  I dominate with my giant jaw.

Yes, I did have surgery on my face. That is to say that I had surgery on my foolish wisdom teeth. What clowns they are. Anyways, it was a surprise to me that when I was injected with the Sodium Penethol, that my consciousness was lost only moments after the fact that my orthodontist said "you might feel a pressure or warmth when this starts going into your blood stream." Afterwards, Mollie helped me out of the place when it was all over, before which I was actually crying because of how confused I was.

Although, here's the best part about my surgery: For 3-5 days I will be eligible to be EITHER a Robert Z'Dar (Maniac Cop rulez) or Ron Pearlman impersonator. I mean, how many people get to have the mandible of a thousand men? Man I'm lucky.


Really, the surgery was a breeze. No complications, no snoring or even embarrassing morning wood. I'd say that the worst part about it is running out of movies to watch and having to hold ice on my face for long periods of time.

In conclusion, I look awesome.

  Home again, home again

And now, I am home. I will be here for the summer and whatnot.

So yes, going to college is most definatly a different experience. However, you must assume that your college experience is the most typical of all experiences.

I have had the opportunity to live that generic lifestyle: Neighbors who talk to you all the time, Loud noises at 3am, idiots who say "Woo College!" and/or "Woo beer!", neighbors faking a drunken relationship with a girl whom you do not know, etc. I am glad that I decided to stay in the dorms mostly because of the fact that I have felt so isolated. Given, I do not like most people I meet and I do not intend on staying in touch with every single person that contact is made with.

It is only one more week when I can consider myself "home for the summer". Interviews, gouging of teeth and unpacking are only circumstances of work to get back home. You can visit if you like.

  Boooooring
Since I have nothing better to post, I'll divulge upon you my latest complete mix. There was a concept to it this time. I made the mix by randomly picking a point at which to start listening as my songs shuffeled and wrote 20 of them down. My shuffling music library came up with the songs I would use for the mix and I would allow my self a few liberties in finalizing it. First, I could disregard any songs that directly did not sit well with the other songs and repeats of an artist. Second, I could add two songs and change two of the songs to other songs of my choice by the same artist. Lastly, I was to make a regular music CD, so I could omit anything I wanted to make it fit in a mix, although I didn't need to use this really since all 20+2 songs fit on my CD (also, I didn't follow the rules that strictly, more like guidelines*). I don't like the name that I came up with it so much, but if there are any suggestions blahblahblah:

Update: I think I came up with a better title than "It Just Fell Out of My Head"

"Generated Shufflely"
David Bowie - Queen Bitch
XTC - Spinning Top
Spoon - Take A Walk
Republica - Ready To Go
The Zutons - Dirty Dancehall
Operation Ivy - Healthy Body
The Faint - Drop Kick the Punks
The Walkmen - The North Pole
Plasket - This One's For Pie
Neutral Milk Hotel - Communist Daughter
Pinback - Some Voices
Air - Another Day
Radiohead - Planet Telex
The Rolling Stones - She's a Rainbow
Animal Collective - Sweet Road
The Beatles - Got to Get You Into My Life
The Creatures - Standing There
The White Stripes - You've Got Her In Your Pocket
James Cotton - Cotton Crop Blues
R.E.M. - Bang and Blame
The Birthday Party - Jennifer's Veil
Beck - Side Of The Road
Amon Tobin - Lighthouse

  Assignment 2
I'm finally done with my last project for Intro to MIDI. This time its actually a MIDI song, but don't worry, it doesn't really sound like one. I also decided to name it "Impossible Funk" because the theme of the project was to take a pre-existing song titled "Nite Funk" and alter it in some way. Its "impossible" because if you were to actually write it down on ledger paper, it would probably be pretty damn difficult to play. Here is the original song: Nite Funk and this is my mix: Impossible Funk.
