today's thought: newcastle did great on the draw. looking good for once!.


<< reminisce envision >>

When you are hungry, anything you put into your mouth makes you savour it more. It is the hunger, the deprivation of having food that makes even the tiniest morsel seem like a delicacy. The same deal goes for a thristy man in the desert, where the drop of water is worth a fortune to that man.

It may seem extreme, but this is just what I feel nowadays.

I failed my IPPT on Thursday, but given the amount of discipline and willpower that is required in moving this lardy body of mine, I decided that passing involved too much sacrifice on my part. True, RT may seem even less appealing, but when I found out that clearing RT means that you also pass the new window's IPPT as well, I just decided that it was too good to be true. So, yep, I lost alot of my determination to try and pass it, and just decided to go for the RT

Even better would be the fact that I have ICT just before my RT is scheduled to begin. If I passed my IPPT during the ICT, I kill a flock of birds with one stone.

Why not?

MTGO is down for at least a week while the changeover to MTGO v3 is ongoing. It is disruptive, but it is for the longterm. A new version to finally solve the old issues plaguing the incumbent would help boost the number of players, which means more business and better prices for cards. So it is an exciting time to be at, and it is my hope that the new system will improve the trading system. And it will mean that it is finally time to find a good bot maker to assist me in writing a bot that can help reduce the amount of time spent trading.

So that leaves me with quite abit of spare time to rest and recover some of my spent nerves. With the stupid IPPT out of the picture (for now), and with almost nothing I can do on eBay, I find that I have had more time to rest. Well, good in a way too; there is still so much to be done, and the break now till help me last until June where the next big break comes (Bangkok, here we go!)

Basically that is all. I wanna say that my previous entry made reference to The Bucket List. Instead of your regular sloppy love stories or adrenaline-charged thrillers, go for something different, something more closer to home. Something about life, in itself. That's why the most impressionable movies to me are such.
