Frogger!!

So, one thing they do at Video Games Live is invite 2 random people on stage to compete at a timed game of Frogger. a minute and a half to post the best score to win the top prize. I was miraculously selected to compete! The person who was chosen to compete against me tried to tear down several parts of the stage/lighting...and frightened one person enough that he bolted out of his seat! the guy, whom I have dubbed "flounder" was walking along a precarious ledge, started falling, so to save himself grabbed the BUNDLE OF WIRES LEADING TO THE LIGHTS hanging about 3 stories above the crowd. Then proceeded to hang of said bundle of lights for about 30 seconds. I thought people were going to die. Then flounder bulldozed his way onto stage jumping on top of speakers, getting tangled in more wires and lights, then almost taking out one of the projectors. I decided if I didn't beat this guy, I would hand in me Nerd card right there. This was our battle:

Video Games Live!

So Ken is awesome and took me to Video Games Live! It was fantastic! They played songs from everything, from Halo to WoW, to Castlevania! The Winnipeg Symphony was great at playing simple pieces like Mega Man, and making them even more epic or taking Final Fantasy and having it sound even better than the game versions! Here's a few pics of some goings on there!

More grades!

Well, I recently got more grades back. My first graphics communication drawing this semester worth 20% I got an A+ (don't know what the exact score is, Bob doesnt give that info...but A+ is in the 90% range) also got my first graphics communication test back, which I got a 67....out of 72, so 93% :-) Today got back my test for CATIA and I scored a 95% on that. so yeah, so far I'm doin really well. Although the next couple weeks there are more major assignments due and should be getting more marks in. Will let you know how I do!

first ethics test

just got my mark back for my first ethics test. Got an 88! so yea, pretty happy with that! Other than that...not much new as far as school stuff. Lots of studying and working on assignments, it's getting close to that 1/2 way mark so should be getting more marks in within the next few weeks. Will let you all know how it goes!

Good news everyone!

So, all those drawings I did for CATIA that I posted earlier, well, I finally got my mark back for the work I put into them. I got a 90%, so I am very happy with that! Also, on top of that, I got my mark back for my first statics test. I got a 95%! I knew I had done well, but I was still kind of second guessing myself afterwards. But I did it, and I couldn't be happier with my marks! so yea, things are going stellar so far!

something I did in my off-time...

well, been playin around with CATIA to see what I could do. So me, of course, being me...I made this...

my own take on a lightsaber hilt. Yeah, I know, get back to the school work! don't worry, I only worked on this when I had time!

More fun with Catia!

Well, just finished tidying up the rest of my Catia drawings and I figured I may as well show em off! so yeah, as you can see, some of the pictures I was showing off changing what materials they are made of.
