Just got home from my first class, Career Management. It was an overwhelming bombardment of statistics that said that after I inish this course, I will not work in the music industry. That what I am doing is a waste of time. That I cannot possibly put in the amount of work needed to make it in the industry. And frankly I agree. I don't think I can make it. I mean, I can finish the course, and I know I will learn a lot fromit. But I don't think it will get me anywhere in my life but into debt. I don't belong here. I don't want to be here. If I had a car I would be headed off to Saskatchewan already. I have no friends. I do not sleep well. I don't think the course I am in is right for me. SOunds like I should get the fuck out of here before I blow all of my money on nothing.

Well, here it is. My 300th post, and my first from Vancouver. Somehow, I don't think it's gonna be the spectacular that the other two were. Just got home from my orientation at PAVI and discussed a couple of finacial issues that should be getting fixed soon so no worries there. The drive out here, through the mountains and such was very beautiful. Trees and mountains everywhere you look. Saw the cousins in Okatoks the first night, then stayed in Kamloops the second night and then we were here. Got my stuff into my room, saw Aunt Irene and the next day Mom and Dad were off. I've got the upstairs room, which means that I have to walk through my landlady's kitchen to get to the bathroom or anything else I want to get to. But one of the other guys should be moving out at the end of october and if he does I get his room. The landlady is very, very loud in the morning and I am up at 7 am with her. Other than all that I've just been sitting here wondering what the fuck I w...

Trying to pack shit up for the trip to Vancouver. I'm packing up everything but I don't want to pack up too much, like my computer cause then I won't have anything to do tommorrow. And through it all mom won't stop nagging at me that I'm not gonna get done in thime. Honestly, I can guaruntee that I can pack the rest of this shit up in less than two hours. On the bright side we went up to Regina today, I know have pants, a coat and a new snazzy MP3 phone. It also takes pictures and the likes. Pretty sad when my camera takes better pictures than my camera does. And the last 4 digits of my number are 0000. How fucking cool is that. Unfortunatley it will be changing once I get to Vancouver. This whole moving to Vancouver thing has me Frustrated, Excited, Nervous and a host of other feelings and the people around me aren't helping much. I just can't wait to get it over with.

After all the modifications I did to my computer I ended up with an extra stick of Ram. It's 256 megs of DDR ram. If anyone would like it. I am selling it for 25 bucks. That's less than half the original price! Act now and you can get in a neat-o case! With under 50 hours of operating time on it! You'll think your a criminal! Shanna, I believe you said something awhile ago, so you get first dibs if you want it, other than that, the first person to talk to me about it(whether it's by comment or whatever) gets it.

Danny had suggested that I become his sidekick in superhero-ism because of my amazing ability to eat crap. So I give you The Human Carburator!

I'm done working at McDonald's! Supreme Commander Pilon shall no longer cook you maggots burgers!

Well, just got off my last day of work, only to find that it wasn't my last day. I went in to the main McDonald's to see if they had writen me in for anything Monday or Tuesday, since I said I could work either of those two days. Well, I got me 11 more hours over the two days...now I'll have something to do next week. Saw Danny at work today.....some superpowers. Lucky Number Slevin - When Slevin is mistaken for another man who owes two separate crime bosses a lot of money, he finds himself in the middle of a mob war with the cops watching him closely as well as a world class assassin. He must try to work his way out of the mess and straighten things out. A very good movie with some fucking big names. Let's see, Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Lucy Liu and a few others I can't think of right now. Although the suprise ending is actually pretty easy to guess once the movie gets going, it still manages to pop in a few suprises. I give 'er 9 Bruce Willi...

Well, just got back home from visiting my grandma and grandpa Pilon. They are doing well. A little over worked. Helped them out with some chores around the house, washing the car, hanging up christmas lights and the such. Got a lot of cheap beef jerky at grayson and a shitload of sausage and now we are home. Also, Jeremy, we have the telescope.......now everyone knows! HAHAHAHAHA! Indeed. Got more setup done on my rig...I figured out two problems with it. 1. I had now stereo sound coming from it. Turned out to be a problem with the program..it was incorrectly set. I fixed it. 2. When I play my instrument, or sing, I cannot hear it coming through the speakers with the music I am playing or singing along with. I can only listen to one or the other. This can be somewhat fixed with guitar. Just play the music through the speakers and make sure the sounds for your guitar are set and play. But that doesn't work with a mic. Most people can't sing with headphones on unless thier voice ...

It seems that there is some confusion as to what I was saying about packing in the last post so you can all go to hell. Silent Hill: Holy fuck. Well, frankly this movie did not disappoint. It drew on what Silent Hill was from the first one and added tweaked the story a little for itself. Although a lot of the story was the same, it got behind what had happened there. And I'm pretty sure some of the areas in the movie were replicas from the game, which is pretty fucking cool. Basically, when a girl has nightmares and screams Silent Hill during them, her adopted mother takes her to Silent Hill. Fucking twisted shit occurs. Frankly, I don't need to see a pyramid head rip a chicks skin off and then huck it at someone....although it was pretty fucking cool. Frankly, It was fucking disturbing. The directing of the movie was done very well. Nothing exceptionally special was used but it was all used right. Combined together it made for an amazing look. At times they used the lighting ...

This whole packing my shit together for the trip to Vancouver is a hell of a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. If I forget anything, I'm shit out of luck...I can't just hop in the car and drive to Weyburn to pick something up. I'll probably come home for christmas and that's it. And the problem isn't so much of forgetting stuff, but the fact that I can only take so much. about 75% of my stuff is being left at home. I have to weed through everything and find out what I need and pretty much take only it. I'm already leaving my amp behind which isn't something I'd like to do but I have no choice. I'm also leaving my acoustic and a shitload of books and all of my VHS tapes. Uggh. This sucks. My computer, guitar and gear and clothing...and that's about it. Everyone keeps saying...don't worry, your only there for a year. That probably won't be true though. I'm not going to find a job recording music in Weyburn....probably not a...

I give the secret track 10 out of 10 though.

Please...Just do it. So, today I thought I would review a cd I bought last night. As I stated in my last post, I bought the Shoot the Messenger Ep, Come Revolution. The band contains Steve Biss(Vocals), Chris Ebel(Guitars), Tyson O'Dell(Guitars), Victor Roman(Bass) and, Michael Van Betuw(Drums). Seeing as I know these guys I figured I'd review it. Now, I'd like to start off by saying that anything said in this review is to be taken as constructive criticism. So they shouldn't take it too personally. I'll start off by saying that Adam Coderre did a great job mixing the cd. Although it's not professional quality he did a wonderful job with what he had and it turned out great. The music itself is Heavy Metal, plain and simple. There is nothing special about it. It's all been done before. Although this makes for a great live act, every city has a band that plays it so it's very difficult to make it anywhere with it. I could list off a host of bands that they...
