Unofficially the 2nd last day of school!

Hey guys!!!

So its unofficially the last day of school! Again I didn't blog the past 2 days because nothing much really happened, plus I was busy playing Spider-Man Shattered Dimension! It wasn't too bad, quite nice actually, incorporating the web zip attack from Spider-Man Web Of Shadows was a nice touch though, very useful! Fighting Mysterio was interesting considering I've never really fought against him in all his glory before, only fought him in Spider-Man 2 the movie game.

So anyway! Today was 3D modeling, the final lesson and this is what I did in school, I kinda combined version 1 and 2 to get this!.

Wall removed


Anti/evil/bad Diamondhead/Albedo/whatever


Vilgax's drone and Diamondhead


Nothing spectacular but for some reason, everyone likes it but me, I admit I do like Diamondhead's head which I did, and the "battle" arm as well as his normal arm, but other than that, not really.

So yea, I went to Youtube and was looking at the recommendation and again, I heard this song by Switchfoot!

Your Love Is A Song By Switchfoot


So yea, that's the live version. If you like it, go buy it, otherwise, errmmm... Shoo? Ok... Lame...

I was looking at Nikon's website today, as mentioned in a previous post, I might be switching in the event Olympus changes their marketing strategy. And only a few lenses state that they're sealed against moisture and dust, some I know without reading such as the 14-24, 24-70 amd the 70-200. So... What about the rest? I'm like "OMG! NO WEATHER SEALING!?". I looked at the D700 and D3/s image of the body on DPRevie, thinking back when Clubsnap Live@SAM was on, holding the D700 at the time as well as another time, and the D3s, the ergonomics were very much better than D200 and D80 of which are the only other Nikon cameras I've used and carried long enough to have an impression of. And I do like the many buttons available on the camera. HOWEVER! The important ones were not within reach of my thumb and index. Which at the same time, many buttons were at the other end of the camera, making it very difficult to do a one hand operation.

The lenses are expensive and not as heavily sealed. Optics aren't as good as the ones that I have. While the D3 and D700 felt like tanks like my E-1, my E-3 felt really durable too though not really having the same tank feeling as the D3, D700 and E-1. And in a way, I somehow feel that I can reach my potential using the current Olympus gears that I have because of the combination of weight, sharpness, image quality, ergonomics and layout. Not to mentioned that for all that, the price is lower. In a way, its perfect. I honestly and earnestly hope that the modular system will allow me to have my E-system layout and ergonomics and weather sealing to use as well as still being able to utilize my Zuiko Digital lenses in years to come.

I'm also actually considering being a photojournalist. But I have to consider very very carefully. Very soon I'll have quite a lot of things to do. Birthday shoot for my dear "sissy" on Saturday and helping my buddy Jimmo with his friend's pre wedding shoot on Sunday.

Tomorrow is the unofficial final day of school. I have to ask my lecturer for help with my flash which will be pretty quick, after which there will be presentation of project. After that I'd probably be writing in my notebook my plans and goals from now till before start of poly. And I so gotta start researching on courses and buy more books! That's all for tonight, eye getting itchy and feeling a little sleepy so good night world!
