LiveJournal: Writers Block

What is one thing you struggle to describe?

Live Journals Writer’s Block

The internal functioning of the human mind and its processing of information.

I know how my head generally works so I’ve got a base of whats to be described

but to actually put it into words… I generally find the only way I can express it is through computer code. The way I talk of how I think is closer to how one might describe issues of implementing a memory manager unit (MMU) and a scheduler. Because for what little I know of them at the conceptual level is a lot more then I know about psycho-babel for describing thinking ^_^

I think the internal workings of computers are also a fair analogy to the human mind. GOD created our minds in his own assembly language, so why not describe it in our own terminology?

What did you dream about last night?

Oddly enough a subject on my mind lol, dreams :

At first, the pilot of a ‘Mech on some sort of commando run. Like a cross between the RX-78-2 Gundam and a VF-1 Valkyrie. I remember I ended up walking into an ambush, knocked out half of the enemies flight pods but trying to retreat back to cover. Resulted in a pair of Gundam Sandrock like ‘Mechs piloted by famous magicians trying to make minced metal of my ‘Mech, each with dual heat-sickle swords in hand.

Closed in and took them down point blank with Hyper Bazkooka, Shield, and Beam Sabre.. What an odd way to deal with the threat lol. Get close and get “in your face” with a bigger weapon <_<
After that it changed to a DOOM like setting in FPS mode. I remember coming to the end of a corridor over looking an area with several small structures with zombies, deamons, and imps in infantry formations on guard. I remember jumping and doing the walking in/out of sight trick to pick off enemies using the Super Shotgun (double barreled), the trusty chain gun and plasma rifle.

Strangely I find myself often dreaming about games. Especially stuff in the light of SOCOM, Syphon Filter, and Raven Shield / GRAW / SWAT. The Doom, Quake II/IV, Aliens, and various others of course making the rounds too.

I must admit though, I find the issue of programming and the graphical work involved (code wise) for such games quite fascinating. But sadly to complex and time intensive for me to study on my own :

What are your New Year’s Eve plans?

Hmmm…

Stuff my face with food (two days of family semi-feast’ish eating hehe)

Blast the music (via headphones when others are near)

Nuke some tangos and rescue hostages with teammates

Code 🙂

And get home work done.

Nice NY eh? Well I’m not actually complaining loool

I’ve actually got almost 3 back tests ready to be sent in for grading.. I’m gettinmg that bloody High School Diploma if I’ve gotta kick myself through it… The working hours are level enough that I can actually do home work now lol. And without having to worry so much…

2008 can’t be a worse year then those that have gone before, the worst events of my life might be classifiable in the 2006-2007 range but the best probably 2004-2005 and even the worst times… Not really that bad compared to some people. I can’t help but wonder what growth and learning the future may offer and the dreams that follow them.

I also wonder just how much ‘alike’ in its own way things might have been back in 1908 in regard to various events and happenings.

What kind of games do you play?

Most of them are, good or bad, fun or horrible a like… My memory is just like that =/

A choice of one, would only be which one my brain recalls first.

Tell us your current favorite: book, movie, CD, video game.

Book:

The Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zahn, Mara Jade is definitely my favorite charactor in Star Wars and watching, uhh reading. The Thrawn Trilogy and Duology, my favorite parts are the relationship between Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade. Grand Admiral Thrawn is also one of a good example of a decent commander, especially for an imperial…

Movie:

I’d say I probably like to many movies to be able to honestly nail it on any specific one now. I generally enjoy Comedy, Science Fiction, and Action movies as well as Classics.

CD:

N/A, haven’t boughten any CD’s in ages, I don’t really follow music… If I had money odds are it would go for a mixture of Country, Rock & Roll, and Metal….

Video Game:

SWAT3, the best of the best. I’ve yet to meet a better Tactical FPS Game then SWAT3. The net code blows but the game play is just freaking awesome

If you won $100 this afternoon, what would you do with it?

Hmmmmm, probably bank it for next months bills. If I had $100 laying around and nothing to spend it on, I’d probably find some one that needed help with money or get setup on paypal and send it [SAS}’ward.

My incomes basically $0 until December… so I wouldn’t mind finding $100 on the side of the street :/
