i have just completed my current passion project, an album about being obsessed over someone... very similar to the album i wrote during last spring, now that i think about it.... anyway, i am excited to get it all out my chest for good, it has been very heavy inside me, and i hope releasing the songs about this topic out of my control will lift the weight a tad. there is of course a whole variety... » Continue Reading
i wear my influences as a musician on my sleeve, all my favourite and most listened to ones, anyway. however, there is one album that, although i have listened to at most maybe half a dozen times, it seems to keep coming up in my work. the work is beardfish's "+4626-COMFORTZONE" . i will be frank in saying progressive rock is not my main interest in music by far, eve » Continue Reading
today, or yesterday i suppose by now, i turned twenty years old. two decades. today, or yesterday i suppose by now, i have gained employment. even still, though, the disappointments in everyday life prevail. even still, the pain that has been plaguing me for many months now prevails. it has been a whole year by now, that that last bit reigns true. yet, the beauty of it all is above that. all's goo... » Continue Reading
A, A, B, B, C!!!!! i did way better than i thought i would, frankly. my electronics class i thought i was going to drop, and then perhaps a c, but i finished with a b. my calculus class i initially thought was going to be a c, then i managed a b, and last minute i got an a. unfortunately, for my signals and systems class i was making an a until the very last moment, BUT i am cool with the trade of... » Continue Reading
woke up at 3am to study for my two back-to-back mathematics exams today. the ones whose grades i have been stressing about. i am half a nos in and got an 8oz redbull in my bag ready to go. both last 2.5hrs, with thirty minutes between them. that means i am not out of the weeds for another, at most (and also most likely), eight hours... and i have already been here for four. boy, oh boy. but, i now... » Continue Reading
wanted to climb yesterday morning. slept in too much. wanted to climb this morning. slept in too much again. wanted to do so in the morning so that it is less crowded. so i can just go and get 'er done alone. in focus. twice i failed my ideal, oh well. time to climb now, nearly six in the evening. not alone, perhaps crowded, but something is better than nothing, perhaps? maple bacon shall be conqu... » Continue Reading

i finally have my academic schedule sorted out for the next 8 months... taking easy computer science courses i accidentally may have jumped ahead of over the summer and really cool electrical engineering courses over the fall. those cool fellas include intro to vlsi design, solid state devices, and robotics project lab. meanwhile, i have applied to many a job hoping to get earn some cold, hard cas... » Continue Reading
in today's ever-important electronics quiz: i aced it. or, well, i would have, would it not have been for a minuscule arithmetic error. you see, i found in a pnp bipolar junction transistor in active region of operation the emitter current and the base current with ease. therefore, collector current, what was important for a big amount of the problem was as simple as ie - ib = ic, or .4mA -.006 mA... » Continue Reading
as the ear sings it's own tune, a tune that could break a wine glass should anyone else be able to hear it, i remember what i ought to, i ought to read for an exam that i am entirely unsure of. i am still entirely unsure how time slips through my fingers like this. i look at clocks every so often and the numbers are far larger than i expect them to be. today's objectives: laundry, study, work on w... » Continue Reading
