Get Stoned

Hi people of Kris' blog, as some of you may or may not know I'm from Scotland and a keen guitarist and pianist, yeah strange mix.

Yet I think both of these wonderful instruments have a great amount of uses for powerful emotional messages that artists can use to help raise awareness on subjects, a song I'm going choose for this post is a wonderful song called "Get Stoned" by a wonderful band called Hinder.

Now, I'm very much against the use of drugs, and this song really doesn't promote drug taking much at all but what I love about this song is it has such a good rhyme to it, a 'partyish' feel, and a feeling that no matter what you just gotta go on and have fun with life.

 Life is a strange thing, you can spent years trying to guess what the meaning is and not come any closer, for the truth is no one really knows, whether you believe in god created it, or an evolutionist, no one really knows why life formed. Or if there truly is a meaning or not.

What I love about this song is it really can just pick you up even when life just isn't going your way. I often listen to this song and it's just one of those.songs that you can sing along with, it draws you in, offers you a glance of brilliance, of happiness, of just feeling good, that's what I believe songs are about.

It doesn't matter what songs you like, whether it's metal, pop, or even classical, if it even draws you in for a moment, if it inspires you to do great things, or just even make you feel good then the song has done its purpose.

Often, when I need a hit of inspiration, for ether school work, making a new song, or just when I feel low, a great song is all it takes to lift me up most of the time, music is just a wonderful tool.

Now this is me signing off, but I'd like to leave you a awesome quote:

"Life is like a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once. Make sure you don't regret what you brought"

This' going on my christmas list!

Hi guys, sorry I couldn't post last week I was busy with personal stuff and then I was busy with school stuff and then I was busy doing some other stuff (which I might tell you about in a later post, oh the suspense). So yeah basically I was doing a lot of stuff.

Now if you didn't know I love computers, that sounds really sad, but anyway as part of this love I also love robotics. So when you combine robotics and AI I fall in love.

This real looking seal (with I admit rather strange eye lashes) is designed by a Japanese company and "Paro" is designed to respond to petting by moving its tail, opening and closing its eyes, and making seal-like noises. It can also respond to sounds, learn a name, and show emotions. All of these features are designed to have a calming effect on humans.

And the best thing is it will only costs $5, 531 or £3, 518. I know I am putting this on my Christmas list.

See you soon folks,

Kris

PS: I will be changing my blog posting days to Saturday from now on because I have more time.

Shakespeare is a twit...

Every English students worse nightmare, the babbling nonsense of Mr. William Shakespeare.

Now don't get me wrong I love Shakespeare I would happily go to watch one of his plays but come on if most of your audience was idiots why would use language that's so advanced?

Well I know why but my English assessment would be a lot easier to write if he had considered me! If someone ever invents a time machine please send a copy of my blog to him - I would be most grateful.

So if you've got an English essay coming up about Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, or any other exams, good luck and remember - Kris believes in you!
