Better late than never.

It has again been far too long since I posted anything here. I've either been too busy or too lazy to get write anything. But now the wee hours of night are drawing near and my focus is becoming clear and I have nothing to do in the morning (at least I hope I don't!). So I'll just ramble about... stuff.

So I just graduated from high school a pair week ago. Not really a monumental event for me. I don't feel "Grown Up" or whatever people expect when they graduate. My parents didn't get me a car... or a driver's license, for that matter! But I'll live. Happily. Happily in my own grumpy way. I'm enjoying the relaxation while it lasts, though. I start up college next Monday, the 29th. I'm very excited but really scared too. I just pray my nerves won't shatter on me. I'll be taking English 101 and Pre-Calc II. So it's really a brush-up quarter. Nothing too new, just getting me ready and reminded about those things. A

That seems to be all for now. I have some ideas for future blog posts, so don't forget about this too soon. Though do keep in mind that school will have a higher priority than this, so I may not have time. I'll be done in August, though. So if I disappear, fear not, just post a comment in August and I'll try to get something written up.

First post in ages

Wow, it's sure been a while since I last made a blog (silly word, blog is, sound like something you'd find in a spooky marsh), and so much has happened, I wonder how many people still visit....
For starters, it's a new year! Happy New Year, peoples! And Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Good Freodinalliak day (Don't bother looking it up)!

We're finally over our dreadful winter snow storms (I hope?), which totally slammed us in december, and lots of rain since. The rivers are only now getting back to their proper size. Most of them were flooded over. Glad I live on a hill.
In more personal (but not so much so as to bore anyone) news, I've recently gotten quite a lot written about 7,000 words over 3 days (yay for winter break and vacation!). I also have a big basket of chocolate on my desk, which I snitch from every few minutes or so.
Tomorrow marks the one-week memorial of the Death of vacation (Let's have 30 seconds of respectful silence, in loving memory), but that only means my creative juices are all the more anxious to escape. And that leads me to the actual reason I sat down to this blog: Pictures! Nah, just kidding. They're only renders. I stayed up until midnight working on this last night, which was stupid since I had Soundboard duty at church this morning.
Without further ado, here they are:

Sphere

Ring

Those are my first non-fail (imho) cg/photo composition. In the unlikely case you couldn't tell, the copper ball/ring is the fake part. Be sure to zoom in close, and you'll be able to make out the reflections. That was the hard part, and the whole point. Feel free to tell me it's stupidly simple. I'll agree with you, pat your back, and give you a kiss. *oops* Chocolate kiss.... From the candy basket.... Oh forget it.
