Made mah day.

Lol yea that would be interesting. But if you're really coming to Finland someday I think I'd be up for something like that.

Time to mention that I found a travel buddy and a place to stay in Finland. Aiming for January...but I gotta book soon!

I don't have time until next, next week to stalk ebay listings. If you'd like to watch some for me in the meantime, and pm me the second there's a really good deal, I could probably do it.

Yeah I know 5000 card lots seem thrilling, but remember that not only are cards heavy, but also keep in mind how much you're spending I'm not made of money and I think that there's so much I can spend on fun. Also, I have to buy the plane ticket.

Ok! I'll try and see if I find any good looking deals. I'm not too sure how much I can spend either lol, that $80-90 for 1000 cards you mentioned earlier sounded pretty good to me since the cards I've bought in Finnish market have been a bit pricier than that.

Wahhh that's nice. Better than anything I made all year D:

Related: In Hong Kong, I was really thinking about buying a piece of leather for crafting. It's the side of a cow, but it's huge and I would have to cut it up to bring it back. I don't know if anyone is interested in using leather for a costume accessory, but it would be nice to split that cost (I wanted it for a Link costume). A whole piece is about $110 USD which is much cheaper than any leather you can get here for some reason. It has more than enough to make several costumes.

If you can, buy the sets that are no longer in print. For obvious reasons. I have tons of cards from before 2000...your best bet is to win an auction from someone putting up their old collections online because you don't have to deal with the bullshit of 1 rare per 50 or 100 cards (remember you get 1 rare per 10 cards in a normal booster). That's what the big sellers do to make a profit from cards. If you win the auction, send me proof then we'll negotiate from there xD

So this is a mix of both "Made mah day" and "rant/my life sucks".
I performed the first movement of the Pathetique sonata on Sunday. I went to a shop labeled "Classic Pianos".
And they had a f***ing Bosendorfer Imperial.
Y'know, the 9 1/2 feet long one, with 97 keys as opposed to 88? Yeah, that one.
That said, I didn't play well at all.
But then, I was approached after the concert and offered a masterclass with a local pianist, Michael Allen Harrison.
Not sure how much it'll help, but it sounds awesome.

Woah he has a Wikipedia page. That must mean that he's famous

[Pianist Da Sootopolis]

XD I just felt like including it. He's not super well known but he's a great player.

So, I just got my ACT results today. I'm really mad that I didn't get a perfect score. I guess I'll just have to live with a 35...

Had one of the best days in a long time. Studied super hard in school, finished up some big assignments, got good grades for said assignments and I didn't get stressed for once! Just got time to sit down and relax with some Mega Man Legends, so overall I'm happy that I'm not worried or stressed about anything for once. (I usually have stress or worries mainly regarding my friends from school and if they are safe and whatnot but today they are having nice days as well and next week one will even be coming over to play PSMD with me!) Tomorrow I'm going to a retro game store to check things out, so hopefully i'll find a good deal as well!

EDIT: Well thanks a lot Television news stations for ruining my mood... Why did the best day in a while for me had to be ruined because of horrible actions around the world? Gah... Still leaving the above up, as I HAD a good day until recently when I learned.
