Erik Satie - Gymnopédie No.1

Sometimes no matter how many friends you have in your life you'll come to a realization that you're completely alone. You always will be and that's okay. It's not about relationships or significant others.

It's just that no one can better understand you but you. No one quite understands your dreams. They pretend to, they sympathize and speculate with you, but you know, that one day when you finally stand on that hot Martian surface, or when you savor that moment before a speech at that long awaited awards ceremony, you'll look down.

You'll see the carefully polished floor underneath your snug fitting dress shoes, the red Martian dirt shifting under the weight of your boots, and it will just be you, your shoes, and no one else. Silence.

Above all else we seek acceptance and understanding. In the end we can only accept ourselves and understand our own condition.

"Anti-Social" on Social Media

Not sure if that's a thing now.

The proper term is "asocial." When my cousins are on their phones during dinner the whole time, my aunt says they are being "anti social" (or non-socializing).

In any case, its hermit mode for me on and offline. I have no energy to talk to people on a Facebook. No energy to comment. Probably a like or react. Same situation offline.

Maybe I like the passiveness of my tiny blog in the corner of the web, writing down everything, unfiltered to a degree. Whereas a Facebook status update, a tweet, or a comment on everything social media + forums often elicit instant replies, likes/reacts, share/retweets, almost like face-to-face interactions which warrant a follow up response.

Ironically, this was the case for blogging. But technology has caught up and, with a smartphone readily available, you can update on the fly.

Maybe I just need to detox. Probably not the proper term.

I'm done.

Nanoblocks - Astronaut

Two updates in a row, huh?

It's been a while since I've done a Nanoblock set. My sister gave this to me as a gift from Christmas.

It's an astronaut set with 120 pieces (not including extras).

I'm done.

Kubros - Evil Minion from Despicable Me 2 (Purple Minion)

Evil Minions are Minions that are at the state of extreme mutation caused by the PX-41 serum entering their blood vessels.

The Evil Minions are for all intents and purposes, made to be indestructible: they are immune to weapons like flamethrowers, guns, axes, and undercover police cars; and are able to withstand the explosion from swallowing a bomb. They will devour and destroy anything that gets in their way, including the above-mentioned weapons. Evil Minions can also repair themselves, and are very dangerous.

The last of my Despicable Me themed Kubros set.

I'm done.

Kubros - Kevin from Despicable Me (Minion)

Kevin is a tall, two-eyed minion with sprout cut hair and is usually seen wearing his golf apparel. He appears in Despicable Me, Despicable Me 2, Minions, and Despicable Me 3.

I had this Kubros set laying around and Despicable Me 3 just came out this weekend. So why not.

I'm done.
