How intriguing.

"Well, you could always try...NO"

Actually, if you look back on most of my posts, it's almost always complete rubbish of the top of my head. But still makes sense. Although, no-one comments. Makes me sad sometimes. Oh well.

Looked at the TV guide for tonight, found out that Doctor Who isn't on. Somewhat expected, with the season final last week, but it's still "aww". Now there won't be anything good on tonight to watch.

Oh, and I want to compose a few pieces, but don't know where to start, really. Was thinking of finale + netbook, but netbook =/= finale, that is, it doesn't have it, I think. And while Audacity can "compose" it's not "composing". Help? Oh, and it's a gift, for those asking. I mean, it's not for you if you ask, but if you are asking "What's it for?", it's a gift.

Maybe my projects fail from time to time, but it doesn't mean that nothing was made.

Seriously, how do you write all that much, Happy Apple without making it seem like you're talking complete nonsense on a big big wall of...well... a blank wall? It's big and I could put something on there, but if it's too personal it's not all that good, is it? I have no idea, so I'll continue with this.

Though, my notebook helps me remember..

"One of the few things I don't have an answer/excuse/logic to:"

Why should there be poverty when we can just "fix" it?
Because there is a lot of excess in the developed countries, etc. etc. I'm not quite a big advocate of "Save the poor!" myself. But y'now...

How I'm going to compose said pieces?
Very well, thank you.

Pessimist or Optimist, how the heck do you define someone like that?
I don't think you can.

Why do people have whims?
Because they're whimsical. Okay that was bad.

Actually, organising things is somewhat tedious, because now's the waiting time for people to spread the word that X is going on, so, please think of ideas while you're waiting. Seriously. It's early, but I don't like leaving everything to the last minute. More like the last week is more comforting to me.

Figured out why RPGs like WoW and all that jazz are so addicting. It's not when you're not playing it that it's addictive. It's when you are. Time flies, etc. etc. and people don't stop because those games have approaching-on-infinity replay value which = infinity time spent. Theoretically. Thus the reason why I like smaller games (read: 30 minutes, game over) or games I can pause/save/come back to when I'm NOT bored of it.

I have found that the media is absolutely incorrect about almost anything except for politics. Where, if they do, the politicians will rip them a new one.

"Now, it's time for MEDIA MADNESS!"
*Applause*
"By the way, why DO we call it MEDIA MADNESS!?"
"Because we're mad at the MEDIA"

Exactly my sentiments.

Hoping I find some way to compose that piece I want.

That said. I shouldn't have wrote that. Maybe.

I've got Finale 2005 or something like that, but it's not good to use. I haven't been composing much either, but it depends on what you're going to write. If it's piano music and whatnot, get Finale. Otherwise http://www.magix.com/us/music-maker/premium/ is good but you'll need to get the trial.

Um. There's musicscore or something like that on our netbook. I tried it in the holidays but it's confusing (for me). Finale was much better/simpler to use (imo)

Toan said...

Well, i was thinking whole orchestra/at least 3 instruments. So finale it is. Maybe I'll just "borrow" it from the school library.

Your first sentence reminds me of me beginning to suggest something to my sister and before I even get to my idea she says "There's no way I'm doing ______" and it's always just what I was going to suggest.

requires cd key thats why only 20 people could use it at a time in year 7

you'll end up composing scores as midi files right? being a guitarist i'm inclined to recommend guitar pro but thats what i recommend to everyone (its function is not as limited as some might think)

Toan said...

Midi can be converted to MP3, so it's all good. Guitar Pro, eh...Might try it.

Kram said...

it also cost monex, and you can get illegally, but you can also get finale illegally, etc, etc
