Lots of Events

Sorry I've been gone for so long. Lots of things have been happening, but lately I've finished my Demonsration Speech on which I showed how to make origami, and I'm working on an English project about William Shakespheare's play,
The Tragedy of Julius Caesar
. I am researching if the events in the play were real or fiction.

That's all for today, and Happy Easter!

Career Speech Completed + a few other things

After hours of stress and confusion, I have finished my career speech! :) Game Design is a very hard career to gather so much info on. I've looked all around the internet, scanning documents, skimming through articles, sliding through forums. Now, it's finally over! Time to get started on yet another project, the Element Paper that I have yet to start! The project is due in mid-March so I'm safe for a while. I'm writing a fanfiction right now, called Missing Memories. This is a tale about the protagonist, a 10 year-old boy, living in an orphanage and bored of the protective life. He and three friends discover a time warp after a near-death experience, and use it to piece together each of their missing pasts, and solve an ever deeper mystery beyond time. Well, I guess I'll be hanging out with friends soon, so see you around!

Sister Receives Recommendation + Night Project Finished

Looks like my 11-year-old sister has been recommended for a summer camp for smart kids, hehe. I congratulate her but I don't show it, ha. Maybe because I'm jealous?

Anyway, I've finished my Night design project. It's a PowerPoint slide, and I've been working on the topic of Auschwitz, a Nazi concentration camp back in the 40's. I am currently working on the Career Speech now. It consists of a PowerPoint slide, and a typed outline of my career. I've yet to finish any of these, so I better get on it. See you all around!

Night Final Project Nearing It's End

I am close to finishing this project. I hope I can stay focused, be on task and actually get a good grade on this. I still have about 3 or more days until it's due, and I haven't started on the PowerPoint. I will try to finish up my research notes, start my PowerPoint, and study a little more tomorrow.

Today, all I had been doing is studying and cleaning. I need to get a lot more serious on this if I want to pass. It's a must. Well, see you all later, and wish me luck. :)

Advancement on School Projects

Well, as usual I have lots of work to do. I'm doing a project on the book Night, and I must create a Power Point on it. I love design, so I'm pretty interested. However I have projects in every other class, like this element project I'm doing in Chemistry. Chemistry can be fun sometimes but the homework is kinda eh. I also have that career speech to do too. So much work, so little time. Every project is due this month too. I guess playing video games does more than entertain you, haha.

Also the funniest thing happened today. In my AutoCAD class, we have computers to do the assignments and a Smartboard that projects a certain computer's desktop onto it. When the teacher left the computer, someone started up the game Halo on his computer, projecting it on-screen and making the whole class out of breath (if you catch my drift).

This is CJ signing off.

Blog Created & Intro of my Career. 2/11/09

Designing has always been some dream of mine, but it's up to me and destiny to fulfill it.


Hello, my name is Cameron Johnson and I have created this blog to share with friends, bypassers, corporates and many others. I am age 15, currently in high school and taking classes which I hope will improve my chances of becoming a Game Designer. I have very good writing skills and I learn everyday with roleplaying, fan-fictions, and reading others ideas and stories to see where I stand as of today. If I do not become enrolled in my career or lose interest in it, I still have my options to become a writer, author, or journalist. I play basketball when I'm bored, or thinking of ideas and I own a Wii and Nintendo DS for gaming.

Here's a pic of my Nintendo Ds Lite at the moment:



and my Nintendo Wii:



My favorite genres are RPG, Shooting, and Action/Adventure. I am currently working on a career speech to present to my Speech class in the near future.

Ever since I have started working on this speech on my career I've been trying to maximize everything I'm good at one inch at a time, like opening myself up to people I usually wouldn't talk to or trying to be more active on class discussions. On this exam I took today about the book called Night by Elie Wiesel, there were 3 essay questions I had to write about. I went all-out on them, writing about a half of a page each on two questions, and an entire page on the last one even though I didn't have to. The last question was about what the title of the book meant, and how it was connected to the Holocaust (Yes this book is about the Holocaust and how Elie survived through all the horror, pain, and suffering if you didn't know).

If you wanted to know, I'm writing a speech on Game Design. Yes, I understand what game designers do, what it takes to become one, and I'm not just trying to be some fanboy that decided one day to just make my own game to only have it be a pipe dream. What I do not know about design, I find out while researching on my subject. I went around on the internet and listened to real Game designers and their take on the whole "What do game designers do?" topic. The career speech isn't due yet, but I'm not going to slack off on it because that will be bad for my record. Even if I decide not to enter Game Design, I will hopefully be a writer, an author, or a journalist.
