Hey everybody! This is a “music video” that my friends and I shot for the 2011 Baylor BUGWB Band Banquet.
It was a pretty fun project. And there are some very silly scenes in there. Enjoy.
Part of my conducting final. The single most embarrassing moment of my life.
Anonymous asked: would you do a drum corp? and if so, which?
I really wanted to between my senior year of high school and freshman year in college, but the finances didn’t really work out. My best friend and I had planned on auditioning for Phantom Regiment, though. He made it. I know a few guys that are in Carolina Crown and they really like it. Honestly I would want to be in any of the Drum Corps.
Okay… I keep seeing screenshots of this on the Baylor tag. Here goes:
Baylor lets graduate students pretty much create their own classes based off of research topics. The person this class was created for probably had an interesting idea and wanted to look into it further, so in order to do that, Baylor had to create a course topic. This course is not mean to slander homosexuality in any way. Baylor does not teach its students what to believe (believe it or not). Baylor offers an environment where Christians can express their beliefs openly.
However…
Even if it WAS a real class, what’s it to the people complaining about it? Honestly. So far in my college career, I have not been given any information in class that could not be backed up by research. If a professor gives us his OPINION, he lets us know about it.
To me, this just sounds like another attempt by gay/lesbian activists who want to force their views on Baylor.
You read that correctly. People want to practice their own beliefs without persecution, and that’s great. But then, when another person disagrees, that person is suddenly a close-minded bigot who needs to change his beliefs because he doesn’t follow the trend on changing his morals due to what people tell them he should change it to.
I understand it’s a two-way street, but doesn’t anyone see the irony here?
People at Baylor Need to Learn How to Park (Cars and Bikes)
I’m now convinced that the Baylor Parking Services should give bike parking guidelines and remove bikes that are not parked properly. Not only is it annoying trying to park my bike on a rack next to an improperly parked bike, but they can also damage other people’s bikes. When a bike is only locked up by its front wheel, it can get knocked over extremely easily, and make it severely obnoxious to get your bike off the rack, too. I’ve seen bikes parked like these that have fallen on other bikes and bent their wheels. Have you ever tried to ride a bike with a bent wheel? Bet you can’t.
Anyway, the reason I brought this up is because yesterday I was reprimanded by a Baylor police officer, and I was outraged by it. Normally Baylor police are pretty cool and understanding, but this guy was just plain rude. Here’s a summary of the exchange:
Walking out the music building, I discover a bike parked with the handlebars directly on top of mine, promising a difficult time removing my bike. As I tried to get my bike, I accidentally knocked over another bike that had only been locked up by the front wheel. A police officer driving by immediately slammed on his brakes and got out of his car.
PoPo: “Is that your bike?”
Me: “This bike?” (My bike)
PoPo: “No. The one you just knocked over.”
Me: “No, officer, that’s not mine. I accidentally——”
PoPo: “I don’t want to listen to your excuses, son.”
Me: “But—-“
PoPo: “You better pick up that bike and ride off before I write you a ticket.”
So the police officer was completely unreasonable and didn’t want to hear my side of why the bike was knocked over. That’s why parking needs to be enforced. -.-
On a side note, you may have noticed that I tagged this with Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber, or whatever. Since they have poisoned my Baylor tag, I decided to do the same to theirs with the very few posts that I actually do. Take that, Julena Biebez .
The recent interview just supports my theory even more…
That Justin Bieber is gay…
“My… uhhhhh…. friend!”
(He’s afraid to call her his girlfriend… silly fella)
Okay, Selena Gomez, you have officially poisoned my Baylor tag
Get off. I don’t care about you…
