A Nice Guy

I've been a nice guy forever. Something about it just doesn't seem to work though. As far as I can tell, girls don't want nice guys.

The old saying that nice guys finish last is very wrong. I'm more in favour of the somewhat modified nice guys get run over by a bus halfway through the race.

Being a nice guy gets me lots of friends. Lots of girls that like to talk with me and hang out, but none who want to be more. I'm feeling kind of broken about the whole thing today.

I'm going to keep being a nice guy to everyone I know. Just because, well, what else could I possibly be? It's all I know. When I move in a few weeks I'm going to give being a nice guy one more shot. I'm going to keep being me until the end of the summer.

If it doesn't work out by then, then I'm just going to find a way to stop being me. It'll be hard, and it'll hurt, but I won't be alone anymore.

It's funny how such great things happening to me can bring this out in me. They are great, but they would be so much more amazing if I had someone to share it all with.

*poke* so if you out there reading this, or your friends, or your friends friends, are the one I should share it all with. Leave a comment :)

I'm going to go eat chocolate and be happy. This will be revisted again someday I'm sure.

PSP

So, I picked up a PSP today with Lumines for a game. I like the game, but I like most puzzle games. The whole system seems quite nice. The little analog nub is pretty cool even if I don't really have a sue for it. Spiderman 2 which came with it looks phenomenal on the little widescreen display.

The sound is even good. I wish the headphones and the wrist strap weren't white, but other than that it is a pretty sweet deal and will go nicely with my Nintendo DS. I'm looking forward to when Mercury comes out for the PSP in a couple of weeks. It looks cool.

So why did I buy a PSP? Celebration of course! I bought an electric shaver as well today. We'll see how that works out. It's my last ditch effort to curb away from just growing a full beard like I really want to do. Why? I guess because you don't see too many beards around these days. It's all clean shaven and goatees.

Wee, Yipee, Yahoo!

I am so very happy today! I got the job that I had applied for and I can't wait to get moved and start. There are just so many ups to this whole thing.

It will be cool to be reunited with some old college pals once again. It will be cool to buy nice furniture in a place and at a time that I think I will care about it all.

I never could have made it this far without Ilona and my family urging me on. Thanks so much everyone! If I hadn't met Ilona I'm sure I'd still be just doing the daily grind. Not that the daily grind was bad, but it was a rut. This is something new, exciting and definitely progressive. Plus, I'm getting my second amazingly awesome raise in two years by doing this :)

Now I just have to make sure to get the book all looked after and not let her down.

I think this is going to be an amazing experience. So many people are already planning trips to come visit me after I move. Haha I can't wait :)

I don't get a lot of good things in my life, so I'm really really enjoying this to the fullest!

I know there will be some sort of karmic whiplash somewhere along the way, but I'll deal with that when it happens. For now, rock on!
