A decent enough week

[illusion_is_mine]

 This week was pretty good.  I had a coworker pull me to the side yesterday, and tell me that I had a beautiful voice, and that I seem to be more outgoing lately.  She said that it seemed like I had a lot to say about different things, and I seemed to know what I was talking about.  She also mentioned that I should think about doing some sort of podcasting or something where I talk about things that interest me in a broadcasting type form.  I was really surprised when she told me that.  Truth be told I have felt myself going through some personal growth, and a bit of a transformation lately.  Maybe it's because I'm getting older, and I'm not too certain, but it was good to hear somebody say something good about me.  It's something that has crossed my mind lately actually.

That being said I've been trying to steer clear of negativity, and negative people lately.  So yeah I guess I am going through a sort of transformation.  

I think what's been helping me is listening to different podcast that are very positive, helpful in giving me a different perspective on things. I believe you can learn a lot from people by listening to their experiences, and what they have to say.  

As for music stuff I bought the new Kittie documentary, and it was really interesting.  I think it's unfortunate what they had to put up with in the music industry because they were female musicians.  It was a band I was really into in high school, and it was really insightful to see all the hardships they went through as a band throughout the years.   

On to fandom things so I can fangirl about this.  Sega announced they're re-releasing an HD version of Shenmue 1, and 2 for the PS4, XB1, and PC!  They also announced a bunch of classic Sega titles coming to the Nintendo Switch.  They also mentioned as possibly porting over some Dreamcast, and Sega Saturn games to the Switch!  I'm super hype about this.  I almost bought a Sega Saturn back in the day, but ended up getting a Playstation.  I feel like there are a ton of the Saturn, and Dreamcast titles I missed out on.  I had a Sega Genesis as a kid so this is a total win for me.  I feel like there were a ton of Sega titles in general that I missed out on in the past.  So this is really awesome news.

Yay for positive change! I agree about trying to stay clear of negativity, I've been doing that too (while is part of the reason I'm STILL not really around twitter anymore).

I was always a Nintendo kid, but I still was really intrigued by Sega, especially their CD technology. Borrowed my Aunt's Sega CD for a while back in middle school, always dreamed of having a Saturn, and then was a total Dreamcast fanboy in high school. I really, really hope we get Saturn and Dreamcast games down the line. What I would give to play Skies of Arcadia or Nights into Dreams on my Switch. WHAT I WOULD GIVE.

I do still go on twitter, but that's probably the only social media I use these days. Even when I do use it I don't stay on there for any length of time. Yeah, it is really great to have a positive outlook on things.

I had a Sega Genesis, and I almost got a Saturn, but ended up getting the Playstation instead. I wanted the Saturn mainly to play Nights, because I thought it looked so cool at the time. It would be awesome if we got Saturn and Dreamcast games in the future for the Switch. I'm looking forward to the new releases. :)

That's great to hear about your personal growth and that's awesome that other people see it as well.

I've been listening to podcasts a lot lately too. They're more music and pop culture related, but they've had some interviews as well and like you said it can be really fascinating to listen to people's experiences.

I want to watch that Kittie documentary. I don't know much about them aside from their first couple albums and following Fallon on Twitter but I've heard nothing but good things about it.

Yeah, I'm glad to see that people are noticing it too.

I really enjoy listening to people's life stories. I feel like everyone has a story, and I think you can learn a lot from people and their experiences.

I was really into Kittie in high-school, and they got famous when they were teenagers literally over night. It's a very good documentary. I think you'll enjoy it. :)
