How long is the coastline of Britain?
Well.. how big is your ruler? Are you measuring miles, yards, feet, inches, millimeters, Angstroms.. atomic lengths? Quark separations? As you start shoving your “ruler” into asymptotically smaller nooks and crannies, you’ll find that there will always be another point to measure and quantify.. that is, the measured length...

late night musings + first world problems + navier stokes statement of my life
I can’t write anymore. I discovered this today; pushing out first drafts is wooden and painful, a process of constantly asking: “Am I done yet?”
It’s the only damn time that what I write will matter, the only thing I have to say for myself after 17 years of existence, and all the pipes are...

Sometimes I forgo sleep because I’m looking for that quiet corner of the night - that blur between early morning and late night, when it’s just my solitary desk light illuminating my adventures. My music echoes all the more loudly through the silence and the sounds of my keyboard are crisp, clear, sharp. I find some peace in solitude.
