Not Enough, or The lack of Effort in Trying

What's up, ladies and gentlemen? I am your blogger, Erik, and I'm back with another helping of this lovely view and the thoughts that pour out of my mind. I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the fall weather. As a gamer, I'm excited for a few games that are coming out or are already out. I've played the first couple of missions of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare reboot, and my goodness, it is a beautiful piece of art. There's a few more that I can't wait for, but then again, I can. The Avengers game coming out in 2020 looks really good, along with DragonBall Z: Kakarot, which I hope will be similar to the old Budokai series, where we play the story of Dragonball Z. I'd kinda like a game that follows from the original Dragonball, all the way through DragonBall Super(which is the most recent story of the Z warriors). Coming this holiday season, though, is Pokemon: Sword and Shield. Two separate games that will follow the same sales strategy that Gamefreak/Nintendo has used since the inception of Pokemon. I doubt that they will make a third game in the vein of Pokemon Crystal, and Sapphire, but here's to hoping. There's a few more that I am excited for, and I'm hoping that game developers and publishers are finally starting to realize that gamers, whether they are adult gamers like me, or children whose parents have to fund the countless DLC, microtransactions, and all the extra purchases that have become commonplace, are no longer welcome. I don't hate DLC as a bonus for preordering, but I do mind paying 50% of the main purchase price for extra characters, or a very short story addition.

Recently, I had to go to the doctors to give/get a little bit of an update on certain things, and I found out that over the last couple of months, I've lost ten pounds. I'm not exactly sad about it, but I also kinda feel like I could have done much better. I know ten pounds doesn't sound like a lot to me. But I also know that when I pick up a ten-pound weight, I know that I've picked up a ten-pound weight. I'm glad that I'm finally losing something. I'm glad that I'm finally going down, not up, but I really thought I could have done better. I'm working on myself in more ways than one. I'm trying to go to bed earlier, eat better(I've failed this weekend) and I'm trying to make responsible decisions with my finances(again, not doing the best this week, but not as bad as I once was).

There are some things that I'm not comfortable sharing right now, but just know that I am working on myself in more ways than one. I'm doing my best to get to the next best version of myself. I'm doing my best to shoot up from the bottom, and really find exactly who I'm meant to be.

Ya'll, it's time for me to go, and I can't wait to keep up on this journey, and I hope that you keep on keepin' on with me. Thanks for reading and hanging out and checking out this view, and I hope you have a bright day.
