I am exceedingly happy right now. Ever since high school I have been looking for a band/orchestra/symphony to play my flute in. Today I learned that I can play in the Lee County Orchestra which practices every Tuesday at the high school right around the corner from my college. I’M SO HAPPY!!!!!

College
I realize that I have not posted anything since October. With the occurrence of the holidays, my grandmother passing, and starting at a college where I have to actually attend class, I have been kind of busy. Now that I am getting into the swing of things i want to post something at least every two weeks.
Lack of Pride
This is something that has been pissing me off since middle school. Do you remember having to say the Pledge of Allegiance before school each day? Do you remember learning the national anthem in elementary school music class? I sure do, but the other day I was asked by my nephew what they were and that the school would not teach them to him (note: he lives in California). SERIOUSLY!!! Has our once proud nation been degraded by sexual and religious immorality that we cant even have the Pledge of Allegiance in schools? Not to mention that the only time I ever hear the national anthem anymore is at sporting events. That’s another thing; I went to see a football game the other day and while they were doing the national anthem I realized that I was the only person in my area the actually KNEW the words. This is absolutely PATHETIC. We have let our forefathers down. This is just some of what has been going on. We can no longer have open prayer in classes. We can no longer say the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools. People want to take the saying “In God We Trust” off our currency. I thought we had freedom of religion. That’s what our country was founded on. But we don’t. Some atheist can say that something is offensive and has the Pledge of Allegiance taken out of our schools simply because it says “One Nation Under GOD.” Which is one sided as hell. I find it offensive that I cant say it and that my children no longer get the opportunity to choose for themselves.
I could continue this rant but my hands are cold. so TO BE CONTINUED…..

Coming Soon — Gears of War 3 — Xbox 360 — Review
The title says it all.
Resistance 3 Review
To get started here are some trailers to watch.
I played through the game on the easiest setting so I could enjoy the designs and story line; I the replayed it on the hardest difficulty as to have a challenge.
When I first started up the game it had an almost 700Mb update. OK so they might have missed something, whatever. After the update was done doing its thing I had to install the disc to the HDD as with MGS4.
OK, OK NOW I can start playing 15mins after I had started. I watched the opening video and did the little tutorial. Then I was off to see the wizard or in this case the crazy scientist who lead you through the last 2 games.
So You go as an escort with Dr. Malikov after your wife tells you to (bitch). Here is where I quit with the spoilers for the most part. About 2/3 of the way through the game you finally get to NY and the frozen wasteland that it has become. One of the only problems that I had with the game occurred here. You are walking through town when you get ambushed by a bunch of chimera with rocket launchers, not much of a problem unless you are out of sniper ammunition. I almost always was as it is my favorite weapon. The other problem with this is that the game developers gave you no cover in which to hide and get some shots off. The only cover you get does not have a clear view of the enemy and once you are inside they start bombarding your exit with rockets.Other than that I only had one other problem with the game. Even on the hardest difficulty the bosses presented no challenge, especially after you found the little niches you could hide in and blast away at them.Lastly THERE WAS NO END BOSS. Now I realize this is somewhat of an old tactic to make a game overly hard but when the other bosses were easy please give me a final boss with a challenge. The game then ends with the usual cinematic and credits. Also to save you all 20 mins. There is no extra movie after the credits. Overall in the graphics section I give this game 7/10. The graphics were ok, if you compare them to the others when they started production they would be awesome but compared to what they could be they are just average. For game play I have to give it 6/10 for lack of challenge. If they had just made it harder or gave me a final boss it would have been much better. Story line is 8/10 great continuity but it seemed to lack details and it also seemed to make a clear decision weather there is gonna be a sequel or not. All in all it was a good game. I would however rent or just wait until the price goes down to buy it. *NOTE I did not test the online or co-op game play.
