Tonight has been a good night purely because of what /should/ happen tomorrow =]

 Painted half a Cybork and it turns out th steroids I was prescribed weren't needed! They were horrible anyway.

Also, I think I've rekindled a friendship with someone I didn't think I'd be friends with again, hopefully things might start going better for them since I've heard they are pretty depressed at the moment.

Haven't been to the arcade in Latias's! I went to one 2 days ago, played "Stackers" -- a game everyone says is impossible in winning one of the major prizes. So, it looked like this:

                           _________
                          MAJOR PRIZE
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           -------------
                          MINOR PRIZE
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |
                           |              |[][][]                                         
There's a Start/Stop button and a Select Prize one. When Start is pressed, a group of blocks [][][] appears at the bottom, and it moves in between the "|      |" 's that represent the ends of the screen. In between the "|     |" 's is a faint grid that shows every place the [][][] cubes can land. So as the cubes are moving around the grid, the player has to press Start/Stop to place them somewhere across where they are moving about. Once that is done, more moving cubes appear on a level higher than the places ones. And the [][][] cubes subtract as the player continues to stack them on higher levels, so [][][] later becomes [][] which then becomes []. So I kept stacking and stacking...


                           _________
                          MAJ[]R PRIZE     <- This is where everybody loses... but Oh!!!
                           |        []   |
                           |        []   |
                           |        []   |
                           |        []   |
                           -------[]----
                               MIN[]R PRIZE
                           |        []    |
                           |     [][]     |
                           |     [][]     |
                           |     [][]     |
                           |   [][][]    |
                           |   [][][]    |

Also if this happens,

  [][] <- This side cube drops because it's not completely straight.
[][]

But I got lucky there with concentration and quick reflexes and stopped the last, high-speed moving block in the right place... and the major prize I won was a new computer that uncurled itself from inside the machine and dropped down.

A new computer that I won from an arcade game that's very impossible? Wow. The other major prizes in there were a 3DS, an eReader, a music player, iPad. I'm no arcade person and that was only my second time playing, and damn was I lucky.

Are you interested in spriting, or improving it?

 I'm getting better, I'm hyped to go back to college and I should be sorting out my provisional drivers license which I've wanted since about last April when me and the family went up to Gretna.

Looking forward to driving, the thing is, I actually am looking forward to driving.

EDIT: Oh, I also got my first gold gun on Blops 2 earlier, pretty good seeing that I've only just reached level 55 after playing since release.

Not impossible per-say. The arcade owner can adjust the frequency of "Grand Prize" winners. Assuming everyone plays perfectly and reaches the last row, with just one more block to the grand prize, there's a minimum 1 in 800 chance that someone will win. Every other time, the game forces a loss by simply cheating.
On that note, congrats for winning and only paying probably around 1% of the cost of the computer!
