More paycheck stuff and other stuff

Got a juicy paycheck for about $180.
Not that bad for all my on-off work throughout the month.
I think it was part of or all of May.
Either way, it's pretty fine.
Not sure if I should buy anything with it.
I got a lot of stuff I want to buy but I'm not sure where to start.
Gotta pre-order a Vita for myself.
Also need a PS3.
Then there's some various video games and DVDs I want.
Oh, and a new computer.
Plus I would like to nab a Dreamcast.
There's also a 16GB Memory Stick Micro for my PSP.
Not sure what to get.
I'm tempted to save up for the computer but I'd probably get, at most, like $400-some for it.
Not sure if it's even worth it then.
A similar case happened for Christmas.
I got $200-something and I realized I wasn't gonna get enough cash for a good computer for a while.
So I ditched it and spent the cash on like games and food.
But I really do want a good computer.
Well, not "good" but adequate enough to run today's games decently.

I've been playing Dungeon Siege (the original) like a boss lately.
Played a bunch of it with my friend a few days ago and a little more yesterday.
Fun as hell.
Kinda mindless but it's just really enjoyable.

There's the biggest filming night of the year, the graduation, coming up on Tuesday.
Unfortunately that's the one day off I have from testing so a bit of a bummer.
But it's actually somewhat fun.
You make some great cash, hang with some cool people, and get some rep with the school.
Kinda pissed that I was passed over for the technical director for that slaggy backstabbing bitch whore that I ranted about a while ago.
She's a class lower than me but apparently she has "more experience" because she took "independent study" on the subject.
Side note, her "independent study" involved her just slacking off like the filthy heathen she is.
Also I get passed over for the fucking druggy hipster shit too because she has titties and was able to get supervising jobs before I did.
(Side note, here's her shitty Youtube channel for proof of her true narcissistic hipsterness and so you can troll her).
Whatever, I get my paycheck and I get to hang out with the cool sector of the TV crew so who cares.

Last day of school is Thursday.
Should be relieving.
Its been a long year and it feels good I guess that it's over.
It's just nice to know it ended, not because it was painful or anything, but because it needed to end on a high note.
Let's hope senior year is good.

:O
They payed you $200 to use DreamWeaver to fix some sites.
That's quite a lot of money especially considering Dreamweaver sucks.
Probably would have been easier to touch up the site by modifying the HTML/CSS/PHP code in Notepad++ rather than using that horrible program, but I digress.
I do envy you, though. I don't have enough money to purchase Zelda: Ocarina of Time, as of now. Hopefully, I manage to get enough before Sunday.

@Guild:
The PS Vita does look nice. I'm gonna wait for a bit more info before planning to purchase it, though. It is tempting, though especially considering it's the same price as the 3DS.
I'm not sure if I should wait for the next-generation consoles or just get a PS3. There are a ton of games I'm missing out on by not having a PS3, though such as Valkyria Chronicles and Ni No Kuni when it gets localized.
 
What's wrong with Dreamweaver? It's really nice to have a live preview of your code versus using N++.

And at least he can use Dreamweaver, and isn't forced to use Expressions like I am at work.
 
just save up a little more Guild .
with $400 , you can get a basic entry PC that would have room for expansion . i'd recommend building it yourself . it would save more money if you concentrate on getting the parts first than software . possibly a Phenom II x4 , 4GB RAM , 500GB HDD , and you will be pretty set . then just get a 5770 and you'll be able to run most games on either med - high settings with it .

put off the graphics card . prioritize it after you have the basic essentials !

    Nah, a hit gives them mad meth powers, but makes them more difficult to control.
