I had the pleasure of meeting @chanthehuman in Los Angeles for the first time!

We went to an Adventure Time Complete Collection DVD release party event, we met Jeremy Shada, Olivia Olson, and John DiMaggio, and had a Q/A panel! It was so amazing meeting everyone there, meeting some new friends along the way, and getting this beautiful DVD collection!

It was a lot of fun and I’m so grateful for this event bringing everyone together to celebrate this amazing show once again!

And Chandler, it was really great meeting you in person for the first time and I hope we can meet again someday!

I’m struggling so hard right now. I’m struggling to find any words that could ever possibly describe what I want to say. About Adventure Time. About all that it did for me. About the experiences that I have lived through and the beautiful things that flourished inside of me thanks to this show. I’m not sure if those words exist. There was a point in my life where I truly felt like I lost myself. Like I was nothing at all. But then this strange and silly show entered my life out of nowhere. There was just something about it. I would think about it. I would look forward to it. And then I started to smile again. I don’t know what it was. But the years went by and little by little I started to feel like myself again. I started making music. I started to love myself. I would watch it, and I would feel like I was home. I felt something inside me that I thought I had lost forever. And now I’m sitting here typing this to you, eight years later, and I’m still here. I’m still here and I’m so proud of everything that I’ve become and I could never ever imagine how my life would have been without Adventure Time. So, this is my gift to myself. And to all of you. This is a song from my upcoming EP, “A Reason to Be”. Over the past year I have been working so hard on this. I have gone to so many places and done so many things that I was afraid of doing because I knew that I wanted this so badly. And now I’m sitting here in tears because I actually did it. This is real and it’s right in front of me. This is a song that I wrote about moving on. About looking back at something that you love with all your heart, and letting it go. Because things like these can never go away. They shape you. They stay with you forever and become a part of who you are. And I’m trying so hard to believe in that message right now. It’s going to take a lot of time before I really can believe it. Before I can let the show go. But it never really will leave me, will it? So for now... all I can say is thank you. To all of the wonderful people that have supported me over these years who I have shared so many laughs, and so much passion with. To the crew of Adventure Time, for creating something that changed my life and allowed me to find light in a place where I thought no light could be. This is for you. Thanks for the adventure.   

Lyrics:

Let's go back

Back to the river and

See what's changed

Remember when

We sat by the river and

Spent our days

You and me

Down by the river when

We felt no pain

Now here we stand

Back by the river and

It's still the same

Let it go

Let it fly

Let it sing

Let it live

And let it die

These silhouettes

Imperfect skies

A painted world

High above

Made of lies

And if I'm gone

And have no words

I'd think of you

Places seen

And voices heard

Cuz you're still here

By my side

The river flows

To paths unseen

Let's take a dive

Cuz now I'm home

Despite it all

I know

That I am home

The river flows

Oh, the river flows

Time moves on

And memories, they wilt away

But that's okay

Just like a rose

In passing, more beauty grows

In its place

So live for now

The grayness will always feed

A hollow soul

And hold me close

The water will set us free

And make us whole

Cuz now we're home

Despite it all

I know

That we are home

The river flows

Oh, the river flows

We're not who we were yesterday

But in this moment here with you I finally see

That even when dark clouds block out everything

The person waiting in the water is still me

I'm still me

I'll always go back, I'll always go

I'll always go back, to you

I'll always go back, I'll always go

I'll always go back, to you (repeated until end of section)

Let's go back

Back to the river and

See what's changed

I see it now

A life lead by what could have been

Fades away

And no matter where I've been

And no matter where I'll be

I will always go back

And no matter who I am

And no matter who I'll be

I will always go back

And if you're lost

Just go to the river and

Call my name

Then I'll be there

Back to the river where

Things don't change

Just in time for October... I am SO SO proud to share my second and final single off my upcoming EP: "The Shadow's Dance"!

I have wanted to write a song like this for such a long time. It always seemed so impossible to make it happen. But through the unending support of all of my friends that impossibility became reality and I am so so thankful to everyone that was involved in making this come to life.

So if you like spooky vibes, shadow monsters, and the curious temptation of things unseen then DO I HAVE A SONG FOR YOU! :D Follow me on Spotify for more music! :D  https://open.spotify.com/artist/5U64VVY7NetLj2361bqsu3

So today’s the day, you guys. By the time this gets posted, it will already all be out in the open. I will be in the middle of a livestream talking to you about a certain blog some of you have come to know very well over the past few years, a crazy and ridiculous story about a character named Shilo and his fateful run in with an apparition known as “The Shadow”. Yeah. It’s me. I’m @heythatsmyuterus. I don’t even know where to begin with this. What started as a simple spark of creativity, and a long running joke turned into something bigger than I could have ever imagined. I’m a really shy person. And I have a really weird sense of humor. So this blog, and the anonymity of it all, was just so liberating. I wrote whatever stupid thing that popped into my head. I didn’t have to worry about what anyone else would think. I would just write and write and develop this insane and dumb story about a sad boy and a Shadow's eternal desire for... well... you know :)... just to make myself laugh. And the more I did it, the more I found that people were laughing with me. You were actually invested in Shilo’s story and everything that I was doing... and I just want to say thank you for that.  I have cherished my time running this blog in ways I never thought that I would. All the laughs. All the interaction. All the days I spent by your side as Chan, having to walk on eggshells every day trying to not mess up and accidentally post on the wrong blog... or say the wrong thing at the wrong time. All the late nights wracking my brain trying to figure out how to word a post, how to move forward with the story, or just how to come up with an insult funnier than “bowel brain”. OH BOY the list goes on. But it was truly, truly, a privilege to be able to have this experience with all of you.  I always knew I would have to give you guys closure on this one day. The thought of it was always so scary. What would people think of me? What would they say? How can I possibly end something that has become such a big part of my life and properly express how much it all meant to me? So I decided to write a song. :) The Shadow’s Dance is something that I have worked so incredibly hard on and that I am so so proud of, and I’m really hoping that it can serve as something to show you just how much you have all inspired me. I had such a fun time writing it, and not a moment went by where I wasn’t smiling ear to ear thinking about the day when I could finally share it with all of you. This has been such a wild adventure. And for now, it seems like the Shadow is still having a fun time with the blog. So we’re gonna let it keep going until it decides it’s said enough. And as for me? I’m just going to keep laughing along with the rest of you and looking forward to whatever crazy things it might post next. Wait, you thought it was ME who made all those posts? Who told you that?? ;)
