#4 Sickness & Smoke Shops

-
Hello Again,
I've got some serious beef with whoever decided that cold medicine should be nearly impossible to open. Like I shouldn't have to struggle for more than a minute to open a stupid contraption when I'm feeling icky. Just give me my medicine already.
Minecraft is a great game to play when you're sick. It's so peaceful (other than the monsters). Like when I feel like crap it helps a whole lot to just escape for a bit and build a little farm, and then another farm, and another, and then a fountain.
It's funny, there's this smoke shop out near where my grandparents live, and we went to visit them, and I'm old enough to go in there now, so I did. And I'd always heard they had such beautiful things in there, and they do, but it's not like I imagined. Like as a kid I hyped it up in my brain to be this fancy, artsy little shop with purple velvet walls and big displays of beaded things and tapetries and artwork, all amongst the typical smoke shop things. But in reality, it's a smoke shop with a little case that's got like three shelves with pretty things in it. And that's awesome of course, and they have beautiful jewelry you wouldn't find anywhere else, but it wasn't this big, fancy, art-everywhere place like I'd always seen in my head. That's not a bad thing, but it was a little strange for me to see how this place that seemed so  mysterious and enchanting as a child is really just an average smoke shop with one display of pretty things. Silly, huh?
I don't have much else to say, just wanted to rant a little. Have a good one. Go look at some art or hug a tree or watch the clouds pass.

I wanted to mention that I'm finally editing my book. I just dread it until I finally sit down to do it and get in the zone and then it's fun. It's so silly. I can't wait until it's done though. It's gonna take longer to edit then I thought, and then I have to copyright it, and then I gotta publish it, and then I finally get to write some more. I love doing things my own way the whole way through: knitting with no pattern, publishing my own book, learning code for free online. I'm just getting started with my passions and my dreams. I hope my future is as bright as I dream it is. I hope things get better. I hope I can follow through with everything and become a better version of myself. A happier one.

#12 The Quiet Is Loud

-
I never liked the quiet. I mean, obviously I like the quiet to an extent. It means peace, less stress. There's more room for you to exist in your own quiet bubble, doing your own thing. But sometimes . . .  Sometimes the quiet, the dead silence, is so loud. I can physically hear it. It sounds fizzy, almost like the buzz of electricity when I sit too close to the power strip or turn on the old lamp in my room. Sometimes the quiet is so loud it hurts my ears a little. My mind tends to talk a lot, although it's been a little quieter in the last year. It sometimes takes the silence as an invitation to talk on and on and on. It often drives me crazy, but there are also times I just go about my day, doing my own thing while they chatter in the background. On occasion I'll catch a sentence and ponder on what it means, meanwhile the voices have gone silent. I'm not a fan of noise more than a few hours a day, but I also don't feel calm in lonely silence.

#15 I don't feel like naming this one

Hello Again, Ayo. I feel like I come on here and I go to write a new post and I can't think of a single word other than "Ayo" and then I somehow get the words going and, like when I try to pour something, it just turns into a mess because I just rip the thoughts out of my head and put 'em here for you to either ignore or consider and then I post it and try to forget that I spilled my heart and soul out onto my little blog that I doubt anyone will ever read, at least for a long while. You know, I've discovered that I for some reason do not want to be done with publishing my book, and I'm not sure why. I'm trying to think on it a little but I forget to think about it just as well. I don't even know what I'm saying anymore I'm hella tired, man. I'm trying to make a new song in a different way then usual. I like to write music out way different than most people do. For my own personal music making process, I just write the letter of the note on...
