Lifeline Timeline


Grand optimism,
A great support of friends,
Family—
It can help me get by.

 

Great pessimism,
High influence,
Enemies—
Hopefully it doesn’t go that way.

 

Some legitimate program,
A form of credibility,
And, if it can matter at all,
Popularity of the school.

 

Attempting all four years,
Paying off debts,
Bachelor of Arts—
Last one seems to be worth it.

 

Pulling all-nighters,
Comprehending coding,
Meet the criteria—
Situations to meet at chance.

 

Need seven hours,
A clear, open mind,
Par passing grade—
Hopefully I can get by.

 

I really cannot guarantee anything—
All hell can go loose.
But if everything goes right,
Something of positive influence might happen.

 

Design documents,
Design documents,
Thirty-minute break—
How long will it take?

 

Design documents,
Hours on sketching,
Using gaming engines—
It’s only the beginning.

 

I already know nothing’s guaranteed—
Someone may be more qualified than me.

But if I can say one thing let it be
Have the Gaming Industry be ready for me.
