game progress

Last week our team discovered something that will slow down progress for a while. During our coding we discovered that we need to make the background on our game much larger. So as of now we are working on our backgrounds before we can begin coding again. We did discover what was making our character's movements laggy and have fixed that problem. Our team is working harder than ever and we should be finished on time.

Prophecy

Recently a Muslim prophet said that the reason all of the earthquakes have been happening is because of women wearing scantily clad clothing. If they truly believe this, I will have to respectfully disagree. I do not think that God would choose to kill all kinds of people because of the fashion choices of women all around the world. Perhaps this prophet was on something during the time of this interview.

Progress on Game

Right now in our game progress we have completed all of the visuals for our game. We are still working on the coding and are having some problems with it. This week we hope to have our enemies functioning fully and ready to go. Our game is platform game and we hope that it will run something like the Super Mario Bros. games. The actionscript problems have hindered our progress, but we are pushing through.

If I were a God

If I were a God I wouldn't change too too much in the world. I guess if I had the power to I would move all of the hardcore criminals to mars and leave all the productive members of society to further the world. I wouldn't force anyone to do something they didn't want to because people still need their free will. In the end I would probably realize that I am not fit to be God like Jim Carey in Bruce Almighty.

plans for spring break

During spring break I will be traveling to Italy and Greece with the Marshall University Booth Scholars program. We start out in Florence, Italy and travel south throughout Italy and Greece. This will be an awesome trip and will be something to remember for a lifetime. Along with the Spring Valley Booth Scholars I will be going with Scholars from Wayne and Tolsia as well. I'm sure we will have a great time and be exposed to many new and interesting things.

Super power

Today's blog question is about which super power I would choose if given the opportunity to choose one. This has been a question that I have thought about many times. If i had the opportunity to choose a super power I would for sure choose the ability to teleport. Teleportation would be the greatest power for many reasons. First off I would begin my own company that would replace airlines because I could get people places in the blink of an eye and quickly become the richest person in the world. Also I could travel anywhere and that would be a great perk because you could spend parts of your day wherever you choose. Imagine waking up and going on a jog on the beach in Florida, stop by for lunch at you favorite Italian pizzeria, and party all night in Vegas. This would be the coolest life ever.

Spring Break

This spring break was probably the best that I have ever had. I went with the Marshall University Booth Scholars program to tour Italy and Greece. This trip was definitely a once in a lifetime experience and I will never forget a moment of it. I made many good friends and got closer to others. My favorite place we visited was probably the Sistine Chapel, which was painted by Michael Angelo. The Paintings in this chapel we breathtaking and it was amazing. I also got to see the Pope in Easter Sunday which was amazing as well.
