Been in a weird place feelings wise. Like I am progressing towards my goals, but at the same time I wish it was faster? Obviously any progress is good, but it does sting thinking about what I could have done for myself in the past. Itโs a misunderstanding of my time in the past and there is not anything to be done there.
Started my new job!!! Been loving talking with my new coworkers. Thereโs a lot of time spent on my own, which gives my brain a looot of time to think. Got really into making stories about my job. Gonna pitch my boss some book ideas later :^)
Got another friend group into playing the Slay the Spire board game with meโฆ Surely weโll get a few wins in. Surely.
Celebrated my birthday with my beautiful friends!!! Had insanely good pizza from a place we havenโt tried before!
Started Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance!!! Iโve done some Atlus games before in Persona and Etrian Odyssey. Even dipped my toes in Nocturne before but never got far. SMTV is sooo fun. The gameplay loop is addicting, fusing demons is so damn cool. I love love the press turn system. Talked about the soundtrack earlier and it is hiiiitting. Demon Haunt is so damn cute I love seeing my demons talk shit.
Assassinโs Quest is easily my favourite of the Farseer trilogy right now. Fitz on his own with Nighteyes is such a good dynamic I forgot how good it could be. The attempted assassination of Regal was so fucking cool. Love the book so far.
Got bored of Re:Zero but it picked up again recently. S2 part 2 is getting intense now!
โIf we are to live โฆ we must take risks. Else our lives become deaths in all but name. There is no struggle too vast, no odds too overwhelming, for even should we fail - should we fall - we will know that we have lived.โ Anomander Rake, Toll the Hounds
A very beautiful way of describing that need to take risks. Itโs something that I am aware of. There is a comfort in taking minimal risks, only taking action if you know the results, but to truly experience life one has to step out of their walls to the great unknown.
