I guess more details are coming next week, but it still seems suh-weeet.

Hey I know I basically don't count as a member anymore since I'm around as often as a deadbeat dad.... But I noticed there's a 64Digits Minecraft server! Tonight I can nostalgia while immersed in the nerdy heroin that is Minecraft.
Since the last time I claimed to be coming back soon, I got a GED, moved to Texas, and landed a job in IT here: http://www.supercircuits.com/
Anyways now that I have internets and two laptops at my disposal, and now that everyone else is on summer break, perhaps I will be active for the first time in like 4 years. I miss 64Digits.

I GREET THEEEEEEEE

So I'm going to be going to a series of concerts in Portland over the next couple of months, rad I know, things are going pretty alright. I'm seeing Dark Tranquillity with Threat Signal & Mutiny Within in 2 weeks, then Soilwork with Death Angel, Augury, Mutiny Within, and Swashbuckle in the summer, and finally Scar Symmetry with Epica and Mutiny Within in December.

No big deal.

I'm still caampaigning for the idea of me takin' the GED... Seems like a pretty okay idea to me, I think it would be rad if I got an early start on things since high school isn't taking me anywhere.... I'm surrounded by the biggest fucking idiots every goddamn day and I'm scared my extremely superb intellect will suffer for it

Anyways

I decided to sign up for Theatre 1 next year since I probably won't be getting my coveted GED.... hopefully that'll be neat.
Oh and I was drilling at the fire department the other night and we were practicing using wildland shelters (in case a fire shows up around you and you can't outrun it or something) and then we messed with these robot water guns mounted on the front of the engines before picking up some drunk slut and driving her around
So being a firefighter is awesome
I got a paycheck for like $8.25 from them like a month ago, hahaha

I have also been listening to a ridiculous amount of vikingly folk metal. It makes everything seem so much more heroic when you're playin' a game and you kill a guy and the music is like "TO VICTORYYYYYYYYYY"

So hey anyways party on you guys

What are the haps, my friends?

I recently attended a concert in portland. The bands were Kreator, Kataklysm, Evile, Lazarus AD, and Lightning Swords of Death. It was pretty excellent, I bought a shirt from Lightning Swords of Death and the lead singer spent like a longass time drawing this aweosme picture of a snake and an upside down cross
Right now I am waiting on the guy I took to the concert to show up here at my house so that we can work on a project for French. We have to make up a restaurant and design a menu for it with like a titsbunch of items. I wanted to call it Uncle Pierre's Classy Fancy Pants Dining Experience but I had waayy too much difficulty translating that motherfucker

Anyways

I've been kind of working on a platformer where you are a ghostly thing and you possess corpses and climb around on shit and throw knives. It's fairly rad but until I make some awesome graphics or find a capable fellow to make some with me, there is no way I am releasing a demo, haha.. No matter what I do with it, it seems lacking, anyway.

In other news, I am now a firefighter cadet and I am starting a melodicish death metal project operation, but things are also going kind of shittily. It's only been like 6 months since my last haircut, but I get annoying comments like every day about it. Whatever. Also I haven't had a girlfriend in like a year by now which is lameasaurus rex

I'm trying to save money to build a new computer (I need like $400 more) because the one I have now currently is lacking in internet access abilities, plus it's like five years old.

So hey dude, hey, if anyone wants to totally participate in the construction of this mediocre game, it could turn out being fairly rad. It's like a mix of free running and voodoo. Oh yeah but obviously my communication abilities will be limited until this hypothetical computer is mine

Fare thee well mes amies

So uhhhhh I'm thinking about getting a GED soon and going to a community college in Salem next year.
I've been talking to as many of my friends as possible about it in case it's a dumber idea than it seems. I'm pretty sure if I go to this community college and then go to some other 4-year college, no one's going to care what kind of high school education I got.

Anyways I hadn't been working with GM like at all until a couple weeks ago, when I started making this pretty neato topdown horror shooter zombie explode kill apocalypse game. It's a pretty big improvement from what I was doing when I was really active here, so maybe I'll post screenshots or a demo or something later.

What else? I'm getting a job pretty soon, and soon after that me and one of my pals are going to build ourselves some new computers. Then I might be able to be on here some more.
Also we'll be starting a death metal band wooooo it'll be pretty rad

EDIT:




Pretty much.
