Well, it's been quite a while since I updated this thing. I remember wanting to have an update every 1st of the month... so much for that!
I hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas. Family, friends and hot cider; definitely the best time of the year. I was unfortunate enough this year to miss my family Christmas party because of a Saturday afternoon Physics exam, so that was a pretty serious bummer. Christmas didn't feel quite complete without it. Ah well, we're having a follow-up party sometime in January, so at least I'll get to see everyone eventually!
As for gifts, I did pretty well, if I do say so myself. Got the Wii version of "Sonic Unleashed" (which actually isn't nearly as bad as I've been hearing), an iPod Nano engraved with my mock title ("The Miguel"), and a freakin' sweet 22" widescreen monitor. Now I can actually SEE WHAT I'M DOING when I'm working in Maya and Photoshop! It's a shame that my wimpy little laptop seems to have trouble handling it, though. Thankfully, I think I've just about got enough dough saved up to get myself a middle-to-high range desktop computer.
So, anyway, I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and that you have a Happy New Year!

LLAMAS and the G.R.E.
:llama: I wants a Llama badge. :<
Also, happy fun times await me, for the G.R.E. (Graduate Record Exam) is fast approaching, and I'm currently busy studying. If I pass, I will (probably) be accepted into graduate school! :D
If not... then I guess I'll have to try again later.
Wish me luck!
(AND GIVE ME LLAMAS LOL)
Edit: YAY LLAMA :D :D
Edit Again: BOOM. GRE is DONE. Didn't do too shabby, either. Now I just wait to see if it was good enough to get into grad school. :fingerscrossed:
Greetings from the Nether
Aah, I remember when I said I'd be updating my journal every month. What foolish folly that was.
Well, I got that new rig, and 'tis a beauty. It's what allowed me to create that CG Mewtwo to the left of this journal.
So far this summer, I've been trying to finish up some graphics for my independent study course, and it's taking just a leeeeetle longer than I expected. After that, I'm knuckling down to creating a piece for my CG portfolio.
Today is my little brother's birthday! He's turned 20, so that's awesome. He's also earned his Eagle rank in Boy Scouts, which means we're now two for two, since I got my Eagle a while ago. He's had
Older than I was last year
Well, today is the day my driving license expires! Oh, and it's also my birthday. ;)
So yeah. I renewed my license, replacing the horrible picture of me with an even WORSE one, and also registered to vote (finally). Pretty boring day so far. We're going out to eat later tonight, but that's about it - we went to see WALL-E for my little brother's birthday four days ago and no other movies out at the moment look like they're worth the price of the ticket.
Oh, speaking of which, it's plug time: if you haven't seen WALL-E, please do so at your earliest convenience. It's an excellent flick. Plenty of Pixar-goodness; amazing artistry, great
I'm Back... Sort of
Why hello there! It's been a while since I updated my journal... and now that I'm finally updating it, I don't have anything to update it with! Go figure, eh?
I've been extremely busy with my classes this semester, mostly the computer graphics courses, which require me to sketch and work in photoshop and all sorts of stuff like that. I may be posting some of that stuff at some point, but it's not all that great, really.
I CANNOT WAIT for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I am so stoked for that game. Sadly, I didn't pre-order it, so I'll probably have to wait a while before I can play it. Not that big a deal, really. I'll get my hands on a co
