So I was sitting around yesterday bored out of my mind. Seriously. I started staring at the fish on my desktop.

I was trying to look for something to do. Searched DC++ for some games to play, didn’t really work. Tried to watch a movie, wasn’t in the mood. Do homework? It was a Saturday. No one does homework on Saturday.
Then I thought, I kinda want to learn Blender and 3D modeling and texturing. You know, do some animation and game programming. If I wanted to do animation, I’d have to learn some video editing. And for game programming, I’d have to learn DirectX programming and more C++. So, I ended up making a list of stuff I wanted to learn.
The List
- DirectX
- Advanced Game Programming
- More C++
- Blender/3D Modeling/Textures
- Basic Animation
- Basic Video Editing
- iPhone App Development
- Android Development
Yeah that’s a lot of stuff but it’ll give me something to do if I ever fall into “help I’m bored out of my mind” state again. If it ever does happen I can just refer to the list and google up some tutorials.
I tried to start learning Blender but Windows 7 had some problems with it and I didn’t feel like booting up the Vista partition. So I just spent the rest of the day doing nothing.
Yeah I know. I’m lazy. I should probably actually try to accomplish stuff on the list instead of just making one for fun but you know what? Screw you. Just keeeeding. Haha.
I think I’ll start with DirectX/Game/C++.
That’s an interesting list, I wouldn’t mind trying my hand at most of those things, but for now I wanna try to learn parallel programming, but i’m too lazy to even research it.

Yeah I know he’s teaching you guys. Wish he would’ve taught us. And I’m not taking that class yet. Probably next semester.
I can’t do android stuff till I get the phone.
