Sleep Paralysis. Horrific Dream. Sleep Paralysis. Horrific Dream. Ghost. Ghost. Ghost. Wake Up. Where am I? Dead. It’s been another day where I wake up to an intense dream, more recently they’ve all been about my late grandpa and they’ve been getting more and more… well for the lack of a better word intense. This…

The Art That I Love
A lot of my life feels like it was spent trying to prove people wrong. I’ve been trying to relearn how to read sheet music, so I was looking at the cliché piano piece Für Elise and I had a quick flashback to the year I took piano lessons in elementary school. I remember my…
“It Doesn’t Matter, I Have To Kill Her Because She Looks The Part”
I have a problem with reoccurring nightmares, especially when I’m under a lot of stress. These past few weeks it’s been a similar dream, all with having to be Middle Eastern. The dream Goes Something like this. A good friend of mine and I are walking down the street and we happen upon a lady in…
Foggy Daze
It’s been a stressful and taxing few weeks. Going from having a couple of courses to more courses than I can keep track of and staying away from my own personal work has been a huge lesson in time managment. I think things would be a bit different if my travel time wasn’t so far from each…
#NewMusic – Sunflower Kiss: Improvising on the Piano
Something you may not know about me is that I love to improvise on the piano. It’s actually where a lot of my music comes from. There’s a freedom to writing without thinking a freedom to express anything I’m feeling without having to struggle to put words to it. Being able to play the piano…
It’s right back to school
This year a lot has changed in my life. I’ve strapped myself in and have been getting a lot more serious about my career. Last year, I took a big step by applying for some teaching jobs I didn’t think I’d get, but lo and behold I got a position in the public sector. Today…
Goodbye Hard Drive
The past few days have been stressful for me. We had contractors come in to fix our windows (which I will talk about in another post) and so I had to disassemble my office and along the way, my hard drive crashed. Its pretty insane that my hard drive crashed since the hard drive wasn’t…
this is my town. this is my city.
I’ve been feeling like a machine as of late. I’ve gotten myself on a pretty strict routine to make sure I get all the work I need to do done. I do take breaks, don’t get me wrong, but even those feel like they’re routine and I feel like I can’t break out of the habit….
Settling in Our New Home
It’s a pretty insane thought, but we moved again. After only living a few months in our old place, we decided to move out of it to find a bigger space that was suitable for us and our animals. Our old condo was amazing, but with the cats running around, our chinchilla needing a lot…
Picking up the Flute Again
I was working on demos again today and thought to myself, you know what would be awesome in this song…? If there was a flute! I haven’t picked up my flute in years and quite frankly I didn’t know if I would remember the fingering for it, let alone how to blow into the darned…
