Kind of Lucid dream and three other things (I remember them this time)

Sorry to bother you with more music stuff, and don't worry, you'll get more of it next week. Hope you don't get sick of it. You should only have to hold on one more week, and then you'll have a nice break from it. I'm putting the 'three other things' first with the lucid dream thing after to give you something other than music between.

1. This is more of what I think the new logo will be. In this one, the blue is actually in the position I think it will be. The only difference will be that the white lines and circle will be black. (and obviously the background won't be trees and whatever. It will just by the symbol part)

2. Half Alive (don't know how to put a dot in the middle) is really good. They only have three songs out right now, so go check them out. They remind one of twenty one pilots, which is a good thing (obviously). Some people are concerned the Clique (The Clique is what super twenty one pilots fans call themselves (I lowkey call myself a Clique member (in fact, I know I know enough to be fully considered one), but sometimes I don't want to be associated with them)) will backlash due to their similarities between Half Alive and twenty one pilots (there are many similarities, not just in the music style), but overall the response from the Clique seems good, which is good. (They would, allegedly, get backlash because it would seem like they are just trying to copy twenty one pilots. Thought I would clear that up in case you were confused)

3. I recently "took a step back", so to speak, and I've realized how good of an album Vessel is. Seriously, it has Ode to Sleep, Trees, Migraine, Fake You Out, Guns for Hands, Car Radio, and Holding on to You?! I hold all those songs in basically the highest regard. Semi-Automatic, Screen, The Run and Go are also very solid. House of Gold is beautiful (even though... meh, I'll explain next post), and Truce is spot on. The album is just really, really good. 

So, the thing that was supposed to be the main topic of my post before the three things took more space than I thought they would, was about a dream I had recently. It was weird because during the dream in several occasions myself mentioned how he was in a dream. Yet, consciously, I didn't know. I had no control over my actions, and me, myself, didn't realize it was a dream until I woke up. Yet the character the quote on quote portrayed me knew he was in a dream. It was as if he ('I' could also be used here, but, as I mentioned, I didn't have any form of control over this character. Therefore, I'm going to act as if he is a different person than I even if he acted and looked like I did) was breaking the fourth wall.

For example, at one point he noticed how one of my friends was much shorter than he actually was in real life. He thought/said out loud how he should tell that person in real life that he is portrayed as decently short in my dreams. Then, for a second, I guess he forgot he was in a dream because he turned to the friend and was about to tell him that he was short(er) in dreams than in real life. He stopped himself before he said anything, and reminded himself that he was in a dream.
Later, he saw one of my (and I guess his, since we are technically the same person) old teachers. He's like "Hey! I know you!", you know, that sorta thing. Then he's like, "Wait, why am I talking to you, I'm in a dream."

I don't know, it was weird. Especially since, even though the character that is me seemed to know that he was in a dream, I had no knowledge of it, and no control over what was happening whatsoever.

Excited to be more consistent about these blog posts! Have a lot of ideas, and a lot of time that I want to do something that makes me feel productive. Only a six day space? Not even a full week? I know, crazy.

Album Theories and two other things

Ok, so, according to rumor twenty one pilots has something happening tomorrow. Originally it was going to be a new album, but a new album would have had pre-orders etc., so it won't be that (unless they randomly drop it, in which case... craziness will ensue). Some people think it's going to be a single or something idk. Anyway, I'm writing and posting this today that way whatever happens tomorrow won't mess up this post (for example if the new album were announced with info (which is actually what I think it will be, if it's anything at all). This way, my predictions/talk won't be useless since the info hasn't come out yet (if that makes any sense).
So, the other rumor that has been going around is that the new album by twenty one pilots is going to called "Echo" or "Echoes". Something to that effect.
With this rumor and other random info and hints as our basis, we can start making speculations. I don't take full credit for any of these ideas. Some of them are slightly different than other peoples, but overall they come from other people's ideas.
1. The main color will be blue (instead of red, like in the Blurryface)
2. The album will focus on the defeat of Blurryface (although the theory that it will deal with Josh's quote on quote "Blurryface" is intriguing (I definitely don't think it's going to be that though))
3. Some lyrics will talk about their new found fame, and how it has affected them
4. Josh Dun will have more backing vocals (he's only had like 2 or 3, I think that this new album will double or triple that number). I do not think he will have any direct singing or be a lead singer for any of the songs (even though that would be super crazy awesome). If he does it will be for 2 songs max. (Granted, if the album is about Josh's "Blurryface" (which, I'll state again, I definitely do not think it will be) it would make a lot of sense for him to do a lot of direct singing)
5. The new symbol will be the white/blue version of this gif. However, I don't think the blue will be the slanted line. I think it will be the straight line with the slanted line black instead (I think that makes sense).




6. There will be at least 1 No Phun Intended song remake. As mentioned in other places, one will most likely be Whisper. I'm predicting between 2-3 remakes.
These remakes are going to do crazy things to song analysis as they will have different meanings depending on which album you take them from. Other remakes have the same meaning as their originally, but now, since it would deal with the defeat of Blurryface, it would put the lyrics in a different light.
7. One or two Regional at Best remakes? I don't actually think this is going to happen, I'm just putting it here because it would be cool.
8. "Echoes" will be an overall solid album that will be many people's favorite album by twenty one pilots. However, for me, it will be slightly behind Vessel (Suppose I should tell you how I ranked all the albums: 1. Regional at Best 2. Vessel 3. Blurryface 4. Self-Titled). Slightly behind Vessel, it will be close, but the difference will exist.
9. Doesn't quite apply to "Echoes", but close enough: The album that will be after "Echoes" is going to be, like, the best album ever created. For realz, it will be just that good. I'm probably getting my self too hyped over an album that is 4-5 years away, but I have strong suspensions that it will live up to the hype I'm creating.
10. The album that will be after "Echoes" will go back to the original logo (but perhaps with the thin lines we see in the above logo? Idk, it's too far away to think more about it):


11. Predicting semi-random thing that just feels right: There will be exactly 13 songs.
12. "Echoes" will not be a character, at least not in the same vein as Blurryface was. I think it will be a force of some form. It will be ok/proper to ask "What/who is/are the Echoes?". Which is different than Blurryface, since the proper question there is "Who is Blurryface?", and never "What is Blurryface?" or "What is a Blurryface?" (seriously, never do that).
13. The "Echoes" will have part to deal with the support Tyler gets, and perhaps has something to deal with the fans (specifically the fans singing back to him (making "Echoes" make kinda sense))
14. The album will show traces of Blurryface. In some way show that he is always there, never truly defeated, but that doesn't mean all is lost etc.

Yep, those are my album theories/predictions. On to the 'two other things'.
1. I forget what my first thing was.
2. If you could do me a favor, look up Snake Pass for the Nintendo Switch, and report back to me if you think it's worth getting. E-mail or otherwise. It would be really nice.

Night Visions

Ok, I just want every one to realize that Night Visions (deluxe or other) is one of the best modern albums ever. Just so every one is aware. (I'll talk about twenty one pilots later. So don't go around thinking I'm converted)

Yeah, boiiiiiiii

 

Now why am I writing this instead of playing more Breath of the Wild? Cause, you know, Finals week and stuff, but, man, I really want to play some more.

Humble Bundle, Things Galore

I haven’t posted in awhile. I have had tons of stuff (still do, for that matter).

Did my AP exam for psychology. Feel as though I did pretty well. I’m pretty sure I got a 4 or a 5, just not sure which one. AP exam for English is coming up on Wednesday next week. The Reading End of Course Exam and the Writing EOC exam are the two days before it, so I’m going to have a lot of English next week.

Rough Draft of our paper in AP English is due next Thursday.

Still have yet to Conference with Mr. Nelson for our paper that was supposed to be due at the end of last quarter. I’m not sure if he’s forgotten about me or what, so I’m going to go talk to him sometime in the very near future.

Have an annoying H. Chem project for a Final instead of a normal final.

AP psych feels over since we’ve taken the AP exam, but we still actually have stuff to do.

Anyway, in more exciting news, got the Brandon Sanderson Humble Bundle thingy. Payed/Donated/Whatever you want to call it $15.01. Only one cent over the minimum to get all the things, cause I’m a poor High School student that is going to get a Switch sometime.

I finished White Sand pretty quickly. It was decent.

I’m trying to get the Graphic Audio things onto my phone, so I can listen to it easier, but am having very little success.

Track is basically over. Tomorrow is the last ‘official’ practice that I actually have to go to. Still debating on whether I’m going to go next week. Not going on Monday due to Tennis practice, but might go the other days.

School is wrapping up. Not sure what I’m going to do with my life when it is over. Probably going to hang out with friends this summer than I have any other.

Need to do good on my English Final to keep my semester grade at an ‘A’, but due to some lame people, we’re not doing an official final, instead it’s just a vocab test and a paper. Last time I got an 89% on the final, so it would have been nice just to have a normal one, but we’ll see how I do on this paper. I really don’t like it. Scared I might get a ‘B’ in the class. It would be the first ‘B’ for a class I would have ever received. I’ve only ever gotten ‘A’s, so this is a little weird.
