Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika I don't care, at least say something stupid when you set your profile picture.

Tomorrow is a report day at my school.
Parents will go to school to take the report of their kids, meet with the class teacher, the class teacher will have some discussion about the progress of each students in their class.
Some students need more support from their parents due to lower scores on some subjects, some students need some behaviors change according from how did they behave in the school and in their place.
So far, I heard there was one student in grade 4 that his report paper was printed on ordinary paper, not on official report paper due to a lot of under scores on almost every subjects + he had some problems in his behavior at the school. His class teacher will have serious discussion with his parent to fix his behavior in study the lesson as he had low motivation to study hard, still have difficulty to understand the questions from worksheet or test paper, working slowly in the class, have tendency to get into physical fight with his friend when he felt upset.
I saw that student didn't even have any enthusiasm at the school like I never saw him have good energy to study the lesson. Instead, I saw his lack of motivation to study the lesson. He was also having lack of compassion with his friend so he was easily to get into fight or argument with his friends from very trivial matters. He couldn't follow almost every lesson due to lack of effort to try harder even understanding the questions before answering.
I saw that behavior since he was grade 1 when I had a chance to give him a private teaching for 1 month about reading and writing English and Indonesian language lessons, he just didn't want to try hard to remember what he had learnt just now. For example, I have explained how to spell certain alphabets by pointing on certain letters and when I asked him what letters I pointed on, he didn't even want to memorize what letters I asked about so I have to repeat so many times to make him understand and try to memorize them.
I wish the best for him to change his behavior and have motivation to study hard.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Ok. I'll either set my profile picture to Nagisa from Assassination Classroom or Venti from Genshin Impact.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Whatcha need help with?

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko I believe he's trying to crack a code.

@TeaCatherine I see. Want good music?

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Well, I don't want bad music so I suppose so.

@TeaCatherine

I'm the only person you know who can choke on a peanut they ate 10 minutes ago.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko How the heck did you manage that?

@TeaCatherine I don't have a clue. I also choke on my own spit on a daily basis.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko That's unlucky.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Right! I forget there’s a book. No kidding there friendships was Insane to the tenth degree, and I always found it off that people shipped them, Marcy? I understand where it comes from, but Sasha? Heck no, that wouldn’t have looked good whatsoever.

@Snatcher I like the Tanjiro gif.

Well, my laptop's going to die soon, so...

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Ah, Magalore.... Definitely an interesting character. I recently encountered him for the first time in Return to Dream Land.

@Anti-Matter I may try Star Allies eventually, though it isn't a main focus of mine right now. As for Return to Dream Land, new copies are pricey here in the US, but I found a used version of rja game for a fairly decent price. I'd wait for the Switch version if I were you though. I bought the game secondhand and played through it literally right before the Switch announcement. XD

I've played a couple of other 2.5D platformers here and there. I also like the Donkey Kong Country games.

@MarioLover92 I highly encourage you to finish those other DKC games you mentioned when you get the chance. ESPECIALLY Tropical Freeze. I think it's the best of the bunch thanks to QoL improvements. Glad you did revisit XC1 and beat that boss! That game is amazing. I've got a lot of my gift wrapping done, but I'm still waiting to secure a present... hopefully today.

As much as I like CGI when it's done well, in terms of animation I prefer hand drawn work. The former is faster and cheaper, sure, but I quite like the care, uniqueness, and workmanship that comes with hand drawn cartoons. New or old, there's certainly a lot of character (pun intended) that comes with the art form.

Keep in mind the earlier sales are usually digital. Thinking on it again, I might wait too. Usually their titles get a hefty physical discount at one point or another too. I also would rather focus on games I have. Thankfully, there aren't many games I want day one for the next while barring *Tears of the Kingdom". I'm interested in other titles, but they can wait lol.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Thinking about it more, man did those girls have issues, but that what made the show great, all the characters had, well, character, and had flaws.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Demon slayer GOAT.

@MarioLover92 Glad you had a good weekend! If you're a Disney fan I def recommend it. Few bugs here and there but nothing major, I'm really hooked on it at the moment haha

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Oh, there are a TON of videos regarding video game and tv show innuendos out there lol. I had to look up the Kirby one you mentioned. Ironically I've played the game the "naked lady" is found in, but I'd never seen the full map for the level in question until now.

@Tyranexx Thanks for the encouragement, I'll try to remember to come back to them. Yeah, Tropical Freeze is such an awesome game, so I'd like to finish it at some point. Glad I finished that boss in XC1, I went back to the area I left off in, and fought some enemies to get some more EXP. It took me a few tries to finish that boss fight, but I persevered. Best of luck on securing that present, I'm pretty much all done with Christmas shopping for my family. Now I just have to wrap them!

Honestly, I like hand-drawn animation more as well. It feels like there's a lot more effort put into hand-drawn animated features in general, and I find them more charming, too! It does help that I have a lot of nostalgia for hand-drawn animated movies, since we had a lot of Disney films on VHS when I was much younger. I do like CGI when it's done well, too. The more recent Disney movies like Tangled and Frozen pull it off very well IMO.

Gotcha. Digital can be a good option for me, though it depends on the game. Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to Tears of the Kingdom, as well. I just want to finish Breath of the Wild first, since it is a direct sequel.

@DreamlandGem Ah OK, nice! I'll be sure to pick it up from the eShop at some point. Yes I'm a Disney fan, and I've spent so much collective time on some Animal Crossing games. New Leaf and New Horizons, more specifically. Glad to hear that you're enjoying it!
