Expert Minesweeper

Björk - [Like Someone in Love]--- I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm OK. Shit, i'm dead.

This is high-level shit, here, kid. You don't get to not be sure of what you're doing. You think you can mis-step, and it's all fine? Someone's going to hold your hand, and molly-coddle you through it? How many people have told you how good you are? How many people have told you they believe in you, and that you really are going to be fine? You just don't fucking listen is all. Keep half-heartedly clicking away. No, it never matters, does it? (Warren Zevon - [Mr. Bad Example]). You're two centimetres from a horrible explosion.

Pay attention to what the fuck you're doing.

You'll do fine.

Fuck you, if you don't believe it, by now.

Wow. Talk about your analogies.

I cannot win Expert for the life of me. Literally. It gets the point where no matter what, you have to make a guess. Is it better to make a blind guess, or take the one out of two chance? Does it depend on how far along you are? Should you spend the time calculating that risk? Is it all too much? If you have enough OCD, it is. I just found a puzzle book in my room. Ima be all about the logic problems for weeks now. I heart Penny Press.

Yeah. Realised that I was projecting.

Gotta take the shot, sometimes. Sometimes you explode, but eventually you'll win. That's how I did. At expert, it's the only way. And, if you really care, you have to remember to pick yourself back up, and do it again.

Considering that I'm currently slogging through my last night (which is becoming my last all-nighter) of the semester with two important papers I unwisely put off, almost unable to focus on the task at hand through the sweet haze of soon not having to do anything at all and getting a bit stupid about it... I appreciated this post.

Granted, I could be taking it horribly wrong. But then, if it works, don't knock it, eh?

I'm glad you appreciated it. I'm pretty sure you read it correctly.
