anatomy of a robot

I feel like the "great" Christopher Columbus. Minus the fact that my discovery was actually what I was searching for opposed to good old Chris who just sailed to a random ass continent. Today I discovered this underground korean band called Dear Cloud. I was somewhat skeptical, however, their music really makes me feel like I'm floating above the clouds. The smooth, peaceful melodies really put my mind and body to rest.
얼음요새 - 디어 클라우드
"the ice fortress of which i walk upon
thankfully made me forget
grasping the path of whom i become
being held by your warmth
this is the winter path i chose

i was in the center of winter
letting courage take my place
your beauty is cruel
you left my eternal love for you
coldly pushing me away
...
the words i can't speak
when my heart is sad"
i think everyone can relate to those words whether they like it or not. that congested feeling that you can't escape because of the burden of your emotions. why can't we all be robots? i like robots. they're fun to draw. really, if we were all robots we would not have to suffer through regular human hardships. no love, no war, just complex simplicity if that makes any sense. the makings of a robot are complex, but the intent of a robot is simple. of course there are also negative results from everyone being a robot. robots need love too. naturally this thought of mine is completely irrational and i'm digressing from the real point of this blog.

Dear Cloud, i appreciate your music. and i also appreciate that your music inspires me to think about robots.

I used to think that it might be cool to be a robot. But I realize now that it wouldn't be cool.

Something up?

And what's up? How's school and work?
