Good news… at least some good news. I did not play the whole day! Just the whole evening. I speant most of the time today with “real life” activities, such as working on a small film project with my brother and drawing a new map for my fantasy world. The film is going to be really good, and I really like my brother´s talent in movie making – he wrote a whole screenplay on his own and he´s also an amazing editor. I feel honored to be an “actor” in his little film project. The map I was talking about before, is a new version. Yesterday I tried to create onw without planning anything. Well, it looked nice, but there was no concept behind it and so I wasn´t really satisfied. So afterwards (yesterday, very late in the night) I made some cluster and collected  all my ideas, wrote them down and put them in an order. Basing on this idea collection I drew a new “raw” map today, using ink and pencil. It´s a basic thing, which I will post-edit on the pc, using Photoshop. That will include for example adding colours, or the most essential thing on a map: names of rivers, mountains, seas, cities and so on. I also got some really nice ideas today while listening to Tool, but I won´t release them. I want to keep this concept secret until it is published (IF it is published anyways). But surely I will do some artworks to illustrate my fantasy world, and I think there is no problem in showing them to you. But first of all I have to MAKE those artworks. So far the creative part of the day.

I also spent (again) a lot of time playing. As you already have read, I finally unlocked all items of Recon, Assault and Medic in BC2. It was exhausting, but now I finally have all that stuff. The only class missing is Engineer.  Sometimes it´s really fun to play Engineer but he´s also very boring sometimes. And he completely doesn´t work on pure infantry maps. Well, some would say, that shooting an RPG on infantry also works, but this is absolutely idiotic and stupid, cause this proves you are too bad, to handle normal weapons. Well, so far from the battlefield.

I wish you a good night. I´m going to watch another episode of “The Tudors” (Season 3) now – I already watched one today, but the suspense is killing me… Maybe I´ll also have some new ideas now, that I need to bring down on paper. Or I´ll read something. It´s all a matter of randomness. See you!
