On Saturday I completed a uni assignment from beginning to end (I hadn't even started until Saturday) and then later that night I had 4 double beef and cheese burgers. I then I stayed up in front of my computer until about 4:30am until I then went to bed. My cat woke me up at about 5:30, so I preceeded to take him outside. I then woke up at about 7:00 because my next door neiboughres (how do you spell that word again?) were screaming and yelling for some reason. Then I woke up at about 8:15 knowing that I would not be able to fall asleep again, I started getting ready for the tournament. I had a quick breakfast and then it was time for the 50 minute train ride.
We got at the tournament, and about 1 hour into the tournament I get a phone call from my brother. He continues to tell me that ALL the accounts in a game that me and him play have been banned. Banned as in, everything on those accounts is lost forever and has a 0% chance of returning. Oh great, isnt that just....great. "Oh well" I think to myself, i'm at a smash tourney right now, we'll deal with our game accounts when I get back.
By this time I was still fairly active in my mind.... until about 1-1:30.
BOOOOM CRASH! went my mind. I became super tired just as I suspected I would. The fatigue was extreme but theres nothing you can do about it. Then we had some double matches but because of only 9 participants, there would either have to be 4 teams or 5 teams with 1 'team' as a single person. We went with the 5 team option, it was me vs 2 others. SOOOO in my supremely tired state, I did the best I could. I didn't appear on top, but then I didn't expect to and I dont think anyone else did
We finish up the singles tournament and then we go and get ourselves some pizza. By this time im so tired that I just want to fall down and die. But theres pizza! So I eat a full pizza to myself, a complete 8 pieces deposited in my stomach. My tongue would argue that it was a good idea, my stomach was considering suicide. But, I've had far worse stomach pain in the past so it really wasnt anything new or something that I couldnt deal with.
So its nearing 5:30 (my brother is otw to pick me up since he just finished buying a new T.V nearby) and me and Matt (n1v) start playing melee. Yay, melee. One of the most mind intensive games and here I am, half dead playing melee somewhat competitevly. Sure they were just friendlies, but we were trying to win! So we play a couple rounds and then my brother shows up to pick me up. We say our goodbyes to everyone and then its time for the long 1 hour+ trip home. The problem is....my brother doesnt know the way back! So here I am thinking that I can finally just semi-sleep in the car, instead I have to take out the road map and direct him through a maze of pathways. Thankfully we managed to get on the freeway before too long.
Unfortunatly, I'm not someone that can sleep in many situations. I find it very difficult to sleep anywhere that isnt in my sweet bed. Thats the goal right now. Bed. The quicker I can get into my bed, the quicker I succeed. Anyway, we get home at something like 7:10. I enter our house and just sit on the couch while Richard is watching The Biggest Loser. I watch that until it ends and then Robert puts a movie in the DvD player. I know I SHOULD be going to be right now, but I just cant be bothered getting off the couch, going to my room, getting changed and then try to sleep. So instead, I watch the movie.
Throughout watching it I learn theres a subway bun thing that was there for me (since nobody knew I'd be having pizza). Again, my tongue and taste buds wanted it, and they got what they wanted. I coupled that with some orange juice that is somewhat old and only really drank it because there wasnt much left of it and I thought i'd finish it off. I then topped that off with a full glass of COLD water. So after 2 hours or however long the move went its now about 10:00 pm. Couple all these times with the fact that my body clock is actually 1 hour in front since daylight savings JUST SO HAPPENED to end on that day and you have a recipe for disaster. Its about this time that I go finally go to bed and get some sleep. For whatever reason, I dont sleep very well. I woke up through the night on numerous occasions. But I got through it.
Now it comes to this morning which I woke up at something like 8:00am. I would have prefered a long sleep in but thats out of my control. So I jump onto my computer since there really isnt much else for me to do (no Uni today) and I get started on trying to figure out what i'm going to do about the banned accounts. Midway through doing so.
GGRERGRGRGAHHAHHAHHHAHIIIIOOUOUOEEEEEEIIIAAAAAAAAAA!!! My stomach begins its eruption of pain. Oh it hurts. It definetly hurts. So I rush to the toilet and im there for the next 15 minutes. I come back here afterwards and begin writing this massive post.
Now onto the future! Now that PAL texture hacks can be done, Richard wants me to get them on our Wii. Sure, I pretty much know exactly how to do it and im sure for most of you its not that hard. But its a little bit more annoying for me and I will explain why. You see our SD card that we use in our Wii isnt actually an SD card, instead its a card the same size as an SD card that adapts a Micro SD into it. In other words, its a Micro SD Adaptor. Now for us to put information on or off our Micro SD we need to put that into our computers which DONT have a SD card slot. So we need a USB adaptor for our Micro SD. We have 2 of these, the problem is that not long ago, both of them just stopped working for no explainable reason whatsoever.
The Laptop that we have however (that my sister uses) DOES have an SD card slot. But again another problem, its such a flawed system design that you cant have the wireless network card plugged in and take OUT the SD card at the same time. The network card blocks access to the SD card so you cant take it out once your done with it unless you take out the network card. Instead I devised a way of taking the SD card out with a pair of nailclippers. Yet another problem is that the Laptop has a password on it (that I dont know) and my sister is at school!
So putting new codes on or off the SD card once I have the laptop password entails these steps:
1. Take out SD card from wii.
2. Put SD card in Laptop.
3. Get the codes from my computer and put that on a USB.
4. Connect the USB to the laptop.
5. Take the files from the USB and put them on the SD card.
6. Use the nailclippers to take out the SD card.
7. Re-insert the Micro SD into the SD
8. Re-insert the SD card into my wii and hope for success!
Ughh its a lot harder and longer than it should be. The next problem is that I have another assignment that is due tomorrow that I dont know how to do, and I havent started

Thanks for hosting again Bob. Sure my day was made more complicated than it could have been but it was my decision to come so I must accept the good and the bad that come with it. See you all around!
