This game is fun, but I never know how much sense any given task is going to make…

(I believe the first comment on this was me trying to give an example of what I meant: there's one part where you can put one piece of candy [or presumably any other food item] in an empty vending machine and that somehow makes it a completely full vending machine overflowing with food items besides just candy, so you'd think if THAT can happen in the game, then at another part with the sorority girl who's looking for her helmet, just writing "helmet" and giving her that helmet would work, but it didn't. Both of these are probably pretty early in the game since I didn't play Scribblenauts all that much...)

(And of course, Nintendo answered her question later that year! :P )

...and after that, I didn't post to Miiverse at all (except possibly replies to other people's posts since those aren't included in the backup?) from the 11th to the 17th, which at the time was my longest hiatus from Miiverse just by being my first more-than-a-day-long hiatus. I was probably busy moving into the dorm again and getting ready for the spring 2013 semester of college. :)
matt1993: (updated prtsc land me)
Four things to mention:

1) I moved into my dorm today... and it was REALLY stressful, as usual. :( And I have so much to do tomorrow... I know I said I'd move into the dorm Monday, but then I found out I'd get to wait later before I moved in.
2) Last Wednesday was the 9th anniversary of the original version of PrtSc Land, and I still don't have a USB floppy drive. So remember how I said I was planning on remaking PSL and putting it up on LiveJournal starting on the 10th or 12th or (some other nice number)th anniversary? It's probably not going to be for the 10th anniversary...
3) Lately I've been working on an Excel spreadsheet with the dates, subject lines, userpic keywords, URLs, etc. of every entry I've posted on LiveJournal - AND notes on what I hope to update in each entry eventually, like adding tags, fixing broken images, etc. so that I can keep track of it all more easily. It's far from being done (even just for entries in my own journal), but I'm hoping to get all that maintenance I've been meaning to do on my old entries finished as soon as I can!
4) Today is the 8th anniversary of my LiveJournal! And, for once, I'm doing the LJ comment stats entry on time!
Although on my computer, bar graphs have lately been looking messed up in entries like this one. Does it do that for anyone else - in this or the other LJ Comment Stats entries?

I only waited until five days after the 7th anniversary of my LJ this time - and since the actual 7th anniversary was on the day I packed everything for college and the day after that was when I moved back into the dorm, I actually had a legitimate reason for putting it off two of those days! Go me!

(Though right now I am too lazy to tag this entry, link to the 2013 results, or edit that entry to link to this one. And the delay does mean that [livejournal.com profile] pickleboot and I are credited with one more comment each than we would have if I'd done this on the actual anniversary)

Repost 5 days later than you intend to
matt1993: (strong bad not taped to tv)
You've probably noticed that I haven't worked on making my userpics more legible in a while and still haven't uploaded the ones that I've managed to make legible enough as userpics. Or posted anything else in a while.

And not only has my self-imposed requirement of "check my friends page at least once every 3 days unless there's a legitimate reason to wait longer than that" resulted in me usually only checking it exactly once every 3 days, there was one time that I accidentally waited 4 days before checking it again because throughout the third day, I only remembered that it was the third day while I happened to not be at my dorm or have something else to do first. (And you probably thought I've done that more than once, because on most entries that I read, I'm not sure if there's anything I can say in a comment that will add to the discussion...)


Indeed, the past week or so was kind of like much of last semester - I've had so much to do half the time that I sometimes ended up preferring to play video games instead of working on any of these things the rest of the time.

I've managed to work on them some of the time, though - I've been reading my autism books and working on the list of things I'm worried about (since a couple of times this semester, I was once again as depressed as I was when the Forbidden Comment Threads were actually taking place), and a few times, I worked on the program to make vague versions of my userpics that I said I'd like to use if I start a dream journal.


I'm not sure what the point of this entry was, but regardless, here it is.

Accidentally wait four days until reposting this

:(

I go back to the dorm tomorrow, and classes start a week from now. :(

Hopefully I can get up early enough for my 8:00 classes and stay caught up on homework...

Wish me luck, even though it probably won't help
matt1993: (pass)
Well, I'm finally in my dorm room and most of my stuff is organized!!

At first, I was just as confused (maybe even more so) as I was on my overnight visit a while ago, but now I think I'm starting to get used to it! :)

Move this entry into your journal-dorm
matt1993: (conga of the apocalypse)
Last day before I move into my dorm...

This is how I feel:

EDIT IN 2018: It was an orchestral remix of the Super Mario World castle theme but the video is gone now :( Any YouTube result for "super mario world castle orchestra" would also fit but it probably wouldn't be the video that was here originally.

Procrastinate, then eventually get to work on, reposting this entry
matt1993: (no-edged sword)
(what I wanted to put for the music tag: "Dr. Mario - Chill (SSBB version), Super Mario Galaxy - Speedy Comet and Final Bowser, Enya - Cursum Perficio backwards, and Sarah McLachlan - Black all at once and in G Major")

I visited the college that I am the most interested in from Sunday to Monday, staying overnight in the dorm (like I'd done before at another college).

Although the first day was pretty good, the second day ruined it for me. It all started when the fire alarm went off at 12:30 AM for no reason. Once I realized that it wasn't just imagination, I was hit with the realization that I hadn't quite memorized the fire escape route, so my plan was to just run through random hallways on the floor I was on until I either found the elevator (because I hadn't remembered "oh yeah, I can't use the elevator during a fire or fire drill" yet) or someone who knew where it was. Fortunately, this was actually much sooner than I expected - I heard some guy's voice so I followed him down the stairs and outside the building. Even though there wasn't a fire - the fire alarm came on by accident - it was clear from right then that I wouldn't get anywhere near enough sleep that night, since breakfast was at 7 and I hadn't even fallen asleep once yet. Especially since, in my no-common-sense hurry to get out of my room, I forgot to take my room key with me and ended up having to borrow the master key. Which I accidentally used to open the door to the room next to mine at first.

And, as expected, I briefly woke up and went back to sleep several times starting at 6, eventually becoming awake enough to get up at around 7:30 or 8. By then, my roommate was already gone, and only a few people were downstairs, none of whom knew where to go either. I ended up missing breakfast completely - and I thought I was late that one time at Camp El Tesoro when I got to breakfast just a few minutes before it was over! Throughout the rest of the day, I also got separated from my group and ended up lost 3 more times. :(

The lack of common sense apparently didn't end after the trip was over, either - I somehow managed to post even more comments in [livejournal.com profile] asperger that I ended up regretting despite the fact that:

A) I didn't even mention a cure for autism this time, and
B) I had a feeling it would happen just like I knew this, this, and the fact that I probably haven't heard from Schrödinger's Enya in awhile because I acted like the paparazzi countless times would.

Will I ever say anything that I won't end up regretting? :'(

Speaking of those comments in asperger, people there have pointed out that "creative tumors" isn't a good term for, well, creative tumors because it's kinda unpleasant-sounding, but I can't think of anything better. Do any of you have any ideas?

Things that won't work for a renaming of creative tumors:
- daydreaming (that would imply that I am creative enough to come up with these ideas almost constantly, rather than every now and then randomly)
- creative spasms (saying "4 or 5 years ago, the most creative spasms I had at once was four" implies that I thought about four ideas at the same time, when really I mean to say that four ideas kinda took turns distracting me)

This entry is late for your journal
matt1993: (homestar graduate epitaph)
Right now, I'm unsure of whether I should go ahead and go to college in fall 2011 like I'd planned, sit out for a semester, or sit out for a year (though if I sit out, I'll have to get a part-time job instead).

Reasons I should go ahead and go to college:
- I'd have at least 3 years and 11 months to rid my mind of creative tumors before I get a job, whereas if I wait a semester or a year and get a part-time job first, I could end up having to finish them all up today.
- I've already decided a schedule of classes, and what seems like a pretty easy schedule (for me) at that; there are 2 math classes, a computer class, freshman English, and some sort of "intro to college" class (I think it's called Campus Connect or something like that). In fact, this means that freeing my mind of creative tumors before college might not be as important as freeing my mind of them before getting a job.
- My family has already paid money for it (both for college itself and for stuff for my dorm).
- The college I plan to go to has an autism support program, and while I didn't get into it due to the waiting list, the professors are apparently used to autistic students.
- The HAS (High School Aerospace Scholars for those that are new or new-ish here) camp was the closest thing to a job that I've had so far, and I made a fool of myself there way more often than I did in high school (which, of course, is the closest thing I've had to college).

Reasons I should wait a semester or year:
- If I go to college this fall, I'll only have 2 months to get rid of all my creative tumors before college, but if I wait a semester I'll have 6 months and if I wait a year I'll have 14 months.
- Considering that I'll have an English class and that the Campus Connect class or whatever it's called <pun intended="false">has</pun> essays, my schedule might pull a HAS and turn out to have 2 difficult essays every 2 weeks or something even though I was told that the essays will be easy and infrequent.

So...

Poll #1755898 I don't know what to do with my life!

Should I go to college now, or wait a semester or a year?

Go to college now!
Your inner Enya-dressed-as-Mario wants you to be more optimistic!
Don't go to college yet! Get a part-time job for a semester!
Don't go to college yet! Get a part-time job for a year!
Have a poll option that doesn't have every sentence end with an exclamation point!


Stuck between this journal and...well...your journal
matt1993: (aha!)
In about 27 minutes, I have to leave for a college visit. This time, I'm gonna be staying overnight in a dorm with current students, so I'll be back Monday. Let's hope that nobody asks me whether or not I listen to a really popular band...

Also, yesterday I uploaded my 100th userpic! Yay!! Special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] an_bhean_airgid for posting the comment that required me to upload this userpic for my reply!

Also, something I've been wondering: Y'see, whenever I get a LiveJournal comment and am worried about what it might say, for some reason I always scroll straight to the bottom of the comment notification as quick as possible, then scroll back up slowly to the comment. Does anyone else do this? And if so, do you have any idea why it would feel safer to scroll all the way down and then back up even though it'd be the same comment either way?

Also, my left ear starting hurting for no apparent reason last Tuesday (it felt like it was either broken or constantly being pushed on), but today it doesn't seem to hurt anymore. What's weird about that is that it started hurting exactly 659 days after my first 666 dream (the number 659 appeared in a semi-recent dream) and exactly a week before the Day of Frozen Pets. Coincidence? Then again, I never had a dream with 664 in it, so the day it stopped hurting doesn't seem to be significant...

Finally, a quiz:



You Are Math



You are simply brilliant. You are bright, intelligent, and creative.

You've always had a head for numbers, and people are amazed by the math you can mentally do.



You are comfortable with theories. Abstract ideas and concepts delight you.

You think on a whole other plane. You see patterns and logic where others see chaos.




Creative, no. Everything else, spot on.

Post to--OW MY EAR!!--your journal!

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
