Contetxtual Nightmares

I don't know about others, but my experience with nightmares and dreams in general is that unless they're strong enough to wake me up I usually don't remember them. Last night I was having a rough time dealing with D.O.M.S. (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness, means I worked out. yay for me) and had gotten my score back from my latest math test, and just barely finished some homework in time for personal finance today. After about an hour of rest I woke up in a puddle of sweat on my pillow cursing that if I didn't figure out this equation by morning I would lose $8,000.00 on my investment. That was the nightmare.
      Thankfully after about 5 minutes of me struggling with whether or not to write out the problem on the bedroom wall, I realized what was happening, got up and found some Advil and was soon able to return to sleep and have a regular old nightmare about my new film teacher giving the class a lesson on the horror genre by taking us to a cabin in the woods and killing us one by one using different means. Before I woke up I remember asking him as he was about to hammer a nail into a lady's head, "what are you doing?" and his response was "This is an object lesson. Like if I was going to teach you how to play darts... except I'm throwing them at you."
     I tried to cut off his arms with an ax meant for me... it wasn't as easy as that cow in mexico.

Moving to Google+ feels like moving to Europe

I joined Google + as soon as it opened up to the public. I had seen videos and read a few articles about it and I remember thinking that it sounded like a much better version of Facebook, which in turn had been considered a much better version of MySpace. I liked the simplicity of choosing who you share with, among other features, and though I realize that Facebook utilizes a lot of the same features now; it seems like Google has made those features easier to find and more attractive. I assumed that most of my friends who were just as interested in switching from an iphone to android would feel the same way about switching over from Facebook to G+. But of the 70+ friends and family that I had listed on my old facebook page only half of them have joined Google +.  thankfully I've been able to participate in discussions with new and interesting people that are for the most part polite and well spoken. Thus the moving to Europe analogy; I'm excited to be a part of this new community that has been very friendly and welcoming, and the features of my new home are intuitive and exciting and much better looking than where I came from. I just kinda miss my family that refuses to switch over due to fear of change or laziness. (it doesn't cost nearly as much to switch from FB to G+ as it does to move from America to Europe obviously.)

the 21st of September

still haven't done anything too interesting since last time I wrote. I've become more of a consumer than a composer. Which is really too bad, but I don't have the skills or the patience to fully create something cool.. except this I guess...

I wrote the script for this. I thought it was pretty funny.

And this self Portrait. I thought I made a pretty cool face..

here's a drawing of my class mate, I think it went really well for being my first one.

I dunno... they seem pretty cool. except the video that wouldn't export to 720p on my computer when it would on my professors. I'll figure that out next week. none of these are the projects that I really want to be working on though. I keep looking at Captain's Quarters who is a guy I know and used to hangout with. I keep thinking that he's doing what he wants to be doing. But then again, maybe not. He never really seemed like the kinda guy that would want to make a preschool kids cartoon.

Well anyways, I still have to write a total of 9-15 pages before Monday for English. The time I spend in my classes feels like it's going so fast and yet the time I'm spending before I can get into the stuff I really want to learn (video game design) feels like it's taking forever! I just can't be pleased I guess.

Intro

  It's taken almost two years for anything to be written on this blog since it's creation. I've gotten married since then. Today I got an acceptance letter to a local community college I will be attending in the fall. It'll be the first time I attend College without also having a full time job. and since it's in a field I am interested in I'm more or less certain I'll succeed in my classes. It's 11:18 at night and though I am very sleepy I thought I should one last semi productive thing before going to bed.
  Years ago when Myspace was the only popular social networking site I ran a profile with a fairly decorated blog. It had an occasionally changing background and at one point I figured out how to embed music into the HTML coding on the page. I can't remember now what it was that helped make my writings interesting at least to a few of my friends and family members. But I do remember that I was a high school student and pretty full of myself. I hope that this blog is interesting to a least a few people for different reasons.
  I suppose I'll stop here for the night. but I'll answer the randomly generated question before I log off. to drain the water out of my ear I tilt it to the side for a long time till I get too frustrated and give up. At one point it'll just leak out anyway.
