A Gaggle of Geese and Ganders

So the other day I decided to make a post every night before bed. Last night I didn't do that. I guess I'm not very good at doing what I say I'm going to do, huh?

Well I replaced the phone I accidentally bricked, so thats a good thing. ordered an otterbox case so it won't get damaged anymore. :D

Playing Magic the Gathering at 2 in the morning is pretty fun, especially when you're playing with someone who hasn't played in 10 years and has a deck that isn't as powerful as yours. HAHAHA! I win 3-0. I'm sure next time we battle things will be very different, because he'll trick out his deck with some cards to beat me.

God Muncie is so borring. There is nothing to do here, unless you like to party, which im not too big on. It's kind of depressing.

I found this video today. It's been making me laugh so hard all day. definitely check it out. :D

The road

As I listen to Imogen heap and listen to people blasting their music as the roar down the road at 45mph on at 20 mph road, I sit and wonder to myself,  why do I do the things I do? I don't understand what drives people to motivated. My best friend Grant is an architecture major, and he works his ass off every day if the week. I barely have any homework, when I do its really easy, yet I rarely do it. I don't know how people find that within themselves to get things done. I've never been much for the future, as in I've never really been able to link my present actions to future consequences. I see what would happen, I know the consequences, they just don't motivate me like they should. Is that a problem with me, or is everyone like that and they just push through it?

Sometimes (okay almost all the time) I wish I could read other people's minds. Not to steal their secrets or anything sinister, but just to see how other people think; to see just how similar or different we all are. I want to know what other people think of the world, of themselves and of their problems. I want to be in touch with everyone on that personal level.

Well that's enough brain-spew for one night. Enjoy your morning/night. :]

Just a little Post about the media.

How long has it been since the media shut down napster? Like 15 years? Well after 15 years or so we finally have a good replacement for it. Rdio, and Spotify are really nice freemium services that give the people what they want, music. The only reason the media was against napster was because they weren't making enough money from it, and the reason they never came out with something like it is because they couldn't figure out how to profit from it. Now streaming services are popping up everywhere, and frankly I'm not excited about it. I'd rather have my own copy of the media, movie or music. Because in 5 years when things change or Rdio goes out of business or Spotify gets too expensive, what do you have? several thousand dollars down the drain, and no library of songs/movies to show for it.

I love having an almost 100GB music library. It makes me happy that I can listen to whatever genre I want, whenever I want. thats also why I love google Music, because it stores all my songs, without ads, for free. Even if it wasn't free, I'd still use it, because i couldn't go without my music for one day. 

Hopefully the media will get it's head out of it's ass and start doing things the people want instead of doing things purely for money. The streaming services are a good start, but not enough. 

Also, I somehow have 23 pageviews and I'm really not sure how that happened. I havent even advertised this blog at all. :O But thanks for reading anyway!

Yesterday :D


Lots of things have been happening recently. It always seem like when one bad thing happens, more happen right after it, and then when things start to get good, more bad things happen. oh well. so is life.

Yesterday was internet blackout day and as of right now support has changed from 80/30 (for/against) to 65/102 and several co-supporters have left. So a good day for the internet. Huzzah!

I think the best solution for making congress actually work, would be this:

Put all the unemployed americans that are below the poverty line in office. Get rid of all the people that were raised from birth to be in congress and pay the poor people half their salary, and give them some health care. Now lets see some real change happen. :D
