This is actually saying quite a bit for me (and by no means am I trying to be pompous about this), but for the first time in a while, I actually felt like I learned something out of an English course! The improvements in my writing came from the fact …
(Disclaimer: This is a blog post that I’ve been trying to post for about the past three weeks now. I just wanted to get this out there, so bare with me.)
Growing up, I had my mother’s taste in music, which simply came from the fact that whenever I was …
Here’s a link to the post since I had to use Tumblr in order to post the mp3 file:
First off, I highly appreciate what this site is accomplishing–it’s a fantastic and creative tool for learning. I’m surprised at the versatile amount of projects that people have come up with and they all use a wide array of different types of software and editing techniques. It’s also nice to …
I knew that I was going to get around to this subject eventually! There are always people who don’t know about this activity, which is why I love telling people about it. Drum Corps International (DCI) is a professional activity that’s been taking place since 1972. I’ve spent my fair …
Have you ever found yourself in a similar situation? It’s the situation where you come across a person that you’re almost certain that you’ve seen somewhere before but can’t quite place where.

Another aspect of writing that I’ve been dealing with is actually getting motivated to write in the first place. I’ve found that one of the hardest (if not THE hardest) thing about writing simply is getting started! It lies in the uncertainty about to start the entire project. It’s also known as …
Do you remember when you were sitting in English class (or even a history class) back in high school and you received that dreaded research paper that was on someone that you could seriously care less about? Those were some of the hardest papers I’ve ever had to write. Why, …
The weather’s changing..and it’s making feel a little offset. I have a lot of random thoughts floating around and since Tumblr isn’t up at the moment, I guess I’ll write here.
First off, for whatever reason, not a single person that I’ve ever dated has ever pulled for me in …
As a writer, one of things that I personally try to strive for is simply to entertain. Yet, there are so many aspects to writing that are involved with being an entertaining writer. For example, there’s a rather essential question that I need to ask myself: how can I ensure …
According to Vonnegut’s rules, honestly, rule #2 is the hardest for me to follow.
