Final Stretch Part II

    Classes have just ended. I have finally submitted in all leftover assignments and what not. It is time... to face my final battle... The Final Exams. If I do not fail, I am finally finished with my undergraduate studies.

Fourth Attempt

  Wooo, Steam sale! Got myself two games:

  1. Darkest Dungeon (I didn't get the DLC though, I wanna play through the base game first before getting all the DLCs)
  2. Into the Breach (Turn-based mech action? Made by the guy who made FTL? Count me in!)
  Have not played Into the Breach yet, gonna play Darkest Dungeon first. It feels like the enemies are kind of "sentient", they are constantly going for my glass cannons. Please! For the love of it, go for the crusader standing right in front! Don't go for the healer at the third row, or the arbalest equipped with the super rare trinket that boosts her attack damage, they can't take much damage! Other thing is, you start the game with two characters: the crusader fella and the highwayman fella. Oh boy, my highwayman can't hit anything. When he hits, he crits! Nice! Unfortunately, he keeps on missing (or the enemies keep on dodging his attacks), really annoying! 

  So they have this light system, where it gets darker every time you move. And as it gets darker, the system basically starts stacking against you. You can counteract this effect by keeping the place lit by using torches. Unfortunately, torches takes up space in the inventory. There are also abilities that also when used in combat, increases light by a small amount. Then there's the crusader, who has the ability to basically +25 light (out of 100) while in combat. Can only be used once per combat, but light doesn't keep on ticking down when you're in combat.Theoretically speaking, if I put two crusaders with the protect skill, I technically don't need any torches right? Since both of them would +50 light / battle.

A bad time for a burnout

  As you know, I got food poisoning on Friday, so I missed all my classes and my work shifts on that day. Apparently that day is pretty important in terms of classes because I have a midterm on Thursday and it covers until the Friday class.

  I originally have an assignment due on Tuesday (today) too, so I kind of prioritize the assignment over the midterm preparation. Makes sense right? Seeing as the assignment's deadline is before the midterm. I figured that I could finish the assignment ASAP and then start studying for my upcoming midterm.

  I spent the entire weekend and Monday on the assignment. It has 8 questions in it and I just couldn't the do the last 4 questions, it was just extremely difficult. I kept on thinking: "I don't think we've learned this yet!" On Monday, I finally got to make an appointment with him in the evening. You can imagine right now I am extremely stressed out. The assignment is due on the following day and I have 50% of the assignment left to do and I only have the entire evening/night time to work on it. Not just that, I haven't even begin studying for my midterm on Thursday yet. At this point of time, my old good friend, migraine, returned. My head was just throbbing, I was super stressed and panicky right now.

It be like this sometimes

  Woke up around 6:30am needing to take a number 2. Ugh, how annoying! When suddenly, my body went cold, my head's throbbing, and my stomach don't stop aching. Uh oh, please don't tell me its food poisoning.

It's food poisoning.

Busy

Very busy times. Head throbbing experience.

Work ain't going very well either. I now truly understand what "creative differences" is; and whew, it ain't fun.

Logic games and a nice Saturday

  Lately, I've been into logic puzzles or what not. I've been downloading a bunch of riddles and puzzles apps on my phone, been playing them on my spare time. I started properly playing this video game called "Antichamber" too. I just recently unlocked the yellow gun, which enables you to drag puzzle pieces. Unlocking that gun made me went: "oooh! I can now easily go back and work on all those other puzzles that I couldn't before!" That game has no direction whatsoever, which at times, makes me extremely annoyed. Even now, I am stuck at some places.

  There's these puzzles called "climbing the tower", where you kind of climb a tower but not really? Anyway, strangely, I have unlocked puzzle 1-5, and 7! There's no 6! Strange! I couldn't solve puzzle 5 and 7 so I think maybe that's the next gun?

  I've always liked all these logic puzzles and what not, that's why I even bought all those "Sherlock Holmes" puzzle books. But now, I don't know... I like it.
