vidya games and my body hates me

[antoj]

today i took photos of the rest of the inFamous things not yet on my site. It will probably be the last update for a while because IDK when I can afford to buy more things. :D

I'm still wondering how I am going to afford some of the new games coming out that I want, but at least one of them is confirmed for October, so I will ask for it for my birthday.

So far the only other games coming out this year that is a 100% sure Day 1 buy for me is the Resistance Vita game (must see how the new studio handles my beloved IP) and Overstrike. look they're both Insomniac related!!!

As for life stuff, not been doing much. I've been playing a lot of video games lately... mostly my Vita and then the Jak & Daxter collection, which has been a blast. There are some missions in that game that make me want to set fire to my PS3 most of which include the horrible vehicles and timers in the games but man... these games make me seriously wonder why I missed out on the PS2 era. Oh, and best yet? There are rumors of a Ratchet & Clank PS3 collection too! I already played through them all on PS2 because Insomniac... but you can bet your bacon I will be playing them again in glorious HD and trophies I am hoping Ratchet: Deadlocked makes it to the collection, but it probably will not since it seems to only include 3 games per collection. Most people didn't like Deadlocked but I actually had a lot of fun with it.

And my Vita? I've still only been playing Lumines! I'm so addicted. I have songs from the levels stuck in my head and I just cannot stop. I want to get all the trophies someday, but it will probably take a while. Still, I got a good amount of them already. I just love trophies too much lately. give me all your platinums, games.

In other news.. I've been kind of sick lately. Not like conventional sick but more like my body hates me and idk why sick. I think its heartburn related but I'm not entirely sure. Basically I can be eating something and then after I swallow it I get this intense pain in my chest. The closest I can compare it to is feeling like I swallowed a bunch of glass. It just is horrible. I barely ate anything for like 2 days because it was so bad, it seems better today, but I felt it earlier while eating a sandwich. :/ I think I need to modify my diet some more but idk what else I can do.

My dad was asking me if it had to do with my vegetarian diet. lol no dad, it doesn't. i mean, i have been eating like this for...4ish years? a while, and this is recent, like this week recent. And introducing meat back into my system after all that time? even WORSE feels. plus meat is disgusting* and i have 0 desire to eat it anymore so GL with that, captain.

*plz note i don't care if you guys all eat meat, is cool by me, but i personally do not. think of me as more of a picky eater than one of those judgmental dbags ok, its accurate to how i feel

uh yea idk my life is feeling like crap and playing games. :D at least games somewhat combat my depression. idk things.

i have been super stressed out lately over homework and i think part of it is that i haven't played any games in over a week. that probably sounds stupid but games help me relax and stop thinking about stuff. ;-; i hardly even have time for LJ at this point

i did pre-order the collector's edition of darksiders II though. it looks so good bro. and mario party 9 came out today and i want it. i just got a horde of new PS3 games though so maybe i shouldn't get new ones for a while.

also i hear you on the meat thing, i only eat certain animals (not sure if i could ever go full veggie thanks to my eating habits, but beast boy might make me do it one day). so my dad will not leave me alone about it, he acts like a five year old telling me how stupid that is. i also learned he thinks vegetarians are childish which is the dumbest thing ever. if anything i admire veggie people.

Games are the best, man. I have been feeling kind of under the weather lately, so I've been playing through Fire Emblem for the umpteenth time. I also borrowed Shadow of the Colossus from a friend, though I am really, really bad at it.

There are way too many games coming out that I want this year. Black 2/White 2, Nobunaga's Ambition, the new Animal Crossing game, Fire Emblem 3DS (assuming it comes to the US before 2013), Tales of Graces, maybe TotA for the 3DS because I love that game... Stupid 3DS, why did you get me back into handheld gaming?

I'm so used to buying one, maybe two used games per year--due to hating most Wii and DS titles--that I didn't even think about how I will afford all of these. I'll figure something out, hopefully.

Basically I can be eating something and then after I swallow it I get this intense pain in my chest.
This used to happen to me in jr. high. Mine felt more like my throat was on fire than like I swallowed glass, but yeah. :( I can't remember what I did to fix it, aside from figuring out which foods were the problem and cutting them from my diet. I think cheese was one of the culprits.

If you did try introducing meat back into your diet recently, that could be the cause. Some foods make me sick if I haven't eaten them in months.

I hear you on the meat thing. I like white meat, but I can't stand beef, pork, or certain kinds of fish (like salmon). My mom always asks me if I want to try a bite of her steak or ribs and I'm like "ew, no, that's disgusting". The main problem with vegetarian diets is that it's easy to shortchange yourself on vitamins and minerals, but I assume you've got that covered if you've been doing this for 4 years.

NOT SURE but old wives tale says that drinking milk can calm hearburn?

Not 100% accurate, though :X

Anyways, hope ya get better!

And you make me want to play games again ;___;

There was this one time, while I was still working at the pound that my chest hurt so bad that I thought I was having a heart attack. Like you had described, it felt like I had swallowed glass. My one boss handed me a Pepsi and told me to drink it. Within minutes, I began to burp and the pain went away. Apparently, I had really bad gas and that was all...O_o

If your problem is heartburn related, lying on your left side with your head partially elevated can help relieve the pain. As for your non-meat eating life style, in ways I envy you. I wish I could give up meat, but I have been a meat eater for to long. The older I have gotten, the less I seem to like chicken though. Fish seems to be my main meat of choice now days, especially sushi.

I hope you feel better soon and I am glad that you are having fun playing your video games. I'm still playing Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. I probably would of been further by now, but I have had a lot on my plate...;_;
