Studio Project and the lonesome…

Thursday, August 17th, 2006

4 days into studio project 3 and I must say that this time round, games got the cherry on the cake. For now at least, I think… All we gotta do is come up with the art assets for our own game, and pass it over to the programmers to program. While they do that, we’ll just sit there waiting for troubleshooting and coming up with our product design and demo reel. Sweet. Only part I can’t take though is the need to sit 9hrs in front of the com daily. Just realised that some of my friends have already graduated from uni… it’s been awhile since I’ve talked to someone around my age.. I’ve always had to adapt to other people’s frequencies. I don’t mind, I’m quite adept at that. However, sometimes you just need to sit back and fuck around with people who have been through the life you have led so far. Navy days. Sun, sea, a tent, a group of friends, lotsa food and drinks, and no worries about tomorrow’s world. Just the here and now. If only we could live life by the day. That would be good…

2 day interlude.

As you can roughly summise from the entry title, I’m taking a brief 2 day holiday from work… cleared all my modules last friday. Had a meeting from 12 to 3, then class and work rush from 3 to 10 on thurs. Went home and I was feeling the heat from the datelines… so decided to rush again from 11pm to 5.45am friday morn. Overslept till 8am and rushed to school for work again from 9am to 10.30pm friday night. Do the math. 12+ hours in the mac lab doing 3d animation. F.U.C.K. One good news at least… I’m supposed to take my reservist IPPT by the end of this month, but the dateline has been mysteriously pushed back a year.. well, hooray for me.

Isolationary prison.

Hopefully the fonts turn out big enough this time. Just realised that all my previous posts are typed out in very small fonts. My apologies. It’s 2348 hrs now… fucking tired after rushing assigments for almost the entire weekend. The only time I did get a break was on friday when I watched fast furious tokyo drift. Not bad, not bad. It’s too early to sleep and I’ll be fucked if I carry on further with any assignments. All of the games in my comp are old and my younger bro’s on the ps2 downstairs, so watching tv is out for now. Self-imposed solitary confinement in my room…

I’m back..

Due to incesscent queries of why I haven’t updated any of my blogs for such a long time, I have decided to take another shot at blogging… for now. I’m not gonna shy away from the facts. I’m a lazy bastard. Ok, maybe not a bastard, but lazy nonetheless.

Oooook. Since my last entry, the earth has turned many circles until a year has past. I’ve gone into the Games Development specialization, for those who don’t know. The downside of this specialization is that there are too many guys. Not good for me AND workload is staggering now. Studio project started 3 weeks earlier than the rest of DMD plus the rest of my assignments, except drawing, which I got a C anyway. Fuck. Late nights, fat belly, pale skin, fucked life… PLUS, reservist IPPT at the end of the month. What more could I ask for?

When this is all over I’m gonna take my dad’s 407 and drive around screaming. I’m gonna club, dance like a robot and drink like a fucking fish. Fuck off at the end of the day and sleep til afternoon. Sweet poetry… Oh! missed out something. I’ve gotta go to geylang man.. serious.

For the food. What were you thinking?
