  6h05tly's June 2009 Blog

  Hey everyone, 6h05tly here.

  Even though this is my June blog, I've merged some of my May progress into this blog (like I've always had in previous monthly blogs). Just to take a brief note on what happened this month, a lot happened this month. Several well-known celebrities walked on from this world (two of them on the same exact day this week) and their fans are in mourning as of right now. I tried the 1 vs. 100 beta this week and I got over half of the questions correct. I've almost made it to the top of the leaderboards of a certain game (which I'll mention later in this blog), so I'm happy about that. Overall, it was a tough month, not just by my achievement on my gaming progress, but also a month of remembering the fallen, both past and present.

  With that said and done, I'll begin my monthly progress (most of it is text-only BTW).

  6h05tly In Dream Land: PS3??!!!

  A new topic for my blog posting.

  This weekend (or earlier/later? The 6h05t can't even keep track these days...) I dreamed that I bought a PS3 at my hometown's local game store!

  Now, here was the catch from this dream...

  Most of my dreams are realistic, not imaginative. And what I mean by this is that I don't fly around the world or have these cool abilities that rival that of a god. So this is a bit of a downer for me since I do want my dreams to have these kinds of things!

  Anyway...

  I bought the PS3 and seconds later I returned it because I didn't have enough spare change for anything else.

  

  What does this mean for the 6h05t? How am I ever gonna save up for a PS3 right now? I'm gonna be busy with studying for my fall c1asses for the remainder of my summer break, which means no time for a part-time job.

  Does this mean it's time to get a PS3? I have no idea.

  Have you had dreams like these that told you of your destiny or anything similar to that?

  That's all for now. See Ya!

  (And I'm preparing to get ready for my June blog so be sure to check it out when it comes )

  I'm This Close to Being Victorious!!!

  If you have Xbox Live and own Banjo-Tooie for XBLA, check the leaderboards on the mini-game: Chompa's Belly.

  As of right now, I'm 8th on that leaderboard. It's getting harder though as I tried so many times to break my current record of 143.

  Maybe I should add this to my June monthly blog as a serious skill.

  Just a little update on my gaming progress.

  See Ya!
