I get crazy annoyed whenever someone asks me if I can transcribe a "super awesome" song by another a cappella so that they can perform it. It's like if I were a painter and instead of commissioning me to be creative and paint something new, they ask me to paint a picture by DaVinci. What's the point!? DaVinci already painted it. Why should I ( Read more... )

In my dream last night, I was out in the wilderness and I had to walk out on this very, very long dock to collect some water from the icy lake. There were boards missing here and there, so I'd have to jump sometimes, and it was very slippery. Everyone once in a while, a board would tip to the left or the right and I would fall through the crack ( Read more... )

I've had this discussion with some people before but I thought I'd write it out for those of you who haven't thought about this. When you work at a job that pays by hour, what's the incentive for trying to do your job quickly? Why should you work harder when you are essentially rewarded with less money because you finished your job faster? I ( Read more... )

I've decided I'm going to try and earn at least a minimum of $60 a day from now. This may seem meager to some people, but as a person who is basically earning a living doing freelance work, I think this is a reasonable goal to set. I'm not including my part time job hours in this goal - only my freelance work. I want to get in the habit of ( Read more... )

I finished an arrangement yesterday. It was an a cappella ABBA medley. I don't know how I ever got through it, but I made it happen. It actually only ended up taking me a few hours. That's how it usually goes once I really get rolling with these things. I think it turned out pretty great, too, and I managed to come up with completely original ( Read more... )

...is impossible. The way you make money in this game is ridiculous. So, here's how it works: In other Final Fantasy games, as soon your battle is over you earn a certain amount of experience and money. In FFXII, though, when you kill an enemy, they will drop "loot." You then have to pick up the loot and take it to a nearby village and sell it ( Read more... )

I think my time as a biker this year is done. I'll still go short distances, of course, but biking to work is a little too much at this temperature. Sure, I could dress up in tons of warm clothes and then make the trek, but by the time I get there, everything would be drenched in sweat and my backpack isn't big enough to carry an extra change of ( Read more... )

"We're all sinners and we're all forgiven through Christ if we believe. Simple as that, amen. Gay people included. If a gay person gets married its no different than your sins, it's our job to preach the Gospel, not condemn others with rules and laws when we're all equal. That's not what we are supposed to do. Right ( Read more... )
