An Introduction

I have never been very good at introducing myself.  A whole post and I didn’t tell you my name or even say hello.  My name is Sam, but you can call me Hambo, everyone else does.  I am a twenty-three year old girl from Brisbane, Australia.  (I say girl because I can’t bear to call myself a ‘woman’.  By admitting that I am a woman I would be opening the floodgates for responsibility and all other kinds of adult problems.  I already have to pay bills, work, study and clean… god knows what other adult things lurk in the shadows waiting for me to be deemed a competent adult.  Ooops, off topic.)

Getting back to the main issue: me.  I have a boyfriend who is a velociraptor on the scale of awesome.  We have been together for 4.5 years and we are still going strong.  We live in a tiny apartment just outside the city in Brisbane and I can’t wait until we can buy a place of our own.   Actually, we pretty much can’t wait to get out.  Period.  Seriously, it’s like a deathtrap.

I used to have a well formed life with well developed responsibilities.  I used to be much more social and an active member of my community.  That was before I discovered CoD.  I must admit, I am a video game addict.  I grew up playing them with my Dad and, now that I am making my own money, I have acquired a pretty good collection of games.  But none are as addictive as Call of Duty: Black Ops.  I am also a major nerd and love sci-fi and all manner of nerdy books and movies.  I have a feeling that a lot of my entries will be based around video games and sci-fi… So like it or lump it.

I think that is all I am going to tell you for now, I need people to have a reason to come back again! Hopefully this will flourish into a well visited blog and I will become famous and rich.  But I am pretty sure that’s what most people are hoping for when they start a blog, so I guess I will settle for a couple of people who come and read my posts through to the end.
