Sheet Music
It’s hard for me to conjure up writing inspiration out of thin air. Every once in a blue moon, a creative burst will strike out of nowhere, but for the most part, I need assistance. This can come from a number of sources, but a big one for me is music. Often, when people talk…

Hiding Away From It All
This piece is brought to you by Earl Sweatshirt’s 2015 album, I Don’t Like Shit, I Don’t Go Outside. Hello, pallies. As of late, I have been in an…odd mood. My days and weeks consist of intense fluctuations between happiness, anger, paranoia, hopelessness, bliss, and the like. The scary part is that it happens in…

Greedy Me
I grew up catholic, but didn’t really pay attention to any of the lessons there (I just liked the coloring books). My adolescence was a classic case of rebelling against religion and becoming an obnoxious atheist in the process. As time went on, my arrogant abrasiveness to organized religion decreased and I slowly came back…

The Overwhelming Nature of Existence
I made the mistake of letting my guard down. This is not something new for me nor is it something only I have experienced. In an ever-changing world that demands we must be ready to act at a moment’s notice, whether to benefit our lives or other’s, it becomes very easy to be overwhelmed by…
