[TL;DR version: BRB, my computer sucks, and game class is trifle]

Dear Newgrounds,
I am sorry that I have left you in negligence for so long, it is not in my nature to leave for an extended period of time without at least acknowledging your existence from time to time. TBH, I don't even think I voted on any submission in the past two months as a result of a nasty computer infestation which left me without internets for almost a whole week. My ISP shut me down, seeing me as a threat to other users on the network because of the abundance of trojans, viruses, and just nasties which roamed through my computer. I went to the store and bought an anti-virus software, something I've been meaning to do since I got my laptop two years ago, and because McAfee sucks ass IMO. After a while, I was able to get access to the internet, and downloaded some software updates which allowed me to clean a significant portion of my computer, but some stuff still remains somewhere in my temporary files.

It wasn't until about a week or two ago that I was hit yet again, but this time I had gotten some rather severe infestation, likely a trojan or something. Let's just say my computer sucks total ass at just 1.5GhZ and only 16 or so gigs left of HDD space on it, not to mention infected with what I believe to be a keylogger as well. I don't usually get paranoid about this security stuff, but recently I haven't felt very safe using my computer when accessing Newgrounds or other places. I also have ignored my Flash for quite a while, but I gave up on doing anything anytime soon a while ago. Reason being that it is of the strain it takes on my computer. When I am able to afford a higher-end PC, I will make a commitment to try and get better at Flash, among other things.

Currently enrolled in a game design class at my 'Early College' high school, and I'm kicking total ass in it. We are asked to design a game with the Greenfoot software, and take a look at how video games are made. Now, the limitations of the program are much, much, higher than that of Flash 8 or whatnot, and all I can say is that my game will most likely blow hard donkey cock; and if it were a Flash, I'd vote zero on it and you would too. This course was set up by the state university to see that if this class would augment our Math scores on the standardized test given out by the state every year or so. The test just so happens to begin on my birthday, which is just fan-fucking-tastic.

Not that I dislike programming or anything, but it's just that I don't believe that taking the course would have any impact on my mathematical skills, since the majority of the work that comes in the game class is copying+pasting source code from existing games and just changing a few variables around. Doesn't sound too hard, but it is a bit demanding when you're the star pupil in the class.

My main rival is a tall dude with really greasy skin, and a vegan member of Peta2 or something like that. We're friends and all, but I've just become a bit annoyed at the whole vegetarian movement he's spread and pushed throughout the high school. Not only that, but he is getting LOADS of ass thrown at him from all sides when he became a veghead, including that chick I've had a crush on since last year. Oh well, can't please everyone I suppose...I'd never give up eating meat, not even if it guarantees me some action or a date, because I can't be bothered to.

: Yes it is the same girl and those of you who know what she's into: I have reason to believe that she's gone all out on her 'interest'. Why is it that all the cute girls are always sellouts...? I'll never understand.

I would also like to apologize to anyone who may have missed me, but I doubt very little of you know me at all. When I finish my course, I will try to post the game so that you may witness the monstrosity and abomination which is my Greenfoot game.

BRB, like when I get a better computer and shit, expect something from me soon afterwards.
