Dramatic New Scenes...
Wow, what a busy few days. There's still more Art of Otaku stuff to do (for the CD release), OB-related stuff, Nintendo GameLink and some changes over at N-Sider. It's interesting though, I think I am starting to enjoy online stuff a little more now.
Speaking of Nintendo GameLink, I recently discussed the idea with Cory (er, the guy who owns N-Sider). He was really interested and seemed very enthusiastic about the idea. I have been spending some time talking to people, because it's helped me to come up with some ideas and concerns that I may not otherwise have noticed. As you can see from that concept image, the page is coming together, although obviously there is still plenty to do. What you see there is the page that appears when you aren't logged in, but it will have a variety of different options for logged-in users. Should be interesting.
At the same time as all of this, I need to work on a site for Velegant Design. That will be the site through which Justin and I do freelance jobs together. We've been working as a team for such a long time that it seems to work out really well. Once that's done, there are a few jobs in the pipeline for the both of us. So that'll be a nice bonus on top of what I'm doing now.
There was something I was going to mention in this post, but I completely forget what it was. Oh well. I'll get straight to the comments.
Mimmi-chan: Considering that I can be forgetful (it's the video games), I still find it amazing that I remembered. But it's hard to forget a Mimmi request, afterall. ~_^
CosmicSailor: Hm, I don't know why the Gold Coast ones won't work. Bah. I really enjoyed sunbaking on that beach when there were fewer clouds. I'm still proud of my nice tan. ~_^
Anyway, yeah, I would not be surprised to hear about the engine noise from the jet. It was about as loud as an F1 car (that is, an F1 car passing you when you're trackside). There are few things on Earth I've heard that would be louder than an F1 car. Ouch. But wearing ear plugs really defeats the purpose of going to the Grand Prix, in my humble opinion.
Of course, I'm half-deaf as a result of loud music. So following my advice on aircraft or vehicle noise is probably going to harm your health.
Desbreakfast: Hahah, next time I pass it, I will see if I can stash it under my jacket for you. ~_^
"Hey, Deb, I have a banana under my jacket. You want?"
Ahem, anyway. People say that my laugh makes me sound like a mischevious child who has just done something wrong. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. *cringes at the laugh in the video*
Liam: Half-half. I actually didn't use the camera too much, I mostly just enjoyed my time there. My sister and I went swimming twice and each time it was beautiful - the water was the perfect temperature.
Aaryanna: The Gold Coast airport is really tiny, it's more regional than anything else. The 737 is the largest plane that actually visits it. So perhaps for that reason, the security isn't as tight.
Of course, the security there is so lax that you could easily stand by the fence and shoot planes down if you wanted to. But in a way, I'm glad that it hasn't become like Area 51...I'm glad that you can sit by the fence on a balmy night and watch aircraft fly right over your head. In an odd way, it's very magical.
SunfallE: Wow, you had a Kiss mobile down there? That's awesome. Now, if only it were actually made of chocolate...
Anyhoo, as I mentioned, the buildings get progressively stranger as you go further north from Melbourne. Stranger in a kind of plasticky sense, not in a genuinely strange sense. If that makes...sense. Ahem.
Yeah, I'll stop now.
indifference: My pleasure! Luckily my 'net hasn't been too annoying lately, which is good.
I hope you had a fun thanksgiving. We don't celebrate that here, but I hope that all of the Americans who do celebrate it had a great holiday.
