As everybody knows, today was Halloween. People know today even better as the day that you get free candy. Naturally, I decided to go out and get some myself. This time, my dad let me go a little farther than usual. I ended up getting about 3 pounds of goodies! For a person used to getting 15-20 pieces, that's pretty incredible. For my costume, I was lazy and just put on my fencing gear. That was actually a very good choice. It was around 30 degrees outside. That stuff is thick enough though, that I was able to maintain a comfortable body temperature. I was going to go out as something along the lines of 'My Dog Ate My Homework'. But we were having a hard time keeping the stuffed dog attached to the paper. After I got through gloating over my hoard, I went upstairs, and took a math test.

There has also been another event in the past few days that I've neglected to mention: My Mom's birthday. I think she turned, well... *subject change* As a present, I decided to make her a nice little computer game. Seeing as she enjoys fall-related things, I chose to base the game around that. You play as a little girl wandering through a corn maze seeking the perfect pumpkin, picking up fall leaves along the way. Sounds kinda boring, but for a person who avoids computer as much as possible, it's pretty neat. I decided to make it more interesting for me by making it isometric. For those of you GM users out there, you know how difficult that is to do. I also decided to put in a nice little day-night engine to take the place of a timer. You have to have found the pumpkin and be out of the maze by dark. Here are some pics of the game:

That's all for now.
