L00t.

A bit late, but here’s some of the stuff I got from Christmas. Man, DelLib needs a lot of things in their incomplete app, but the ability to change the graphic on something is one.

What time is it? ITS VACATION TIME

School’s out for vacation in like an hour and…20 minutes. Ish. But before salvation is mine, I must endure through a pep assembly. Anyone who knows me that assembling my pep is like trying to build a full size airplane with toothpicks. It ain’t gonna happen. So I’m now off […]

As mentioned on NSLog();, EA has very nicely taken the entire football video game genre and in one swift, decisive move, kicked everyone squah in the nuts.

The Sad Panda

The Sad Panda is a story I made for my PowerPoint class. It’s about a panda. Who is sad.
