2024-12-09 - Hello

Sup :D This is my first blog, ik so cringe to say that lol
Anyway - I am writing this because I am just soooo frustrated with everything and need something else to do! I am currently 2 months into writing my thesis, 1 month before the end of everything end everyone that I know and love...
Ofc that's just an exaggeration, but it basically feels like that.
I will have to move out, find a job, and if I am lucky enough, move to another big city. If I am unlucky, I will have to stay at my parents' for a bit. Which is not so bad, but I really wanna live with my partner already!!!!!!
As far as my thesis goes, it is going okay. I am quite stressed tbh, since it is 2/3rds of the time done already, and I definitely don't have 2/3rds of my work done. I have about 1/2... And I am shitting bricks, a little bit!
Who knew writing and coding is hard work!!
Anyways, if you are curious - here's what my shitty little game looks like at the moment:



.... Basically nothing lol, you can pick up objects and move around and there is a first-person camera and some furniture in the level.
In case you don't know, I am making (or rather, am supposed to be making) a dementia simulator, but only using object interaction to represent the dementia symptoms. I find it a pretty neat topic, and a lot of people agree. But I am me, so of course I am fumbling a bit with the execution. Mostly with time management and not having anyone to bounce ideas off of.
Also I realised I work really well when starting off from someone's already set framework and building on top of it, but when it comes to starting my own thing, I seem to struggle a lot.
So at least it is started.
But anyways, during the next 2 weeks I will be focusing hard on finishing the theoretical part, i.e. the actual thesis. That does mean I will be pushing the practical part to the side for a while, but man, I just am so done with writing that shit. I wish it was somehow easier, but it's something that every student has to go through, so I guess it is the norm.
Even though I won't have to write any more academic papers in the future... Unless I guess I do my masters, which I doubt would happen. I am kind of focused on getting my degree and then finding a job right after, for now. I need C A S H.
Soooo yeah. Current word count on the thesis -6 425. I have to somehow reach ~13 000. Wish me luck....

I leave you with this:
Go make yourself a tuna pate sandwich :3
