I've decided to start on a new layout for my-skyBlue. So for the meantime, the frontpage will be the black screen. CooL. That's all.
I know... I know, I shouldn't have gone out tonight, even after that promise. But I had a good reason. I worked quite hard lending service to the Sydney Festival, and not to go to the Thank you Party, that would be quite absurd... don't you think?
Well, it was a nice night. I had a jist of where the place was. Didn't really know until I got there. Twisting and turning and churning and wirling. Finding the Glenmore Hotel was much harder than anticipated.
Firstly, I didn't know the name of the hotel.
Secondly, I had no idea where it was.
Thirdly, the friend that I expected to go, didn't
and ... Fourthly, I wasn't very city wise............... so eventually, I rang the organiser up after going through my call history....
The place was really nice!!! I'd just absolutely loved it. You could see the Opera House and the whole city landscape. Next door to the Harbour Bridge (although it was blocked out by another building), the place was surreal. And as an added bonus, there were fireworks later in the night from right behind the opera house. Hmm.... might head there next time for pre-pre-new years of something.
I met heaps of Festival buddies (although I did forget a few of their names, I'M REALLY SORRY NICOLA), and a few new friendly faces!!! It was surreal to know that some where expert poets, some where practicing film makers, or even kid tutors. BUT BEST OF ALL, there was a COFA KID there too!!! SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COFA KIDS ARE COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the end, after two and a half spilt drinks... I knew it was time.
And lesson for today..... go To the LOO when you have the chance. Don't think you will have the chance later on. Sometimes transport runs smoothely when you don't want it to.
That's it. Time to hit the hay, then hit the book/electronic tutorials tomorrow.
Hooray!.....this marks my return back to blogging.
I havn't been blogging for quite a LONG time....mainly because I recieved this really soulful message from a stranger. She told me how important it is to keep one's life in secrecy. I agreed with her. If you told everyone everything, then those who are manipualtive and deceiptful will take it to your advantage.
But I don't care anymore. I have to many boiled up things. My life already contains to much holding back. I need to clarify.
And until further notice, I've decided not to go out and have fun until Uni starts. I can't afford to waste so much time. I can't afford it. Going out is good and stuff, but being in what trade I am proposing to do, you don't get much knowledge hanging about and doing the usual stuff. As friends, I hope you all understand. I've already wasted too much of my life.
I've gone through this decision for quite a while. I need self discipline. I need to learn. I need to know. To grow. So as of this moment, Ray is now a boring boy who stays at home. *sigh.....* as it would seem so.
I think of this as Big Brother. Isolated in a building, and you see what I get up to. Except, I am Big Brother, I filter out stuff (with that secrecy thing still there).
I'm definitely going to work on a new website.
my-Skyblue is still very childish. I like theme, but with this kind of image, I don't think I can get a good graphics role in the industry. It's time to grow up.
On the other hand, I am now learning 3DS Max 8.
Not from the GUI point of view, but actually from MAX scripting. It took a while to take in, as it was very different. But maybe if I learn the hard way, I can learn a bit more things and gain more control of the program.
Here's a good site with : basic video tutorials
Hmm...3D question. Why is 3DS Max a better than Maya in terms of modelling? I don't see why. By the looks of things, Maya seems to give you more vertice control.
