artists & bands i recommend if you like will wood!!
jhariah: very theatrical, clever lyricism & unafraid to blend various genres into something he can so beautifully call his own.
bear ghost: has a sort of vampiric essence to them similar to will's. like jhariah, their music is theatrical & upbeat.
machinery of the human heart: also happens to be from new jersey. the music is composed of his haunting vocals & intricately played piano melodies. my personal favorite song by him is champagne from his first album, surgery.
human zoo: i haven't looked too closely at anything by them yet, but their album wealth and hellness features collaborations with will wood on the titular song & machinery of the human heart on the sixth track, fever dream.
sarah & the safe word: dark cabaret. need i say more ?
#random thoughts#doing this because my head is in a fog.#i want to work on the album but my voice is out of commission so i can't.#(it may even be a bit late. probably not but. at this rate i mean.)#i want to write. but i'd much rather be finishing my album first.#i want to play video games by myself or with my boyfriend. but i am at my mother's now and cannot.#and finally there's studying. but i don't really want to do that.#for all of my exams i can picture the grade simply. spanish is somewhere in between 8 and 9.5#while english is around the same. a 9 at most.#history will probably be an 8 or lower but only as low as 6.#that's all without studying. i tend not to study for my exams unless they're subjects i struggle in.#like chemistry...... and physics........ and maybe geography to some degree..........#oh silly me. i forgot to add the#will wood#tag until now.

a lot of people see liu as jeff’s older brother, and while i agree that it makes more sense, it’s so much funnier to imagine him as younger than jeff. we know jeff is 13, and making liu younger means the police genuinely believed a like 10-12 year old was able to single-handedly beat three kids, one likely twice his size, is so fucking funny. they sent a fuckign toddler to juvie
#icarus speaks#creepyposting#i THINK the reason i started thinking this#is bc they go to the same school. and i always imagined it as a standard middle school (6-8)#since jeff is 13 that’d make him an eighth grader. meaning unless they were twins#liu would have to be at a lower grade#i never really considered it being a like k-12 school#or 6-12 or whatever#logically i now know liu was likely meant to be like#16 or something#but i refuse to let it go because it’s too funny to me

i can essentially define different stages of my lfie based on what i was hyperfixated on actually 😭 grade 6 was a sad year ... nothing ...
#ramblings#grade 4 was worse though . h*rry p*tter#i dont know what grade 1-3 me was on though . that star wars phase was INSANE and i wasnt even allowed to watch it#i distinctly remembering repeatedly checking out several encyclopedias and books of the movies#i literally had all of the encyclopedias memorised and im not exagerating.#im actually scared of 6-8 yr old me what was he doinggg oh my god

so wait, since i was just reminded of the recorder thing donna talked about in the giggle, i now have a question for uk ppl: do yall learn the recorder in school? like in a music class? and like how much do yall have music class over there?
#this is a very interesting topic for me as a music educator from the us#ik a guy from ireland and he said there was no music class in schools for him and like not the same country BUT same island#(as northern ireland. not the others in the uk but still)#and its so wild and fascinating music education is a fascinating field and the way we do it in the us seems to be largely vvv unique to us#for clarification on how things are different so ppl have a better idea on how to answer my question lol:#in the us music class is standard in elementary schools and most places have general music until abt 5th/6th grade (year 6/7)#(general music = basics- music games learn recorder SOME notation-reading; often classroom instruments eg boomwhackers claves maracas#orff instruments if you're lucky/from a school district that isnt poor. also some world music)#its less standardized after that and not every school will have music after middle school but concert bands and choirs are both huge here#choirs start right on the heels of general music classes (sometimes start earlier + students elect to be in choir instead of general music)#bands USUALLY start in 4th grade (year 5) but sometimes can be later 5th/6th (year 6/7) or even 7th (year 8) (WAY less common)#depends on the state generally 4th is most common i think (choirs start at around the same time i think so probs 4th but choir isnt my area#orchestras are weird bc theyre a lot less common but can commonly start younger bc of one of the big approaches to music ed (suzuki method)#so like maybe 3rd grade (year 4) maybe 4th w/ band (year 5) but i have a friend who teaches at a private school#& said they have 1st/2nd graders (year 2/3)!! orchestra is also not my area though#also marching bands: vv common! usually just in hs (starting 9th grade / year 10) bc it supports the football team at games#but starting in 8th grade (year 9) is also common (sometimes even 7th / year 8)#theres two different styles: collegiate/show band and competition. former is very rah rah pop music etc; competition is more abstract#show bands are clearly designed to entertain whereas competition is designed to be more impressive and tell a story#so more impact moments abstract shapes/lines on the field and has movements - opener ballad closer (fast-slow-fast)

one thing abt being disabled/chronically ill that some people don’t get is that sometimes body maintenance that ensures you have the absolute minimum amount of function can also be something that takes away a lot of control and autonomy. you can argue till the cows come home that making those decisions to try and help yourself (or realistically to try to make sure things aren’t worse than they already are) is something that exhibits control and autonomy and stuff, but they can be so limiting in practice because they’re things that take up so much time but have to be done to do anything else
#i have to sleep a lot. i’m at the point where functioning requires 8 hours of sleep if not more#I should probably be getting 10+ but i’m a student and i work so 8 is the minimum. but then also getting ready for bed is a whole process s#the whole thing can take 10-12 hours depending how much im sleeping. just to make sure i can do anything#that is time in my day i cannot use for anything else. it’s not ‘oh but i can push through it’ because i can’t without spending the next da#lightheaded and nauseous and vaguely dizzy and with such intense brain fog I can’t think with my fatigue so bad i genuinely don’t know how#get myself to work a lot of days. my abled peers don’t have to deal with this at all. they have unlimited study time if they want to#and yeah it is a choice i’m making that’s true i could just not do. except i would lose my job and fail out of college because i would not#be able to get to classes or do my homework or think. but being told ‘but you are making choices about your life’ when i have lost so much#of what i used to be able to do because i am spiralling down and continuing to get worse is so.#literally last year i would wake up at 6:30 and then go to school till 3 and then go to my internship until 10 and get home at 11 and be in#bed anywhere from midnight to two in the morning and then wake up the next day and do it all again. i graduated with a 3.9 gpa and made it#into my top college while dealing with my cancer symptoms and then the two surgeries about it#but now i lose half my day to just making sure i can get out of bed. i can’t go anywhere because my body is physically too exhausted#any extra time goes into doing homework or occasionally time to myself#not decimating my health by doing minimum body care responsibilities isn’t freeing. occasionally i have a good day which is freeing but tha#usually goes into just. other things outside class or work or eating. I don’t go do something for myself or go do something fun on good day#because I still can’t. good days just mean i don’t want to lie down on the pavement when i’m going somewhere#I just. I don’t magically have control over my life because i try to get enough sleep. i lose half my day to doing that and ultimately it’s#just a bodily function that would have to happen anyway#this is a vent post im just having a really hard time right now because it feels like im in exponential decline. it was nowhere near this#bad last semester. my grades are tanking and i have no free time because anything outside of sleep is either work or school#vent tw#yall can rb this just ignore my tags completely#disability#chronically ill#i keep trying to explain to people how pots works because that’s all logical but there’s no way to explain what it’s doing to my body or ho#i feel all the time. the last time i felt this bad was when i had a bad flu or immediately after surgeries because i don’t react well to#anesthesia and always come out of them feeling like shit. and now i just feel like this all the time and it’s only getting worse#I can’t even stay up late anymore because my body feels like it isn’t counting the sleep even if I get 8 hours#I can deal if I have a free day the day after but that just leaves Friday and Saturday nights and I usually still have to do homework

i cant explain, but an 8 is better than 9
#out of 10 i mean#it feels like the first second third place situation#actually i can explain#a 9/10 feels like i could have done better to get a 10/10#but an 8/10 feels like “well at least i didnt get an 7/10 it could have been worse”#(7 is the lowest passing grade)#in some places 6/10 is the passing grade but not where i live#study#study blog#study motivation#studyblr#study aesthetic#studyspo#study-core-101#student#study community#studyinspo#study memes#studying#studyblr community#student life

i will always advocate for skipping classes btw. to all the high schoolers following me: don't sweat having a perfect attendance record it quite literally does not matter. if anyone tells you good attendance is important for being considered for scholarships they're lying to you. my attendance was fucking abysmal and i was offered several full-ride scholarships because my grades were still solid and that's all 90% of colleges care about.
and besides. taking care of yourself - whether you need a mental health break or you're tired or you just frankly don't want to go to that fucking class - should always take priority! now don't take a page from my book and skip a month and a half's worth of pe classes because you ditched One Time because the coach said he was going to make everyone run a mile that day and then he kept trying to get you to "make up" the mile that you missed so you kinda just stopped showing up until he gave up on you forever like please know that you should go to class regularly BUT.
i think taking time off and leaving early and such needs to be normalized. for school and work. i don't think it's fair to punish people for needing breaks. the human brain is literally not made to sit in the same stifling environments for 8 hours almost every day and just focus on "working" or "studying" and "learning." it's very cruel to deprive young, still developing minds especially of proper breaks and time to Play (not that it's not cruel to do the same to adults)
if the system won't give them to you freely though... well. break the rules a little. you know your limits better than anyone. don't try to work to an impossible standard. rest when you need to!! it's very, very easy to burn yourself out, but it's very, very, very, very difficult to recover from it
#i believe all teachers should have flexible due dates on their assignments and should accept late work without penalty#like. i can't fathom the purpose of strict due dates and no late work policies. the only Real deadline is when grades have to be submitted#maybe a week or a week and a half before that hard deadline can be the last call for turning in missing work#because obviously if 15 students turn in All of their missing assignments the day before their teacher has to finalize grades like#that's not going to end well for anybody. but outside of That#there's no fucking point in no late work policies. some hs teachers are idiots man like your kids have 6-8 other classes yknow.#and a life outside of school. jobs. sports. clubs. friends. time for themselves so they can unwind and recharge#do you want them to rush through your assignments and get everything wrong? or copy all the answers off of google?#or do you want them to learn what you're teaching them? if you want your kids to learn you have to be flexible and open#i believe there should always be an alternative to taking tests. they work for some students but not everybody#if you cater to only one style of learning and only 1/8th of your class learns and retains the material like.#that's not the kids' fault. it's not their failure. it's Your failure for not being an actual fucking teacher#ugh. can you tell i'm extremely passionate about this Lol#sometimes when i tell people i want to be a teacher they're like are you sure...?#and then at some point we might have a conversation about the education system and i'll go on a tirade and they're like i understand now.#starts punching walls and stuff

I'm picking up the piano again after a decade, and though I'm rusty, it's a lot easier than I was expecting.
#piano music#piano#royal conservatory of music#it would be funny if I got my bachelors#returning to piano#I'm even pulling a sneaky and just jumping from grade 6 to grade 8 because I just wanted something challenging as an adult#sonata in c major is what I'm starting with
