Good news...I think?

Ok, I had a recent little vacation. And, I did some thinking (aw ow).

So heres the backstory, I'm homeschoooled. Which means I have quite a bit more free time than the average student. I was thinking about my hobbies. Soccer and playing guitar. These are my passions. However, soccer is only twice a year, and guitar hurts your fingers after awhile xD.

Thus begins my search for a new hobby. I thought about some pretty weird things. And then last night, I was reading this book. It's called Little Brother and is by Cory Doctorow. It's nothing deep, I found it in the Young Adult secion at my local library. It's about this seventeen year old kid, that is mistaken for a terrorist. He's wrongly imprisoned, and when he gets out hes being watched. So he wants to get back at a corrupt government.

Now, I am not a "Anti-government" person. This book talks about things against my beliefs. However, I found the whole thing rather believable. This kid is some tech smart programmer guy. I never really thought of programming before, I always considered it to be rather geeky, and I'd leave it up to the other people. However, this book really showed me how useful, and interesting it can really be.

Therefore, last night, when I couldn't sleep at like 2 AM. I had just finished that book, and I started to look up some programming basics. This morning, I drove up to Barnes and Nobles and bought a few books on the subject.

In short, I'm attempting at taking up programming. Wish me luck

sweet (I know what it's like to be home schooled, which is what enabled me to get into lighting believe it or not ) programing, suposibly geeky, but is actually really usefull (btw, if you haven't already, download blender from www.blender.org it's free and can help you with almost any 3D file conversions that you might need)

Ok so, I've stuck with it so far. It's going slow, and I make mistakes often. But, I'm sticking with it nonetheless. I've found I really enjoy programming, kinda surprised me hahah.

just keep on keeping on (coolburn is back! WOOT!)

So, when you live in a hick town like Moyock...the internet service is unreliable to say the least.
Hahah

It went out for upwards of a week, and I spent the rest of the time catching up on online courses I take.

Buuuut, learning programming doesn't need net for some stuff, so I've still been working on that.


Gonna be gone this weekend to check out mah friends apartment, but I'll be back to sweet activity after that.

Gracias in advance. And yeah, I could care less if you completely ignore this whole little paragraph. xD

At least since your homework you won't be called a nerd by ignorant people who don't know how to use a computer.
