Distractions, distractions...
It appears we missed blogging last week, though it really doesn't feel like it. Time really does fly, especially when you're not doing much HAED. Like me...
I really have been slacking off lately, which is really bad timing as Sae is getting all fired up and doing more than her quota every day. Woe is me! Hurry up and go on holiday Sae.
Here's my progress pic, as you can see, not much difference since the last post :'(
Similar to Sae, one of the reasons why I haven't been doing as much HAED is because I'm trying to finish Lost Odyssey:
I have a really bad habit of never finishing up games. I'll start playing a game, get a fair way into it, and then start another game 'just to try it' and then never go back to that first game. Sometimes I do go back, multiple times even but I can probably count the number of games I've finished in one hand. For example, I started Kingdom Hearts, didn't finish it, went back to it about 2 or 3 years and forced myself to finish it because I really wanted to play the sequel. And now I've played heaps of the sequel but probably won't finish it til the next installment comes out.
But now in order to get me to finish some of the many games I have piled up, Chen-po's made me a rule that I can't buy or start another game until I finish my current game, Lost Odyssey. I'm about 40 hours into it and on the final disc (its got 4 discs) so I can feel the end is near! I would like to finish it before the end of the year.
But *sigh* I really do need to get back to more HAED-ing...

Competition Rules
Competition Begins: 1st May 2008
Competition Ends: Chinese New Year 2013
Goal: Complete a HAED design by the time allotted.
Designs chosen are to be of approximately the same sizes. Contestants are free to change their design half way, however it must also be of the similar size to the original design chosen.
Each month, each contestant will deposit USD$20 into a separate bank account.
Every fortnight, each contestant has to update this blog with updated progress pictures.
Prize Money:
If only one contestant completes her design by the deadline, she gets the total amount of money saved by both contestants.
If neither designs are complete, the entire sum of money is to be donated to a charity that is agreed upon by both contestants.
If both complete it on time, the money is divided in the following manner:
60% of the total goes to the contestant who completes* her design first within the deadline.
40% of the total goes to the contestant who completes* her design last within the deadline.
* For EeL, completion means full completion. For Sae, completion for the 60% winner total is 210,400 stitches, with the remainder stitches to be completed by the deadline.
