What life? The real one!
Alright I've been told I need to write about my real life in my blog from my friend and really I've been considering it. I figure I'll try it. I'll also try and keep some of my shallow facade technical stuff. Firstly to ease into it Rick & I have been working on writing a high-level easy to understand explanation of what my application is going to be. I'm really bad at trying to explain what I want an application to do. I've also made a few new friends at school lately, firstly one in my first two hours. She's pretty nice and quite intelligent. I was very intrigued to see that in debating evolution and what not, she had a basis in which to debate off of. Further more there is this gal in my gym class who seems to be trying to dry hump me at every angle. I find it rather humorous to see her try and explain her being attracted to me with out stating it. I've acutely between reading about psychology and seeing this in person; been able to note when people are flirting and what not. When you get down to it, it's really quite a few simple obvious things. Currently life is perusing on at a constant velocity and yet, nothing is truly eventful. I called out one of my teachers today for being so power-hungry. He was talking about how we're obedient when substitutes are present and I said something along the lines of "Yeah I believe all the excessive yelling and over use of your whistle has stuck with us" and mind you this guy must love just yelling at his students. I've formed a residency in my Health class which has a population of three (it's truly just a table that I try and get people to sit at). The joke is I might bring in food and band aids to say we have free food and health care. The problem with this last statement is the work to make that happen, quite frankly it's a lot of time to schedule something as minuscule as that, funny none-the-less. I've found Google's SMS service rather amazing. I now can text message Google's wonderful little SMS number and ask it what the weather is in my area which for a weather freak like me is very amazing. I have a ton of things I've done but I'm not sure I want to be Mr. Verbose so I think I'll call it a show, thanks for watching.

The Status in which I have statustized
Lately I've been playing around with Facebook and to my amazement they have a java development section. I'm going to see what I Facebook app's I can write with Java. If it works as I think it will, I'll be able to make Facebook apps without having to learn PHP which looks pretty rough from what I'm used to. I've also been playing a lot of eve which is starting to become very interesting. I'm still in the same cheapo ship but my skills are starting to make that ship powerful. I've also been twittering like mad and I'm still loving the Flock web browser. I found a Facebook game called AntRush which is pretty fun. It's a strategy game that doesn't require full attention which is pretty nice even though with flock I'm on all my social networks quite a bit. I was pretty amazed the other day to find this cool web service which tests your words per minute : http://labs.jphantom.com/wpm/ . I did pretty good seeing as this isn't the keyboard I usually use. I tried the Iron Man ps3 demo which was alright but certainly not the best demo I've played. Kinda repetitive game play. I think the customization of weapons which they've included would be neat however they took that bit out of the demo thus making it a one time play demo since it's very repetitive. However there was this one 40 or so MB puzzle demo I tried, I can't recall the name right at the moment however it was about EchoPerspective maybe was the name however it was a perspective game like those art styles you see of optical illusions except turned into a game, it was pretty interesting. Still playing Pain, good buy there. Not much else to say, I did get owned at my LUG when I tried to explain the frame work of my Socrates application which I'll be putting down for a few months till summer since I don't have the time or care to develop that application at the moment. I do plan on writing a facebook application like I said early I'm just not quite sure which one. I was planning on writing a basic counter with an image and simple description for world histories IGA thing. Another project I plan on doing is writing a simple GUI front end to jmePhysics engine which would prove a challenge but more than probably worth it. Sean and I have been trying to work on Teen Linux Lounge except he's a power n00b and can't get his microphone's to work so probably another week with out a TLL episode which seems to be killing the community, I hope we can keep the community going however advertising ourself as a Podcast doesn't work anymore thus leaving us as some teens who use Linux and hang out in IRC. The school's Linux front is slowly progressing which is nice to see, hopefully we can convert a few more people in the latter months of the school year. Now I'm really done.
