When I go out of my way to do something productive, I have to balance it out with something equally as unproductive. I don't know why. It's in my nature. Or maybe slacking off is only as rewarding as the work I've escaped from. The best time to do nothing is right after doing something. It's all about balance. So I've been putting more effort into my job search, and by that, I mean putting together better cover letters than using old templates. I'll stop being a volume shooter and pick my spots carefully. I'll only shoot when I know what the score is, and right now, I'm way behind in the game.
I'm still trying to decide whether to galvanize myself for a position or allow a position to galvanize me. Somehow, one way or another, I'm gonna have to level up and advance to my next form.
My friend has finally found a job, and while it's not ideal, he can't afford to slack off when he's got bills to pay and wives to bring home. Since he has to get up early for orientation, we dabbled in some midday Battlefield. We moved away from China Rising and went OG into the classic maps. I gotta say, the team concept is definitely working. 4-1 ain't a bad record, especially when I was team MVP for the last match.
At night, I whittled away at Is the Order a Rabbit? The anime is so light and fluffy, I can just kick back and sink into warm feelings of moe. Don't look at me like I'm weird. I just enjoy a story with low stakes. Anyways, to balance out the fluffiness, I started the anime adaptation of The Irregular at Magic High School. I was so into it, I pretty much watched ten episodes straight. I really like stories with extremely competent--or perhaps overpowered--protagonists. I'm the type of guy who enjoys watching a professional work, although there's an odd charm about a noob stumbling his way through, but I admire skill above all.
To be a consummate professional is my aspiration. I can't think of anything classier.
