Birthday Update, I guess

My experiences since the last update have not varied much at all. I’m more comfortable relaxing at work, I now watch/listen to HassanAbi on Twitch while working, I even managed to slip this into conversation so my coworkers know why I’m not talking to them, though I said I was listening to a podcast.

My parents are getting a divorce, my mothers solicitor sent a letter in the post asking my father for details of his assets. My dad initially responded like a cuck and offered to sign the house into my mother’s name if she didn’t divorce him, I’ve managed to talk him around and he should put up some kind of fight, also told him it was likely my sister who is finding the solicitor or “wakeel” as they are known in Pakistani. I am firmly against my mother, she simply wants money, that’s her sole motivation and this is the easiest way to get some, she hasn’t even tried looking for a job or claiming any kind of benefits. I empathise why my father, he works many hours and pays all the bills even though my adult sister has been living there for years.

My brother is definitely getting married now, that has been confirmed to me, prior to finding out, I bought him a PS5 but I guess he won’t be needing that anyone, I said he didn’t need to pay me for it but he did anyway, I suppose it’s not a big deal to him even though I hear he’s also buying a house.

my sister offered to buy me a present, last year she dropped £45 on the newly released “The Last of Us: Part 2”, I didn’t want any video games this year, I have all the ones that I want and don’t see any more that intrigue me releasing until next year apart from the sequel to “Judgment”. I settled on a pair of satin pillowcases for £7.

I’m also possibly still buying a house but my dad is doing most of the legwork due to my working hours, it’s a seller’s market and houses get hundreds of interested parties within hours.

I’ve failed to maintain my social links, I keep saying that this weekend,.I’ll touch base with everyone but I end up too exhausted and waking up in the twilight hours. I have, however, managed to achieve the Platinum trophy on “Mass Effect”, I’d never played the series before and now see what I was missing out on, this is the type of Western RPG that I can get behind. When choosing my characters name, I went with “Amber”, I feel it’s more me than “Monica”. I’ve not watched any Euro 2020 games but hope England lose their next game.

My goal is what humanity has strived for since the dawn of time, maximum comfy, it starts with buying a house and then working part time so I can comfortably play all the video games and read all the books I want.

Video games and work

Alas, another 2 weeks has passed without an update, time moves so quickly, yet also so slowly. I am not sure how to feel about my job, still, it’s complicated, the money is good, the work is easy but I sometimes feel I should be doing even less work. It seems the guy who I met when working on days has gotten sick of his new role and may quit, this also left more work for me but like a good girl, I did a large portion of it instead of just half. The work day is completely without chatter now, no one even bothers talking to me, I am happy with this, I’d much rather listen to YouTube videos, recently, I’ve also taken to listening to Hasan Piker (HasanAbi) on Twitch while I work.

My father is still driving me to work daily, I appreciate this though he is pushing me to take driving lessons, we’re also looking for a house to buy, there seem to be few available and they get bought up very quickly, as for driving lessons, both AA and RED are booked up.

What I’m looking forward to right now is the big /britfeel/ summer meetup though I still need to book my tickets, my holidays from work still need to be approved but there’s no reason they shouldn’t.

On my days off, I have continued to play video games, I am now done with “Judgment”, it’s not as gripping as the Yakuza series. I’m currently playing “Avengers”, it’s not good and I’m just finishing it off and selling it, I should’ve done this sooner as it’s not a long game and it’s lost much of its value now. I’ve also acquired every other currently available video game I am interested in, so I’m fully stocked up for the year, ignoring new releases such as “Lost Judgment”, the sequel to “Judgment”, and also the Pokemon remakes, but I’m holding out for a new Switch model.

My motto for now is still to take as much as I can while giving as little as possible in return. For example, it’s possible to purchase video games from certain retailers on ebay, completing them, and then returning them for a refund.

My diet consisted of HUEL last week, this week it is chicken sandwiches, I’m also drinking quite a bit of sugar free soft drinks. I tried drinking coffee, it seems to give me a slight energy boost but I don’t like the taste.
