(played on fceux 2.2.2)
finally.
even since my first pb in 1-1afm way back in like, june, my goal had been to get sub 5 before the end of the year. once i got my 5:12, pbing by 40 seconds, i thought it was practically inevitable. this was reinforced when i finally pbed again with a 5:07, then a 5:05, then a 5:03, and finally a 5:02.26.
however, after that it felt like i hit a brick wall.
no matter what i did, or how many attempts i threw at the game, nothing worked. after getting 5:00.43 i felt crushed. like no matter how close i got, i would always fall just short right at the end, and the 20+ runs that died to 8-4 on sub 5 pace confirmed that in my mind.
then, more than a month after my 5 flat, out of nowhere honestly, this happened.
you will get what you want. thank you so, so much to everyone who continued to believe in me, even though i didn't believe in myself. <3
