11.35pm
just got a callup notice. finally!
i'm to report for a "Briefing (Workplan Seminar Cum Cohesion)" at Mandai Hill Camp on 21st May.
what on earth does that mean?
and what on earth is there for an armour spec to do at mandai hill camp?
also: i have to cut my hair in two months. i must treasure these times.
oh, and they say to report in no. 4 dress. which i will assume is smart 4. but do i go in the old uniform? i think my father used his ecredit to buy one of hte new ones for me.
i'm choking on these terms. smart 4. ecredit. fuck.

for
four thousand dollars, i can buy all that stuff!
and that's less than the fucking 5k that wacom wants for a cintiq.
going to fail
12.40am
so there's a buttload of scrap wood lying around the studio and the workshop. some people just don't know useful shit when they see it.
i made a shotgun out of all the trash.
can you tell the difference!
i wish a lathe, milling machine, belt sander and bandsaw would fall from the sky. then i'd quit school and spend all day making stupid shit.
living the dream.
stop crashing

1.32am
hilarious anti-piracy on the new pokemon game. by hilarious i mean blood-curdlingly annoying.
at first it seemed like random freezes, linked loosely to time. eventually i realised a pattern, and it seemd like i'd figured it out: it was 21 area transitions before the game would freeze. annoying, but actually livable, since i normally save so often anyway. then the game froze before my estimated time. realised battles and events counted too. and then the number seemed to drop in half. and then after the third gym, the game froze every three area transitions.
gave up, went online.
- Defined "events" as "when you enter/exit a building/stairs/door or save or encounter a wild pokemon or start a trainer fight or end a battle (get back to the game) or when you end a cutscene"
- The number of events "needed" before the game freezes depend of the number of badges you havegood job, nintendo.
- You replace x with the number of badges you have, and you find : 0 badges 24 events, 1 badges 21 events, 2 badges 15 event, 3 badges 3 events, more badges you have a negative value and the game do not want to load the save
good job, nintendo. good job, the guy who went to the fourth gym. or maybe he just loaded his jap save file, i've heard that works.
oh well, now to wait for a patch. hope my save file still works. magikarp is my highest leveled pokemon at 17, closely followed by jolteon at 16 and zubat at 14. my 'starter' was lvl 5 when i abandoned him at the daycare. i'll get him back when he's 100.
