Woo, another philosophy paper, English paper, physics test, and UMTYMP test. If I had a debate tournament this week I probably would have died.
Blargh. A Realm Divided is actually going somewhere, albeit slowly due to my math and stuff.
I got five new CDs today. :D So much listening to do.

Wow, very beautiful. The traditional techniques blend very well with photoshop, looks very good. The landscape loses a little depth because the colors get too saturated, and the water is a little problematic. But this is a very good piece.
I went 4-2 at debate; the two people I lost to placed in the top 5, so I'm feeling pretty good about my performance. I'm starting to get a hang of this whole thing, and my speaking is definately improving. Some people had the dumbest arguments ever:
"Poor people don't deserve healthcare, because they can't afford it."
"What if there was a god that could heal you by channeling his powers? Here's the shocker there is!" Goes on to describe scienetology
In other news, I've got a lot of homework. Who would have known.
As of now I can implement a very rudimentary tile engine for A Realm Divided, so that is good. Maybe I will actually have something for everyone else to do, namely make tiles, bcause so far this has felt like a big lonely solo project of mine. I guess that might have to do with the fact that I've been a control freak about it, but whatever.

Creepy picture, actually extremely creepy.
Well, there is a lot of stuff going on.
I went to my first debate tournament on Saturday. I was 2-2, should have been 3-1 but the judge messed up. But then it is considered rude to complain about the judging, so I'll shut up now.
I've got a 28 on my most recent UMTYMP homework, and I've got a test on Wednesday.
I've been really busy with all my ohs courses, sigh. I barely finished my philosophy assignment.
And I guess there won't be a math team this year. *weeps* Because apperantly math *isn't* a useful skill that will land you a job, so of course there is no point in learning it right. I wish blogger had emoticons, because right now would be great for an eye roll.
I guess the only thing that is going well is Realm Divided, because I finally figured out Allegro.

I apologize if this is a repost. Cool moody environment scene. In fact I'm feeling sort of in this mood right now.
Okay so here is the lowdown
UMTYPM: 25 and 28
History: Quiz due
Philosophy: Is a cracked up class, and I have a 4 page essay due.
Writing: Some girl plagiarized my paper, and mine looks worse. wtf
Physics: Is okay I guess
Programming: I'm stuck
Anyways, last night my sister wouldn't go to sleep. A problem since we share a room. Sleep depravation, bad UMTYMP scores, recovering from a cold, and a cloudy day combined makes for one of those days.
But on a lighter note, there will be a party on Friday! It's sort of like a homeschoolers homecoming. Except we don't get dates or a dance. Well, maybe some people get dates... Anyhow, that should be pretty fun.
I've figured out how to implement a line-of-sight algorithm for a Realm Divided that takes into account my 3d terrain. Now I just have to implement it.
My sister is going around wearing a plastic bag; weird.
I was going to write more but now I forgot. Oh, right I'm having one of my best NetHack games ever; it looks like another ascension for me.

You may have seen this again, but it's from the great game Killzone for the PS2. I was just recently kicking butt in that game.
Anyhow my life just got about 1000x more complex. My desktop (I'm using the laptop right now) gives me the infamous 'Blue screen of Death' native only to Microsoft computers when it starts up. That computer happened to have eveything I need to attend my virtual highschool, which means right now I'm screwed. I've already missed an entire day of class. UMTYMP lecture was poor again, I got 24/30 on my homework the lost points were all due my forgeting the constant of integration. *Smack* However my average is still 26.5 which is above my goal of 26 for the school year. I think there will be good attendance for the party on Friday, I hoping this will become weekly, because I haven't seen anyone in quite a while.
Wow quite a mouthfull. It's likely I'll have to buy a new computer to get this all working again. Grr. I've decided that the alpha version of a Realm Divided will be a roguelike, vastly simplifying my life as a programmer. I'll have to re-rip my music collection now too, atleast I have my shuffle. I was going to say something else too, but I forgot. Oh yes, tomorrow is my first debate practice that I can attend. Geeze, I just relised how out of shape I am. The 40 minutes of exercise that I have to do for my phy-ed contract has been hell, but it helps me sleep better. :D
