My first proper day working at Gamestation today. I don't mind it there at all, kinda cool but I hate being a newbie. Not the fact I don't know anyone, it's just I don't know what to do. I like to keep myself busy but I don't know what I am supposed to be doing so most of the time I'm standing round like a imbecile whilst everyone else is doing stuff. I get paranoid that they think I'm lazy or something. It's a different job to what am used to as well so I can't do the things at my old jobs to keep me working constantly. Well at least I'm around things I'm actually interested in this time. But I need more hours, I am scarily skint it's unbelieveable. I get guilt pangs when I buy a comic damnit. At least I can borrow up to £65 worth of games at Gamestation a week now so I don't get tempted to exploit the discounts.
Start playing The Secret of Monkey Island again the other day. Seriously old school. I seriously love Lucas Arts old adventure games, nothing beats them in my eyes, not even Sega Mega Drive games, and they are legendary. I really want to get Sam and Max: Hit the Road, Indiana Jones (original Lucas Arts) and Day of the Tenticle on disc as well, and try out Grim Fandango and The Dig. The seem freakin' sweet, but they don't have them at Gamestation :'(
I'm really wanting loads of DVDs (and cartoon tees but thats another story) at the mo. Particularly a Looney Tunes boxset at this time. I've got a craving for some real old school animation. I just got a Goofy and Donald DVD yesturday which I really shouldn't. I don't really have any Disney or WB shorts though and I really fancy watching some. I've only got newer WB shows and Hanna-Barbera. I hate being poor.
Anyway I can't believe I have to have my Northern audition on Thursday. I only found out the otherday and I have no solo AND I'm not physically and mentally ready. I think I might cry cos I know I won't get in but I want it so bad it hurts. I'm having to rent out Holisica for a few hours (more money down the pan, but it's lucky I've even got some space) to work on my solo, but I'm not ready and this really is my last chance. It's going to be lost.
