I can’t give too much away (incase anyone wants to do it) but basically, you and a few more people get locked into a room for 45 minutes and need to use teamwork and problem solving skills to solve a number of puzzles, allowing you to leave.
That’s what I did today – twice. It was pretty fun and I’d do it again.
I think this kinda thing is going to be an upcoming event type trend…that’s what I predict at least….
…that is all for today.
I know I said I’d blog every day and I was really close to not blogging – today was rough, between the travel time and a major production issue today and me, trying to resolve it in a car, in the mall parking lot, without a computer or internet, on my way to the airport to catch my flight.
I bought Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 during my trip. They came out in 2012…and upon playing it…WOW. Compared to Pokemon X and Y, they look HORRIBLY OUTDATED. Pokemon X and Y are so advanced, in comparison!
Every time I travel to the US, I’m worried something random, health related is gonna hit me and I’d have to pay outrageous hospital/healthcare costs. You cannot afford (literally) to get sick there. I heard a few healthcare horror stories from my co-workers there and I was freaking shocked and how expensive the stuff we take for granted here is – well, I would hope to say I don’t take it for granted because it’s so awesome here, in comparison (from a healthcare perspective). The crazy part is that your monetary situation largely revolves around luck – get in a car accident (that’s not even your fault) and you could be paying for it for years. Have some kind of genetic/hereditary healthcare issue, or cancer or something and you’re so screwed.
Also – I found out that the downtown office, in Chicago, can be seen in The Dark Knight, during the most epic of scenes – Batman in his batpod VS Joker in the truck. I can’t wait to watch the movie and check it out!
Anyways, that’s all for now – wasn’t planning to blog much tonight as I’m pretty tired…Just trying to keep my resolve :)
Starting tomorrow, I’m going to blog every day, until April 1st!
They may be short or long blogs…but I’m going to try to do that!
…That is all.
The good:
That’s all for now.
Bleh. Got sick. I think this is the first time getting sick since May 2013, when I started to take better care of myself by sleeping more and taking vitamin pills daily. And that stomach bug I had in December doesn’t count.
I’ve rediscovered Netflix and it’s awesome, way better than it was the last time I signed in. Much better selection….Z and I have started watching House of Cards. We’re only 3 or so episodes in but it’s pretty good. I’m generally not one for political dramas, but I appreciate the writing and main character. Reminds me alot of Walter White – incredibly intelligent and manipulative.
I’ve also randomly started watching Prince of Tennis again…from the beginning of the Prefecture Tournament, to the Junior Invitational (at the moment).
A bunch of co-workers and I are going to Anime North this year. We haven’t been for a while…but it seemed liked it’d be fun.
Haven’t been doing much lately other than working…I realize I’m currently doing 2 jobs right now, Manager, Development Team and Development Lead. It’s too hard, I’m struggling…I’ve been working really hard the last 6 months…I could use a break. I have the last week of March off – but that’s simply because I had to use last year’s carry over days before they expire. Still, looking forward to the break. Not sure what I’m going to do…I feel like just relaxing this time but who knows….I probably just say that cuz I’m sick.
I realized…it’s been about 6 months since I really stopped deving and it’s really starting to show. My skills are decreasing dramatically at this point. It’s okay, as I’m learning other things…but I don’t wanna get too far outta the game. I’m still not sure what direction I may take in 1-2 years. Maybe I should use my break to do a refresher…I don’t know.
