So long, farewell to you my friends.

So this will likely be my final blog post before I change my URL so none of you can read it.

Kinda sad :(.

Goodbye blogger. I didn't like you at first, but since then I've whined and complained and told stories and now I think I'll actually miss you.

Bye bye.

8tracks review.

I was never much on Pandora. It's ok, but all the weirdness and user-unfriendlyness eventually led me to seek other options. After I was told of 8tracks, it's all I've been listening to.
The logo. In case you were curious.


It follows the same kind of principle as Pandora. Internet music stream with licensing agreements that only allow for two or three track skips. But even with this, the music library is huge. Any imaginable genre, any artist from any nation. You can find it on 8tracks (or at least something similar, the whole point is to find new things). Combine it with StumbleUpon, and you can browse music similar to your tastes and interests. 

And the best thing? Piano covers. Or any instrument, like the Vitamin String Quartet. Amazingly good. 

If you don't find one you like, you can always make your own. And study playlists can be found everywhere, making it easier to concentrate or just relax.

Try 8tracks. You won't be disappointed. 

That awkward moment when you get replaced as Harry Potter.

So wrote this post last week, so excuse any weirdness.

So Ms. Vince asked me to be Harry Potter for Panorama. And I thought I said yes but apparently I was wrong so they found someone else.

Whatever, I can deal with that. I should've been more clear. But the worst part?

They wanted me to be Edward. Cullen. The sparkly vampire.

No thank you.

Not that I don't want to be a complete joke of a character or anything (actually I don't), but there are a few problems with this plan. I'm extremely dark skinned. And Twilight-esque vampires are stupid pale and white and gross. And they have gold eyes. I look as similar to Edward as this:



looks similar to this:

Jamming and gagging.

I'm not sure about the why, but the lower level of the school is pervaded by a horribly disgusting stench. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with some regurgitation.

The point is, it's really bad.

In other news, I'm sitting here jamming and typing and stuff. And I used all my good stuff for blogging yesterday, so I'll just talk about my schedule right now. At this moment, my schedule looks like this:

  1. Spanish II - Gonzalez
  2. Environmental Science - Lee
  3. CSC 199 - Hardin
  4. Precalculus - Williamson
  5. AP US History - Vince
  6. AP English - McCord
  7. Band - Nash
The thing is, I really want to take Jazz Band, which just moved to fourth. Now, apparently there are other changes being made, but I know nothing of them so I'll assume they don't exist.

So if Jazz Band goes to fourth period, I'll take Precalculus first period and independent study Spanish II. 

If need be, I'm fine with changing around my first four periods. The last three are pretty immovable.
