i think putting 666 in your tag is dumb, even as a joke. LDO it's a sign of the anti-christ, and whether you believe in it or not thoughts have power, and the collective energy that has gone into 666 over its history is far and away negative. i think it's ignorance at its finest to believe that would not or could not affect you. there is infinitesimal reward and significant risk.
it's different for every person; i can only give you my experiences and observations/research
the first and most important step, from which all progress stems from, is self-awareness
which leads into meditation: observing yourself without judgment
there are all kinds of specific meditations. in general they target one of two aspects: concentration, or one-pointedness, and loving kindness, or peace. (if you want to know how to meditate, read this. that post suggests 20 minutes, but i think that's quite a bit of time for a beginner; five or ten minutes is sufficient.)
as far as those bad habits are concerned...
it's more important on what you don't do than what you do. so to that end, cut out the bad habits.
almost everyone in this society (the next person who proves me wrong on this will be the first) has a behavioral addiction to something and to some degree. it may be sweets, fatty foods, or salty foods; it may be the internet, texting, or porn; it may be gambling or video games or TV.
in low doses none of these are bad in and of themselves but they are hyperstimulating, and our evolutionary mechanisms are ill-equipped to handle them. all of these behavioral addictions affect the brain just as drugs do.
addictions are nasty to treat because it's a chronic disease. i'm like an expert on this topic because i'm one of the 10-15% of the population that has a predisposition to addiction (aka an addictive personality) and an unceasing hunger to becoming enlightened.
this site is an amazing repository for all the latest info on how stimulation affects your brain
in any case try not to feel bad about any shortcomings. not just because of the cliche (but true) "we all have them, some of us are better off than others" aspect, but because feelings persist when we resist. that is why meditation and self-awareness is the most important, because self-improvement means coming to grips with negative feelings. (you may wonder about positive feelings, but no one resists positive feelings, which is why they never seem to last as long as negative ones.) when you observe them without judgment they disappear. the more you resist them (by distracting yourself, denying that you feel the way you do, or trying to replace them with a positive feeling) the more they stick around.
that's difficult to answer

chris just wanted to update, we're still gonna leave saturday morning (i think leaving from my place around 8 should be ok), but i still dont know if crimson is coming <_< . i should know by friday afternoon, and if he joins he doesnt mind sleeping on the floor. either way, splitting the hotel among 4 or 5 is not too bad. sungs car i believe is still leaving friday evening

Nah I'm just going tomorrow morning and I don't think I'm stopping by your place either on saturday
I'll try and be at your place by about 7:30ish. I'd like to be on the road by 8 for sure since we need to check in by 10:30 for doubles pools (starts at 11) and I have to figure out what to do with the car short term since the hotel check-in isn't until 3pm.

^^^^ why? I think its obvious here who johnny was talking about but u insist on insulting me? I don't get it
I was joking, first of all, but I'm not sure how Johnny created Baka. On the other hand he has trained/played with you a lot.
Anyway, wasn't trying to insult you, but it doesn't seem like anyone gets upset when people insult Baka.
P.S. Good job beating Zhu.

@Boris iirc it was lucky, s2j, westballz, zhu, lovage/wobbles, eddie mexico/bizzaro flame for singles
doubles was s2j/lovage, fly/zhu, eddie/me, little fumi/zen, and sung/wes & azn_lep/wobbles

I'm guessing I'm late for the inside joke about baka...
Lucky's finally back. Looking at his match against fly, his fox looks kind of like a falco, and he doesn't like using shield pressure or grabbing much. Then again, ice climbers are kind of weird, so I may be wrong. It's looking like all the WGF videos will be out before the APEX ones.
I'm amazed that Lucky hasn't fallen in skill, but I expected S2J to do well. I'm a little sorry for Zhu and lovage, and I never really noticed westballz as much. How many entrants were there?

no, theres no inside joke. ppl just think its funny to insult me and its getting tiring.
i think singles had 155, and double about 70 teams. granted, it was a free tournament, so a lot of randoms showed up. yea im amazed about lucky too, and i thought wobbles would do better tbh

I don't know why, but doubles just seems like a mass chaos-fest to me until a team only has one stock left.. then I expect funny team combos.

I can do saturday^_^ I think I got a little better, and I worked on tech skill. Playing you guys really opened my mind to some stuff. I'll try to get to that tourney, but I'm not sure how it works. Do I pay 10 dollars at the signup? Do I stay there the entire day?
Typically you pay when you get there, $5 venue fee is standard and then $5 for singles and $5 for doubles (you can enter one or both). Depending on the size of the tourney you can expect it to last from about 1pm-7 or 8pm. You can leave whenever you want or once you are out of the tourney, but typically people hang around and play friendlies.
