Good Things, Bad Things

Good things!

- OMG, our kitchen is pretty much done! Or at least, we now have a sink, an oven, a microwave and everything! No more eating out of plastic dishware...we can actually do things like MAKE RAMEN YAY. Dudes who live should come over and see it; it actually looks really nice now. :O
- So on Friday I went to hang at the Ranch and it was funtimes! Hugs for all there! Also played a bunch of Brawl with [livejournal.com profile] chobit001, both versus each other and in co-op battles. (We attempted the boss battle run, but died, le sigh.) Aside from my usual of arsekicking as Yoshi (he's improved in Brawl, yaaay!) I've discovered I'm moderately decent at Lucario.
- Then afterwards, [livejournal.com profile] lady_entropy17 and I went to a late-night showing of Iron Man! :D I won't do a full-on review or anything, but I will say that it was awesome! Snappy dialogue, great characters, an "awww" romance that didn't feel forced or overdone, droolworthy special effects and badass action scenes. Definitely worth the arm and a leg ticket price that SoCal theaters charge! (And yes, I stayed through the credits. ;D)

Bad things!

- Uuugh, getting so frustrated with Matchmoving and Dynamics. (And Lighting a little, but not quite as frustrated as those other two). It seems like even just small little preset things will trip me up on an easy assignment, and then I just get fed up with fighting Maya and want to leave my homeworks crappy and unpolished. I really don't want to go mess with Boujou again with our re-imported footage. X(
EDIT: Apparently Boujou doesn't want to mess with ME, either, as there is a big **LICENSING ERROR** on every computer I've tried! :Db
- My right hand has seriously been getting a bunch of CTS pain lately. D: Coldness and pain in my knuckles, which is never a good sign. I think I need to try putting the brace back on, and also take a day off as another NO COMPUTER DAY. Probably will make it a Disneyland trip with buddies.
- And yet, I've got a ton of art I've promised people that I need to do... ;_;

Drawing: Whole crapload, as usual. But I'll be getting another round of character design homeworks today, soooo...

Writing: Just some RPness. (Wolf, srsly, stop being ADORABLE.)

Brace? Did you break your wrist or something?

From RP journal, LOL

No, I've got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome...had it for awhile, actually. It just gets really bad if I do a ton of repetitive stress on it, like mousing on the computer for hours on end. :/

RP journals FTW!

Oh man, that sucks. Try twirling your wrist around to loosen it up.

...

AND DID YOU SAY RAMEN XD

Yeah, I do that often anyways, but either I'm not doing the right exercises or it's doing very little. D: Usually the best things to do for it are either to wear my brace (I have it on now) or just avoid computering/drawing for an extended period of time.

...
CLOVER WOULD LIKE SOME.

No RP journals FTL!

That'd be hard, considering you being in school and needing the computer constantly.

AND SHE'LL HAVE TO FIGHT CHAOS FOR IT
