22nd September 2012

Admittedly today I have done very little towards my  dissertation other than play some games paying close attention to the animations used. As I've mentioned before (i think) i was going to look at a few Rockstar games as they all are fairly similar with slightly varying characters and so should react differently right?

Yesterday i started to arrange a meeting with both Lynn and Robin to discuss my ideas though. I'm not sure which of them would be more appropriate so why not get two opinions right? Chances are i won't be able to meet them at the same time.

There's another reason i haven't done all that much. I have a childlike excitement for my birthday tomorrow and so I've been a little unfocused and when attempting to do something useful I've failed.. chances are tomorrow i may be the same but then I'll come back with a new found drive on Monday. I was considering having Sunday's and Wednesday's off so i keep my sanity anyway.

Oh and looking at other peoples blogs is making me jealous that i have very few pictures... i'll need to sort that.
