Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations
Hope you all are doing well and continuing to prosper. As I so predicted a few updates ago, school has been keeping me plenty busy, so I honestly have not had a whole lot of time for content. Still, I want to keep you all informed and say just a few things.
Happy Holidays
Halloween, along, with Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming around once again and I just wanted to go ahead and wish you all happy holidays, whatever it is your celebrating. However, since Halloween is the closest, I will go ahead and wish everyone a happy Halloween as well.
300 Followers on Animated Observations!
After a vigorous, week-long campaign of begging people on Twitter to follow me, I recently hit a personal goal of 300 followers on WordPress for Animated Observations! I know compared to many other bloggers that is not a whole lot, but considering I’m now a solid three months into my third year of blogging, it feels like a good place to be at. I also promised during that campaign that I would make a video shouting out all of my followers, which I will definitely do, it just might take a little longer than anticipated. Hopefully thought it should be out in no longer than a week.
I may also end up doing some kind of give-away as well, but I honestly have not gotten that far yet.
Smash Ultimate and Needing a Break
You may or may not know about my love of competitive smash, which I talked about in a previous update, but if you do not, I love competitive smash. Ultimate specifically has been a lot of fun and has brought a lot of joy. However, its also made me feel a lot worse about myself. Every time I go to locals I pretty much go 0-2 without fail, and despite knowing that I usually do not have time to practice, I still try and compare myself with people who literally dedicate pretty much all of their free time to getting better.
Because of this, I have decided to take a step back from the game and re-evaluate my relationship with it. I need to find out whether or not it is a game I play for fun or one that I want to take seriously. Otherwise, I am just going to keep feeling frustrated with myself.
Aside from all of that, I have not had much else going on, so that about does it for me.
