School's Up!

The Art of Life

Life is like a work of art. There are various components and a certain selection of styles that make up life. In the process of sketching, there will be slight to major mistakes, but they can be cleaned up and redrawn all the same. Life is critiqued by numerous opinions and theories. Every experience of life is different, hence the diversity between the lives of many. The work of art is only finished till the end of life. Sometimes, after we have passed, the next generation may be inspired by the art of life you have painted.

Life is an art that one should appreciate and hold dear to. An art that pleases or displeases. Life is never wrong. That is an opinion. You paint your life. It is yours to take pride in.

Alright I stopped there cuz I think I should probably reconstruct it into a poem. It's a bit messy here.

Never been good with literature XD

I've been back in school since Monday! And so far its going swell. Getting to know the gamers around me, having assignments which can be quite easy at first, and brainstorming for ideas!

I'm pretty awesome at that :D I know I know! Self praise! It's called pride!

So nothing much D-L......... OH! I really don't know if I should do it for a 3rd year final project... Because I don't think it would be too good to do it with my lack of experience. It could be better if it comes to terms with a game company- but my lecturer says that it would be a whole lot harder to get your own game published. It's all about the F'in moneh!

BTW, D-L is a hack n' slash sort of game. An RPG.. yeah? Think Ninja Gaiden.

Yeah that's pretty much it! Well, gotta brainstorm on a new game idea as a flash game, and also one for a board game! YAY!

But I needa go sleepy sleepy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Tetris Tranced and curse of the Mirror's Edge

Hello!

Just a random post on my life so far (it is a blog after all), not anything too important.

OH! I've finished my Light Prototypes already and have gotten some interesting replies from Nigel. I shall seek to improve it- But now, I have 1 week left to enjoy my holiday! (Less than that man) Yeah technically less, but hey! Distress!

BTW. Light Prototypes here

Recently, I've been going nuts over old game songs like Mortal Kombat theme and Tetris theme. I am really just running out of songs here (Please don't stop the music!) After I was done with Light Prototypes, I came back to my xbox 360 and played Halo 3 ODST. I played and played until I got bored! (WTF man! It was just a few weeks!) Well... Cuz I was lookin for a boring game!

Then I recalled Mirror's Edge. I wept for my scratched Mirror's Edge disc and helplessly slot it into my xbox to try but to no avail (yah pussy!) No I definetely didn't cry, but I do miss it.

Anyway! Bet you're bored listening to me.

Here's a small Mirror's Edge fan art for ya'll who love it!

I don't think I'll do a war psychology- I want a rest from that for a while. But I'm taking my time to continue with D-L! I think I may exceed 20 chapters! Not 30 though. Now I have to change character traits and their powers, as well as adding more characters in.

BTW. There's another girl in D-L who has the hots for Dark. So I have to get Light up to pace- or else you'll be seeing more of that in D-L2

Well gotta go now. OH! Before I go, here are some funny ass vids to have a look at.

New Anime and my problems with anime

Hello!

I have nearly 1 week left of my holiday left so I've been taking it easy with a new anime. This new anime was introduced to me by a friend... and says it was nominated the best anime series of 2007 (It was 2007 was it?) Guess so. After finishing the anime Blood + I was feeling bored until I recalled that anime. The name was simple enough for me to remember and youtube's autosearch helped me. The name of the anime is "Code Geass" (heh! funneh name!)

It seemed like a typical anime (With the girls and Gundam). But it proved to yield a powerful philiosphy on war, and that is what caught my attention (and the fact that there were scenes where the girls exposed their assets) Hey! They were blurred anyway! (Still got the hots for them though) -_-

Well its an anime not to miss if you like mind blowing psychology! (and anime girls) I had a difficult time understanding it. And really, I just HAVE to write a psych for it! That will be coming soon.

Heh! Wanna listen to my testimony on my past with anime? If not then here is the link to the Code Geass episodes (enjoy!)


Well here's my testimony anyway. As a kid, Kids Central is the TV channel I usually watch. I can remember one of the few animes were Doreamon (however u spell it), Pokemon, Digimon (mon-mon-mon-mon) and Zoids. Well there were a couple of them whose names I forgot. So I happily watched them... Then I come to realise that they were pretty lame, too cute for my liking (he had a bad childhood), or just... bullshit (anime shit!) Yeah! So I left it until now.
My liking for anime was restored when I saw Final Fantasy 7. That was during secondary 4 when I watched the animated movie. I was laughing at the big ass buster sword and gay Sephiroth (he uses sunsilk for his white shining, five foor long hair). It was slightly lame, I had to say. But I totally could NOT understand the storyline at all. Then I remembered the name Final Fantasy (I remembered it as some lame RPG game) I recalled watching a funny ass rant of FF8 on the internet. But that'll be another time.
So I went to youtube and watched the walkthrough (which was 50 episodes of 30 mins gameplay!) Yeah! Hell! I wasted so much of my time on that (youtube: the ultimate time waster) But I had to say that for a game in its time, it was a pretty great game. And I learned that characters played a major factor in stories. I was writing D-L at that time so I considered my characters (they had not much diversity) so I had to make them unique! (Iconic!) Characters are what makes stories lovable! (like Pikachu!) Screw that yellow bitch! Like Cloud! Wierd name but his hair and buster sword was an icon. (Hence! character Designing!)
So FF7 turned out, in my opinion, the best FF installment so far.
Moving on to now. I saw my friends watching a movie called "Blood: The Last Vampire" I was like 'Oh boy... Vampires again!' So there was this school girl killing demons with a katana... right... Then they were watching Blood +. When I saw all that blood, it caught my attention (Gears Of War did that to his mind) So I decided to check it out during the holidays becauseI was so friggin bored. I was transfixed on my laptop screen watching it for a week! I finished an anime series in a week! So I had to say I liked that anime.
Then back to the top of this post! I felt the need of another anime so I watched it! For 2 weeks, I watched "Code Geass". And I had to say I've never imagined an anime to be that developed in philosophy! So I'm a Halo fan watching a few suitable animes for me (that doesn't mean Naruto) That one'll give me chronic diahorrea.
So now I'm off to create my own character! I'm touching up on Light (sexual harassment!) Not that! Uh... so ... touching up on Light before I colour and shade her. I won't say she would be the final product- that's just the prototype. So I need original ideas to create an iconic character in appearance! Oh! And I've been writing D-L again.
D-L: 210 pages, 15 chapters, 66,000+ words
See yah! Oh! And wait for my other war psychology based on that of Code Geass! It will be opposing my ideal also!
