love the guilt feeling portrayed after forking out easily £100 for a new console, not unlike my own feelings after buying a psp! The general thoughts mimic that of most students, or so I believe, neighbours and flatmates seem to play such a major role in our lives. For example my neighbour in the block next door believes that music is now the new way to demolish an entire building my window is currently shaking to the bass, which you have no idea how annoying it is when trying to right your first blog entry!

I paint the picture in my head of this mystery games art student like that of most other students you can see on campus fairly scruffy alternative clothing and the eagle eye vision for spotting bargains.

I believe that blogging is a very personal thing as your writing style will always subtly release hints about your personality, like my loathing of noisy neighbours, but it’s really a personal choice of what you wish to write, revealing the beauty of the internet as a whole ‘different strokes for different folks’ scenario.

My writer I have chosen to read about mainly discuss’ the everyday goings on within his life but most posts are mainly based on the obvious hobby of computer gaming. He writes every week, well from September at least, I’m guessing end of last year to the start of this year was his well deserved rest period.

The audience of the internet doesn’t seem to phase me or sway my style of writing in any way. Due to it being such a vast audience you know that you cannot agree with everyone and somewhere there will always be someone who disagrees with you. But on a more positive note it also allows you to find like minded people.

  • Ah, John A does have a way with his words... and a good cartoonist too. I am so glad I don't live with lots of people, I can't abide other ppls music in my head.

    Truly, the game course is a home for lost souls - I was inpsired by my friends at UAT to set it up - build it and they will come, they said. How true. So welcome to your new home, and pass the ammunition - its time to frag!
