BTW, gotten back into making music.

Been producing atleast 3 new tracks a week now and just releasing them on bandcamp.
I've actually gained alot of followers from doing this.

Plus I'm moving into a brand new phat Brooklyn apartment... :blessed:

life could not be better at this point.

So nearly 5 months into the year - it's not been too bad.

Got myself a nice little job working for a betting company. Surprisingly very intense - the Gambling Industry is crazy regulated, but it's good because it's taught me to be far more organized and efficient, which is exactly why I took the job in the first place - plus I have the opportunity to manage. In the last few years I've become more of an Anarcho-syndicalist in my personal politics but I'm a willing practitioner of capitalism because.....well, you have to be. The most important thing I've learned is that to gain something, you have to be willing to leverage something. Leverage is the key to success in capitalism. With this job, I'm leveraging my time, but I made sure I was getting back more than I was leveraging - so while I have less time to pursue personal interests, I have more money, a potentially stronger CV, and I have also gained previous attributes that due to my disabilities I did not have, and I can take those anywhere. It's still a work in progress but I'm a lot more organized than I used to be.

I use the job to also fund my piano lessons, which are going very well. My grade 8 exam is next year, and once I have that, then I can use that to either go back to university or go straight to teaching, which is meant to be the gateway for me to make better money doing something I actually like doing.

Still long way to go. Have to go back to gym, continue studying & mastering my main instrument. I just ordered a electro-acoustic guitar from ebay so I can learn that. Next step is a bass guitar, which I can already play a little bit. Got some video editing software so gonna figure that out, maybe make a youtube channel if I got time.
