July 19: A Nice, Relaxing Day
Today I had the day off, and I got up a bit before noon. I got some bananas and some carrots and a grapefruit from the Yokosan along with my korokke and some milk. I came back to the dorm to eat lunch, and had a nice long chat with Mom and Jiuna. We got video chat working this time, as they used Jiuna's laptop instead of Mom's netbook to avoid Chrome crashes. It was nice to see their faces again, and I am very much looking forward to Jiuna coming over in a couple of weeks.
After we finished our chat, I played StarCraft with Kevin for a couple of hours, and today I was alright again! Haha I think the biggest things that I changed were turning down my graphics settings so that my framerate is perfectly smooth again, and putting a kleenex under my arm and wrist haha. Seriously! I think a lot of my control problems were due to the face that I noticed my arm kind of sticking to the desk due to the humidity here, and a kleenex solved that nicely. I was kind of destroyed the kleenexes (kleenexen?!?) at an alarming rate though, so I tried switching to one of my "body towels" (they're thinner than washcloths are here haha) in the interest of being environmentally friendly, and it worked fine too. I also think I'm getting used to the smaller screen and used to playing StarCraft again period haha.
After playing with Kevin I caught up on webcomics and studied a little, and then went out to LAWSON STATION to buy myself some dinner. They didn't have any katsu-don left! NOOO!!! It turned to be fine though, because I got hiyashi-chuuka, as they offer it now that it's summer. It was pretty good, a touch plastic-y, but there were chashu slices and cucumbers and eggs and stuff, so I feel almost virtuous about it. I ate it while watching the GSL Code A finals, which were 6 games of PvP totalling less than an hour and a half, with 5 of the 6 games being 4-gate vs 4-gate. >_< I was reminded of one of the reasons why I'm hesitant to ladder, but the 5th game had some pretty cool stuff, and the sixth game was alright too.
After eating I played some Touhou UFO and floundered around on the Internet. I convinced myself not to go to Akihabara when I'll be going there in like, 2 days, but at the moment I'm wondering what exactly that was supposed to accomplish ahaha. My shoulder is still a little gimped. I really wonder what I've done to it... I haven't suffered any trauma to it, but it came on so suddenly. Luckily I don't use the motions that hurt outside of handiball, and even then only when serving. I do wonder what this is about though...
Anyways, it's much, much past my bedtime, and I really must get to sleep as soon as possible now that I've blogged. Hopefully my weekend days will be a little more exciting to read about than today was haha (although just chilling for a day was totally awesome, and now tomorrow is "Friday").
Night!
