My Blog

REVERSAL.

Never again will I let anyone finish; I'll be the end of every way. The rime creeps back up the walls and the lambent flames dissipate to a more tolerable intensity.  'The cycle' turned out ...

Howl with me!

Everything seems so clear now. All it took was the best show I've ever been to, put on by the best Finnish power-metal band in existance.  That's right: Sonata Arctica. I'd say they rocked my soc...

These walls built to stand come-what-may...

...lie shattered in the ashes. Apparently it is done, or at least it's sinking further into obscurity.  Don't ask, I have far too much to say. On the upside, this may have forced the answer to a ...

I believe...

...this heart of mine when it screams at time that this is forever. Gildenlow quote aside, I would be lying if I said I believed time to be constant or, at the least, consistant.  Existance, real...

I figured that my last blog seemed sort of odd without a follow-up.  I composed what ammounts to a dissertation (heavy on catharsis and pedagogy [irony!]), but myspace ate it. I guess you'll...

Quick questions...

What do you care about the most? What do you hold to be a truth of existance? What do you find most important in other people?

A day of sleep deprived adventures...

Recipe for success.

What a night. Irish car-bombs + tobacco high (been a while; a welcome return) + watching cars pass by = loss of balance. Then I find out today that I got an 89 on my harmony 3 mid-term. I thoug...

What to do, what to do.

I've been thinking recently of the future (not a common practice of mine). I'm not sure if I want to stay in Boston for a Berklee degree. It's so much work, and I'm rediculously stressed out; howeve...

Piercings. Hm.

So everyone told me I'd never be able to stop at one. I figured I wouldn't be too drawn to the feeling of a needle through my face, but it seems they were right. I think later this week I might ...
