Along with a little work to do and another exam, 6 free weeks lie ahead of me. So here is what I hope to do in my free time.
Easy goals first:

1. Get back into shape

I've been slacking with my usual Triathlon training this winter and need to get back into shape. This is the easiest, because for now I just want to get back to where I was before - 10,5km running 43 minutes, 2km swimming 35 minutes.

Not quite there yet


The goal this year is a Marathon in Octobre. Faster than 4 hours of course, preferrably below 3hours 30 minutes.

2. Learn to play Stairway to heaven



Not hard either, will probably be the first thing I finish. Been playing guitar for 2 years now, but am currently lacking goals to work for. After that I need more goals to achieve on my guitar, or otherwise I won't practice.

3. Finish Kaizo Mario

There is just something about that ROM hack that makes me want to play it, idk. So I'll try to finish it. In case you are wondering, I am talking about this:



I am not as manly and pro in Mario as that guy, so I will be using savestates, but not more than 10 per level (did the switch palace with 1). Otherwise the game would piss me off too much to finish it . I'm currently in the third level, shouldn't be too hard to do either, but still harder than the first two.
After this is done, tthere is still Kaizo Mario 2.

4. C on Iccup

Now we're talking. Getting to the midst of the yellow ranks on the most competitive place on the internet. Definately my hardest goal, all I ever got was D+. To add to that, the season ends March 1st. That means, if I don't get there earlier, I will have a lot harder time.

This is a recent TvP replay of me and I guess I never played better than in that game. If you are wondering, this should give you an idea, of how good (or bad for that matter, depending on point of view ) I am at this game.

I guess I have a lot of work to do in all areas of my game: micro, macro, multitasking and decision making. However, first I need to decide which match-ups I play finally. I chose Terran, because they appeal the most to me, which coincidentally worked quite well due to me liking the way the match-ups play.

For the vT though I am unsure of wether I want to play TvT or ZvT. TvT is a fun match-up, however sometimes I don't know what I am doing, and when I have no clue what I am doing I usualy win.
ZvT the only thing I can really do is muta micro, due to playing a muta micro ums. I enjoy most aspects of ZvT though.

I will probably stick to TvT, because I guess it is easier to learn, since a good amount of the mechanics translate from the other Terran match-ups.

Obligatory lame Protoss joke which is only here so no one of you has to:
+ Show Spoiler +
If I fail, I can always 1a2a3a my way to B-, ez



So, let's get it on

Sounds good man,
I checked out that Super Mario Mod video, that was pretty intense. Good luck with that :o
I couldn't sit there and do that, but it does look like a lot of fun.

And C on ICCUP seems like it'll take a lot of motivation but it should be doable.
Have fun

Haha, Super Mario World was my favorite SNES game, and I played through it so many times. Playing it lately I noticed I was still able to easily go through it, so I needed a challenge. I remembered seing those videos, and thought this will be appropriate.

It might be a lot harder than I thought though, after finishing the 3rd and starting to try the 4th I must admit, some sequences are insane. And it only gets worse from there.
