I love how it’s a month after my birthday and TWO of my friends both gave me late birthday gifts in this same week…
and they both handed me the same thing…
a pack of Lucky Strikes each…
I think they want me dead.

Sorry it took a bit longer to post this!
After ‘Bandage’ it’s not really in any specific order. I wanted to add more movies but I made sure not to let it get past 10.
A lot of my favorite movies have to do with a musician in some way hahaha ^^;;
I wrote down a couple words that were floating in my head onto my notebook this morning.
Went to class then came home and took a nap.
After the pouring rain woke me from my nap I went to my desk and looked at the notebook…
30 minutes later I have almost a whole song written…
Turn on the keyboard.
An hour later I have almost a whole song.
It’s funny because just the other day I was thinking that I haven’t written new lyrics for a few weeks. (Trying to focus on finishing current ones and not have a thousand incomplete songs.) Then I thought “how do I even begin to write my lyrics?” I mean I don’t just go “I wanna write about ___”, then sit down and do so. Sometimes I wish it worked like that for me but I kinda just look at my notebook and and the songs already there I guess… I never thought about it before. I couldn’t figure it out and I got worried “what if I can never write lyrics again now that I asked myself ‘how?’ what if I just opened Pandora’s box in my mind??” hahaha but then today I wrote a new song and same as before… I have no idea how it happened really.
I will never truly understand inspiration. I’m just glad it’s always there.
“See that rope between the rocks?”
“Yeah.”
“That is a Shinto sign showing they are married.”
“What, the rocks?”
“Yes. They’ve been together so long…
our people thought it was time they should get married.
They look well together, don’t you think?”
“Yeah, they make a handsome-looking couple.”
Sayonara (1957)
