“When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.”
…or should I say, “when I became a woman”

Strange. Deviant. Evil. Corrupted. Just a few words the old me of a decade ago probably would’ve used to describe the person I am now, and he would be right. I became the exact kind of person the old me swore I never would. How did that happen you may wonder? How did the model…
For anyone who knows me or my family, it shouldn’t come as a shock to hear that I hate racists. To be honest though, one’s heritage shouldn’t make a difference in whether or not you tolerate racism. One of the most striking differences between Philadelphia and Lancaster is the more overt racism, especially in southern…
There’s a reason I hesitate to mention my love for metalcore/deathcore in certain circles. I’m sure if I told my Baptist grandmother that I listen to Thy Art Is Murder and Bury Tomorrow, she’d think I started worshiping the devil. In truth, the symbolism of heavy metal is probably its most misunderstood aspect. Many artists…
Okay that’s honestly an awful title for this but I couldn’t resist. A few months before everything went to hell, I was watching Contagion and thought how much that would suck to have to limit contact with others and only be able to communicate electronically with your s/o.

I love music. That should be obvious from the name of this blog. However there is bone I have to pick with fans of varying genres: please, take a chill pill. I get it, there’s a whole spectrum. On one end are those who listen to “everything” and on the other end are those who…
While it’s no secret to most who know me that I’m a metalhead, that’s far from being the only genre I listen to. Some days I feel in the mood for something a little more slower, bright, and melodic. A rhythm that’s more playful than powerful. Music like that can make it a bit easier…
If states were reviewed on Yelp, PA would have very mixed reviews. Lititz is the “coolest small town in America”, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh hate each other, tourists love the idyllic scenery and Amish farms in Lancaster, said tourists and Amish also bring traffic in parts of Lancaster to a grueling crawl, the weather here is…
Yes I did stay up until midnight on a work night just so I could listen to the new album, despite the fact I’m going to be streaming it at work and my CD copy is arriving today. I can safely say, this is an amazing album. If you’re a fan of Breaking Benjamin, you…
This is a bit of a followup to the previous post. This is based on a playlist I made over time on my phone of music I found to be cathartic when I was going through some low spots. I wanted to share this in the hope that someone else finds it as helpful as…
