Evening folks. I know it's been a while and as always I have promised in the past to contribute more regularly to this blog, but have failed. Who even reads this thing anyway? Haha. Anyway unless the numbers are somehow skewed, the blog is still getting around 10 views a day (probably thanks to leaked Dark Knight Rises trailer). But anyway, I've found I have a solid amount of free time on my hands lately, so I've decided I'm going to pick up a hobby, something productive. I've been reading more lately (and yes, and actual book, not just articles on the internet) and it's been good for me, but I feel like I need something more. So if anyone actually reads this, feel free to contribute any ideas for great hobbies (possibly ones that I can make money at) and in the meantime, I'll keep my eyes peeled. As for now, I hate just leaving the few readers I have with nothing but a personal piece on my life, so I'll update with the bootlegged Dark Knight Rises trailer with the official one, enjoy!

Christmas and Michael Bublé
So it seems that Christmas comes earlier and earlier every year; people pretty much don't consider Thanksgiving a holiday which is fine in my book considering the holiday is based on Columbus and the Pilgrims kicking Indians off of their land but now has become a day of gorging obscene amounts of food and watching football (I'm not complaining, just saying) and that Halloween ends for most of us at age 10 (minus the drunken college costume parties). So yeah, Christmas season is nearing and the holiday season seems to already be in full swing. My mom enjoys Christmas year round but especially kicks it up in late October and early November with music and certain channels that play movies.
I guess it also started early for me cause I bought Michael Bublé's Christmas album the day it came out in October, but I simply couldn't wait. Anyone who knows me knows of my man crush for Mr. Bublé and he certainly does not disappoint on this album. I'll post a "making of" video for one of my favorite songs below. Normally I'd just post a link to the entire song, but instead I'll just recommend actually shelling put the money for this one and BUYING IT. It's worth it, I promise!
P.S. Also feel free to donate to what I'm calling my "get my own place or loose my sanity" fund. The donation button will be at the bottom of the page, thanks!

Life After College Sucks...A Lot.
Normally I offer something on this blog that people can actually find useful (for a while I was doing a "free friday" bit), but today it's for venting purposes. First of all to anyone who visits this page whether it be out of boredom or you happen to just stumble upon on it, thank you. A posting about Watsky yesterday helped the blog get 10 views and I know that's not a lot to most, but to me it means someone out there is taking time to read this and I appreciate that. Now, on to the rant.
So yeah, life after college pretty much sucks. In a down economy you most likely won't end up finding a job in your field (especially depending on your degree) and you'll either be unemployed or underemployed. You'll also move back in with your parents who will drive you insane (even if they're cool and you love them to death like I do mine, it's still hard to move back in with them after college). You'll see your college friends a lot less (obviously) especially if you're like me and went to an out of state school. And finally (although I'm sure theres more) the financial burden of loans and helping your parents by taking over your own bills quickly adds up and you'll soon realize how much debt you'll be in for the next 10+ years of your life.
That being said, was it all worth is in the end? YES. You can't put a price on the friends you make and the memories of truly epic parties and other fun times you'll have after 4 solid years of drinking and slacking off. The only bad part of college is that it has to end, but I guess things could be a lot worse and I would rather have lived 4 of the best years of my life then not go to college at all. Now I just need to stumble upon a small fortune and my troubles will be solved (mostly). Until next time folks, keep your head up and take salvation in knowing that if you are one of the majority of college graduates that is unemployed/underemployed and living at home, you're not alone in this world, and that things will get better...eventually.
Heres a good video on how to help deal with adulthood.

Watsky - New Material
Hey guys. I know it's been a while since I've updated for you loyal fans visiting the page day after day and for that, I apologize. I got tied up dealing with good old New England weather this weekend. We currently only have power because we have a generator and internet only came back a few hours ago. Nonetheless, I'll once again make an empty promise to update this more regularly, but probably won't haha. Not even sure who reads this anymore, but it still get at least 5 visits per day, which is pretty legit considering I hardly ever update it. Anyway, heres more material from a guy I had posted a little while back with the song "Fuck and Emcee Name" I downloaded this album and actually paid for it cause it's that good (you can "name your price" before downloading it). Inlcuded below will be a link to listen to the entire album for free and a youtube video of one of my favorite songs. Another memorable tune is "Paula Shore say me penis". Definitely check him out, he's got some stuff out on this one:

Youtube
Since this blog seems to get a few hits a day, I might as well put my youtube channel on here too. I've been watching a guy lately named Phil DeFranco: http://www.youtube.com/user/sxephil?blend=1&ob=4 and he's got a lot of good points on a number of subjects. I've been watching him for a while actually, but just consistently as of late because the guy literally makes a living off of making youtube videos. Literally. I don't feel like I can say that word enough to emphasize how amazing of a job that would be. He's on tour right now in Europe and people just love the shit out of him. He seems like a pretty legit guy, but even his level of fame seems pretty insane for a guy that just post videos on youtube about news topics of the day. Anyway, check out his channel cause he is a legit guy and check out one of my other favorites Peter Rallis http://www.youtube.com/user/RallisP?blend=1&ob=4 for your biweekly dose of movie info and hilarious movie reviews. I cant imagine how cool it would be to just make video on youtube and actually make money on it, so maybe I'll give it a try. I've just gotta find a way I can do it without possibly getting in trouble at work (which can actually happen). In the meantime, check it out and subscribe if you like, I'll be putting more reviews and videos up sometime soon most likely. My channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/Ryscott0317?feature=mhee Also, until I can find a way to permanently put the donate button on the blog, I'll just post it at the bottom

Donations
Alright so before you see the donation button and start thinking this is some kind of plea, just hear me out. For those of you who dont know, I've recently graduated college and a few months back was able to secure a fill time job in my home town. Now although this job isn't something I'll be doing for the rest of my life, it's good for right now because being able to find full time work in this economy, I acutally consider myself a pretty lucky guy. Ive got a good job making pretty good money and have good benefits to boot. We're actually short staffed so I've been able to work some overtime lately so it's been pretty nice. So, with all of that said, why the donation button you ask? Well I've come to a relization as of late.
Despite the fact that I'm an avid downloader of movies, music and anything I can get my hands on, I also believe that if something is good enough, then the people behind it should be compensated for their efforts. I've always downloaded music and movies, but now that I have a full time job, I'm able to buy good CDs and DVDs I've previously downloaded and believe that they are good enough for my to purchase them (and although nowadays it probably isn't much for everyone involved) give money back to the people that made that product possible.
I've also made some donations to websites whose free product I've been using for years without contributing any sort of money to (wallbase.net and avg.com to name a few). So with all these recent donations and purchases lately, I've decided to put up a donation link on my blog as well, just in case people find it funny or informative enough where they'd like to contribute a little something. Because of this, I will be great strides to update this blog more regularly and keep the masses informed of whatever ridiculous thing I can think up next. The blog still actually gets at least 10 views a day (although I think it's mostly from people googling a picturing and my blog just sort of pops up) but whatever. At least someone somewhere is actually reading this thing and that really is all that matters to me. Well that and the $100 those Corporate Fat Cats at Google semi screwed me out of haha. Until next time folks.
