It's been quite a month. I have done a whole lot of things, mostly non-flash related, which includes going to four different countries, returning back to college for this semester, finishing my part in Squeaky's STWPT collab, and soon after spontaneously deciding to goto New Orleans for Marti Gras.

Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, and Mexico was amazing. Honduras and Belize was amazingly poor and pathetic, and Guatemala and Mexico had amazing beaches. I spent a large part of my cruise with my family, dining at fancy restaurants on the ship, going to art galleries, or just hanging out in our little port room. Our first stop was in Honduras. I didn't like Honduras; the country was very dirty and just seemed to be a perfect reflection of poor-ass ghetto towns in some rural parts in Mississippi, except a little worse.

In Guatemala, we spent the duration of our stop on the beach and a little bit in a small city just outside their main port. On the beach I met a number of girls from our cruise ship and had some drinks and later played some volleyball with them. Before we left Guatemala, the winds began to pick up and we returned to the ship before some rain broke out.

Belize was much like Honduras. Instead of spending much time in their crappy cites, we went on a trek through Belize's rainforest. In the forest we jumped in the river with some innertubes and floated down into a cave system. It was a very fun experience, the only problem was how cold the water was inside the cave. Once we returned to the ship, I ran into one of the girls that I had met in Guatemala. By the end of the night, we were in the jacuzzi together.

In Cozumel, Mexico we left the ship early to go snorkeling along their beach over one of their barrier reefs. We saw TONS of fish. There were so many fish, a humongous school of them passed beneath us and we could not see the floor of the reef due to their numbers. I'm talking tens of thousands of fish here. There were so many fish that I could even reach down and touch one before they could scramble away. After much snorkeling, we retreated to a beach in Cozumel where we enjoyed free alcohol and food and relaxed until the evening. That night on the ship, I met back up with the girl and we had another romantic episode, which became more and heated as the night progressed.

The next day the cruise began its return trip, and we spent the whole day at sea. I spent most of the day with the girl having an absolutely wonderful time. Once we returned to the States, I had to immediately pack up and return to Oxford since class began the next day. Two weeks passed and I found enough time to finish my part in Squeakytoad's Songstowearpantsto Collab.

In celebration I left my apartment to eat at my university's cafeteria and met up with a couple of friend I had met a week ago. One thing led to another and I found myself driving to New Orleans for the weekend for Marti Gras that very night. The six hour drive to New Orleans was long and tiresome, but well worth it. Marti Gras was at the very least, a kick ass experience. The most memorable parts in my time there was nearly getting into a fight with some jerkoff on Bourbon Street, seeing Hulk Hogan in person on one of the balconies, and kissing a very hot girl who was dancing the night away while she was completely naked in one of the clubs. Oh yes, it was a very wonderful time indeed.

A heads up on future plans: I have another animation in the planning stages. As of right now, don't expect anything from it for a good while. Also, after seeing LazyMuffin's success with his Nameless Game, I have been inspired to develop a flash game. I have already begun developing the game's engine. Unfortunately, no further details can be given out at this time.

Sounds like you had a lotta fun! I loved your "Tonails" animation, by the way.

Indeed. Thanks. And hopefully soon, Squeaky will finish compiling the collab and submit it within the next couple of weeks. I can't wait to see how it goes in the portal.
