Today, I have turned the age of 20. Before my birthday, I had considered what an achievement it had been to reach this certain age. I certainly feel much more of an adult now.
As I had school today, I treated myself at lunch by purchasing a tuna melt sandwitch with onion tangelers and a root beer float. For a birthday gift for myself, I also took a trip down to a local Game Repair store (which was deemed to be the best retro game-selling store as it had the TurboGrafx-16 and some of its games on display) to purchase a game. I considered, as I wanted to get another one for some time, to purchase a Sega Genesis Model 2, but thinking of the great amount of cost it would be to purchase the unit along with the other components such as television connectors and controllers, that would have lead up to a possibly large price that I would have to pay (the console itself is sold at $25), so I had left it to be a last-resort plan. I also planned to either buy a TurboGrafx-16 or PlayStation title, but seeing in the store that the former's games were not being sold on the shelves, I thought that they currently didn't have any in stock (but I probably should have asked about them to the store employees in case they have them hidden in the back storage, but I had forgotten to
). Looking through the PlayStation games (which consisted greatly of racing games), I had narrowed down my choices to either Resident Evil: Director's Cut or Destruction Derby 2. Resident Evil: Director's Cut, as a game I was interested to have, costed $15 including the case and manual, and Destruction Derby 2, a game that I would also like to have the prequel to, had only cost $3 only with the instruction booklet. With some tough decision-making, I had decided to buy Destruction Derby 2, as I figured I can always come back in the future when I had the opportunity to spend more money once I obtain enough (I did recieve plenty of $20 bills over the holidays, but I as saving them for purchases of modern video games bought in retail stores with coupons and gifts cards, like I had done so Monday by going to Best Buy using Reward Zone coupons to buy WarioLand: Shake It! and Kirby Super Star Ultra with).
I had also uploaded a video of
for my birthday. My father and I are also planning to see a movie and eat at the Red Rock hotel's buffet to celebrate next Monday since we are both off.
