I've been gone for a pretty long time, but..

It's not really gotten too much better, but it's quiet relaxed at least. Better not to complain about the decent life I'm having right now rather than looking a gifted horse in the mouth.. Well, I have moved and everything is done with the other house, that was a major thing. I've still paying several fees which.. once again I've fallen behind on a bit because getting a job around these parts is getting practically impossible (I'm still trying, I wish there was something that I really enjoyed falling in my lap, but that's not realistic...) Well, on another note, I'm still wanting to become known in the Esports area, but I can't do much because I'm lacking consoles/games/gear.. and I really would spend money on getting all that again and getting a TV, yet.. I know I can't just spend money on things I really want to do over things I need to do... I don't want to be one of the people who complain that their income isn't enough when all they do is buy pure luxury... sigh...

It would be amazing to get help getting started once again... I know I'm good.. I know I can do well with others and I can do a lot of other things, but without anything, sponsors or any real income to help myself out.. I can't get anywhere.. anyways, dreams are just dreams, they may be a reality, one day, but if not.. it's okay..

I hope everyone is doing alright.. I may do a post here and there again just to vent or talk to myself/commentate to myself haha..

Sorry for everyone following my blog.

[1]
[ Listening to: songs by Luck Her ] [2]
I'm very sorry to everyone who has been following my blog, or even realized that I stopped posting, but things have been going on worse than usual and for some reason, I haven't been able to keep myself together or on track/multitask-ive? as before..

I might as well rant for a minute then..

Lately, I've been more depressed as usual, as most people are, at least under my assumption and what I've seen with most people. I guess, one of the issues deals with finances, which a few are my fault, driving tickets, which actually is part of the reason I started a blog to make a bit of cash here and there to help out with those and other fines, and then there is the issue with a court cost for something I don't recall even doing, but so far, it seems like the court is going to go in favor of the "non-Hispanic" individual... I'm not calling "bs" or anything about how the United States works, even though I do believe there is something clearly wrong with it, but I guess there's going to be a major set back.. Those being the financial issues, aside from me moving sometime here soon to a new house because of a potential foreclosure.. sigh, what a surprise.. anyways..

There are other issues that have been going on with me, not saying I purely have it bad compared to others, but at the moment, I've been having medical issues, that clearly have gotten worse throughout the years, that doctors clearly have not figured out what is wrong, hell, personally I think I could just use an inhaler and possibly a very small painkiller with help figuring out why my liver/kidney may feel pickled.. or why my lungs (especially my left lung) can't expand that well.. or where the random pains in my chest come from besides "unknown reasons" as the doctors have put it.. Those being physical issues, then comes the mental issues that I've personally tried to fix myself, I tried medication, but that never really helped, even though lately, I've been thinking of seeing if I could put some money towards that and see if I can get an actually good psych/therapist that knows what they are doing and knows personal experiences rather than textbook answers/remedies..
Let me begin talking about a few problems that I feel like I helped myself or have figured out how to temporarily "fix.."
Severe Suicidal thoughts, mostly cleared and most physical attempts are gone, lately they have come back out of nowhere though...
Depression of where I can't enjoy anything nor want to do anything (the enjoying issue, I can't fix or haven't been able to do much about regardless of what I do, but 'want' to do something is to simply force yourself to do something and hope for the best, which slightly works..)
I used to see dead people... ;___; Sadly, I can't lie about that.. nor want to joke about it.. they would just be laying there or fall out of the sky onto the floor out of nowhere or they would be there already.. I know a conversation with a friend where he thought I was joking... anyways...
Eating issues.. more like, I never wanted to eat nor do I want to now, but I force myself to eat as much as I can.. : / not really a good thing, but if I don't, I would simply not eat at all..
My memory is starting to go A-wall on me and I simply can't remember as well nowadays..
I feel like my reading/spelling issues are coming back.. : / it feels like dislexia, but it's not at least I'm sure it's not.. just temporary issues, where I would spells words backwards like... "sdrawkcabs" without even realizing it.. or I would swap certain letters like.. "raed" when I mean "read" or I would simply be forgetting words like "the, a, and or other words" : / but, idk..

Well, enough of the pity party, : / I just have to get myself through this and think of something....
.__.; sorry for people who actually care about my blog and wanted to keep reading, I'm trying...

I'll try to post some time soon about the bill that may sensor a lot of the internet or more like, where you can't upload/stream any videos, movies, documents or anything without direct consent of any company or you can be fined a few thousand dollars (u.s.a only) or even get 5 years in prison for simply uploading a video game trailer/review with 10second footage... sad to say that is extreme, but we can't do much.... like I said, hopefully I post things up about it.. : /

v.v thanks people.. sorry once again for not keeping people updated..

Another day of a not so brilliant bost.. XD

[ 1 ]
There's not much to say about this, haha...
Simply that two days ago there was a "Where's Wally" Guinness world record break of having so many wally's in one area. Oh, and Waldo is the name is used for the U.S. version of "Where's Wally(Waldo)" and Wally for other countries.

If anyone has suggestions for what you may be interested in, that would be great of you guys to post asking if you want something in particular, but if not, that's fine. :3 Just curious to other's opinions.

Not much to talk about today...
I've not really done anything, it's only 10am though.

I guess, I'll keep the post simple today.

I woke up (no breakfast) to my alarm on my cell that was ringing at the wrong time and I haven't been able to sleep for some bizzare reason.. I also woke up to it raining and hearing my laptop crashing, I'm wondering how long it was crashed for still.... Just bored, I guess.

Oh, if someone feels like making suggestions of anything they feel like hearing about, that would be nice to hear, if not, that's fine as well.

Alice('s): Madness and Alice: Madness Returns


                                           [ 1 ]
[ Listening to:  I'm a monster by Lil Wayne ] [ 2 ]
Firstly, I'm not too familiar with the entire series nor know about every little detail myself, but from what I casually glanced at, it has caught my interest.

Almost everyone knows about the series of "Alice In Wonderland" and possibly have seen the film or read the book when we younger. He was filled with several interesting concepts and rather peculiar drawing styles; It had  a unique way of play on words or elaborate wordplay. Well, in all the original story (the Disney aired one, not the very original one) was what I grew up with and it presented a brilliant concept in a more friendly style, which should be for children rather than the very first Alice, but I would suggest it for people now.

In rough, the story is about a girl who had memories about living in a place named "Wonderland." This world was her home away from home, but as people see it now, the way away from home, is sometimes better our actual home. Well, in this self created memory, she uses things that have happened in her life and those small things impact her Wonderland. We all grasp the concept of the importance of time and it's significance in the role of a dream or memory: time flies, time exist, but in all, it doesn't play a role in self created memories nor in dreams. Another example, of "real life experiences" affecting her dreams...
Well, let me put it like this real quick.
Dreams is the idea presented by Disney's Alice.
Memories are what the original author and the American McGee's Alice lives off of.
Disney's being more comprehensive to younger viewers and the original and followers are for those who view things as more realistic.

Back to what I was saying...
Another example, of "real life experiences" affecting her dreams/memories was the figure of the rabbit or white animals or variations/reincarnations of white. The color white usually has the connotation of "savior" or "leads the way to enlightenment." In all forms of Alice, the rabbit and white figures all guide her to her next location of where she should be, which I guess is very straightforward.

The thing with McGee's, and the original and the movie that came out not long ago, have followed more of the realistic thing because it's not always cheerful and the actual thought of a memory. A memory has more of an impact on us both physically and mentally, which is rather impressive, but the issue of  "not socially acceptable" is brought out in all the three, technically four.
Let's take for example Alice McGee's current version of Alice: Madness Returns, the beginning starts with a quick narration of her being in a "house for the inept and insane" which everyone knows, that Alice was depicted as someone who had a double life which impacted her normal life, for the better. The thing in Madness Returns, she is there because she lost her family and her house in a fire and people believed that she suffered severe issues and was being needed to be locked up. With locking her up, her once Wonderland was now corrupted with the terrible past and her current depression. Which I guess, you can call it the Alternative Reality to Wonderland where there is more bad than good to her once Wonderland, the Wonderland most grew up with.

Which I guess, is a quick and rough explanation of the series, I can explain more, if you guys would like, but here's a videos to game play to McGee's versions of Alice, which personally is pretty good.

The very top video (1) is a play through (the first part of a commentator's run-through) of the first game of American McGee's Alice, I believe on Playstation and PC?
The second video (3) is a trailer to the second installment of American McGee's Alice.
The third video (4) is the first episode of the actual game by my favorite commentator channel, The Yogscast [ 5 ].

Grooveshark

 [ 1 ]

[ Listening to: All's Well That Ends Well (full album) by Chiodos ] [ 2 ]

Do you feel like listening to music, but actually being able to choose what you want to listen without monthly cost, over-sized ads on every corner and/or annoying survery's or signups?

:l No... but seriously..

About 4 years ago, 2007?, I remember being in school and never being able to use any website to listen to music because of barracuda (filtering software) and there would be some days where I would stay a little after with my mother (who taught ESL classes in another building that still belonged to my school) and I would play games online there. Well, I eventually got tired because in game music sometimes gets very boring and so I decided to do a hunt for a site that allowed me to listen to music, found millions. The issue was, I couldn't choose all the music from one artist, I would have to listen to music from one band and then a random one, sometimes without a connection in the slightest to the one prior to it.
So after a few days of looking, I came across Grooveshark (back then, it was called Listen.Grooveshark , to me at least, until they change the URL to simply Grooveshark).

Well, hail Mary, this was what I exactly wanted:
I could listen to full CD's no monthly charges and at no cost. ;)
I could even listen to CD's before they were out.
I could randomize it if I wanted to.
I could browse people and genres I never even heard of.
And, back then, my playlist would always save without requirement of making an account, even though that isn't a real hassle.
ETC ETC.

Anyways, over the years, the added Themes (which at the moment, I personally like the Deadmau5 one that strobes? I guess.) ability to listen to music anywhere you want to via phone or anything (if you pay for that, which is now rather ridiculously expensive, but fully worth it since you would paying more for one CD rather than unlimited usage of millions of songs for less than that.) and several other things.

Personally, I still like it better than Last.FM and Pandora, hopefully they get it on the Xbox 360, PS3 and/or Wii and hell, the usage would be out of the roof and I think last.FM would almost go down under.

Anyways, that's enough. I like the site, check it out if you're tired of using youtube to listen to music.
;) Or for those who know.... "repeatyoutube.com/?????" to listen to the same song without clicking it.

Google Chrome Instant.

 [ 1 ]

[ Listening to: Subwoofer Lullaby by C418 ] [ 2 ]
Well, this post was supposed to be up yesterday, but the point is that it's up now.

Google chrome keeps trying to put out new things to helps us out in any small way or big way possible and this time, I guess they shaved off a few seconds from their already preset record.

Google Chrome Instant grants the ability to pre-load pages before clicking on them which theoretically would save time. Personally, I assume they are going to pre-load the first link and possibly the second just from mire speculation. I mean, I rarely browse the other links they load, so it would be safest for the to do that. From the video the time saved from loading all icons was about 5~7 seconds with some deviation, I'll assume 1 something, is saved because all ads and icons are loaded/loading as you type or move your mouse to the actual website hot link.

Strange thing is, would it technically count as an impression or a site view if Google views the site and you don't actually click it?

Anyways, personally, I won't be using it since I actually use SRWare Iron rather than the actual Google Chrome for some bizzare reason.. haha..

A conversation my Mom and I were having. . . (And A Long Rant, I guess)

[ 1 ]

[ Listening to: Crystal Castles (Self titled full album) by Crystal Castles ] [ 2 ]

Normally we don't ever talk because we are busy with our own lives, but weren't doing anything so we decided to talk.
This is what was said (nothing, too serious, just a thought)
(I wrote about it a day or two ago, as a status, then I realized it was too long, so I saved it hoping I would finish):


Just had a 2 and a half hour discussion with my mom about what things would be like if Google actually had a hand in controlling our daily lives rather than the government.

Main point:
If you did a service to help others live, then you should get a service that should help you live. = Google
Do a service, get money back and be able to pay 3/4th of what you need and 1/4 go to someone who doesn't deserve it and go into debt and live knowing that someone else is staying alive with money they didn't earn nor deserve is happily taking advantage of you working for the cost of 2 people while on living for a half or 3/4 of what an "actual average life" should be like. = The U.S. Government

Which do you prefer?

Google:
You do for others what's necessary to live while those who do nothing (including slightly myself, for now), but pawn off of those without doing any service.
Service for service = The life you truly earn
The U.S. Government (and several others/all others):
You work to receive a payment that would later lose 15% on taxes that would maybe go to those people who lie to get welfare and other misc. things that aren't needed since they do not deserve. While at the same time, paying for your life and possible children with less money than what you need, while the government prints off money without a care in the world.
Example: The 1 trillion dollar bailout to companies we do not truly need to exist.
The trillion dollars practically came out of nowhere.

A story my mother shared with me was:
Years ago, she was in a bit of a problem, she was a bit short on cash from her teaching job and she needed some to get us by when we were all about 9~13 years old, my siblings and I). One of the things, she believed, was that preferably she is going to try to cut out what she needed to give to us - it didn't work. She would try to use up what change she had around to see if she can make the bill. She was going to be short on other payments - etc etc. She decided to go to the local "Workone" office, I believe, may be another, but she went there to ask for help from welfare. She asked for assistance and she "only" asked for 250, I believe. They asked her for paperwork that took a few days to process and a few hours to even put together to explain our situation. Almost a week later and a few days before the rush of bills, she received a check from the mail for less than 200 (180 if I recall her telling me) and that they explained to her that the situation wasn't reasonable enough. She took out a small loan from a friend (or bank, I don't recall) to pay off the rest of the bill.
When I heard her explain that, I was wondering why she didn't get the 250?:
Headstart teacher (Kind of a fundamental step in a child's education) making 23,000$ or so a year, at least now and the occasional side job to tie down what the 23K couldn't.
4 Children who were 9~11 years old with a father who wasn't there nor paying his child support (that wasn't an issue, just thought to point it out that there's no income besides her 23K, house cleaning and ESL {English As A Second Language})
We weren't living on much, aka no cable, no internet, no dishwasher, but phone service in a two room apartment and occasionally letting us go to a daycare since she needed to work as a teacher in ESL in the afternoon.
So you see that there is some logic, at least I think there is, to why she should have gotten it.
A reasonable job, more necessary than others, but she couldn't get the amount she wanted, alright fine. I understand, the government couldn't help our situation. Ironic, there are several people in this not so great town that live off welfare.

I'm not pointing fingers at those with reason, but I know a guy, no names, who got 400$ for being "slightly blind" (he could still see quite well...) from the government, he also had some sort of "mental problem," but I've known him for years and he doesn't have any real issue and got 200$+ a month for that and another issue and was given money from the government for that. On top of his job at a local movie theater that got him 150 a week? (19 hour weeks or something...)
No children, near the age of 18~20 and one day, he requested assistance from the workone office, I talked about earlier, so that he could pay he car bill/ticket because he got pulled over for going to a concert or something.
He asked for 300~400, something like reckless driving, speeding and a violation or something.
He got 440, the next day aka more than what he even asked for.

So personally this is where I kind of wished google were to use the sources they have, if they have them aka dream thinking/wishing, and actually do something.

Overthrow the U.S, great! Go for it.
People like my mother who have legit enough reason to ask for 250 so that she could help her children and not get that while some guy who doesn't do an important job nor has children gets more than what he asked AND got it with almost no paperwork.
I guess what I'm trying to say she is trying to help people in my community while helping herself.
Headstart crucial step in helping children, depends on who's perspective.
ESL, she helps non-speaking English adults to learn English so that they can perform in this society.
Cleaned houses for others for a minimum wage.
4 Children, no father because he divorced her.
She gets less than what she asks for.
-
Movie theater employee lives a decent portion of his life off of the government for things he can easily put up with and then he talks about a problem, I've yet to see once in the last few years, but he gets more than what he asks for the government.
Oh and the fact that he gets about 1~2K back from taxes, while my mother gets 50~400$ back or she would owe some back.

Anyways: this is how I view it:
If you're a doctor, then you should be treated to live the life of a doctor.
Sit on your ass all day and go to work for a movie theater to serve popcorn and stand around while everyone is inside, then you should get to live the life of just that.
Basically, in the far back of my mind, I do want to believe google were to do something in a few years because we are basically putting in all the information we have into them.
Personally, I don't see a problem, yes, we do lose our privacy, but at the same time, we are practically losing it already.
Most people don't even have money in the bank, let alone anything in their house, so what do they have to lose.
Rich people who have more than plenty for being a football star or the biggest/newest rapper who puts out mostly bad music making millions well, hell you can gtfo with what you have, go to another country if you don't like getting back for the "service" you do.
I'm not saying music is bad and personally I do believe we need music, but to live like a king or three while there are doctors working overtime to make scratch compared to the work they are doing to save lives. I think there's unbalancement.
Service for service.
Not service for money that will only pay for the life of a half of a person.
What I even mean by that?
That person I was talking about earlier, gets his money from taxes that were taken out of my mother's actual job's check not out of thin air.
We pay for others to live, but the government can do a Trillion dollar bailout for car companies who personally don't help us and better yet to think.
Government turned around, looked on floor and saw a suit case filled with one trillion dollars "just in case" cause we casually have it laying around because we are in debt and "We are the Government and we can make money whenever we want."

Sigh.
Another reason to believe Google could take over and sustain us for a bit and hell we could try to help back.
-
Google is used everywhere, all over the world.
We confide in Google, already, whenever we have a question and that we can't go tell other people. Basically we trust Google with our personal lives.
Google has been creating things to make things easier in our lives, hell, we get Google kind of free and we get Youtube, kind of free.
Google has been trying to get adsense working for people who want to try without an arm or a leg, but free.
So you can say Google supports the real average person and not statistics.
Google has created their own, TV, phone?, random products, coming out with a Google Chrome OS and some people live their lives off Google's Adsense and etc etc.
Personally, I've learned more using Google than government-run schooling.
Personally, I've trusted Google more to ask about personal questions compared to my "teachers or doctor's, to some realistic extent."
Personally, I'm even trying to work out something and hope for a good shot using blogspot and adsense, both run by Google, to do something to help me get by in my days.
I don't have much besides basics, which is fine, but occasionally other things would be nice, like a way to pay the two tickets I was given for an unjust reason that weren't/couldn't be overturned. <__< Damn cops making up reasons to meet their quota.

I mean, seriously,
Have Google and people, like us, try to do something for a change in our government or do we sit around and watch our government (U.S.) send more troops to other countries to die for a reason that isn't plausible.
I mean, if we stop living off of money and start living off of "do service and get treated human" or "do a service and get money and live the life of half a person while you pay for someone else to live their's?"

Ideas Ideas, she and I eventually explained more, here and there, in detail.
Obviously, you see why I'm for "My Google Dream," but the most important point she made in saying I should just drop it was this:
Sadly, that would be a great lifestyle to live in, I know I really need it, but the government is here and they help with what they can. Dreams aren't great, dreams help you get through the day, but you have to remember, you can eat a dream and be full, dreaming doesn't pay in the country. Sorry.

I agreed, obviously, but I knew I wished things were different, but hey..

One thing I know is this,
When the government isn't for the people anymore, we must try to overturn the government in some way to make it, once-again, "the people's government."

To believe these ideas are crazy, I would have to agree, but I do recall they called the man who thought the world was actually a sphere/globe and not flat, was crazy.

Well, you guys, let's do something and prove that we do need a new government, I'm not saying do anything extremely rash, but we need to live life a bit better rather than live in a country that we have been losing for the past 100 years, especially these last 20.

: / I haven't been on here in a while

[ Listening to: For Lack Of A Better Name (full album) by Deadmau5 ] [ 1 ]
So there's a after and before photo of what happened to my screen, which I guess the green screen should go second, but it doesn't matter, for now.

Well, one day, being the ninja I am, I decided to try to juggle my power cord, a piece of watermelon, my laptop, a phone and a book, well, I can say I dropped the phone on purpose, that was fine and next thing you know, I accidently dropped my laptop, which you see what happened. It took a while to get it fixed after trial and error of handling my laptop. I was kind of devastated about what happened since I'm online almost everyday for a few hours, pretty sad, but I like learning and viewing Youtube. [ 2 ]

I guess, I can now go back to posting, more often.

I Just Had A Strange Dream.

[ Listening to: Deadmau5 Ustream Live 9-15-2010 ]

This is the only thing I'm going to write about for now.

What a strange thing to say:
"Dammit, I can't believe people from 1949 exist and whenever they exist they are already dead, but when I'm talking to them, I'm the only one who sees them or hears them. That man's father and the little kid are real right?"
And someone responded with:
"what man are you talking about? The kid's father? He's been dead several years ago, but that kid just talks to himself, but he says he sees his father.. we don't.."



Which, I'm for some reason, that seems really important:
Another thing I saw in my dream, was when I opened my bi-fold wallet, I looked in there and I saw a 20, a 10 and a 5, but a thing about dreams is that you aren't supposed to be able to see proper text or anything in them. I mean, unless that rule doesn't apply to numbers?

I just needed to post this somewhere.

Nice Guys


[ 1 ]

[ Listening to: Deadmau 5 Ustream Live 9 (2010) ]
      This is a video I recently saw on the front page of youtube, but normally I would never click on a video like this (aka overly edited vlogger who only craves attention....)

     Anyways, what I'm trying to say with the video link is the fact that this is true for the most part in several situations, I won't deny the possibility that "nice guys" do eventually get lucky/what they deserved here and there, but chances are being "alpha" is more than likely going to succeed.

     I guess I understand why this is true, simply because I would prefer a wife (or husband in the females' eyes') to be more dominate/demanding in what she believes would be best for potential children. True, most people don't think of the other being the mother/father for their potential child the immediate second of meeting someone, but I do believe that instinct does have some role in deciding what we personally want for us in the future.

    I've been quoted to say, " I like women/girls/females that are overly nice, very obedient and likes to accept everyone for whatever their problem" or something of the very stereotypical manner of the perfect girlfriend, but the types of relationships I've always had started in me choosing or being chosen by girls who are "very rude/demanding.." Personally, I never noticed nor care much, but I guess, maybe I'm trying to give myself reason to why I choose them... the way I see it, if it continues and things were to progress between "us" that I would be having my wife actually be able to stand right next to my child as an "alpha mother" rather than a "beta/meek mother.."
 
   I don't know... Just (some) commentary.

Chicago


[1]

[ Listening to: Just Can't Get Enough by The Black Eye Peas ]

           I was born there, and I visit several times a year, simply because I love it and miss almost every aspect of it. It is one of the very few places where I feel like I belong in some very small aspect in comparison to all places I've been too, which isn't really many.

          There are many things to do while in Chicago, but I prefer to stay near my favorite restaurant and the many flea markets. You can go downtown to visit several sites, the museums, the "reflective bean" and surrounding areas there, you can visit the beach, visit the Sears tower and go shopping at the many shopping destinations there accompanied by the higher tier food restaurants. On the outskirts of Chicago, and a bit past, you can visit many parks, several flea markets, visit Chinatown and visit my favorite restaurants. Most of this is accessible by metro or public bus transportation which I believe is pretty well priced.
         There are several other possibilities that you can do to keep yourself entertained with family, friends or by yourself such as:
Visit Navy Pier
Visit any local events such as comic conventions, Ford City Mall or any other mall, parades or even concerts.
(For sports fans: White Sox {U.S. Cellular Field} Stadium, Cubs Stadium {Wrigley Field}, and several other stadiums that you can visit, if you are in season that is.)
Visit Six Flags or go to the lake and attempt to get a hold of a boat temporarily or take a boat tour in downtown.


        Personally, I go there to visit family, friends and to simply relax, but there's always the occasion where flea markets and going to my favorite Hispanic restaurant (Ashland and 43rd, named Antonio something. Haha, I was just there a few days ago).

       Good luck to who ever goes, honestly it's a fun time and a good experience.

YouTube - Design the next deadmau5 head with Talenthouse



DEFINITELY had to put up a post about this, preferably you can find more information on his site [1] or at the Talenthouse site [1] at a later time, but I think all of it is mostly out there.

Anyways, this is what I've understood things as:
1: Design a mau5 Head based off the templates that gave you on the site (using photo shop or any other paint program within reasonable design ability [aka NOT PAINT Trolol. ])
2: Submit and then wait for judging if you are one of the top entries and wait for a response to see if you get a prize.

Anyways, the prizes are 2 VIP passes to a show in L.A. while having your transportation and hotel paid for you and your guest; you also get to see where the helm you design during the show, I believe.
The other prize are a total of 5 (separate)VIP pass(es) to the closest Deadmau5 concert and the other prizes are artwork(s) signed by Deadmau5.

Anyways, I need to think of something to design.. haha, I know I would f***ing love the Grand Prize.
        I saw this a while ago, but I didn't have a place to talk about it at.

Anyways, this is a robot named "Nao" from a few years ago and it seems like there was a preset function to this robots' movements, but even then it seems like they were headed in a positive direction.

There was a few robots a few years back produced by sony, but they stopped production and rather decided to go towards the video game product aspect... .-.

President Obama and Her Majesty


[ Listening to: God Save The Queen. ]

          Usually I would never post anything that has to do with the presidency or of the sort, but the Queen is another case. I mean, I don't want to say I know more about any other country or their history better than my own, both US history and Hispanic history, but there's a sense of common sense that Obama was in the wrong and he should have known it.

          I guess what I'm trying to say is that, in this country, I don't feel that much "known respect" that we obviously should be able to guess or feel, but in the video and every day life over there, when the song "God save the Queen" comes on, we should easily be able to tell that we need to be quiet whenever that comes on. Maybe I don't know much about the Queen or anything; however, it seems that he should have realized that the Queen didn't respond to him during the toast or that everyone else moved from original stance to a reverend stance.

A Friendly Thanks and "just commentary."

[ Listening to: Exquisite Corpse (full album) by Warpaint ]
These passed few weeks, I've been looking for new bands or just music in general to listen to which isn't a group that I've already listened to 24/7.

I've tried to go back to music that I listened to when I was little or grew up with, The clash, The Smiths, Blink 182, sum 41, five Iron Frenzy, A fine Frenzy and others of the manner... and I guess I've not really found anything new that would compare to the love for music I had back then. It's rather a disappointment over. Possibly I'm not searching the highest mountains nor the lowest of depths, but I try to look around and hope to find something new or something I've yet to hear. Which I guess that makes today slightly different in the music sense to me.

I found a blog by accident or just going through people's comment and it's the blog of a girl named "Faun." [1] She suggests "new/uprising indie groups" which, normally I would overlook since it's more bad in ratio of good/bad, but I went through a few and found a gem named "Warpaint." [2] I have only listened to a few, but I think I am starting to get one of the bands I'm going to listen to during the clear night skies to or during road trips.

Regardless, Warpaint is composed of female artist that slightly remind me of "A Fine Frenzy" [3] and slightly of "Gregory And The hawk," but with a psychedelic feel... which is rather nice to hear since it's been a genre/feel that I haven't looked into much.

I just give her thanks for a new find, check her blogs out and see if you find something you would like.
I know I did.

Terraria (Now on steam and V. 1.0.2)

[ Currently listening to: Dance Department by Deadmau5 ]

Before this game came out, I saw it on Youtube channel/user "BlueXephos" [1] which at the time was at pre alpha I believe. They usually do reviews or simple commentaries over any new game on PC that seems fun to play, which they have done a great job with each game, but they only did one episode with Terraria. I later decided to watch the episodes/commentary from a guy name "PaperbatVG," [2] who is a hyper active commentator. He went on to do about 30 episodes over Terraria, which I watched a handful of and didn't want to spoil what I would later spend 30~40 hours in.

Time for a description:
"Dig, fight, explore, build! Nothing is impossible in this action-packed adventure game. The world is your canvas and the ground itself is your paint.
Grab your tools and go! You can do many things in Terraria: make weapons and fight off a variety of enemies in numerous biomes, dig deep underground to find accessories, money, and other useful things, gather wood, stone, ores, and other resources to create everything you need to make the world your own and defend it. Build a house, a fort, even a castle, and people will move in to live there and perhaps even sell you different wares to assist you on your journey. But beware, there are even more challenges awaiting you... Are you up to the task?" [3] - Terraria Wiki.

Well, I can't write a description of that manner or that interesting, but I can say it like this:
Terraria is a 2D mixture of the several great elements of the game called "Minecraft" [4] and feel of 2D 8 bit, more 16 bit, of old games, which is a breath of fresh air or air that's been cycled a few times through out atmosphere. Terraria consist of a wide variety of weapons including pick axes, hammers, wands, flails, guns and many more, with the ability to explorer the dungeon in each map and availability of having bosses and having different "leveled" monsters. The game has the aspect of which minecraft has been made famous for.. "building from scratch," one great feature that I'm more than glad they kept. In terraria you build houses and weapons using dirt, sand, mud, clay, wood, copper, iron, silver, gold and many more types of materials which are more than plenty considering that minecraft has just as many, but has been publicly available for over a span of a year and a half. Terraria also includes the ability to obtain NPCs over time and effort; each NPC has a unique feature in the game instead of having the same variety of NPCs like other games who hold the same outcome with different visuals.
I can't write great reviews, but I'm more than happy to say, it's worth the vary low price they have for it since I easily put 20 hours into it, before the my laptop was wiped clean, and 25 hours+ on my second character which I later added another 10~15 hours collecting almost every item in the game, which games today, lack the attachment I had with this game.
Retail console game : 60$ with 5 hour campaign possibly 1 day worth of online, besides the massive multi-player games.
Terraria : 9.99$ with 50~60 hours and several hours worth of watching others commentate on it; you can also play with your friends with multi-player, so include however many hours you would play on there.

Today and The Passed Few Weeks.

I've been trying to look for a job, I'm not asking much so I guess the first thing I should do is go out and look for one. Pretty simple, the times I couldn't go physically looking, I would always try to phone in or look via the internet for online job applications. I've been suggested to look at every location and try whichever job offer regardless of the job, which I have fully accepted in trying.
I'm not a pro at getting jobs, which is also quite alright, but the a few tips that I have been talked to about have usually worked. Not very good hiring rate in my town, but an interview and a little bit of faith and luck should do the trick wherever you live.

The first tip in acquiring a job is obviously going to be apply wherever possible within reasonable limits.
Jobs you shouldn't look for are the ones that you are obviously not qualified for even in the slightest.
Jobs you should look for are basic to the general range of what education level you have and anything in between.
Another tip is to give yourself a little slack or slight appreciation to what task(s)/abilities you do have whenever you fill out an application, I'm not saying to write down that you were Obama's security/bodyguard when applying for a security job, but try to "extend" what you have done as if it were a more important job than what you actually did. (Yeah, that's terribly worded, but it'll work for now... haha....)
One of the best tips, I have ever received from random googling, people who have been hired or general questions asked to friends via skype, facebook or even twitter, is the simple fact that you should actually go in and ask over the status of your application, better yet, call in and check up on how it's doing. Every interview I have ever gone to has actually been set during the phone call I made a few days after turning in my application.
Final tip, from what I know, try to seem presentable and wearing rather nice and suggestive clothes.
If I were an employer, 9 times out of 10, I would not hire someone who gave the image of "I just fell down a hill during a storm and shot up a few drugs..." well, chances are you wouldn't be looking for a job if that was your case... You get the image though.

Well, anyways, I've had a few interviews these passed few weeks and one today, but I've not had much luck only because I've had a few issues with the connection to the staff who worked there and a few rules that were not plausible.

Good luck to anyone who is looking for one and I hope you guy(s) or girl(s) find one.
I know I'm going to need it.

A Little About Myself

My name is Daniel.
I'm interested in a wide variety of activities and events that happen to improve or hold back the community.
I like listening to a moderate spectrum of genres of music, which include: Deadmau5, The Smiths, Hellogoodbye, Five Iron Frenzy, The Prodigy, Armin Van Buuren, Super Mash Bros., Chamillionaire, The Cure, and well, anything, but at the moment, I can't think of many, which is alright. :3
I have had an interest in video games for most of my years of living, who hasn't?; therefore, I'm sure I've played practically every system that started after the first Atari all the way to 360, but not the DSi or Ps3.
A few of my favorite games of all time would be:
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)
Kirby's Superstar (SNES)
Maplestory (PC)
Runescape  (before the major patches/updates like HP value change, Wildy change and Graphics change haha.....) (PC)
Call Of Duty: 2 (360)
Call Of Duty: 4 (360)
Super Smash Brothers: Melee (GC)
Street Fighter: Puzzle Fighter (360)
Gex The gecko Series (N64)
Double Dragon (NES)
Contra: Hard Corps. (Sega Genesis)
Gears Of War (360)
Several Byond games from back in the day, but.. I don't recall them anymore.. x3
Final Fantasy Series (Nintendo all the way to Playstation's Final Fantasy 9, after that, I wasn't really a fan)
I could name plenty, but there's no importance, just a general idea.
Last thing about me, I love to learn about new technology, especially when they have a new feature or simply a new OS, ;) look out Google Chrome OS, not much of an OS, but I would still like to try and give my evaluation/appreciation since I'm online practically all day and I carry my laptop, or have it next to my side, all day.

One more thing, before I start posting random ideas and thoughts.
I love deep thinking or over examination over the human mind, actions or any reason to help cure/fight depression and most importantly, I love theories of many sorts with "reasonable reasons."
