JOURNAL: 8bit_samurai

  • Well... 2008-07-18 22:14:51 It wasn't the weather that slowed down my internets, or at least the uploading part. I may have to fiddle around with the antenna, but I dunno. Shit. I ain't the type to call customer service. Not that I'm arrogant, but every time I talk with CS or something similar, I kinda feel like I done something bad, or wrong or something. Not really guilt, but something similar. I haven't touched my editor really, but just about everything else, and I'm liking it. Well, I guess that's about it for now. 
  • La La Laa 2008-07-17 23:55:03 Damn rain slowing my internets. Been raining practically all month.

    On the plus side, 2 gigs is > than 256 mb. What used to take at least 45 minutes now take less than a minute.

    Had to erase some footage to make room for new footage. Was very hesitant, but what had to be done had to be.

    Sigh. I could be doing more right now, but I ain't motivated to do so.

    I think I need to sleep moar :/ 
  • Well... 2008-07-15 05:30:02 I know where I'm at financially, so maybe that'll lighten a load off my back. Now I just need to reorganize some files and such, which maybe I can get done tomorrow, After that, I think I can start editing, or prepping. Something AMV related. I gotta say, if it wasn't for the remix thanks to the Second Best I probably wouldn't be motivated to find out where I'm at financially. I been at it all day, but somehow I'd get sidetracked. I can't express my gratitude enough for the song, so thanks again Second Best.

    I have some thoughts on some other stuff, but not right now. I've getting less sleep thanks to my new laptop, and now I need to sleep. Or at least try and force myself or something. So... Yea. Til next time. 
  • Why? 2008-07-14 04:58:54 Again, I am plagued with the lack of motivation. Though unlike other times where it was due to having no or little ambition, which I just realized recently, it's indecision. I have quite a bit of things to do, but I dunno where to start. Hmm. Sigh. Shit. Hell, I'm not even motivated to finish this journal entry. Where should I start? I dunno, maybe I'm starting to realize what's going on and where I'm at and stuff. I dunno. I think I need some time off work to reevaluate my life or something. 
  • hmmhmhm 2008-07-12 08:26:46 It's good to be back online, though it seems something's change. I dunno, the giant cosmos plants weren't around last time :/ I think they're cosmos plants. They're suppose to be flowers but they're about as tall as me. It's like they're small trees or something.

    Even with a DVD R/RW Burner, I haven't burned a CD yet. I haven't installed my editor yet. I have all the other software needed. I am unmotivated even with a new laptop that was 10 times the laptop my old one was. Hell, 100 times more of a laptop.

    But if it wasn't for my old laptop I probably wouldn't have joined this site. If I haven't joined this site I wouldn't have gotten into AMVs. If I hadn't gotten into AMVs I woulda had about $150.00 more to spend on video games and even helluvalotta more hours playing them. I'd probably would've beaten MGS4 twice by now. I probably would've challenged my friends to MGO since they've gotten tired of me kicking their ass on Smash Bros Brawl and Team Fortress 2. Which means if I hadn't joined this site I probably would have a PS3 and a Wii with a buncha games for 'em. Probably. Maybe. At least a PS3. And a helluvalotta better laptop. Maybe.

    Well, I know I had given my old laptop a name, but I forgot it. It might be somewhere in my older journal entries but I'm too lazy to search for it. So as a farewell gift, I'm giving her a new name. Ash Lee. Ash as in Ashton Digital and Lee as in Bruce Lee, though she didn't have anything to do with him. Ash Lee, you outlasted many people's expectations. When I first gotten you, your battery didn't work. Then, mysteriously one hinge broke. Well, not really I just forgot how it broke. But the other hinge broke from, well, I forgot how it broke too. But it was one of my nephew's who did it. Even with your hinges broken, you still served a purpose. You worked just as good, you just needed something to set your monitor against. Later on your DVD drive started to fail to start, though a restart would fix it temporarily. It was only a minor inconvenience since it only happened every now and then. As time went by, some of your keys stopped working. As I tried to fix it I only made it worse, causing the whole keyboard to be completely dysfunctional. It was okay, since I had an old keyboard from an old desktop. At one point you had a companion. An external DVD burner, but just like one of your hinges he was rendered useless from one of my nephews. Or one of their friends. It was alright though. I may have stressed you out from all that video editing and rendering. I also tried to force you to play mp4s, something that took just about all you had just to play a couple minutes of video. For that I am sorry. If I hadn't force you to play them, I'm pretty sure you might have that much more of a life span. I do not know your true age, for the friend I bought you from didn't know your age either. We figured you might be from the year 2001, though it is a mere guess. You outlived his expectations. Though we been through quite a bit, it was my high expectations and me neglecting the signs of your declination that lead to your downfall. For that, I am sorry. I know you are not truly dead. If it wasn't for your malfunctioning DVD drive you can be revived. But that isn't the case, and for that, I am sorry as well. It is as if you are in eternal slumber, and I hope in your slumber your dreams are pleasant. We had good times, and may those good times continue in your dreams. Good night, sweet princess.



    Profile updated. Sort of. Still working on the pic. Not really just procrastinating on making it. :/
