-Removed the following from Projects, and updated the content.
I have worked on projects of different topics over the last five years of my educations - mainly because of the International Baccalaureate Program that I was in. (aside: if you ask someone to spell baccalaureate and he/she can spell it correctly for you, then he/she is probably in such a program)
In high school, they're mainly science labs, and miscellaneous stuff - except for one big computer science project that has ~100 pages of documentation. You may also want to try I have a crush with Vincent - a fun little game.
Programming
And then I come to Simon Fraser University, and most of my time is spent on working on computing science assignments or projects assigned by professors - many of them are really interesting. However, that doesn't mean that I no longer spend extra time on working on extra projects.
Example: , , and
3D Graphics
The projects that I like the most are those that employ 3D graphics.
I am sure there are more to come in higher level graphics courses, but
so far, the assignments / self-starting projects I worked on are already
very visually pleasing.
Notably, 3D Room Scene was showcased in SFU computing science Employer's Open House 2003.
Fun Projects (High school
level projects..)
These are miscellaneous things that I've created over the last few years
for different occasions when I was in high school. Some are silly (who
would want my "Yes
Card" -__-), but some I hope are useful for other people. I
spent considerable amount of effort on Flash - but I think it has become
so commonplace that it's not something special anymore :(.
I also spend considerable amount of time playing with photos using photoshop. I might put some of my work in photoshop later.
