In a couple of weeks, I'm heading back to university to return to my environmental science degree. I really wanted to do Climate Change, but there weren't enough students so this is the next best thing for now.
I've also been playing my Xbox 360 games over the last few weeks. The reason for this has been to finish unlocking the achievements on these games as on 21st December 2021 the servers on the legacy titles of Halo will shut down. This means that matchmaking, filesharing and challenges for some of the games will no longer function and that means certain achievements will no longer be obtainable.
Here is the video describing it in detail.

I know it's a little late to the news but better late than never. To help me with the achievements I've joined a discord group dedicated to the completion of the achievements in a time when the servers are sparsely populated and getting them now would be through luck if you did this on your own. This youtube channel also shows you how to complete each of the achievements.
It won't just be Halo either, Rockstar has announced shutting down servers for some of their games on December 16th.
I've also been into a few issues with my parents but I won't go into details. Suffice to say that they still think me trying to earn money online isn't worth it. It hurts but there must be a way to sort something out.
I don't want to think it's impossible but who knows.
It gets worse. Now my timetable is released and it's clear that all the weekdays are taken up with lectures of various periods of time. This means that my road sweeper job has to adapt to this. My boss will have to recruit other people to do my work as well. I don't mind as long as there is something to sweep up and clear up during my 8 hours, that's fine by me, just as long as I don't have to do it in pitch black. The worst possible scenario is to let go of my carers and that's going to be hard but I guess it was inevitable in retrospect.
Lastly, I've been taking up an exercise program that gave me a six-week challenge to help transform my body and I have to say, it's worked! I've lost quite a bit of body fat and gained muscle in the process. I would love to recommend it. Trouble is, my market is sort of restricted to my local area, so tall order to get people to join.
I hope to get my timetable reorganised to help myself cope but I know that sooner or later I will not be able to do stuff I've been used to doing over the last few months.
