Break from Blogging Continues

BUT to let you know, I made it home safely. Also, anyone wishing to catch up on Heroes can watch all the episodes on their site.

Also, if anyone's curious, I regularly use Skype to keep in contact with people. It's a messaging program, but it allows for voice chat, so its like a telephone. And, you can even pay a subscription fee to call local and long distance phones.

A Break from Blogging

Since I'm coming home in a couple days, I probably won't have any blogs for a few weeks. After all, I'll be in regular contact with most of the people who read this.

To conclude this semester, it is awesome to be able to go to school for something I love. This semester didn't have especially challenging material, but this is just a catch-up year anyway. I won't be taking the real masters classes until next year, and when that happens, I'm sure I'll be well-challenged.

Seattle is a cool town with lots going on. Though, it is not a night city compared to most cities I hear. That is, things close earlier, as opposed to people wandering around bars til dawn. Fine by me. Seems to be a city of professionals, as well as free-thinkers. But, I've also only been here a few monthes, we'll see what I have to say as time goes.

Ok well, I'll sign off til January. Though, here's a picture I made for Facebook using their simple paint program thingy. Happy holidays from Aku and Jack!

Newspaper Taxis

Ok, well Seattle has had some weather problems, though none have really affected me. There was a good snow earlier in the week, and everyone liked that. But the next couple of days had more rain than usual, and I guess there was flooding and mudslides and stuff up north. My area was perfectly fine, though I think one of my professors had a flooded lawn. He cancelled class to clean stuff up.

All my projects are completed! With any luck, I'll be able to post videos of them on Youtube. Just got one final left, and I don't think it'll be horrible. We're also gearing up for next semester's game. It will rawk! Besides that, I just have to make it sure that I get home. Goat House will have it's first Reunion Party, though it is a half-year reunion.

If my dad doesn't mind, I may invade his new computer with game-making software so that I may work over break. I will also bring home a few things to keep me occupied, including Samurai Jack, Avatar, and a new movie by the FLCL people called Dead Leaves (it's crazy!). Also, has anyone been watching Heroes? Holy cow! Syler got some spinach! WE'RE IN TROUBLE. I am eager for the next season and the bonus Heroes : Origins, whatever that will be. Though, things are still delayed until the writer's strike is sorted out. I support the writers and everything, but this is difficult for us too.
