2- For each of those 15 people I will put their avatar and three deviations I like from their gallery on the list.

I ordered a Wacom tablet

Wednesday evening I ordered a Wacom 6x9 Bamboo tablet and Friday morning it arrived!

I've been using it since then and though I'm a little rough on it I am having a blast. There's a pretty steep learning curve at using a tablet but I'm getting more and more used to it as I use ArtRage for some random sketches

I've wanted a tablet ever since I was a teenager and now that I have one I couldn't be any more ecstatic. The only flaw is that it could be too distracting and I might forget to do my assignment due this week for programing

Uni update

I recently uploaded my deviations that were assignments for my Electronic Imaging and Design class. I'm quite happy with the results and I'm sure I'll be marked well on it. The upcoming assignment has me on edge though as we have to create a photographic essay and I have virtually no photographic experience

Though the final part of the photographic essay requires us to make a gallery in Flash and I'll probably ace that portion the photographic aspect still worries me somewhat

Sports

Celtics up 2-1 on the baby Bulls.

I'm literally watching the yankees beating the Sox for their first encounter of the year

//EDIT Red Sox rally, Red Sox wins!!!

But enough about me, how are you

Happy Easter

Its been a while since I last updated my journal for dA (since Baseball season ended actually lol) and now I'm updating it for you all

First off, Happy Easter. Whether you celebrated Easter during the Orthodox weekend or this weekend or don't celebrate Easter at all and just celebrating the break I hope you have a great few days.

Now unfortunately the last few months, particularly during the holidays from uni, I haven't been as frequent to dA as much as I'd like. But since March I've submitted two deviations which are Political AIDS poster and Website Design.

I have a few more assignments due for uni including a a re-vamp of my GUI which would have to do with my theme for my political poster and my self-portrait of a machine which hopefully would look awesome. I've been planning some animations too but I'll work on those puppies after I'm done for the semester hopefully

Baseball season has started
The Red Sox started great this year with Beckett looking like the best pitcher on the planet but subsequent games by Lester and Dice-K weren't as impressive. But hey, at least the Yankees are having a terrible start .

For my design class I had to make a design blog which I regularly update but I've been lagging behind lately so I guess I better update it soon

Ugh I have this class called Web3D, which is based off x3D which is the successor to VRML, and I struggled to complete my assignment for it. We had to create a 3D Rubik's Twist (Snake) and animate it with its solutions amongst other things.

This was a difficult assignment because a) We have little knowledge of the language in our first 4 weeks of class in which we essentially learned nothing, b)Its more of a logic assignment rather than testing our Web3D knowledge and c) the submission process HAD to be done with the Universities UNIX turnin method rather than the easier and clearly superior alternative which every other course with the exception of ironically the IT courses at RMIT which is online submission from home via a system known as Blackboard.

But no, I had to go all the way to uni, arrange a folder on an OS I'm not so fluent in and submit it using odd commands due to me being 3 hours late

Well that's good enough for an update, have a great day

Uni semester over

Greeting peeps . I have finally finished uni this year so until exams this November I'll have time off till next March which means I'll be looking to churn some stuff for you peeps.

ALCS

Well after my beloved Red Sox went down 3-1 to the Rays after woeful performances by Beckett and Lester in games 3 and 4 my Sox were able to crawl to victory in a game 5 rally and game 6 awesome outing by Beckett + bullpen.

So earlier I was really hyped for the Game 7 clash between the Sox and Rays pitting "Lights Out" Lester against against Garza so I was optimistic. The game was fantastic, BoSox got an early lead before the rays were able to capitalize of a shaky 4th and 5th inning by Lester.

So the Red Sox are down 3-1 and failed to score in the Eight inning stranding 3 men on base and infuriating me. So its suddenly the Top of the 9th when inexplicably THE POWER SHUT OFF!

Needless to say I went spastic, called the electric company and found out the power wouldn't be back so I went to sleep and punched the wall.

The Rays won in the end and good for them. The Sox shoulda won Game 3 and payed with their lackluster hitting. I'm not gonna blame Josh Almighty, he's hurt. Lester was awesome and we exhausted him and Dice-K delivered. All 4 aces were just that: Aces but the cards were overplayed.

I mean we can't have Papelbon pitch EVERY pitch....

_{God we missed Manny...}
