How have you ladies and gentlemen been passing your summer time? Personally I plan on getting a part time job to not only help gather money but to keep myself occupied away from home.
How are you guys having/passing your summer?

In early June I was grounded. from June 17 to about the 22nd I went and stayed with my cousins in New Mexico. It was kind of like a family reunion because a party was going to be there. The party was for my oldest cousin, Who is graduating from high school. All of my younger cousins and I played Animal Crossing together. It was pretty fun. From the 24th to the 29th I was at the Texas A&M basketball camp(overnight). We even got to stay in the same dorms as the athletes. The weird part is that I enjoyed the food most. It was GOOD. Since then I have been lying around,doing nothing.I have been playing tennis lately though .An interesting thing though I believe I am half nocturnal because i'm active during the PM and early AM(1-3 am)times.

Well, in case you didnt know, I'm a boyscout  And I've been really busy working on my Eagle Project. If everything goes according to plan, the project will be done before the 26th of this month. Which reminds me, I'm not gonna be on until later on tomorrow, cuz I'm having a lot of work done for my Eagle Project. Then on the 26th, I'm going to on Vacation down to Daytona Beach Florida. Down there, I'll be relaxing, going to Disney Parks and Universal Islands of Adventure. And maybe even some deep sea fishing! ;D So yeah, on the subject of me being in florida. I'll be leaving on the 26th for an 18 hour car drive. I might not get much of a chance to come here because the condo down there has no internet. But there is a library with computers and internet down there, where I can just ride my bike down and check up on things here and Newgrounds. Well, thats my summer. |

I've been having a pretty good summer so far I guess.. I went to Mexico on a trip with my school from June 19th - 27th. We flew to Mexico City first and traveled all down the Gulf of Campeche in this big bus with poor air conditioning, until we eventually ended up in Cancun, which is where we flew back from. It was a lot of fun..and the people I went with were hilarious! The only thing that really bothered me was the heat..and the bus drives that we took every day ranging from 2 - 9 hour drives.. But besides Mexico, I have just been looking for a job..and being unsuccessful.  So I play video games all day instead! And other than that..I don't know how my summer is gonna go. We might go to a beach here soon, but work comes in for dad at random times so I don't know if that will happen or not. |

I guess I'm just a one language type of guy. But I just finished Spanish 2 in highschool this year, so I wont have to worry about it anymore. Also, my GPA will go up this year, cuz I put in more computer classes. (future video game maker here) |

rb_bran you think you dread it? I have to learn it. The population of my town it 98% hispanic. I guess it will be alright though because all the people I know(hispanic people) only know basic spanish. Oh well I am doing a program teaching me spanish during the day.

But, responding to that other post, I would like to make shooting games, like Halo style or maybe MMORPG's like WoW or Diablo 2. I also like RTS's like Age of Empires and starcraft. |

I hate those games that say that and you can't even run over a tree with a tank!! Or you can't run over a fence |

When I get a job making games, the first thing I want to make is an adventure game. I hate how in every adventure game you HAVE to do everything exactly as the game designers want you to. You can't just hop over the fence and skip the fighting. NO! You have to go around the fence and fight the boss. I'm gonna make a game where you CAN do anything. Heck you'll even be able to not even do anything. Just live a life on the game, never fight anyone. It will be like WoW, but with even more things you're able to do. ^that up there was my dream when little. Then I realized that it would take 5 years to even come close to finishing it. Oh well. I'll make some great game some day. |
