Thoughts from a (girl) Gamer
Tara Voelker's thoughts. A lot about video games, a little about life
RTS Paranormal History
Posted by on February 20, 2012
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m now an investigator for RTS Paranormal. Check out this video I edited for us – I haven’t done much video editing, so it was a fun experiment.
The Silent HD Collection VO
Posted by on February 2, 2012
If you’re a fan of Silent Hill at all, you’ve probably heard about what’s going down with Silent Hill and the VO on the title. If you haven’t, here is the quick version: Konami announced they were re-recording all of the VO for both Silent Hill 2 and 3 for the HD collection. Some hardcore [...]
What’s with the new domain name?
Posted by on January 31, 2012
When I originally set out to make my own blog, thoughtsfromagirlgamer.com wasn’t my first pick. To be honest, I came about the domain after about 50 attempts to pick one. I realized that throwing “girl” in with “gamer” opened up a lot of new options. And I was a girl and a gamer…. So, I [...]
In the depths of a gmail inbox, Palm Tree Head
Posted by on December 14, 2011
Hello all, I recently found this while cleaning out my gmail inbox. It’s a piece I did in Maya while I was going to college. I simply call it PalmTreeHead. I really liked it, so I thought I would share. XOX Tara
The World in Low Res Night Vision
Posted by on December 12, 2011
After joining RTS Paranormal and giving ghosts tours on the USS Salem, I bought myself a toy. What was the toy you ask? A pair of low res, picture and video taking, night vision goggles. Since buying them, I’ve decided to start a picture journal of the experience. Here are the first batch of pictures- [...]
Oh, hey blog. Sup?
Posted by on December 12, 2011
So, it’s the same story that happens all the time. I go, make some blog posts… promise I will be back soon… then disappear for a couple months. But really, if you’re actually subscribed to my blog, you’re not really surprised. So, I plan on making a couple short catch up posts on various topics, [...]
A short update and announcement.
Posted by on October 10, 2011
So, this is rather short. I’ve been busy with my new job at Irrational Games (which is awesome), adjusting to my new home, celebrating my birthday, and then doing some game accessibility work. There will be a more proper update later, as well as Hello Kitty car updates coming. But for now, I just wanted [...]

So, I’m broadcasting my move to Boston. Well, part of it anyway. It’s a fun experiment. We’ll see how it goes. http://www.justin.tv/widgets/live_embed_player.swf?channel=ladieaupairWatch live video from Ladie Au Pair on www.justin.tv
Irrational Games, Here I Come.
Posted by on August 15, 2011
So a couple week ago, there was nothing more I wanted to do than post this picture on Facebook or Twitter. It’s the first you see when you walk into Irrational. It’s life sized and awesome. But I couldn’t. My trip to Boston was a secret, and only a handful of close friends and family [...]
The Things People Search – August 2011
Posted by on August 11, 2011
So, one of the things that I can do on the admin side of this blog is see the things that people have entered into search engines that have brought my blog up or that people have clicked to get here. And honestly, some are hysterical. Some are weird as fuck. So, I have compiled [...]

My Wedding Slide Show
Posted by on July 20, 2011
So, here is a slide show from my wedding, with music from the ceremony (Halo 3, Zelda, Jurassic Park) and a transcript of the service below. Ceremony by Matt Fear. First off I would like to start off with a little something I have always wanted to do… “Mawwage. Mawwage is what bwings us togethew [...]
