Right, last nights blog was quite litterally an emergency vent to allow me to sleep, unfortunatly - i didnt get to sleep, the last thing I remember is looking at my alarm and it reading 7:12 AM, the next thing I remember, its reading 2:43 PM and I’ve slept through BOTH my phone and my alarm going off at 8 AM, and a full day of college.

Thats more than a few times so far, ever since I went to the awesomeness that was faded glory, my sleep cycle has been thrown like this, but after a whole week of feeling either tired or exhausted and not sleeping properly (last nights blog post being an example of the contradiction that is my mind) im cutting out everything escept "morning" caffine, because I’ve been drinking more to cover the tiredness, and thats not going to be good for my system, and I’m seriously considering buying some Nytol or something like that after the end of my shift at work tonight, and use that as a "helping hand" to reset my sleep cycle and get things back into gear again.

Anywho, after last nights blog, i feel slightly better for myself, and I feel slightly better for the advise of Royce (who yet again delivers the mental kick to the arse my mind is in need of) and - to whoever else decides to drop a line.

Buuuuu-uuuuut . . . lets get this outta the way, because we have GOOD things to cover!

I now, quite obviously have my own, home internet connection now, in the form of a 3 mobile usb dongle, and i seriously dont know what the complaint is about them, I have never lost signal, never had anything less than my 1.3 meg per second speeds on download and upload, and I’ve never lost connection from it, its a god-send for me in my room without a phone or cable connection, and its portable, I can hook it up wherever I can pick up the 3 network on any PC and just go, at the moment, im just checking how much i really use in a month before i begin well, being a pirate - but so far i think ive used 3 gig, upload and download in about 50 hours - which is pretty damn awesome if I dont say so myself.

The only problem with this is, my computer is getting filled by the minute, i need an external hard-drive to hold everything!

Next up comes faded glory, the 5 day easter event - which is so jam packed with awesome, i have compiled it together into what I call the -

"Awesome-gasm!"

Amongst the crazyness that is FG, we had 3 ceremonies, the troll/elf alliance/wedding of one of our well, lets just say hillarious characters Elsquire (Aka Tristian), and a troll called Gurka played by the amazingly made up and suited up Karen, who ended up double strengthing his fingers until the bones cracked mid-ceremony to make him say "Yes!" followed up by the evening meal, which included Lord Malnear, the Severus Snape lookalike/massive walking tit - breakdancing! crudly written notes being stuck to people! and some very interesting notes made by a certain page/underling . . . hehehe

There was also a troll funeral, for the death of the last troll king, which was actually really cool to do, considering funerals arent really "Mah Thang" and having well, a politeness match between myself and Kell, im not sure which character he was at that moment of time, but im fairly sure he wanted to shive me!

Last but not least, there was the ascension of Uufton to the throne of the troll kings, which had players actually crying, real tears - mid ceremony, i have to admit, even I felt a twang coming on as the player party turned thier backs to him to prove he stands alone, and his hillarious comments afterwards, and the final fight of the weekends just proved to be nothing short of "Awesome-gasm!"

On top of this, my college paperwork pile is getting smaller and smaller, i just really need to put in that final push in order to finish my music video and everything is done, its just a shame my tutors dont believe that . . . but what the hell, i have the final week of college, and 2 weeks of half term to get that organised, filmed, edited and done.

Then its onto the stage where learning stops and exam revision begins, at least I’ll be better off with that video I HAVE to make out of the way, so I can make the video I WANT to make.

And oh yeah - i started my 3d work again too.



Okay, I’ve got to admit, Im more than a little inspired by Kitfox and the Stolen/Restored generation webcomic series, especially the ship designs of the Russian Phased Transition Array Battleships (A battleship with crystal lattice armour capable of absorbing full on nuke blasts without scratching the paint, and firing a blast phased out of our mathematical "Green zone" of the universe, which is capable to simply "Nullifying" all matter in its path . . . thier fucking EVIL!) and i just took the design, tried my hardest to reproduce it with the few, not to great tools Sketchup has, and well, played around with thier setting a bit!

There may be more work on that design yet . . .
