ZetaFlare:
These past two weeks have been busy, toasty (leftover high pressure from monsoons in Baja California are making it pretty muggy up here), and unlucky. Busy with four job interviews, unlucky because three of them were failures. And I've been struggling to find a new job that fits my abilities perfectly. Been the same old story ever since I got laid off from my last position back in May 2013. My interview skills have gotten much better, but even with the help of the Department of Rehab, my luck just falls short...always losing to people with more experience.
A week from now I'm heading to PMX...too bad it happens to be on the same weekend as Saboten-con, which I've really been wanting to go to for a while now. Still, I've managed to book my first official con performance since I started posting my keyboard covers! I've put together a lineup celebrating the 10th anniversary of iDOLM@STER and the 5th anniversary of Love Live. Been practicing quite a bit recently, but now that the rest of next week is free I'm clear to practice more diligently. I'll have the performance recorded and posted into my "keyboard cover me" thread once I get the chance. Wish me luck!
Aside from that, after I work on a fanfiction, I'm thinking of designing a sprite battle PowerPoint animation designed like a Shining Force/Fire Emblem-style strategy RPG (I always tend to give my animations a video game/visual novel sort of feel). The first eight levels are selected Megaman style. Now I just have to come up with a good party and playable mechanics.
Tafira:
Sorry to hear about your job troubles Zeta, hope you find a good position soon.
As long as you don't give up, surely you'll find it.
But it sounds like you have some good things to look forward to with your formal performances ^^
Ganbarimasu!
As for myself, I have just finished my first week of college and though a lot things, like the learning environment and campus, are different from high school, I think the transition is going well.
(Well I was late for one class by 10 minutes but that's just one thing)
I signed up for a Japanese class, so... we'll see how that goes. 8)

Well, from memory, someone made basically what amounts to an SRPG maker, in 2D FE style, complete with a FE mechanics set preassembled.
It's fairly well featured, and has most of what you'd be looking for (Since there's an engine behind this) but the catch is that it's currently only in Japanese, so you'd need a way around that. (Hey, I'm vaguely useful even without all my equipment at the moment.)
As for me? I'm still too busy coughing up crap (apparently surviving a fire with asbestos has consequences) and more worrying, my roommate's gone down harder than I have.
So I'm here with mostly nothing to do, because he's the one who covers the rent (and I handle all the other stuff, and all the admin/paperwork) and without his approval, I can't resettle, and without any of my stuff working (Setting up where I am is not a good idea) I can't really do much else.
It makes me borderline useless right now, and it's really, really depressing.
MetalPredat0r:
Hope you guys can get through your troubles soon enough.
As for me personally, I'm finally going to get my YouTube channel on track. I made a Channel Introduction/Test Video on my YouTube channel, MetalPredat0r.

This will be where the iM@S 9/18 Discussion will be posted.

I swear this day has the crummiest pattern of weather ever.
