New sets of lyrics and ideas + new iPod

Sunday, October 28th, 2007

I managed to finish three song lyrics this week, and more ideas continue pouring in pretty fast. It seems I’m picking up inspiration from a bunch of different stuff to mix in with Ari’s life history as well as school life. I think it could work out. Ari and I spent some time writing lyrics [...]

I think we got it down!

Friday, October 19th, 2007

First of all, I managed to get the OSX partition to boot consistently so I’m not worried about it anymore. I had to fiddle around with some BIOS settings to get it kicking right.
Anyway, we managed to do some recording this week. Most of the time, it was just trying to find the right [...]

A little bit frustrated

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

It looks like my Mac OSX partition is acting funny again … this time, it just doesn’t like to boot and I haven’t quite figured out what I did to break it. With that said, I wasn’t able to get any vocals recorded, nor any music composed. So for now, I’ll just stick to writing [...]

The song is written like a [...]

Worrisome is Contagious

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

My mom answered the phone and it was the security department from Coastal. I don’t ever recall applying for a position in the security department at Coastal so maybe I did something stupid that I shouldn’t have done.  But during the course of the call, my mom overheard me. Now she has like the hearing [...]

Enlightenment

Monday, October 1st, 2007

I feel 75% enlightened and 25% confused.
Well, here’s the story:
I woke up this morning expecting to leave the house right around 8:15 AM to get to campus at around 8:35-ish. However, my brother did not get ready for school until 8:30 so we ended up leaving the house at 8:35 and arriving at around 8:55. [...]
