I FINALLY completed this. It took forever, but it needed to be done. I am creating music for a video game that my high school’s TSA club is creating. It is a pain, but it’s fun at the same time. I have been using GarageBand in previous compositions for past video games, but this time is different. I laid down some cash for Roland’s CakeWalk Music Creator 6. It’s one of the most intuitive and best designed software...

I haven’t made a blog post in a while, but that doesn’t mean that I haven’t been THINKING about doing a blog post. Trust me, I have thought about it. Almost every single time, I decided it wasn’t worth it because I had more important work to do.

First off, it’s physically not good for you. You...

If you watch The Science Channel too much, you will become depressed. It’s a simple fact of life. Why do I say this? Killer volcanoes, killer wales, killer lakes, killer meteors, etc. Everything kills. There are so many ways for the natural world to turn on us. This would upset the normal soul, but, for some reason, it doesn’t upset me at all. In fact, I find it really cool… and it’s partially the reason why I love...

No, they are not. Smart phones aren’t making us any smarter either. Here’s why: Smart phones are meant to expedite every day tasks. They let make you faster, not smarter or more stupid.
