Gaming:
I'm just sad that Xillia is coming to an end. Aside from battling a lot, I viewed the pre-final battle scenes between the party members. Elize seems to have... forgiven Alvin because she feels sorry for him being a lone wolf, apparently. One thing that's so fascinating about her character is that, at the start, Teepo did most of the talking. Now Elize is the dominant talker. They grow up so fast! It was nice to see that Rowen had no indecision whatsoever - usually, it's "Oh no, what am I going to do? Ok, I'll just go with you." I knew everyone was going to join the fight. I mean, come on. It makes sense that Leia's the one who's struggling with deciding, given her age and whatnot. But her crush on Jude (which was obvious even if it was one of the lesser storylines) is motivating her. And her struggle with what she wants to do with her life if he really is better off without her is REAL. At the point in my life I'm at, I couldn't relate to this more (is my crush on Leia obvious? xD, she's not a real person, sadly...).

I forget what Jude and Milla talked about before Gaius showed up to acknowledge what was about to happen and give them Muzet's knife so they can travel between dimensions. I remember after that about the schism disappearing means that Maxwell and the Temporal Crossroads where we fought him disappear, too... and that might also mean Milla disappears. This love triangle where Jude likes Milla and Leia likes Jude is interesting for that reason: Leia is going to let Jude do his own thing but that thing can't be with Milla. It's dramatic. I also like how the final boss here isn't evil or psychotic, he just has a different goal and different philosophy. He's not an idealist and I can understand his take on things. If spyrites aren't going to be a sufficient replacement, however... I lean more toward his side. The "Department of Otherworld Affairs" wants to commit genocide to preserve Elympios, after all. I cannot sympathize with such cruel, savage people who don't realize what it is they're doing. Gilland, however, DID know. Balan doesn't, but is nothing like his father.

I'm going to play through a second time tbqh. I have the necessary Grade (4410 or so) and a strong motivation to play Milla's path at least once. Seems that Jude's is preferred since it has much more of the game in it.

Weight loss:
I got 8,000 steps yesterday! Impressive given that it was a Saturday with way too much humidity. That puts my total at 71,200 across last week. Stoked about that and am aiming for a repeat performance this week.

I also had 4.5 slices of a 12" pizza. Down from 5. Hoping to go to 4 with the next pizza and keep it there for two months before trying to go down to 3, my intended amount. I chose a healthier option for dinner - make-my-own smoothie. Trying to save money by buying various frozen fruits, apple juice, and Greek yogurt as opposed to the $3 mixes. I think I spent like $15 and that should give me 8+ smoothies. Definite improvement.

Will cook that pasta dish tonight.

Other things:
Anyone who hasn't participated in Save My RPG should!

I should finish the finale (but not the reunion) of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains today. It's going slower since I'm watching with my dad. Also need to catch up on BB20, even if I hate most of the people in the house right now for one reason or another.

Not much else.
