500 WORDS, DAY 95: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 1)

A blank page. A blank canvas. Painting the emotions of my soul. Writing down the words that run through my head. Thinking about life. About the past. About the present. The future. Plans. Lessons to learn from. Decisions to make. It never ends. Life is constantly dying and being reborn. What does it mean to … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 95: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 1)

500 WORDS, DAY 94: What to Write About? All is Relative…

Sometimes I don’t know what to write about, not because I have nothing on my mind, but because I know that, in this life, everything is ultimately relative, and my thoughts on anything could change at any time. I mean, that has to be the right way to live, because otherwise you just close yourself … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 94: What to Write About? All is Relative…

500 WORDS, DAY 93: Growing Up: Hip-Hop, Psychedelics

Yesterday I wrote about the great extent in which hip-hop and its culture influenced me when I was a lot younger, even if not always positively. That influence has been with me up to this point, but just recently it’s starting to really feel like my mind and personality have changed enough that I can … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 93: Growing Up: Hip-Hop, Psychedelics

500 WORDS, DAY 89: State of the World, & State of Mind

It's sad how so many people can't peacefully coexist with others simply because they are different from them or they hold different views and opinions. You would think doing so isn't so hard to do, but maybe you would just be a reasonable and peaceful person trying to live your life and go about your … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 89: State of the World, & State of Mind

500 WORDS, DAY 88: Literary Detour

So, today is day 88 of this writing challenge I’ve set for myself, which consists of posting 500 daily words on here. It’s cool that I’m very close to a hundred days, but I do have to admit that not everything has necessarily gone according to plan. Now, that doesn’t mean anything has actually gone … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 88: Literary Detour

500 WORDS, DAY 87: What is Normal? What is God?

I wonder if I’ll ever feel normal. I wonder if I ever did. It’s easy to say I did… but then again, it’s easy to say I never did. What am I even talking about? Does normal even exist? If I said it doesn’t, that would make sense on one level, because we all operate … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 87: What is Normal? What is God?

500 WORDS, DAY 86: Today: A Moment in Time.

Here I am once again. Drinking a cup of iced coffee while writing for today’s post. Listening to Hiroshi Yoshimur’s ‘Green’ album. I’ve been listening to a whole bunch of ambient music I never knew existed during the past few years, and it’s really become one of my favorite musical genres. There are so many … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 86: Today: A Moment in Time.

500 WORDS, DAY 84: Music Creation & Consumerism

I previously wrote about the funny feeling I get when I think about how deep I’ve gotten into synthesis, and music gear in general, over the last few years. I realize that actual physical gear is no longer even necessary these days for making music. A computer can easily take the place of a mixer, … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 84: Music Creation & Consumerism
