My First Professional Music Video!

 Two blog posts within a day of each other? You can't be serious!

For last semester I had to produce a music video for one of my classes. I collaborated with my friend Jordan Lawrence and used his song "It's Done." The production process took about 2 weeks. This is definitely one of the best things I've ever been a part of, check it out!

Consarn Those...Unicorns?!

A new patch came out to coincide with the release of The Sims 3 Town Life Stuff. It has a nice long list of fixes. Haven't downloaded it myself yet, I plan to install it when I get TLS (probably tomorrow).

But wait!

What's this? A huge chunk (possibly all) of coding related to Pets was included with the patch as well? Eyup. A ton of stuff we didn't know about the expansion is contained in the file DeltaBuild0.package. A full list of the new stuff can be read here: http://simsvip.com/?page_id=2538

My favourite things to come out of this:
-Ice cream trucks and vending machines? Awesome!
-Unicorns are the new "creature." Didn't see that coming, but I think they have potential, especially with their magical abilities. Funny thing is, if I didn't start watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic I probably would have reacted badly to this (seriously, that show is actually really good).
-The variety of small pets is easily the best the series has seen so far. Hedgehogs?! HECK YEAH
-Looks like there's new singing interactions for sims? 
-Country and RnB may be new radio stations.
-Sims have to actually ask permission to ride another sim's horse. It's the little things that make The Sims more believable.

Wait...so if unicorns are in this game, then that means we can create something similar to...


Looks like the exchange will become about 20% cooler.

Sonic Through the Ages

Sonic the Hedgehog - 20 years of unstoppable awesomeness.

Heck yeahhhhh.

The new Chemical Plant reveal and Classic Tails are awesome too. Generations is going to be amazing!

The 50th Blog Post, Really!

I first had to write a blog for one of my journalism classes at Sheridan College. After I graduated I saw my journey to Australia as a reason to continue! 

My first post was on June 8, 2010. Now my latest is on July 18, 2011. Over a year of blogging!

Sure I didn't update consistently, but at least for the new year I'm making an effort to blog at least once or twice a week.

Now with the sentimental blog reminiscing out of the way, it's time to talk about the present and the future! 

So the big 10th episode of Aussie Life is out...

What's next? Well, the door has now been blown wide open for expansion with all the new faces that appeared in this episode....

WHAT?!!!!!

Osama Bin Laden is dead.

I'm shocked. I never thought it would actually happen, but it did. My initial reaction was exactly the same as my reaction to Michael Jackson's death: "No way, that can't possibly be true." This time though, I'm actually happy the person died. He killed so many people and took away the world's innocence. I figured since we didn't already find him, he would just eventually rot in his hiding place and we'd never figure out where he ended up. It has also been speculated for a while that he might have already died.

I never personally knew any of the victims of 9/11, but for the families of those affected I hope you now have your proper closure. Karma came to Bin Laden in spades, so much that he didn't even get a proper trial or anything. Just shot to death.

The funny thing is though, Americans are being all patriotic and are all like AMERICA!!! If it had been Canadian troops who killed Bin Laden I wouldn't be all like CANADA OMG YEAH!!! Just some food for thought. Sure I was all patriotic when we took the most gold medals at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, but sports is different.

One interesting thing to note is that Bin Laden's death closely followed the anniversary of Hitler's suicide, April 30th.

Now for an example from The Sims.

And you know what happened from there.

AMERICA!!! :P
