heyyyyy!! I'm done with fall quarter, so I figured I'd pop back in here and give a brief update on what has been going on. I finished Mace Windu: The Glass Abyss and liked it, but not enough to write a review cause tbh I don't really even remember what happened in the book. But I did write a fun final paper in one of my classes that I'm proud enough to share, so that can be found here as well as in the writing tab. It's basically about finding one's swing which is a heavy-handed metaphor for trying to live the good life. I didn't initially want to write anything relating to music, but my professor thought that, as a trans musician, using music as a metaphor would be more personal and me-centric, which I don't disagree with. Ultimately I think it turned out good, though I probably should've given it a day or so because I noticed some typos lol. I was hella tired when I finished the paper, and I wrote it all in one day, so forgive anything that seems a little incoherent. It may be incoherent for another reason too, as we (obviously) had to reference texts from our class materials. I think it's comprehensible enough to the outside perspective, but sorry if it's not!

The star wars graphs that I mentioned in the last blogpost are on the way, I just have some cleaning up to do, as well as some formatting. It may well be a pdf if I can't find a way to make it any easier to read, but we'll have to see I suppose. I should add that I've had a lot of things on the mind, so there may be some additional short writing pieces headed your way. They'll be less formal than the above theory paper since they won't be for a class, but I guess writing anything is a good creative workout. Okay, I hope you enjoy and stay tuned!
