I want to go to bed to get my mind off things, but I can't sleep because I can't get my mind off things...
Good evening :v:
how to know someone was on your steam account at school:
substance designer 5 and painter were uninstalled so that they could download just cause 3.
... when did I get just cause 3??? I don't remember buying it.
Is it bad that I keep getting more frequent headaches?

Fucking christ I need a job or a hobby or something to do other than sit in my basement and be a lazy sack of shit all day. Ever since school ended I've spent the last 5 fucking months sitting on my ass in my basement doing nothing but playing video games and watching shit on Youtube. I've only seen my friends once since school ended and that was at graduation nearly 4 weeks ago. I haven't had any interaction with anyone aside from my family, and even then they're either upstairs doing their own thing or they're at work. I'm the only one in this family who doesn't have a job and doesn't do anything productive. My only hobby right now is video games and I'm beginning to find it harder and harder to start playing them and its even more of a challenge to finish them. I'm not sure if its because I'm getting tired of them or what. Since I have nothing else to do I spent all my time playing games and I think I burnt myself out on them.
Maybe that's why I spend so much time thinking about my stories and my novel ideas. It's because those worlds are exciting and my world is so boring. I make these amazing stories and plan out these expansive worlds because mine isn't cutting it. I don't want to sound like I'm depressed, I'm really not. My life's alright, but I really wish it was something more.
Maybe I should listen to my mom and go off to college. It would give me something to do and focus on instead of being a useless shit who's quickly losing contact with my friends.

Believe me, I would love to, but I'm quickly losing all motivation to do anything.
Even if I get off my ass and start writing, I can't make up my mind on if I want to write down ideas or if I want to just jump right into writing something.
My problem is that my brain thinks in scenes when it comes to writing. I have all these ideas for intricate, very thought-out scenes in my head, but I can never find a way to connect them and make a plot out of them.
I think what would be best if I just jumped right into it and started from there. Making things up as I go has gotten me through public and high school, I don't see why it shouldn't work here.

you have to actually start writing something if you're ever going to be able to connect them
you don't just jump out of the gate and start a novel, you have to plan and outline and write a bunch of stuff before the first word of a novel ever hits the page
play around with the stuff you're thinking of, write it all down and see where it takes you
do physical activities it helps endolphins

when my family became american citizens they grilled us a steak
i used to have an extra brother but he wanted well done steak so he was deported back
So it turns out that even though I'm not doing so hot in my classes this semester, I should still be able to move on to next semester as long as I'm not on academic probation. Now I just gotta find the will to get stuff done before it's too late.

Treat finding a job like a full time job. Get a dress shirt and dress pants combo that makes you feel confident and good and hand out resumes to places hiring or by going to job placement offices. If you can find something part time or full time you can start bringing in money to help with college and it'll make you appreciate your free time more.
If you're work is relatively quiet you can also use it as time to reflect on stories without being distracted by vidya and dank memes.

For those curious the stories I've been thinking up are a weird mix of fantasy and sci-fi and there's an Avatar thing going on where it's two different stories within the same universe, but at different time frames. Both take place on a big-ass floating island that was once home to a mysterious and highly advanced "original race", or the race who made all the hidden super science-y bases and shit hidden on the island. Think of them like the Dwemer from the Elder Scrolls: Super advanced for the time but they're just gone.
Story #1 is set in the island's past with a heavy focus on the fantasy aspect with some minor sci-fi touches hidden throughout. The most basic, broken-down form of the story is the Emperor of the island loses his wife to elven assassins and becomes the most racist asshole and decides to kick out every non-human on the island, or kill them if he can. In his rage he completely neglected his infant son, who was taken from the Emperor and given to an army veteran living in a small village to the extreme north. 26 years later the army veteran has died from unknown causes and Vantos, the Emperor's son, was raised as farmboy with no idea of his past. He wants to see the world and explore but at the same time wants to stay at home and live a normal life. Eventually he meets a wandering girl with dark red hair named Lucia(name subject to change). The two hang out for a bit and eventually they both leave for the next city over, Vantos to get more bolts for his crossbow and Lucia cause she wants to see the city. Some shit goes down and Lucia is taken by the reigning prince of the city, who wants Lucia to be his personal maid. Vantos doesn't like this and goes back home to get his adopted father's giant-ass purple greatsword. Using this sword Vantos hacks and slashes his way into the prince's castle, kills said prince, rescues Lucia and then escapes the city.
After this I'm not really sure what comes next. I know that Vantos and Lucia eventually start traveling the island on a mission to kill ever member of the royal family because they're a bunch of oppressive douche-nozzels. As the two go on they make more friends who join them on their journey, like any good RPG that gives you more characters as you go. An over-arching plot-point is the mysterious giant-ass purple greatsword and its relation to the history of the island and the extremely technologically advanced original race that made it. As Vantos, Lucia, and co. kill more and more of the island's royalty they're actions inspire on of the royal princes begins organizing a rebellion with the intent of overthrowing the Emperor. Vantos and the gang join this rebellion when it becomes public, but Vantos doesn't trust the leader and is only using the prince's forces to further his own agenda. About half-way throughout the story Vantos is captured by cultists serving the Emperor and is forcefully transformed into an immortal lich, separating his soul from his body and binding it to his literally indestructible giant-ass purple greatsword. The story ends with Vantos and his friends leading an assault on the Emperor's castle, fighting their way into the throne room. The Emperor stuns them with a magical blast, takes the giant-ass purple greatsword and uses it to literally unlock the core of the island. The Emperor plans on using the massive amounts of energy in the core to wipe out the non-human races and make himself the greatest wizard ever. Through some magical mcguffin magic from Vantos the Emperor is blasted to shit and peace comes to the land. Shortly after Vantos kills the leader of the rebellion, who wanted the throne for himself and was a super jackass.
In between Story #1 and Story #2 Vantos' marries Lucia and has a bunch of kids. Eventually Lucia and all of Vantos' friends die from old age, leaving the immortal Vantos alone. He fakes his death and then spends years protecting the people of the island from any threat using his giant-ass purple greatsword and his suit of masked, black armor. Eventually he determines that the people can defend themselves, he shoves his sword into a rock on a mountain and never picks it up again(original idea right there). Depressed and looking for something to do, he begins studying the lost technology left behind the island's original inhabitants and brings technology to the world. He pretty much reverse-engineers electricity n shit from ancient science bases, gives it to the smartest bastards of the time and says "have this thing that will do nothing but help society, do something with it". He does this for hundreds of years, slowly introducing more and more tech until it snowballs and society can develop shit on their own. Once that is done, Vantos bides his time and waits for someone he deems worthy to draw his sword. (again, original idea donut steel).
Story #2 takes place about 40,000 years in the future and the island's inhabitants learned to co-exist and they built huge cities with cars and trains and shit. They've mastered technology and have electricity, tv, radio, and robots 'n shit. The Empire still exists, the ruling family directly descended from Vantos and Lucia. The current Emperor, a young man named Holias (name subject to change) goes missing before an important meeting between the leaders of the elves and the dwarves and the other non-human races. Holias' disappearance creates a lot of tension on the island, with many believing the Empire is weakened from his disappearance. A whole bunch of different factions want to capitalize on this to further their agendas. The cunty elven king wants to use political suggestion and assassinations to slowly give himself more political power, eventually culminating in him becoming the ruler of the island. The council of the island's biggest, most advanced city wants to continuously expand and declare its independence from the Empire and is using the Emperor's disappearance to do so while the Empire is distracted and weakened. A religious neo-knightly organization known as the Vantosian Order worship Vantos as a god and want to continue his mission of freeing people from the oppression of the Empire. They built a fortress around the stone that Vantos left his sword in and believe themselves to the true heirs to Vantos' sword.
A few years before the Emperor disappears a super smart elven scientist named Uril Kyontu creates the first artificial human (think synths from Fallout 4 but less stupid). This artifical human was modeled after Uril's deceased daughter, and for all extents and purposes is meant to be her. This android learns to hate her existence as a science experiment and escaped. Knowing that Uril would be looking for her, she wipes her memories and changes her face(again, think synths from Fallout 4, the Railroad helping them escape). Believing herself to be a human woman named Asyl, she wanders the island with memories of a fake past and a sense of adventure. She finds herself in the fortress of the Vantosian Order during they're celebration of Vantos' victory 40,000 years ago. During this event they invite everyone to try drawing Vantos' sword from the stone, as they have been for years. Because Vantos is still around, he doesn't let just anyone draw his sword. When Asyl tries drawing the sword after one too many drinks, Vantos releases it. Asyl is then heralded as the next Vantos. Asyl begins training with the Vantosian Order somewhat against her will and is eventually sent to a mountain range far north to find Vantos' armor that he left there 40,000 years prior.
From here things start to get disjointed and are more focused on individual moments rather than a single, cohesive story. Asyl is eventually brought to the capital of the Empire to meet with Velette, Holias' younger sister and acting Empress. At the suggestion of Velette's council of royal advisors, Aysl is made Velette's personal knight. A few months pass and Aysl and Velette develop a strong friendship and Asyl develops a crush on her(who's down for a gay tomboy with giant-ass purple greatsword). On the night of an as-of-yet unnamed festival in the Capital, Asyl sneaks Velette out of the castle to get a taste of life away from her royal duties. They spend some time fucking around during the festival and then watch the fireworks together. Then they start making out. After they get the mushy love stuff out of the way they go back to the castle and some more time passes. The next significant event that happens is a royal advisor is killed in a botched assassination attempt on Velette's life. After this Asyl takes Velette to the big-ass highly advanced city south of the Capital. They meet with Uril Kyontu, who was told by some royal advisor or someone to grant asylum to Asyl and Velette. They are given an apartment made from a small warehouse in the artisan district of the city.
Holy fucking christ I wrote a lot. Why in the name of fuck can I write so much about this on fucking Facepunch of all places but when I go to write it down elsewhere my brain shuts down. Holy shit I had more of this planned out than I thought.
