Just when I thought the work was all done, someone handed me a conga and asked me to join the pit orchestra. I had very little involvement music wise during this production.
Sitting behind the pit to hear the music more than the singers. I'm invested because I was originally playing drum set, but I decided to help with ads and content creation.Just before I thought the final show was finished, one of the percussionists came over to hand me a conga for the bows. My mood was immediately changed, and I had so much fun.

It's incredibly honorable and exciting to know that we're doing what we love and supporting a great cause. The dreams and planning made were all worth it, thank you VRD for all you do and more.

Good suggestion! Only unfortunate bit is that I'll want to add meat.

What a great weekend full of music. I just wish there was an extra 8 hours in the day for sleeping.

That's a good set of questions. I'd say I love it only because they're overpaying me to do simple tasks. I may be pushing my luck and jinxing it.

I started loving work and became extremely rusty at expressing myself through music. I'm sure there's a balance between loving them both.

Amazing job on all fronts, I'm saddened with my absence but it quickly subsides with all the stories and experiences flooding in from friends and coworkers alike in and outside of the VRD circle. I am proud of every single one of you who attended, staffed, hung out, and or passed by.

No words can describe how I feel about the event this year, Phenomenal from start to finish. Even If I wasn't there to experience it first hand, there were many waves of excitement that bursted from friends and coworkers alike inside and outside of that circle. Hats off to all of you for everything!

May is the month of class struggle. I'm working on another #VRChat political watch to host this month. To raise our working class consciousness. Here is a teasing clip 😊

At the end of it all, I just want more information on how and why. Maybe I'm not mature enough to comprehend it all or maybe it's too cryptic for me to understand but it shouldn't be hidden. The island's already far from many things as it is.

The entire notion and movement towards establishing a stronger military presence over in the Marianas doesn't really sit well with me and the events that came forward have made my fellow Chamorro brothers and sisters seek solitude elsewhere. My only question is . . . where can I take a stand?

Optnihilist @optnihilist.bsky.social · 31/03/2025
There was a post made on my island's local News network about a protesting group, it really got me interested in the views this small island holds for those in the mainland USA and what they really meant by "Promoting peace through strength". No positives come to my mind but why is it quiet?

How dare you temp me with these damned features?! You guys raised the roof 4 quarters of an inch higher than usual. Asides from that, I'm just excited to see all the inspiring and / or meme-filled content that'll come about.

What a month, this would now be my 7th time helping manage a music festival. The difficult part is constantly being in a new department every time. The redeeming aspect is constantly meeting with international artists and playing difficult pieces. Oh, what a time to be alive.

The days grow long, and the nights are ever so filled with thoughts. I've traversed for eons and have endured complexities so personally trivial and testing. However, never have I ever encountered such a smug comment in my existence. I will remember this.

From the loud days, social events, and busy nights. There's always been music to fit the mood. These two moments reminded me of "Jupiter Hymn from The Planets" by Gustav Holst. Such a grand emotion to be had looking back at your work or just contemplating under the night sky.

A true test of musicianship. Having a long improv session with 5 other incredibly talented musicians was not on my bingo list for this year. It was incredibly insightful to know where I lacked and where I excelled. There's always something new to learn.

It's been a while since I've just sat down and enjoyed company. Never a dull day about but it's nice to have nothing to do in between bouts of work.

I've been worn out quite a bit from music. I love the smiles and the ideas that are shared amongst the different age and ethnic groups, but darn is it hard to keep it going without a break. Makes me wonder whether making it more than a hobby was wise and worthwhile. There's only one way to know.

It's no surprise that self doubt is something that regularly plagues my mind, the only important part is that I'm trying to get over it. Whether it's my competence as a musician or photographer, all that matter is that I'm trying my best.

The Australian International Music Festival was one of the best memories that I still recall to this day. Being able to play in places such as the Opera House and Townhall were things I never would've dreamed of.
