*Drumroll* It's an update.

I feel like a bit of a git, coming over here back in February and going on about this being a great new site, slick, cool and I'm going to really get into it. Then what, 177 posts? A single blog, no reviews, no real presence in the boards. Well that should be about to change. From now, I'll be posting my blogs from gamersperspective here as well and I'll make an effort to involve myself with the community a bit more.

So, the update:

At this moment in time, I'm in a sort of limbo. My AS exams are all but finished (statistics in a week's time) and on Monday I start the lessons for the A2 courses. This point feels kind of weird, because I have 3 or 4 important choices to make in the coming months, but there is nothing that I do for at least 2 months. These choices are: which subject do I drop for next year. The choice is between maths and Philosophy/Ethics. Up to now, I had been fairly convinced that I would drop Philosophy, but now I'm not so sure. I don't want to dwell on the things that I can change, but my maths exam was hard and Philosophy and Ethics felt like they went well. I can always resit a maths module if needs be, but I am far less certain than I was.

The other big decision is which universities to apply for in October. I can go for 4 medical schools, with one non medical back up, and at the moment, I'm thinking of Oxford, Nottingham, Peninsula (Exeter/Plymouth) and Cardiff. But I'm not sure about Cardiff. Really not sure. I've got open days coming up, but the Cardiff one looks like it will clash with my work experience placement, which was not easy to get (in the end, I got set up with a friend of my biology teacher as I couldn't get onto any hosptial's in house scheme.) Meh. I'll think about it in a few weeks.

My personal life seems to be taking a positive turn in recent weeks. I'm seeing a lot more of my old friends who all went to a different school to me after year 11 and I'm doing an awful lot less of what I'm doing now: sitting in my house, alone, on the net.

I also seem to be addicted to Faith No More's Angel Dust and anything I can get my hands on by Dream Theater. If you haven't listened to either of these bands, you need to.

Gaming-wise, I'm having a bit of a dry spell. I really wanted to finally finish Bioshock, but I've been so damned busy, I just don't have the time to put into it.

For noobfeed readers- Hopefully this blog will actually post, as it failed when I tryed to blog a few weeks ago. Also, visit gamesperspective.com

GP readers- don't worry, this doesn't mean I'm spending any less time with you guys. fishdalf may have already mentioned it to you, but if you visit noobfeed.com you will be impressed.

As always
