Well, long story short--for the past two months, I've been looking for a new apartment in a certain region in New York with no success...aaaaand tomorrow's my last day with my current apartment's lease. And I'm living on less than $1000 until the next available pay period way at the end of September. Yeah... Going through a bit of a hard time, but I'm not worried. My situation could be worse, and I have confidence that things will work out soon.
Meanwhile, I've been running this effort on the side called Operation Moogle, and if you're a gamer, I urge you to check it out. Even if you're not a Final Fantasy fan, we're on the forefront of staring something new in the gaming industry--a possible new era where game developers actually ask for the gamers' voice towards developing a game.
A bit of good new is that I'm starting active development with my first indie game title. I'll need a new computer soon, though, but first, I'll need to find a new apartment before I can get a new computer. And I don't want to reveal too much about it at the moment, but as I have revealed before that it an RPG title of Japanese style, I'll further add that it will feature a third-person shooter battling engine and will be developed using the Unity game engine.
Oh, and I'm still working on my software idea, too. But I'm still holding on revealing details about it for now--it's a really good idea, and I think it'll double the 3D modeler's workflow, but I don't want anyone beating me to the punch. I want the credit of being the guy who invented it. Maybe they'll erect statues in my honor. Hehehe.
As a quick announcement--check out my new MMJ Favorites page here on this blog. I just put that up today.
Anyways, that's what's been going on. By the way, I've been thinking that the white text on black background might be a bit harsh on the eyes, so I'm trying out this softer light blue color. What do you think of it--do you like it better or not? Any suggestions, if you don't? I'd appreciate your feedback on this. Keep exploring!

Okay, Update: Life is changing on me fast!
Okay, here's a quick update on me. I'm moving to New York in September, I've got to work my butt off the find a new apartment soon (because the lease to this current apartment is over on September 1), and this has been taking a lot of my time. I've been so tired lately, staying up night after night working on this move and managing time for my projects. I also got very sick during the last two weeks, so that's slowed me down a lot, too. I was high with horrible headache pains for days, and though I'm much better now, I've still got a lingering cough with me.
Man, I was away from this blog WAY too long--longer than I attended. There's some gallery updates I need to do later. (Later because I need sleep right now!) And I've had to scrap my sharetorial video because halfway through recording videos with the screen capture recorder I was using, the video would get all messed up and the audio goes off-sync. When I settle down from this moving situation, and when I get my new computer pretty soon (a significantly more powerful computer than this computer I'm using), I will definitely give the sharetorial another shot. (And I'll probably break down an buy Camtasia, because the free ones don't seem to do the job well enough!)
One thing I am very excited for is working hard towards acquiring a developer's kit from Nintendo. That is a part of my plan as an indie game developer. The Wii U next year will launch next year, and I'd like to get to work on my long-awaited game idea as soon as possible. This console is a dream come true for my main game ideas! And it's been my dream to develop a game for Nintendo since I was about 15. I'm going to try to develop my games for the Wii U because I have ideas I'd like to do before someone else does something like them but don't do it as well as I plan to do it! I have some killer ideas that I want to deliver as soon as possible! I haven't been this excited for a console in a long time! I also have plans for a Nintendo 3DS game.
Anyways, I'm going to stop making deadlines for updating my blog, since I never seem to keep up with doing that. So just know that I want to come back to update my gallery, post another Post talking about my other websites in production, and give some news about my open-source program. I just need to sleep! And take care of other stuff concerning my moving situation.
Oh, and thanks for the 700 views so far! I promise you, folks (esp. those who return to this page periodically), that I'm going to make make the waiting of my various "projects" worth while! You'll see! I want to include you in my process in going about some of these ventures. I'll reveal more soon enough!
So I'll talk to you later. Keep explorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...[Writer falls asleep at the keyboard]
