They have their ups and downs that's for sure.

One place I worked in had rather fast lifts and when I found myself as the only occupant I tried to jump just as lift started down, if I got the timing right I sort of floated for a few seconds before gravity realised what I was up to and put a stop to my little game.

That's a lot of series. I only watch one at a time, otherwise I can get confused. It's one of the hazards of getting old .

Yesterday I finished watching the first season of Sounds of Life. This is another one of those Slice of Life series based around the members of a high school club, but this one is rather different to the usual stories. The club in question is the Koto club, a Koto is a large traditional Japanese stringed instrument. With all but one of its members having graduated the sole remaining member is looking for new recruits to keep the club from being disbanded but the members he gets aren't quite the sort he would have wanted because several of them have, well earned, reputations for being delinquent trouble-makers and fighters and another is a highly talented Koto player from a prestigious family who is rather scathing about everyone else's skill level. The club has a lot of problems ranging from hostility from other students, a vice principal who would like the trouble-makers expelled and the Koto club shut down and a club advisor who'd rather the club didn't exist. The Koto club isn't the harmonious happy group of friends that we normally get in this sort of series, but as the series progresses we learn the backstories of the main characters and their reasons for joining the club and we see the club slowly coming together. While I wouldn't say I enjoyed watching this series, it's not a fun storyline, but on another level I did enjoy watching as the characters tried to overcome their pasts and strive to produce something good between them The artwork and animation are of a decent quality and it has quite a good and interesting storyline so I'm looking forward to watching the second season.

I've watched the "Colors" music video a couple of times and I can't make head nor tail of it. The animation just starts and looks like a series of random incidents between two girls, then when the song ends the video abruptly ends and gives me the impression that the video was just background images for the song and once the song was over the video was just cut off because it wasn't needed any more. Overall I found it a rather poorly made music video when compared to Porter Robinson & Madeon's music video "Shelter", which actually told a story.

Excellent work.

Welcome to the forum. Pull up a cushion, or a chair if sitting on the floor isn't your thing, and make yourself at home. Don't worry about being shy, lots of people have trouble talking or posting replies etc to people they don't know. Try joining in with some of the little games that we have here, most only need a one word reply, and just clicking on the "like" button is fine too. Oh, and don't worry too much about spelling or grammar, while it is important to get these right no one here is going to complain if you don't get them right.
