So I must first apologize for the missing of days previously. I leave my punishments up to you. School has started to get a little more intense and I'm making some poor decisions about when I go to or stay asleep. I'm sure part of it is switching to a new schedule so it should all be over soon.
I've been doing some fancy things in class and cannot wait to get to the more fancy stuff. We've been starting particle effects, and I'm talking extremely basic ones starting from "open up an empty project in visual studio" sort of basic. I think it'll get less basic pretty quick and some good optimization things will start going in once the rest of the class catches up.
Modelling class, which is a lot less glamorous than it sounds, is great as well, our prof has really low expectations from us since we aren't artists, we're programmers. He seemed pretty happy with us when we started noticing polys with 5 vertices and are asking good questions about the stuff he's showing us.
On to the slightly more embarrassing part of things though. I've been sleeping a lot and for the last week or so I've just been napping in the afternoon. Well the last few days I've been waking up extremely early, think 3-4 in the morning or so, and have been unable to get back to sleep. I suspect this is part of why my sleep schedule hasn't returned to normal. I did however sleep for a long enough time recently that I should have caught up to my accrued debt to sleep. I also tripped going up the stairs today and my foot is still hurting. Odd that my foot is the only part that got injured at all.
I'm shocked though by people's shock at seeing the books I read. Just because they are massive, and yes I agree a 1200 page book is quite large and impressive, they aren't some mystical tome of arcane knowledge. That said, I do wish that I could've gotten this latest one in paperback since hard cover makes it unweildly, which my computer is telling me isn't a word.I am really enjoying it though, in a way that I haven't enjoyed a book since I first started reading fantasy novels, and perhaps not even then. It's not a TTGL or KLK type of feeling though, it's something I don't think I've really gotten out of a book before. I'm sad that it's only 2 books in but am glad there's another 3 at least in the wings after this, according to the author's page on Wikipedia.
