Quitting Monthly Comics

Well, not immediately. I’m starting to really get serious with managing my finances and getting rid of things I don’t really need in my life right now. First on the chopping block: Buying Php1,000 worth (on average) of comics every week.

I currently follow around a dozen monthly titles and around a dozen mini-series. Plus, I get special issues related to the titles I follow. That puts me at an average of 6 comics per week. For someone who earns decent but not spectacular money and is trying to save up because he’s planning to move out (again) soon, this hobby is starting to hurt. Something’s gotta give. Hence I’ll be slowly getting rid of monthly comics in the coming weeks.

Face Rockery

I’m suffering from a weird face thingie right now, but I’m not in the mood to talk about it in detail since I’m just starting to recover. I’m hoping to fully recover from this stupid thingie ASAP. Although this thingie has been the most unpleasant and most uncomfortable shit that has happened to me since… forever, something good came out of it.

See, when this thingie started, I became more anti-social than usual. For the last several days, it was just one big home-office-home cycle for me. Even online, I’m always not in the mood to talk to people, so most of the time, I’m off YM and Twitter. This gave me more time to do other stuff like working and putting up a new blog. Yes, you got me. The bottom line of this post is to tell you that I have a new blog.

This new blog is called Face Rockery (http://facerockery.bigbaddie.com). It’s a niche blog where I talk about my mistress: comic books and all things related to sequential art. I also yak about other forms of pop culture once in a while. I already tried this whole niche blog shit before, but I ended up quitting it. This time, I’m in it for the long haul.
