Personal Knowledge

I'm a rising senior at university. I'm in the process of applying to go on to a a PhD program in psychology. My one word of advice for all you youngsters out there... know what you want to do. Everywhere you go people seem to emphasize how there is no rush and it doesn't matter knowing what you want to be when you grow up, yadda yadda. It's a lie. If you want the best opportunities, if you want to put yourself in the best position to succeed, you need to know what you want to do early and start working towards that goal as soon as you can.

Hey blizz when I've finished my game design course can i move in with you?

Not my name on the lease. Talk at Dave.

I've done game development literally since I was four years old. It's the only thing I've done for long enough to know that I like it. In fact, maximo and I are putting out our own CCG (hopefully) later this year.

I've also had stints in Retail, and that can work as a temporary (Or even long-term) career, since I have such an affinity for rising quickly into leadership positions. I've been offered a number of management positions with a number of different companies, so I figure that'd work well. I've also gotten a ton of experience with computers, Networking, and Home Theater, and I could probably fix computers or get a job in IT if I wanted to.

Beyond that, I've pursued a career in radio (Both production and on-air), and I freakin' love doing radio.

My affinity with writing lends well to writing, and I'd love to be a novelist, or perhaps technical writing.

Finally, my grandfather used to work for Lockheed Martin as an engineer, and if I gave a shit about engineering, I could likely pursue a career doing that.

As for what I *want* to do, probably game design/development. I'm good at it, and I have fun doing it, so that's my first passion.

Is maximo registered on this forums with a diferent username? Or he isnt registered?

Maximo is an old-timer. You can find his account on the old forums. If I remember correctly, he left because he got married and it was time to move on.

He drops in from time to time to test the card game on the IRC.
