Of Being Twenty-Six And Sickness

I've just realized I'm 26. I turned 26 a long while ago but it has now hit me. I'm really immature and insensitive. I think I have to start acting my age.

I've also realized that I'm always sick with one ailment after another. Usually with a few weeks respite in between. Last year I had irritable bowel syndrome and cough and colds. This year it was chickenpox, a six month bout with cough and colds and now after a month of committed excercise it's back to colds. I don't know why my immune system is so weak but from here on I'm fighting back! RAAAAAAARGH!

Burning Wii Backup Discs

I am making this post for future Wii burners everywhere. Use DVD-Rs. That's 'minus' R.

I don't want to tell you how many DVD+Rs I've wasted and the number of hours downloading an English version of Wii Sports. The original Wii Sports that came with my Wii was in Taiwanese or some such. I had to go to extra lengths just to play it and when I did I had to figure out what those Chinese/Taiwanese/Japanese characters meant. Wii Sports isn't the most seeded game out there because it's usually packaged with the console so it took a long while to download. But it's all worth it! I can now understand those onscreen instructions and even gauge my Wii fitness age. The world is mine! Bwahahah-hurgh ack.
