Here’s something for you if you get bored…

Make me an MP3 CD with ATLEAST 50 songs on it:

Put whatever you want on it
It must be organized in a logical fashion based on the CD
- If it a CD of Scores/Soundtracks, organize it by the Game/Movie it came from
- If it is just songs by Various artists, categorize by Artists

How to create an MP3 CD:

Data/CD ISO (Preferred since you can make folders)
- Place blank CD in you Burner
  - If you use a CD Burning program, open in and enter the DATA or CD ISO creation
  - Windows CD Burning wizard also works I believe
- Create FOLDERS for your organizational structure
  - NO Sub-Folders, the player can only read one folder deep
  - Example:
    If you are making a Soundtrack CD, make folder’s like this:
    - Aladdin
    - Spider-man
    - Transformers
    - Transformers 2
    - Watchmen
- Once you are finished making the folders, make sure they are sorted Alphabetically
  Sometimes it actually makes a difference….

iTunes: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-an-MP3-CD-Using-iTunes
- One thing they leave out is that, if I remember correctly, how you have it sorted in iTunes, is how it burns to the CD.
- iTunes doesn’t make folders, but that’s alright if this is the only way you can do it.

Let me know if you have any trouble with any of this, and thanks in advance!

Going GoogleVoice

Matty — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 17:36:58 +0000

I have had a GrandCentral account for a long time now. Since before Google bought them out and then recently turned it into GoogleVoice. I have always loved the service but never really used it, mainly because it didn’t accept SMS (text messages)…. That’s all about to change. I want everyone that has or needs my number to try and use my Google Voice number exclusively. My reasoning for this is that I may soon be getting a new phone, and may get a new number with it which I’m not going to bother to try and update everyone on, I however will always have the GoogleVoice number.

There will of course be a few exceptions to the rule, like if you are on verizon and have limited text messaging or minutes, but this will be my primary number for calls, texts, everything.

So to make this easier on everyone, just use my GoogleVoice number please. It is EightSixFour.SixFourTwo.FourThreeOneEight

Awesome and Win!

Matty — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 19:20:04 +0000

So this weekend, or I supposed this past weekend now, was pretty much awesome and amazing!

Friday night we had a party type thing for Whitney and hung out, but then, Saturday came …(insert excited dramatic pause here) … we went Frankie’s Fun Park and it was awesome!! Laser Tag = Amazing… Spinning, press the button to stop on the jackpot game is addictive, but well worth the 840 tickets! After that we went to Carrabba’s and it was full of more awesome and win! It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed hanging out with everyone…

In short… we need more people to have more parties in which we go to Frankie’s Fun Park and Carrabba’s for dinner!

On a different note..
Here is an early entry from XKCD that I think some will find humorous… hahaha!

Nate, I love you… really

New Year, New Semester

Matty — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 05:39:28 +0000

So the year and semester have started off pretty well… all my classes seem like they will be good! I like most of my professors so far, though I was late to Western Civ on the first day :-\ oops… That was due to me writing down the wrong room number.

My oldest brother is still in Iraq, but he is doing well. We have been emailing back and forth when we can… speaking of, I was in the middle of a decently long email to him yesterday and my computer stopped working, then I come to find out that my email client no longer works and I have lost all the emails that were saved on my computer, but also the saved drafts of my email to him…. not happy…

Got that fixed, but I have decided that I’m just going to use Gmail’s webclient from now on, maybe I can get that to work how I want it if I actually use it….

Been hanging out with new friends or old friends more, which has been nice. The onset of this has probably been me trying to compensate for the fact that Trevor is gone and now I’m alone in my room. Being alone in the room isn’t necessarily a bad thing, I just kinda wish Trevor and I had been able to room together for longer. Oh well… Whitney and Paul have been incorporated into our lunch/dinner group and we’ve hung out with Stacey and her roommate, Jessica, which has been a lot of fun! I’m hoping that tomorrow (Friday) night we can have movie night and watch Dr. Strangelove We shall see…

Well I should head to bed… gotta get up in 7 1/2 hours…. I’ll try to update again sooner than later

Take a look at the following:

Apparently the following is the… 23

The rest of it all

Matty — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 18:00:36 +0000

So last week I forgot to mention my little adventure the Friday night before the BC game…

Friday night, Nate, Trevor and myself went to our cars before I went to the Semi-Formal with Em. We get there and everyone starts to leave, Trevor and Em are gone by now, and my car won’t start… So I call Nate and he comes back and we try to jump my car.

At this point I’m not sure what went wrong but we couldn’t get it to jump, so we go to check the connections. We are looking at them and the cables start smoking, then they start melting, then the clamps on my side of the car glow bright red and one catches on fire for a second. Nate and I are both freaking out, he uses a blanket to remove the cable from his ca, and they burn through the blanket in the process.

Once that is over with and we calm down, we notice some marks on my car and we thought that it had gotten so hot that it melted the clear-coat and ate through some of the paint, fortunately it hadn’t, so that was good.

Then this past weekend we played USC at USC and we barely won… it was ridiculous… I don’t want to talk about it… but the break was nice, even if I did have 2 tests when I got back… I enjoyed hanging out with Em and her Family, then I got to hang out with my family for about a day and a half, and that was nice.

Anyways, I hope everyone had a great break and that this week is going well!
Horray that the weekend is almost here!!

Matty — Mon, 02 Jul 2007 00:44:03 +0000

Ok, been kinda busy with nothing to do… yeah, I know it sounds strange, but with the family here and me catching up on sleep, I’m kept busy.

Summer 1 went well, so that’s good, and Calculus… well it’s Calculus, enough said…

One of my friends has a website (http://www.nerdica.com/) and he recently made an article that has hit the DIGG top ten!! Congrats to him!! Here is the link to the Article

Well, I have a Calc test tomorrow, so I gotta get running…

Happy Fourth to all!!

Birthday!!!

Matty — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 02:45:56 +0000

It’s my birthday!! WOOOO!!!
The big 2-1!!!!
Anyways….

Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday (or will)!!!

My birthday wasn’t great to begin with since I had an absolutely horrible Calc test at 8am, them had class until 1PM…. from there it got better though, so that’s good!

One of my friends wrote this:Love is EndlessYou never know when you will meet someone nice. You may never know when or why you fall in love with someone, that’s what so great about being alive. Love is endless, everyday that’s spent on this earth can be a new chance, a new opportunity to meet the person you are meant to be with. Sometimes its a person right in front of you, i believe people can accidently fall in love. Thats what makes life so beautiful. Sometimes people search forever, and that’s half the battle, the search gives love its deeper and profound meaning, if everyone fell in love with the first person they met, love wouldn’t be as special as it is. When love is found it should be cherished.

Also…
I recently formatted my computer and therefore wiped my entire buddy list. Since I alias everyone to their real names there have been very few people whose screen names I can remember. So, if you haven’t already done so and want to be on my buddy list, please IM me with your first and last name and how I know you, so that I can put you back on and figure out who the heck you are! Thanks!Thanks again everyone!!

Last week

Matty — Mon, 11 Jun 2007 15:06:24 +0000

I forgot to post yesterday or Saturday, so I’ll make a quick post now.

The week was good all-in-all.

Tuesday I met a few new people, Mike and Dan, who are in class with one of my friends Will. We ate lunch and hung out for a while and that was a blast!

Wednesday Kelly went into labor. Em and I went up at 8PM to be there when the baby was born. Unfortunately Em had a class at 9:45 Thursday morning, so I made her leave before it got too late, though it was already 11:30. Kelly had the baby at approximately 2:23am Thursday, June 7th!! So exciting!

Thursday night Em and I went to Cirque du Soleil and that was awesome!!! I want to go see it again! She is so amazing.

That about covers the major events of last week. I’ll try to post again this weeken.

I hope everyone has a good week!
