Today, as we start the beginning of the new era, I decided I wanted to start a new project. Ultimately that means me writing more. Like many other people, especially people living in the United States, I am frightened, anxious, and want to do something. While I’m going to try to be more active politically and financially, however I can, I also want to use my writing.<\/p>\n
Throughout the past nine, ten years of my life, when things are difficult I’ve turned to Japanese idol music. In many ways it’s been a crutch that has helped me get through loss, loneliness, anxiety and a thousand other things that I have dealt with. So, through the next four difficult years, my goal is to write about a song a day that I find meaningful, has impacted me in one way or another, or I just simply like. Honestly, I think this will mostly be that last category. Yet, for everything Jpop is, a lot of the time it’s cheery, upbeat, and has made me feel better, so if you like this music maybe give my song a day a listen and maybe it will help you too.<\/p>\n
