New term, more concerts, and the 1st anniversary of the most hated mans death.

Uggh I really need to keep up with my blog.  So much has happened throughout this month and I just want to just get it all out.

Well I think that the 1st thing that happened on the beginning of this month of april was that I started my 5th term, and officially a Sophmore in the Art institute of Jacksonville.  I have only two classes.  1. Cinematography taught by Issac Brown who was my conceptual storytelling Professor on my 2nd term.  He is awesome and mentally scarred after telling him the story of my fictional Serial Killer Boo Radley Gibbons.  And Developmental Math *Uggh*  taught by Professor Holly.  Math is really my Achilles heel and I dun like it.  But I'm determined to kick butt on it.

So far I love my Cinematography class and I have done really well on turning in projects and producing/editing them.  I recently was involved in starring and directing two Speed stick commercials for that class.  One of them I directed, the other one was directed by my buddy Anthony, he wanted me to wear a speedo and get a nice rubdown by 4 beautiful girls while very confident having taken Speed Stick.  Plus it was so fun being on set as always.

Earlier this April I went to my first concert of 2012 since my friends CD release party.  And it was seeing one of the Titans of Death Metal, CANNIBAL CORPSE!!!!!  As you all know i'm a huge Metalhead by heart, and Death Metal is my favorite genre of Metal.  And of course my favorite Death Metal band is Cannibal Corpse.  They were on tour with Exhumned, Abysmal Dawn, Arkaik, and local band Ebulution.  One of the greatest moments of that concert was seeing a guy I met by the name of Spencer grab his buddy by the legs, and swung him around the Mosh pit like a human club.  I got to meet a really hot girl, but ditched my ass in the middle of Corpses performance.  The only downside was that were three Scene girls bouncing around as if they saw Asking Alexandria.  But when Cannibal Corpse played Hammer smashed face *Their most famous song*  I showed those Scene girls why they're not welcome to our Metal shows.

As April comes to an end there are four things I'm excited for in may.

1.  The first anniversery of 5/1.  AKA the day that Seal team 6 kicked 32 different types of kicking ass to Osama Bin Laden that he died.  All i'm ever doing on that day is basically play Lamb of God, and Pantera, and eat Barbecue with my ol man.

2.  My big brother Myles last week finished up all of his exams and is done with college, and later on I will be seeing him graduate.

3.  Will be seeing Deathcore legends Whitechapel tear up the place.  Last time I was about to see them, but had to leave because of a family emergency.

4.  Get hammer drunk on the US vs. Scotland soccer game with my bro and his buds.

Yup.  Can't wait.

Finished up my 4th term, Mass Effect 3 review, and a well deserved break

Wow!  Its been ages since I last made my previous blog.  But Damn things have really changed for the good.  I finished up my finals for my fourth term.  But this time I actually gave a rats ass about it all.  Studied hard, grabbed destiny by the balls, and took no prisoners.  I was on fire.  And I think I'm actually proud by the soon good news.  Plus a while back I attended my first ever midnight release party of Mass Effect 3.  I never actually attended Midnight release parties or screenings because my folks think its stupid and pointless.  Not to mention that I had to shoot for my final project as well.  Overall gotten it done.

But all those who are crazy ME Fans like me and haven't finished the 3rd yet this is not the post you want to read, so this is a spoiler coming right up.

My Shepard's name is Neil.  Named after my Scottish cousin in Glasgow.  My first play through I assisted the Turians by curing the Genophage for the Krogan to help them against the Reapers, got the Rachnnai on our side once more, Killed Udinas ass, defeated the Geth sadly killing Legion in the process, and on the final choice on destroying the Reapers on the Crucible, I used the Gun method meaning I destroyed the Reapers and all organic life.  But thankfully I had a save so I did it over again, by sacrificing my life in driving out the Reapers away forever.  Still I was not satisfied having all the Mass Effect Relay's blow up.

But above all that it was a good game, except for the ending.

S.O.P.A. Voting for a second time, and Mayhem Fest 2012.

Okay.  I know that this was not posted sooner, but I'm posting this anyway.  Several weeks ago, I received news from my friends on my Facebook that the dang Government was passing a bill by S.O.P.A. that they were going to censor the internet completely.  For a second I thought they were going to censor explicit material from the internet to children, but it turns out they were going to censor the internet to save the entertainment industry from Piracy, and that means destroying the internet as I love and cherish completely.  I took offense to it as a lover of the internet.  I use the internet to look up hilarious Youtube videos, keep in touch with my friends on FB, and use the internet for research for my studies.  Also to keep up on my Metal Music, what awesome videogames will be coming out, ETC.  I gladly stood up in protest, and to make things shorter, my part, as well as the millions of others made a difference.  I'm glad that the bill did not go all the way, and that my interwebz is safe.  That is why I didn't make a new post on my blog.

Now onto other issues.  2012 has come, and also the race to take the Oval Office as the 45th President.  I'm not into politics, in fact I literally resent it.  But what I do understand is that this Nation needs a President who is smart, clever, has an understanding of this sticky situation we are in, and most importantly, has enough votes to kick Obama out for good.  The Candidates that are competing to win that have much publicity are Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Ron Paul.  My ol Man voted for Mitt Romney because he is of course Republican, and knows that giving out money to foreign nations to give us Oil, and then make us pay more money to buy their Oil is not a good idea.  Even though I despised the 2010 Gulf Spill, we have got the resources right on our back door.  And I hope that we can drill carefully and not make the same mistake.  Newt Gingrich I do not know a whole lot.  But what I do know is that I won't trust a man who Ronald Reagan did not like his ideas, and as well unfaithful to his wife.  But what I have my eyes on is Ron Paul.  He was Republican, but I think Liberitarian.  He predicted the recession of the Economy, and I think that he could get America back on its feet up and running again.  What I do find amazing is that the last time I voted was in 2010 the day after my wisdom teeth operation.  I was so messed up from meds, and extremely weak.  And now present day 2012, I have a sore throat, and voted for Ron Paul.  Let's hope my vote was a good one.

Now we go to the final topic on this post.  I looked up this years Mayhem Fest, and i was shocked.  The headlining band was of course one of my favorites Slipknot. I saw them live, and seeing them live was one of the greatest experiences of my life.  They are also with Slayer and Anthrax, two of the four greatest Thrash bands,  But then two other bands in which I literally resent are on the line up.  Devil wears Prada, and Asking Alexandria.  Now hear me out.  Mayhem Fest is supposed to be hard rock, and extreme Metal.  But allowing two bands that are suitable for Warped tour in this festival is like sacrilege. These bands make me wanna puke, and destroy all their poser fans.  The other bands I approved of.  As I lay Dying, Whitechapel, and High on fire.  I saw AILD live last year, and met two members of Whitechapel, and getting into High on Fires music.  I just sure hoe this year that all the beautiful Metalheads can release their hatred on the fans of Devil wears Prada, and Asking Alexandria, wishing that their bands were never on the line up.  Oh there will be blood.

2012. Start of a new, and hopefully good year.

Wow.  This is my 1st posting of the new year of the dreaded 2012.  I'm always haunted the fact that the world will blow up on this year, but so far nothing has happened, and I hope that I make it through this year to continue on my life.

I didn't get a new years kiss as always.  Probably the fact I had 6 beers, and 3 shots of mojito and projectile vomited all over the bathroom.  And I happened to be at a family friends house which I'm ashamed of making a mess.  But at least I was sorry for messing up her bathroom, and all that.

So far things are going good for me.  Went on a date with a Co-Worker of mine at this Thai restaurant that recently opened.  It was the first time i have ever eaten Thai food, and it was delicious.  Sadly it was just a friendly date but still it was good practice when I would have my first intimate official date.  I just have to be myself, and not tell her Booze stories.

Ever since my beloved Schnauzer Mickey passed away last year my mum has been looking off the net for a new pooch for my family.  Before we had Mickey, my family was a huge labrador family, and adored them.  Right now we have a Foster Lab originally named Dumbo *Because of his huge ears*  We thought it was a bit mean so we used that as his nickname and called him Duke, fitting name for a Lab.  He maybe a Puppy, but he is 1 years old and huge!  And what's worse is that he is crazy and wild. But thankfully one our neighbors is like a Caesar Millan and knows just how to train him......especially when walking.  It was easer when I walked Mickey, but its harder with Duke, the fact that he's a giant ass Puppy.  Its almost like trying to discipline a disobedient child, but if my parent's raised me, than I can raise Duke.  The sad thing is I'm very worried for his future, and I love this Dog.  Just as much as I love my late Mickerdoodle.

Started my 4th term today, and already it may look exciting, but challenging as well.  My classes are the following three.

1.  Introduction to Psychology
2.  Intermediate video production
3.  Intermediate editing

My last two three classes are ran by Steph Borklund who taught my lighting class which was a bitch *The class not her LOL She's great*.  But its going to be fun because me and my friend Sasha will be working on our movie Happy Hour.  Which is a mix between Pineapple Express, and The Hangover.  Its so exciting because I'm going to be the main character, not to mention do some of the producing/editing magic.  As long as I keep on track with all that, and make my Mum happy my skin is saved.

One last thing.  2011 to me was a crazy and annoying year.  So much happened throughout the world, most of it all being about the protests from the middle East, occupy Wall Street, and much forth.  I lost my best friend AKA my Schnauzer Mickey, went backstage at Mayhem Fest, and friends with some really gorgeous womenz in Europe.  XD  But My new years resolutions are

1.  Do good in school
2.  Work out more
3.  Go to more concerts
4.  Grow a handlebar Moustache
5.  And most importantly get a Girlfriend.

Alright CYA!!!

December 8th and why it is symbolic to me.

December 8th is known as the day after Pearl Harbor, but its also a day of mourning, remembering, and cherishing 3 great musicians.  Two of which died by similar circumstances *that being murder by gunfire*
and the birthday one influential musician.  So let us start with the first on our list.

1.  John Lennon - Now I'm not a huge Beatles fan, but John Lennon was indeed a humongous figure in the history and evolution of Rock and roll and later Metal.  John Lennon was an influential songwriter in a band whom was loved dearly by the world.  In December 8th 1980 he was tragically shot 5 times by Schizoid self proclaimed Beatles fan Mark David Chapman.  Whom had a grudge on him for almost half of his life.  John Lennon was greatly mourned by Beatle fans worldwide.

2. Jim Morrison - Jim was known to have an outstanding performance in the Doors and as well like the Beatles had an impact in the music world.  I do not know much about the Doors, and i'm sorry for Doors fans around the world.  At least he is remembered.

And finally we go to the one musician who I celebrate the most, and whose death was a horiffic tragedy.  Just as bad as Lennons.

3.  Darrell Lance *Dimebag Darrell, Diamond Darrell* Abbott - Dimebag is known to be the guitar player for the Metal band Pantera.  He is regarded in my words as one of the greatest guitarists of the 1990s, to the early 2000s.  Dimebag was known to have played the guitar very differently, and as well uniquely.  He did tricks on a Guitar that was in uncharted territories, and no one had ever herd from a guitar.  He was like a Guitar Wizard, and Guitar Demigod, and a legend.  But to those who were close to him, was known to be a nice, kind, and loving individual who wanted to make sure he, his bandmates, and those dearest to him, were having a good time.  He was also the life to the party as well being the MVP of Pantera.  Even after the breakup of Pantera, and forming Damageplan, Dime never gave up on what he loved best........writing, and playing the music he loved and cherished.  And to have a halluva good time as well.

But one night on Dec 8th 2004, in a small Bar in Columbus Ohio, Dime was onstage with Damageplan shredding as he always did.  Unbeknownst to him Nathan Gale a former Marine and supposed self proclaimed Pantera fan *much like Mark David Chapman* was about to impact yet again another tragedy.  Like Chapman he was Schizophrenic, and believed that Pantera broke up stealing music believed to be Gales, but in truth was Panteras work.  He pulled out a gun, and shot the beloved Guitarist  5 times.  It is very ironic because John Lennon was shot 5 times.  Gales rampage did not end there.  He killed several other people before having 35 rounds of ammunition in him killing the killer.

Again, the music world lost a man who was both talented, and beloved by millions of metalheads across the world.

These musicians have impacted the world over the last century, but I believe that they still live through their music, and millions continue to share and cherish their work.

And before I end this posting, I would like to say happy birthday to the Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor who is thankfully alive.  I'm still a Slipknot fan, and I love them just as much as Pantera.

Alright, I think I said enough.

20 years of life. HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY!!!!

Man I haven't paid much attention to my blog after the last posting, but here we go.

Today's a glorious day, the day of my birth.  I'm now 20 years old, and no more teens for me.  Being a teenager was both awesome and difficult for me, but at least I'm and Adult and can look back the good times, bad times, and the really shitty times.  But all so far I'm 20 and that's what matters.


My 3rd semester is such a bitch, and is taking a hectic toll on getting in shape.  I have Design 1 on monday, and Fundamentals of both vid production/Editing on wednesday.  So that makes it a total of 15 hours of school every week.

Last month the Bogey Grille the place where I work had a major accident which made me temporarily unemployed for 3 weeks.  The main pipe to the sprinkler system broke, which caused a whole lot of water shooting out of the entire dining room, looking like a Hurricane came through from the inside.  I was glad to help out with all of my Co-Workers redecorate the place since I'm the favorite dishwasher, and now I feel happy coming to work everyday knowing that I need the money desperately to pay my tuitions for school.

Even though I'm working today, I still need that green.  Plus my friends will do something special for me.

And one last thing...........Fuck Tiger Woods getting caught cheating on my birthday.

Finals grades, disgusting thunderstorms, new hopes for some family drama, and future plans

Well its almost the end of September, and I thought i'd put up a new blog up.  Received my grades for my finals last semester and I'm quite satisfied with them.  B+ for conceptual storytelling, C for Environmental science, and C+ for Digital Photography.  I was a bit worried for my last class the most because i've been on some rough bumps on it, and it also affected my Mum who really pressured me to do good often freaking out on me and stuff.  I actually blame myself with the C's for my Video game addiction.  As well with Gears of War 3 from the last blog I put up.  After this break is done I really have to discipline myself more harder to do good in school.

Over the past weeks Jacksonville was plagued constantly by these ugly ass storms that annoyed the crap out of me.  I mean I love cloudy weather at times but not when its like total freak ass storms 24/7.  I mean Texas is suffering from droughts why don't those storms just swoop down there?  Thankfully there are some sunny day's, and as well with some cool weather.

My Grandma stayed with us till Sept 10th, and she left early this morn.  She told me about my Mums older brother on how he's doing after his divorce.  My Uncle Mark is a supreme court Judge I believe in Michigan and was married to my Aunt Judy who was a hell of a good Physician.  They couldn't have kids so they adopted my 3 cousins from Poland Jeanetta, Sebastian, and Basia.  But unbeknownst to me the marriage was getting really really sour.  And my Aunt was really turning my cousins against my Uncle.  To be honest I thought my Aunt was a really nice person.  But to do something to my Mums older brother is just very wrong, and telling my cousins that he abandoned them like their birth parents.  No to mention that my Aunt was a supposed Animal Hoarder.  My cousins too were really affected by the divorce.  Under personal circumstances I cannot go further for the sake of my family.  But thankfully my Uncle and my cousin Basia are getting back together again.  He had her along with her boyfriend to see the Detroit Tigers, and visited my other uncle who last year ran for state Senator.  I sure hope it goes good for all of them.

The future I hope will go good for me.  Got to be more focused on school, probably adopt a new Dog for the family *But no Dog will ever replace Mickey*, maybe go down to Orlando to visit my big bro for halloween horror nights, and so forth.  The biggest plan for me in the future is to plan an epic Euro Odyssey to Europe to retrace my late Grandfather's footsteps in the European theater in WWII.  Even though I never knew my Grandfather, and he died way before I was born, my Grandma told wonderful stories about him.  She told me that he and his MP buddies would make a trip to Europe to relive their times keeping order in liberated areas from Hitler's Fortress Europa.  And it inspired me to make a trip with myself, my older Brother, and my five cousins. Andrew, Liam, Sebastian, Jeff, and my new cousin in law Mike.  I figured that this would get me closer to my late Grandfather spiritually, as well as getting crazy and having a helluva good time.  But under one condition............Sebastian must not bring, as well as call his Girlfriend.  And we would have to put in a ton of money as well as me getting myself a Passport.

Well this is all i have to say for all this.
