The Good News Thread

Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

Wow this could take all arguments with EQD and toss them out the window!! :o :D I am so hoping these changes will work and make a LOT more people happy. Would love to see a rejected email so people who don't hear ANYTHING back won't be wondering if their submission was lost, rejected and why, etc but otherwise this is fantastic news and makes their site a lot more current (same/next day features??!!) as well.

You know that absolutely epic feeling when you're struggling with a song, and then you learn a bunch of things and your song suddenly starts to get 10 times better? AND you're near finished with it? That's what is happening to me right now. So pumped about the song that I'm working on right now, especially since I've been working on the song for over 5 weeks now, and it's coming out a lot better than any of my previous pieces of works, which in a way makes me ashamed of my previous pieces xD

A bit of an update, because this song has been really fluctuating between being almost done and being nowhere near done, but it's going to take like another week because I have to update the drums, and redo the synths in the drop D: so I'm not very happy about that. But I've been learning a lot about massive lately, so that's good

I'm watching one of deadmau5's livestreams and working on a song. I feel so inspired.

There's no school today, traffic is currently great and my family's main shipment of stuff arrived a couple of days ago. Violeta Violeta Vol. III comes out next week and I have two major field trips in the next three weeks (including a MUN conference in another "country"). I made the swim team (barely but made it nonetheless) despite not swimming for 2 1/2 years. I have gotten some work done on another parody and some other songs too. Election season is almost over and soon both my liberal and conservative friends will shut up (sadly they probably won't but that's beside the point). The president is visiting (a neighboring country) in a couple of weeks and my dad gets to help out with the visit and hopefully get me some more connections in the white house. Overall a day of good news for me and a great month to follow.

Still I can't beat this:

Hey, look up! Everything looks great for you, and you aren't plagued with serious problems like others! The grass always look greener elsewhere, but your grass is plenty green.

I know I was being semi-sarcastic (Serious about the guy from the first quote clearly has the best news compared to all the rest of us but not about Rickistan). Of course my upcoming month is going to be great! Though my grass isn't green so much as brown, but that has to do with the strange lack of rain and bad air quality.

Hmm....

Well, looks like I might be getting laid soon. Aaaaand S3 is coming. That's it, really.
Oooh wait, I've regained my REM status, which is great, I kind of missed it in a way...
I cannot make music at all.

I can mix very well. PM me if you want me to mix ANYTHING. However, college is sapping my spare time at the moment. MLR is a once-in-a-blue-moon thing.

Came out to my mother as demisexual.

Yup. She doesn't quite understand it, but she's fine with it.

But anyways, finished up a new song which I'll be posting soon. And finishing the term with almost all A's, which is awesome. Oh, and I'm getting Cyclops, which is great. Looking forward to getting SB Cyclop.

Good news? Hmmm...

OH! I'm back! From my hiatus, that is.

You might have noticed that my name is different, well, that's because I changed it.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you can find what my name USED to be in my signature.

I'm glad to finally get back to making music, and I have actually already set up a new tumblr and soundcloud (with a new song!) so yeah, once I figure out how to disguise links again I'll put those in my signature.
Soundcloud
Tumblr

If you ever need someone to talk to -
Skype: pwnmachine244

That's all I got right now.
