If you’re not going to try, then don’t even bother. After four and a half years, I’ve developed something of a knack for figuring out within the first week or two of the semester who’s not going to come back to CCCB. Yet I am surprised to find that sometimes, people I had high … More CCCB Is Not Free (You Have to Work for It)
You need a password on your phone. Now, let me explain why. If you’re like me, you probably have a smartphone with all sorts of communications apps on it. I sync most of my email accounts to my phone, along with my Facebook messenger, Twitter, WordPress, Amazon, and even my bank’s mobile app. I don’t … More Why You Should Have A Password On Your Phone
I’m really excited about this post, and it’s not just because I took the pictures myself. I’ve been taking apart computers since I was 9, fixing them for money since 2009, and have been working professionally in IT for over a year. Needless to say, I really like those things in the boxes with the fans and … More I Built A High-End Computer For Only $1500 (Here’s How)
The semester has proven to be quite busy starting out, and so I haven’t actually had time to keep up with my usual posting. But, here is one that I’ve been waiting over a month to share with you. This summer, I got hired at a local media company. Shortly before I got hired, I was … More Building a Recording Booth: It’s Done!
I haven’t posted anything since last week. Between academics, work, trying to find books to borrow, and calculating and re-calculating expenses, I’ve been feeling a little overwhelmed. I need to work 30 hours a week to maintain my finances and be able to fix my car, yet three of my classes this semester are chocked … More [This is Music] Song of the Day – Impatience (Conveyer)
I’ve been jamming this song over and over since yesterday morning. Mostly, I’ve been trying to figure out what to make of it. You see, The Devil Wears Prada has always had a unique sound that has set them apart from other metal bands. Though they weren’t the first to combine synth and metal, nor even … More [This is Music] Song of the Day – Planet A (TDWP)
First of all, I’m having problems with WordPress saying that posts are published on the next day; I assure you, it is very much still Friday. This week’s album of choice is one of my favorites to unashamedly scream along to in the car (even if I do sometimes get strange looks from people). Hard, … More [This is Music] Album of the Week: Worn Out (Conveyer)
Okay, so this song may not exactly be your cup of tea. Frankly, this band isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. From the way their music is produced/written to the thinking behind their lyrics, Showbread tends to be a little edgier than most, even if they’re not even what one might call “hardcore.” But their lyrics always cause me to … More [This is Music] Song of the Day – A Man With A Hammer
Like most of you reading this, I’ve come to call CCCB “home” but still look for ways to save a few dollars whenever I can. Saving money may only seem like a little at a time, but those little bits add up to a substantial amount over time. And with how expensive life tends to … More 7 Ways to Save Money This Semester At CCCB
Today’s song is one that really hits home for me. For four years I watched my friends leave college for one reason or another, and in May the rest of them graduated. This isn’t to say that I don’t still have friends at school, but the ones I came in with, had the late nights … More [This is Music] Song of the Day: Change Will Come (Least of These)
