Not butter

I'm not as nervous about assignments now, but that's thanks to getting an agenda book.
Which is weird to say since back in the day I never used my agenda at all. I'd get em annually and they'd be backpack filler for the year.
Now though, (well technically since high school) I've found I've needed them.

The oddest part is, it was my comic drawing that started me getting organized. I used to draw pages of just random crap, mostly the Ric-6 (Tino, Tim, Jenny, Amy, Riccy, later Taylor), and started making boxes to remind myself to finish assignments related to RO crap. Which evolved to boxes for each class. And thus agenda.

I still make the pages of random crap drawings. Bit more rare though cuz now I consider them spammy. And a waste of paper.

Yes I made an entire post about agendas.
But I'm not the first. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Schoolin makes me feel good!


Hey Everyone Dyland here!

I may be saying this for the last time in my life, school is back in session! Good to see the gang again, and honestly it's good to be back. Schoolin makes me feel good

Also, work has started up again, first night went flawless in my opinion. It's nice that the bosses saw me doing well and thanked me! 

No surprise but I found out I'm a decent film editor! (Thanks Dill544)

Anywho short post I know! 

But go like my newly merged Facebook page where I update a lot more. 

As per usual feel free to get involved via comments!

Nerves of Paper

Since year 2's/5's beginning, I've had a building anxiety about schoolwork. I've had other anxieties about what I want to do exactly after schools finished (There's assumptions in that and I much prefer winging it, as life has taught me that plans and such typically pan out differently...) but for now, workloads themselves are eating my mind.

I've also found I've been much more tired recently. I'm probably coming down or already fighting some sort of illness, or it could be just seasonal affect disorder. (I've typically disliked fall, it always depressed me...this year it's felt less so so far though.)  It could also be a crappy sleep schedule, though 6-7 hours per night I thought was nominal for adults? (At least it's not 4....anymore...Oh high school.)

Either way I'm feeling less energetic than usual. Which clashes with my dev blog, since I've recently been super productive on my RO things.

I don't get me either. ????

This is the obligatory first day back to school post.

It somehow doesn't feel like a final year, but it definitely is. Everything's going to be TV-centric, and watching TV is now my homework. (A certain someone would love that...)
My class is a bit experimental, as all the equipment has been upgraded (woo!) and many protocols are going to be different because of it. I just hope I can perform as well as I did last year.

So far the biggest things I'm excited for is Weather Newscasting (Always liked meteorology, I'm odd..), TV commercial writing/production, and Editing.
I'm betting I'll look on that last statement in a few weeks and laugh, but as per first impression, that's how I feel. I could maybe see myself being a meteorologist, or at least a weatherperson for a news network at some point. Shall see how things go, of course.

There's also lots of news-casting stuff which I'm much less excited for. I'm not the best at finding and writing news. I'm better at PTEing.
Somehow my interviewing skills from FNWER have dissappeared also...

Another year of trying to improve!


Iron Dyland Man

This guy is on fire!!!!!!!!!!!! #humblebrag

Hey Everyone Dyland here!

Today will go down in the history books! 

I have been more productive today than any other point in my life!

I managed to edit, render, and schedule upload three videos for YouTube.

Walk the dog with Eric Riccy, mow the lawn, play some FIFA 15, play some poor man's American Football, and baseball. 

Have a second walk after supper.

And I even had time for a power nap in which I came up with a mini documentary idea!

With school right around the corner I can't be happier with myself, it feels like I've shaken off the rust of summer and went straight into school mode already!

I really wish I could make enough on YouTube to do it full time! 

Dyland Out! 


Strong Foundation

Hey Everyone! Dyland here!

Guess I have some time to update PTE since I'm currently bed-ridden; at least I can binge watch Red Vs Blue .

It's been an interesting week to say the least. It's never easy going into a new place that seems foreign to you, but thanks to Eric Riccy and his family the transition has been made incredibly easier.

I have a great office which has helped significantly with the production of my YouTube channel that now almost has enough content for the remainder of September. Obviously with school starting up that will impact the uploads, but hopefully my stockpiling will help keep me ahead.

I recently found out I have a scholarship for next semester, which is unfrigginbelievably helpful! But the flip side of that is, I found out that a store that my father, mother, brother and even I once worked at is closing so that puts my family in a real bind. I know there is always someone worse off in the world, but it certainly feels like we can't catch a break.

Anyhow if you'd like to get an update on my YouTube channel click this
If you want to see what I did this past summer click this 

School starts soon so hopefully I feel better by then, if not that's okay I guess.

Pipe Dream

An update on madness here in the wild west:

Renos started Saturday, and by renos I mean attempting to find out the solution to the pipe issue, aka the flood of August.
We opened a hole in the ceiling of the kitchen, and did some tests, and found...

Nothing. Not a single drop of water came through.

The good news is, I have a working shower/tub and toilet again! (And Dylan too...) The bad news is, the freak accident's cause remains unknown and could happen again at anytime.
It's back to a 'we'll see' thing, but until something goes wrong, everything is okay!

In other news, school is starting in less than a week for me. Mine and my new roommate's schedules are hilariously similar which means lots of classes will be spent among friends.

Speaking of which, there's also been many plans of recording series and videos together, which means that if we can get a working set-up then I may be making my youtube channel more alive again! (Or at least my voice will grace youtube, as well as more 4 view videos attributed to me...)

More on that if anything develops! I'm researching good recording software for linux as I post this...


End of the 8

It's now September, and a post is long overdue!

I made codes for every post last month to celebrate endless8, and was going to translate them now. However, I'm a dolt and forgot what they said, so only true code-masters will know what they say. Oops!

My sister's visit went really well, it was awesome to see her again and the week flew by quicker than my entire summer. Aside from when I was in Hometown of course. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Also as you may have noticed from the banner, PTE is set for some epic changes. Changes so epic, PTE protocol has been rewritten. More on that on an upcoming post.

School starts in 10 days for us in New City. Exciting and Nervous can only begin to describe how I feel about my final year.
Hope I don't get senioritis...

Also before you ask, the answer is yes.
