SoRe SorE!
Filed Under Daily
I would really recommend to anyone wanting to exercise these training programs with motion detectors. I am sore from waist to toe! The Kinect motion detector is really sensitive and corrects your moves as soon as you are doing something wrong. It is fun and not annoying at all. I will see if it lasts.
At least now, I am very tempted to get either the new PS4 or the Xbox One that will come out in November: comparison chart. The PS4 seems more powerful however I really enjoy the whole Kinect thing. I might buy both :)! I do not think I will go after the Iphone 5S. It does not look that different from the Iphone 4S and I would rather buy a Samsung galaxy S4 or a newer product from Samsung (cheaper and more powerful).

CoOl SunDay!
Filed Under Daily
I woke up at 10:30 am. It is rare that I sleep that much. I think I was mentally and physically exhausted by all these games. I have not tried the Kinect training yet but will do today!
The old lady on the other side of the street told me that on Friday there was some drama going on in my building. The owners of the place above mine were shouting at the brother and sister from Senegal. There were threats of direct legal actions on the sister’s salary. This will be problematic in the future. I will probably not be around to see the end of this drama.
I mowed the lawn yesterday, perfect timing for the rain yesterday night and today! My lawn looks beautiful and the neighbors envy it. It looks nicely green and it is very dense. I took great care of it.

FuLL KinEct!
Filed Under Daily
I also bought: Nike + Kinect training (39.99 Euros) + Call of Duty MW3 (19.99 Euros) + Rayman origins (19.99 Euros).
I also got the Wii Mini (99.99 Euros) + Super Mario Bros (46 Euros).
Total Summer Spending on high-tech: 637.96 Euros.
I will stop right here I think! I have contributed enough to the economy and I enjoy at the same time what I did.
All I wanted to do is to be the little kid I was and to get whatever I wanted as games.

Portal 2 was the first game, I bought this game after buying the bundle Xbox 360. It was cheap and who would have guessed it was addictive. I am currently on chapter 2 at level 6/22. The first chapter was very addictive! It gives you a headache but you want to solve all the level for unknown reasons!
Fable the Journey was the second game I bought. It is the 4th of a serie of an epic game: Fable! It was cheap and I can play it on Kinect to try out. I do not think it is as good as Fable.

ThAt Hurt!
Filed Under Daily
If people think that playing virtually in front of the screen does not hurt, they are wrong. I am sore everywhere from playing these sport games in front of the Kinect. It was fun!
The old lady stopped shouting at her husband the last 2 days. Someone came and told her she shouted too much and too loud. Funny thing is she also found other things noisy…

SuMMer Spending!
Filed Under Daily
I bought a Xbox 360 / 250 Gb with 3 games for 199 Euros. I am very impressed with the Kinect technology: voice recognition and motion detector. Fun to play with and you can impress people with the motion detector. You can also post your recorded videos online! I am having a headache trying to control this new gadget. I also bought recently an Acer 24′ flat screenfor for 178 Euros. My laptop screen is a bit small and it gave me headaches. Finally, I bought a Seinnheisser 205 headphone for 35 Euros.
Total Summer spending: 412 Euros.
Since I am not going anywhere, why not invest in new technology :)! When I was at the cashier, there was a kid who looked enviously at my Xbox (No no no, It is all MINE!). I wish I still had that look for games! It is a bit different nowadays I have to compare online and look for the best.
Now let’s learn how to dance with Dance central 2! Do not wait for videos of me on Youtube! They will be deleted as soon as they are made!

A WeEk of VacAtioN!
Filed Under Daily
It will just be a relaxing week for me. I am not going anywhere besides spending time shopping/playing/sleeping …answering some emails for work. I actually like my vacations this way. Relaxing!
I do not like being too far away from my computer and I enjoy my everyday routine. Going somewhere means lots of disturbances. I proposed to my little cousins to join them for the weekend. I guess they are busy and it was not a good time. Such is life!

FunnY or NoT fuNny!
Filed Under Daily
So the brother and the sister from Senegal had a noisy visit yesterday from the owners. It appears that they have not paid their rent for 6 months. I thought I was in troubled water with my 2 months late payment. I told this story to one owner living in our building and he was very surprised. He said he would go crazy if something like this happens to him. I told him that life is all about business and there is no easy money. If you decide to invest money in stock options, apartment/house to rent, you have to be prepared to accept the consequences. There is no easy money in life after all. He said so there is nothing owners can do? In fact, they can go to court but it is a long and painful process with no win in the end because most of the time, the person who can not pay his rent does not have money to make any payment. Owners will be told that it is their responsibility to check and to get proper insurance by the judge.
Should we cry on the rich owners who have too much money and who want to make extra for their retirement? Maybe when I will be an owner, I will think about that!
