Con Schedule 2016 + Updates
9 years ago
Just so I get rid of my last journal on here, here's a small update of my con schedule this year, as well as other updates in my life. First, the schedule!
TFF: Can't make it this year. :( The timing of the con this year doesn't match up with me financially, unfortunately. Maybe next year will be better.
Wild Nights: Currently planning on being there this year, since I missed it last year and I need a breather from life and my job and any overall stress.
MFF: Currently planning on being there and might even take the same mode of transportation there as I did last year. For all unaware, I took Amtrak to MFF last year, and despite the 5 hour delay I had getting there, I enjoyed the trip. :)
Other Cons: Might try to hit up RMFC, since it's so close to me (~8 hours west). I say might as it happens before I get a refresh on my vacation time at work, so it's currently up in the air.
Now onto the updates!
Life has been on the busy side, mostly with work. I still manage to make it home to visit the parents occasionally, and quite often am out of town, going to the nearest major city to either go to the furmeets there or to visit friends.
Since October, I've been living in an apartment that is much nicer than the one I was living at when I moved here. Why you might ask? Well, the change in ownership of the place and the lack of care taken for it (as well as a rent raise!) were the primary reasons. Had an issue with the neighbors? The new owners went "Oh well." Needed something in the apartment fixed, like the A/C unit in the summer? "You'll be waiting a week." So, just not a good situation. New place is sooooo much better and cheaper even!
Other news is that my video production methods have changed a bit for my YouTube channel. For the longest time (about 3-4 years), I've been using Sony Vegas to do my editing. As of this year, that changed to Adobe Premiere Pro. The primary reason is because I changed video cards in my computer to a better, newer one, but apparently Vegas only supports a certain generation of cards. And given the primary software hasn't updated for about 2 years, I figured I'd better switch to something different.
Well, that's it for now. Later! :D
