So... I'm sure some of you are wondering what had become of me. If you aren't then please fake it for my sake. Life has gotten unbelievably busy, busier than I think it's ever been. But I'm back, after a few weeks, with no intentions of leaving again any time soon. Here's a quick update on my life in the last 4 weeks:

-I'm going to the ACM conference again (today, actually) this is the same conference I went to last year where I got to see an Ageia Physics card in action and such. Look forward to highlights this Sunday night.

-I'm enjoying my work as webmaster for The Innovative Network @ IWU. MY new site design, created by me by hand in notepad, is currently up and functioning (almost perfectly) http://tin.indwes.edu is the URL.

-I've met a few girls... 2 in particular, and The decision is killing me, more on this later (it's 4:30 am...)

-I haven't gamed or animated in a long while. Senior year of school is taking it's toll. Lots of busy work, as well as WORK work consumes my every hours.

I'm feeling better than I have in a long while. This year I'm making an effort to improve my personality. One way that I'm doing this is to not trash talk peple whom I don't know. There are plenty of people on campus that are "different", and sometimes it's the strange ways they act or dress that makes me dislike them. There are two people in particular, Staley and Brittny (correct spelling) that I have grudged against for the last 2 years at school, only because of how they look. Well, I'm very happy to say that I've personally talked to both of them, and cleared my mind of this hate. I've actually become good friends with Brittny. I feel great, it's a new outlook on my every day social interactions.

-I installed Windows Vista RC2 on my PC (yes, it's legit.) Very impressive, while making me cringe in a few areas. If you'd like to know more about it, or ask questions, please do so.

-I pre-ordered a Wii. Can't decide which game to buy. Who would have ever thought that I would be getting one of these?

Those are the big ones. As I said, I'll fill in the details of the girl situation soon enough. Hope everyone is doing great, I'm so happy to be back.

Welcome Lynx! Good to hear from ya again, and I'm glad to see you pre-ordered the Wii.

I'm sorry, I must offer you my heartfelt apolagies, for i forgot everything you said as soon as you mentioned that you preordered a Wii. SCREW YOUR SOCIAL LIFE! WII IS ALL THAT CONSUMES MY ATTENTION!

Honestly, i'm glad to hear that you're getting along good and that you're feeling better. That personality change thing is very positive as well! It's always good to hear that kind of thing, when someone has changed for the better, it's very respectful.



...y'know, if you REALLY don't have that much time to spend on gaming, i COULD play the Wii for you .

The Wii... man, I can't wait. Sure you can play it for me Phil. No wait, you can't. I won't pay for gas, or the flight, but if you show up, then I may consider it.

Few weeks left and I still need to decide on which game to get.

Good to hear you've been busy.
I've disappeared... because of being busy. I've had extraciruccular (sp?) after school ever since last week and drivers ed two days a week, which made some of my days 7 AM - 930 PM. I've had this week off and next week -thankfully- but then I start behind the wheel and I work on some more things for drama (building and painting) for a couple of odd days throughout the month. Thus, I go from 7 AM - 930 PM again, starting November 13. And between this, I had this huge Spanish test in my class. Well, it doesn't sound difficult, but it really was: the class had to memorise 120 food names and I just caved: I was in DC and missed the Monday of last week, so I got the revelation and almost fell on the floor. Three days was adequate, though.
Anyways, without the babbling, I haven't picked up the Xbox or PS2 controller or even played the generic game of Sims 2 in forever. Meaning about a month or two. I just don't have time. The most fun thing I did start doing was reading Fruits Basket at my good friend's urging, which is pretty good. But I have a big book to read for school and I have to complete a story for my freewrite soon, too. So, that'll vaccum up more time.
Basically, I would've done a copycat post, but I am just too lazy when reciting events. Yeah, I'm back [in black].
And I'm still alive. :O
