*WEEKLY ELECTION UPDATE*
So, I went to the ER yesterday due to me screwing up my knee. Thats right, I got injured playing ultimate...
Also, check out my newest blog, it has images I created using Terragen (will update it randomly)

*END OF UPDATE*
There is an amazing program that exists on the Internet. It is a program that allows you to create your own terrain, and in its later form, it allows you to populate it with plants and animals. I am, of course, talking about terragen. This program is so advanced that it has been used to make the scenery in Beyond the Limits and Stealth (movies) and several video games.
Terragen is an amazing program, yet it annoys me in several ways. I can never get the clouds to look right (look at the images I have posted), I can never get the water to be good, and I can not sculpt worth well. I will spend hours sitting there just trying to get the slope down to the water right, getting the clouds right, and getting the terrain to look like it has grass/mud/rock/moss/peat on it. This is a huge problem for me, and this alone surprises me. After all, I am a very lazy person; I will do my homework sloppily and at the last moment, I can not write neatly, and I do not have a clear workspace (ask anybody who has ever seen my room). How is it then that I care so much about these images?
I have noticed that most people I would label as carefree actually are perfectionists. They want certain things to be perfect, and then everything else they deem to be unimportant. That is how we are able to justify our selective perfectionism. Well, it turns out that I seem to be a perfectionist. It is funny how perfectionism crops out off of nowhere, something that would not seem inherent in my personality, and something that is not obvious to most people. This is what really annoys me, when people have hidden personality traits.
As always, please leave any comments, no matter how large or how small about the contents of this blog post. Also, please leave any comments/suggestions about this site/post as a whole.
