I'm currently editing a short film that I did cinematography for a year ago although haven't had time to edit it until now because I was working on a documentary, I'm struggling to keep focused though because the organisation at the time was a huge mess in terms of labelling the audio so right now I'm just slogging through hours of footage to sync up the dialogue audio with the footage :X

Other than that I've just been working on music stuff which is fun and getting back into drawing. Also been getting more into cooking again, made a nice paneer curry yesterday which was tasty

I have my own gym at home (one bedroom apartment in the city) the room has a bench press squat rack and a heavy bag. I use the living room to sleep. So I've been working on my kickboxing. Putting muscle on and beating video games.

Been watching the old UFC shows and pride shows in order.

Nice! Whats your writing about? Writing has never been my strong suit which is why I got more into film since I'm more of a visual person but its still something I love and appreciate when other folk can do it. Also what kind of game?

What sort of books would you recommend to someone who hasn't read in a long ass time?

Having an indoor gym must be really useful, I havent dragged myself to the gym in ages coz im an anxious self-conscious baby, although I have been forcing myself to do squats at home coz ive been lounging about too much

Starting Wednesday I'm going to volunteer at the DLIR to help with their unemployment claims. My boss asked me if I wanted to do it, and said I wouldn't be getting paid extra and the work was "extremely boring".

...But I mean come on, when your boss asks if you "want" to do extra work... :<

Working there must be a nightmare at the moment, do you talk to claimants over the phone and things? I cant imagine how stressful that'd be right now

I have no idea what I'm going to be doing or even what room I'm supposed to go to. In fact I was surprised that I was even qualified to do any work there. They're operating out of the Hawaii Convention Center right now, which is a pretty big place, so my boss better text me the details pretty soon <_<

i've been sporadically working on a Victorian manor-inspired housemod for forever now, and i think it is close enough to being done that i will be able to submit it at least as a beta in time for the end of the Morrowind May Modathon this year. in the midst of working on that, last week i started a modders' resource that adds a selection of Spanish Romantic-era painter Francisco Goya's works, mostly consisting of his Tapestry Cartoons series, into Morrowind as tapestries. it is basically done except for some finishing touches, and should be ready to upload by May 1st. it will be my first completed mod.
That's amazing! Would love to see it once its all done. Did you have to do your own 3D modelling and things for it?

I quit my job on March 2nd to relax and travel...needless to say I have not done much of either.

But with the free time I have started trying to learn to speak Spanish. I took it in high school and I still know some stuff. I'm using Duolingo to learn and I also downloaded the Spanish language version of the 1st Harry Potter book.

I'm Mexican and my Dad and Grandma speak it so I can practice with them when I get to a higher level. End goal is I would like to do a trip to Mexico and be able to converse with people decently (eventually lol)

I dunno what kind of stuff youre into so its hard to recommend stuff. Just off the top of my head good stuff that Ive read recently

Catch and Kill by Ronan Farrow and Chaos by Tom ONeill. Two good nonfiction books about the Harvey Weinstein case and the mishandling of the investigation into the Manson Family respectively

The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher. A spooky horror novel set in rural North Carolina.

The Stranger Diaries by Elly Griffiths. A murder mystery set in modern England. A little trashy but in a fun readable sort of way

Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett, a really funny parody of Macbeth set in the Discworld universe

thanks! no, it was actually pretty simple to do once i got the process down. the only mesh used in it is the common tapestry mesh from the base game, so no modeling work needed for that, and so the process consisted mostly of just taking the photos of the paintings/tapestries and editing them in paint.net and GIMP to look like Morrowind tapestries by desaturating and darkening them and putting this "thready" looking overlay on it that another member of the Morrowind modding community graciously provided me with.

here are some pics of the display hall i have set up as part of the mod that a couple of people who beta tested for me posted to the Morrowind discord server when they were critiquing stuff:

I might start posting some youtube videos. Short ones talking about movies most likely. Right now I am doing a proof of concept one to see how hard it will be to combine title cards, audio, and video.

Language study, doing these Harvard Business School classes (they're about 2-3 hours long each) for professional development, transcribing records for NARA because I'm on the computer all day anyway and it's an easy way to volunteer. Trying to set up a volunteer language tutoring group for a local college, will see what the verdict on that is.

I'm still working and busier than normal so that takes up as much of my day as ever, minus the commute which is admittedly pretty meaningful.

I also have some gym equipment from home and have been working out pretty hard. I've got a bench, half rack, exercise bike, and several bands, dumbbells, plates etc.

Playing more board games with the gf than usual. Playing more vidya with the boys than normal. Started doing some spring cleaning of our closets.

Nothing too creative or exciting

Here is the one I made. I'll take some constructive criticism. Is 4 minutes too long? Does it need a rating at the end?

think im having an existential crisis. this pandemic lockdown just bums me out. even now im using this time to distract myself from seeking the answers i want to know because i dont know if i will like what i find out. so ive been on this. think i will be fine but this time i might go further with trying to take the emotion out and objectively reflecting on myself. like this time setting some specified achievable measurable realistic goals.
