Hey guys. I honestly just wanted to finish off this semester and this year with a final blog post. Now, this year was, for lack of a better term, utter garbage. I hated it and I’m sure you all did as well. This wasn’t anywhere near what I expected college […]

Some time has passed and I have made yet another sort of ok Garageband beat! This time, I only used sounds from the original Garageband library, and although it could use some lyrics, I am unable to express myself through the english language and thus it remains lyric-less. I really […]
This year has got to be one of the weirdest years ever. As we entered a new decade, tensions rose between the U.S. and Iran after missile strikes killed a prominent Iranian official. The deaths of several dear celebrities (looking at you, Kobe, and Chadwick Boseman) sent shockwaves throughout the […]
So I have noticed over the years that I have always made a Christmas list but as I got older it got smaller and smaller but I think it’s time to bring it back. The famous Christmas list that my parents always dreaded to receive. I am quite spoiled and […]

This musical is a sung-through adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s 1869 novel War and Peace. In the musical, the piece is sung […]
If you didn’t know already, I’m a huge fan of cinema and love films of all genres and eras. For quite a few years now I have been a collector of physical media and have a vast array of DVDs and Blu-rays on my bookshelf. One of my favorite film […]
Hey guys, As break approaches I’ve been trying to plan out what to do with my time. I don’t want to get too involved with upcoming studies because I definitely need a reprieve. That being said, I’ve been trying to figure out small skills I can pick up over winter […]
I was feeling as though I wasn’t getting where I wanted to be fast enough with making music, so this past month I challenged myself. I started making one song a week, to keep my creative energy moving as well as to force myself to get better, faster. I tried […]
