baby started uni today

My college let me on to the second year of my A-levels despite my pitifully low grades but told me that if I don't improve by October, they'll kick me out. By "improve", I mean write about twice as much in my class essays which for some reason is practically impossible for me. I don't know what it is but no matter how hard I try, I always fail in that regard. I think it's because I'm just not into writing essays unless it's something I'm extremely passionate about and if my heart's not in it, I'm not going to perform well (not to mention they always tell me to write slowly because of my poor handwriting). What is it about that that the education system don't understand? If someone doesn't like it, they ain't gonna do well and we should stop "pushing" them to do well in their subjects (most of which are pointless) and start "encouraging" them to do the things they like and give them a broader subject range from an earlier age. A very cynical part of me hopes they'll kick me out because I just don't want to do it anymore, especially media because that involves doing creative projects by a deadline and sharing them with people which just makes me anxious as fuck. I'm going to try because I wouldn't feel right if I didn't but I almost want to fail. Getting up before 8am doesn't help either because I have insomnia during the night and it just makes me feel like a ragdoll until I can get home and nap for a few hours. I think the only reason I don't just drop out, get a job that suits me and return to my education when I feel a bit more motivated is because I know my family will be disappointed in me if I do that. I know my brother dropped out but his reason was that his course wasn't actually teaching him anything he didn't already know, not "I don't fucking like it". I also know it's technically my choice and I'm normally quite confident when it comes to doing the things I want if I have the option but I just feel kinda restricted right now. My only real motivation to carry on is knowing that the only reason I got held back a year in high school and have had to drag myself through this slog for a year more than I'd like is that my mother took me out of education for a year when I was fifteen so I guess it's largely not my fault (I'd also wager that my terrible sleeping patterns back then are what brought on my insomnia to this day). My grandma even told me today that if she were me, she'd "fuckin' do it just to spite the bitch" (in those exact words, love you grandma x) but is that really right? Like dgmw that was a kick-ass thing to say but would it really be right for me to do something I don't want to do just to spite someone who'll never know about it anyways? I really would like to prove my mother wrong because she thought I was the biggest idiot on the planet but I'm never going to see her again - hell, she doesn't know I'm even at college - so what's even the point? Godfuckit.

Solid song

Also, the fuck kind of name is Bataar?! I know many VK bands have dumbass names but this one just makes me laugh

the best track from this entire album cycle is still that one bonus demo track that didnt even make the cut

Heya everybody! So a week or so ago, I promised I was in the works of something special for the site, and here it is! Okay, so I associate with a good amount of guys who were active in the visual kei scene. Most of them retired, some of them are still active. So, I decided to reach out to figure out what their top 5 visual kei bands were! I've gotten several responses, so I thought I'd share them with you all, since maybe some of you would be interested, especially those who are super hardcore into old school kei like I am. Enjoy!

Idk if he has or ever will send copyright strikes on peoples channels but I guess just a headsup in case for folks if they got channels with dimlims music uploaded on it

👁👃👁 👄 -ヘヴェンズノベル- Also, they made the drummer cover his chin. Maybe just don't do up-skirt shots???

Drあのん Anon (ex 絶望サアカス Zetsubou Circus ñ, マゼルナキケン。Mazeruna kiken)

...is way more better than most of the vk newbie vocalists, no need to discuss

bitch done retired lmao

Not knowing anything about the educational system in the UK but from your post it doesn't sound any different from Germany's regarding not caring about individual people but just wanting to get everyone out the same. As if people were like that ... Individualism doesn't count at all. Sad but true. In my opinion that's part of the increasing numbers of people suffering from depression, burn-out and a lot more. Everyone shall be as the rest, the bigger part not even be too educated to think for themselves but just follow crap some others came up with. Don't question anything just function. And be able to replace somehow who got sorted out.

This doesn't look like Grimoire, but yeah

Why's it written in the Final Fantasy font? Is this just gonna be a cheap knock-off of the Phantom Train theme from FFVI?

Cheodara by Dimlim lol. Thought it was just going to be another album by a run-of-the-mill vk band trying to be heavy. Boy was i wrong. This album filled the gap that TIW made.

For me it's Monochrome by Umbrella. When I first listened to it I didn't really like Yui's vocals and couldn't hear past the production value, so I never gave it a real chance. I didn't listen to it again until a couple years later after they released Kinematograph, and I was kicking myself over how much I missed out on. And this isn't really an album, but almost everything Alice Nine did in 2004/2005. I was never much of an Alice Nine fan so I never bothered to really listen to their early stuff, but I loved it once I actually did. The vocals aren't particularly good and the instruments could use work, they were an immature band for sure, but there's a big sense of genuine emotion/desire that I get from those songs that I simply just don't feel in their later works.

I tried listening to Infitium In is entirety on my way back home today. And i couldn’t help but skip through the entire album. I’m really fucking disappointed cuz I never thought I’d do that for any Kyo related project. The entire thing was them trying really hard to be so be musically abstract, which worked against them. Also after judging their albums and Mini’s it’s clear that this band does better with a shorter track list. ANIMA and VITIUM show that they can still be creative but it sounds more tight and cohesive. Immortalis is less guilty of this easily making it the more listenable album of the three. ADORATIO’s filler is at least combated by at least 2 BALLING tracks (I’ll edit later with em). But INFITIUM, I legit can’t find any stand out tracks. I guess this is what happens when you have a line up of “prestigious” musicians. And y’all don’t know what to do with yourselves.

I wonder if Kisaki ever watches their PVs and thinks "damn.....that's what I meant to do"

their new maxi-single (title not yet finalized) will be released at 2019/12/10 (2 types, 1650yen each)

support Dr.剣介(Kensuke) has officially joined at 2019/08/01. New Look: New song "Far beyond the Images"

Damn, do they ever stop? Are you okay?

Okay so I talked shit about FLCL Alternative but it wasn't that bad. It redeemed itself by the second episode and the rest was p good. Progressive though? Progressive is actual trash all the way through, I do not recommend.

Their first single 『星にネがいを。』(Hoshi ni negai.) is available since today via Itunes. (1000 yen) Tracklist : 1. 星にネがいを。(Hoshi ni negai.) 2. 復讐(Fukushû) 3. 怨返し(Ongaeshi) 4. 嘘つき(usotsuki)
