An Apple Laptop

October 19, 2012 at 8:04 PM

You guys don't know how excited I am right now! A few days ago my dad came home with an Apple iMac laptop computer. For some reason, it didn't have Garageband and iMovie, two features I most looked forward to using, on it. So yesterday he took it into the Apple Store and modified the situation. And now, this afternoon after school, I finally got to really try it out! I have Finale and Garageband and everything. Garageband will allow me to mostly make soundtracks to movies, and Finale will be the Finale it's always been. So, in a nutshell, this computer will be my dream for composing, entertainment, and schoolwork. It won't be a source for performing music. I'll have my violin for that! :) And actually, Garageband allows me to use my violin and create multiple parts. So I could make my own orchestras out of real instruments that I play! How cool is that?!

Thanks! Yeah, I've started a movie that I'll probably post on YouTube, so I'll make another post when it's finished.

Hope you’ll have real fun doing it! At least sounds very promising to be interesting! Maybe I should try it too…
