The summer is over, both in my mind and in the weather, which signals to me, for one reason or another, that it’s time to restart or pick up new hobbies that have been on vacation.
This week, I have already started one, which is to continue my NHL09 (released in 2008 so I’m 3 years behind now) season. In NHL09 there is a “Be A Player” mode where you can create a player to develop through juniors and into the NHL. I had stopped halfway through my second year (where I had already graduated into the NHL with the Leafs) but am not continuing my season. My version of the Leafs are horrible (way worse than real life, and some other teams have made amazing trades to stack themselves) but they called up a star prospect from AHL so they should make it into the playoffs! I forget why I stopped playing previously, but hopefully my return to it is not due to excitement about the upcoming hockey season and I will be able to complete a season or two this year.
I’m also going to start working on my Android apps again (soon, probably). I am up to 6 apps now so I don’t think I should start new ones, although two of them (UDA and Yummy Chinese) aren’t really beyond alpha stage. Right now, I’m more inclined to improve my existing apps, and I think I will work a bit on my VIVA Next Bus app. I rather like this one, perhaps it is because it was my first app, but also maybe because it is a constrained problem.
