spring break

During this spring break I will be on one of the best trips I have ever had. I will be traveling with the Booth Scholars Program to Italy and Greece. We are going to be traveling to all sorts of interesting spots in those countries. This is a ten day trip and is going to be awesome. The only bad thing about going on this trip is I will not be able to watch my Mountaineers pwn the Dookies and whoever the winner of Michigan State vs. Butler is. There is little doubt in my mind that whenever I return home I will be returning to West Virginia, home of the NATIONAL CHAMPS.

FAV Athlete

Today blog question is who is my favorite athlete. This is without a doubt the easiest question I have had to answer all year. My favorite athlete is without a doubt RANDY MOSS. I love Randy for many reasons and he has been my hero ever since he stepped in at Marshall. Randy has had to deal with more adversity than almost any other sports figure that I can think of, and he has not let it tear him down, instead it has built him into the model citizen that he is today. One quality that I love about Randy is that he will tell you exactly how he feels and not think twice about it. He is a classic rags to riches story from one of the poorest cities in America to a multi-millionaire, and he always is involved with charity and has given back to the schools that he attended when he was younger. Throughout most of his NFL career he was given a bad rep but he has worked hard to get rid of that image and the New England Patriots all love having him as there number 1 reciever slot. Randy is the MAN

hopes

By the end of this quarter I would like to have my game finished. We would probably already be finished by now, but have been slowed by our problems with flash. Our levels a fully completed as of now and we are on the stage of coding, which has become a large problem for our group. Hopefully we will have some breakthroughs with our flash and complete our game in the near future. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Other teams

If I had to pick another team's game that I really like I would have to choose the game being made by the team Oily Bacon Fat. There game is titled "Going Green" and it feature Al Gore. The object of this game is to destroy the gas guzzling cars by jumping on top of them. I like the overall message of this game and the gameplay is one of the best in the class as of right now, so that is why I chose them.

this class

There are many good and bad things about the class game design. Some of the good things about it are getting to work in flash and working with a partner to finish projects. One of the main things that I don't like about this class is the actionscripts in flash. There should definitely be a class on actionscripts before game design because it is very confusing once you get to game design trying to work with them when you have no background on them.

progress

Our game is making very fast progress right now. We have successfully programed our gorilla to move across the screen and we are now working on the actions of the enemies in the game. Our game will still take a good deal of time to finish, but with the progress that we are making right now it will fly by. There is no doubt in my mind that our game will pwn our arch enemy's game which was poorly title " Going Gore" it is pretty pathetic compared to the detail that has gone into our game.

internet

There is not denying that the Internet has made great contributions to our society, but in my opinion it has made America, in general, lazier. Before the internet people had to spend hours going to libraries researching information about a topic, not it takes a couple of clicks of the mouse and you have an endless supply of knowledge on a topic. The internet has made pretty much everything easier for our society, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does take away from our work ethic.

Movie

If there was one movie that described my life thus far it would have to be Napoleon Dynamite. In the movie Napoleon Dynamite he has to put up with his family, which I have to do. He also has a great passion for Ligers, as do I. He is an amazing dancer when he performed at his school talent show, I also have been known to bust a move every once in a while. Napoleon Dynamite is the man.

SVHS

Today's question is about whether or not I would send my child to Spring Valley High School. I think I would feel comfortable sending my child to Spring Valley for an education. I like the overall environment that Spring Valley provides and I think, for the most part, that the general student population is a nice one. This would all depend on me having a good job in this area and a nice house.
