Back to School: The adventure continues

 I have been so busy this fall but hey I ain't complaining.  October was a very demanding month for me,  I had to prepare for a gospel concert, ( I had two solos), prepare my own solo set for the Sugar Bar concert,  learn my scenes for my acting class and try to maintain my A average at Berklee College of Music.   I don't know how I did it but I di it all. Everything turned out great.   I got standing ovations for my performances, great accolades  in acting class and I am maintaining my A average at Berklee.  This is what happens when you get focused and stick to you guns.  The point I am trying to make is to not get caught up in what you have to or how long it's going take to complete a task.  Don't worry yourself, don't talk about it be about and everything will be alright.

Back to School: Late Night Studying!

Me studying hard!

Folks I received an A in my Music Publishing class!! Yeah boyyyyyyyyyyyee!!!!  Now I am two weeks into my Desktop Music Production class and so far it's a lot of reading.  I can't want to we get into the production part of the class, I am ready to make some music.  I really need to calm my ass down because I still don't know how to properly use these Sonar and Reason programs.  I guess I am just excited.   I stayed up until 2 o'clock in the morning messing around with these programs. Damn it feels good to be working on something that you love!!!!    Well that's all for now, I gotta get my study on!!! Stay up people!!

SONAR X1

Reason

                                                 

I'm about to make some hot ass music, (as soon as I figure this out).

Damn this is cool, but how do I work it?  lol

Back to School: The adventure continues!

As you all know I am in the Graduate program at Berklee College of Music. My Music Publishing 101 class ended last week and I gained a lot of knowledge and was sad that it had come to an end. The grades are not out yet but I was maintaining an A average throughout the 12 weeks so we shall see. Well this week the spring courses begin and I am now in my first week of Desktop Music Production. This course is teaching me how to produce music, using the programs Reason and Cakewalk. Well I opened up the Reason software today and didn't know what the hell I was doing. The damn demo started playing fast ass club track. My girl called me on the phone while I was trying to find my way around this program. She heard the thumping beat and I lied and told her it was one of my creations. LOL Before she could get excited I told it was just playing. There is no way I could have learned to make a beat that quick or that hot! I was thinking to myself. "Damn what did I just get myself into?"

But the positive side of me always comes through and instead of having a tittie attack I decided to man up and stay focused. I can't let myself get all discouraged now. I paid too much money for these damn classes and I am going to get my money's worth and then some. So I say bring on desktop production you are going down!!! LOL

Back to school, the follow up!

 Well as you all know, I started a graduate program in January at the prestigious Berklee College of Music,  majoring in Music Business and Technology.  I have to tell you that things are going good so far,  a brother is holding it down. So far I have been keeping up with my classes  and my assignments. It's been a challenge with the million and one other things that I do but  somehow I am still doing it.   I have received an  A in all of my assignments.   Things are looking good. 

I know awhile back I kept saying that I wanted to go back to school and I am so proud of myself for sticking to my guns and making it happen.  I am learning so much, the Music Publishing course has been so informative,  I have been pumped with so much knowledge that it's exhausting. LOL  (In a good way).  Damn it feels good to stick to your guns and actually do something you set out to do.
