But that hasn’t stopped me from expressing myself with the power of, err, machine-generated watercolor effects over the top of neat pictures that I took in order to make them look more dreamlike and magical and like I’m even somewhat skilled in the graphic arts!

Some days, you just need something to lift your mood a little bit. In case you find yourself in the kind of pit that only an adorable concert band piece can lift you out of, here’s an amazing recording of one that sounds like a train.

As anyone who knows my blog can tell, I’ve moved. Again!

Today’s been the first day that I’ve been fully moved in to my apartment, and although I was unsure how my experience would be before I got here, since I’ve arrived it’s been pretty nice. I’m pretty happy with my living situation here, I guess, although I won’t recommend it for fear of doxxing myself (the ever-present danger of talking about your life on the Internet).

More will come later, but here’s a summary for now.

Right now, it’s still the morning. I’m still sitting at my computer and listening to podcasts — that’s just what I’ve been doing for a lot of time within the past week or so (my physics class is finally over, so I’m on a little bit of a vacation).

A lot of the time, that’s a lot of things. They even wrote a whole book about it (“the best-laid plans…”).

To help us get around this big world, we have trains like this one that I saw the other day. And that’s really cool.

Yesterday, I saw this peacock. It seems pretty chill for a bird that usually is a symbol for pompousness and flashiness. Never judge a peacock by the type of bird it is, I guess…

I took a few photos a while ago that I thought looked nice. They were on the blog in a separate post, but I thought that I should recompile them and put them back with a nicer gallery type setup so that you could just click on them to view.
