I believe that I have SVN set up so we all can use it. Seems like Nate can commit changes and I assume that Jon can too. So my next goals are dedicated to get some more documentation written. I want to get a How to on HowTo use SVN from the command line. I also want to flesh out the Tortoise HowTo a little bit more. Then I will work on my little text rpg side project. Which I'm doing so I can get some good practice with C++. I also need to get the Mod project files imported into the SVN project and then start on the basic code layout for the Mod.(Which I have no idea how to do)

Well I didn't make my deadline. I hate being lazy. Now I'm not going to have as much time to get things finished, since I have homework to do now.
I did manage to get a bit more of my hard drive cleaned up and half of the C++ stuff done. I also think that I have gotten the Subversion set up and I plan to write up a guide to use it tomorrow along with getting the project files in there.
Now I have to come up with more goals and a new date to get them finished by.

Since school was canceled till the beginning of next week I've been able to push back my due date and I'll hopefully get a few more things finished. Today I managed to get Ubuntu installed on my main pc along with the apps and programming languages that I'll need. I won't ever be totally finished with this since I'll need to install more stuff as I find it. I still need to configure conky and install an ati driver, xgl, and beryl. I also started looking up some C/C++ so I've begun that as well. But since TBC was released today I imagine that I won't be getting as much of that done as I'd hope for.

I'm creating a second blog to talk about our mod stuff. I plan to post blurbs on things I'm working on with it and just give brief updates to the goals we are working on. All of my personal stuff will stay on the other one.

Life goes on and usually in too big of a hurry. I guess the biggest thing to happen recently is that a guy that I used to drink with and that I've worked with on the stock crew since I started my tenure at Dillions shot and killed himself on Friday morning (01/05/05). I won't go into any more details because the story only gets sadder.
In other less depressing news I've gotten roughly about 60% of the things on my to do list finished already. Looking at it now I doubt I'll be able to finish all of them by next Tuesday, but I'm really going to try. I'm hoping to have everything but some of the more advanced C++ stuff done by then.
Now with the New Year here I guess its time for some longer term goals (i.e. New Year's Resolutions). The main goal I want to get to this year is taking better care of myself. I will be finishing college this May and using that excuse isn't going to cut it anymore. So I plan on eating right (not perfect, but more right than I have been), and exercising some what regularly. Till May it'll be mostly running I figure and then after than maybe some gym time and hopefully some hockey.
A few other goals I have are to get this mod up and going and finished... ok so maybe not finished. I also want to get more hobby programming going. I'd like to set up some web space to host my projects and that'd give me a place to work on more webby type stuff. Plus I also want to have some time to work on an old school RPG ala Dragon Warrior 1. I have some (what I think are) good ideas for it and the games that will follow, but we'll just have to see what will pan out.
And finally I want to make sure to do one of these a week even if it is some little dinky post just saying "Hey, I didn't do anything this week."
Hopefully that isn't too much to ask of myself, but considering that in 6 months I'm going to have to move and find a real job it could put some extra strain and stress and push those goals to the back of my mind.
We shall see...
