I usually burn after being in the sun two days in a row. After that, I'm fine. Now I've gotten a nice tan on my arms, legs, and everything from the neck up. It's mostly because of marching band, and because I live in southeast Texas.

I confess I think I'm starting to lose my hearing.

I confess I really hope it doesn't come down to that. I don't want to leave audio!

I was at Starbucks with a few friends not too long ago, when I said, "Wow! It smells like coffee in here!" No duh!

Uh, did I just cause an outburst of widespread panic? If I did, I really didn't mean to; I was only making a joke.

I just got my class rank today: 62 out of 593. Wow, I just barely missed the cut to be in the top 10% by three people! If only I did better in physics during the first semester last year. However, I'm still in the 1st quarter, which increases my chances of getting into a good college!

Have y'all heard of dihydrogen oxide? Apparently, it's this deadly gas that causes instant death to humans and animals when inhaled. Like, blink-of-an-eye instant death. It also can cause severe tissue damage due to prolonged exposure when it is in it's solid form. Some power and automotive plants and factories have not considered this deadly gas to be a death hazard.

Fifty people were asked to say "yes" or "no" on Proposition 17, a bill that, when passed, will ban dihydrogen oxide from all power plants, automotive plants, and factories. Forty-seven people voted yes to the proposition, two people were undecided, and one person voted no. Why?




"Dihydrogen oxide is another name for water!"

Canto Della Terra - Andrea Bocelli

I always wondered how young babies could keep those crazy rock star hours....

Finally listening to the new Heart album I've been waiting for since they announced it, maybe two or three years ago. It was so worth the wait!

I confess, and this is why I want to make Audio Engineering my career choice. I hate this generation of music. Seriously, since when was music this big, stupid popularity contest?

I confess I'll admit it's nice to have a platinum-selling number one record, but, as a musician and music purist, I'd rather have an album the barely cracks the Top 40, but I know put forth the time and effort into it, than a platinum-selling number one record that I made too quickly without any chance to make it sound good.

I confess, seniors arrive late tomorrow! Juniors and sophomores, have fun taking the PSAT!!! XD

I do the same thing with my dad, Paden. Fortunately for him, it usually takes one reminder from him for me to get up. My brother, eh, that's a different story.

Contemplating staying up a little past my bedtime. It's good to be a senior.

I confess I just came back from a master class with the Stephen F. Austin State University music professors at Taylor High School. It was awesome, and now I have something to look forward to on my way to SFA.

I confess the only complaint I had about the whole thing was the clarinet class was in the Black Box Theatre, and that place was freezing! I swear, it made my school seem like a sauna, and my school is cold as ice!

I confess, welcome to junior year, Carl. Trust me, senior year will be so much easier!

I confess we actually started recording today in Audio Engineering! My class is recording "If It Means A Lot To You" by A Day to Remember, and I'm playing both of the lead acoustic guitar parts. I did pretty good after learning the music a few days ago.

I confess this isn't my first time being recorded, since my high school band did the studio workshop for Disney's Magic Music Days a little over a year ago.

There's a magician on a cruise ship, and the captain always came to the show every night, and brought this parrot he had every night. The parrot would always ruin the show for the magician saying things like, "He put it in his hat! Bwark!" "It's in his sleeve! Bwark!"

The magician hated this bird. One night, the magician snapped, and pulled out a gun to kill the parrot. The parrot dodged the bullet, which hits a propane tank, and the ship blows up into a million pieces. The only survivors where the magician and the parrot floating on this piece of the ship, and the parrot goes, "Alright, I give up. Where's the ship?"
