Hey hey, I'm Kastom.

I don't like talking about myself, so, uh...yeah. lol. I'm a major gamer, I read a lot of books (physics, math, philosophy, fantasy), watch and read some anime, and spend the rest of my time being annoyed at gravity for restricting me to being able to do only one front flip at a time.

I've posted a few of the articles/essays I've written, so if you're ever interested in reading anything that I have thought about or researched, check out my articles world, Kastom's Thoughts.

And the essentials:

Kastom's Bio:

Birth date: September 10, 1989
Sex: Male
Real Name: Tomas (Tom)
Living: Ontario, Canada
Occupation: University of Waterloo Undergraduate Physics Major

And I leave you with a quote from Adam which sums me up well:
"Kastom is very smart and wise, but sometimes he acts like a n00blet..."

Sorry

Hey hey,

I've been feeling quite rather out of sorts these past few days/weeks/months. I don't know what it is exactly, but I do have my ideas. I just feel like I've been too bored/haven't had enough to keep my mind busy, and as such, I've been overthinking myself, and various other life things. Gah it's frustrating. Like, I can think of several instances in the past while where I've said things and then immediately been like, "Why did I say that? That's not at all like me."

So basically, if I've said anything that seemed odd, mean, or out of character, I apologize. I'm just not feeling that great. It's been a hard time these past few months of co-op. I just feel like I'm stagnating and it's pretty much the worst feeling ever.

So anyways, just thought I'd mention.

Also, once I finally get back to Uni, I really would not at all be surprised if I take a break from this place. I'm just starting to resent it for some reason, and maybe it's just because of the situation I'm in, but I feel like I'm taking it all out on you guys, and it's making me feel terrible. I would stop now, but I need the chat room too much. It's what gets me through the days at work, no joke.

So if I have, or do say anything in the next month, I deeply apologize for it. I'm just really going through one of the toughest times in my life right now (and it's very difficult to explain why it is such exactly) and I am not handling it particularly well.

Feeling good to write it out, but hoping that will not end up regretting telling anyone,

My Legs Hurt

Hey hey,

So just got back from a short bike ride. And yeah, it's just above freezing temperature, raining, and it's rather windy. But man, it was great. Knew I wasn't going to be going for very long because of the weather, so I just sprinted hard the entire way there and back. My legs are so weak now. XD

I know some people would say I'm crazy, but man, I just like to keep exercising. I don't understand people that don't get much exercise, and then have terrible eating diets. That's just so unhealthy. I like my body, so I take care of it. I just don't understand some people. Sure it's hard, but you gotta make the effort! Stay healthy!

Totally full of adrenaline right now,

Just to explain

Hey hey,

So I wrote a short article/response on my feelings about the Sony "Move"; their new motion controller.

I just want to explain why I wrote in the way I did. Sometimes I find it amusing to write in that sort of dirty, jackass kind of way. I like the people who can write like that. I find it pretty funny.

But at the same time I feel kinda embarrassed, because I don't generally like to seem like that type of person. Basically I just don't want people thinking that I am always that type of person like I wrote in my article. XD

Also, I used the line "Unending Rant" in the title, because I'm really thinking about doing weekly rant things on gaming. Over the past few months I've been having ideas all the time for short rants on things in the gaming community, but I never really wrote any of it. I thought it might be fun.

Whatever the case, I did that so that I could kinda try to force myself to keep writing these. *laughs*

Looking forward to the weekend,

A little test...

Hey hey,

Since I have the chat room on in the background all day when I'm at work, I realized last week that I could do something cool. Here's the only two days worth of data I have.

Also note that the numbers are singular. i.e. I took them only at the change of the hour (at 10:00 I check and there are 10 people, therefore 10.).

What do you guys think?

Wondering if Adam has something to track this built in,
