3308959 Up is the opposite of down. I have no idea what I'm getting into. What's making my life good is that I have some requests of art that might be done soon, that school is almost over, that a friend will be sending me my $100 back, but it'll take time, and that I'm going over to a party tomorrow. What's bad is that I'm with my dad, I can't start making a new video now, and that I'm going to be so fucking busy next week. How about you?
3309004 Same. Same. Internet, this group, games, not being bothered, and learning something new just about every day. No source of income, still have certain issues that I haven't fixed within myself, and my procrastination problem is getting so bad to the point where I'm making lists for lists.
3309026 The weirdest thing is that for every bad habit I have, I can either just kill it or change my behavior in such a manner that it doesn't even exist. It's absolutely no problem to do it. But I just never do it.
I've been getting back into watching TV Shows. Working my way through The Walking Dead and will eventually start Breaking Bad as well.
What makes my life good? The fact that whenever it feels like I'm about to start wallowing in a pit of self pity and/or hatred, I manage to get over it after a good night's sleep.
What's crappy about my life? A FimFic user a couple hours drive from me has invited me to tag along with them across the country to a mlp convention in Sydney in September. Problem is, I dunno if my work'll give me the days off or not, or if my parents will even permit me to travel across the country with someone from the internet in the first place.
I've had my recurring dream that I have managed to get employed by Achievement Hunter and get to work with the literal coolest people on the planet.
3309093 I just quit Breaking Bad and Prison Break completely, though I intend to finish them.
Sleep manages to fix everything for me too, thank god.
That's awesome. It's way in September though. You'll have plenty of time to try and come up with a way to persuade your parents. I don't know what to say if your work doesn't give you the time off though.
3309150 Some employers can be touchy about giving their employees days off, wanting a real good reason before they do so. I don't know what my current employer is like with days off, so I'm unsure whether they will let me get them off just so I can go to a convention on the other side of the country. Also, my parents are really paranoid about the internet. My father literally despises it and only ever uses it when he's looking for something he needs to buy, that isn't readily available in town.
Achievement Hunter is a branch-off from the company Rooster Teeth Productions; a company that makes shows and series based around video games. Achievement Hunter is their "Let's Play" department. Their job is to go into an office every week, play a bunch of video games, edit the videos, and upload them to youtube.
My dream is to work for them, except for a few problems. #1. They're in Austin, Texas. Miles from where I currently am. #2. they're full and not hiring #3. to get hired, you do not send in an application. You have to get noticed in their online community, or make videos on youtube and get noticed that way. #4. They're full and not hiring.
3309167 Informative post. Sounds like you'll need to come up with a way to persuade your employer as well. My family's paranoid about the internet and my grandpa even came in to give me a speech telling me to be careful about who I meet online, but it's hard to get them to accept that there's a skill to figuring out who someone is online the same as there are figuring out someone you meet in person.
3309237 Hopefully it's as easy as saying "Hey, there's this thing is Sydney I'd like to go to, but it's on Saturday and Sunday and I'll need to fly out on Friday. Can I work earlier in the week, instead of the Friday and Saturday?"
So what's up? What are you getting into? What's making your life good or crappy? What did you dream about?

3309015 I'm an expert procrastinator!
I hate it so much!

3308959 Ugh, do I have to talk to a heretic, eh?
3309447
Who's the heretic?
3309488 You are the heretic!
3309490
3309548
3309549
Believe it or not, there used to be a time where I thought that word described me better than any other word.
3309598 You use to thought the word heretic suited you!?
3308959
You already know what's up with me friendo
3309608
Yup. I need a better word now.
3309703
I do.
3309711 Hmmm, how about Lord of Sins, eh?
3309725
I was thinking more of the dissenting opinion part.
3309745 Damn, how about Blasphemer, eh.
3309751
Nah. That just makes me sound like an asshole. I've a different opinion, I don't wanna beat the shit outta people with it.
3309758 Hmmm, how about Papa Nurgle, eh?
3309783
NO.
If we have to settle on Warhammer, I'll take Slaneesh.
3309829 Slaneesh works, eh. But your avatar totally doesn't match it, eh.
3309851
My avatar doesn't match anything. Neither does my username.
3309869 Then it will never suit you, eh.
3309890
You mean... I can't be with them unless my avatar fits them?
3309900 YES!
3309918
Picky bastards.
3310011 Yes, yes we are, eh.
3310039
We?
I thought you weren't a heretic?
3310041 Well, mind gets pretty jumbled up when talking to someone else atm, eh.
3309237
Hopefully it's as easy as saying "Hey, there's this thing is Sydney I'd like to go to, but it's on Saturday and Sunday and I'll need to fly out on Friday. Can I work earlier in the week, instead of the Friday and Saturday?"
3310044
*Microphone, recording device, live audience*
So, Mrs. Patlestia, is it true that you are indeed a heretic?
3310072
Oh pffft. Only in video games is fighting ever that easy. You're gonna have to crush resistances.
3310111 NO! Well, I like to believe I'm not!
3310235
You like to believe that you're not. Does this mean that you aren't sure if you're a heretic?
3310242 I AM SURE I AM NO HERETIC!
3310254 *knocks the bag of popcorn out of your hands, and onto the floor*
3310272
oh mai, are you in denial, Pat?
3310254
3310272
*Hands Ria a newer, better, fresher bag of popcorn*
Ahem.
So what did you mean by this statement?
3310278 I AM NOT IN DENIAL! I'M A PURE SORORITAS OF THE INQUISITION!
3310279 THAT'S LIES AND HERESY!
3310331
Oh? But We got that from a reputable source: the site's webmaster. What do you have to say now?
3310331
White girl speaks with forked tongue.
3310341 I HAVING TO SAY TO THE LIKES OF YOU, HERETIC!
3310359 I no not what you say, but it sounds a lot like heresy!
3310411
Burn the witch!
3310427 YOU ARE ALL HERETICS!
3310451
3310359
Told you that was mascara. I win the bet.
3310458

What bet?
3310458 Wait, what!?
