Double Post Day! Header Info

Well it seems some people were interested in my header so I figured I would give links to both the Adobe Illustrator file and the PNG for use on any other webpages. When I get better at making these I will write up a tutorial on it!

Class Without teh Interwebs

Class Without Internet

Well today my international relations class, I could not get any internet! It’s terrible! I’m stuck writing a blog post in pages and pretty much bored doing it, but anyways. I have realized I would pretty much die if there was not internet at all. I’d never have anything to consume my time, I’d have to watch all of my TV shows with ads and watch them at their regularly scheduled time. It’s amazing how much I have become dependent on internet. I look up all my information now over google, I’ll watch most of the election coverage online. I’d lose a huge form of communication with friends without internet and I just hope that this class gets it’s wifi issues fixed because I can’t play a video game because I am afraid of it making any sounds. Basically if I make a sound I have to sing something in front of the class and that would not be good!

Here’s an aim conversation someone might have if they were stuck trying to im their friend, but the internet was really bad and they never got anything back

hey
what’s up?
hello?

Rock Band

Well since one of my friends is giving me grief about only posting about USC football I decided to write something completely off of that topic and about 1 of my experiences this past week.

I brought up Rock Band 2 to my dorm to play and have fun with friends. Little did I know how much time I really would spend not just playing, but thinking about what I'm going to do next in the game. Finally I actually got to where the end was finally in sight, where I actually could play all over the world. Especially when I saw 1 of the venues with a ridiculous 400+ stars available at it. Yep that's the new endless setlist, a whopping 80+ song setlist. I've taken a little break so it is still not unlocked, but anyways back to the main point of this article.

I unlocked the Rolling Stone Hall of Fame Set and wanted to make sure I could pass all of the songs before I tried it on expert, because I didn't want to do all 7 songs and die on the last 1, which is exactly what would have happened. Anyways I decided to try Painkiller my first time and died in about a minute. I had never heard the song before and fast strumming parts plus repetitive parts equaled death for me. So I basically ended up spending about 4 hours working on the repetitive stuff, strumming and intro parts, and then trying to just survive through the solo which is truly what eventually happened.

I played it and got good enough to get to that damn 57% mark every time, it was just the case of whether I could make it thru the last part of the solo without dying. I finally made it thru once, then did it again for that 8 song set, but wow that song is hard. Here's a video of someone much better than me, but just gives you an idea of what I'm talking about!


Hello Everyone!

Well I figured I would post something, so I'm just going to post some random things going on in my life haha.

The Washington game was pretty much an awesome victory, yet a boring one. Winning 56-0 makes that the third shutout in USC's season. It was an awesome homecoming though. Got to hang with friends, see my parents, and see a sweet victory.

I started running Google Analytics on my blog to see traffic more, but also got invited to 2 new torrent sites. I customized my dock to make it look way cooler.

Finally, I'm watching cool tv shows now, but sadly Heroes isn't on tonight. Boo.

Homecoming and Halloween

Well it's that time of year. Halloween! The time when everyone dresses up in crazy ridiculous costumes. I won't spoil my surprise for my costume, but maybe I'll have pictures tomorrow! I went with a few band people to the haunted house last night which was pretty fun. Even though I hate things jumping out at me. The graveyard part was pretty funny tho. Zombie girls looking for prom dates haha, it was scary. After that, we went to see 2 USC vocal groups sing a capella which was pretty freaking amazing! Not to mention yesterday I beat Rock Band 2 on expert which included the rediculously hard Painkiller! Now all I have left in that is the even more extreme endless setlist 2! AHHHHH

My RB profile

Another thing to add to the craziness of this week is that it's freaking HOMECOMING! BEAT THE HUSKIES! I get to have a nice busy night these next few days. Going to rallies both tonight and tomorrow, then a party tomorrow night! Then we definitely get to destroy the huskies!

Hopefully we'll do something like this to them

"USC 69 - WSU 0"

Anyways I sure hope we dominate them!

Adios


South Park Pandemic

Wow what an amazing episode Pandemic Part 2 was. It is working off the idea of Cloverfield with giant guinea pigs that attack South Park and the entire world. There were so many creative ideas in this and I laughed the hardest I have in a long time, especially with the different animals that invaded. I don't want to tell anymore because it's too good to be ruined. Craig is pretty funny in this and it keeps having lots of funny twists. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Here's the video


I'M SO STARTLED!
