Bad Omens and The Death of Peace of Mind

Image
Hello friends and welcome to my quick online analysis of the extremely successful band, Bad Omens. If you're new here, welcome to my little internet corner where I like to talk about some of my favourite topics such as anime, music, movies, books and sometimes (trust me, I try not to), my life. Today's topic is the American metalcore band from Richmond, Virginia - Bad Omens - formed in 2015 by Noah Sebastian (frontman), Vincent Riquier (bassist) and Nicholas Ruffilo (guitarist).  The band was later joined by Nick Folio (drummer) and guitarist Joakim "Jolly" (and for some Portuguese fans during a concert in Italy, "#goodmorningjolly") Karlsson. Excuse my joke, but this one is for my Portuguese friends.

I've been gone for too long!

Hello friends, Long time no see. This feels extremely nostalgic, but I really miss using this platform and this blog in specific.  So much time, research, effort and love was put into this page and all of a sudden, I left it behind.  Life got in the way, I guess. My love for writing didn't end, at all. It's still here, present and alive.  That's why I decided to continue this adventure again.  Everything you like is alive and well in 2024. It's a bit ironic, trust me, after all the shitty years we've been having, my old blog (one of my proudest accomplishments) is coming back to life and I couldn't be more happy.  I hope I still have some readers or at least, that my content is relevant to the ones stumbling upon it.  I guess we'll have a new post soon. Not bad!  I still don't know exactly what I'm about to talk about, but I'll definitely figure it out.  As always, thank you so much for sticking around and if by any chance you're a new reader

Let's talk about change, baby!

Image
Hello everyone! I decided to start a new "series"on the blog. It's always nice to change and do things differently and lately I feel like I need it. I would like to start introducing new people on the blog, new music, new artists, or something that inspires me in general. Lately I feel very inspired by people with big dreams. I can surely say that my fiancé is one of those humans that light a certain sparkle in me and I really admire him. He has a natural talent for art, music, photography and poetry and I thought about sharing some of his work on the blog. The same goes for other artists (friends of mine) that have great content and are motivated to share it with the world. I feel a lack of empathy with the world in general. We constantly think about ourselves, we live in our lithe world and forget that others exist as well... and sometimes we can do something to help or even support others and grow as a person. Like I said before in an old

Why I've been gone

Hello guys, long time no see! I feel like I've been gone for at least a decade and I apologize. I've been thinking about coming back and do an update of the content and the design of the blog. I don't have much time at the moment due to work and life in general, but I want to do this. I still haven't figured what I want to write about, for the moment. I still love anime and movies, of course, but I don't want to feel trapped in a specific theme. I have evolved as a person and I believe you did too. That's why I feel that I can change a bit my topics and adapt them to my current day-to-day life. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to comment or send me an email and I'll take them into consideration. I love to talk to you and it really make s me happy every time I receive some feedback from you. You can keep up with me through my social media. All the links are listed at the top of the page! Thank you so much

The future of design

Image
This blog post is a part of Design Blogger Competition organized by  CGTrader . Hello everyone! How are you doing lately? Is everything okay?  This week's post is going to be a little bit different. I am going to talk about the future of graphic design. This is all based on some research and also my personal opinion, so if you don't agree with it, it's fine, we all have different visions of the world. 😋 Let's get started! The main question here is: are you ready for the future?  I'm not a design expert but I do love to see the different variations of the world we live in.  These different variations that I'm talking about here definitely change our society and the rate and speed of that change makes your head turn.  I will try to predict the future of graphic design by analyzing its evolution through the years: from the craziness to the slimmest technologies offered to us today. 1. Phones and TV's When I was a kid, during th

Anthem Film Festival

  Hello my beautiful people! I hope you're having an amazing week so far. A few days ago I was informed by  Vegas.com  about the Anthem Film Festival making an appearance in Vegas this month. With that being said, what I will do, is write about my passion for movies and film, and also give some tips and suggestions to the ones attending the  festival . First of all, I want to thank Vegas From The Inside for contacting me. I was not expecting such a thing and I will definitely enjoy writing this post! Let's get started then! My love for movies and film in general started way back when I was little. I've always been a dreamer and had tons of imagination. And when I started understanding things around me and have a different perception of the world, and see that it was possible to create a "parallel universe" with a story that most times doesn't correspond to reality, my world was changing bit by bit. My parents and family in general share the same love and
