sounding off

I'm not gonna lie, this no readers/no subscribers or followers thing, is starting to get to me
Is my life really that boring?
I keep telling myself its because I just started and people don't know about me yet
but this is post number....35? I think
depressing...
almost as depressing as this room/studio search I am in the middle of wading through
or drowning in... more like.

It probably doesn't help that I am not quite sure what I am searching for
I think it would be amazing to branch out and live in a new part of LA
West Hollywood appeals to me
But then I will need to commute.... ugh.

I thought maybe I could just stay in the coffee shops working on my stuff
but in reality I am going to be holed up in my room
either that or be with my fellow friend who is scheduled to take this hellish class as well
Plus I learned today that my gym membership doesn't run out until I cancel it... so I might as well take advantage of that while Im here for the extra month.

And this is why I have no followers.... because I talk about my gym membership. ha

So what do I find interesting for today?
This is pretty amazing
This is an image of boy hearing for the first time:


“This photo was taken by photographer Jack Bradley and depicts the exact moment this boy, Harold Whittles, hears for the very first time ever. The doctor treating him has just placed an earpiece in his left ear. Date unknown."

This brings up the topic that I have thought about multiple times
There is that one party question ( which is really not so happy-go-lucky kind of material) that asks, "Would you rather be deaf or blind?"

I have always had the hardest time trying to come up with my answer... and I think I have decided I would rather be blind... because music is literally the only thing that can save me at times... what would you pick?

An example of this would be last night
After finding out the news (check it if you don't know what i'm talking about)
I was pissed and sad and extremely over emotional, I just didn't know what to do or how to feel
I was lost
and then I put on music
sometimes it makes my emotions stronger, sometimes it makes them more obvious, but somehow it works... I think it just helps me sort everything out in my head
Without it I would be a complete wreck

I can't imagine being this little boy
This is such a powerful moment in his life

To be grateful for our working eyes and ears... here is a little treat for you:
