and it's lights up, boys

[muladhara]

All day I've been feeling like I should be doing something. I hate it when I feel like this, as I end up feeling all unsettled, and so don't manage to concentrate on anything for very long, and then I get mad at myself for not settling.

I'm trying to accept that sometimes I just have days like this, but it doesn't help when they're happening.

I have been playing Lightning Returns (except for this afternoon; maybe I should've done that). I am down to four days remaining. I discovered there were some new costumes available, and bought them all accordingly (I don't think I'll ever get the DLC ones, however).

I still have four days left, so I am sidequesting like nobody's business. I have wiped out five (I think) species at this point in time. Two on purpose, the rest accidentally. I seem to spend most of my time running around the Wildlands, because I think that is my favourite place. (Though honestly nothing beats sand surfing in the Dead Dunes. I would actually play an entire game of that).

In other games news, I bought a copy of Skyrim for Really Cheap because it had no manual. I have to admit, I have been wanting to play it for a while now, in spite of not liking Oblivion, and my intense dislike of fantasy-based (W)RPGS. Everyone seems to have so much fun in it, and I want to see if I can have fun in it, too!

I have a copy of the Raven King. I have only accidentally read five words in the entire book (because I haven't finished rereading the previous three yet). They are the final four words (which make no sense out of context), and "Matthew" (who is one of Ronan's brothers). I have been very restrained re: not flipping the heck through it to see what happens, though I have ideas about the climax now I've reread The Raven Boys.

I reordered my desk, so now I can do digital art more comfortably, except everything I seem to do seems to be annoying me, so I'm going to try painting for a bit and see how that goes instead.

I said to mum that the problem is that I want to be doing five different things at once. I want to be working on my latest angel picture, but I also want to draw, paint, read, and game.

Is Lightning Returns good? it's hard for me to not pick up that game because dat Lightning...

I like it a lot! It's certainly not a bad game, by any means. I think it could do with better pointers in how one goes about doing main quests (like NPCs being more helpful about where to go, what to do), and I think the plot leaves something to be desired, but I like how big the areas are, and the landscapes, and running about helping people. I even like all costumes (changeable costumes are one of my catnips), even if most of them are woefully skimpy (but I still like the design of most of them anyway).

The battle system is interesting, but I'm not sure I'm using it to its fullest ability.

I'd say it's definitely worth a go, though.

Looks like it's time to dust off the PS3!

Omg I hate that feeling... happens to me as well now and then :-/

It's horrible, isn't it? I wish I knew how to stop it.

If you ever figure it out then let me know!

[muladhara]

I will!
