Sigh.
I was totally excited to take some pictures this weekend. I haven’t for a while cuz I’ve been busy on the weekends.
This:
I JUST NEED IT TO BE SUNNY FROM 9:00-10:30 ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORNING. I can’t take pictures on weekdays.
WHY IS LIFE SO CRUEL.
/overreact
I’ve just been working really hard.
I do my standard day at work and I spend a lot of time during the night working lately.
My days are still pretty busy, I don’t seem to find time to get lunch until 2:30ish.
I’ve got a number of big projects, Facebook API I need to learn for work, doing some ASP.NET…
but I’m just all around busy.
I pray for a sunny Saturday and Sunday cuz I got no plans and I’m going to take so many pictures this weekend! I haven’t for a while cuz I’ve been busy…but no more!
I just got the New Super Mario Bros. 2 on the 3DS and I’m going to give Persona 4 Arena some more playing now that I’ve watched the anime.
I’ve also been playing a lot of DOTA2. OMG I’m so stupid, I’ve been waiting for this game for a while…and it’s been out for a while…but I didn’t know I could get it off Steam. I thought it was still in BETA or something. Everyday this week, I play about 1-3 games which is about 30m-2.5 hours/day. So I guess my time’s going to THAT too.
I’m basically living my life the way I lived it before I was deving a lot: watching anime and playing games. It’s nice to get back to my “this is purely for enjoyment” roots but I don’t want to stay here. There’s too much time already wasted to maintain this lifestyle. I need to be more productive!
I’ve been approached to do a bit more freelance.
I really don’t want to do it because
1. I already have my own projects to work on
2. I barely have enough time in my life for everything as it is
3. I really don’t want to do it
But I kinda wanna do it because
1. Last time, I made around $4000 in a month. That money really helped with the car I purchased.
I could really use another $4000.
But I don’t really need the money. I could use it, sure. But I don’t really NEED it.
I’m not a person who works on projects for money or power, I do it simply for the experience. Not the work experience (well, that’s part of it), but just for the fun of it. I have so many projects on the go because I’m always looking towards doing and learning new things.
Anyways, I’ll hear what this guy has to say…but…I still don’t know….
I love my life as is. I don’t want to put it on hold, even for $4000. $6000 tho… :P
So I’m planning to go to FanExpo Friday.
I’ll probably do a few runs through all the isles but I’m not looking for much this time around. I don’t wanna spend much either.
To Buy List
Comics:
Batman & Robin 12
Justice League 11
Spider-Man 689, 690, 691,692
Spider-Men 4
AVX 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
AVX VS 4-6
Avenging Spider-​Man #10
Batman, Incorporated #3
Statues:
Kotobukiya Bishoujo Black Widow Variant: Yelena
Kotobukiya Bishoujo Rogue Variant: Rogue Long Coat
Kotobukiya Bishoujo Phoenix Variant: White Phoenix
That’s my list. That’s it. I don’t plan on buying anything else. Maybe some art prints :)
I’ll continue adding to this until Thursday night if needed but I think I’m set with my above list.
To go or not to go. A question I ask myself every year.
Honestly, I’ve been leaning towards no. While there are some new comics I want to get, I really only want to buy 3 things – 3 hard to find Kotobuiya Bishoujo statues. But I think the odds that they’re even at this Con are very slim.
But looking at the times and cost, if I went, I’d most likely go only:
Thursday: 4:00am – 8:30pm . Cost – 25.00 !! (so much $$ for 4.5 hours!)
Friday: 10:00am – 6:30pm . Cost – 30.00 (this seems a lot better).
I think I’m heavily considering going only on Friday. I don’t want to go Thursday out of fear that they’ll be setting up still and risk losing the opportunity to buy these items simply cuz they’re not unpacked yet.
Anyways, we’ll see…
