Why hello there lurkers.

I had a sneaking suspicion about your presence back there with the rest of the shadowed crowd. It wouldn't be such a night unless yours truly had your eye on my tiny personalised space out in the world wide web, where my fingertips roam free and type my very thoughts at will in the form of an intelligible blog post.

I do admit, there are quite a number of things and topics I've been through on here. Alot doesn't seem appropriate at times, but overall, I think I'm doing quite well for a seasoned, and yet, not quite as frequent as I like -blogger.

I do believe I had something in mind when I started this blog post.

That is, Stevie Wonder (Stevie Ray Vaughn?) and Hall & Oates.

Now, I know they may not be the most current faze that tops the radio charts today, as of those hits of Ke$ha, 3Oh!3, Will.I.Am and whatnot; but it was only yesterday that I had been relaxing and finding a song of Stevie's that recognised.

It had all started with "Superstition". Of course, the classic is well known if you've ever seen any cheesy or even well made movie from the 90s or even shows and YouTube channels of today have used this great theme/song. It was from YouTube's Suggestions panel that I noticed and followed onto the rest of his songs... Thus, leading me to Hall and Oates.

Now, I had heard their "You make my Dreams come True" from its use in the 2009/2010 (I can't remember exactly when it was released) film, 500 Days of Summer. Their song "Sara Smile" brought a tear to my eye as I listened patiently to their gentle tune.

I stopped watching any videos after that (worrying for internet bandwidth overusage, and the fact that I had been watching quite a lot over the past few days), and sat quietly to myself....

When was the last time a song has evoked such emotion from its listeners? Or am I just... a bit sensitive? In any case, I still prefer the likeness of all genres that are genuinely melodic and such, and I'm not ashamed to say I do like songs from lots of controversial genres too: Rap/Hiphop, Pop, Mainstream, Indie [Rock ~ interesting thing about that, my good friend keeps telling me that I seem to like bands that are what he calls "Indie rock", I don't really mind what its called honestly, it's still good music to my ears], Rock, Alt Rock, Punk Rock, Metal, Power Metal, Classical, Concerto, C-Pop, J-Pop, Tech/House/Trance, and much much more.

I couldn't live with myself if I didn't settle with myself and just admit that I'm and avid listener and player of a vast multitude of music. My piano awaits for my next song project and I intend to satisfy it's desire.

Good Day, Night, Early Morning and Sunset Eve,

Okay, it hasn't been a long wait from my last post, right? (If you may call such a video embed from my channel on YouTube..)

Well in anycase, I have a little pressing issue on my blogging fingers that are hurrying away like clockwork to post this to you, my faithful readers...

And that is;

A slight philosophical spin on things + Physics

Now, I know there is not much you can delegate a whole blog post towards, in terms of discussing this sort of topic, however I'll try to keep it short, simple and sweet.

One of my good friends was discussing the other day about how the laws of physics, (in this case Newton's First, Second and Third laws), could somehow be taken for all-important life lessons.

These may not seem as so important in this way, although taking the basic structure as a formula in which you may impart life lessons onto people, (like the good readership here), puts a new 'spin', if you will, onto the ether of philosophy that people may usually disregard. The point here is that taking the First Law for example;

An object will remain at rest or will not change direction or speed unless acted upon by external forces.

Now, if you take the object to be something innocent, such as a young child, and the motion being their path in life; then the external forces may be that of the many influences (or propaganda, etc) the child will encounter on his or her path through life. The essence of what I'm trying to express here is that kids are often like this situation; most are veered off their 'course' throughout life by some external force, whether it be the lecturing of their teachers, the guidance of their parents or even the advertising shown in television, the internet and much more mediums.

Unless the child lived in a 'bubble', where all unapproved influences could not impact on the child, (99% of childhoods are not like this, thankfully, although I do sympathise with those that have been brought up this way), then there is always external influences acting upon the child in some insignificant to major way.

Of course, there are negative impacts upon the child from these various influences, as the analogy continues; the possible corruption of the pure, innocent thought process (highly unlikely due to the broad majority of children at least with some sort of external, uncontrolled influences impacting on them, the potential 'stunting' of a development of the child's unique identity (who the think they are) and alterations of aspirations (what they want to do).

I could further explain why this analogy, however I must bring this post to a close. (I fear I carry on a fair bit...)

The final point I will make is that important life lessons can come from the most unlikely of places, whether they may be from a cleverly made street sign, a fable or enchanting tale told by a wisened stranger or even from the very interwebs, i.e. here on my blog.

What lessons you keep at heart can help to make you and everyone around you a better person, in mind, body, spirit and soul.

Normal posting may resume for next week's post, give or take a few days. If you are interested in this philosophical types of posts, please express your interests in the comments section and I will gladly continue the series of this post.

Now I know there's been quite a long absence here and there with my posting; but never fear...

I have something to post upon my homely blog:

A new video on my YouTube Channel @ www.youtube.com/user/razorblayde08

And here we go.



Fly On, Enjoy and Comment on my vid.

....*transmission interruption*....

*crackling* M-Maybe...Oh!

A hi, hello and how are ya to those still lurking around my blog...

I know a blog is no good without proper updates, and for that; I'm immensely apologetic to my readership of say... three or so. Har har.


But as they say so commonly;

"If it ain't broke; don't fix it."

And it looks like this is just the start.

Well, the most pressing thing on my mind at the moment is the movie, 500 Days of Summer.

Yeah, yeah, typical romantic comedy stereotypes aside, this movie, challenges the mindsets of realistic views on relationships; that is, that people don't often believe that true love or 'love' for that matter exists...

Just like the opening line, "This is a story about boy meets girl; but you should know upfront, that this is not a love story," summarises oh so eloquently and in the style that those voice-overs can be in these movies, this story begins as at the point in which Tom, (the boy) has reacted quite shockingly to a break-up from his ... err... 'friend', Summer (the girl).

As his sister Rachel asks him, "What went down?" [What happened?], the story begins in the usual fashion, introducing Tom and Summer and how they met initially... through a greeting card company they both worked for.

Zipping in and around through the 500 days that they were in each others lives, the narrative progresses in a nonlinear way, essentially showing major and minor details about how it was developing, then crashed horribly into a pit of flames... (not literally).


What is peculiar about this film, in fact, is exactly what it intends to deal with; that is, the unexpected and off-guarding nature of coincidence. Especially when in terms of finding the person who you'd end up spending the rest of your life with.

Ironically enough, Tom meets a girl competing for a architectural job with him, asking her out for coffee, regardless of who gets the job. She initially starts to say that she's meant to meet someone later, however she agrees anyway.

Tom introduces himself and the girl introduces herself as Autumn.

Thus begins his 1st day with Autumn...


In other news, I'd finished the NFS Live Championship of Need for Speed SHIFT on PC; receiving the much famed hero car, the BMW M3 GT2 (E92)...

Pics will follow later, but for now;

Fly On,

Hey, hello to all my followers, etc...

I know I haven't been posting in awhile, but I've just been caught up playing Need for Speed SHIFT.

It's an incredible game; a good step in the Need for Speed franchise.

The visuals are amazing, especially from the cockpit view, in which was worked on by the development team immensely.

Although it may not be entirely realistic, the semi arcade/simulation approach Slightly Mad Studios has taken is nigh-better than that of another racing game in such genre (Race Driver GRID by Codemasters).

Both may have their own novelties in their own way, however it is just overall, SHIFT feels more... polished/finished, rather than it's competitor.


Anyway, here's a few pics of my main car - a Works converted Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X
(with matching "Red Tear" custom vinyl designed by myself)
Oh and a fun takedown of a Dodge Viper SRT10 with the Ford GT I was driving in an Invitational event at Willow Springs.
And some dorifuto action.
Anyway, I'll be leaving on a trip, where I'll still post, albeit more frequently (now that I have the time and opportunity to).

Fly On,

Has anyone reading my blog ever listened to/heard of/knows of/knows the band Rise Against?

Recently, after being handed a task to analyse a "protest" kind of song, I didn't stop to hesitate choosing something from that band.

Sure, not everyone is into their songs, but I have to keep remembering; I'd listen to practically any kind of music... It just has to have good flow...

So when I actually got down to looking at the lyrics of the song for techniques; there was pretty much a whole different song that I thought I had been listening to...

A new meaning, a new story perhaps...?


The song itself is heavily melodic, so anyone who does not usually listen to these supposed 'genre' of songs would not really mind the sudden acceleration and vocal emphasis in the chorus.


In the mean time, I might be busy for at least next week, taking a whole week away from the enthralling web of the internet to focus on studies or so...

Fly On,
