Cool Google Map Sites

Ran across this today thought it might interest some people out there…
Cool Google Maps

Some pretty nifty ideas for mapping data. I especially liked the “Where is Tim” mapping; that would be really cool if company’s or shipping trucks implemented such things? Maybe a way to literally track a package on a ruck of exact location… endless mapping ideas!

Call of Duty 2 - Xbox360 Style

Well… finally opened up the game (COD2) and I’m partially happy and partially let down. The single player is immaculant from what I can tell so far; intense gunfire, action everywhere, screen candy and effects to make you momma blush! Though my gaming style has adapted, I now lean more towards online gaming much more than single player aspects. Only a select few games have been able to hold my attention long enough for good gaming offline - Kameo, Jade Empire, Zelda and Mario titles are some.

Xbox 360 Thoughts

Okay, this has been expressed over through many methods and ways, but now is my time to shine :)

I was very lucky enough to have purchased the console on a midnight release after waiting 12 hours in line. I’m extremely fortunate to be one of the few owners out there.

Well a buddy of mine has been humping (Not literally…) and breaking his back to whip up his new project of a gaming site. GameMentors.com which will be focused on gamers and not the advertising and bull-crap associated with other similar sites. Plus it will be FREE! How can ill they compete? They won’t be able to…. period.

Well yesterday my sweetheart went into CFCC to re-enroll into her courses while I started on my application for the AIOnline classes I am wanting to take badly. I’m currently writing up my admission essay; and it is the key part that bases my enrollment or not. I swear if I get rejected I’m going to kill my self… (No not really!).

You Make Me Sick

Those were the last words to me from my baby? Odd, or just plain nasty? Something is definitely not right here, huh? I really am lost for an explanation this time; though I believe I just might have a faint clue on what is going on.

Halloween Horror Nights 15 and Saw II

What a wonderful weekend it was! It had been planned out for at least a month in advance; Halloween Horror Nights we were going to. Also we added in the cherry topping so to speak of seeing Saw II before we headed down to Orlando on Sunday. Unfortunately me and my sweetheart got into a small tasty quarrel the night we were supposed to go see Saw II; though it didn’t ruin the night completely, we just wouldn’t allow it!
WARNING: Long Post Ahead…

Errands Ran Today

Had some stuff I had to take care of… first I swung by the Court House to pay the schmucks there $80.00 fine for the ticket I was issued for not having eye-wear on a couple months back. The nI hit good old Wally World for a black visor on my helmet (Looks Sexy Now!) and finally ended up surprising my baby at work. She was almost off her lunch break so we just went over to Baskin Robbins and got some ice cream.

Got home took my clean cloths off the line and folded them. Called Art Institute back… I’m so close to enrolling. I need to get up the funds to get some hardware I’m going to need for schooling: color printer, scanner and a wacom tablet. Basic computer equipment really. I’ve narrowed down that I’m going to be taking the Web Design Diploma my first year then follow up with either the Digital Design Diploma or straight into the Interactive Media AS, I’ll have a year to decide. I’m super happy about this whole school thing. This is great really.

School is a Coming

I think finally it is my time to excel and proceed with furthering my education. I want to be more and do more in life… not these endless jobs worth nothing. Well, I contacted Art Institute to gladly be told that their online courses support the Macintosh platform.

I talked with the admissions advisor, Jeff, for about an hour on several thoughts and concerns. I’m excited. Seriously. My passion has been to get into graphic design and become so much more. It just might be that time coming!
