Gaining Weight

1 Gallon of Milk a Day

As I am problematic about my body weight (because I'm skinny forever), I decided to search the net for some tips on how to gain weight for people having trouble gaining anything. I know that I eat a lot but I just can't gain any weight no matter how many meals I eat. I thought that I should just give up on the idea and accepted that I would be skinny for the rest of my life. 

I stumbled onto this site saying that I should drink 1 gallon or approximately 4 liters of milk a day. For me, 1 liter is a lot already so I thought it would be impossible to drink 4 liters of milk in a day. It almost literally says that I should make milk my "water" or main liquid to drink.

As I read through the article, this type of technique called GOMAD (1 Gallon of Milk a Day) is really suited for hard gainers like me. I decided to give it a try. It also says that drinking 4 liters of milk in a day can be difficult for people who eat less than they think and should follow the things listed per week for their stomachs to adjust. Then after 1 to 2 months, the person who followed the steps everyday should gain almost 50 lbs. After attaining the "ideal" weight, he/she can stop GOMAD.

2013 SAO Calendar

I have found this awesome calendar for next year. :))

Christmas Noon

I recently discovered an emulator for PS2 called pcsx2. Since I haven't had any gaming console when I was a child, this is the only time that I could play the games I want on PS2. Today is Christmas and our family already attended the mass so this day would be just free time. To avoid getting extremely bored, I decided to play the famous Final Fantasy X. It's my second time starting the game all over again because I lost my save data when I formatted my computer. I played for four hours straight and it would be my best record for this year. 4 hours playing a single game. I think I'm getting old playing video games because I can recall that when I was in high school, I could play a single game in more than 4 hours. If I had to take a break, it would only be for peeing and eating. Oh those wonderful times. I expected that I would get fat for a routine like that but I didn't. I assumed that I could be a hardgainer. I usually follow a walkthrough when playing a video game so that I could unlock all there is to unlock in the game without going back and forth. I also think that having multiple playthroughs would be a super waste of time so I finish a game a soon as possible. So for FFX, I follow the guide in this website. After 4 hours of playing I have only finished the part of the blitzball opening season tourney. I also plan to finish all other games as they have been piling up in the last 2 years. I hope I can finish them even if I'm busy with schoolwork. :)
