Fish Food

I felt like naming Horoscope-related things Fish Food because I'm a Pisces and I'm not really sure.  It's 2 in the morning, and I need to get up earlier than I normally do on a weekend (which isn't very early anyways) because I have classmates coming over for a group project.  However, this thought suddenly popped into my head.  Maybe I'll think of a better name in the morning.

(On another note, I'm seeing less and less use for labels since the majority of my posts here are borderline rambling with only hints of connecting themes and whatnot.  Ohwell.)

I was thinking while brushing my teeth, and I realized how far Pisces' paradoxical nature goes.  We usually can't handle the truth, but at the same time, we seek that shit like water.  We can't handle our emotions half the time, but at the same time, we love just feeling feelings, and we use it like fuel for things we do, like poems and songs and blogposts.  Like, it's just like LIVING IS GREAT BECAUSE I CAN FEEL THINGS??? but at the same time, LIVING IS NOT NICE BECAUSE FEELS???  I'm not really sure myself ahaha.

My Family is Incredibly Amusing 1

Naming it with a 1 because I have no clue what to name this but I know that there'll be more posts like this one and I most likely won't know what to name all those other ones too. Unoriginality at its finest, folks.

Reply to the Value of Fulfillment

(Does it seem like I'm doing too many "reply to Eva's blogpost with a blogpost because my answer is that freaking long"?  Sobs I feel like I've been doing a lot of those lately ahahaha.)

Anyways, I wanted to do a reply post to this cuz I've also thought about this before.  Many. Freaking. Times.

So, it starts with this question: If getting an "A" is supposedly "above and beyond", then would that mean that the teachers model their expectations on something that is not even a whole?  Afterall, "B" is equivalent to 80 out of 100.

However, isn't this expectation that an "A" is what we are supposed to achieve actually a new development?  We've noticed, after all, the fact that the education system is pushing for more and more with each generation.  A few generations ago, colleges were considered above and beyond.  Nowadays, they are the expected standard.  Prodigies are the same.  Each year, it feels like the "new genius" is younger and younger.

Therefore, it's safe to say that one person's obligation is not the same as another person's.  A person working at his or her job can put all of his or her effort into the job, stating that it is because that is what they are supposed to do.  At the same time, however, we can have another person working that same job without having the same feeling of obligation towards the job.  Perhaps he or she has obligations elsewhere, maybe with family, or a games, or a hobby.

Let me try to make this into a singing analogy, because everything I do turns into a huge metaphor anyways.  Some people are good at singing, while others are good at mixing, or drawing, or animating.  Just because one person can sing really well doesn't mean we all should.  If you want to animate, then good for you!  If you want to mix, then yeah! Great job!  And in the comments section, there's variety in expectations there, too.  Some people praise for effort, while other praise for good mixing, or professional-looking results.

I'm not saying that a person can't be obligated towards multiple things.  It's more like, people have different priorities.  And if one of your priorities is being kind to others, then, despite that being what you feel you are supposed to do, it can feel like an extra to someone else.  Some people like to put effort into going above and beyond in sports.  Is that what everyone needs to do, then?  No.  You do whatever you feel you should do, what you feel is important.  And if you happen to feel that being kind towards me for whatever reason is on your list of priorities, then jesuschristwithtoastifuckingloveyou thank you so much.

Because if everyone on this planet does everything that they are supposed to do, we mind as well have a planet of robots.

Some more Singing Stuff

So I wasn't entirely studying all the time.  A girl's gotta have fun sometimes, y'know?  And so, I did a thing for Karin in the middle of the night. |D  And it actually seems kinda decent, considering that I did it while half asleep and it was just done really quickly and I was worried that the song might be too fast for me, or that it might not fit my voice.  Ahahaa.... (anxiety is a bitch).

And on another note, Cherri and I are starting Vocaloid Karaoke Database!  This is a Tumblr where we'll put up things that people tend to look for when singing Vocaloid songs!  That would be: Off vocals, romaji lyrics, and guides, such as vocal guides and harmony guides!  Cherri and I both are busy with school as well, though, and this is pretty new, so please be patient as we start putting things up!  And if you want to see a specific song, don't hesitate to request it! >w<

Sophomore Year

Is a lot more demanding than I thought it'd be. Seriously.

(Then why are you making a blog post about it instead of studying? idiot.)
