Hello World #6

Good Morning! (Well it's 1:14am here anyway). 

It's been a good couple of years, since I've actually posted on my blog. I have clearly gone through phases of posting, leaving it for a year, posting, leaving it for a year etc. 

The truth is, I found myself in a place where absolutely EVERYTHING took over, even the little things, motivations were lost, life went downhill, then went uphill. I've been pondering over the past few days about what to write or say, should I just post something about a game, or a Movie Review and then I thought, I'd just be honest. 

I realised that writing this blog was one of my escapes and possibly one of the reasons as to why I'd been feeling a little down (there's the honesty thing there again). 

I don't want to alienate my audience (I'm not talking thousands of people), but just the select few of you who keep coming back to read my posts, so if this is too heavy, or if any of my comments get too heavy, I understand, I want this to be a fun place, where I can let my creativity and thoughts just flow, I know this all sounds really cheesy and probably really cliche, I'm under no illusion, I know I'm not some famous blogger, I'm just a humble person with a passion for gaming, movies and laughs. 

So keep an eye, and thanks for those of you who have been keeping the blog alive, just by coming in every now and again, it's nice to see that posts are still getting looked at, even after 2 years. 

A huge blog revamp is in order, and like I say, I'm going to be using this as an escape, it can be my time away from studying and working ... a lifeline. 

Thanks again for the support! 

Dylan :D 

Hello World #5

So thing's with work didn't turn out as expected. I guess dealing with rejection is something I really struggle with, who knew? It's a learning curve to say the least, and all I can do is move onward and upwards... No looking back, keep focused, keep strong!

I'm going to be getting back into the swing of normal blogging soon, starting with a new (well relatively new) movie review which is coming to you tomorrow, any +1's, comments and shares would be greatly appreciated.

😄😄😄😄

Hello World #3...

Hellooooo! I am so so sorry that it has been 3 months since I posted my last blog post, I had planned on writing a few posts and scheduling them, but unfortunately real life has taken over, and it's just been work, work and more work!

When I'm not at work I am always too tired and lack motivation to do anything other than wind down and go to bed! But I come to you with a promise, I will be writing posts and I will be scheduling posts on a more frequent basis, because I do love to blog...

I don't care if anyone reads my blog or not really (Although it is a huge bonus) it's my blog and it's my own little world and my escape when things get a little tough, or when life gets way too hectic...

So here's a list of what I'm going to do from now one, so expect to be amazed :D

Funday Monday 
So from now on until kingdom come, I will be posting either a funny picture, story, poem or joke to brighten your day, I'm going to try and stick to the gaming/geeky/entertainment theme but I cannot promise this, it might just be a random thing that I find funny, because who doesn't need a little uplift on a Monday?

Midweek Movie Review
I do like to review movies, so expect a mid-week movie review from now on (Either Wednesday or Thursday) this could be of a movie that I've already seen, or a movie I might watch specifically, I do like to put my own spin on reviews, and explain the movie how I see it, and always put a little helpful rating on there for you all as well :)

Loot Crate Unboxing
Every month as soon as the tiny (but packed) black box of goodies comes through the door a picture will shortly follow to show what the glorious contents are, the boxes do come from America so there might be a slight delay, but nobody likes spoilers anyway so don't look elsewhere :P

Gaming/Social Gaming
You can definitely expect some more posts with regards to Call of Duty, and other games I have started playing, I wouldn't dream of reviewing them because I would be there forever, but I will post achievements, funny and interesting stories.

And a lot lot more, I definitely promise that I will be here more often :)

So stick around, we've got a lot to catch up on!

Dweelan Out!

Hello World #2...

Hello all, I know I've been super super quiet, why have I started reading 'Super Super quiet' in an American accent? I'm not even American!

So I started my new job, and I'm now 2 weeks into it, it's early days, but I'm actually really enjoying it, I've spent almost 5 years in the energy industry, and now to move into the financial services industry is definitely something new and exciting, and something I'm genuinely interested in!

It's certainly a lot stricter though, if I make a mistake or do something wrong, it's not just a case of loosing my job, I could be banned from working in the Financial services industry for life, now there's a thought.

I've also met some great people, and get on really well with everyone at the new workplace, I'm not finding it a chore to go to work, I get up and quite content with a routine, and  a great job to go to, which also pays a lot better than the previous one too :P

On another note, my car is poorly it's squeaking a lot, needs some new brake pads, it also needs a new headlight because the indicator is dodgy, and it needs other bits and bobs done to it as well to make it all pretty and nice :P

On one final note, I've just watched the reveal trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3!!! It's fricken amazing, that might be the tipping point in me buying an Xbox One, but I'm hoping that I can still play it on the old 360 for now, money is tight ya know!

 I haven't really played AW much I've grown a bit bored to be very honest, but I'm sure i'll get back onto it soon!

Anyway, that's all folks thanks for listening again!! :)

Hello World #1...

So I was inspired recently by a fellow blogger/friend a 'bliend' to post something a bit more from the heart every so often, to give you an insight into my life and what's happening, and why I'm doing this...

I started this blog for a number of reasons, one because my friends have blogs too, both of which are really cool, and I liked the idea of having a hobby and something to write about, because I do love to rant and write, even if I don't have the best grammar or spelling, it's nice to have somewhere to put down my thoughts, and just escape for a little bit.

I found out not so long ago that my current employer will not be renewing my contract, and my last day of employment was 31/03/2015, they let me leave early, so I could find alternative employment, even know I haven't really shown it, this really put me in a bit of a bad spot, sounds daft but the blog really really helped with that, which is why there was pretty much me posting non-stop LOL!

I've now found a new job and I start next Monday on the 13th April and to be frank I'm absolutely shitting myself, I lack in self confidence which is my main issue, but other than that I'm just generally scared of starting a new job with new people, it takes a lot for me to 'let someone in' even though I'm getting better at it :)

So I just wanted to share a little bit of a personal story, aside from my new job, I have also decided to become an Avon Representative again, do I like make-up and perfumes and stuff? Ermmm... NO! It's just something to fill the gap in my CV, and earns me a little bit of pocket money on the side, always like to keep busy from a job perspective, wouldn't like to have to go and 'sign on' every two weeks, can't be dealing with that LOL...

My aspirations for the rest of the year, is/are to start our YouTube channel (3wee) I think that's what we're calling it, I hope they are happy with that :P

To clear some debts, go on holiday and buy a new car, maybe not all of those will be possible but small steps eh?

There is always someone worse off than you in this world, I'm lucky I've got some amazing friends, and family, some of them don't really know this, but without them I don't think I would be the person I am today, I'm a 'Bottler' and it's not often I'll go soppy on you!

Thanks for reading!
