10 Things For The Earth

There are many things you can do to help the Earth today. Here are some examples that I do to make this world a better place.

1. Compost, it helps the soil get back its nutrition rather than wasting it in the trash.

2. STOP littering, many animals die just from people who litter.

3. Garden, it is good for the Earth & our body, plus it eliminates packing & shipping.

4. Recycle, it helps the environment more than you would ever know by persevering our natural resources, plus it stops filling land fills.

5. Ride your bike instead of driving will stop pollution from gas.

6. Save energy, turn off lights, unplug electronics if your not using them, because its burning too much CO2. Use solar panels.

7. Eat a vegetarian diet at the very least even better if you eat raw vegan because its saving rain forests & stops polluting the water. To read more click HERE

8. Stop using toxic cleaners that pollutes your water.

9. Stop junk mail, it kills more and more trees.

10. Shop for long lasting things.

Game Designers, Programmers, and Artists.

Do you ever want to make a video game? Well, if you do there are three jobs that you can work at. They are called: Game Designers, Programmers, and Artist. If you like making ideas coming to life, you could be a Game Designers. If you like math, I would recommend you be a Programmer. If you like to draw I would recommend you to be a Artist. I would like to be a Game Designer, because I like thinking about things coming to life.

To become a Game Designer you would need two years of collage. Game Designers with three years or less of experience can earn up to $46,000 a year, three to six year of experience can earn you $55,600 a year, with six years or more of experience you can earn up to $70,000 a year. Designers mostly come up with the ideas, the story plot, the characters, and evil villiains. Game Designers is most like the leader.

Game Programmers learn to code the games. They learn the language of computers like C++, C sharp, Java, Flash, and C. C++ is the best thing for a game programmer to learn. C++ is the most popular language. Programmers need 4 years of collage to ge the job. Three years or less of experience gets you $50,000 a year. Three years to six years of experience earns you $66,000 a year, and with six years or more of experience earns you $88,000 a year.

A Game Artist usually deals with 2D and 3D graphics. It takes two years of collage to become a game artist. To become an Art Director you need 6 six of collage. Game Artists with three years or less of experience can earn you $42,000 a year. With three to six years of experience can earn you $66,000 a year, and with six years or more can earn you $64,000 a year.

The game industry isn't that big. The biggest comanies are Japan, the USA, Canda, and the UK in that order. The first video games were made in 1960s and 70s. I would recommend my report to people who want to become a Game Designer, Programmer, and Artists.

Maple Story

Maple Story is an online computer game that I play. I play it almost every day. It's like the game runescape.com, but I think it's better. Maplestory has jobs like magician, warrior, pirate, archer, and thief. You can only pick one of these jobs. I picked magician. For magician there is Fire/Poison wizard, Ice/lighting wizard, and Celeira wizard. I picked fire/poison wizard. You start at level 1 like any other game. The highest level you can get is 200. 177 is the highest level I have seen. First you go on the website called Nexon.net and download Maple Story. The time depends on how fast your computer or laptop is. After the download is complete, you will click the i-con "start game". Your screen will go black and it will pop up.

Guitar Lessons

I've had 5 guitar lessons with Bob. Bob makes it fun to play the guitar. I see him every Friday at 4:00 p.m. I am amazed what I have learned so far.

My first lesson was February 6, 2009. I learned 3 chords: A7, D, and G.

My second lesson was to make the 3 chords sound clearer. I learned the C chord, which is the hardest for me to remember.

My third & fourth lesson were together. I learned 3 riffs from: "Ska8r Boi", "Iron Man", and "Hey There Delilah".

My fifth lesson was to learn a riff from "Sunshine Of Your Love." This was a super famous song, so famous it's on Guitar Hero! It's a lot harder on a real guitar. Bob said I need to make my songs connect together.

I have fun playing the guitar. I hope you enjoyed what I've learned so far. I hope to be the best guitarist who ever lived. You can see my progress on my YouTube page.

Here is a video of me practicing what I've learned so far!

New Drawing

I love doing Japanese animation. I am learning form a special kit called " Faber-Castell Manga"

I finished this drawing today. It took a long time to do this drawing. It is a book called Naruto vol. 22. I read that I this was the cover.

This is a drawing that I did a couple months ago. The E stands for evil. This is an Japaneses animation drawing.

Guitar Practice- Lesson 1

Last Friday, I started taking guitar lessons again. This time I have a new instructor named Bob. My last instructor stopped teaching because he became ill. I received an electric guitar for Christmas a couple of years ago. I just got a music stand, tuner, guitar book, and a foot stand. The book I am learning from is called " Guitar Method 1". Bob said that this book would help me play all different styles and that I would learn faster if I studied chords first. Some advice that Bob gave me was to tune my guitar every day since I had not had it tuned in a long time and it kept wanting to go out of tune. He said I wouldn't need new strings. He told me to play whenever I wanted and that he wanted it to be fun. I meet up with Bob once every week. It would be so much fun to learn how to play "Meant To Live" By Switchfoot. I would want to play that song all day.

Family Day

On Sunday, I went to see "Phantom Of The Opera"and tried Vegan Ethiopian food with my family. I was with Dad, Mom, and Mehgan. It was also the day of the super bowl. My dad realized it after he bought the tickets.

When we arrived at the restuarant we were seated at a small basket like table with a platter in the middle. The waitress poured warm water to wash our hands over a bowl.The food was weird to me, because a huge buckwheat pancake covered the entire platter. The bread was used as a plate and to eat off. We broke off pieces of the pancake with our hands and used it to scoop up the veggies and lentils rather than using any utensils. I drank fresh orange juice, while Mehgan had mango juice. It was almost like a smoothie. We ordered a zucchini and chickpea dish. We had baklava for dessert.

Next we were off to the Pantages Theater to see a play called "Phantom Of The Opera". This has been my favorite play so far. The movie and the play were really different. . Mehgan didn't like "Phantom Of The Opera" because she thoguht it was scary. It was shorter than I thought it would be, but I had fun.

Snowboarding

Today I went snowboarding. There was one thing that went wrong I hurt my wrist on a slope. I got hurt by going off a little jump and fell on my hand. My mom has wrist guards, and I will try it next time. Otherwise, I had fun through rest of the day. Mehgan almost flew down the mountain and the only thing that saved her was a rope. We said "Today a is bad day for snowboarding." We have 4 more times to go snowboarding. My dad was great today. He was better today than last time.

Playing at the Gym

This is me and my friends doing some tricks. These are all my friends doing some awesome flips. I wish I can do some of the stuff that they can do, but I will someday. I didn't make this video my friend made it. This is his Youtube site.
