It's that time of semester! Exams are looming and will be here for me in a months time. I've also got 2 seminar presentation to present for physiology and anatomy and human biology, to all the professors and students. Other than that, I've got a smaller speech to do, and 3 lab reports (microscopy, erythroid differentiation, and secondary degeneration of the optic nerve in rats). On top of this, I've got to get together my medical school application within 2-3 weeks..

This will no doubt be my most stressful 1-2 months ahead, but I will be glad to get all of this over and done with so I can rest in the one-month holidays that follow my exams in late June I haven't played any videogames for about 5 months now! I'm pretty shocked, and I think it's time that I get back into the mood of it all once again when I have the time. Hmm...not many other eventful things have been happening with life at the moment, besides the weekly occasion of going out with mates and partying. Sadly, that will have to be put in the backseat now, as my performance at Uni is at the top of the agenda.

Hope everyone is doing well!!

I waited 3 weeks for Jess to reply when I asked her out through a text. I just got rejected by her last week. I admitted my feelings for her whilst asking her out to a concert through a text message, and she texted back this -

"I like you alot too and I really enjoy hanging out with you, but I've sort of just started going out with someone else. Lack of money makes concert impossible."

Funny thing is that she flirted with me heavily during a unit I studied over the Summer at university, and it was obvious that we had good chemistry (could tell from body language etc). She also said that we should go out sometime clubbing etc. She would always ask me after class what I was going to do for the rest of the day. She totally seemed that she was looking for a guy to be with...

The last time that I met her in person was in mid-February, where we were at the train station and it was the last teaching day of my Summer unit. She stared into my eyes the whole time, cheekily joked about things, smiled alot, and we talked for about an hour straight. I was mezmerised...and at the same time felt that she could have been my potential girlfriend.

She pulled my strings back then, and I started to like her after a while. Now, she is quite distant in her text replies, and I just can't be bothered pursuing her now. If she wants to meet up with me, then I'll leave that to her ... because if I keep chasing her, I will just lose precious time and get hurt in the process. And I was hurt deeply over the past few days, so much that I lost my appetite for food, became depressed, felt like vomitting whenever I ate, and my heart was beating alot faster...

I truly thought that she was a nice, cheeky, pretty and gentle girl. But now, my opinion has vastly changed

It will be strange if I bump into her at university....

Love is a weird thing.

Hey Gamespotters,

Once upon a time I used to be another member here called 'BlackBeauty', which I registered back in mid-2003. Unfortunately, my account had passowrd issues after a while, after some uber-lame hacking of my email account. Anyway, I'm back, and I'll be hanging around off-topic forums as well as surfing Gamespot once in a while.

I'm in the final year of a Bachelor of Science at the University of Western Australia, majoring in physiology. I plan to go to medical school next year or within the next few years, as its been my dream. Nothing else in the world could satisfy my need to learn something as challenging and evolving as the field of medicine, as well as contributing to the aid of other people's health. Its a stressful path, but as I've noticed of the people who have successfully gone through to medical school, its ultimately rewarding and worth the hard yards. But, even though there is lots of pressure, its also important to enjoy life too. Life isn't all about work!

I used to play videogames quite a lot, but as I'm getting older (21 this year), I've slowly grown a little detached from it all. I still game sometimes, but not as much as I used to. Anyway, its good to post a starting blog here, and just saying Hi to other Gamespotters out there

Cheers!
