Becoming more sociable?

I've been meeting loads of new people recently, whether that be in real life or via the internet.

I've also been on Facebook and Twitter and MSN and even justin.tv more than usual; socialising with people that I could consider as friends. You could say that spending time on Facebook and social networking sites can actually make you more sociable. Sounds obvious but a lot of people avoid Facebook, for whatever reason.

What else has been happening in my world? A bit of story-writing and drawing for College, along with messing about on Photoshop. I even edited a picture of myself and put a Mario Cap on my head; I don't know why to be honest. It didn't take me long so it's not that bad. :P

Oh, nearly forgot. I played Persona 4 on Orenji TV last night, it was really good fun. Most of the battles were between my team of three, and one or two enemies so the battles weren't too difficult. I say that, but I struggled a few times.

At one point I got ambushed by 5 "Magic Hands" or as Nathan called them, "Glovers". Here's a picture>>

I managed to narrowly defeat the "Glovers" but then encountered a sub-boss and my team got completely destroyed. :(

I had to start the game from the previous save point, which was about an hour or two prior to the sub-boss, so it wasn't that bad.

My failed attempt did spark a conversation between myself and my viewers though, about how I would be able to beat the sub-boss next time. We all decided that it would be best if I spent less time on the game developing social links (which improve some minor stats) and more time battling and earning EXP.

So what's the moral of the story? Socialise more? Socialise less? In this case, it depends if the socialising in question is in real life or in a game. Too much socialising in a game is hardly ever beneficial if you want to beat the game. Using good old COD as an example, if you spend most of your time sitting in the corner with a team-mate talking about leekspin or something ridiculous like that, you're just likely to get shot in the face. Then teabagged by some pervy 12 year old.

But in the real world, socialising is very important.
