My name is Benjamin. I come from the UK (although I was born in New Zealand) and I have been described as having a ginger personality. Whatever that means. I assume they're referring to my hair and my Ronald Weasley nature. Aside from that, I'm the only male blogger worth knowing.

You can thank Amber for that lovely introduction, but you deserve much more than just a small paragraph showing my nutty nature, therefore if you do wish to find out more, please visit the

Finding that balance

This might not be the most earth shattering news to you, and I wouldn’t be at all surprised to hear that you have all thought the same thing. I was lying in bed last night, and began to wonder where my life is heading.

Having finished college for good on Friday, albeit except the 3 exams I have left, I have been shifted from trying to find the right balance between school work, work and Tibia; to now thinking about what I should be doing for the next 3-4 months. I am working a lot recently to try and get some money behind me before going to University on September 1st (trying to stay debt free is going to be interesting), and then I am playing Tibia all the rest of the time. Most people say it is hard to find a balance between work and home, family and friends, etc and I finally understand them.

Whilst the working and playing Tibia all the time is thrilling, I feel like I am not balanced. I feel something missing, and I also feel that it is my yearning to get back into the world wide web, but will it want me back? If Jem were reading this, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she says I am turning emo, as she has pointed out on many occasion before.

I also thought about taking up the Piano again, just because I think that the piano part of Boston by Augustana is so inspiring and beautiful. That is saying something considering how much I detested the piano when doing my GCSE in Music.

Me, accuse someone of turning emo? I shudder at the thought. Stop spreading these rumours Ben! :p

Just remember that you’ve got a whole shitload of life ahead of you. Who cares if you’re not balancing life right now? You can blog, or play the piano or whatever at any point. Unless you die, of course.. but then you’re dead so it doesn’t matter anyway!

Lawl @ Jem. :P

I know what you mean about feeling unbalanced. It happens to me whenever I’m in a “lull” of sorts, with nothing much to do. Once you find something though, you’ll definitely feel better. :)

And why wouldn’t the interwebz want you back?! Come back plz! :D

Being emo is the root of all exsistance for online gaming. I see it every day. So I would say that you are not being emo at all in any way.
