Going to bed is what I'm doing now.

Maybe later.

well, I´m rather neutral siding to upset because I finally got a critic about my story (which I abandoned), and let´s say that whatever inch of willpower to try again got crushed

Well, it went on how my writing was bad since I didn´t made good grammar stuff like commas and similar things, then came the issue with pokephilia and humanization of the pokémon themselves, how I´m making the lovable characters different of how they are supposed they need to be and so on.
The thing isn´t the message itself because I always checked for grammar in Word and studied the characters with the wikis, game scripts and the show itself, the lore of the pokémon with what the pokedexes say since I was trying to be as close to how the game puts them, heck I even warned the readers that there would be some bending with the rules like the 4 attack limit.
The thing that bothered me was that in the whole process of posting the story in the internet, there have been no positive or constructive reviews and the negative ones were like hammers against a watermelon. The insecurity became bigger with the lack of any reaction be it good or bad for months.
And what about you? how was your week?
Edit, it is 3 am and I can´t stay awake anymore, goodnight

@Kristia
Sorry to hear. :(
To be honest, I didn't think your story was bad. Sure it wasn't professional quality, but I don't expect it to be. What I did see was that you were improving greatly. As for not going with Canon personalities, that's not a sturdy claim. After all, not all of a particular pokemon "race" act the same, do they? That's why it's called a fanfic. :p
As for me, I've been working a lot, sleeping A LOT, and have been on Mumble a lot. Still on Mumble right now, due to me being too lazy to close it down. :p

Okay guys somewhat bad news.
This following week I'll be quite busy as I have recently gotten a job as a volunteer at the local church (mostly as a cook as the church fixes breakfast and lunch each day) . I'll be working mostly during the day for at least 4-5 hours starting at around 9 in the morning, and thankfully this will only last a week but I will get paid at the most 700-800 dollars (which makes me happy.) On top of that my headset for my computer completely and utterly stopped working. Everything but the mic which does work. Which means I have no sound, and in turn no reason to use it anymore. I also do not have speaker's or in-built speaker's of any kind on my computer or monitor so yeah. I won't be getting a headset for probably a week (it should come in on or before Saturday. Possibly next Monday.)
And since I absolutely hate using a computer with no sound at all (as I can't even listen to fucking music), my activity will also drop on the forums.
In the meantime I will be sorting out some RP stuff in the background (like actually forming the Orientation post for TSU which will be a bit of a doozy on my part.) So those in TSU, please hold off on it in the meantime. I promise I'll at least try to do something this week (despite me hate using a computer with no sound.) So until then TSU, and IP will be on partial hold.

well utsuh, that happens when you have next to no feedback and the ones you get are bad mostly. So yeah, the ship sank barely leaving the docks.
It is good that you are resting and getting some sleep too
I don´t see the those as bad news SUS, you are getting a job and getting good money for it, it will help you a lot.

Well it's bad news for my activity for the forums. As for the money and all, yes it is good and will help me out a lot.
Anyways in good news... My friend had surprised me with a Turtle Beach X12 Earforce headset (which is $60.) Got it all set up and stuff... and I had already ordered a $30 dollar headset off Ebay...
Well then. At least I'll have a spare with the one I'm getting in a week.
