The Laws of Presence

So after looking at a few sites/universities and their curriculum...I have come to the decision that I want to go to Indiana University Bloomington because they seem to have a lot more choices then other colleges.

My main major I want to be in Recording Arts which is for those whom wish to purse a career in music recording, audio post-production for cd, dvd, tv and film. I've always had a thing for music composition and recording ever since I started playing music.  It seems fun to me the different sounds I can achieve through the proper editing and imagination.

I first knew that I wanted to do this when I made a song for my mother for her christmas gift. I wrote a song titled, "Number One Mother" that I conceived one night when I woke up from a dead sleep. I immediately started writing the lyrics for it and finished them within 5 hours. After that I began on the guitar part, which I finished within 2 or 3 days. Then I made the drums on a program called Acoustica Beatcraft, that took me almost 2 months to complete. In conjunction with the drums I recorded video which took the viewer through my life starting with the neighborhood of my childhood, ending at the place of residence at that time.

Once that was finished with all that; I recorded the guitar, recorded the vocals, edited the video and synced it all up and rendered the video.

Then I made a dvd for my mom to see when the whole family was together.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house, to see even my own brother cry meant that I had done something great. I knew that from that moment on that what I want for my future is that; to make my mother proud.

After watching it, they made me play it live lol


So there is my story on why I want to pursue a degree in music. If I were to take a second major it would probably be in Film & Media or Communication & Culture.

Cool, calm and collected

Today was much better than yesterday.

I woke up a bit distraught because I stayed up so late, there's also the moment when I realized that my bike had been stolen.

I'm not really worried about that.


After getting up I relaxed a bit by watching some Supernatural and finishing the 2nd season. That show is quite the masterpiece; the story telling and action sequences along with the character building [which is superb] make you think.

[It's actually quite late right now and i'm tired so i'm going to shorten this a great deal.]

Justin and Becca were at the flea market all day and when they got home they showed me a puppy [Jack Russell Terrier] that they had acquired while there.

He's adorable [pictures later] and I like him...we don't officially have a name for him.



I made the most amazing burgers.


The end.
