How to Make Your First Rock 'n' Roll Album
We were talking about that old internet thing where you use random on Wikipedia and Flickr and make an album, so I dug up the one I made a couple years ago. Pretty legit, huh? :)
***
To Do This
1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to Quotations Page and select “random quotations”
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.
3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 - Use Photoshop or a similar drawing program to put it all together.
5 - Post it to FB with the name of your new band and the album name in the “caption” or “comment” and TAG the friends you want to join in.
IF YOU SPEND MORE THAN 5 MINUTES YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG!!!! :)
The name of my Band is:
Charles Jaco
MY FIRST ALBUM IS:
“Up to Real Money”

Monday
Less than 24 hours back in Austin and I’m already back to the same ol’-same ol’ routines. Setting my alarm for 9:20, instead getting up an hour later, getting dressed but neglecting to put on make up or even contacts. Going to class, ignoring the professor, choosing instead to browse Facebook and Tumblr. Sitting next to (http://freeganvegan.tumblr.com/), who I missed a crazy lot. We’ll walk the same route to our next class, take notes and get on Facebook, then go eat lunch at J2. In the 4 or 5 days that I was gone, I missed my daily Austin routine. I’m glad I’m back. Although I do miss my comfortable bed back home.
Conversation on Dancing Styles Between My Dad's Friend and I
- Robby: This is how I danced at 6th street. *stands still and awkwardly stares into distance*
- Shaina: I dance whatever dance you do standing by the buffet table at prom.
Happy Holidaze
In less than an hour, me, my brother, my best friend Kayli, and all our luggage are going to pile into Clayton’s truck and head back to Austin. While this extended weekend has been nice, and filled with over 8 hours of sleep each night, I am more than ready to go back to the city. I miss my friends and social life a heck of a lot. I’m hoping I magically regain my voice when we hit the city limits, because thanks to allergies and excessive screaming from attending two football games, I can barely talk.
I can’t believe we have one more week of school. Then finals. I’m thinking about organizing a De-Stressing Post-Thanksgiving Pre-Finals Let’s-Pretend-Like-We’re-Five-Years-Old game day something this week that will include lots of friends, Nerf guns, freeze tag, hide ‘n’ seek, and sardines (which, if you haven’t heard of it, is reverse hide ‘n’ seek, and totally rocks). Because we all need to chill out before finals, and lose the calories we gained from Thanksgiving. I know for sure I do.
I hope all of you have a freakin’ awesome holiday!
“We were two kids, grown up in some ways but children in other ways, but certainly not thinking of ourselves as children - thinking of ourselves as Masters of the Universe over all other life forms, including adults. We were hipper, cooler, smarter, we knew more about pretty much everything there was to know more about, and we were fine with that. Adolescence is such a fun time in your life, because you think you know it all, and you haven’t gotten to the point where you realize that you know almost nothing.”
—Anthony Kiedis in his book Scar Tissue
