need coffee - puppy
He also likes to give a lot of kisses.
If you search pugsley on flickr, I have many pictures posted there.
Game Design 101 today is the beginning of our Final game project. It can be anything, I'm not sure if I want to create some elaborate board game, or a card game with custom cards, or both. Either way, I need to start brainstorming!
For Fund. of Design on Wed, I need to shade a circle into a sphere.
It is refreshing to do something semi normal in a drawing class, but I do enjoy creativity projects also.
I have decided to leave PetCo, I will be taking up seasonal employment at Best Buy. I am still looking, but hopefully I can get some freelance work to suppliment the money I am not making. Anyone want to buy my truck?
Wish I could come to the Halloween Party, I regret never physically hanging out with the estrip crowd.

a sudden, profound realization on art
My first assignment for Intro to Game design was to brainstorm 50 ideas for new hopscotch games, It was fun and rewarding at the same time. Afterwich I was required to complete a rule set for the game. i came up with things I never knew I could dream of!!!
And, as ab added bonus, the school has resources (physical people) that will send me freelance design and print jobs.!!
The only thing I wish that I would of received from Canisius while I was there was a few bad grades from some dfesign instructors or my intro teacher. We all need to be told about our creations' downfalls. It is a more enriching experience that way!

great look
I am currently doing some design homework, I need to define and illustrate theelements and principles of art. I am having trouble illustrating form and unity!Anyone have any suggestions???
I also have a hw assignment to create a work of art using only the most creativelines possible. My only solid idea is to put a line on the edge of the pper, thatis creative. Color and contrasting lines is only considered semi-creative. I likethe class, it makes me think in a different way! But I am always open tosuggestions, they always foster new ideas!

first day at AIP
I must say that this school is full of the most interesting looking, diversified students I have laid eyes on. My first class was GAD101. Basically, we are going to learn what constitutes a good game and how a game is created and the process from start to finish; including the roles each plays! All course materials are online, and the instructor has worked for EA on Battlefield and Rome. Super cool guy, he is only 1/2 year older than me.
I am blowing time, because I need to go to ENG101 at 6pm. For some reason, I have to take it again???

jobs jobs jobs and the electronic wall
It is a tiresom task. Most want ads don't want phone calls, so it is difficult to even follow up on your application.
I feel I can only send so many emails. I guess the whole idea is to save time for the recruiter. It saddens me to think about how difficult it is to network and meet people because of the electronic "wall" that has been created.
Have any of you (e:strip) peeps seen my resumé out "there?" I feel as though I have sent it to half the country. I will never abandon all hope, it just seems circular at times.
get paper...
circle ads...
send resumé...
follow up (maybe)....
get paper...

animalé
The Pittsburgh Zoo is larger than the Buffalo zoo, and it has more animals, but the variety of animals is the same. The Buffalo Zoo has probably a greater variety, because the PPG Zoo doesn't have a lot of smaller animals.
I took as many pictures as I could, but my camera battery died. Guess that is just an excuse to go back again soon!!
Does anyone have any pointers for taking pictures of monkeys behind glass??
You would think they would use an invisible forcefield instead. It is probably a lot more expensive though.
OK, here they are....
The elephant and the orangutan are my favorite shots.
Thanks for putting up with my amateur photos!

A mixed day!
First...the BAD...
Sadly, my G4 mac desktop died yesterday. It was old (400Mhz), but It was my first. All you mac users out there know what I am talking about. Luckily, It died after I finished backing up the hard drive. It was the hard drive that went. If I try to install Tiger, it doesn't see the drive as an available drive, and disc utility tells me there is a hardware error. I may fix it, or I just might let it go. It was my main internet and downloading /itunes computer. I'm not sure if I want bto use my pc for all that, seeing there are many virus and all...(what is the plural of virus???)
The good...
I am posting this from my new office! I am finally conected again.!!
Here is my new office.
I may get a harddrive and install linux on my older G4. Is there any issues with hardware I should know about? I will research that today.
