Evil Genius

She's a master of disguise
No one knows who she is inside
I think you'll be surprised
Because she's an evil genius

She can shrink Manhattan to fit in her pocket
And escape the law on her homemade rocket
That she can control from her locket
She's an evil genius

She'll have super heroes crying
Some might even be dying
Good luck to the ones that are flying
She's an evil genius

Guts, Glory, and Guitars

Another semester has come to an end and I'm one step closer to my goal of a bachelors degree. Next semester I get to transfer into Fresno State (Go Dogs). This semester ended on a really high note (pun intended) because I took a guitar class to add units to my schedule. At the end of the year they had Ram's Jam's II. Rams being the Fresno City College Mascot. Jams meaning a music. and II meaning this is the second one that they have done. It was basically, all of the guitar classes getting together and playing for and audience to raise money for the music program at City College. This is everything from the beginning classes (which I was in) to the advanced classes (that blew my mind). I played with 40 other guitarists in a song by Juan Serrano called Sevillanas. I also played the rhythm guitar part for a song with all of the participants and the special guest guitarist, Shea Welsh. There was about 100 guitars and the sound was so awesome it was almost unbelievable. The song we played called Sancho T. Panza was also written by Shea Welsh. A little known fact, it was named after his ex-girlfriend's dog who would get very excited and tinkle on the carpet. Sancho Tinkles Panza. True Story.Here's a picture of me before the show with my guitar for all of you who were curious about the guitar and how awesome it is. Well, that's all for now.
