March Update
I wish I had more time. I really do. Here's what I've got on my plate at the moment:
- Work on a site for a club I'm involved in
- Finish up my game engine so I can get a few other projects using it up and running
- Re-Plan out the UI for Lucid 2.0, and maybe get some server-side stuff planned
- Find work so I can buy stuff and/or pay bills
I probably keep myself busier than I need to, but I digress. The website for the club should be easy, it's just I need to do the design. I'm probably going to go with Plone, since it's written in python, and looks fairly easy to use (I won't be the person posting content on the site for the most part).
The game engine I started over the summer and never finished, then picked it up again during my first semester, then dropped it again. There isn't much left to do now that I think about it (there's also a memory leak in it I believe), so I could probably get it done in a few weeks if I tried.
Lucid 2.0 has been in incubation for a while now, I just need to sit down and plan it out. One component I have solid, but I need to plan out the rest. Let's just say it'll be like nothing any web application has ever implemented before.
The main reason why I need work right now is so I can pay for college-related expenses, but more relevant at the moment would be that HvZ is coming up, and I wanted to buy some gear for it without feeling guilty about it later (I rarely purchase anything to begin with, so my lack of a steady income doesn't help). Right now I'm looking at getting a Nerf Recon, a shoulder holster to modify for it, and PVC parts for building a long-range rifle. My friends take HvZ pretty seriously. There's also some little things that I wanted, like a gamepad for my computer, or a webcam for my desktop. I also have my eyes on a pair of AKG K702s, since I need a good pair of headphones for when my neighbors and/or roommate complain about my speakers (which sound good, but the bass is a bit muddy). Mind you, these would never leave my room if I were to get them. Ever.
I'm just hoping I can get my act together and finish the engine and the site in like a month-ish. I just need to get stuff off my plate at this point. I don't mind working on these projects, it's just at times I spread myself too thin, and people pull me in too many different directions. Or maybe it's that I pull myself in too many different directions. Meh. I suppose it's better than idling my time away though.
