Neocities.org

Celebrating 1003 updates to surenaga.neocities.org -- very confused but still full of joy.

I still remember when the kind a-rok taught me how to get the page I wanted to be featured front and center on my updates. My follower count was in the single digits, page views below 3000 and update count in the dozens. Now the rules have been turned upside down. How far we've come.

This was supposed to be a videogames entry but it went in a hyperjaded direction so I made it into a Social media entry instead. It's been three years since I started this webpage, so I might as well finally add something to that section... I didn't even have a folder for it in my webpage edit tools yet.

That makes it 2 negative toned entries in a row. Next it's gonna be reviews of anime I actually like.

Strong words from someone entertained by "Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata" (it's got Atsuko Tanaka AKA Kusanagi and the very underrated Ayaka Nanase so it's at least good for your ears)

Aww, I thought this would talk more about how Trigger shows have similar themes and events happen despite being technically different stories.

@lhfm in my view it's not worth the trouble when others already have done it and I don't need to dig that deep to determine this animated TV show's worth.

If I had been following the plans I had set for myself, without any interruptions, by this time I would have a couple of Nobel prizes under my belt, I would have turned the internet and adjacent subcultures upside down, brought about a second renaissance (the cool type not the matrix type) and would be deep in a multi-layered volatile-fronted feud with holeinmyheart and kazuhisa over the crown of King of neocities.

Instead, I said it was ok to do five extra hours for a week in july 2021...

I like money tho

Despite Hanon Exercise 20 being the biggest of all the entries written so far, the YTMND takes center stage for obvious reasons.

I'm not even done writing the draft for exercise 20, but the exercises afterwards will be much easier to talk about.

November is ending and I'm only at the exact halfway point to getting the Hanon log up to date...

Honestly though, your dedication to piano, Japanese, and other learning goals is admirable. 💪 When I study, there are always productivity dips in various subjects, but I always try to cycle back around.
