my family and I just finished star trek picard and I CANNOT stress how many emotions I’m feeling because ending it with the next gen crew at the poker table just like how they ended next gen was such a deserving send off and I’m so sad and so happy and I’m gonna miss them and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH not to mention seven getting her own ship with raffi and jack and sidney I LOVE THEM
just learned my final project for my math class is to make a survey, collect the data and make a presentation about the data which is the biggest win ever for me considering i have three years of fob survey data to use and am working on the fourth years survey rn like. project designed to be so so easy for me fr
"I'm thinking about it right now, actually, funnily enough. This year I thought about it for the first time. Because I'd like to challenge myself. It's got quite comfortable with the way we make music now. And it's got a little bit of a routine to it; that is great and that's the right way to make this stuff but I feel like I'm not stretching myself like I used to, certainly an idea of doing something 100% by myself is quite exciting. Not having to think about anyone else kind of sounds like a nice holiday *laughs*. Everything in the band has to go through the other guys, understandably, but if every part of everything is like that and sometimes you can feel like it's neither here nor there... We're pretty good at avoiding that kind of outcome but... Yeah, I've been thinking about it recently. And I think Alex should make one as well, because he makes a lot of instrumental dance music that never really makes it onto our records 'cause it doesn't fit with the band. And I feel like he could really get some way with some stuff 'cause it's pretty amazing.
[...] We've got very good with just writing songs. I just wanna do something I'm not very good at, like, play the drums or not have Alex there by my side to write the guitar part. That kind of things. Or write a song that's really heavy that doesn't rely on bad troped that I've learned when I was in a nu metal band. You know, trying to do something I haven't done. Which is what it's like being in a band as well, but I wanna sort of cut the support network and see who I am now; I haven't done it alone since I was 14.
[...] I like the idea of challenges in doing something alone... Maybe, I will change my mind, I don't know."
