Hmmm... An update from li'l ol' me. Nothing terribly profound lately, other than the fact that Christmas is still hard. It's been fifteen years since my brother died, and there are times when it seems like yesterday. My family has long traditions for holidays, and every time one rolls around, it's a reminder of what we've lost. This is not to say that holidays are...

My, I just love being bipolar! (insert unnecessary sarcasm here). I think I've figured out why I haven't been to any SG PDX events yet. I'm getting tired of new people basing their first impression of me on an episode. Haven't been baseline enough in the past several months to do anything fun with new folks. Been out a few times to Noir and Sinferno,...

Hmmmmm.... Long time, no journal... Not that nothing has happened, but I really don't know where to start. School is going pretty well, and there's not a day goes by that isn't humbling in some way. I was in college from '88-'96, and going back after ten years is a real eye-opener. Who'd have imagined that students would have to turn off cell phones in...

Lots of stress, but with sleep (finally), things are improving. Show open in two weeks, and normally this would be crunch time. Given the utter newness of the place and myself to it, there's not that expectation from me. So in a way, it's a lot easier and more relaxing.

sigh... birthdays are weird for me. won't get all depressing here, but today's the 15th anniversary of my only brother's funeral, and tomorrow's my berfday. it's fairly typical of how my life crises work; some nasty event always occurs around the time of something that should be wonderful. Still, this is a good reminder of how unfair life can be. I accept the unfairness, but...

hmmm... should update with something interesting...
okay, class is off to a great start. Doing a tech theater degree at Mt. Hood, and it's kinda weird how I have several folks common to all my classes (the in-person ones, anyway). Doin' a web-based class, which was unheard of the last time I was in college. So it's weird.
Still, there are benefits. Apparently, some of...

My b-day is 13 October, and I'm solidly Libra. I also follow pretty well with my oriental sign, that being a cock. No jokes, please, that's just how it is...

This determines your final resting place according to Dante's Divine Comedy. You only get ten minutes to do it from when the page loads, but it's adorable. As for me? I'm just fucked.

I guess I'm ranted out for the time being. Been a pretty decent few days. Had a work-day at my new school, did a light hang and focus among other things (three onstage electrics and the catwalk). I'm doing another degree, this time in technical theater, and it was good to finally meet not just the space I'll be spending most of my time in...

I greatly appreciate the time and effort you must have put into that e-mail you sent me...everything you mentioned made perfect sense, and it has left me with a much greater appreciation for my sometimes misunderstood sick sense of humor. Thank you very much for the boost.
I have a friend who's going to the AI of Portland this quarter, perhaps I'll come visit him around that time and we'll go check it out

Looks like when disasters hit everywhere but the US, lots of damage and death can be reported by the US media. But when we have our own unprecedented disaster, NO ONE DIES. Or better yet, no one can be shown to have died...

Two questions for you...
Why would you want to see a bunch of dead bodies, is the story of them not enough to hit you, do you have to see the dead people to believe it happened?
The other question is would you like to be that dead body being broadcast, printed, and talked about all so a news program or a newspaper could get more people to like their product more? This just leads into america and how people have become acustom to seeing blood and gore!

My own musical stylings are all over the fucking board. It really depends on who i am working with i suppose. One of my biggest problems of lately is that one of my methods entails Reason. . . the 1st version. How frustrating. Not lo-fi enough to be filrhy and not nearly recent/powerful enough to construct mindboggling sounds to use in songs.
For a while i used to spend hours trying to get the sounds to sound less reason-y. I've recently given up on that to focus on other aspects because it's futile now with that version of reason. So if nothing else, i'd love to see your sound synthesis methods and whatnot.
I'm sure theres more, but another time
