Mildly terrible day filled with BS from US immigration services, almost getting killed twice on the freeway, internet blockage, and just generally feeling miserable. However I got my robot necklace.

I finished Final Fantasy Tactics a while ago. I have the posthumous nocturne in C# by Chopin memorized. I have yet to draw anything. I got my annual haircut. I will be going to India soon if my visa ever clears, but I will for sure go to Colorado. Mother is back, again. FML.

So far I've finished the penciling for the first page and the first page of the plot twist. Since the twist comes chronologically before the first page I mistakenly worked on that before I came to my senses and realized that I by the time I got there I should have improved in art.

I have a friend who likes movies based on their special and visual effects. I can't even call that shallow because most movies have such basic plots and so little innovation that liking a movie for its plot would be even more shallow. That being said, I saw Being John Malkovich in TOK. That class gave me so much trouble at the beginning of the year ( Read more... )

I don't know when or if this happened. But I heard someone say that when someone asks what issue matters least to you, without giving you options to choose from, it's impossible to give the topic you care least about because your brain is wired to give one of the things you've recently thought about. I think I might have been dreaming when I heard ( Read more... )
