I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…

Monday, May 10th, 2010

Firstly, I lost time in my blog whilst I was at uni. It took up more time than I ever would have imagined and I lost who I was towards the end – thankfully it’s now over.

The first thing I’m talking about is something which I’m ashamed of. I made the huge post last time about losing weight and what has happened since? I’ve put it on! :( A whole number of factors were the cause – mainly being in Liverpool for university with no time to attend to a gym and a lack of motivation to cook resulting in junk food binges and the piling on of weight. Right now I am at my heaviest but there is one thing I can say with some certainty – it will be my heaviest ever and I will only be going down. You see all the photos of people who have lost a load of weight and they have a before shot and an after shot, well I am going to take a picture today and needless to say, it is my before shot! In a few months I will post the contrast and I want thoughts and feedback even though chances are no-one reads this. Anyway, my basic point is now it’s time and I’ve already taken my first steps on the long path.

Now the grim stuff has gone, I can update properly! Uni is over and whilst at the moment I don’t know what grade I recieved, I am glad it’s over and I have the satisfaction of finishing a course which began with over 60 people and only contained just over 10 in the final 3rd year. Just to pass I would view as a success.

Although uni is over and I’ve began work again for the company I was previously a placement student for, I don’t want to lose the coding knowledge I have stored in my brain so again, I will be posting updates of how my games are going – my first one being “Polygon Wars”. A basic Geometry Wars rip off but good practice non the less so I don’t gain any coding rust. At the same time I would like to gain some web design knowledge so will be following a number of online tutorials – again I will keep my blog posted.

I’m not really sure what else to say and I feel bad that I haven’t posted a photo or anything which make this post seem boring to view but next time I will – I’m due to watch Peter Kay on Thursday with Darryl and Jon so will blog from my iPhone and supply a few photos.

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and please leave me a comment – I’m sick of all the spam comments and would like a nice one for once :)
