Running to the Sea - Royksopp. Now that I know it’s about some sort of terrorist attack, I just feel weird listening to it now

Brick Technology makes cool mechanisms out of Lego to solve some simple problems

My job title is Storyboard artist/3D Generalist but I haven’t really done any storyboards or 3D stuff for about a month. I’m more of a compositor now working for a small production studio. However, since it’s client work and the big boss has been off on a press tour, I haven’t really had anything to do for the past 2 weeks. I’d wake up around 10-11, lay in bed until maybe 12 or so. I’d get out of bed, go buy a coffee from McDonald’s, and then either watch tv or play my Xbox. Rinse and repeat unless something interesting happens that day. Sometimes I’d get a task from work which usually takes me about 1 to 2 hours to finish then I’d do nothing again. I basically do nothing all day and get paid for it. Sounds pretty awesome but I’m bored out of my mind.

Galaxy Z Fold 5. Before this I had a Z Flip 4. This Fold 5 is probably the best phone I’ve ever owned. The screen is amazing to watch stuff on, I make music sometimes on it, I played through all of Paper Mario on it, I use it to draw when I’m bored or waiting for someone.

Watership Down was what traumatized me on seeing blood in cartoons. Cartoons and blood just…dont mix.

I don’t want to show anyone up

Well, from what I’ve been reading, apparently there’s some sort of 80 year contract that was made in 1947 that is supposed to expire. Either with aliens or something like that.

There’s a lot of buzz going around the UFO community about something BIG coming. I’ve been hearing people talk about 2027 a lot.

Shit. I associate that with how my friend and I used to say it during games. “Ah Chiet!” like you have no teeth.

I had a random guy I have never seen in my life recognize me in a city I don’t even live in. I was walking by a dude in an aisle of a thrift shop and he did a double take when he looked at me. If looks could kill I would’ve dropped dead right there. As I walked by I heard him mumble something and swear. Immediately I felt uncomfortable so I left. I was showing my mom around town at the time so the next time I saw him while we were waiting for the bus he didn’t seem to recognize me since I was standing beside my mom.

Later on, I heard a news story from that city that some dude was randomly shot. Apparently it was a targeted killing. Sometimes I wonder if that was going to me just based on how that guy looked at me.

I usually distract myself with a YouTube video or a movie. But it’d be nice to have some help with it

My anxiety is particularly bad today. I woke up with my hands shaking and I got so nervous I started to dry heave.

The idea of being in a relationship scares me. I grew in a house where my parents had fights, sometimes violent but most times quiet and tense. My sister has had a few relationships where she had to physically take a gun away from her boyfriend. My closest aunty has an on/off relationship with her boyfriend. And, the rest of my family, with the exception of one or two of my aunts and uncles, are all either single or having relationship issues.

Who’s to say that I won’t be roped into that? I still have nightmares about the fights that still happen to this day. I cower everytime I hear someone raise their voice and I retreat back to my room whenever I feel that tension. I don’t want my future spouse to go through something like that so I’d rather just stay alone.

That’s a coincidence. I remember getting shot right in the middle of my forehead with a pellet gun. My friends and I were playing at their house and were shooting pellet guns. I was leaning over a railing in the side of their house looking down to where my friend was shooting at. To this day I don’t know how it happened, but I remember the pellet ricocheting straight up to where I was leaning over and hit me directly in the middle of my forehead. But, I don’t remember feeling any pain or having a mark. I remember looking up at friends in surprise and that’s it. If I had moved my head just a tiny bit further up or to the side, I probably would’ve lost one of my eyes. That’s just one of the many times where I would’ve gotten a serious injury when I was a kid but somehow, I never did.

My family and my dream as cliched as it sounds

Graduating from university and getting the news of my dad’s diagnosis. I’m in the part of the story where everything goes wrong. Just waiting for the part where everything suddenly goes right.

Treat others the way you’d like to be treated. When I call customer support, I don’t get mad at the person because it’s not their fault. If someone flubs up my order I don’t say anything. I try to smile to everyone even though I don’t want to. Even if I don’t make their day better, I try to make it at least bearable.

I had a small switch on the back of the adapter that chose between channel 3 or channel 4

I remember playing games on channel 3
