“All My Poetry” is so good!!! And I’m even happier it’s over 3 minutes long. The K-pop group Close Your Eyes debuted with the Album ETERNALT on April 2, 2025 (it’s technically an EP on Spotify, but it’s as long as an album, so that’s what we’ll call it). After watching the music video forContinue reading “ETERNALT Album Analysis/Review”

Samples of Life
My artwork is a divided circle filled with various patterns. The subject matter of my art piece is African patterns and zentangle drawings. I titled my drawing “Samples of Life.” The title is inspired by the song “Symptoms of Life” by WILLOW. Elements that are obvious in my piece are the use of different lines,Continue reading “Samples of Life”
Back Home
This is a collage I made for my art class that was supposed to reflect a memory or dream I had. This collage was supposed to represent Africa (or Cameroon more specifically) as I hadn’t been there in a while. The collage itself was a bit rushed and I wish I had taken more timeContinue reading “Back Home”
The Electric State: Good Books vs. Bad Adaptations
The Electric State, which was created by Simon Stålenhag, had a movie adaptation released on Netflix on March 14, 2025. I had high hopes for this movie as I had already been interested in The Electric State. Yet, I was unpleasantly disappointed. Not that the movie was terrible or anything. I remember finishing it oneContinue reading “The Electric State: Good Books vs. Bad Adaptations”
Face Off
This is an art piece I did based on the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat. It is meant to symbolize crossing boundaries and showing your true self, like taking off a mask. The being in the middle is drawn to look like a skeleton (showing its “true self”). I drew different faces that resemble different masksContinue reading “Face Off”

“I Catch Glimpses…” Poetry Prompt Response
Prompt: “I catch glimpses of who I used to be, scattered like broken pieces of glass. Each shard reflects something different, and I’m left piecing it all together. But how do I rebuild what’s been shattered when I’m not sure where to start?” My mind is blinded by the flashing lights Of my distant futureContinue reading ““I Catch Glimpses…” Poetry Prompt Response”
The Eurocentricity of Fantasy Literature – English I Honors Project (1/28/24)
I have read fantasy literature my whole life, and I would hate to read anything else. From kingdoms led by dragons to magical warrior cats, I have had my fill of fantasy. Fantasy brings wonder and escapism to people young and old. The most notable ones would be Disney movies. Unfortunately, the representation of diverseContinue reading “The Eurocentricity of Fantasy Literature – English I Honors Project (1/28/24)”
Beautiful Mind Album Review/Analysis
Xdinary Heroes is a band whose music I have come to enjoy. I first got into them when they released their album Troubleshooting and their pre-release singles that came before their LIVE and FALL album. My favorite song from Troubleshooting was probably “Dreaming Girl” or “Until The End of Time”, and my favorite song fromContinue reading “Beautiful Mind Album Review/Analysis”
