I'm back, but didn't really go any where! :D

I haven't really done an update to anything in a while, so I finally decided to do one.

Life

Starting with my life, since it is the most important thing to me, and without it I wouldn't be alive.

My Education

Currently I'm in my finally year of TAFE (Tertiary education) doing a bridging course in Information Technology which is a full time commitment at the moment, and I need to pass to get in to university next year (2013) so I can get a Bachelor degree in Information Technology, I'm basically going mad applying for courses at every institute that offers it.

I haven't yet picked any particular path, whether I want to be a programmer for a living, or a web designer, or just a simple SysOps, a degree should hopefully keep my options open. :D

Project

As part of my course, we were each required to complete a real world project with a partner from our class.
Here is a brief conversation I had with him over the internet; you can tell we take our work seriously. :P

Car

I recently survived my first car accident; I was at a toll gate, and the girl behind me didn't stop.
I'm ok, and my car is still drivable despite the huge scratch up the front where it hit the gate, lucky my car sits so low, I was simply pushed under the gate. :S

Procrastination

I do this a lot, that's why it's taken me so long to write this, it's also why I should be doing my homework right now. :S

Internet random

Here's a screen shot of a comment thread I started on YouTube.
This was very random.

(Caution: there is profanity in this image, just don't want to offend anyone. :3)

Photoshopping

Got in to photoshopping images a couple of months ago, here is some of the work that I've been doing.

My life in the fallout universe

My productive afternoon

Flying Turtles FTW!
RRRROOOOOWWWWW... PEW PEW PEW, BOOM!
Edit: I would have preferred to use a different type of aeroplane, but this was all I could find. :(

Photography

Another one of my recent hobbies I've taken up is photography,

I seem to be getting better at it, the more I play around with it.
Here is a technique I tried called the tilt shift effect

It's basically meant to make everything look small scale, or even miniature.

Gaming life

I don't really have a gaming life these days; I played Minecraft about six months ago, and built a castle.

My Game project

So if you follow my profile, you'll be aware that I'm unofficially working on a first person shooter title, inspired by the 1997 classic Blood.
There is currently a lot of work being done behind the scenes on it, to bring the game up to date with modern hardware.
I'm still in the process of writing an official design document for the project, and I have also constructed a website for it: Relic Of Sin Official Website (although it's not finished yet!) as I said before even the website was inspired by bloods official website: Blood.lith.com
Side note: none of the links on my site work or actually go any where. (yet!) :D

And that was Septembers update. :3

Work placement. :O

Another thing I forgot to mention I start a 10 week work placement soon, as part of my course for TAFE, so I might not be as active as I normally am. :)
