		<description><![CDATA[I am obsessive. I am a perfectionist. But most of the energy has been sucked into the almost endless time spiral of video game simulations.

		<description><![CDATA[I recently purchased Gran Turismo 5 due to my newly found fandom of Top Gear, an interest to learn how to drive manual, and the fact that Burnout Paradise is good for learning how to violently crash a car but not actually how to drive a car in any proper way.
