In the link above you will see:

1. E3 2004 Trailer: if you haven't seen it, please do it NOW!!!

2. E3 reaction: It's funny to see people reaction when they saw the trailer at E3. It has alot of emotions, and it makes you want to scream and jump like them. My reaction when i saw the trailer was similar to them.

3. Hyrule castle test: you can see the structure of part of the castle. It's not detailed....not detailed at all. In fact it's all blue. But it's a good watch cuz you can have an idea of how the castle would look like.

Maybe some of you have already seen those videos, but for those who hasn't...well.. watch them. NOW! :)

Yesterday there was a protest in my college (no classes, yahoo!) for the low quantity of parkings. In this semester there are alot of freshmeat and the parking are always full. Thanks God i live near college and all i have to do is walk. There are people who parking in the grass around, and thats not allowed. The police even gives tickets to them, thats the reason for the protest. This problem has been affecting students for years and the administration has done nothing about it.

The protest ended and i heard that the admins are going to make a Multi-Storey Car Park with a capacity of 400 cars. This is going to solve the problem for sure, but the sad thing is that we have to protest for them to make them. Why don't they use their knowleadge and ask themselves: what is good for the students?. If people were more charismatic and helpful there wouldn't be this protests.

Today i walked from my house to the university to take my second class of the day ( i live near the univ. btw) And there was a guy with a long metal wire, he inserted the wire in a little opening above the window. His mission: to try to hook the wire in the door handle inside the car and open the door. I was like: "OMG, a carjacking! Call the cops!" But the car was his, and i was relieve. He asked for help, but i was a minute late for the class...but the hell, i never say no and more when a person wants my help. So i helped him.

i tried to use the wire and do the exact same thing, but i didn't have luck. It passed like 15 minutes and the door was still closed. I was desperate, i was 16 minutes late, but i didn't wanted to leave the guy alone so i keep trying. There was a moment when i was told myself: "I'm going to open this door no matter what". The wire was flexible and i created a very strange form to the wire and "BANG", i opened the door. The guy was so happy, and i was happy for him. I felt great, i made the right choice to help that guy. So i went to my class 20 minutes late, the class already started. But i didn't care because i did the right choice.

Sometimes is better to give than to recieve, and i experience that today. When you see a guy asking for help try your best to help him and do not ignore him, except if he is a gangsta :P But serious, help someone a person that ask for help, and i'm sure that in the must unexpected day someone will help you too if you are in need.

I'm taking this semester 14 credits, i eliminated a class becuase i don't want to study like a slave. And i don't want to take alot of clases to finish my mayor (Microbiology) fast. "Don't worry about going slow, worry about stoping" Thats phrase helps me alot. I'm not going to stop, but i don't want to suffer neither..i'm taking thing slow but good. I want to have great grades too, and with alot of classes it wouldn't be possible. I always get A and B grades, only one C in Precalculus and i'm planning in take it again.

My classes this semester are:

• Physics I
• Physics Lab. I
• Organic Chemistry I
• Organic Chemistry Lab. I
• Spanish Literature I
• Occidental Culture III

The ones i try to study alot are Physics and Organic Chemistry cuz they are the hard ones. Well, when i study of those i study of Lab at the same time, so i don't have to worry. The other two are easy classes...A grade classes ;)

If someone is taking or had took a class that i'm taking right now, please comment here about your experience with it or maybe we can help each other to get an A grade :)

Plus., you can comment about what classes are you taking this semester too ^_^

This is the banner i made to Green for his Jorunal:

Like you see, i'm a fan of nature and i try to incorporate it in all my sigs. The first thing i made are:

1. the sky and the clouds (layer 1)
I used the smudge tool to create the effect of the clouds.
2. then i draw the mountains (layer 2)
Give details with the brush (size 1), little by little, changing the intensity of the colors.
3. then the grass and the trees (layer 3)
details with brush (size 1 and 2) have patience. try changing the intesity of the color. Use a little of smudge.
For a better grass, try using a dark green for the back and then you starts making the grass over the dark green, use a light green for the color of the grass. Then use another green color and start making grass, this type a little darker green (not as dark as the back color)
4. The leaves (layer 4)
Give details with green colors, this one is not that hard.
5. the lizard (layer 5b)
Prepare your hand's pulse, make the form of the lizard. Add shadows behind him cuz there is where the tree is. And add light in his front cuz that where the sun is. Give details with brush (size 1 and 2) Always change the intensity of the color.
6. the map (layer 5a) it goes before the layer 5b
Use a light brown and use the dodge tool to give it a light effect.
7. the font (layer 6)
Make a font of any size, then make another one but bigger and darker,and you add it behind the first font. . That greats a cool effect of shadow. Use a lighter color to give the each letter a light effect.

For the final touchs you can use the dodge and burn tools, with very very low intensity, to give create the shadows and lightness that you want. If you have any doubt please, comment here :)

I have played alot of flash games but this 3 games are the ones that had caught my attention for been beautiful and intelligent.
Here are my top 3:

1. Samorost: http://analogik.org/samorost.asp
It was made by Jakub Dvorsky aka Amanita. I have to give this guy an applause for been so original and creative in his way to express himself in a flash. You can see how great each location is, with a combination of nature and technology in each of them. The purpose of the game is to save your ship from a another ship type of planet. It's my fav. flash animation ever. Enjoy!

2. Crimson Room: http://www.fasco-csc.com/works/crimson/crimson_e.php
An awesome puzzle game that force you to think alot. Try not using a guide to solve the puzzles, you will feel great knowing that you beated that game by your own. If you liked it, try playing the Viridian Room (the sequel to Crimson Room)

3.. Quest for the Rest: http://www.minijuegos.com/juegos/html/index.php?id=2168
It is made by Amanita too a little short but great indeed. What i love of this flash is the atmosphere and the music of it. The music is made by The Polyphonic Spree, their music is very catchy and has a great message in each song. Try to stop in each level, and hear the song...it's awesome.

Enjoy each flash game! ^_^

Inspiration is very important to artists, musicians, developers, ect. Sometimes it doesn't show till longer in life, but when it shows be sure to use it the right way. The inspiration can sometimes make you richer, but that is not that important thing. The purpose of inspiration is to make you a better and more talented person. It can separate you from the others, your thoughts are unique and nobody else can think the same. And unique person, with an unique idea, to make an unique archievement in the world.

In my case, my ideas (in art) are nothing that can contribute to our world but it can make others feels happy, with satisfaction and can even transmit inspiration to others. Inspiration is more like a race relay, you give the inspiration to a person and that person give the inspiration to the other. I find it in videogames, music, places, but mostly in the nature. Nature is the powerplant of inspiration, the trees, leaves, flowers, animals, clouds, sun...everything the nature has it's great and beautiful. I love how the light touches the leaves and create an beautiful green color or how my cats reacts with certain situations. Or the different forms of clouds,...there are so many shapes that i could look at them forever.

Nature is simply breathtaking and is sad how people doesn't respect it by cuting dows trees and throwing wastes to them. I get angy! Thats no way to treat the person that give you the necessary oxigen to live. And it also gives us the inspiration that makes us unique.

So when you want a bit of inspiration be sure to look at everything God made for us...the sky, the clouds, the trees i.e. the nature. You will not regret it ^_^

I deeply love adventure games, IMo they are the best genre ever. So whats so great about adventure games you ask.

Let me tell you:

1. the story is always amazing, sometimes deep...sometimes funny...but always great. They keep you interested in the game from start to end.
Ex: Grim Fandango has a great story, you are a travel agent in the World of the Dead and you most find your your ticket out of that world. Best game ever

2. The characters has to be well made, especially in the inside. They have to transmit a feeling to us, that way you can be that character...you can feel what he feels...you can live what he is living.
Ex: Monkey Island: Every character is stylish and great, but Guybrush Threepwood....man, that guy is amazing. He know how to make you laugh and enjoy the game. Best personality in a game.

3. The locations most be amazing, beautifull and unforgetable.
Ex: Syberia's locations are simply amazing, especially the university you visit. Sometimes i wish i could study there. Myst serie has amazing locations too.
The Longest Journey also has breathtaking locations.

4. Puzzles are an important factor in each adventure game. They can't be too easy nor too tough, more like in the middle.
Ex: I find Myst games puzzles to be very very hard. In the other hand, Runaway was a preety easy game for me.

5. Music should be classic, without the music you can't feel the location of the game nor the mood. It's a really important factor.
Ex: Uru has great intrumental and peacefull music, and Monkey Island serie has a very tropical and happy tunes.

Well, thats all i can't think of. So if you haven't played an adventure game before then start right away. It will be an amazing experience...and amazing journey.

Weekends are the best days in the week, you can hang around with friends or just sit around without doing a thing . But those are summer's weekend, in College weekend you have to study and practice math. It's a pain in the back, i know but that the way of life. You have to study if you want to be someone in the future becuase life is not about doing nothing...is about working, sacrifice, keep fighting till you find the porpouse of you existence. I keep a phrase in my cell phone that says: "Keep Walking" , it's from Johnny Walker and i try to remember it becuase we can't give up. So don't worry about going slow, worry about stoping, step by step you can go anywhere you want. But remember don't stop...keep walking. Life is not easy i know, you have work harder. You are not the only one that is going through this, there are alot of people too...the difference is that while other give up you are not, becuase you are strong...strong enough to break all the barriers that come in your way.

I had alot of stress in the pass semester of college, i was studing like an animal for those finals. Having stress is a bad thing because u can't consentrate enought in your studies and it makes you forget many of the things you learned. So relax, focus in your studies, don't worry if you do horrible in the test just say: "I'm going to work harder next time" And if you don't pass a class, well...you take it the next semester. Not a big deal, becuase you have more than 60 years to pass those classes.

Conclusion: You are not the only one, there alot of people that are going through all that...and even worst. Just keep it cool and enjoy your life because you have only one. Never give up my friend! Be strong!

Have a nice day ^_^
