Fish ‘n’ chips

Hello from Monday

How’ve you guys been? Let me know, Id like to know.

Remember what I mentioned about university last time? Yea turns out I’m admitting to the UK now, sweet :). Thing is, my family practically put me on trial when they found out I was happy to go, main question being “why didn’t you say anything?”. Thing is, before we decided on this, America and Canada were both out of the picture since they’re too far and they didn’t trust me in a foreign country so different from Riyadh, and Germany was out for a different number of reasons. They definitely didn’t SAY I couldn’t go to Europe of course, but the general discussion around the topic would lead you to believe so. Also, I just kind of forgot :p. I didn’t really have a problem with going to Lebanon aside from the dangers of war, But given how much better life will inevitably be for me in the united kingdom, I’m more than happy to switch over. In fact, I don’t want to go back on the decision :). Will have to take the IELTS of course, but that being my only roadblock is more than alright.

On that note, how hard is the test really gonna be? I hear mixed opinions, but most say it’s easy. I’m not sure. Took a practice test yesterday and easily the hardest part of it was the writing, I just don’t know how to rate my own writing capability. ESPECIALLY when describing diagrams. Writing persuasive essays are simple, in general elaborating on your opinion in any written format is just fine assuming good grammar and structure, but I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to diagrams. I’ll talk to my English counselor about it and see what he thinks, it probably isn’t as hard as I make it out to be but the support on it will help.

Anyways, just hit plat 2 on Valorant today. Nice. Cant lie, don’t think it’d be anywhere near as easy without the duo, but I’m not complaining Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―. Game has been fun, but I’m not sure how long ill continue to be honest, or if I even should. It’s fun, but ill definitely start tuning it down from however many matches a day to 2 or 3.

also FINALLY finished bomb rush cyberfunk, honestly missed the game. Its such a fun time. Just mess around for a while and groove to music. Also, rollerblades over skateboards any day, no contest. More Hideki music is always sick too, and modded skins are amazing, I love it.

NOW, lets talk about different medium for a little bit. I watched till episode 6 of Smiling Friends, and have a couple of other shows I want to start and get back into, lets just start at smiling friends though. It’s aids. WHO MADE THIS????? It’s so weird, but oddly enough I’m really enjoying it. For one, the animation is really good, but the comedy is way more a hit than it does miss, I like it. Sure sometimes I find it just kinda gross, but otherwise things tie together really neatly by the end of each episode. And yes, I am referring to the renaissance men, I don’t know why that being how they end the episode with the frowning friends was so fucking funny to me. Happy there’s more to watch, but also happy to say I cant recommend this shit to almost anyone I know.

Have been watching Avatar the Last Airbender for my sister for quite a while now, got to season 2 last week. It’s really fun too watching the group go on adventures together. Sokka is EASILY the best character in the show AND I DONT WANNA HEAR IT, biggest lovable goof. If he learned to waterbend, he’d solo the whole fire nation, no contest. Cant wait to watch it again.

Off topic too, but the gravity falls resurgence IS FUCKING AWESOME. Honestly wanna go back and rewatch it, its been so many years I barely remember any of it, I might as well.

That’s all for animated TV for now, for the real stuff I still haven’t continued watching breaking bad or Better Call Saul, both I’ll get back to watching I’m sure but not anytime soon. They’re objectively AMAZING don’t get me wrong, just don’t have the urge to watch either. I have some other stuff in mind though. I could watch some old star wars movies, those always seemed cool. I’d like to get around to watching some well regarded movies too, like interstellar or the godfather. For shows, I’ve really wanted to watch the walking dead series. I know it’s long, but I’ve always been a sucker for the post apocalyptic zombie games and series, and the telltale walking dead games were amazing in their own right. That, and I already watched some episodes back in school breaks, so that seems like the most likely right now. But easily THE MOST RECOMMENDED show that people have wanted me to watch, from my Valorant duo, another friend and classmate, is You. You???? YOU??????? I watched some of the first episode in class when some classmates put it up to watch, and the premise IS FUCKING ABHORRENT. WHY???? WHY WOULD I WANNA WATCH THIS GUY STALK WOMEN????? So many people are saying it’s amazing, even favorite show OF ALL FUCKING TIME, and I have no idea why. I’ll give it a shot sure, but honestly, I’m not sure ill like it. It’s probably a good trainwreck, not in the sense that its a bad show you cant stop watching, but that your not supposed to like the premise, and still find the show entertaining. The main character isn’t supposed to be relatable or redeemable, the show just shows his antics and is a good edge of your seat experience. At least, that’s what I’m envisioning from the very little I saw and heard. Still though, it’s ridiculously high on people’s must watch lists, and I really do wanna get more into the live action TV, since I feel like I’ve watched way too many animated series in comparison (still love them all to death though <3). So sure, Ill watch it and see how it goes. From my very limited viewing so far, Mr. Robot is still easily my favorite ever tv show, but I’m excited to see if that changes. Not with YOU, hell no, but if by watching more tv shows ill find more media that I resonate with.

We’ll see how that goes, but that’s all for now. Thanks for reading so far, I enjoyed making this. Bye for now πŸ™‚
