I know it's not Monday but I'm not doing much tomorrow and the rest of tonight so might as well crank out a post in the meantime, it's been a pretty eventful two days so this post is gonna be a long one in comparison to the past few posts. I actually did stuff this time, and one major update I'm pretty happy about. I'll cover yesterday, Saturday to be exact. I'm not sure if I talked about this but I'm pretty sure I did but I ended up taking a trip to Georgia for a trip in general, as I go there a few times every year for family. I left pretty early, somewhere like 6 in the morning which is pretty unusual as I usually head out around 8:30 or 9 in the morning and end up getting there pretty early in the afternoon but we ended up getting there about 10:30, which was very off to me as I'm so used to getting there later than that so I wasn't sure what to do, but that quickly changed as I ended up going to this weird little glorified thrift store in town t...

I don't exactly know what to write here, if I'm gonna be honest. Not much has happened in the last week. I really haven't consumed anything, or done anything I'm exactly happy with and I don't really wanna talk about school right now so I'm kinda stuck in a rut on what to write about, the only thing on my mind right now is like, how much I hate my school but I don't wanna keep being negative in all my posts, that's lame. After this week though I feel I'll be better. I think I'm in a mental rut because I literally haven't done much to warrant any dopamine reactors in my brain to go off, which from today forward I'm gonna set a precedent that I have to watch something every single day, from now on. Why? Watching things is fun, so of course I wanna watch stuff. It'll help calm me down as I've been feeling so stressful these last few days, so much so that I found my first white hair! It's on my wrist and it sticks out very much, I...

Hello, it's been a few days and for that I wanna say sorry, but it's been a worthwhile few days. For starters, the JPEGMAFIA concert. That was genuinely the most fun I've had at any event and I'm so happy it was for my favorite rapper, and the fact it was on my final day of school as well, it genuinely felt everything at that point was coming together, just for the record, 80% of the post will be about this show. I ended up at the venue at 4:43 PM and we waited in line until the doors open, then we had to go to the back of the line because I forgot my ID, which was disappointing but I still got a good spot nonetheless which I'm thankful for. I noticed throughout the line a lot of people had graphic tees on, most notably the Veteran tee, which I never saw until now in person so that was cool, and I also saw some extra stuff like an American Psycho shirt and a Tommy Wright the 3rd one too. I was in line for nearly 2 hours but it was worth it 100%. For being my first ...

It's a Thursday right now and I clearly don't know what to do really, since today is a half day there's not much going on outside of exams and nothing has happened really in the last few days to warrant a long detailed post like I usually do. Yesterday was pretty eventful so I'll talk about that and some side stuff. Since yesterday was my first and second class exam, I decided to leave early because after 2nd I didn't have anything else after that and the school allowed us to leave, because I heard through a teacher that they weren't checking for attendance after the period was over. I only had to do one exam though because the day before I got my 2nd period exam out of the way because that class is 90% seniors and it was field day for them so there was literally just me and another senior who didn't leave so the teacher let us take our exams pretty early. It was fairly easy too because it was the exam he'd given us last semester. So the only exam I was ...

It's 5 in the morning right now and I feel like writing a blog post so there's that. I recently started watching a bunch of Japanese movies as stated in the last post and it's been mixed so far. I had to turn off Black Rat , which is the one I planned on doing, but the score was low so I finished Pride & Prejudice instead, which was really good, I enjoyed it very much. I've watched The Happiness of The Katakuris since my last post but WOW it's absolutely amazing, everything about it is just incredible to watch and it's just, great. The acting, the music, just, everything is amazing. Takashi Miike is a great director too, his stuff with Audition was pretty great but this one was out of the park for sure, everything about it was so well done perfectly, been down to the stop motion made for the clay scenes, it was all so good. I plan on watching Tokyo Gore Police tonight, if that goes through hopefully, I've been taking naps after school and waking up w...

There wasn't really a blog post yesterday mostly because there really was nothing to talk about, I still don't feel like there is but unfortunately if I put it off more depending on how much content I have to write I'll start feeling bad, mostly for the lack of writing I'm doing. With all that being said, let's start writing shall we! School ends next week, thank god for that. It's been a stressful last few weeks and I need all the time off as possible, even a week would work but 2 months is absolutely an option I would choose too so I'm not complaining either way. It's not that school was much of a problem before but the new bus ride makes me get home way later than I did before and that's stressing me out because it doesn't feel like I have time for anything really in that day, but alas! A new plan. You guys know how I haven't watched movies recently? Well I'm going to change that. I've noticed that the platform Tubi, which is just ...

Oh wow, it's been forever hasn't it, I am so sorry. Ever since the last post I've loosened up though and I feel much better. There's been a lot of new stuff since my last update life post so let me run through it! School wise, it was nothing much, boring as usual but in 4th period one day we had a substitute teacher that wasn't too bad, that's about as far as that went. Other than that nothing much, school wise at least. I haven't watched a movie in a few days which is driving me a little crazy so I'm gonna watch one tonight hopefully, more preferably Ringu from '97? I think? It looks cool and it has a Arrow release so might as well, they tend to have incredible Japanese movie releases, although as of late their quality control has been horrible since they were bought out a few months ago, even the customers are making jokes about how frequent the quality control has been, more specifically about their 4Ks, you know, I haven't bought a Blu-ray i...

Man, where do I even begin. Not much has happened this weekend except non-stop media consumption, which to me is far more interesting than anything that physically can happen at least, nowadays. Let's see, Saturday, what happened Saturday... Oh right, I watched Audition (1999)! It's a great little film from Japan about this dude who wants to get a wife because his wife died 7 years prior and his son tells him he should get married, so he tries to. There's not really much I can say that wouldn't be a spoiler but it's definitely an unexpected movie, but a great one at that, definitely comes recommended, I enjoyed every single second of it. I also watched both of JPEGMAFIA's visual albums, which are The Ghost Pop Tape and Darkskin Manson , they're both more laid back than I remember there being, if you know you know. I'm particularly enthralled by both because they're genuinely great pieces of work and I wanna experiment like that with my work in the f...

You know, with every break that occurs I'm starting to believe that I lost some great passion for blogging and typing nonsense over the things I'm into, when in fact, that's not the case. I just don't have anything really interesting to talk about in a long form sense, apart from yesterday, when I went to the dentist, so let's talk about that! Alright so, I have a placer (I think that's what they're called) on the back of my bottom teeth as I had braces in 7th grade and they never took them out after, so I'm pretty used to them being in my mouth and whatnot. Recently one of the pieces that was holding that thing together fell off, so it was an expose metal bar in my mouth that was sharp (it often knicked my tongue every one in a while, which hurt) that needed to be replaced quickly, which was the case and what happened. I had to miss a whole day of school (oh no, not my very important education), in which I started watching a Godzilla film, but then turn...

Well, it's the start of a new month, so that's some type of excitement. I've spent yesterday under a lot of self examination after recent events and I still don't know what I should do in order to self improve, it seems obvious right? Like it shouldn't be this hard to figure out what's needed. It's really not though, that's the thing. I know what to do, but I don't really wanna do it because I don't wanna change although change is absolutely needed. I don't know why I don't want change though, I know it's going to help me but I just don't wanna change. It's strange, my mind is all over the place right now though, sorry, not much has happened over the last few days and I need to type something here in order to feel at least some type of accomplishment here, which is surprisingly easy, it takes one thing and I'm rambling about some topic, which is good for me and my mental health. Having the ability to talk about whatever y...

It's been a while hasn't it? Like 3 days? Yeah, my bad. I've had a lot of testing so there's some sort of excuse, although yesterday I was out all day and could've had all the time in the world to watch a Godzilla film or write a blog post but I thought since it was a free day I'd thought nothing of it, and rightfully so in my honest opinion. I know I'm not bound by this blog all the time so I don't have to always write for it, it's just common sense, in my eyes at least. Anyways, let's talk about the last few days! Okay so, school was really nothing Wednesday, I kinda just went and did my thing, I was apart of a game show where I have to guess the Kanye song in under a few seconds, just a side note, Kanye is probably the greatest musician ever, and ultimately I lost unfortunately, didn't help my opinions on everything wasn't exactly positive, so of course, I felt bad about it. What else, oh yeah so I have to do a slideshow presentation o...

You know what's tiring? Spending 3 hours in a class, regardless of what you and how much you like the class. You're going to be tired regardless, as was I yesterday and how I am today most likely. I wish I had some type of grasp on why they went this route for the schedule but I'm genuinely lost considering every other altered schedule is 2 hours in one of the periods, so 3 hour classes are a strange decision, considering I don't think any of the tests are that long from what I can remember from when I did them. I should preface this that my state is doing state tests this week, which, fun, it's not that they're bad to do or anything, but more of a, "oh". It's kind of hard to put into words what I mean right now so that's why this reads an incomprehensible ramble, but the again most of the blog posts are just that. I'm just dreading the 3 hour classes as they're draining for no good reason other than some stupid schedule, the only real ...
