Hey all,
So I tried to write a post earlier, but I have this wicked case of writer's block for some reason. Maybe it's the lack of photo shoots I've done lately. Which, if that's the case, then I'm screwed, because this weather has been pure suck. Maybe I just have too much on my mind, and I can't get it into words? Or maybe I just have too high a standard for the things I do, even when it's as simple as a little blog post. Ok, maybe not that last one seeing as my last post was on Halo HD... lol.
Whatever my issue is, this needs to stop. I love being in a creative mood, I get more enjoyment out of it than pretty much any of my other hobbies. Even shitty fan-fiction would be better than nothing! (Yes, I've done it before; no, I have never posted it anywhere; no, I won't post it here, I don't even think it exists anymore.)
Maybe I'll spend any free time I have within the next few days working on "The Dreamtredder" concept instead of watching TV or playing games... At the very least I might head to the pool now that the new aquatics hours are up. I wonder where my goggles are...?
If anyone has suggestions on how to beat this block, post them in the comments below! Or maybe send me an e-mail. Also, don't forget to follow me on Twitter! (Shameless self promotion isn't dirty, I swear, it's good for...something...)

Halo HD?
Rumor now has it that in November, on the 10th anniversary of "Halo: Combat Evolved," Microsoft will be releasing Halo HD for the Xbox 360. Yes folks, this would in fact be a remake of a game released a decade ago. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this, and curious as to the opinions of others, so leave your thoughts in the comments to this post.
What I CAN tell you, is that the sales of this game may have interesting implications for the possibility for more remakes. I've brought this thought process up before, when the rumors first came out. I know a lot of people would definitely have a bit of a freak out if they released say... I don't know... the Final Fantasy games on the current generation consoles? If Halo HD is true, and it sells, we could have a flood of remakes. Many could just be attempts to cash in on the hype, but it's also possible for some quality games to come out this way. We'll just have to wait and see I suppose.
Also, here's a song that I've been playing a lot lately:
-Florence and the Machine - Kiss With A Fist

First!
So I have this blog now...
Why you ask? I'm not entirely sure. I feel like every so often I might have something interesting to say. If not, I can at least post some music links or something.
Speaking of, my latest explorations into the vast world of "new" music has been rather entertaining. And of course by new I mean things I haven't heard before. One particular route I've been using has been the listing for this year's Warped Tour. For once I have a list of about a dozen bands that I'd enjoy seeing, a rare feat for Warped. Below you'll find a list with links to their MySpace pages, because that's the only reason to still go on that site nowadays.
