I thought I'd get my english results back today, but since one of us hasn't done it yet because he was sick, we have to wait until his is done, submitted and marked. So that might be another week or two. That means the chance of me discontinuing this blog is also delayed by that much. My friends keep talking about endgame, and I have to keep my earphones in so I don't get spoiled on the story. However, because of the transition silence between songs exists, I got spoiled a little bit. I don't think it's anything too major, but still it would've been nice to not hear them. School's not any different from before, at least not that I can see. The work is manageable but no too easy or hard, the people are there, there's some construction work going around fixing the ceilings and stuff.

Went to the doctors to finish up my stitches. Now I have to wait 10 days until I take them off for good. This was the first time I was getting stitches while awake, and I have to say it was quite painful, even though I was slightly tranquilized. School starts tomorrow, and I'll have to wear the school hat to school, because of my stitches. I don't think I would need a uniform pass, since it is a school hat. If a teacher questions the hat, I guess I'll just show them the stitches. Tried using the TV as a second monitor, but the TV is super old and has bad resolution, so it made my eyes actually hurt when I looked at it, so I just decided to save up and buy another one.

I go back to school next week tuesday, and it is annoying me that the holidays were short. Even worse, it was cut shorter because I had surgery and ended up sleeping for most of two days. I don't hate school, I just really don't like waking up early in the morning. Since my keyboard doesn't have media keys, I installed this thing called auto hotkey, which lets me add hotkeys. I set win + F5 to pause music and win + F6 to skip, so whenever I'm in game I can do so without tabbing out. Doesn't even matter anyway though, since its faster to tab out, and because some games block outside key binds anyway. This time, when getting the dressing for my stitches, we didn't use tranquilizer, and it didn't feel any different.

Not taking the pain killers for a bit to see if I need it or not. It did hurt a little when I went for a walk, but it was bearable so I don't think I need to take the pain killers.  Cancelled tkd for 1 month while I recover from surgery. I hope the recovery doesn't take too long, because it's really annoying to do everyday stuff with the stitches. The dressing that I have to get almost everyday is not something that can be done at home, so I'll have to go to the GP everyday. They'll also have to partially tranquilize me as well, because apparently it'll hurt.

Was thinking of buying a second monitor, since I have around $130 saved up. Could get decent a decent monitor for that much, but ended up deciding to save up for a decent $300 monitor, so we could re use it for something else if necessary. Was planning to go to watch endgame tomorrow, but dad said that it's preferable not to, so just decided not to go. I can watch the movie sometime later on, so whatever. A friend of mine is trying to get into playing league of legends, and it's not going to be easy. League isn't really a game you pick up and play, it's more of a game where you struggle with for around a year, and actually work towards getting good at it to actually start playing the game properly.

Went to the hospital, and they sedated me again. It seemed a little overkill, but it happened. The put the needle in my hand again, and sedated me to do stuff. Looks like this time they won't fully close the wound to let the fluids inside drain, then let the skin heal itself. Will have to go to the General Practitioner to get my wound cleaned up either everyday or every second day, unless my mum does it at home. The stitches this time actually hurts, differently from before. Also this time they gave me antibiotics with the painkillers. Fist time I've actually taken painkillers, but I have no way to tell if it actually works or if its just placebo. Depending on the doctor's visit tomorrow, I can or can't go to watch endgame and go to BBQ with my friends on Thursday.

My stitches came off on Saturday, and now its gotten more annoying to sleep and do stuff. Going to the hospital tomorrow to see what has to happen to fix/heal the wound. Right now we've used something similar to medical tape to keep it together, but we don't really no what to do until we go to the hospital. I tried to look for a plugin for minecraft, to add a feature to when we play UHC. There was one which was perfect, but was outdated by 8 years, and everything else was just not what I wanted. Next thing I tried was to download the plugin, copy the source code using JD-GUI, then paste it into eclipse to edit the code by myself. But since I have no experience with java, I just outright guessed and tried to change it into what I want. Didn't work, so I just gave up at that point. I haven't done actual exercise in a long time, so it'll probably hard to get back into exercising after I am allowed to. Especially at tkd, they'll probably make me do extra for m...

There's a game in development called Hytale, being developed by Hypixel studios. The game is like terraria mixed with minecraft with mmorpg elements mixed into it. Not a lot of gameplay and story was released, but even from that little bit, it looks very good. Further more, its going to be free to play without micro transactions and allow easy multiplayer with just friends. Another fact is that it's backed by riot games, who made League of Legends. Creating a private multiplayer server for minecraft isn't easy. You have to port forward, which is already hard, but even after you do, sometimes its buggy and doesn't work. Also since the server has to run on someone's computer, the server isn't that great either. That's why hytale having a friends list, server browser and being able to set up our own server is amazing. I've been playing more mechanically hard champions in league, but I'm playing well with them. I think my typing speed has gotten fas...

I found one of my super super old videos on YouTube. It was uploaded on 2014, and compared to other people's videos at 2014, my voice isn't as bad. Still, it's super old and very cringe worthy. I made it unlisted now just in case. Went to the doctor to see if the stitches in my head should be removed, and the doctor said to give it another week, so I can't do exercise again for those days. Apparently wearing a beanie was overkill, so just a hat should be fine when going to school, given that I haven't already removed the stitches by then.

A couple of my friends did a 24-hour challenge, where they stayed up to play games for 24 hours, with timed breaks. All of them went up to 24 hours, but some even went to 30 hours. I don't think I would be bothered to even try that, but I also won't be able to do that because my parents would force me to bed anyway. I expected them to be almost dead near the end, but they actually didn't sound too tired. Avengers Endgame is coming out soon, and I still haven't watched Civil war and Winter Soldier, so I have to somehow catch up on it. A friend of mine has copies that I can borrow, so I'll have to meet up with him before the movie. Apparently the NotreDame church thing or whatever burnt down, and a lot of people are talking about it. I have no idea what it is, but its some church with history attached to it and something. Apparently even after the fire the building is fine and most the things inside were evacuated in time.

Literally all I've done today is just wake up, eat and then play games all day. I've been playing a lot of minecraft again with my friends, with the realms server. We've made a lot of progress in the game, with good gear and weapons, but we're more set on building and creating stuff more than end the game. We've got buildings that we've built, shops that we've set up and came up with a currency system. I don't think I should exercise before or even after removing the stitches, so probably no tkd or training on weekends until next week. I did ask my friends to see if we could go to the park near me, since it was closer and has actual equipment, but some of us are super far away, so its a no go.

Start of the 2 week long holidays. Didn't do much in school today, seeing how it was the last day. In English, we made something called a blackout poem, where basically we took a page and selected some words and tried to make a poem out of it. We got some old books that we can scribble on and did that. In Japanese we did a card memory game thing, where you match the English and Japanese words together. There are tricks to remember certain cards, like using co-ordinates to remember and locate certain cards. What I try to do is just not try too hard to remember it, and just watch and put it in like background memory. That way, I can just kinda recall it or re-remember it when I see the Japanese or English counterpart. We got our software assignment for next term, and it is black jack. I did make a black jack program on python last year, but this one has some different rules. First of all, this one has to have a betting system, and second of all this black jack uses some special r...

There's a movie we've been watching in philosophy, called 12 Angry Men. The movie's about the jury duty of a court case, where a boy is accused of stabbing and murdering his father. All the evidence is presented, the defense attorney and lawyers say their things and its time for the juries to make their decision. It starts off as 11 guilty to 1 not guilty, where it starts to become a discussion and debate, which is the whole point of the movie. It's a good movie, and it played well on the deductive and inductive reasoning we learnt in philosophy. Apparently I have to get my stitches removed, rather than them dissolving or something by themselves. I doubt they're going to tranquilize me for this, so it might hurt a bit. Went to buy the gloves and the hand wraps, but couldn't find any hand wraps. I thought if I bought this half glove half wrap thing it'll work out, but putting on the half glove thing doesn't let me put on the gloves together, so I'...

Went to school today, and it was all fine until last period, where I just could not stay awake. We weren't doing actual work, the teacher was just going over some theory, reading out notes and telling us what we need to know. I couldn't keep my eyes open, and I think I slept for like 20 minutes. The teacher knew that I had surgery before and said it was fine after the lesson ended. I went to the trouble of getting a uniform pass, but none of the teachers actually asked if I had one. I guess not too many teachers care too much.

Staying home to recover from yesterday's surgery. I can't wash my hair for a bit or wear my headset for a bit. I'm currently just connecting my earphones to the computer instead of using my headset. I've been thinking about buying a new keyboard, and getting cherry red keys. The current keyboard I have has cherry brown keys, and I think they're a little bit different. They cost like $100 for good ones. On thursday I'm gonna go with my parents to go buy some boxing gloves for training on Saturday.

Had my surgery today. The actual operation was only like 30 minutes, with the anesthetic lasting around an hour. The rest of the 6 hours was just sitting around, waiting for the doctor and them. The anesthetic was injected into my via a needle, and it worked almost instantly. One moment I was lying on my side, the other I was lying in a bed struggling to move. Whole body was heavy, hard to open my eyes. I don't remember much of what was happening as soon as I woke up.

Just finished my last assignment for this term. Finally no more homework or anything from now on. The English task was not too hard, as we were given a lot of time to work it. We had another substitute teacher for SDD, and this time he had trouble trying to print something, so I gave him a hand. That thing ended up being his payroll though, and I'm not sure if I was supposed to help him with that, as I could've seen his pay. Most of my friends got temporarily banned from GTA V for getting money drops from a hacker. I think they're buying cheap accounts and starting over again.

Had a substitute teacher for SDD, probably because the teacher was sick. We pretty much had a free lesson, because we did get one task, to count the number of words in a given sentence, but that took literally 3 minutes and we just goofed around for the whole lesson. Math is easier than it was before, as most of it is just revision of last year's graphing and functions. English assignment due tomorrow, think I'm pretty much prepared for it. My story is a couple hundred words above the maximum limit, but whatever, I don't think I can cut down anymore.

Woke up extra early to go to the health clinic to get my cyst removed, but I didn't even get it removed. The doctor just said that it'll happen on monday. Did my philosophy assignment yesterday because I thought it was due today, but apparently it was due friday. I kind of rushed it, but since I have to do my english assignment anyway, I just handed it in. The SDD test was quite easy. The programming part of it was quite easy, the only tricky part was the desk check, but you didn't have to do a full desk check on the program, because that would be massive.

Got my math assignment back, and I got 96%. Its not bad, but its not the top mark. There's a lot of people who got 100%. If it was a test, the average wouldn't of been so high, but since it was an assignment, people had a lot of time to do it. I'm also especially not good at assignments. The English assignment is due this friday, but my story is way too long. The maximum word count is supposed to be 1200, but my story is 1800. I really have to cut down a lot. I know what I'm going to write for the reflection, though. Found this Japanese cooking channel with cats that are like dogs. They go on walks and are intrigued by the cooking. They are unlike most cats.

Doing my philosophy assignment on AI, and it's kind of difficult to get my ideas down on paper, as I keep forgetting what to say when I try to write it down. Have my cyst removal thing on Wednesday, which unluckily is the day of my SDD test and my philosophy assignment. Been playing a lot of Sekiro: Shadows die twice, and I have to say, it lives up its genre of being souls-like. The combat is a bit different from the souls games, but the difficulty is definitely very hard. I've died to the same boss like 15 times before I beat it.
