School again (bong)
Well, it's been 2 months again and I've managed to ignore the blog that long. It's not like I got too busy to do it I just neglected it (like many things in my life).
I managed to stay unemployed the rest of the summer (and still am). I've looked into being a tutor again--now they need professor recommendations in order for you to get the job. I haven't finished pursuing that.
I did get to know my friend Cami better over the summer. I helped her move twice (and a few other folks as well). Once to a temporary place and once to a permanent place. During the second move I discovered she had the old board game Hero Quest. I about told her I loved her, but I didn't. I've been dying to play that for a long time and was going to get a copy (off ebay) for myself (and the expansions eventually).
The first week of school started again. I'm taking 6 hours of English (intro to fiction and Shakespeare for non majors). The english is so I can apply to the MA in Creative Writing program. Just to keep my options open I will be applying as a new undergrad for the Spring as a English major (becuase I don't know what else I can do) and I will be eventually working toward the teacher licensing program. For that I have to have 25 hours of working with kids and take a subject test. There is no computer science one even though there ought to be so since I have a minor in math I'm shooting for that even though english isn't out of the question either (yes I know I've been ignore capitalization and whatnot, but it's early). I was looking through my calculus book again and realized I've forgotten most of what I leared. :( I will be working with a computer club where I will be teaching the kids to make games and simulations with AgentSheets agentsheets.com I used it for a class last spring. Doing this will get my my 25 hours and be a litmus test as to whether I wish to continue pursuing teaching because I'm really begining to enjoy this english stuff.
I will be getting a tablet/laptop hybrid as a educational expense and the one I'm buying the auction ends in about 10 minutes (so good luck to me). I want this model, the Toshiba R15-S822.
I've been editing this since the auction ended and I won ($1075+ S&H).
I'm still working on the Fluxx clone (see my last entry) and have started writing code after finishing some basic artwork. I am reviving a word game that I invented a few years ago to make it into a commercial product. I think there is potential for it but I won't give any of my secrets away here. :) It's a hard game of spelling a patterns. I'll be sharing it at the Game Club meeting this Tuesday to firm it up some more.
For anyone that actually reads my blog here is something to see if you're awake (becuase I'm not here at 7 am). I can't have any romantic relationships at this time. I'm not comfortable to elaborate in such a public setting at this time.
I'll try to keep you more informed (btw, I haven't heard back from the patent office since the last post).
