Good Lord

Reading back through some of these posts is a little bit embarrasing. I've already deleted two that were filled with flirty relationship angst and although I am tempted to delete the others that fall into the same category, I realise that this will leave the blog pretty much empty. I dunno, what do you guys think?

All 2 of you.

So gosh! It's been an absolute while, what's been going on? Well quite a few things as it turns out, and also a whole bunch of nothing.

I am still to finish the course that I started around about the same time that this blog went up, which is super shameful (I know), but that is definately going to be out of the way by the end of this year because it's now getting in the way of my next news nugget. (Unrelated but arg! This laptop keyboard is so small and its really annoying when you go to press backspace and instead you press insert and its like fuuu-). The course has progressed resonably well this year I feel, I am now up to the point where I am writing a seemingly endless array of essays and actually doing stuff that is related to the design of games. I still have to do some concept artwork for a pitch document but its cool. I mean I will have to start up my old computer (barry) and get him to work properly, as my new computer (gwen) doesn't seem to like either my tablet or any of the software that went with it in order to make it function. And for some reason I can't find a tablet that works on Windows 7 for less than 100£. (Comment section if you can help me out on this, amazon preferred over ebay).

I dunno about the end of this though. Lots of people from this course seem to be doing well in internships but I am super not confident in my abilities at all. I think my attitude will change when I actually make a game or something game related, but finding the time to mod just isn't happening right now, and the project to make the game it'self is prolly going to be a solo deal and will totally eat my life. It'll be fun though. Hopefully people will enjoy playing it too.

Right next news nugget. I want to move to London.

I've always wanted to live in some sort of city but London seems to be calling me loudest. I have family there so I am totally aware of all the pitfalls and the fact that it is not the friendliest or most sociable of places, but you know. It's something that I really feel I want to do. I can't move till I finish this course, but yeah. As soon as I do, I am London bound.

So yeah... the rest of my afternoon is going to be spent drawing, and deciding whether or not to get rid of a few posts. Also hi if you're still reading this.
