Finished Another Drout Lecture


Posted on 01/14/2019 at 11:53 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I think I am following you, @joemikestep right?

I think it's, yet again, another case of me comparing myself to the best of the best and getting down on myself. Prof. Drout is my age but has been teaching for probably 20 years now. I'm just very shy in public. I've been dropping classes if they have too much class presentation stuff in them. Bad. Maybe I can get over it, but it's a tough challenge for me.

I'm trying to find ways to use Twitter more. Casual chat is not that appealing to me. I followed some career related things and professors. Don't know what'll come of it, but whatever.

I put that Confederacy of Dunces book on my list not too long ago. I almost just started reading it but something else got my attention at the time. 

I'm curious about Shenmue I & II. I remember playing the first one on Dreamcast way long time ago. I didn't stick with it long though. Maybe because I wasn't ready for the sandbox experience at the time.

It'd be funny it they stole stuff. It'd give my friend Mark even more reason to knock them off, although, he rarely needs a reason. I have to hold him back all the time. Last time, I was trying to run around and cure villagers who got turned into zombies. I first had to save them from Mark, then get the potions. I like the villagers, they give life to the towns. Mark just kills them all and it gets a little too quiet. I like trading with them too. They give me emeralds and treasure maps.

I really wanted to like Puzzle & Dragons too. I want another Puzzle Quest or Quiz & Dragons.

I love the Great Courses series. I've listened to so many of them now. Mostly music and astronomy.

Ah Valkyria Chronicles 4. Loved the demo. Need to get it when it goes on sale. Wish I could've bought it day-one, because I love that series. Need to get back to DQXI too. I've been kind of down lately and stressed out. That kind of sends me to casual stuff or Minecraft.

I've been meaning to get to Titanfall 2. I was pleasantly surprised by the first game a while back. Titanfall 2 is dirt cheap right now too.

I used to mix it up with podcasts and audio books but now I don't drive as much so. . . I basically do the same but over longer periods of time. I'll get back to podcasts pretty soon when I'm finished this last lecture series I'm on.

I've gotten so into it. I noticed that it gives you a real freedom to do whatever you want. Most games have obvious rules and boundaries. I don't do anything in Creative mode though. I like Survival best. Creative lets you be god basically.

Here's the wikipedia list of sources for the literary canon. I'm just checking it out myself. I've been busy.
