Hi guys! Another change I've decided to implement is I'm going to hop on the bandwagon with pastebin monday \o/. If you don't know what it is, all it means is I'll post a pastebin every monday.

To start off, I'm quite happy with the frequency I am now streaming. I recently began Hotel Dusk: Room 215 and am having a fantastic time with that. I'll most likely continue that on Tuesday. Just yesterday, I finally finished a run of both who wants to be a millionaire and are you smarter than a fifth grader. The payoff? My rugrats: search for reptar disc isn't working again. This disc is one which I have had problems with in the past, so I might need to begin a hunt to replace it.

	That all being said, I have a bunch of speedrun marathons and races I'm participating in quite soon. On the 18th, I will be participating in a heptathon relay race through Scooby-Doo: Night of 100 Frights. That's why I began speedrunning the game earlier this week. Once heptathon is done, I might do a few meme runs as well. I also might be doing another cool event on the 18th, but I can't confirm as of now. I'll leave you hanging in suspense I suppose.

	Also recently created/announced is the 1545 race! Basically, it's the sprashfecta (Spyro 1-3 and Crash 1-3 all 100%) combined with the 602 (SM64 120, SMS 120, SMG 120, SMG2 242) and the rareware 301 (Banjo-Kazooie 100%, Banjo-Tooie 100%, and DK64 101%). That being said, it's a relay race. I will be performing some combination of the crash trilogy and spyro 1, but it won't be until the summer. check out a trailer for it here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZicHRmcxZA

	SGDQ is the first week of July, however I am fairly confident I will not be going. While I enjoyed AGDQ a bunch, I have a job during the summer that I need to be at, and convincing my parents to let me take time off to go would be difficult. Not to mention the cost of going would be a lot for a college student to handle. Finally, a speedrun marathon called fleetfest will occur in April-ish. i submitted around five games to it so we'll see what gets in.

	My next speedrun goals are to come back to Spongebob: Battle for Bikini Bottom, and Minecraft: Set Seed runs. Both are games and categories I believe I have a bunch of untapped potential in, so let's have fun with it. I also need to continue to improve my SD: No100F run for heptathon, since i have six others who are counting on me. Finally, I really want to begin doing some pokemon speedruns, specifically emerald and pearl. Pokemon is one of my favorite series, but this new generation (Sun/Moon) I can't seem to get into. It no longer feels like pokemon to me, I guess. Anyways, I might do a one-off speedrun of emerald with a twist - I'm gonna use torchic since torchic is my homeboy! Speaking of torchic, anyone see him on stream at AGDQ? He's there on TasBot Skype call, as well as in between many speedruns.

	I think that covers everything I wanted to talk about. I hope everyone has a great Monday. I know I won't, since I already missed a class today due to my alarm not going off. I'll see you guys later, I guess! - robthegamer115
