[decoding-the-secrets]

So 1st day back to college after winter break and coming into the second semester of college.. It was awesome! The classes I have today that I also have Wednesday are Intro to Humanities and Intermediate Algebra. I wasn’t sure what I was going to expect when walking into and even walking to humanities class. So I signed in, grabbed a syllabus, and settled down. Then the instructor eventually came in and started talking. Then I had intermediate Algebra which (in the afternoon since humanities is my morning class) I heard rumors that the instructor for that class sucks and her voice is annoying… Other people I’ve talked too have said that she’s good. But regardless, the rumors about her weren’t true. Well not when I had her class today. She was really nice and funny! There was this part during class whether I wasn’t sure if she was joking or not because she said something like “I don’t know why I’m acting this nice today.” And questions marks literally started going off in my head lol. Anyways today was a good day. I already did my Humanities assignment that isn’t due til like the 20th. I guess I miss school too much for doing an assignment so early ha. I mean I was bored for a couple hours til my afternoon class so I gotta do something lol. Anyways, I’m actually looking forward to my humanities instructor’s lectures for the next couple of weeks and days.. That’s how much I loved her class today! Tbch I think my humanities class will probably be my most favorite class this whole semester. I wonder what my English class is going to be like. I haven’t had the class yet. I start it Thursday and I’m wondering what the instructor is gonna like… But the thing I mostly wonder is.. who’s gonna be in my class. I get wonder that the most 😂That’s just how I am when it comes to school I guess. But I gotta have a classmate buddy. If I don’t then idk what I’d do I’d be so bored but even if I don’t make a classmate buddy in any one of my classes I’ll be fine. 😂😂 I love college.

Talking of music, and muses.

So living and working in this weird place, Ocean Beach.  I have been forced to succumb to the trials and tribulations of the 9-5 gig.  So here I am managing, creating, doing whatever it is I do for a new clothing store.  On a good day, I enjoy the heck out of it.  I work with my friends, family, and get to unleash some creativity in some regard.  However like most jobs, it has a tendency to feel fruitless at times.  When I fill my time with fruitlessness, my creativity energy becomes suffocated... something like playing fort as a child.  By the grace of your imagination; the fort initially is fun and whimsical, through the distractions of your new surrounding.  After spending days, or weeks in the fort one might find themselves ripping flesh from their faces, and covered in feces.  Or something of the like.  Now how does one fix his fate when working a job, a fortitude of distraction of the worst degree.  Well, if you were wondering, one of my favorite ways to cure it is with music.  When my energy is flowing I make my own.  When it isn’t I embed myself into the a unique world created by the maker, of whatever is suiting my fancy that day.  Most recently I have “rediscovered”, as I so often do, a particularly delightful album called This Is Happening by LCD Soundsystem.  I have been dancing to certain songs on it such as Dance Yrself Clean but certain tracks like Home blend together instrumental, and vocal layers on a special level, that makes me feel alive.  What this drawn out article is really getting at is, if you need a little inspiration during or after a repetitive day doing whatever it is you do.  Do yourself a little favor and look it up.  Below is a link.  Enjoy!
