Skipping school today with parental approval. I think it's kinda dumb that I can legally drop out, drive, and vote but can't call myself out of school for the day.
Mostly stayed home because I am exhausted and haven't had a day entirely to myself in a little while. I need days where I just stay home all day or I will freak tf out, and I will be having much less of those due to being employed now so may as well stay home once in a while on days where there isn't much happening at school. I will be missing seeing one of my friends for the first time in over a week, though, since she has been out for awhile. I have missed her so so much but I couldn't get myself out of bed this morning so I will just have to see her tomorrow.
I had DND yesterday aswell! I DM a very homebrew campaign for my friends and we just fuck around for an hour and a half afterschool on Mondays. I have noticed that the less I plan, the better sessions go. Yesterday was probably the best it has ever gone and I didn't even plan anything, I just had a sentence of what they did last time and the rest was winged. Gonna try to plan less and less and see how it goes, since it is working out currently. The players are figuring out how to do stuff as a team now and it makes me very excited to watch them figure things out completely on their own by just talking to each other and trying to figure out how to get past what I throw at them. Having lots of fun, can't talk about the secrets here because one of my friends who is in the campaign also has a neocities and I don't want him finding out. Basically they are at a hotel and all have baggage and there r creepy things going on.
Spending my day off planning an animatic and watching Stampy minecraft videos from 2013. I am watching the "Quest to Have Fun" videos. I kind of remember watching them when I was younger, I was a stampy minecraft youtuber kinda kid. My dad HATED him, though, she would just not stop complaining about how annoying she found him. Looking back on it, he isn't annoying at all, my dad is just kind of a jerk. It gives me whiplash seeing minecraft youtubers from today vs how it was in 2013. The 2013 videos are so chill and nice, with very little editing. It is relaxing, I used the quest to kill the enderdragon series to fall asleep the other day and when I woke up it was still playing. Minecraft today is so overhwelming that being able to compare the two makes me sad. It explains how my younger brother acts, I Guess. He is a very typical 6 year old who watches typical 6 year old stuff and I honestly might try to get him to shift more towards older Minecraft lets play and see if he chills out a bit more.
ANIMATIC!! Never done an animatic before, which is surprising because of how many i have mentally planned. I just didn't know how to source music when I was first starting to think about them like a decade ago, but now I know how to use capcut and screen record, so I am very powerful. It is an oc animatic for my lady Martha, the song is Square and it is pretty word for word to who Martha is. She is this very religious victorian lady who is a bit of a Miss Don't Touch Me brothel girl, and the song relates to her relationship with her roommate and her family in general. She is a side character but she is very important to me, so she gets the first animatic. Best part is that her song is Square, and there is another song on the same album called Circle that works with her roomate/friend/fwb/lover, Helena. It is awesome and perfect if you are me. Goal for today is to finish planning the entire thing and sketching it out, which is doable since I got about 1/3 planned out yesterday in a few hours.
To do for today is finish plotting animatic, do some laundry, bake cookies, shower, and finish a few chapters of Malcolm X for school. Super doable!!
