A New Era

I once again went on hiatus throughout the summer months thanks largely in part to my obsession with baseball. About a month and a half ago I got back into more gaming and subsequently more long nights chasing achievements. I've now slowly eased into both putting some points up along with knocking out a few completions as well. Finding a balance will be key for me in progressing at a solid clip in the new year.

Speaking of which, now that the new year is quickly approaching I am considering a number of new years resolutions that I plan on following through on for a change. Aside from the gamerscore goals I will be making in the next few days I am going to make a very serious commitment to following a posting schedule here on my blog. Also, I plan on unveiling a podcast in the new year that will focus largely on achievements and "gamerscore culture." I don't want to get too far into details on this post as they have not yet been fully resolved, but I promise that if you have an interest in gamerscore and the ongoing grind that it can sometimes be, it will be a must listen.

Another component of this blog that will be focused on more in the new year is the implementation of music. I plan on having a song in every post I make in the new year that will somehow tie into that post. It may be linked to the mood of the post or it might be directly linked to the content of the post itself. Hopefully through the music I use on the blog I will be able to make a greater connection with readers and potentially introduce them to bands and genres of music they may not have explored. I play a lot of piano and music is something that is an important part of my life so I want to not only communicate that with readers, but also share some music I love with them.

For now that will be all. Expect a few more post to come before the end of 2010, however I will not be doing any gaming as I am on holidays in Palm Desert and have no Xbox. I know in the past I have eventually drifted away from this blog and I promise that this time will be different. Despite having a fairly small readership I value every single reader I have and would like to provide content that is compelling and something I can be proud of. Stay tuned as the new year is the beginning of a new decade and a new era on this blog.
