Day 3 of recovering from a nasty cold. Don't think I'll be posting until I'm fully recovered. I also need to focus on school at the minute as the scourge of Finals week is on me next week. I've noted the posts in Vampyro and will post once things are calm Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

I'm cured of my cold, and finals are done. I got an 86% on the mythology final. I took the final bio exam and I had some trouble, but overall, I think I did fine. Being sick didn't do me any favors for either class as I spent valuable study time recovering, but these things happen =) Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

I spent like six hours composing musical notes in Dorico, transferred the notation to MIDI in my DAW, and everything sounded TERRIBLE. So I adjusted a few things, experimented with my free VSTs, and still nothing worked. What a great way to start the new year XD

Strange that, despite all that effort--much more effort than my previous songs--it still turned out unworkable. Overall, I think I learned two things:

1. Do not fight against your music or try to force it to sound a certain a way, it can't be anything more than what its notes are

2. You need high quality VSTs to sound good; if you don't have good software or VSTs, you can't make anything great

I may have to wait until I return to work, save up money, then start purchasing higher quality software and VSTs. But oof, they are so expensive >.< the full version of Dorico is like a thousand bucks, and getting a high quality symphony VST is almost two grand.

But oh well, that'll only make me more patient with my musical, stretching out the journey longer.

Annie, your character is now poisoned. Do you want your character to be poisoned? I am allowing you to edit your post, since there was no way for you to know that grabbing or biting the plant would get you poisoned. If you edit your post, I will edit mine. I feel this is a good compromise, since just retroactively applying poisoned status, I feel, gets into the territory of autohitting, and I'm unsure if I should proceed in poisoning your character.
