The past few days have been a blur of 3D printing and my newest tap tap phone game addiction: Ensemble Stars. I've been playing LoveLive since uhhhhh 2015? 2016???? but it's been a fucking shit show. SIF2 is not even close to the original, and it's shutting down in a couple months. Worldwide is apparently launching next month, but it'll only be open for a few months before it also shuts down.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

lays on the ground sadly

But look I hate change and I really like 1) the songs and 2) the play style of LL, so no other rhythm phone games have stuck for me. UNTIL NOW, APPARENTLY!!!! I even tried enstars a few years back and didn't really care for it, but I guess I just needed to try for a bit longer? I've barely been able to put it down since I started a few days ago XD

ANYWAY. The other important part of this post is 3D printing, namely the inevitability of me printing a bunch of tristamp Knives's blades.......not a million of them but as many as possible XD I bought a 3D model on etsy and it's been.....challenging to get it to work right, to say the least :T


Knives is disappointed in the many failures >:O
Something about the model isn't working right; it's basically too HD???? Pat's brother has been trying to help us sort it out, because where the blades come to their "sharpest" point, it's too narrow for our printer to actually render/print/something???? I dunno. I'm not good at 3D shapes in general and considering we just got this printer a few days ago, it's been a lot of messing around to try to get things to work.

Micro Center did have small packs of fun filament - because of COURSE we went back to get more already - and I also got a big thing of shiny silver to make the blades...once they work right :TTTTT I had to take a break from it for a bit.

Also, classes start tomorrow!!!! It's my last semester at community college :D I'll be graduating with my associates in creative writing after this, and hopefully transferring to complete my bachelors :D I have to work on filling out some transfer applications, but I started them just as I got sick and couldn't really work on them for the past couple weeks.

I'm both nervous and excited, tbh. I kinda thought I'd never finish any sort of college and now here I am, just one semester away from success!!!!!! And my top choice school to transfer to is definitely a reach, but I'm still gonna give it my all~~~~
