Nov. 30th, 2006 03:53 pmOn page 260-something of Pillars of the World :) I was right about figuring out what was going on waaay ahead of time. Kind of sad that the majority of the Fae STILL don't know about it :P
Just wrote an email to the Asian Languages department to be sure I am on track for a minor in Japanese. If not, I can add any additional classes, but I think all 4 intensive classes were all that I needed to take :) (Otherwise known as the "are you an idiot? you could have taken some easier courses than all 4 intensive classes" track!)
I am in the mood to do a Flash animation over winter break. I'm not sure if it will actually happen - more likely is that I'll make my animation from art a year ago be less crappy :) My main goal for winter is to complete my new online portfolio (which will display a wide variety of my work - photos, photo manipulation, vector art, regular drawings, photoshopped colored/otherwise altered drawings, traditional animations, 3d animations, 3d models, graphic design, websites, etc).
I'm sure I will regret any decisions to work on my animation because Flash is a total pain in the ass at times... Most of the time. I was going to put my website portfolio on my UMass webspace, but since that will die 6 months after I graduate, I may as well put it on my permanent webspace at Valefor.
It's funny... some of my work, I'm not exactly proud of... but it has such a nostaglic feeling for me. Like the "10 Day HTML Diary" I made up. I used a Flash intro with some Javascript to make it into a sort of storybook. It was from the point of view of a character in a story that I had been writing with Erin and Steph, Mika'el. I just love the cute, dorky little story I wrote up about him, and all the silly drawings I did in 5 minutes because I was dying to finish the project ASAP.
Anyway time for class!
