Wallpaper

Hey, guys!  So, I just wanted to quickly show you guys a wallpaper that I made!

Before I do, I'll tell you the story.  Long-story-short, I was on Instagram and one of my friends posted an image that said:  "Some people just need a high five.  In the face.  With a chair."  I instantly laughed out loud and thought, man, I gotta make something with this!  So, I did.  Presenting....



As you can see, I added two more things to the list:
"Made of steel" and "Twice."




Pretty funny right?  But, that's a screenshot of my desktop, currently.  If you want the wallpaper for yourself, download the picture below:


You should be able to click this image, then right click,
and then "Save Image As."
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this hilarious picture!  Thanks for viewing Play The Keys!

Woah.

Wow!  I think this may be the longest time that I haven't posted something.  And well, there hasn't really been a ton going on lately, with the exceptions of a few things...

1. School is almost done!  I'm going to be done school whenever I finish my VLACS courses - which are all close to done.  I'm excited!

2. MCC Audition update!  So, I just attended my first "monthly meeting" where all of the worship team meets together.  It was last night, and I had a ton of fun!  I don't yet have a date when I will be serving, but I'll tell you guys when I do!

3. Canobie Lake Park.....  I went to Canobie yesterday!  Whooo!  It was a bucket load of fun, and pictures are on the way!

Well, that's really all!  Right now, I have to get to my school, though.  So, thanks for viewing Play The Keys!

P.S. Instagram and Vine links will be making their appearance in the Media section soon!

Super Smash Gadget Video

Hey, all!  So, you may recall the post where I told you about a bunch of stuff that we smashed.  I also told you that I'd make a video showing you guys all about it.  Sooo....what exactly am I telling you right now?  Well...

The video is complete!  Making this video actually only took me about a half-hour.  The reason why I couldn't do it sooner was because of my computer.  I switched from Windows 10 Technical Preview to Ubuntu 15.04 because it was getting waaaay to glitchy to do just about anything on it.  After I switched, I was in no man's land!  I couldn't find any software to edit videos with.  After a long time, I found a program called Openshot.  I just finished the video using this program.  It's a little more work to use, but I think that the videos just come out better.  What do you guys think?

Anyway, make sure to check out the video!  Just hop over to the "Media" section on this site, and click the Youtube logo.  Then you can see my Youtube channel!  The video is named:  Super Smash Gadget.

Thanks for viewing Play The Keys!

Animal Safety

Hey, all!  So, today I'm doing a school project on animal safety.  (As the title implies.)  Without further ado, here is what I gotta say!

Wild animals can be very dangerous things if you don't know what to do when you encounter them.  They can effect anybody from babies to teens to adults.  These animals can range anywhere from black bears, to fisher cats, and essentially any harmful animal.  If you live in a town like ours, (a forest town that's literally crawling with wildlife) you'll know this for yourself - the animals who live there can harm you.  Not all of them do, but most of them can.  Now, the question is, how do you deal with these animals?  Do you fail your arms and run, stand in one place, or charge at them?  Here are a few tips from www.safetyrisk.net:

  • First, as a precaution, no one should ever hike alone: The buddy system will deter most wild animals from attack, but if attacked, a buddy can run for help.
  • Carry a walking stick, and make a lot of noise as you walk. Giving the animals fair warning that you are on your way will keep them from attacking out of surprise, and a walking stick can become a weapon or deterrent.
  • Never run from any animal. Wild animals may instinctually attack, and domestic animals may chase and attack in play. Instead, back away slowly.
  • Never scream or yell around a wild animal. Loud noises can induce an attack. Remain as quiet as possible if you encounter an agitated wild animal.
  • Do not approach wild animals, and if you happen upon them on accident, give them room to escape immediately.
  • If you encounter a wild animal and it seems agitated or ready to attack, make yourself appear bigger. Stretch your arms and legs out wide, and if you have a walking stick, extend it in the air. Anything you can do to appear larger will make the animal retreat.
As you can see, there are many ways that you can protect yourself from these creatures.  The main idea of this is - don't panic.

As part of my school project, I need people to share this.  Please either share this post with the buttons below, or post this link: http://www.safetyrisk.net/wild-animal-safety/ onto some kind of social media or blog.  It'll only take a second!  Thank you so much!
