A young PurpleKirby54 joins YouTube on Nov 6, 2007. It all started on January 25th, 2008. A cute little original composition filmed on a crappy camera called "Black Hole" hit YouTube. 70 someodd videos later (most of which got deleted, making only 53), Kirby starts his biggest project ever. Please watch to the end.What's there left to say? Well. Other than watching til the end, that is. I've had EIGHT MONTHS IN THE MAKING working on this, and I still didn't get every song in. I left a couple out, due to the fact that they didn't really... fit. Anyway. I'd like to thank all of my subscribers for this, giving me encouragement the whole time. I've gone through three pairs of headphones with this, and golly, was it worth it. This features every song I've uploaded to youtube (with the exceptions mentioned), and 20 funpacked minutes of music fun.

Thanks a ton!

Recently, a video that I did got 15,000 views. I suppose this is a huge milestone for a musician who has nothing more than a program based on an old SNES game and occasionally a bit of sheet music. Most of the time, I don’t even see Mario Paint composers get any more than 100 to 1000 views on their videos, so this is huge! I have this other great milestone video that I’m working on close to completion as well. Thanks for all your support over the years, and I hope I can keep making music that is good by you all. Now, I'm not saying this is a big deal or anything, considering the most popular one out there has 6 million views, but hey who's counting right? I have 1/400th the views he does, and that ain't nothing to sneeze at. So, those who give me support here (and those who don't you're cool too), I thank you! Now, granted, all my videos combined have well over 15,000 views, but not on one single solitary video.

Well, the bad news, gents, is that my Logitech headset's bass isn't working, which is interfering with what I can hear and can't hear on videos, games, and other sorts of stuff like that. Fortunately, my computer's on-dash microphone still works, along with a good pair of earbuds I use. So, all is not lost, Penny Pigtails. This is going to drastically cut my microphone quality, but probably improve my listening quality. So, for now, my mic may not work, and I will eventually need to get a new one. For now... we'll simply have to see how good the on-dash mic works.

Please be patient with me.

I take Classes from 6 to 8 on mondays, tuesdays and thursdays.
Dunno how long that'll last cuz the semester's almost over.

Doin' a let's play type deal with Vader91 (you know, vader91? this bloke - Moddb.com )And you should totally subscribe to us. I'm certain that he'll put the same on his MODDB as well.

Anyways, that's it for this update, look out for more in the FUTURE~
woooooooo

I may be takin' some college classes down at the community college where i live, I may be at a desk job some time soon making 20 bucks an hour, i may be taking a course at a gym, i may be doing all these things

and yet, in my mind, i'm not being productive.

Trust me, if you knew me, you would never see me sit still during any of this. I would get distracted easily and give up halfway through.

But today, i realized something.

I focus my best when I'm doing things relevant to graphics and pictures. Hell, even ask Vader, he will tell you that the only way for you to get me to sit still is if I am creating something or playing video games. But mostly working.

I find that if I'm making something and I legitimately care about it, I'll work on it until that sucker is DONE.

Why do you think I enjoy making music? Or making Skins, or making board game tiles, or coloring art? Or doing anything but sitting still and watching and waiting?

Heck, I'm fidgeting just sitting and writing this. Adjusting my feet or legs or laptop or something.

You just can't sit me still unless I'm working on something.

So.

Anyone got any work they need done? graphics for a game, music, anything?

Most folks around here have this idea that you need to be some hotshot gamer to be popular and famous, like many of the gamers before us, UberHaxorNova, PewDiePie, Chuggaaconroy, and BlueXephos just to name a few, they all share the same mentality. "Games are business". For a few, gaming is a way to kick back and relax at the end of a day. For others, it's a business, how they make their living.

But what happens if you're like me? Decent at video games, an amateur musician, and aren't popular in the slightest in places like youtube, facebook, twitter (even though i barely ever check the thing) and other such social media sites?

What if you're just a lost soul looking for something to accomplish in this world?

Let's face it. Even though we all claim to have a religious belief we go by, be it Catholic, Buddhist, LDS, Judaism, Muslim... We all have our own little beliefs thrown in. Things of a soul.

F'rinstance, I have this thought in my head that maybe this life isn't the only one you get. Maybe there were some before, and some after, but this life in the human plane ain't the only one you get. Catholics would say, yes, there's heaven afterward. Mormons would say, you existed before and you'll exist again. Buddhists would say that there's reincarnation and that one probably existed before as an animal of some sort. Muslims believe somethin' but I don't entirely know what. Something about Virgins? I dunno.

Anyway.

Here's my predicament. I've only had training in a few select areas of business, that being of advertising and the media of entertainment known as graphic design.

I suck at art.

I've been raised on the principal that many things can be accomplished with a little faith and a lot of manpower.

I am thin as a pole.

Here's what I think I have in store. When I die, there may be a thing like in Team Fortress or Counter-Strike where you respawn. But you won't get the same body, no, you go to the afterlife.

...I forgot the point I was making, but I guess it all boils down to "I have no idea what I'm doing with my life."

Running...

What Is all wrong with my game.

Number one;
The texture files.
The lights and such aren't loading properly, I.E, it's always bright all the time. Not that this is a bad thing, but it does effect gameplay because it slows down everything.

Number two;
Flashlight errors.
When the flashlight is on, all zombie textures become illuminated in a different colour combination (i.e, white skin, yellow clothing (all one color, too, no mixed.) green skin, blue clothing, etc.)

Number three;
Excessive zombies create lag spikes.
Dunno if this is a problem on many computers, but it's really annoying on mine, considering windows 7 is supposed to be all that and a barrel of pancakes.

Number four;
um, i'm terrified of witches D:

I suppose that's all, other than the obvious...

Well, shit.

Sorry that I have to let everyone down here, especially Vader, Matt, and Skeybar, but it seems my computer is just too slow to run L4D2 properly.
So, even though I do have left 4 dead 2, it has similar problems to my Alien Swarm (ask vader, he knows.) So I'm just gonna have to eh, not play that. At least until the problems with the video get sorted out.

So that time of year is approaching again. the time which Kirby thinks about what the devil he likes in TF2. Oh, wait a minute, he can't buy anything because he's poor as hell. But hey, no one said that the TF2 Buying or Trading game was easy.
