Ok so for the past 4 months or so, I haven't touched the game. I decided I'd focus more on uni and take a break from poker. Exams finished 3 weeks ago, results came out (I did the same as I've done previous semesters =/ ) and since then I've returned to playing.

Deciding that FTP really is RIGGD, I decided to put $500 on stars and grind up from 25nl to ease my way back in.

I've noticed the games on stars are fairly soft, there are quite a few fish but then there are also quite a few multi-tabling nitty regs. Not only that, but most of the fish don't really get involved in big pots without the nuts. So, while its easy to make money, it takes a lot of diligent grinding and disciplined play to do so.

Here's the graph of my run at 25nl: (Note the first 6k hands I donked around really bad, playing like 28/26 and trying to run stations over...obv failed haha).

So I'll continue grinding, moving up to 50nl next session I play. Holidays only last for 1 more week, but I don't return to uni: I'm doing research in a lab at a hospital for a year. Hopefully it's not too full-on, and I won't have any commitment to it at home, so I can continue playing poker for the coming year.

In non-poker related stuff, I have a long to-do list of games to complete:

On XBox360 I have to finish Lost Odyssey, GTA4, DMD mode on DMC4, Ninja Gaiden 2 (this is fucking hard) and Gears of War.

Also, I'm going to go out and buy a parts for a new computer in a few days. While not finalized, the setup seems to be:

Core2Duo 8500
ATI Radeon 4850/4870 (undecided on which card to get yet)
4gig DDR2 ram
Appropriate case and PSU
22" LCD

My friend made a detailed list of the exact parts and costs, it should be$1.2 - $1.4k Australian dollars. And ready to kick ass in SC2 at max settings (hopefully) when it finally comes out.

Finally, some funny youtube videos which bag creationists (if you are a creationist, lol @ you)

There's over 20 videos in this series, but these 3 are amongst the funniest. I suggest you listen while you grind, it's good entertainment and tilt relief (unless of course you're a creationist, but in that case you probably think poker is all about luck and suck).
