I have lost a good 10 Lbs with all the evaluations and hoops I need to jump through to get the Personal Trainer job! I guess they want us to be fit!! I am almost done with all these evaluations they ask and now i have to take 1/2 day of compressed theory courses and I should have a job! YAY
The good thing about being a personal trainer is that eventually when you grow your client base you can make your own schedule.

Also, my CEILING IS LEAKING!! I called the landlord, no answer. I called the emergency number, no answer, I called the secretary of the building, she is in new york and no answer! So i guess i am going to RONA to get some duct tape and let them figure out the mess. So far the leak is maintained... but i have a feeling its accumulating and will cause more damages. Either way they were warned about this 2 weeks ago.

In the gaming news Skyforge launched its beta. That's a lot of fun. I mean, a game where you are an immortal trying to achieve godhood. and there is no cap on how powerful you can get. Imagine a game like Guild Wars 2 or World of Warcraft where there is no level cap; you can be lvl 1 million if you play long enough. they want you to be OP, its how the game is developed.

In Guild Wars 2 I am trying to finish my living story... I know I know I am INCREDIBLY BEHIND! but better late than never right?

On other sadder news, I finally canceled my EvE Online account. I finally was able to break free of the chains of a game that I was subscribed to but never had time to play. This means I have 15$ per month extra to spend in my budget YAY!!!!

Lastly I gave Archage a second chance. I heard they patched the problems and It is actually playable now. First of all it took me 30 minutes to download and 4 HOURS TO INSTALL!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!. I played for 4 hours and I didn't see a single player, there is this stutter when it loads the world objects and it is more P2W more than ever. if you are not a patron then there is no point in playing at all. I understand they need to  make money, but they are going about it the wrong way. I see this game shutting it's doors soonish.

Job Update

My everything HURTS!!!!! I should not have pushed myself that hard yesterday during the job training evaluation. my body composition is not made for this kind of fitness activity. I lift weights and then put them back down. I don't run for miles on end, I'm to heavy for this. I have to do this again on Saturday Morning... I will pace myself this time and not go all out for the warm up and then die because my heart exploded.


Gaming and Streaming

Elite Dangerous. With the announcements of No Man's Sky where you can fly to unlimited planets land on them and then survive the wild life and explore underwater and the current features in Star Citizen where you can walk around the ship hangar and around your (larger) ships Elite Dangerous will need to up its game. The only thing that they got going for them is that they have already launched and they have a solid core base game. But if either game launches before Elite implements walking in stations-planets/ landing on planets/ boarding ships even a frst person shooter feature Frontier Games will loose most if not all its players. Already with powerplay in action, players are leaving the game in large numbers.

Twitch also faces the same problem. You have YouTube Gaming launching this summer and Hitbox that is taking up steam. Youtube and Hitbox have solid infrastructure. Currently Twitch is having serious buffering problems, server problems for low viewers count. If twitch wants to keep in the competition, they need to up their game, Java video output is no longer enough. They need to get onto HTML 5 or increase their server power.

I think I might be making the switch to HitBox or Youtube Gaming. I am ok starting over again gaining more followers/subs in the other channels. It's too bad because there are features like follower announcements and IRC chat and admin bots.

Games

Elite Dangerous
I did an almost 4 hour stream last night of Elite Dangerous and I am getting pro at Docking in stations. Even better at docking without getting scanned/seen by authorities. perfect for smuggling slaves and contraband.

Also I am learning how to become a ghost ship. completely disappear from scanners. My ship is rigged specifically for that. The Cobra is the ideal Smuggling ship

Job Update

So tonight is my first session with the head coach to "live the experience". I need to follow 2 of those sessions before I need to shadow the trainers 3x. I feel a bit out of shape so I don't know how that will go. On a good side, I have all the equipment necessary.

Elite Dangerous

Yesterday I just played Elite Dangerous. I think I will be playing that for a while. Including in tonight's stream.

This was my last flight with the Viper, I totally meant to do that before I upgraded to the Cobra

I love my new Cobra. It feels sluggish. but awesome how it can fly longer distances than my Viper used to. As a smuggler the Cobra is the best ship for the job when it comes to agility/speed and tank/pewpew power. You need to quickly sneak into the stations before getting scanned with contraband in your cargo.

Guild Wars 2

Nothing much to say, I log in to claim my chest and logged out

Rise of the Incarnates

I downloaded it into my steam library... it's still there. I need to check it out at some point tonight.

Job!

I finally may have found a job, after almost 2 months of searching. The potential Job would be at Orange Theory Fitness. I still need participate in 2 sessions, shadow the head trainer for 3 sessions and follow a 1/2 day theory course. All this starts tomorrow. Having said that I will start my stream much later (closer to 8:30pm EDT).

Elite: Dangerous

I started yesterday the smuggling career in the game. Transporting Slaves and other illicit materials from one system to another. I tried to buy them from systems where things were legal and transporting them to other systems where they are illegal, that gave me a grand profit of 1000-2500 credits... Instead I started running missions for Criminal Organizations, and even Political Leaders wanting me to transport "medicine" to neighboring systems in the galaxy. Needless to say, i now upgraded to a Cobra Mk III and I have made my first million credits in the game.

Guild Wars 2

I have finally reached my 6000AP mark allowing me to get the radiant mantle. Now I have the full Archangel look. Also I am thinking of changing the stats on my ranger and remove toughness precision and add in power and vitality, all while keeping the Condition Damage. Also, I would go back to the Long Sword/Short Bow instead of the Sword-Dagger/Short Bow combo. I might also change the looks of my characters, Making my Ranger more druid looking with a hood, browns and blacks and my Mesmer be the angelic one. more fitting I think. I might need to get more transmutation charges at some point.
