So, i'm a little absent, but the reasons couldn't be better.
First of all, and right off the bat here... a quick thanks to you guys who gave me a hand about exercising for a Physical test for a job, and an extra one for Corel who sent me a huge PM with some great tips that i just saw last week, thus, ended up not replying! Thanks!!
I didn't get that job, but i got another one. Finally i'm an Safety Technician Intern in a very decent company. But that's just part of the good news... the other part is that the -reason- why i got the job was because of a presentation me and my team put together for our class.
We were supposed to create a presentation about Respiratory Protection for our class, and it was "Freeform" we could do anything we wanted to do. So, bored out of my mind with the current flow of the course, me and my friends decided that we would "go nuts" and do it or break it with something as much "Off the wall" as possible.
We put together a video and presented it in front of 2 classes and pretty much every single staff member and teacher in the school that day... we got a standing ovation! And i got a job with no interview, because of it (a teacher called me, and his boss saw my video.)
Now, i was going to place some English Subtitles on them, but i just haven't got the time to do it right now... but just to illustrate, they aren't necessary.
We did a Video Clip about Respiratory Protection

And this is the "Opening Video"

The full thing is on my Youtube page (Portuguese Text) and has 17min's duration.
So, this is a week where i feel like i'm kicking ass all around. Also, to let you guys know that... if you think you can do something silly, stupid and over the top but with a message in there somewhere, you just might get the right kind of attention =3
i don't have a cheesy one-liner here, but i wanted to end with this (http://ingresstech.com/~bernard/instantCSI/)
