wow Kumori u should start a Kumori fan club

 

[Ellztrap]

If u dont mind me asking, what did u do between the time after u finished ur bachelor and before u started ur diploma

Finished my bachelors, spent a year doing the grad program at my workplace, then I moved to ICU and spent a year doing a transition to ICU program, then started my grad dip.
Built a house, got engaged, went on a cruise

it depends on what degree u do. But for exams most likely yes unless u do something very mathy

In my bachelors I had like maybe 3 exams in the whole degree?
no exams in my grad dip
Tbh I do really feel the rote learning does depend on the degree and level of usefulness of the learning concept in practice.
Having done nursing a lot of the bachelors stuff was practical type skills, whilst the dip is more arty farty project management, quality improvement etc..
I find assignments throughout uni tend to keep you engaged/make you review the content.

I hate school so much. I just wanna drop out and become an entrepreneur. Like I hate being bound by deadlines and stuff. Like I wanna do stuff in my own time and do it my own way. School is so draining

Guys opinion on school counsellors?

they foam at the mouth to tell everyone everything

 

[Sam Rowan]

don't know the song but would be willing to contribute some tips:
- https://wmich.edu/mus-theo/courses/keys.html - the effect of key signatures, use sparingly though because this particular philosophy was used centuries ago, however it can be good back-up evidence for why something feels a certain way
- upwards motion (chords, melody, etc) gives hope, downwards gives despair
- look at time signature (likely 4/4) - driving beat or lack thereof?
- word painting? e.g. does the music reflect the words? (a good one for english I feel)
- dissonance vs consonance

I'd be happy to help but I can't guarantee how often I'll reply

edit: okay I listened to the song, probably could talk about tone colour (accompaniment) and the texture thickening, do you get to analyse the music video as well, it could be good? the pulse strengthens about halfway...then the melody jumps up an octave, adds tension, climax...the sudden thinning of texture for the final verse thing

the coda is really interesting and different, definitely talk about the contrast, word painting in "pandemonium" due to the rapid switching of instruments, coda also disrupts thhe repetitive structure of the rest of the song

there's also tritones in the piano rearrangement but they're not as obvious in original (tritones are the "devil's chord", ultimate form of dissonance)

aaaaaaaah thank you! i was talking to the music teacher at my school, she thought it was a good song to analyse for english! as much as the music video is very cool (and analysable) my english teacher advised against it as the task is supposed to be more like an audiobook and not have any visuals.

in terms of what the music teacher said, she pointed out the last stanza (I wish I was me, whoever that is/I could just be and not give a shit/Hey, I'll be whatever makes you a fan/'Cause I don't know who the hell I am) being unaccompanied by the ‘mess’ of music, highlighting the reflection of the singers self identity and reflection of his human experiences. i can tie it into them loosing themselves to things such as technology (“am” is repeated in an electronic synth, cuts in melody to more electronic sounding instruments instead of an orchestra)
the bass line of the beginning is repetitive showing the begrudging of life and the last bit with all the different harmonies and melodies are them exploring the way their life could be. (which makes sense as the song is supposed to be a ‘table of contents’ of sorts for the rest of the album)

Why do I always have the crash out of the century in the most inconvenient times where I am left bed ridden and unable to do anything due to my severe emotional drainage

 

[Bendwhat?_over]

Do you need help?

Do you need help?

Well there’s not really much that can be done unless my mental health just miraculously improves

I think everyone in my family is having a bad day to cause the fighting and the negative attitude isn’t helping. I think I just need a break but there’s no time for a break so idk how it’s gonna go. Like idk how I’m gonna get through the year and pass year 12 if I crash out even before the hard studying happens

I understand. It's hard to find solace in such a time. My best advice is to retain good sleep, honestly... If you can afford to, it's very valuable...

Take it one day at a time - When things happen, they happen. Look at where you are now and find the best way to maneuver forwards.

Again, I understand if you do not want to go onwards. Time is a boat, and we must row.

That said, would it help to go to the cinemas or do some other activity on the weekend or after school after our exams?

Well I have been getting good sleep. I’m just emotionally drained. I’m just finding it hard to keep on going and it’s really difficult. But I’ll be fine after exams and in the hols. But I think maybe finding another outlet that I can spend more time on might help but idk

I like sowing and drawing. I have befriended local magpies as well. Lovely lot, when they're not aiming for my eyes.

 

[Bendwhat?_over]

I also like trains and pigeons... Ahm... Perhaps more than average folk would... And, I'll say, being able to witness things that bring me unreasonable levels of joy every day is very helpful.

I don't know. Pigeons are such gorgeous things.

Maybe I really should start vlogging. Maybe that will motivate me to do work. I really wanna start crotcheign. Also I do like drawing but I just find it hard to do it especially cause when school drains me it just puts me in an creative block

Lol pigeons are so goofy. Like the way they bop their heads are funny. Trains are cool too. Like the train system is interesting

I always draw during class... Perhaps a bad habit, but, ah it makes my notes much more interesting. I've been wanting to try crotchet too...

Yea usually I day dream in class. Maybe drawing will help calm me more and make my classes seem more interesting
