Yesterday and the night before that I was going through some weird temporary depression. I just felt really sad. It all started the night before where I had broken the bottom connector bits to my ghost ship. To be honest they arn’t important at all and actually the model benefits from them breaking and then using glue to make the model fit together better. Then each time my gf would make a critical negative comment about my efforts before they are finished. Geez, when the damn thing is finished it is finished then you can critiqued it all you want. But work in progress will always look unattractive. Also, that very night she just kept wanting me to hold up her picture for her exhibition (which turns out got cancelled anyway). For some reason it just kept annoying me more and more. I think my legs were tired as well but I was feeling frustrated and this continued on into the next day.
I think what happened was that I was so focused on painting these models that I was also getting frustrated by feeling trapped in doing it. I mean, I was spending all early November getting the damn things ready and I have only done 2 ships. There are still 8 more big ships to do, at least 9 mini ships and a shit load of scenery. I think I burnt myself out so I was totally frustrated and just feeling sad yesterday.
So today I bought Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword on ebay for $50. It’ll be imported from the UK on the 18th and probably arrive on the 22nd. So that will be awesome when it is cheap.
I think what’s also happening with my frustration is that because I’ve been doing a lot of excercize lately (Gym tuesday, wednesday, friday and sunday and swimming monday, wednesday, and friday) that any periods of sitting down just kinda pisses my body off because it is more worked up to do excercize. When you’re in a period of laziness, the body also feels lazy and inactive. And sitting down for long periods is not frustrating.
Though I won’t be getting the zelda game for a bit (at least 8 days) so I need to fill it with something else that is less frustrating. That is when I remembered Dragon Age 2 that still hasn’t been played. So I’ll probs do that for a bit. But so many awesome games have been released now so it’s exciting times. Skyrim looks awesome as does Rayman: Origins.
Seems like too many games nowadays. And in less then a month I’ll be admitted as a solicitor of NSW. That’s cool. Hopefully my hair will look a bit more presentable by the time I get to that time.
