My opinion about life. It is probably fairly game related ^^

Mondays...
Hi everyone,
Nice sunny weather is just as normal here as a hangover after a not-so-down-to-earth-night. NOT! It's raining cats and dogs, almost literally speaking. I think our small country absorbed the water like a sponge, because I get the feeling that we're living a bit higher than usual due to the thin air... Below see level my ass, we would've drowned by now then. Will the rain ever stop?
Ironically enough, the sky is clearing up as we speak. I can even see some sun in my room just now. You know that feeling? The feeling you get when you're finally used to something and while you're finally at peace the 'something' just changes again.
Oh well.. At least I don't have to worry about getting lost in a storm when I go to my job. The sun will probably vaporize me before I even get there.
Life goes on ^^
I bought myself a laptop for my new school. Too bad the payment went wrong, and now my order got deleted and my money is gone too. D*mn! Moreover my cellphone still isn't in my possesion and our Digital TV is having fun playing games with us. Congrats to everyone who wanted to annoy me, you've just succeeded.
On to the more enjoyable things in life... like Wii. The Nintendo Wii is probably my last game console because I kinda lost my interest in games... NO! Please stay with us sir! I'm still ok, I'm not mad! Yo lady! Argh, my fans! They all fainted... Well, the only thing I can do now is stop writing and hope the best for these few dear readers.
Take care everyone,
Kostas
BTW: It's raining again, oh sweet hilarity...

Dragon-Drawing-Duel
Hi everyone,
Today I had a drawing-contest with a girl named Rosa. Actually we started Sunday, but we chose to show our works to each other this Tuesday. It ended up that her work was the best... Quite impressive, although I could not take a good look at it because she showed her work through the webcam. I'm quite happy with my dragon, but I'm almost sure that mine lacks the "force" compared to hers. Nevertheless it turned out fairly well.
We agreed that a background would be nice, but neither of us finished that part yet.
Oh well... We'll see about that later. The point is, I've probably been beaten by a girl ThE HoRroR ^^ No, I would like to congratulate her, because it's very hard to beat a guy like me *cough*.

In other news, I returned my cellphone to the company because of the small beauty flaws. I hope I get a perfect one in return; also because of the high prices for package mailing.
Oh man, am I tired now. It's only 01:19, but it feels like 08:00 on a Monday morning before work. On the background I hear Limp Bizkit with My Way Or The Highway. It's on a loop (like usual), but I guess I'll change it now.
My bed looks like heaven right now; if I ever where to have a girl in this bed, the bed should look just like this ^^ I'm 'a Do Things My Way! Woops, guilty for not changing the song. *click* Ok, now Billy Talent is on with This Is How It Goes. It's a really great rock band with a special feeling in their music. I would almost call it 'The Force' again.
Well, I hope this is enough for today/tonight.
Take care,
Kostas

Drunk over-aged girls in karts; cellphones included!
Hey everyone,
Because of some 'certain circumstances' I wasn't able to post on the blog. If you're looking for me these days, you should wander around the Geestmerambacht; I bet you'll find me doing a nice twisted jump in the water; which, of course, fails. Luckily this time of the year it lacks some seriously annoying bugs and bacteria. The down side proofs itself with the children who are now allowed to play in the damn water. Sadly there are more under-aged girls than necessary, not to mention the OVER-aged girls...
In the evenings you can find me with a few neighbours and other scum around here.We're probably playing SSBM or Mario Kart: Double Dash. Finally some punks I'm able to beat! With little luck you can even find me in a pub... Don't worry folks, I won't get drunk. That mainly has to do with the high prices of beer (2 euro); but I shouldn't forget the part that I just don't like to drink beer. Give me Heaven, but Lord, please don't give me beer!
Some other info about me lately: I surrender mysellf to mass-consumption. I finally found my "inner-whore" and got myself a cellphone. Nokia6230i is her name and she does everything I want... Except for looking good. The problem is that the back can't be connecred correctly so it's a bit higher than the rest of the gadget. It now looks like some strange punk haircut, which is not funny... Oh well, with a little luck I'm allowed to send it back and get me a new one ^^
I hope I will be able to update more often from now on. For now, all I have to say is: "Thanks for reading and please leave a comment" ^^
Take care,
Kostas

Some BS for a change ^^
Hey everyone,
I feel like I have so much to do lately. So many things on the (black)list to take care of... However, when I check how much time everything will cost you could say I've got quite much freetime; it just doesn't feel like it...
I want to write as much as possible, but at the same time I don't have a clue what I, a guy who's knowledge goes as far as a brick, could possibly tell you, the intelligent readers who read this blog out of pity.
I haven't played any games the last few days (except a game of chess with my neighbour) and I'm not in the mood to talk about problems in life.
Here I am, sitting behind my PC after a long day in the city Alkmaar looking for a gift without any results. I just turned my music off and took my headset... It feels good on my ears. They say it doesn't matter how cold your body gets, as long as your ears and feet are warm, you won't find it too much of a problem.
Why am I even posting now? I'm probably getting on your nerves. But hey, don't worry! You're allowed to bitch at me in the comment section.
Ready... GO!
Greetings,
Kostas

Finally done!
To be honest, I do not believe in God, still I want to thank Him because I'm done with my days of slavery! Yep, school is no more. I guess I'm free to say that "I'm 2 cool 4 school!" now ^^
That happy feeling of homework and finals is gone, sad but true. The nasty holidays are about to start. Last thursday I heard the relieving words from my teacher, I didn't think I could make it, but I did! D*mn that felt Go(o)d.
Immediately I was invited to a gameparty at a friend's place -thanks Jeroen- to release all the adrenaline of the past five years in a few bloody battles on screen.
Kung Fu how it's supposed to be!After a quiet day, I was invited to another party on Saturday -Rob, thanks to you too-. After a little talking, we went outside to the nearest greenness planted bush called "Geestmerambacht". There was a 'Indian Summer Festival' going on there and the tickets were 30-40 (!) euro... So we decided to watch from a distance. It was already midnight so a few of us were drunk as hell ^^
Of course I was still sober, to guide the rest (and watch them struggle, hehe). It's very amusing to see some drunk punk with a girl on his back stumble and almost break his neck (God I wish we had pics!). Fun times, fun times! ^^
One of my best friends will make his comeback in a few weeks; as you might know Wesley went to Tasmania for a year. For pure educational purposes of course, right Wes? I hope he will be able to survive the culture-shock and if he does, I'm sure he won't survive the lack of oxygen here. Man, it seems like everyone I know is starting to smoke nowadays. I'm getting a bit sick of it, because they all ruin their health and of course it's choking for others, like me.
Are you a slave too?Oh well, I guess we leave the smokers alone for now... But I WILL continue on this subject later on! It's quite sunny outside, so I guess I will take a walk outside. Take care everyone,
Kostas

Fun with Art
Hey everyone,
This post will be a little less educative. I'm gonna show you my latest art pieces. "Art pieces? Ow Nowhs! My eyes, they burn!" Silence! You haven't even seen them yet!
The first one is from a manga/anime; his name is Gohan.
Gohan SSJI've drawn this one with an example on the computer:
Original imageDo they look a like? No? Good! Because they're supposed to be a bit different.
After the drawing, I scanned it and coloured it on the computer. I think it came out quite well.
Next on our list is Samus Aran. You know, the female Bounty Hunter from Nintendo.
Samus AranThis is the example I used:
Original imageI have also drawn this one while peeking at an image on the computer and later on I also coloured it, like Gohan. Only this time I used a different shadow pattern and style. I think it turned out nice.
Well, that's it for now. I also have non-coloured drawings but I'll wait with posting them until I coloured them too. I hope you liked them; post a comment if you do. And if you don't, you should also post a comment, perhaps with some useful help.
Take care,
Kostas
