March 29, 2015

 Today was a pretty laid back day and I am okay with that. I finished reading a textbook chapter before lunch and responded to a discussion post but then I took the rest of the day off from schoolwork. I may regret that later but preparing for my presentation this weekend, and spending most of my weekend out of town, was enough school for me. I'll jump back in tomorrow.

I didn't really do anything with the rest of my day. I watched the livestream for the Ultra Music Festival in Miami. I listened to it on the radio going to class and coming back, and watched the livestream last night and all day today. It was interesting seeing the differences in production from the guys on the side stage and the guys on the main stage. The main stage shows are over the top. It's pretty incredible. I would like to go to a show sometime. Even if you're not into EDM it just seems like something everyone should experience at least once. The festival ended with Skrillex, who had cameos from Puff Daddy and Justin Bieber. Crazy. His set was definitely better before those two came out but to each their own.

I had thought about livestreaming some Minecraft tonight but didn't because I wanted to watch the Ultra livestream and didn't want to mess with setting up my laptop to I could watch the Ultra stream on that and then play and stream Minecraft on my PC. The point of that being that I wouldn't have the Ultra music on my stream. Not that anyone watches my stream but it would most likely get content IDed and the whole thing would get muted. So instead, I watched the Ultra stream and just played Minecraft without streaming it.


I basically just did the preliminary work for a future stream. I had the idea that I wanted to start a new world, a Stream World, and keeping with that theme, I wanted to build my house near a stream. Clever stuff. So I created a new world and went looking for a stream. And I got super lucky. There were a couple streams really close to my spawn point and a good mix of biomes. I decided to build my house on a little hill in the bend of one of the streams. I want to do the actual building while I'm streaming but I did level off the hill and laid out dirt as a kind of rough outline for the house. A decent start. It was also nice to just zone out for awhile and wander around in Minecraft. Zoning out is good after a long week. With another long one ahead of me. Can't wait.
