Released March 27th of this year, RAYE’s new album THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE. has been playing in my headphones on repeat. Anyone that knows me has heard my opinion on this masterpiece. Now, I’m here to try to convince YOU to listen to it. I will do my best to show the magic of the songs without spoiling and ruining the experience for you. It is a 17-track album which takes the listener through the seasons, many eras of music and states of mind. Among these tracks, there is at least one song that you will relate to (for…

How to differentiate classes and jobs in RPG settings. When it comes to combat RPGs, creators tend to implement many ways to get stronger. Two important parts of a status window which can decide the future of entire accounts are classes and jobs. While the two can easily be interchanged, it can be very helpful to know the difference between them.  To begin, RPGs will generally let you have access to jobs right from the start of their game. While some RPGs will simply mark them as tasks and create a simple XP mastery system, others will force you to…

As of recently, I have gotten very invested into the Resident Evil franchise. (As can be seen by the last article I have written). And while I have tried to come up with other subjects to write an article about than those damned games, I sadly cannot get them out of my mind. So instead of writing yet another review, I will present a character from the Resident Evil franchise and all the reasons why he is my personal favorite.  Ethan Winters is the main protagonist in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard as well as Resident Evil 8: Village.

I don’t know how to begin exactly. It feels like I have to write something big, something theatrical. It’d be fitting, since this will be my last post here, and here was the first place where I really got a chance to share my ideas, or at least feel like I could. I got to write my first short story, my first poems, my first essays outside of class… That’s twelve posts in total over the span of two years (plus this one). All of these texts and I wanted to look back to see how proud I really am…

Ah, college required readings. Love them or hate them, I am forced to admit that some of these books were actually very interesting, while others… not so much. Since I am finishing college and I am finished with the required readings, I thought that I would do a good ol’ tier list of them to reflect on the highs and lows of trying to finish a book in the bus right before the test about said book. But before, let’s define each subjective rank that I will give these books: S tier- I loved this book, I maybe would have…

This, I propose to you,A love story, not simply of the other,But also simply of you, too.So listen to my tale of monster;For to love another, you need to love yourself.And to love yourself, you need to know yourself. Sat a spirit, lonely on a tomb,Lonely as a wandering spirit.Perched, a girl, on a forgotten doom,Forgotten as an old candle lit;Never did they know fate would strike.Always did they think they would never like. In a foggy cemetery,A single mourning spirit waited in tearObserving the scenery.The cold cold scenery of fear;How long had it already been?How much time had it…
