*Sigh* I miss all you guys. Anyway I now have some direction on my ball bearing project. Final mock ups are due next Monday and the final complete version week after next Monday. I think my instructors gave the class this project to fuck with our heads and to learn something about making mock ups and sketch in 3D. Yep, that's right, sketch in 3D and I'm not talking computer 3D but making stuff in 3D. Real 3D. I could've stuck with and took graphic design but I had to go for industrial design. Graphic designers only have to deal with 2D stuff but industrial designers get an extra dimension to play with. Hmmmm...I wonder what they would call designers who have to deal with 4D? Maybe quantum designers? (I bet I'm gonna get so much e-mail for that comment from Trekkies.) Originally I took industrial design so I can learn to render and draw well with markers and pens and nail down perspective aside from seeking redemption from Cogswell. Oh, by the way, if you excuse me for a second.....
FUCK COGSWELL!
Ah, much better. But then I got more than what I expected and now I'm making stuff. Making tangible stuff that I can hold. Feels pretty good though. I'm also nailing down perspective a lot so I guess I'm getting what I wanted as well. I feel bad a bit for not seeing or hanging out with my buds. I also had to cut work hours which is good cause now my soul doesn't get eaten too much. I feel that everyday I go to work, part of my soul gets devoured leaving me to become a souless lump of protien walking on this earth. This ID stuff has me pretty busy. But I guess I'm loving it. Of course there are points when I do feel insecure and feel like that I should be doing something else or that I'm missing out on something. But I figure I have about 60 to 70 more years on this planet. If I didn't fuck myself over and went to Cogswell and do all the stuff that made me into a person I hated I'd probably be in a better situation. One more time....
FUCK COGSWELL!!!
Ah, so much hate. I still haven't found hosting yet though I think I'm just gonna go with Yahoo unless someone out there thinks that it's a bad idea and think I should find hosting elsewhere. I haven't thought of a URL name yet either. Maybe www.nekoball.com but I think that's taken. Or www. nekosphere.com or www.nekopyramid.com or www.nekocylinder.com or www.nekocube.com. After all in ID we do draw a lotta primitives. I was thinking maybe I could try get into the cosplay circuit not as a cosplayer but as a prop maker. I've learned a lot on how to use foam and shape it into many things. I think maybe if I do find time and resources that I'll open a side job and do commissions for cosplay props like swords or guns and maybe even armor. It'll be a nice way to brush up my skills. Meh, I'll see. Anyway, here's a shout out to my neko homies in the land of the big flat. And one last time for the heck of it....
FUCK COGSWELL!!!!
