How’s today going?

[Sonachine69]

Finished a big commissioned project that kept me busy all month, so I bought some beer and went day drinking in the forest near my house.

Found a really cool spot. This field will be covered with sunflowers soon, but now there is a good view. Sat there for the whole evening and returned home feeling relaxed for the first time in a month.

Grass is touched, and I'm happy :>

all in all, pretty lousy day today. bombed my japanese final exam like i expected to and will very likely fail the whole class. first time i've EVER failed a class. it doesn't happen, and i don't mean to sound cocky in saying that... just a bad mix of taking a course 2 levels higher than i should've been in (because the others weren't being offered), and the professor being a teacher's assistant. majoring in political science. with seemingly little experience in teaching a language course. nobody had fun.

i don't know what that means for me in terms of stuff like my scholarship, which relies on me doing well in classes to keep it, but hopefully it's nothing super duper serious. i have a 3D world design project to finish up, then one more exam on wednesday. after that, a whole two and a half months of do-whatever-the-hell-i-feel-like time. i am going to try and make So Much Art i am scared for my wellbeing

hope it works out okay, it sucks being in that kind of situation where to some extent your continued existence is "performance" based. good luck and you got this. bitch and moan as much as you have to if they try to give you shit for it.

luv buying tools. 'ate paying for tools.
bought myself a hammer drill yesterday, inhaled a nice bit of brick dust today, which is a great excuse to get a cool dust mask.

It's been a really good day today. Took my rental car ('22 Toyota Corolla) back to Enterprise and despite being slapped with another pile of bills that I'll have to get reimbursed by Progressive, it's been nice. Gorgeous weather, got a lot of work done, got to catch up with an older friend who drove me back after the car drop-off.

Had a bunch of friends over for a cookout tonight and we ended the evening by playing the no mercy version of uno. Incredibly fun, that game is nuts

enlighten us on the no mercy rules

enlighten us on the no mercy rules

If you have 25+ cards you're outta the game, the cards feature lots of action cards & most of them are all about getting you dangerously close to that 25 limit. It's much less about getting to 0 cards & much more about getting your opponents kicked out by having them hit the limit. Lots of fun.

Solid day so far but I’m exhausted. Running from the word go lol

the city gas company has been outside all day working on a neighbor's house, having reported checking for a gas leak. for ten hours.
it was at ten hours that we were informed the whole block needed to be evacuated. because the gas company was leaking gas. they hit a main pipe.
a handful of residents of the block were stuck out on the corner of the road for two hours, me included. the gas company pretty much never directly informed us about any progress. they only talked to the police when they asked. the police weren't even called. they just happened to pass by not long after we were moved out.
this was an interesting day to say the least

I jinxed myself here. My sister got into town with the transmission on her car dying, we spent the next 2-3 hours trying to find a shop that could take her & a tow company that could come get her. This day ended with me driving four hours to get her home & then heading back to my place. Perhaps the most exhausted I have ever been and it’s enough to almost make me want to never get behind the wheel of a car again lol.

Also holy hell @kevin supermarket

Physically exhausted to the brink (and about to be a little past that later today) but mentally relaxed, at least. One day I'll have time to rest again.

Much appreciated amigo. It’s been so tiring lately, so many things I wanna get done that keep slipping due to how burned out I am

 

[Andrew]

Spent a few hours on the road today and got to experience a steering column falling apart at 55MPH halfway through an hourlong drive. Not fun! Giant deadzone where the steering wheel flies around with no resistance & does nothing. Lucky me that I was driving it to the shop in the first place.

today's been okay. that feels better than the rest of the week being shitty!

i've been stuck in an awkward position of unproductiveness as of late. i have easy college courses paired with my two GAME courses, which while easy in their own regards, are very annoying for me to handle given they only meet in person once a week. i'm the kind of person that only gets work done in class and reserves the rest of my free time to be... free. pair this with the complete lack of motivation to make video games i've had lately, and you've got a pretty unhappy kevin supermarket.

as of today though, i talked with a friend who i look up to quite a bit in the art sphere. it was nice realizing/remembering more of what i could relate to them with, and we talked about game design for a little while. it helped lift my spirits and put a little bit more confidence in me that i can keep going. i'll try to hold on to that a little longer and get some real work done at last

Little bit of a busy day today, got a simple metalheart piece out and am currently working on more backdrops for my own use, this time a bit earlier tho. Been up at like 5am each night making those and I need to put a stop to that xD
