Toby's Update

Tobias Münch updated The Tobysite a couple of days back.  I liked the way he started the update -

Karthik obviously has a lot of free time. I'm going to steal some from him, and leave some of my work for him. Hehe. Fact is, he just released yet another new level for Doom 2.

Of course, I had a smile on my face when I read that, but it also got me thinking.  I often wish that I had more time to do the things I like to do (work on my site, make Doom levels, draw, watch movies, etc.).  I often feel like I'm fighting to get some time to do all these things.  After reading what Toby said, though, I realise that I should probably be more optimistic!  I DO get time to do the things I like, and although it's not as much as I would like it to be, it isn't too bad!  Not everyone is that lucky!

I think of my brother, who has so much to study always, that he doesn't get the time to do the things that HE likes to do (hey, leave that alone, he doesn't even get time to sleep and relax much).  He is doing his Junior Intermediate and he has this exam called EAMCET that he will be writing the next year.  Now doing well in this exam will get you entrance into a good Engineering college.  The thing is, the exam is being made more tougher every year, and I feel that is just TOO bad!  In fact, I think that this whole system of making students work harder than they need to and want to, is just **fill in your favourite swear words here**!!  But, like I've said before, no one will listen to me, will they?  I'm just glad I got through all that stuff back in 1999, for me EAMCET and everything related to that is dead, buried, resurrected, vampirified, slayed and sent back to wherever it came from!  And that's where it should stay.

Speaking of Tobias, I was just listening to some songs on my Winamp playlist here, and his Moments of Despair is playing now.  Nice song.

Dark Fate 2 is a singleplayer level for Doom II, replacing MAP01.  It's a small-sized hellish level — and there's a walkthrough video as well.
