No…I’m still alive!

So I haven’t posted in a while and I figured I should quickly post with a catch up. Work is going good, a lot of work to get done, but we are accomplishing a lot of really cool things over here. I have taken on a task of reviewing programming books, I have two books in my hands right now, I have finished one and am working on the other. Stay tuned for reviews on my site of them. Summer is nice, I actually missed the warm weather, but not getting sunburned. Florida Day was this past weekend, and it was really nice to see a lot of old friends and make some new ones. I sat out by the pool most of Saturday, and then on Sunday I went to the beach. It is not a good idea to get burned at the pool and then decide to goto the beach the next day. But it was worth it. It was a lot of fun and I am very happy that I went. With being so busy lately I haven’t had time to hang with some of my friends, but I promise that I am working harder to correct that.

On a slightly geekier note. I have been addicted to one computer game since I was really young. I love the Sid Meier’s Civilization series. I have Civilization 4 for Mac and play it regularly when I have some free time. I also enjoy playing Age of Empires 3 (thanks to my roommate). But the exciting news is that Civilization Revolutions is being released as a console game for XBox 360. So I am very excited to pickup a copy on June 8th. Yay!

Well I hope everyone is well. I hope to write something a little more geeky in the coming days!

Secret Blog

I am blogging from an undisclosed location as my whereabouts are currently a secret. The person it is a secret from probably doesn’t even read this. Oh well, they will when I show it to them later. Just to rub it in. I hope everyone has a good weekend and all of my friends who have finals this coming week at UCF have a semi-painless weekend studying for exams.

New Computer - Oh and a new job

Well I finally bought the computer to replace my 20″ iMac G5 (that I sold over 6 months ago). I went to the Apple store today to purchase a new 24″ iMac. Let me tell you Cory’s advice was dead on. Getting a 24″ was well worth it, lots of space on the desktop etc. The one negative is how much physical desk space it took up. Oh well, a sacrifice I am willing to take.

Also for anyone who didn’t know, I have left UCF and am now working for a very creative web development company, NFi Studios. I have been there already 3 weeks, and I feel right at home. I work with some pretty remarkable people, who take great pride in the end product, and know how to have fun doing it. So overall life is great! BarCamp Orlando is coming up, so if you are into that kinda stuff, get your butt out there. Also the release of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 is coming up. Lot’s to do this month and next. I hope to update some, in a bit.

Long time no post

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while…

Marching Knights are leaving on the 26th to goto Memphis for the Liberty Bowl, which is very exciting for me, since I get to go. Life is good, enjoying the holiday break.

Check out Yahoo Pipes if you have a chance and are a RSS Feed person. It is really worth the time.

Back to work!

UCF Football!

So after a win against NC State, I am really psyched about the first game in BHNS (Bright House Networks Stadium). It is the coolest thing ever to realize that we are opening up a BRAND NEW STADIUM, and this really is a once in a lifetime event. I do have season tickets this year in section 114 (home side) but I will not be using them (my family will). I get to be with the band this entire year. I hope everyone who can comes out to the game. It is a sold-out game I do believe. But there are always tickets somewhere.

Besides that life is good. School is going good.
