So Star Wars: Episode III is on right now. It has just occured to me… why is General Grievous always coughing? He’s an android, isn’t he? I know it’s revealed in Episode II that he has some type of heart, but that has nothing to do with the respiratory system. Hmm…

Things I’ve learned while graphic designing for record labels:

- Simplistic designs usually won’t do.
- Add drop shadows or outer glows to everything.
- Use textures everywhere.
- The more bloated the header is, the better.
- Hovers are a must.
- No website is complete without some sort of gallery.
- Back-up all PSDs. They WILL want things brought back from past designs.

Disappointed with her,
Understanding with him,
What is there to do,
When no one can win.

Sometimes I wonder why I chose Professional Writing as my major. I say this simply because I do not at all feel like completing the upcoming 15 page research paper for my Capstone Seminar course…

I just got back from my little brother’s Battle of the Bands. I have to give it to him; my little broseph Trevor is excellent at the drums. Too bad the rest of his band can’t carry their own weight… Unfortunatley, I don’t think they won. The judging was kind of bias. It was based on the cheering of the crowd. So whichever band had the largest following of screaming high school teenagers, regardless of talent, was going to win.

I suppose you can’t win them all.

My little brother just got home from his special haircut place… and he’s bitching about how bad it looks now. Naturally, my father doesn’t take kindly to all the moaning, since my mother took him all the way over to Brookfield (I think) for the haircut.

In my opinion, the arguing is simply laugh out loud. I’d take the side of my father though (if I ever wanted to get involved). Trevor, your hair will grow back. Get over it.

First, go see Slumdog Millionaire (you can check out my review of the movie, here). Second, try out the demo to this nifty puzzle game, Galactrix. Third, yay for warm weather in February. Fourth, this is fucked up.

New composition I wrote for a friend.
