Mustache Assassin -   Recorded this probably around a month ago, I just today fiddled with making in not sound like total garbage. I feel it could have been a lot longer, but I didn't feel like recording anything else for it, and decided to upload it as-is. 

I've been looking into getting a proper recording setup for a little while now, but I've been too broke to buy it all at once, so I don't know when I'll get it. I have some acoustic stuff I want to put together, and even though my pedal board has USB-out to my PC, and records in super clear stereo, I like the sound I get from my amp a lot better. 
 
I really wish I had a drum kit that I could track. I lose any and all flare that I have to offer behind a kit when programming drums with my midi keyboard.  
 
But if any of you out there want to program for me, that'd be cool! The problem I usually have is that the process I have when making a song starts with the beat. I tried writing a songs before that a friend of mine was going to do the programming on, but it never panned out. I can never get a good idea of how I like something without a proper drum beat. Hell, I can't even record guitar tracks in-time without one. Recording to a click track is the worst thing ever.  
 
So basically, if you are good at programming rock drums, send me a beat and I'll add my stuff to it.  
 
Other than doing this, I've been playing God of War collection. I missed out on those games because I didn't have a PS2. About 3 hours into the first game, and it's pretty awesome so far. It holds up really well.

 Look pal, it's the 19th chapter. I just want to finish you so I can play buy your vastly improved sequel and enjoy it to the fullest. But no. You have to be a dick. I mean, don't get me wrong, you're a good game and all, and I'm enjoying you a lot. But I've endured your frustrating gun battles long enough to deserve the ability to finish you. Why can't you just not freeze? Why can't the 3.01 firmware do what it was supposed to? 

I know this is a common problem, but seriously. My PS3 is only 2 months old, and I bought you brand new. This shouldn't be happening. 

I JUST WANT TO FINISH YOU!

This is pretty crazy for me. I haven't done one of these since Ought Six, back when I was friends with all the cool kids in the Gamespot Krew. And even then I only tried it maybe 2 or 3 times. 
 
I gotta say, I'm pretty happy with the result of this. I prefaced the video saying I'd probably have a lot of jump-cuts, but I only had to do that 2 or 3 times.  
 
Anyway, don't expect this as a regular thing from me. I was just really bored, and procrastinating doing laundry.

I find this kind of amusing.

I started working back at office depot coming up on 4 weeks ago. Admittedly, it was out of desperation. I really didn't want to be there again.

As of right now, I really really dislike it there. There is a level is strictness that shouldn't exist, and when I'm only making $8/hr part time, I don't have much of a reason to want to stay at the company.

Today, I went in for a second interview with Verizion Wireless and scored the job, which is good because the comission is higher, and it's full time.

But there is another job I'm hoping to get. I live 5 minutes from UCSD, and applied for a job in the USCD bookstore. The difference between this job, and any other job I've been at is that it's full time, has benefits, and pays $2150 a month. To put it in perspective, I'd be getting payed $2150 a month to be doing pretty much the same thing I do right now, which currently gets me less than $1000 a month.

Currently my app status on the UCSD job is "Referred". Which, on the key of statuses is right before an interview. So I'm hopeful that I'll get the job. I just have a feeling that if I do, it will be like, a week after I start at verizon.
