Hi everybody, I'm a brand new member. a little about myself. my name is Alvin and i live in Orlando, fl. i'm a Full Sail Real World Education student currently studying Game Design. in my fourth month. God somehow directed me to this website and i'm so glad You guys existed. Just the day before, I was wondering what am i doing studying Game Design. I didnt even know that the game Design program i am attending is all about programming(coding). I thought it was more art related since it's title was "Game design". So i pray to God and for Him to lead the way. For him to give me strength to have faith and he will show me the way. I would NEVER have imagined, but i want to be a Christian game coder(designer). That never cross my mind for some reason but now I know the Lord's plan for me. Thanks to God and Christian Coders Network. And also to let you guys know Orlando has the best alvin |

Hey Alvin, I was thinking of going to Full Sail, chatted quite a bit to Carma Beagle, but decided not to go this year. How is the course, i heard the first 3 months are fairly relaxed then it just goes crazy and you have hardly any time to yourself? I'll be in Florida next may on holiday! Anyways welcome to CCN bud, hope you like it as much as all of us do! --D-SIPL ------------------ |

Thanks for the welcome guys. Nice to meet you too TheManFromGanymede. to: --D-SIPL ya, that sounds about right. except if your in game design. After the second month Things go hectic right away. I cant believe i'm in on my fourth month already. it seems like yesterday. On my third month I started C++ and Entertainment Business. These two classes take up 6 days a week. 3 days are 4 hours each, the other 3 days are 8 hours each. total of 36 hours of learning and not including Home work(The homework is just reading and studying usually, but still takes up lots of time). If you want to get an A, forget about social life, otherwise u still have sometime for your self. Alvin |

quote:that radio station "Positive hits" is top notch! really, it's very nice, listening to a US radio station in UK is strange but it IS as alvin describes above, the DJ doesn't say much does he? it's jingles and CLASS music, that's it, but good to listen to BTW alvin how is it viable without commercials? (you can listen to it while posting on CCN! wehay! works like a dream) ------------------ |

TO: CHIEFY "BTW alvin how is it viable without commercials?"
the amount requested is always over exceeded. Praise God! The stations uses all the extra money on billboards and other stuff to spread the WORD. thats essentually how they run. |

Ok, I checked it too, and it is awesome! Only thing is that I kind of miss the breaks between songs, I must have been 'programmed' too much by other stations Thanks Alvin, I owe you one. |
