How's everyone doing?

[MinatoArisato]

What have you been up to lately? how's life etc? pursuing anything new? succumbing to that soul crushing depression and loneliness? Tell me about your day.

I haven't done much of note lately, I went to my parents place for christmas. Not to celebrate mind you, but to take care of dogs for 2 weeks. My mom does dog boarding on the side you see. At one point I had 14 dogs at once in my care. Leaves barely any time for sleeping weh.

In another recent attempt to make something of myself I downloaded a C++ programming book by that famous fellow who made C++ thinking I'll learn something useful. This thing ">>" has been making that near impossible. I'm thinking of just using flash or one of the other gamedev utilities instead, but I know it's ultimately more useful to learn a programming language, it's just so frustrating and hard. I have so many questions and asking them all on stack overflow and having them either deleted getting replies that are more complex that the question i'm asking.

It's a mess, but I'll be 28 this year and I can't go my whole life without learning anything. Right now I'm taking a break and playing some old GBC and super nintendo games. I thought I might start recording gameplay and make a sort of 'no bullshit' gameplay only thing for people like me who close a video the moment they hear someone talking over it.

So how about you?

A chicken's tuckus when it eats. How they haven't evolved vacuum inhalation of food yet is beyond me.

Exams are coming up, but it does not seem to be a problem to me, considering I always ace them while barely studying. But life is good so far, built a new gaming PC which has a GTX 1080.

Just a friendly warning from someone who should have tried harder. Make sure whatever you do for college/university is a functional skill. As in learn how to do something that I cant do without getting training. Preferebly something like electrical, circuitry, programming, etc. Being able to make things is probably the best way to survive, I dont want to see you miserable years from now without as many opportunities.

Congrats on your PC, what are you planning to play on it? We have a 1070 and i'm usually playing multiplat stuff like darkest dungeon or emulators.

I always get really vivid nightmares, especially after eating cheese before sleeping.

Thanks for the tips man, my dad wants me to become an architect or an engineer since my math skills are incredible.

[MuramasasEdge]

So like I gotta job and I proceeded to get my bro a job there as well.
I feel pretty good.
It'll probably be the first and only time I work with my friend on the same job.

[Troisnyx]

I am as okay as I can be...

which sometimes can mean "not okay at all."

I'm doing well. I'm learning sequences and series in calculus and angular rotation in physics.

If that's something you don't mind doing go for it, if not anything that uses your skills but can be useful towards many different jobs is a safe bet. Always look out for number 1 though.

Hey that's good to hear! I hope it goes well for both of you and ends up being a longterm thing.

Same here senpai, but the other 50% can usually do a pretty good job of faking it. I am pretty excited for breath of the wild in a couple of months, so that's my motivation at the moment.

Spooky, just be happy you didn't get sleep paralysis for it yeah? getting stabbed in the balls in a dreamscape is still painful I hear.

Just wish i had more free time these days.

When you have little free time the days off go by sooooo fast its insane.
But the moment you're anticipating and looking forward to something it just drags on forever.
I used to daydream about being able to fastforward my life and reach the end of a school day with all the work finished and tests done. Or just stop time and zone out for 3 days and finish everything in solitude. But not before horribly abusing such a power on my classmates.

At the end of the day all you can do is try to have a bit of fun while you're working.

I'm like 90% sure I don't know what any of those are. I was in Sped math in highschool. I never did homework which was pretty necessary for keeping up with math. I couldn't dream of doing calculus back then.
