get better at DDR

I think I’m good enough.

Well, not really… I was playing Max 300 on Standard… which in its own right, a fairly difficult song (8 footer). Well, anyone who knows Max 300 on Standard knows that there’s a first part with a “fast run” (a stream of 1/8th notes at 300 BPM means “move your legs crazy fast”) On the first note in that sequence… CRUNCH I had cracked the right arrow on the DDR pad… I thought those things were indetructible, and my big self manages to break it! But I kept going and going. I got almost to the end (You know, the part that goes doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo, right?) and I failed, and I almost killed myself doing it! But now I will not rest until I pass that fscking song!

I accidentally picked “Graduation” and played it on Heavy. I barely passed it, but it’s so slow and boring, but might actually be a good practice song, since it has those annoying and hard-to-master 1/16th step gallops, which I’m trying to get better at.

Almost there! I can do some songs on Heavy, but I’m at a limbo between Standard and Heavy… I have to practice more complex steps. Currently I’m able to pass Colors, Kind Lady, Look to the Sky (True Color Mix) on Heavy. I’ve been trying Last Message (if anyone knows the steps, I totally trip up on the long part in the middle, and at the end), Ordinary World, and Freckles (Way too many complex steps for a 7-foot song).
