A bit demotivated and frustrated. Girlfriend wants to start a YT cooking channel for some months now, all the equipment arrived a month ago already but i had/have my back issues, yesterday we made a test shot and i am absolutely not satisfied with the outcome.
This is not aimed at making big money, more so that my girl got something fun to do and also something that we have that we do together but still, the outcome sucked. I just did not manage to get a good angle at all and we also have to set up the tripods differently (already worked at that after shooting for a bit yesterday), we also most likely need to buy a third light or rather a softbox. I am also not entirely happy about the quality of our phone cameras, if worst comes to worst we need to spend money on a camera. We got the money, but an additional 300€-400€ is much, much more than what we initially wanted to spend on this. First time in my life i am regretting not being an Apple nigga, with a last-to-current gen iPhone this would be a non-issue.
My back is giving me shit today because of monkeying around with the filming yesterday, sitting in front of her laptop right now and even after just 10 minutes i feel my lower back painfully throbbing. Gonna go to the orthopedic station of my hospital today to continue treatment (as was planned when i left the clinic on the 23rd of last month), i hope i don't have to wait all day there, website predictably doesn't list their open hours and no one is picking up the phone. It's across the street so i am not too bothered about that. All in all the back is getting better, did some squats yesterday and the pain while doing that was manageable. Can't do any abs exercises yet, with those movements it hurts to much. I am pretty sure i won't be needing an operation down the line for this shit and it will all be fixed by physio.
Still got that issue with my left arm, which absolutely will end in an operation, an operation i should've had two years ago but i am retarded and thought it would go away on its own. My body is a wreck and working on it will most likely be the main focus for me this year.
Edit: Also just got off the phone with my landlord
CUNTS, the heater in my kitchen is on the fritz (put a space heater in it already to not freeze to death when sitting or filming here) and it's probably a year since work in my bath got done and they still haven't put the tiles in place again. "I will pass it along" yeah, like the last 20 times you said that? Fuck them, seriously.
You're probably thinking of @Lingering butter taste, RIP in pepperonis
kek, didn't know she got the strikethrough. Well deserved, she worked hard for it.
I'm working on losing weight, and I have lost close to 40 pounds already
Pretty good. Keep at it. First thing Dr. will tell me today is most likely to lose weight to put less strain on my back. Was at 80kg when i left the clinic on Dec 23 but am at 86kg again already as of today, it is ridiculous how fast i gain if i don't watch what i eat. I could pretty much eat all day, if i were in the US with its overabundance of delicious and unhealthy food i would've been morbidly obese for years by now.
She would need to be violent or otherwise an active threat in order for that to happen due to the laws here.
It's the same here. I still got a neighbour like yours here in my house, hardcore addict and full-blown BPD (according to herself). At least i'm one of the two guys here that she likes and gets along with. I don't really know why she took a liking to me, i always keep her at arms length and keep small talk to a minimum when i see hee in the stairwell or out on the streets. I still get to enjoy her shitty techno music at 4AM and her violent outbursts in the stairwell when she brought yet another new dude home. Complete madness with her, she's also already in her 40s. I also don't want to discourage you but my experience with contacting the landlords over shitty neighbours (not the girl i was talking about before) never lead to anything. The housing situation in your country is probably as shitty as in mine but i'd urge you to find a way to move, any way, this is no way to live (again, speaking from personal experience).
For some stupid reason I decided to start intermittent fasting
Not eating until noon was easy
But now I can't eat until tomorrow noon and I'M FUCKING HONGRY, HOMBRE
Been there. Still the fastest and easiest way to lose weight for me once my body and mind got used to it. Did 4/20 over months at the end, with a high deficit, and still felt like a competitive eater when i sat down to have my one big meal of the day, like 2kg/4.4 pounds of oven roasted zucchini with a kilo/2.2 pounds of skinless chicken breast in one sitting and shit.
Sorry for the millions of replies, just caught up with the thread.
