10/22/2010- Day 1.

Mr. Phelps hands you a packet today in class. "It's for Blender." Ok. "You are going to have to join the wiki for the VREP class. You already have one though, so you can just use that name." Ok. "There is also a few steps in there for you to follow. To get you started." Ok.

Fast Forward. The Awesome-Jewish-Frenchman next to me is saying something about how he can't extrude the X-axis. Twice. "Wait for me to catch up." The packet is right there.You don't wait for him. "I've created a monster." Probably. You have the power to create anything. You are only limited by yourself. This is probably how God felt on His first day. Confused, fumbling and frustrated but empowered in ways you have never felt. Create anything. This is probably how the platypus came into being.

10/25/2010- Day 3

Weekend Update. I forgot my username for wikispaces. I, however, did play around with Blender. I feel more comfortable with the controls and general layout of the software. Having a right and left button for the mouse is important, I found out. I anticipate that VREP would be mostly done at home so having Macs at the high school isn't a huge set back. There are tutorials on YouTube of people trying to walk you through everything from faces to a Barrett .50 Caliber Sniper Rife.

I haven't crated anything significant as of yet.

Monkey Head.
