New site look.
I like this new customizeable template option for blogger. What do you think of the new look I set set up with it?
Two Compositions
So, I recently finished up two of my compositions (see title).
The first composition was one I had started back in November. It had really been a kind of exercise I had set up for myself to get my crative juices flowing again after being in a session of dryness in composing. Anyhow I had put it on hold for awhile (my creative juices had got flowin' so well from my exercise I couldn't stay on one project) and just recently finished it up. Here is A Short Scene of the Mountains.
The next composition was also a sort of exercise, but more recent. I guess when you're kind of green in composition anything new is an exercise :). I had never composed much action/suspense music and wanted to try my hand at it. So here is Flight to the Mountains (what is it with me and and my songs including the word "mountain"?).
Enjoy.

Charlie Byers
Okay, where to start?
My little brother Benjamin is into to yo-yoing and has been so for about a year now. Benjamin also has a friend named Charlie Byers who is also a yo-er and is Benjamin's so called "yoyo teacher" (Charlie is the same age as my little brother). The thing is both Benjamin and Charlie started yo-yoing at the same time. It's an interesting story how they got all into spinning wheels attached to the ends of strings, but that's another story I don't have time to tell right now. As you can tell Charlie either spends all day yo-yoing or has some serious talent. Anyhow, what's the point of having an awesome story about a child prodigy if I don't have any evidence or some sort of proof to impress you with? Well, keep reading and you'll get just that.
Around this time last year Charlie headed down to Florida to see if he could place in the Florida State Yoyo Competition. At that time he had only been yo-yoing for a few months. Unfortunately he didn't place anything but was sure to try again next year. Try again he did . . . and placed third. Now, just in case you're wondering, he wasn't competing with guys his age, he was facing professional adult yo-ers. Pretty awesome. And now for the proof: below is a video his mom took of him doing his performance.
