Getting close Posted by Shai on 12.02.2008 at 2:01 am Filed in Everything, School

6 down, 0 to go.

Update: Another one bites the dust.

Update2: Yeah, I added one. I decided to take the optional final in one of my classes.

Update3: Internship Post Mortem too.

Weddings Posted by Shai on 08.03.2008 at 9:06 pm Filed in Everything

I just got home from a 4 day stay in Leavenworth, Washington. A friend of mine got married last night and it was quite the party. A quick ceremony, great food, hours and hours of dancing made it pretty much awesome. This was the first wedding that I’ve ever attended as a somewhat aged person. I may have been to others as a small child, I simply cannot remember. Anyway, I had a blast and it was a good vacation as well.

Internships Posted by Shai on 07.30.2008 at 1:57 pm Filed in School

Now that I know I successfully completed GAM 400, I’m searching for an internship (or part time job) in the games industry for the fall. There are a number of companies in the area, and I have at least one friend/acquaintance at most of them. Hopefully I’ll find something soon.

At summer’s end Posted by Shai on 07.25.2008 at 12:02 am Filed in Everything, School

I completed summer semester as well as I could’ve hoped for. I got an A in my CS300 class (that’s my second 4.0 so far, but the other one was from an art class, drawing to be exact.) Also, I was doing an independent study for GAM400, so I completed that today. A grade for that should be in within the next few days.

As a treat, I watched a movie tonight. Hot Fuzz, by the creators of Shaun of the Dead. It was a hilariously bloody movie, and just plain rocked. Lots of language though, so if you don’t like that stuff, then stay away.

Where’d our yard go?! Posted by Shai on 05.15.2008 at 8:57 pm Filed in Everything

I finally decided to break out the camera that I had won at a company party and take a few pictures with it. The quality is pretty crappy in my opinion, but you get what you pay for right? We’re currently re-landscaping our yard, so here’s a couple “in-progress” photos.

Spring done. Posted by Shai on 04.29.2008 at 2:23 pm Filed in Everything, School

I promised elaboration, so here it is.

I passed 2/3 of my classes, grades on the graduation plan. The class that I failed, an elective, was because I sacrificed it to do better in CS250 and ultimately pass that one, which is a required class. All three classes were required really, but CS381 wasn’t required to progress in my graduation plan. I will replace CS381 with CS370, Image Analysis, in the Fall. I will make a page in the next few days that will contain the last projects from CS250 and MAT300, they are interesting to look at/play with.

Almost done. Posted by Shai on 04.18.2008 at 4:06 am Filed in Everything, School

(Elaboration to come after many hours of sleep. Oh, and hi! *wave*)

To Theo Posted by Shai on 01.22.2008 at 4:22 pm Filed in Everything

First off, I apologize for not posting a little more often, things have been very busy of late.

Secondly, my good friend Theo is being sent back to Iraq. He’s currently in New York doing some training. So, to Theo, come back living and whole. I’ll see you in a year or so. Also, happy early birthday.

Update: Theo is back, welcome back!

Happy New Year! Posted by Shai on 01.01.2008 at 12:38 am Filed in Everything

Happy New Year to you all! Hopefully you were feeling better than I was and out partying.
