Bad Day!

Where do I start?

This morning at 7am (usually wake up close to day time) I woke up. Couldn't get much sleep since my mind was racing on some thoughts.

I am a Genius! Hidden/Secret Mine Shaft Entrance

Idea: Want to make a mineshaft under my house.

Problem: Want to make the entrance look inconspicuous (despite it's single player) and not stand out when not in use and the switch is removed.

Solution: Use sticky pistons to push and pull the block and a piston to push the block up. Use a NOT gate (red stone torch).

Problem: How to get down without breaking neck, and able to get back up.

Solution: Water Elevator! Ladders will only prevent blocks from being moved or get detached from the wall.

Problem: Water will disappear if there is a solid block on the source water block.

Solution: Put the source block one block away from the path of the solid block and sticky piston. Place it under a block and to the side.

Tried the Demo of Tera Online, Mix Feelings

This was a message I sent to Jeff, who is a chief developer, in Antilia.

Feels of a Call

Lately, I've get these feelings that something is calling me... not just anything, but the school district I graduated from. So far the calls have only been wanting me to take a walk to the elementary school I went to, behind a fence, and look at it. Same with the high school, but on top of a hill at a local church. Haven't gotten any callings from the middle school, however.

I don't know if I should ignore these or... just take a walk to those two places when they call. I could use some air anyway. Who knows... if I visit them, meaning looking at them from a distance and reminisce, I may find something in my mind for closure or fix on how I remember. It is summer break so... got plenty of time.

Old Song, Sad Memories, Future Hope

On the way home from church, this old song, "What Hurts the Most" by Rascal Flatts, was playing on the radio.  I haven't heard this song in... several years.

Sad memories came to my mind while this was being played. A girl I had a crush on, but couldn't admit my love to her. She then moves away by 8th grade, and I felt alone, filled with regret for not saying anything to her.
