  1. My Facebook feed has been blowing up about Phil Robertson all damn day. Getting pretty tired of it.

     

    It's okay, though, in a day or two nobody will even remember it.

     

    One of my friends posted this today:

     

    "Phil Robertson

    Phil Robertson 

    Phil Robertson

    Christmas

    Phil Robertson 

    Phil Robertson

    Facebook right now."

     

    I thought that was pretty good.

  2. But he seems to know that a pressing with the actual artwork with Gambino's face on it has been pressed. From the way I read it, it seems to me like he knows what he's talking about. But maybe that's just me hoping for an actual pressing so I don't have to pay out the ass or search for one of these 'bootlegs' in a town where no one buys vinyl and there's only one record store near here.

  3. Local record store didn't get it so I just went on to Target and bought the CD. I looked at the tracklist and apparently Macklemore was supposed to be on earth: the oldest computer, but I guess they couldn't get rights for it or something in time cause it comes with a revised track 18 on a separate sheet of paper.

     

    Edit: By revised track 18 on a separate sheet, I meant like the credits for the song, not like a download or something. Idk if anyone took it that way, but just gonna clear that up now.

  4. we had a johnny rockets in our mall back home. always just seemed like "mall food" to me

     

    I really like cheeseburgers and milkshakes haha and the atmosphere is pretty cool. I know it's not that great but I just love the little 'diner' vibe it gives off.

     

    To add, the only things I ever eat anymore are chicken fingers, pizza, cheeseburgers. 

  5. We don't have Johnny Rockets in Texas so.

     

    Johnny Rockets is so good, haven't eaten there in a while. I actually forgot about it and there's not one around here. The most comparable thing is Steak N Shake and the closest one is ~45 minutes away, but me and my friends have taken a couple trips just to go there cause I love it so much haha

  6. I definitely listened to different music than normal, but here's my top picks.

     

    1. Paramore - Paramore

    2. The Blackest Beautiful - letlive.

    3. Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die! - Panic! At The Disco

    4. Collapsible Lung - Relient K

    5. What You Don't See - The Story So Far

    6. PRISM - Katy Perry

    7. Hollow Bodies - blessthefall

    8. Bangerz - Miley Cyrus

    9. Because The Internet - Childish Gambino

    10. Burials - AFI

     

    Honorable Mention:

    Nothing Was the Same - Drake

    ARTPOP - Lady Gaga

    Modern Vampires of the City - Vampire Weekend

     

     

     I know some of those sound really stupid, especially Miley being on there but listening and singing along to Bangerz with some of my friends is some of the best memories of the year, so it needed to be on there haha. And I actually hated P!ATDs album at first but it really grew on me since it came out. 

  7. I feel that my age group was force fed college starting in Middle School. I was told all sorts of crazy shit growing up, " If you don't go to college you will be homeless", If you don't go to college you will never move out of your parents house.", " If you don't go to college you will never have a job or family."

    Sure kids went to school and have successful careers, but in my age group(31) for everyone with a nice money making career 3 are working minimum wage jobs and burying themselves deeper and deeper in debt.

    I never went to school, I am happily married and own a home, am I a millionaire? No. Am I miserable? No. Am I comfortable? Yes. Thats all you can really ask for.

    I definitely don't think everyone needs college. My brother didn't go and now he works a normal job weekdays and then runs sound and lights for concerts/plays on weekends. He's definitely comfortable financially and he just bought his own house. I just feel like college was right for me.
  8. You a full sail kid?

    I go to school for entertainment business, I know it wasn't the smartest move in most people's eyes but I don't think I would have been able to concentrate in a different major. If it doesn't pertain to my interests, I can't focus. We do learn a lot though. Plus, the industry is based mostly on experience, so degrees don't get people far anyway. I mostly do it to make my family think I'm not a waste of space. (Which makes me sound like a trust fund kid, but I'm not. I got a few rad scholarships and I'm in debt for the rest. Hollah.)

    No, I'm going to UNA.

    And I totally get that having a degree isn't going to give me an edge over someone who doesn't have one in this industry, but it's not going to be a disadvantage. I definitely have learned a lot this past semester, it was just the project that was really stupid.

    Our program makes us have a minor as well so I plan on getting one in marketing. And hopefully that will look good on my resume.

    Believe me I'm taking every opportunity that's being given to me, and I'm trying to start booking shows for one of my friend's band. It's just been hard to do that right now with finals and everything.

    Also this post wasn't just for Logan, I had already read all the other comments. I just answered that one first

  9. My first Music Industry (called Entertainment Industry here) class wraps up on Monday with our exam. Our final project was a 4 page paper, that as long as you had the minimum of 4 pages and 5 sources you got a 100, no questions asked. To get an A in that class I have to make a 92 on this last exam, so I've been studying a good bit today for it. 

     

    ^ But Nicky's sounds really fun, hopefully as I advance throughout the Entertainment courses we get to do things like this.

     

    The only really cool thing I've been able to do was volunteer at the tobyMac a couple weeks ago.
