Mad Max was freakin' epic, though. Also I'm now through with my summer job - in other words, the thing that's taken most of my time since late May. I have my wages to save and spend, and now I have to get on with my Skyrim costume for Tracon X big time. We have yet to figure out parking for the weekend in question (aka whether or not the cost is reasonable enough for us to even drive up there) because the Internet is being a contradictory little shit. What a surprise.
Between the 3rd and 4th camps I worked at, I replaced my old-as-balls-iPod with a new iPod Touch. I've gotta say, I really didn't need any features besides playing music, but the Nano and Shuffle (or whatever the tiny ones are called, I don't even know) only come in up to like 16GB max, which... well, suffice to say, in 7 years I've grown used to 120GB+ and by default my library has about 60+ gigs of music that I want on a player. So. There's that. Also now I have like about 1000 songs I've apparently misplaced (on my computer) and I need to re-download a bunch of music from like 2007-2010. I've probably changed computers enough times to have lost the oldest music files...
I'm struggling with some concert stuff - there's a Pariisin Kevät concert the day we're supposed to travel to Tre for Tracon, and I kinda sorta REALLY REALLY WANT TO GO. But then I'd have to drive up at night and conventions tend to be very tiring even with a solid night's sleep. Sigh. Also, later in the year, Children of Bodom have a gig with Lamb of God as their support, which kind of makes me drool - and Sabaton is playing at Barona Arena apparently on the day I'm supposed to graduate. If that's not a sign saying I should go, I don't know what is.
Today I was downloading some random stuff I wanted back on my iPod, and since I just watched the latest Teens React - Lyrics Breakdown and it was about twenty one pilots, who I've been meaning to check out anyway, I decided to look into them a bit. And basically now I have their entire discography. Oh dear. Lane Boy in particular appeals to me - both the aesthetic of the video and the song. 21PFTW!
Wow, that acronym was so lame.
Anyway, my weekend is full of activity - Saapas patrol on Friday, mass training and Ant-Man on Saturday, and on Sunday there'll be confirmation mass and parties plus my friend's send-off to study in Hong Kong - and school's officially starting on Monday, so it might be a while until I post again! Toodles!
// I'll try to document the making of my Skyrim costume here as well, probably I'll end up doing a gigantic post like the one I made about Star Lord. Since that's pretty much the only post that sees any traffic on this blog, I figure it might be a functional way to kinda show what I'm building and how.
