You've never heard this song before...
2005-08-21 14:46:56
Because I wrote it myself, a few months ago. It's my favorite of my own songs. It is called Inverness, and is based on Shakespeare's "Macbeth". Much symbolism. So you know, Inverness is a place in Scotland. It was the castle of Macbeth before he killed King Duncan.
Glamis waiting in the rain
Carry me from Dunsinane
A long way back from Dunsinane
To walk along the ones I've slain
The army's late, it's just as well,
Waiting just to hear the bell,
But tune it out, for tis a knell
That summons me to heaven or to hell!
Your mind's construction in your face
But I can't live without your grace.
Far too late to second guess
At least we know we did our best.
Dunsinane wont let me go.
Our Birnam Wood's begun to grow
Now there is no way out unless
I can return to Inverness.
Cawdor has no place within
The bearer of this ghastly sin
I feel the tortured horrid grin
Of every ghost upon my skin.
On the border marches Fife
Coming forth to take my life
And there returns that floating knife
That crimson-spattered dagger of my mind!
And by the pricking of our thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
I already failed my test
There's nothing more to be confessed.
That damned spot simply wont come clean
And now I turn to you, my queen
Only with you am I blessed,
In the arms of Inverness.
Pardon's just too far away
And though I try I cannot pray
I need you to be my regress
To my life back in Inverness.
And as I fall into the void,
I'll let Dunsinane be destroyed,
Look into your eyes and I'll rest.
You are my heart's last Inverness.
You are my heart's last Inverness.
You are my heart's last Inverness.
You are my only Inverness!
You are... my Inverness. -
I'm on an Opinion-ing spree!
2005-08-21 12:16:15
Fun, fun. I never write opinions because I'm lazy, but I'm practicing it now. I've started to get curious... will there be any AMV editors on campus at Lynchburg College? Probably there will be at least one... right? I mean, anime is getting pretty widespread... but we'll see. I guess I'm feeling a little lonely, but that's only natural. Soon I'll get to college and I'll make friends, right? 'Til then, nothing I can do but wait... and pack, I guess.
I think I'm putting on a little weight, too. I'd hate to those my boyish figure, so I'm cutting back on snacking. It's easier than exercising. -
This is long overdue.

A while ago I said I'd download all of Sammy's videos and all of godix's videos, then review them all. Well, I found the freetime... so I did so. Here are my reviews:
Sammy's videos:
I mostly didn't like them, with certain exceptions (like the original 'Jump Around', with it's crap-ass video quality that gave me nostalgia for EK's "Mama Said Knock You Out").
Godix's videos:
I mostly liked them. Especially Mink Is A Cartoon Individual, the Badger video, Ghibli's Around The World (Remixed), and both Dedication videos. Mind you, I've only watched the comedies so far. I'm lazy like that.
That's that. - I just watched ASM... 2005-08-20 11:45:16 You guys are fucking BRILLIANT. I'm not hardcore Sammy-hater (more of a softcore Sammy-hater), but that is a goddamned brilliant AMV. Sammy is pwned for all eternity.

Fernando Strikes Back.
2005-08-19 10:48:15
So, yeah. Turns out that my problem has been because I was using XviD. This is just great, because I've already gone and ripped the entire series of Futurama and encoded it with XviD. How the hell am I possibly going to redo all of this? It seems like my only option is to delete all my footage and start over and keep the project file, vowing to redo everything on some later date... and I'm ready to throw in the towel, anyway. Fucking XviD. Fucking Fernando.
So, yeah. Frustrated.
I may upload Project SSS when I get to college... the connection has gotten insanely slow here. I was barely able to load the site.
