Uncompleted To Do Lists
I have been such a blob lately. I have become more organized with the help of my macbook, but at the same time I am not completing the things on my to do list. Every day the tasks pile higher and higher and I am running out of time to cross them all out.
It is very frustrating! I love making lists and plans, and seeing a nice full schedule chock full of nice things to do throughout the day. The only problem is that I will skip over things that I really do not want to do, and only do the things that I do want to do.
This can be okay every once in a while, but I feel that this is the reason why I have three bags of laundry to do tonight and a dirty room to clean. :/
It is time to buckle down and get down to business! The one thing that I learned through this organizing revolution is that it is very important to plan for fun things to do in your day. Otherwise you will get very overwhelmed with the tasks hanging over your head.
I hope to clear out my to do list by this weekend and try to stick with it all going forward!

Oh Hey, It’s Not Just Me
My whole life I’ve felt like I have great eyesight (and I still do). But lately I’ve been noticing what feels like…some slippage. Nothing big. Just this feeling in the morning like, as my brain and body wake up, my vision needs to as well. The strange nove...

A really well-produced 27-minute video from Super Splash Wave about 8-bit and 16-bit pixel art: What I liked about the video is that it doesn’t just revel in nostalgia, but goes deeper into some techniques and trends and details in the videogame graphics o...
