Unpredictable delays

Today, on the way to Ongaku Overdrive, a refueling plane crashed in to my plane.
Luckily no one was injured, but it has me stuck at the airport for around 9 hours.

I feel like most people would be pretty upset about this. Granted, it's probably because most of the other passengers were, but since we were able to find another flight for me, I'm using it as a chance to look for interesting things at the airport that I normally would have time to do.

Let's see how stir crazy I get after 9 hours.

Drinkable Liquids

Ha ha, all of my posts as of late have been about food. I swear I don't spend all of my time eating.
.....probably. (@´_`@)

I generally consume a lot more liquids than I do solids. (´ω`♡%)

I often have coffee, water, juice, and sometimes a light soup for breakfast. One of my hobbies is collecting cute mugs, but I definitely put them to use.

I'm not a coffee snob by any means, but I really do enjoy my coffee. I know I should probably switch to tea, but I'd miss my bitter daily brew too much! ≧(´▽`)≦

Yogurt time

Lately the weather has been nice, so I've been getting frozen yogurt more often ✿♥‿♥✿

It's interesting to look back on the log of various yogurt cups that I've made. It's like seeing a snapshot of what I felt like at the time. 

Writing about it has made me want to go get some. It is pretty sunny outside today...  (๑・ω-)~♥”

I love Curry~

Today I had some mango curry  °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

I'm not very adventurous when it comes to new restaurants, but I'm glad that a few of my friends felt like trying out this new Indian place by my house.  ♪(´ε` )

I think I've become a lot more cautious as I've gotten older.
But I love having reminders like this to show me that being adventurous at times have great rewards. (●´ω`●)ゞ

We just have to be prepared to be hurt in the process.

You may or may not have noticed.

But there are updates lurking around the site!

We're also in the midst of adding new merch to our Bandcamp, so keep an eye out!

In other news, who has noticed that our new album comes with original art for each song? 
We've had a few requests to turn them in to wallpapers, so we'll be doing a poll soon to see which ones I do first!

Let's Talk

I believe that the world is fundamentally a terrible place filled with terrible people.

I think that humans evolved to be the most terrible things in a terrible world. And we are slowly coming to grips with the fact that we, as a species, are no longer comfortable with being terrible monsters.

And while you might feel like horrible person who doesn't do nearly the amount of nice things that you could be doing, remember this.

Every time you do some thing nice, something at least partially selfless, you are fighting generations of breeding, years of personal baggage, and the deep down survival tactics that tell you that you must come out on top at all costs.

When you try to make someone else's existence a more wonderful thing, you have managed to conquer your demons, break through your barricades, and show what it is to be human.

People aren't good because we are made to be good.
Whatever goodness that is born of us is because we struggle against ourselves to carve out something beautiful in this terrible world.

MECHA RAI

I had a few friends comment about the song art covers I've been making, mostly about how very few of them were robots.

I've been biting my tongue about this, but it was because our Kickstarter Exclusive cover was actually a giant robot Rai. ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ)

For those of you who've been paying attention to our fb posts, you'll notice that I've been posting song art for each of our new songs for Cor Leonis. 

People who know me know that many of my songs are little stories. 
Well just between you and me, they're all connected. (´ω`★)

Cor Leonis

Our New album is out!

http://raikamishiro.bandcamp.com/album/cor-leonis

A lot of people have asked me what this album is about.

It's about space, in many senses of the word.

Space, the final frontier, that represents unknown adventures and discoveries that await us.

Space, as the distance between people and the feelings that fill the void between.

Space, as the wondrous thing look up at in the night sky, and connect random dots in to glorious constellations.

Space that gets a little bit smaller smaller when you see what's in my heart.
