It's been awhile.

For those of you that are familiar with this blog, you might expect alot of personal things to read about me. Take note however that after reading the posts that were posted over 3 years ago. I can happily say I'm no longer anything like I used to be. No longer emotional and obsessed with people who didn't feel the same way, no longer hating my life and complaining about small, trivial things that have no real effect on my life. What changed you ask? Plenty.

For starters I no longer date or associate myself with my ex girlfriend Heather. It ended how it was fated to end, and that's perfectly fine between the two of us, we have no animosity between us, but we don't have any strong emotions tying us to be friends. I am however dating someone new and she has made my life the best Ive ever had it. Alison is the piece that I'm missing when I'm alone. She's the other part of my insanity to make life complete, and even tho we have our ups and downs, I feel that we will never part ways. Its suffice to say I love the girl, even if I don't show it to the best of my ability.

Now that the emotions are out of the way. I still work in SE Saskatchewan moving oil rigs, Ive did my time and got dirty in the trenches of my company and took piles of shit from management time and time again to find myself finally getting recognition and promotion. I intend to continue climbing the ladder to the top to hopefully someday become someone who is looked up to as a leader.

I have picked up music as a hobby again since the last time I posted, taking an interest in recording, drumming, and guitars again. Forming a solo metalcore project called "Headshot the Hero" (Like it on Facebook) I have pieced together a drumset from all over the world via the Internet shopping, and its a 7/10 kit. I'm proud to have designed and built it myself, but I would sell it if the offer came up. I also have Black Orpheus still on the go, and after the HTH album, I shall go back and make BO come to life. In between that there is a possibility of a Dubstep/Rap project that may or may not take flight. All of these projects will have Facebook and YouTube pages, and if you keep up here you will be linked as developments come up. Quick shout out goes to Luke Jay Knight of Near Ruin (Also Like them on Facebook) as he is helping me co-write the HTH album.

Video games in a big way! Having over 60 titles in my Wii collection and numerous DS titles I have spent a large portion of my last 3 years playing video games, reviewing video games (http://www.byronicgaming.blogspot.ca/) and forging stronger friendships thru video gaming and the industry. Not much else to say except that I am looking forward to continuing my hardcore gaming ways in the future for at least one more generation of consoles.

Still getting tattooed, I no longer fight competitively, still am an Internet junkie, and overall I'm happier.

Not to say I wasn't happy all those years ago with my close friends and ex girlfriend here with me. But I was never happy living paycheque to paycheque, having drama over the Internet, and always angry about my job and living here. In 3 years I have become more mature, intelligent, some would argue colder, but I don't wear emotions on my sleeve like my ex made me. I like to keep things to myself, and people who know me well enough, should know I love them, and how it is. I enjoy music again, video gaming, and being me. I have a girlfriend who accepts these things and supports me in my crazy ways, and I in turn, support and accept her for who she is.

This blog will be littered with probably nothing epic or interesting, but if you got time to kill feel free to peek into what I'm doing. Add me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter @demonicjaye
