I started streaming SC2 arcade games, because I was not happy laddering last night. I was playing the newly featured Angry Angry Templar game, which is a blast, by the way. I played a game with a guy we'll call teal.
Now teal was an interesting fellow. He would constantly make an excuse every time he died. "Ope, my chair tipped over." "Dude, my mouse broke." It went on like this the whole game. After the game, he messaged me because I had called him out on it. Then, because I was streaming and I'm desperate for A viewer, I plugged the stream to him. So, he started watching, we got to talking, and he ended up joining our Skype call for the night. He played a 1v1 with Joraiem and got wrecked.
I kind of felt bad. It was like it was his first game out of the campaign. But teal didn't complain, and he stuck it out. Oh well, someone's gotta be Bronze. My father was gracious and let me stay up an extra hour because he's freaking awesome. We played some more, then stopped.
We went our separate ways, he left the call,and I went to bed.
I got up, said screw you to the shower again, and slept an extra 20 minutes. Then my dad came in and ruined it. He was completely innocent, he didn't know I had purposefully slept past my alarm, but he ended my bliss. So, not being able to get back to sleep, I got up and played a couple rounds of Quake. I got dressed, left, and faced the day.
Now, today was not a normal day. Because parent/teacher conferences were yesterday and today, we had a half-day today. We also have no school tomorrow, which is why I'm still awake. But since it was a half-day, all of my classes were only half an hour long. I'm glad they were, I was tired.
Nothing much interesting happened, except that I kept going flat in choir.
I got home around 11:30 and just chilled. I went and photoshopped a personal logo picture to drop on my stream. It was awful, but I am bad at photoshopping and I love the thing.

The Latin is supposed to say "Forever Fighting" but I can't for the life of me find a reliable translation. Seriously, if any of you can do better than Google Translate (Not what I used, but the same principle. It wasn't from someone who knew the language, it was a program), please help!
I showed my friends, and they're saying, "Great, now make the group one!" That sucks. Like I said, I'm bad. Besides, our group can't just steal one race's image and use it. We can't even use the "Roll the Dice" Random image. We need something unique, and I can't deliver that.
If any of y'all could come up with something neat for Clan Valorous Demise, it'd be much appreciated.
I feel like I'm asking for a lot of input.... Oh well, I need it.
I recorded a 20 minute part of a Minecraft playthrough for awhile. Took me two tries and it was still awful. It is, however, the first YouTube video I've ever uploaded. I'm glad that the process is, at least, started.
I'm not happy that the first video was anything but Starcraft, but I am a bad caster, and laddering is not fun to watch in the YouTube format.
Then I responded, at last, to an email from Olive from Northville. She was in the philosophy club with me and, like I've said before, sought me out to see how I was. She responded quickly to me, and we shot a couple back and forth across the day. Which reminds me, I owe her another.
It's strange... I'm sitting here listening to Rich Mullins and talking about people coming to find me. Life got boring, fast. In a good way. A non-tedious, more... melodic way. It feels more like I live out in rural farmland and I'm just whiling away my hours on the front porch, with nothing to do since the harvest has come in. I adore this state of life, and pray it ends not quickly. I feel immortal (Although I know I am not) but only in the sense that everything feels like it will just go on being this way. On the contrary, I'm at the time in my life where things change the most. I just feel... peaceful. Rested.
I didn't feel rested half an hour ago, though. Some of the guys and I were playing League (Damn I play a lot of games, I've mentioned four of many in this blog alone), and we played four 40-60 minute games. The first three were intense, back and forth action that we pulled out with amazing kills. The fourth, we had... some difficulties with our top lane. They got an early kill lead, and it all snowballed. Our carry couldn't feed, and we were screwed late game.
First time in a while I've been frustrated to the point of anger, but I attribute most of my pissiness to being tired, which I am in abundance. We had fun, though (Well, I did, at least).
So here I sit. I'm hanging out in my room, my dad is asleep, and I feel like the only person in the world. I feel and island in the ever rolling ocean. I know I am not, but I revel in the present revulsion of the world. I take comfort and solace in my solitude, and I envy not he who wastes a time like this being bored or lonely.
But I must wrap this up, lest you get bored and rate this a 1 (God forbid. ). So, if anyone knows a good English to Latin translation of "Forever Fighting" or can think of a good clan logo for a multiraced "Valorous Demise," I would much appreciate it.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am off, and will torture you no more with my typing. Farewell, and have a lovely evening.
