A Somewhat Lost Sunday


It was another rainy day or weekend as per the weather permits and while I am not yet 100% recovered, I decided to just stay the boarding house today after last night’s hotpot and MTG session at Mawe’s place. I might or might not write a separate post for that and so the question now is: what did we do today?

Yeah well, it was supposedly laundry day today based on old regular schedule but when there was no chance of sunlight and that the other peeps here were also doing theirs, I decided to just cancel this task and went to check the Pro Tour Day 2 results.

I opened the stream this morning in time for the Semifinals of the Silver Showcase. The format was the Rochester draft of cards from the oldest sets Beta, Arabian Nights, Legends and the like. I think they only drafted Beta but nevertheless their decks composed of these old iconic cards which were at that time I was only a child in my Elementary days. The semis match 1 was between Hall of Famer Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa and Jason “Amaz” Chan, a popular Twitch streamer while the second match was between Stanislav Cifka and Jon Finkel, which also one of the iconic players of this game. I would also applaud Cifka’s achievement from being a Chess champion to that of winning a Pro Tour and next gaining high finishes in Hearthstone major tournaments. I wish I am also that intelligent and skillful.

After being done with the live stream, I turned to check my blog and looked at the pending topics that I should be writing and not this sort-of-a-rant. I then decided to just go with another decklist, a budget Mono White Cats as per price basis. I finished and posted the list around lunchtime and took the food break pondering on the minor topics.

Come afternoon and still no motivation for another blog post and so I decided to check on my laptop’s Movies folder to see which ones I have not watched yet. I found this one my Downsizing starring Matt Damon, a science-fiction type but still have implications in a way to the society, government and economy. It was fascinating to see their concept of downsizing people in order to save the environment and the Human species in the end part but then again it has its pros and cons.

What to do this evening? Maybe have more readings. I am partially preparing myself for the hectic semester of DURP next weekend and since this will be the last one, I would expect to be more knowledgeable and spend more time studying. This is sort of redemption of my school performance last semester. While this may not be subject specific but I am looking to be more on learning the related concepts of urban planning or maybe just the basic concept of ‘planning’ in a sense to make it personally make sense.

Again, wish me luck and that is a wrap. It is not that lost, is it?
