I’m apparently being punished
For what I’ve done to my computer
Yet all I’m guilty of doing
Is making it run better
With the invention of Windows 8
It became harder to move files around
I don’t have a touch screen
And I want my files easily found
I separate my files
Onto multiple drives
So when one crashes
Most my files survive
But the user directory
Is a pain to move this time
You have to go through odd steps
That don’t make sense or rhyme
But I went through it all
And was satisfied with the result
Until 8.1 came out
And threw me an insult
I cannot upgrade my computer
Because of this much needed move
Now Microsoft is punishing me
For throwing off their Emperor like grove.
Don’t get me wrong
I’m one of the few people I know
That actually likes Windows 8
And how its controlled
But there are things in this update
That should have been in there from the start
I need this update
To quell my computer’s heart
But yeah
That’s not how it works
Error 0x80070004 has come
Destroying these much needed perks
Screw you world
For making me conform
I do not want to do so
For I am my own storm
I will customize my life
To my best abilities
Your updates be damned
You Microsoft commies
I will work around your stupidity
And make this computer work right
For you have not heard the last of people like me
Because honestly, we are the ones in the right.

My Process of Writing
I’ve always been amazed at how much really needs to go into writing to make it good. Long fiction especially. The research alone can be a daunting task. There are many methods, but only one has worked for me, and I’ve learned it through so much trial and error that I can sometimes get overwhelmed.
First and foremost is the idea. What is the story going to be about? And trust me, there are many many many ideas to chose from. I’ve had two big writing failures in my life. Most would try to tell me that they weren’t failures, one actually did pretty well.

Cooking: Japanese Hibachi Style Fried Rice
I’ve been threatening to write this blog post for awhile, and I think, its finally time.... Japanese Hibachi Style Fried Rice!
One thing to note, before I get started on this, is that when we cook in this house, I make sure there are plenty of leftovers. That being said, when I cook my Fried Rice, we make quite a bit. Another thing to note is that I always find my recipes online and modify them to suit my needs. I’ll post them in a footnote kinda thing in the bottom.

An Essay on Writing - Part 1/2 (To plan a story)
How far should one go to create a backstory for a novel? There are so many examples of how far some people have gone and its so hard to choose the distance one should take.
In my fantasy novel, I am currently writing, I knew I had to create a new world. I then narrowed down that the action will take place only on a specific continent, so I mapped that out and just kind of glanced over some interesting places the characters were going to visit. Then I had to try to figure out what kind of fantasy it was, did it have dragons, did it have griffins, or was it just like earth, with no real fantastical creatures?
