equilibrium~ (aka life update aaaah)

Felt like I should explain my semi-absence once again... it boils down to two, maybe three factors, so I'll jump right into it:

 

1) the most important part is my aaaaaaah-pplication for a PhD position! Dunno if they'll choose me, but we'll see. I'll probably apply for another position or two, depends on when I get my nerves back. Seriously, those past two weeks were... not so fun. In the sense of stress, anxiety and fear of the future almost blocking me and causing some serious, serious headaches. But today I uploaded the application, so that's set.

 

2) My childhood decided to return to punch me in the face - aka I am currently hugely into Yu-Gi-Oh again, which is funny, really. Completely forgot how much I loved this as a kid (*cough* and still do). So, I've been playing some Duel Links, re-watching the Anime (that. lineart. gah.), and drawing -some- fanart xD

 

--

So yeah, I'm still having headaches at this point, but things are getting better, I guess. :) Sorry for the absence, too. It should get better now that the holidays are approaching ^^

Oh no way, I just started getting into my Yu-Gi-Oh nostalgia phase too. I guess Duel Links does that, huh? I even almost bought some new cards for the first time in like ten years, but then thought better of it =P

 

Best of luck with your application! I hope the stress eases before too long.

Yep, I do think it's the app's fault ^^ (I did buy some cards IRL... xD )

 

Thanks! :)

Ooh, what'd you get?

 

I was looking at some of the newer cards, and I have absolutely no idea how to actually play this game anymore xD I stopped playing around the time Synchro monsters got introduced, and now there's Pendulum monsters, XYZ monsters, all sorts of weird fusion monsters that you don't actually fusion summon but instead need specific spell cards that I don't quite understand... I'm completely lost xD

My brother a couple of his friends still play Yu-Gi-Oh, wins some small money at locsl tournaments; and on Friday there was someone behind my table at work that was practicing Yu-Gi-Oh. it's still living strong! (Not into it myself but that's doesn't mean the game is bad)

Eh, just some random starter packs from amazon (I think it was XYZ Symphony and Space-Time Showdown) Which was also my first introduction to XYZ and Pendulum Monsters, and tbh I still need those quock guides that came with the packs when actually playing with these cards xD

There's also a larger guide online somewhere, but yeah, all those new monster types, that's a bit confusing ^^'

Heh, I don't think I'd ever enter a tournament :lol: It's a fun game, tho. Silly at times, but great fun. :)

Okay, after this I decided to treat myself and got some new cards anyway =P I got the Legendary Dragon Decks set, which comes with all those new types of monsters (and not a single piece of instructions). Time to nerd out and learn this game again I guess xD

Oh my, I just saw Link monsters for the first time, and the new field and extra deck summoning rules. Yikes! The game has changed even more than I thought. Diving back into this is actually kinda exciting ^^

It has changed a lot, yes. I still try to find a way of using any of these new monster types effectively (specifically Pendulum+XYZ monsters...)... it's definitely changed a lot ^^
