About this blog

This is a blog where I just post my thoughts and opinions in general, where those thoughts would be too long for a status update.

This intersection needs a stoplight. Somepony could be injured or killed!

Like seriously. Notice how, at the end of "Generosity," Carriage #1 simply pulls out in front of Carriage #2 at the intersection in the red circle. Who had right of way? Did #1 legally make that left turn? Was #2 supposed to yield? Without a stoplight at this intersection, WHO KNOWS?!They were both fortunate that they missed each other (though just barely). A stoplight would be useful at this intersection! Somepony could be injured or killed! I just hope that none of those carriages were carryin

My first experience with espresso

I enjoy a little coffee in the morning. It helps me to get out of that rising zombie state into a fully aware zombie ready for a full day of apocalypse normally functioning person ready to tackle the day. I don't drink much coffee, though. Generally, a shower also does a pretty good job of getting me up, but it doesn't have the lasting power of coffee for me. But if I'm not feeling up to speed after my morning shower, a hot cup of black coffee will do the trick. But only one cup of coffee becaus

What happens when I try to "fix" broken things

So yeah, this is what happens when you let me grubby little hands get a hold of broken things. I try to fix them and only end up breaking them even more!     This is my brother's old iPod Classic. The 80 GB model. 6th generation. He just gave it to me for nothing since he got an iPhone and therefore had no need for an iPod. He doesn't work on computers like I do (I've taken apart both my laptops and completely disassembled one of them and built my own desktop on top of working on a multitu

A funny moment I just had on Facebook (accidental troll moment)

So this is gonna be a short one   I posted on Facebook about my grades and my 3.25 for the semester. Two good friends of mine commented on this status. Let's call the first John. And the second friend, we'll call Jake. John is Jake's older brother. John is older than me and Jake is younger than me.   So if I haven't lost you yet, this is what happened:   STATUS Me: Finished the semester with decent grades. GPA was 3.25. 112 hours down and I think I only have 48 left til I get that master'

What My Guitar Means to Me (And How Music Saved My Life)

Disclaimer: there's some language and dark themes in this entry. If you're easily offended by dark themes or strong language, this is your fair warning.   Let me tell you guys something: I love music. It’s something I do every day. I took music classes in high school and I played in a college band. I also played the guitar in a local band with some of my best friends. Music means a lot to me. It’s been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember.   My mother and father listene

The man who proposed to his girlfriend while being arrested

This is gonna be a short one. Promise.   Only in Oklahoma does this stuff happen.   I think it's pretty funny and somewhat original although I'm sure he didn't plan on being arrested. It sort of sounds like white trailer trash type stuff if you ask me!   Rednecks. They live in my state!   But on a brighter note, I have A LOT of respect for that police officer. A lot of people will look down on police as the "filthy crooked pigs" but there are a lot of them in small towns are are reall

Scammed. And I should have known better.

Disclaimer: This contains some language that is hidden in the fourth spoiler. Other than that, the rest of the entry is clean. Disclaimer the second: There's some light computer jargon, and if that's not your thing, your head may hurt.   This is my Samsung Galaxy S4. (ignore the Toshiba laptop it's sitting on. I needed a surface that contrasted with the color of the phone lol)         I love my phone. It’s the first phone I’ve had that my parents weren’t paying the phone bill. That’s

Sorry I'm so whiny this week, but finals absolutely friggin suck

Yeah, I know it. I've been very, very whiny as of late. I'm trying my best to cope with one of the most stressful weeks to any college student: finals week.   If you don't know about it or you're not in college (or university as they call it in Canada), finals week happens twice a year at the end of each semester. It's a very trying time, especially since college is usually like high school on steroids. On top of that, college students generally have to work, keep up their grades, and try to m

We are all attention seekers

I’ve seen plenty of people call out people they call “attention whores.” Those people who post things that say “like if your shirt is yellow” or “like if you were born” or “like if you—“ some other thing that obviously a lot of people are doing, have done, have experienced, and so forth. And these people agree that they have done or experienced that thing so they drop this person a like. Then that person has thousands of people who have given their status or their comment or whatever a like. Nex

Technology: we all take this stuff for granted

The other day, I was shopping on eBay for a new SD card. The one I have in my Galaxy S4 has a total capacity of 32 gigabytes, and I've got it down to its last 13 megabytes. The only thing it can hold much of now is Word documents. So I shopped on eBay and picked up a 64 gigabyte SD card for about thirty bucks.   On a per gigabyte basis, that's extremely cheap, and that got me to thinking about the technology I had in high school. Let's rewind about 6 years. I was a sophomore in high school (t

When you study 15+ hours for an exam and still don't do well enough...

Another vent blog entry? Yes. Another vent blog entry.   In case you don’t know, I take school pretty seriously. Sure, I don’t give it as much effort as it deserves, but I do care a lot about my grades. I have some pretty high standards when it comes to my grades. It’s not a straight A standard, but my GPA is 3.63, and I’m not even happy with that when I’m sure other students would almost kill to have my GPA.   When you get to college, your idea of school may change. Maybe it’s because colle

2014: Year of the Beard

it's been about 2½ or 3 weeks or so since I last shaved. And here I am looking like a total scuzball because my hair was kinda nappy and greasy     So I got the idea to make a video project where I take a picture a day for the entire year of 2014, but I can't shave all year. On December 31, I'm going to shave my face, and from January 1, 2014 through January 1, 2015, the razor will not touch my face. I'll take one picture a day and at the end of the year, I'll mash them all together in a s

I may start making songs in MPC again

A couple years ago, I started getting into making music in Mario Paint Composer using the original soundfont because I liked it best. Besides, the reason I looked up stuff made in MPC was to hear music in that sort of 16-bit sound. Anyway, I only made two, and here they are:   1979 by the Smashing Pumpkins   And the James Bond theme song   I've been thinking about this for a while and I really want to make one for Tears Don't Fall. I got started on it but when my old computer's

My Rant on Adam Buckley's Rant on Bronies

Pretty recently, I found Adam Buckley on YouTube, and I think most of his stuff is pretty funny or agreeable. Even in his less than funny rants, he tends to make a lot of good, intelligent points to certain things while not giving a fuck in the least. That’s what I like most about him. He just doesn’t care. Adam Buckley is about as apathetic as they come, and he makes it pretty clear in some of his videos.   So I became a kind of fan of his and I’ve been listening to a lot of his stuff because

I'm so awful at making friends with people...

It seems like I've always been like this. I am one of the worst people in the world when it comes to making new friends. I'm awful at holding conversations and I'm socially awkward. These aren't things I was told by a counselor. They're just things I've noticed about myself as I've gotten older.   My whole life, I always had a small circle of friends. It's not that I don't like making new friends. And I generally don't want to exclude someone from my conversation. I just can't approach someon
