Bored
2001-12-13 13:41:38
Is anyone else bored at work today? I have 40 computers to ghost and get back out by the end of the day and I am already done with all of them. I love ghosting. Takes the monotony out of doing them one by one.
MAS PRODUCTIONS thats not a real contest. Or if it is, its to see who can create the worst video. I agree with Dreddnott on this one.
Anywho, it looks like I may be able to take alot of drawing classes this upcoming semester. Hopefully I will be able to start my intermediate classes in 3d design this summer. Maybe then I can leave and head off to film school. Or at least somewhere more interesting then Lubbock, Texas.
I think the reason I don't like it here is because I grew up overseas. Even though I was born in Lubbock and left when I was 3 and came back when I was 15 its still looks the same. Not to much changes. The nightlife is nonexistant. There is basically nothing to do here. And they complain about one of the highest teen pregnancy rates. Heh, I wonder why.
EK: I have some idea of what you mean about being in a slump. I have been in a 3d slump for about 4 months. I can't seem to come up with any ideas and I can't seem to put them together. It not because I don't know how its because my hands and brain aren't on the same page. If that makes any sense. It got so bad 2 days ago I dream about trying to recreate my home but I couldn't do it right. It was all messed up and nothing was straight or orderly. It probably means I had to much pizza before I went to bed.
I'm really liking the review swapping idea that was suggested in the web site forum. I hope something like that goes through.
Everyone keeps wanted to change the forum. Personally I like the forum how it is. Uncluttered, easy to read, easy to find things. Yeah sure there are a few things that are annoying about it but I enjoy surfing it more then most.
Guess I am done rambling for the day.

Banners
2001-12-12 22:10:03
I'm beginning to think that maybe the banners are causing a I.Q. drop in the new members here. Kinda like insects to the bug zapper. (For all of yall that are offended I'm just joking.) But every joke has some truth ;)
On the other hand I am going out of town this coming week for business.
My flights suck. I leave for Austin at 6:45 in the morning and then leave from Austin the same day for Dallas at 5:45PM. Never been to Austin so I will have to see what its like in the 6 hours I am able to do anything. Heard its pretty this time of year.
Got way to many clients to set up on or medical software in 3 days in Dallas. I have over 32 computers to reinstall Windows 2k on them along with a bunch of other software. And none of them are the same make/model so I can't ghost any of them. Man I guess I don't sleep for 72 hours
But hey the pays good. EK I was going through your drawings earlier today and I just wanted to say I am a real fan of your artwork. Man I wish I could draw. Besides doing effects on the computer that is.
D. Shimare I think you hit the nail on the head for Ani-punk. Even though I can't really talk because I have had only one gf in my life. Couple of dates here and there but nothing special. Probably just to scared to ask ;)
Alright I guess I am done for the night. Check yall later

Finals
2001-12-10 23:26:19
Well it appears that I have my 5th semester under my belt and I have a whole month to work without coming home to study.
I just finished adding another section to my website. Takes alot out of me everytime. Who ever says that Webpages aren't really any work needs to get a better webpage.
I am so stoked about the 18th. I can't wait until LOTR comes out. I keep watching the making and I get so excited every time I see it.
Yeah dreadnott you really should warn people about that. I was at work and my boss was in the same room and I had to explain a naked chick on my screen. Yeah that was alot of fun.
I finished dling the DDR project off of waldo's late last night. Watched it this morning. Man I wish I was good enough to contribute to something like that. It was very impressive. Maybe in a few years.
Still trying to find out what I really want to major in. I will probably pull out of school for a semester or so, so I don't waste any more money on courses I don't need to graduate.
Thinking about getting back into Tribes 2. When it first came out I played it for so long that it was taking over my life. Alot like AMV's. Funny how that works. Anyway I was thinking the other day that I missed the guys (and girls, for all you pc people) in my clan. Wonder how they are doing.
Man this Journal is kinda random. Oh well make more sense with my studio name. Seen some good vids lately. Can't remember what they are so I can't tell you. Just know they are good.
I was excited that Cowboys won this weekend. Stoked that my friend got to meet Michael Jordan in Dallas. When they played the Mavs.
Anyway if you wasted all that time reading this go to <plug>http://www.randomvariable.net and post in the FORUM, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING THAT IS HOLY, PLEASE</plug> Its hard to get a webpage started with quality traffic and not just people who come to see if you can give them webspace then never come back as long as you host there vids. Then when you cut them off because they are jerks they just post crap and send you hatemail. Oh well I guess it happens. Luckily I can delete posts about my mom. Those are always annoying.
Anyway, I hope everyone gets to dream about things you like to dream of.
Take it easy,

The Devil Women Took Jags Timespot
2001-12-04 20:55:41
Well Martha Stewart(The Devil) has some stupid special going on so I didn't get to see the newest JAG. Oh well I guess it will come out next week.
By the Lord Rai that is a really cool background.
My site recieved some more hits today so that is a plus. Just got done finishing some stupid ads for my boss. Thank God those are done. Its one less thing I have to waste time over.
Well my mom just called to tell me she has been nominated for one of the most Influencial or outstanding or something like that women in america award. Thts kind of cool to hear. Glad for her, she needs some encouragement like that.
Anyway still trying to design a studio symbol instead of just the name. I want to be able to sum it all up with one symbol. Taking some time.
Been talking to redplague about some ideas to bring more people to my webpage. We think we have come up with an idea that would bring everyone back week after week but who knows.
Anyway its really hard to concentrate considering I just took my medicine and that doesn't help to much. Anyway I guess I'll jet.
Till Later,
Adiamante

Linux
2001-12-03 09:10:56
Well I got my 120 gig hard drive today. at least its not 5400 rpm and it still almost has the same amount of space.
I finally got my linux to run on my old system. I'm trying to set up a webserver so that I can test some of my php and mysql coding. Hopefully I can finish up my webpage by christmas. If not I do have a couple of ideas that will allow me to get it up for the most part without all the cookies and everything.
By the way everyone go to www.randomvariable.net and tell me what you think of the layout.
Iserlohn, Yeah I've been having insomnia too this past week. I have maybe slept a total of 18 hours all week. And I was going to bed trying to sleep also.
I have a couple of ideas for vids but its going to be until christmas break after finals until they get done.
Treeprincess, your entry about feeling alone at college and watching depressing anime hit home one me. I listen to alot of mellow (sp?) music and everyonce in a while I find myself wallowing in self pity. So then I put in something uplifting and as old as it is (The Last Startfighter) and begin to feel better. But hey everyone has their own way of getting through things right?
Well I guess I'd better get back to the books, see if I can get this stupid test out of the way or tomorrow.
