Alesis Andromeda A6


So today I was given an Alesis Andromeda A6 to play with.

Let me tell you, those things are scary advanced. I am no keyboardist, and regular keyboards are enough for me.

But I still used this. I have no idea why. Am I insane, or such a super geek that my skill boundaries are pushed beyond the limits of this mortal plane? I don't know.

What I do know is that it's scary good. SCARY GOOD.

All I did was scroll though some presets and I was BLOWN AWAY. Not just a little. ACTUALLY BLOWN AWAY BY THE SOUNDS.

Ahem.

So yes, today was good. I once again questioned the point of going to a "Business and Enterprise College", seeing as all it does it try and prepare us to run our own businesses even though I have no intention of doing so.

What's worse is that the tasks expect you to be an entrepreneur. I am not an entrepreneur. I am not a businessman. I am a creative person, who feels stifled in a suit and tie. It completely eludes me, this 'upstart' attitude. I am not an upstart, I am a creative person. I do not think in numbers and statistics, i think in images and sounds.

Eh. Whatever, I only have one more year of this trite to go and then I'm free for (potentially) the rest of my life.

One more year and I'm out of the social shithole that is High School. Hell yeah.


Sraen out.

Aye, I know. But I am going to try to avoid that hell as much as I can. Check back in a few years to see how I get on!
