The Beginning of Adventure

Finally.

One word, which sums up everything I’ve pushed aside.  Finally I can be free to explore me again.  All the hours of working and living for other peoples’ expectations are going to slowly be given back to me.

I’m sick and tired of having to compromise my thoughts, ideals, confidence and wisdom to keep in line with others.  Fuck conformity.  It’s time for adventure of my kind.

I haven’t written a fresh story for days; too much caught up within other peoples’ politics and drained from their dismissing attitudes towards who I am.  Basically, they can’t care less and I care less for them.  I ramble.  I’m on adventure and must remember to pack a can of AWV (attitude with vengeance) in my handbag along with an emergency gadget to fend off the pretentious freaks.

My first stop is revival of my immortality and hoping it will be something as.  Living the Seriphyn Knight story again and allowing to be than to force it to be something else.  I’ve tried so many approaches and in the end realise that my first was the best as it was the most instinctive.

I’m going to tidy it up and Lulu it for print and eBook distribution.  The ebook will be for free whilst print at a cheaper-than-chips cost.  At the same time, I’ll be updating the story on a regular time slot, which will be announced as soon as I work out the best one.

Reading Text Books

I think I’m becoming a connoisseur of text books.  I’ve read more non-fiction than fiction these days.  All based on 3D design programmes. I must admit the reference and tutorial manuals for Poser 8 could have been laid out a bit better albiet the content being quite helpful.  The reference manual for Vue7 began as a sales pitch for their add in modules but ended up a useful resource.  It had a more intuitive flow than the Poser 8 one.  Hexagon 2.2 manual is, um, putting it nicely, a load of rubbish.  Half of it was written based on an earlier version and the video tutorials were created in French?

I do like the flow of the Geekatplay video tutorials, and the speed is quite reasonable.  Like Youtube, it’s best to wait for the whole thing to download before playing it.

My favourite learning tool is the Adobe modules I’m completing through ElementK.  The layout is quite intuitive and easy to navigate around.  The content is at the right pace and level of understanding for me.  I also don’t have to wait for the movies to download.  Connections are quite quick and I’m able to learn and not think about bandwidth or going off to make a coffee to allow for sentence breaks.

Ah learning.  Now that I’m going to be unemployed soon, I’m making the most of my free time and cramming in as much knowledge as I can; keeping my skills up.
