Ahh, the freshly squozen thoughts of Dalum. I try to post as often as I can, but sometimes life is just too busy to get stuff out in a reasonable amount of time. Please enjoy my random thoughts and drop me a line if you like.

12/15/2004 08:31:00 PM - Spare time? HA! What's that?!?!?

I've had a very minimal amount of spare time on my hands recently.  Wait, let me rephrase that...  I've had no spare time at all for the past few years.  Things just seem to be speeding up and I'm not keeping pace.  It's pretty frustrating at times.  But I've just got to learn how to adjust.  Things are finally settling down with my old relationship(s) and my life with my daughter is is gettign easier.  Work is oddly stressful where it shuoldn't be but is easy enough to deal with.  So now that I've got some "spare time" on my hands I thought it would be neet to try my hand at some things.

First is writing.  I'm not looking to be a great novelist, but I do have a knack at certain things.  So I thought a tech manual would be a good place to start.  I can take my thoughts and experiences and apply them to a publication worth while to a good section of end users.  This should be a fun endeavor.  More to come on this as time allows me to complete my project.

Next, I've been entertaining going back to school.  Back in the day, I had a knack for gaming.  Playing them.  Decompiling them.  Creating small, simple games.  Testing them.  It was all something that I lost touch with a few years after I moved out of my parent's place.  It's not because of things like gettign married or having a child or anything like that.  It happened between when I left and before I got married.  I lost sight and went to college for Computer Science/Business Management major and an Accounting Minor.  It's just what they offered from the school I went to.  I thought I'd be able to propel my wants and need from gaming into a career in gaming.  I just got burned out.  Now that there are colleges that specifically offer gaming oriented degrees, I am back in the saddle.  I already looked at some universities and requested info to be sent. 

Let's see if I can get my life back on track for what I've been wanting to do since high school.
Become an accomplished student, game developer and some sort of well known person in the Paintball Community.
