No longer 'single' at the moment

After a post of mine was read on the Digital Paint 2 forums, I got a privet message asking me what I have wanted to do for a while now. This person asked me to join a mod team. All though, at the moment, I don't currently know enough of any programming language to help, the leader of the team doesn't either. We plan learn the art of game development and hopefully by mid summer are able to start developing a new, standalone quake mod. At the moment, we have only decided the theme of the game but in the next week, we plan on getting a list of everything we would like to see in the game as well as what we will need to pull this mod off (software). We also need to figure out what we need to learn so we don't waste time learning something that end up not using in the mod.
I will post more information about this soon as I am being very vague. Stay tuned!

Late Spring and Summer plans

As my Java class is school wraps up, with it, my Junior year in high school, I have began to think about my next coarse of action. I want to be able to start to help develop Digital Paint but there are so many routes to take, I took me a while to figure it out. I have finally figured out my plans for after school, with the help of a trusted friend. I want to know C++ but Digital Paint is programmed in C so I was at a cross road. My friend informed me that the best way to learn C++ is to learn C++ and then read through a quick tutorial to learn C and then figure out the differences between the two. It sounds like the best course of action so through the summer, I will begin to once again, learn C++. I will also learn the ways of 3dsMax and hopefully by the end of summer, I will begin to be an asset to the Digital Paint community. Its a while away but hell, got to think big some times.

Busy...

I haven't had much time at all to do anything of notable mention for the past month. Aside from wrestling and weight lifting twice a week and putting in 15 hours+ at work, I haven't had much time to learn anything more in 3dsMax. The Java class at school is going well, although at the slow pace, I am excelling at a faster pace. I am reading a Java tutorial book at night as a second source of information and I believe it is the reason for my faster learning pace. The book is called, Java Programming For Dummies and is a great Beginner to Intermediate Java tutorial.
On a totally unrelated topic, my Pre Calculus class is becoming more and more easy for me. I absolutely love math and it comes very easy for me. Pre Calculus is a little more different then Algebra but I have finally figured out how to understand it more and more and haven't gotten less then a 90% on any test. Hopefully this will help my College Transcript look even better as I will be applying to colleges as soon as my Junior year comes to an end.
