We made it to Dundee 2 weeks ago - ate lots of Haggis (Love Haggis! Not thinking of what its made of while eating it definitely helps!) and tried IRNBRU for the first time (which totally taste like bubble-gum). Not only that these 2 weeks are exhausting (half a day journey from Norwich, getting to know the city of Dundee, the other teams, keeping in touch with people back home and getting shit done all at the same time) ; they are also an emotional roller coaster for me - development changes due to technical issues - having the team to adapt in a new environment & living together - getting to know our programmer - and getting our 3rd yr results!
Its been a really rough start; things are just all over the place with accommodation, software issues and most of all keeping the team together amidst the introduction of so many new things. However, we managed! and I am really proud of Lunavark, we went through every single shit thrown at us as a proper team, and head on! So proud of the guys! And now everybody seems to be back on track and our early build are looking pretty sexy thanks to our new capable and trustworthy coder, Jordan O'Hare. Many of the teams in the competition are such fun & passionate people to be around with, it is definitely a privilege to be here; its almost like a crazy dream.
We pimped out our workspace!
Showing off our quirky art work
During the first week we get school-kids visiting us and that was pretty fun. There was a girl that was constantly hugging Balzy and wanted to bring it home (aaaawwwww), and I had to break the window to both our souls and answered he with a wavering 'errr...nooo..' kids are unbelievably fragile to me, never knew when they're gonna turn berserk and start a rampage -_-
On a more recent emotional salad; I got my results for 3rd year final project and I got 83% for my BA8! Yay! its awesome until I realize that I could've done so much better if I did my essay in a proper format...so that pretty much bummed me out a little bit. Anyway, everyone else did pretty well too and we celebrated with an awesome Indian Buffet that turned us into a lazy un-moveable objects that night.
Lastly, I spent the weekend working on the first proper OST for Cosmic Couch, so I'll leave this post with this;
