Happy New Year 2016

I know we still have a day or two but wanted to make this topic to wish everyone a happy new year, since I see myself as the bringer of joy right now. /jokes

For me, 2015 was a marking experience. I've had the opportunity to truly live by myself for some time and be able to take my own decisions. Was it good? Was it bad? I can't answer. But it was important. During this experience, I could take a crystal clear look at my own weaknesses- and it was hard to acknowledge them, but it's all a matter of time and acceptance.

Had also a rough time trying to adapt into that situation; It was a entirely brand new city, an entirely brand new school with quite different social standards and really high criminality. The stress and the pressure were all over the place, and heaven knows if I could survive that longer. And of course I couldn't escape from that; I was robbed. But despite it all, it's still real life. It has problems, and you have to surpass them, right?

In short, this year was me, experimenting another situation, and it showed that I couldn't settle with my old manners or mistakes. It's time to change. And I see 2016 as the perfect opportunity for that, where I'm moving to yet another city, with hopefully a better status of living.

I hope this year had the same impact in any of you. Despite it being difficult, there's never other option. We all should have the constant desire to change for better. And with that all said, I wish everyone and myself a really good 2016.

I feel like 2015 was just hell for me, but it got a little better near the end.
Well, Happy New Year's Eve Eve.

Truthfully? I feel like I lost this year of my life, the whole thing feels about 2 or 3 months. And what's worse is that could easily happen to the next year. I've been so swallowed up and consumed by my, let's call it, 'illness', that I just feel like that's all I've done this year- look in the mirror, feel fat, starve myself, lose weight. It's not an ideal way to live. :|

But I guess a healthy new years resolution for myself this year is to accept more support. And besides some great things have happened this year even if they felt clouded over, I went to a music concert, I performed in a play, I found a purpose in life etc.

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.

2016 agenda:
- Finish Aethereal Garden
- Leave runouw.com forever

For real though I think the biggest change the new year is going to bring is writing dates because it's going to take me like 2 months to adjust to it being 2016. Other than that, just like all other holidays, New Year's seems pretty superficial to me, and sometimes even more arbitrary than other holidays (see previous sentence), but that's no reason not to just celebrate it for the hell of it. I'd probably rate 2015 around a 6/10. there's room for improvement. Besides, I have stuff I'm looking forward to later this coming year anyway, so that's a plus.

also omfg I need to be more consistent about how I spell New Years'

I really need to start becoming more independent (and also get off my lazy rear and finish some stuff that I never got done in the past).
Expect something cool here soon!

Here's to a stellar 2016! May it be even more awesome than 2015 was, LDing-wise!

Thank you, FF.

Nan's sig! From the previous Secret Santa event!: show
Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.
