Holy wow I was totally off the ball on this during this last semester. Sorry you guys!

To be fair, this semester seriously kicked my ass. I've learned my lesson, and I now know the importance of not over-committing to taking hard classes all at once.

That said, I did pretty well regardless. It's looking like I got straight As (BOOM), and that's despite the fact that I was out-of-my-mind sick during finals week. Actually, I'm pretty confident I got one of the higher scores on my Foundations of Analysis (hard, analytical math class - mostly about learning how to do legit proofs) final, despite having spent no time studying and showing up with almost zero energy because of whatever that disease was.



Anyway, the semester is over now, and I can finally catch you guys up on what's been going on in my life! The sad thing is, because this semester was so stressful, I really did little else than school. :\

The final project I did for my software engineering class was pretty sweet, though! Anyone interested should check out this manual:

The TL;DR version of the project is a top-down shooter (ala Galaga or Gradius) built as a homebrew GBA game. The above link has a download for the executable which you can run on any GBA emulator (or at least it should work on any - definitely VBA and No$GBA work).



As for art: it looks like I'm going to be working mostly on Ustuck stuff over the summer. Depending on what programming I do, I might post some of that too, but don't expect anything. I think some of the future Ustuck stuff will be pretty cool, though, so don't feel too bad if you're not that into Homestuck. ;)



Well, let's do the same as last time: anything you guys are at all interested in hearing about, feel free to ask.

Until next time!

Your name is ARIC. You have just arrived home after another exhausting day of SCHOOL. You have a notable count of INTERESTS.

You fancy yourself a COMPUTER PROGRAMMER, and not an indecent one at that. You especially enjoy hacking together scripts to solve complex MATHEMATICAL PROBLEMS. In your room is a fancy desk for a fancy computer, but you usually just bring your LAPTOP over to bed to code in a pleasant, relaxed position. Besides, that desk is designated for your ULTIMATE COMPUTING MACHINE you plan on building - eventually.

It's questionable you could even fit that epic monster of a desktop in that place, though, considering it and most of your room is covered with piles of CARDS. You spend most of your afternoons tinkering around with MAGIC DECKS and as a consequence, you're fairly adept at SLINGING SPELLS. You even occasionally PAINT EXTENSIONS OF THEIR IMAGES to MAKE THEM COOLER LOOKING.

The rest of your room is full of different trinkets you've collected over time, like an OFFICER'S SWORD, some TEXTBOOKS, a PRIZED GIFT FROM A CLOSE FRIEND, and a SWEET GUITAR. Most of these are for nothing more than for show. Although you often wish you had WICKED ROCK BAND SKILLS, in reality you are pretty pathetic in the MUSIC DEPARTMENT.

What will you do?

I never realized that! Nice of you to even consider drawing fanart for me - I'm flattered!

Speaking of the new Pokemon game, where are you now? I hadn't the chance to comment on your journal (so glad you're back into Pokemon, btw. Means we still have that in common). What's your team like so far?

I'm glad. :) If I ever manage to get something that doesn't look like a pissed-off druggie, I'll post it. ;D

Currently grinding for the E4. I went with a Nuzlocke Challenge for my intro run (probably in foolishness, lol), so a little tight on choices for my team, but this is it so far:

Lvl 50 Reuniclus, nick: Ana (ala Anaphase, lol)
Lvl 50 Swanna, nick: Donald
Lvl 50 Darmanitan, nick: Totoro (because I thought darumaka looked like totoro kind of)
Lvl 48 Serperior, nick: Shades
Lvl 48 Galvantula, nick: Tesla (btw, Galvantula is a BOSS - single handedly defeated the whole ice gym while ~2 levels below the average pokemon there. xD)
Lvl 47 Boldore, nick: Freddie (also btw: if you wouldn't mind, I'd love to get this guy and a Gurdurr evolved at some point... trade maybe?)

How about yourself?

Wow, a Nuzlocke on your initial run? That's adventurous! You've also got a pretty capable team for your Nuzlocke, particularly that Reuniclus. I love your nicknames, too.

Here's my Black team, which I started last week:
Lv. 25 Boldore, Viol (he's shiny, so he's purple)
Lv. 21 Pignite, Bellicoso (warlike, in musical terms)
Lv. 21 Tranquil, Mamepato (that's getting changed soon)
Lv. 21 Venipede, Vertas
Lv. 20 Whimsicott, Hargreaves

And my Japanese White team:
Lv. 38 Emboar, Baku
Lv. 38 Fraxure, Jack (until I think of something better)
Lv. 38 Scraggy, Harvy (hello, character limit)
Lv. 38 Lilligant, Cheru (holy crap, what a BAMF)
Lv. 37 Duosion, Rokuu

We should trade when you have time. I'd really like to get my Boldore evolved as well. I'll be in and out of home today and tomorrow, but it may be the last chance I have to trade. I'm moving to an area where the internet will be free, but I'm not sure the city internet will be compatible with Nintendo Wi-Fi.

Yeah, but turns out I have to pussy out a bit on the end - I accidentally saved myself into the E4 without finishing my grinding. =__=;;

Also: ooh, shiny pokemon. :)


I'm up for trading this weekend - just give me a time. I've got nothing going on, and free access to an internet connection that works. Tonight's no good though, because I'm doing a SC2 tourney at the University.

BTW: Friend code is 2365 4970 9423, name Altik in game.
