My good news is that I got a new Ipod. The old one broke some weeks ago (hardware defect). Repairing it made no sense for an Ipod of its age. Now that I have a new one, it is no longer an issue to open it and see what I can do to either fix it or break it completely XD. The thing is Ipods are built so that the average person can't even open them, and even if they manage to do that, repairs are quite hard. Even the most basic stuff may require dismantling it almost entirely XD.

I say this to myself at the end of everyday :lol:
It happened the first time on Friday. Sure, annoying stuff happens and mostly has little to no impact on me. This time was different. Staying a bit longer would've made me go on a rampage in there XD. I mentioned some details in another place. Those lack most details about what made it that horrible. So, yeah, next time I'll go there with a bluetooth headset and listen to music all day. No one cares anyway, but it'll look like I'm just protecting my ears from the noise if someone actually asks what that is. No matter how shitty work is, I can bear with it that way :lol: . But it isn't that bad on most days.

I stayed up late playing Dust: An Elysian Tail and got through season 5 of Inuyasha B-) Which the last disc of the season 5 dvd set is amazing.

I'd probably bust the front screen/panel part trying to get it off. It doesn't seem to flexible :lol:

Update:
It seems I only post here about my sleep schedule, lol.

Went out a few times this weekend. It's good to hang out with friends before most split to go to college. Sitting around doing nothing a lot, mainly waiting for friends to get on skype so we can hopefully play some games together (the part that sucks about waking up before others).

If anyone wants to add me on steam, here's my profile:
>>Clicky<<

Maybe we can do something sometime. I've been playing Warframe recently.

Mine is a bit old since it was yesterday, but I got an Ar nosurge Agent Pack as a gift from a certain person.
And that aside, I can only say that my current project (Class::AR_NOSURGE#Proto;) is almost ready. I'm just doing the final tests right now.

I always find Thunder and Arcadia's interactions here to be heartwarming ~

My good news for the day? Well, my day has just started, so I guess my good news is that I'm starting to enjoy posting on the ARM forum again. It seems like - personal troubles that I've had in the past, are no longer interfering with that kind of thing, which is nice.

My good news for today is that I seem to be fully "self-actualized" - that thing at the top of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

I guess that might have some Cosmosphere equivalent, but I don't recall doing the Marriage Ceremony with anyone. I guess you don't get the exact same experience when you Self-Dive (I guess I've been doing the IRL analogy of that for the past couple of years).

I remember that from school. I can't remember which grade I was in when it was introduced. But yeah, I think we all do some self-diving at some point. Wrestling with our own demons so to speak and becoming the person we want to be. And some us who have someone very close to us experience a form of regular diving where we share our inner most thoughts and secrets with each other. But you don't just share that information with just anyone. Still, I can only imagine experiencing real diving. I think it'd be interesting to see how that would change things in our world given how things are now. With regards to people and relationships I mean.

According to some theories, this may be do-able someday with the right equipment.

Resolved an issue with the admissions dept. of the college I'll be attending. That's cool.

I think a lot of that thing would be best done by a trained Dive operator though - basically, a futuristic version of our current-day psychologists.

I'm sure you've noticed just how smooth the protagonists are in their Dives - they know just the right things to do and say in even the most intense Dive situations, it's almost like they're visual novel protagonists or something.

Back on this planet in our present time where we don't quite have that tech, probably techniques like CBT are the most reliable. More or less, I've been practicing my own custom, fairly intense self-administered version of that over the past few years and chasing away my own demons~ of course - it's best to do these kind of things under expert advisement too, rather than just going by anything you read out of books or the web for instance - it's best to not have any kind of unrealistic ideas about how it works. Like for a while, I thought it would work a bit like some version of Ar tonelico Dives~ :P (to some extent it can be, where you are both your own antagonist and protagonist over some issues, but that's getting kind of deep).

It's also odd how in so many of these settings, there are basically no psychologists or mental health experts at all. But it's also a very common trope too in fiction.

TV Tropes
 

In most fiction, there are no official systems in place to protect those who are psychologically vulnerable. Nobody is ever concerned that the kid who watched their parents die might be considering suicide, homicide, or fighting crime without due process. Fiction is full of Bunny-Ears Lawyers but this will be ignored so long as they're not crazy with axes.


....

Oh, and I guess that my good news for the day is that I finished off some fairly intense work I had been busy with, related to the forum move scenario we've been discussing. After finishing that kind of thing, the strong sense of euphoria that can come over you, can almost make it worth all the trouble~
