Progress is laced with failure.

So I've been working on getting that number up in Mushihimesama. Another goal I forgot to mention is that I'd really like to reach 100,000,000 points (or higher, of course （゜ー゜）☆）before Mushihimesama Futari comes and I start collecting achievements in that. I've managed to do a lot better in stages 1 and 2 (as well as killing the first boss in nothing flat thanks to a trick a friend showed me), but stage 3 is where you can really make that number go up. I can usually do alright for a few moments, but then my counter crashes, making the run pretty much useless. I was told to watch this video--

...over and over again until I get it right. Unfortunately, I end up losing everything at around 1:14. Something just isn't clicking with me there. Sooner or later I'll catch on. I hope. I mean, I can understand what he's doing, but I can't emulate it. It's irritating, honestly. Either way, I keep trying. What else can I do?

In other news, Hokuto no Ken/Fist of the North Star is awesome and I should have started watching it a long time ago. I must say it does clash a bit with the other shows I'm currently watching, like Kobato and Kimi ni Todoke, but I think I'll call that 'balance'. (￣ー￣)

...huh. I expected to make this entry longer. Oh well. More later, I suppose!


EDIT: Oh, it's finally October 22 now! That means the Windows 7 upgrade I pre-ordered in...what, May? will ship out~ I'm really excited about it!


Bleh. Still shorter than expected. Hahaha.
