Since I haven't had the time to play the first two (shame on me), sure! I wanna see if the series is as great as all my friends have been hailing it!

Actual breakfast.

Yes. My Shounen Jump edition Blue-Eyes White Dragon, along with other Yu-Gi-Oh cards, by my cousins on my dad's side of the family. I got them back... AND MADE THEM SUFFER FOR TAKING THEM.

Stressful and busy, but pretty good!

I didn't think I was... Until I fell down the stairs once. Since then, I have a healthy degree of caution whenever there's a possibility that I could fall or be pushed from a high place.

Dx ...Admittedly more book smart. But some people told me that I'm more street/"resourceful" smart than I'm willing to admit. Hmmm...!

Candy! Roses make me sad, 'cause I'd just subject them to a slow death due to improper care.

Yes... Maybe... But in all honesty, I don't really care for them. UNLESS THEY'RE FROM ANOTHER COU--

Bottom!

ACTOR. OF THE VOICE ACTING VARIETY. FOR BEING GOOD AT WHAT I DO.

Not much. At most, MAYBE 1 hour a day if I'm lucky, like during meals. Usually less.

CRAP--THEY'RE BOTH IMPORTANT. I'M BIASED TOWARDS ART, BUT I NEED SCIENCE TO NOT SUFFER FROM THE PAIN CAUSED BY ART--

I draw, play video games, listen to music, and generally do things that take my mind off of work~ It has to be something "mindless", or my brain will never rest.

Instant food, yes. Actual food, not really... Whoops.

Archery! ...It's the only one I did seriously, for a time.

Hmm... I have my lapses of procrastination and laziness too. After all, I end up burning myself out after charging forward nonstop! What gets me back on my feet is breaking down what I need to do into manageable chunks, because the work will get done eventually this way, just not all at once... Since the thought of which is what discourages me from being productive in the first place. Tell me to get thousands of things done in a day and I'll keep putting it off "until I have time". Tell me to get a few things done at a time and I'll just absentmindedly get them done instead of paralyzing myself with the sheer number of things I need to do. But the trick is to get started at all. You have to try and get that first step done to know that "if you can do this, you can do the next step too".

Which leads to being resourceful. Being resourceful is a matter of making the most of what you have, like a crazy person stranded on an island, Robinson Crusoe-ing it up. You just have to apply that mindset to your current circumstances. For instance, what can or can't you do right now? What do you have at your disposal that you can use? What's keeping you from accomplishing a certain goal? Very simple questions that upon answering/accomplishing can lead to that "you did this step, so do the next one" sort of deal. Manageable chunks, especially when those little chunks are the only ones you CAN do.

Hopes this helps!

Here's something that was explained to us in TV production class: There're tons of YouTube videos out there and we're willing to ignore or forgive the crappy visual quality for home videos and such so long as we can hear things fine and know what's going on. I know some people who only care for the graphics and laugh at me if what I'm playing isn't "ridiculously hi-def" (especially when I don't have an HD TV), but to me, I can deal with PS1 graphics and blocky 3D models so long as it's consistent or contributes to the aesthetic. It's the audio that's more likely to ruin my ability to overlook graphical limitations.

I don't want to be cheesy or corny, but I have to admit: Voice acting is where the immersion can REALLY be destroyed if it's not done right. It's like the uncanny valley, but on a psychological, behavioral level than on a visual level. If it doesn't sound right, it just takes me out. When it's done right, me caring for the characters despite them being fictional beings in a game is immersion. Uber immersion if I forget that there were VA's who recorded the characters of the world I'm in.

I will admit this now though: Lux-Pain had great voice acting, but no amount of wonderful voice acting could save that example of the worst localization + glitchy gameplay (as in, there's a literal game-breaking glitch) I've ever had to put up with. It all has to come together to truly make an immersive experience.

@@; ...A lot.

Not too often. 'Tis expensive. I usually try to go if it's for something animated.

Food. That counts, right? How about Nerds Rope?
