thebrokenarrowsimportant memories from last night:
the ride home, listening to Clock Lock Works [it's a Miku vocaloid song] and during the instrumental break, the Toy Soldier appeared before me. looked me in the eye, and from within the vicinity of his chest came a soft sound: the whirring and clicking clockwork sounds in the song i was listening to. it was such a stunning image -- of course it makes sense for him to have clockwork and/or a metronome inside him where his heart would be, accept no substitutes -- and him pointedly making clockwork noises at me means something important, i know.
idk if i mentioned, but i got my shiny Gengar holding a Mega Stone yesterday at game stop! the guy told me that I had to preorder it to get it???? which is NOT how it's supposed to be, i wonder what shady manager told them that. luckily, since he likes me and sees me around often [bc pokemon lmao], he gave me one free. i'm going to try and get two more, for my three copies of XY. even if i have to travel around to different gamestops, ahaha.
why do i have three copies of XY, you ask? [specifically one X and two Ys?] WELL... mostly just because i bought my cartridge Y version first, which is still my main one and the one on which i store all my pokemon, then a few months later i bought X version used, and THEN... they were doing a sale in March of this year where if you buy animal crossing [among a few other games], you can download a copy of X or Y for free! i already had two copies, but how was i going to pass that up?? me and bb both did it. :D i don't regret it at all, i love the teams i have on all three versions, and it's been a different ride every time. MAN i love pokemon did i say that enough yet???
so total topic change:
last night i got told a number of times, as i do pretty regularly lately, that I have a great voice and should do voice over/radio/audiobook type work. i'm kinda starting to legitimately look into that kind of work. only one thing... i'm planning on CHANGING my voice! shit! i have a great "friendly female voice" when i want to, but like... who knows if i'll be able to go back to that, who knows if my voice will still sound as pleasant when i transition?? you know?? so i'm a little hesitant to dive headfirst into this sort of thing, at least not the corporate world of voice work anyway. maybe something more indie, where i'm not tied to a contract or whatever? but i can control my work a bit, maybe. i don't know. it's kind of an acting job, which is fine, but i know that actors get manipulated like crazy. i've seen it firsthand with my bb already. EEHH but on the other hand I don't want to let my hesitation stop me from a possible career! [and hey, maybe after my voice changes i will still be able to go back to my "old" voice and switch between the two for SUPER GOOD NARRATION SKILLS??]
ugh! suddenly i remember my dream! or... sort of?? i suddenly got flashes of it, of where i was, but not clearly enough to write down. but i feel like it was important to something! i hate that.
