>Wrote 1600 words for my novel this morning, the next 1600 after work, putting me just over my Camp NaNoWriMo target for this month. The whole thing needs a MASSIVE re-write, and I will give it one soon (probably after May), but just knowing I've done it, I've written the story through to the end, is one of my greatest achievements. (The total word count was 85,715, including a bit of summarizing and planning, about 50k in November, 20k this month, and the rest in between.)
>The weather just will not stop being awesome.
>Co-teacher brought her daughter in today to help us with craft projects with the 3rd graders, which turned out amazing.
>The private lesson I was dreading after my main job turned out to be excellent (long and enthusiastic conversation about the differences between US and CZ school systems).
>Finally made a solid decision to stop spending lots of time on Therian Saga. It's been eating away at my spare time each day and starting to feel like an obligation more than fun. From now on, only queueing minimal resource-gathering activities for most days (shouldn't take more than 20 minutes), and playing dungeons, etc. only when I feel like actually sitting down and playing, because I *want* to. Making this decision feels really good.

I got trough the midterms without blowing a fuse, and, passed three out of four subjects ( this is mostly speculation based on how I did the exams) which is damn good in my book, and a personal record for me I think.

Had a good day off. Still adjusting to full time work, so taking some me time is definitely accomplishing something, even though I did very little of value today.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.
probably figured an autobiography wouldn't be interesting

- Got some more information about Awesomenauts' 2.4 update to put in my news center thread (the previous edition of which reached 300 pages in 2 months while the runner up reached ~280 in over a year)
- Drew myself a new avatar which I've also started to use on Steam (if it wasn't down for some stupidass reason)
- Did a screenshot mockup of Gun Francisco's gameplay (well, in a way, that was mostly to see how the HUD would fare)
- Learned about the interface design of most fighter games out there
-- Used that to redesign the HUD in Gun Francisco
- Probably did something else I completely forgot about

Then you get cities like Paris where you should basically just kill yourself already.

You won’t have to think anymore: it’ll be just like having fun!

Apparently I passed all my classes. Awesome. Too bad my GPA is now under 3.0.

I wish I could unwatch a thread because every time I look at this I can feel myself dying faster
Dying of laughter?
Dying of pure unbridled hatred, actually.
