Why yes, I knew I had a blog.

And thus today I discovered that blogging is important. So much so that my computer monitor is now covered in sticky note reminders. It's obnoxious! 8D

This face is especially fun: >8{}

That all aside, tonight I continue to work on our flash intro. It will, without a doubt be done this week, and I apologize for taking so long. D: (I really need to stop it with the text faces, but I doubt I'll be able to wean myself off of them.)

I am a slow animator, probably because I detest motion tweens. I mean, not that they aren't convenient, because they certainly are, and not that they don't make the animation look smooth, because they most definitely do, but they're a bit, well... "Look, this object slid to the right at a steady pace. You may applaud now."

Actually, now that I think about it, the time I'm taking here probably doesn't have as much to do with my preference of frame-by-frame animation as it does with the nature of the animation. There aren't really any objects sliding at a steady pace, just a lot of appearing and fading, things which I've no clue how to do without using frame-by-frame techniques. So sorry.

Oh, and we get to interview our Minuteman, Neil B. (Skinhead) Turner on Saturday. I'm already frightened without having met the fellow.

He's affiliated with this website (http://unitedstates.fm/sdmm.htm), upon which Mexicans are at times referred to as Enriques. This is going to be the adventure of a tooth-time or not. D:

Oh, so in addition to all of this project stuff, we read a story tonight for homework, which, in my opinion, is the best type of homework, and I learned a new word, which is always neat. I had a bit of fun with it before I bothered digging the dictionary out though. It would be fun if vernal meant "of or pertaining to gentlemen named Vern." Not that it's real meaning isn't interesting.

Rambling, should be animating. Or leveling my healer up so that she can use the spell "Ray" and thus combine with my mage to use the Unison Attack "Prism Stars." Probably animating. Just a guess.
