It feels weird to update the blog after 5 days of going no where near it, but hello again! I've been following a buisy schedule of Music, Studying, Animal Crossing, and food. It has kept me very distracted from my other goals, but we'll circle back to those eventually. I have made a decision during this time that I will share with no one irl, and if they visit my site on their own hopefully this will be buried and they won't pay it any mind due to just how much text is all over this site. The decision I have made is this: I'm going to slowly collect computer parts and knowledge amd build my own new computer. It'll be a fun little side project that will help me learn more about how computers function as well as provide me with a computer that can handle everything that I'll be doing for my coding projects and school.
Another decision I have made is that once I start college, sometime next year, I'm going to "start" working on some computer programs and games I've always wanted to make. I'll be plotting them out starting sometime soon so I already have what is basically a step by step guide on the how's and why's that will, hopefully, make the projects easier when the time comes.
This brings my task list up to:
- Study for SAT and ACT
- Study for college classes
- Personal growth and language studies
- Continue coding study
- Build computer (computer hardware study and porting operating systems)
- Build my own computer software!
Looking forward to this all, honestly. Most of these projects are slow things done peice by peice overtime (and I'll be really bad at them at first) so I'm not too worried about over extending myself. I'm going to be focusing on the first three for now, and I'll plan and study for the last three as I go along. I will need to start on projects that are far simpler than I want to do so I can gain some skills in the things I want to do first (I mean I'm still super new here after all) but I'm looking forward to this.
Side note: One of the other things I'm going to have to learn, is how to use blender (or another program) to make the graphics for my game, because I am way more interested in graphics that remind me of the 3DS and DS/DSi than like full pixel or full 3d art. It's just what I must do.
Out side of my regularly scheduled day, I haven't been up to too much. I have been watching a lot of WelcominTv minecraft videos, my sister and I have figured out that certain shaders stop the headaches I get from the game through his videos. Not to mention they're just fun videos. Anyways she's set me up a profile on her computer so I can try it out! Here's hoping because I can't play this game another way!

Update! I fell back asleep. So I slept from 11 am 9/23 to 9 pm then I went back to bed (some how) near 10 pm and Woke at 3 am today. I slept for 15 hours total... That's not healthy!
Side note: I recomend any one who likes both Minecraft and light horror read the Cube Arts manga, it's only 3 volumes and was surprisingly fun to read. I give it ☆☆☆☆!

Anyone else ever just randomly become re-obsessed with things you used to really like? I've recently gotten back into reading manga and playing video games (ones like "My Aunt is a Witch" and "Animal Crossing"). It's been a super nice break from studying and dentist stuff. Also, restarting my island has been nice for my need to complete things, I've been fishing a lot ^-^
On a cooking front, I made cupcakes for my neices birthday (I've don't this afew times recently) and I made ColbyJack Biscuits (the Chedarbay Biscuits but with different cheese and a little more butter) as well. I haven't been making too many real meals though, so I've been thinking when I get a little more energy later tonight I'm gonna make a full meal for my self! We've still got corn and potatoes and I think there's more country fried steak left over in the freezer. This technically won't be much real cooking, but it will be nice and warm food so that counts.
As far as studying goes I plan on clearing two more chapters later tonight, so that's about to be a lot o' work. It should be english and reading that I was working on but IDK I just woke up...
Might watch Anime while I eat, I still haven't finished Yuuki Yuuna yet.

Small update: Test dates had to be changed because I missed the registration deadlines on accident,so I'll be starting college later than planned next year BUT next year for sure!
Also! I've been cooking a little more recently and last night I made chicken legs for the first time ^-^ it's been so long since we've had them in the house, I never really got to try until now. They came out amazing!!!

I'm getting used to proper dental care (weird topic but shh), and it hurts my gums so much. It's been closed to 10 years, since my emergency visit on Aug 9th, since I've been to a dentist. And probably around 6 years since I've taken care of my teeth properly for this long. Like I said: it hurts. Hurts less than before, but it's still like really bad and it bleeds alot more than I'd like.
On the studying front: I'm making excellent progress with my text books, and can probably have all the big sections (everything but the practice questions chapters) done by the end of next week at the earliest or the week after that at the latest. This still gives me a week before the SAT that I can use to go over the practice questions. The books have about 300 questions per subject, so I can do about half of them as reveiw for the SATs and the other half for the ACTs. I'm scoring an average of 85% on my practice quizzes ( about a 1390 on the SATs and a 31 average for the ACTs), which I still want to get higher. My goal minimum is 1450 on the SATs and 33 on the ACT. If I can score higher than that I'm set!

I feel like I'm starting to develop a pickle problem, I ate like half a jar today (I'm going to bed at like three AM, so I mean the 11th)... I will be repeating this tomorrow.

I've had a great past couple of days with my family and getting more of my dentist stuff done with. Progress studying has been great! I've been moving farther than I thought. Saw the new BeetleJuice movie, thought it was great! It had oddly poor writing but was super well directed. I do think there were too many antagonists and too little pay off for them wich sucks but it was a great movie anyways, so greatly prefer the o.g.
I want them to make one more BeetleJuice movie, so that it goes: BeetleJuice, BeetleJuice BeetleJuice, then BeetleJuice BeetleJuice BeetleJuice. Which would be hilarious.

Turns out, it's a permanent filling so they can finish the rest of my dental work AND THEN I'll get a new permanent tooth. Which is much nicer than I thought all of this was going to be.
Studying is fully back on track, recent quiz scores in math and science show about a 20% increase!!! I'm now in the 80%'s and 90%'s and it's so good! love it! Im hoping I can maintain these scores on the actual test because then all things are going to go awesome! Sidenote: I just double checked what the average score for all ACT Subjects for my state was (because I could only remember the national one) and its about 50%... I'm much less worried about my testing now.
Me and my sister recently got this new game called Moonstone Island and we started playing I think on the 3rd? Idk. It's really cool! I have way to manny unfinished games I'm "playing"... Have a good Night everyone!
