a week of highs and lows
if you take apart what happened this week it's in essence super great, but in the end everything kind of fell and left a more bitter than sweet taste in me.
let's take a look:
> expanding my game collection
i looked forward to get a silly little game for the DS called "cooking guide" ("cocina conmigo, ¿qué preparamos hoy?" in spanish). it might feel like the usual shovelware but its developed by nintendo. it taught me back in the day how to cook mac & cheese and i remember it having an amazing recipe of goulash, a turkish stew that tasted like jesuschrist himself lol.
i found that not only a guy sold it along with brain training and 42 all-time classics (another banger) for 5€, but also had listed super smash bros melee with 3 other games (forza 2 + viva piñata, virtua tennis 3 and lost planet 2) for 30€. got them all because didn't have smash bros melee PAL, but ended up feeling guilty about it.
> a gps for my bike
back in april i preordered a carplay/android auto device with dashcam for my bike so my bf and i can travel without getting lost in the process. it finally got delivered this thursday, but now i realized opening the bike to set it up seems kind of a hassle. i'll try anyway but i hope i'm not braking anything in the process... it's a 9k€ toy after all.
> got my blackberry
i got my blackberry, yeah! and while i'm having a pretty amount of fun using it, i wished its browser wasn't that outdated. had to update pretty much every ssl certificate and even then many websites are broken as hell. i'm talking bluesky, backlogged or even bearblog doesn't show like it's supposed to. i got telegram working thanks to telegram x, but now i'm wishing this beautiful piece of tech had current hardware and a modern OS.
> wait... i got a job too???
i'm not unemployeed anymore!!! or i will be on july 29th, the day i'll begin on my new job. is it good news? definitely, but at the same time i'll be responsible for the backend of a whole project and i'm... let's just say the impostor syndrome is kicking pretty hard rn. i hope everything goes right.
and last night got a gastritis attack and had to go to ER. i'm better now, but what a night. damn, i'm so glad this week is over.
