It's Been A While

So I've recently discovered Mikky Ekko and what the hell have I been doing my whole life? His style of music is just so amazing and unique. It's like a blend of Imagine Dragons with a dash of Lorde, a sprinkle of Muse, a pinch of AWOLNATION and add some dark, slightly cynical lyrics and a magical musical masterpiece is born. The one line that stands out for me is from my favourite song of his, Sedated, "Sarah choked on a pigeon wing." I don't really get it either but the lyrics kind of remind me of '90s kids where kids are kept "sedated with colour and sound." However cynical and weird that sounds, the song is great and I guess there's part of a strange fruit in me too.

Whenever I listen to his songs I just feel like swaying back and forth with the heavy and lulling beat so if you like Radiohead, Gorillaz, MGMT, Imagine Dragons or any other similar artists, I really suggest you give his music a go :)

A Song of Ice and Fire

Can we just talk about this for a second? How can he do this to us? Does he have a heart? Gah I can't even asfjsd;lkgjasdgj;aksdf. Just had to get that out there. 

I'm currently reading the series and every time I pick up the book, I have to mentally prepare myself for the emotional trauma that is inevitable. With each chapter I read, I feel like I'm getting closer to the ultimate sacrifice. I bet he just sits there contemplating how to make his readers suffer and laughs joyfully at our pain. If the series ends with everyone dying, I wouldn't be surprised but I would be heart broken. Sometimes it's annoying getting so emotionally attached to characters in such a great series. I can't even begin to describe what this series so far has put me through and I''m only a little past halfway through A Storm of Swords. I wonder who will die next? I guess I'll just have to endure and wait to find out.

That is all,

On the topic of expectations

I'm sitting here and thinking, how do I express these thoughts through words? It's not so much that I can't do it but finding a way to do so that fulfills the ever-present criteria of expectation. What if they don't like what I have to say? What if it's not good enough? What if it doesn't live up to their expectations? It's always a challenge to come up with something original and we are judged by what we say or do. Our thoughts and our expressions define the type of person we are from the perspectives of others and maybe that's why it's so scary to voice our opinions. We are scared of how other people judge us and how they view our character; whether they like us or not. I am envious of those people who can easily express themselves and are not afraid of what others may think of them. If only my mind was so carefree. I want to be the best person that I possibly can but I am wary of the ever-present judgement in the eyes of others. Sure, I know that I should just do what makes me happy and what I want but having those thoughts and acting on them are two separate things. I realise that I shouldn't take to heart what strangers think of me but it is my nature to want to be liked and to fulfill the expectations of others. What I need is to find a way to set my mind free from the bars of expectation.

Why Hello There

Here's a picture of delicious fooood.

Welcome to my blog :) Just a little introduction first. My name is Angela Sun and I'm 16 years old. I'm quite a bubbly person who tries to stay positive and happy most of the time. Some things that I enjoy are:

~Reading (because exploring a different world is always fun unless there are blood thirsty zombies out for your brains and you're running like crazy. Then that would be both stressful and tiring. I think zombies are the only creepy thing I can't stand. But then there's Warm Bodies... let's not go into that...)

~Playing piano/guitar (even though I'm not that great at them)
~Muuuusic. IMAGINE DRAGONS

~Walking/running with my friend if it's not so cold that my butt freezes off such as now when my hands feel like icicles on the keyboard and the rest of my body is snuggly in bed

~Staying in bed for another 5-20 minutes

~Walking around the house in pajamas (like mostly everyone)

~Drinking tea

~Eating

~Trying out new things and having an adventure

~That clean feeling right after I brush my teeth

~Making lists like this because they're more fun to read unless it's a list of homework or tasks to do...

So that's just a bit about me. We'll see if I have anything else to post otherwise this will just be a one post blog :P
