The Tech Thieves!

 A couple weeks ago, I was looking for music that sounded like it could be part of a villain's soundtrack. (I need inspiration, folks! My villains feel 2D!) After hours of endless jams, I stumbled upon The Tech Thieves. Yes, their name sounds like they're a cyber gang but all they steal is your attention.

Quick background: The Tech Thieves are a Canadian duo who are on the radar of Big Time artists like Martin Garrix and The Chainsmokers. Their genre is Dance/Electronic. There is very little about them online so this will have to do, OK?


If I had to use one word to describe their sound, it would be Atmospheric. Their music sets the scene, the mood, and sometimes even the dialogue. I feel like you could use the music in a movie or tv show perfectly. Also, let me just put it out there that I want someone to put together some choreography for some of these songs. It would be so beautiful.

Below are a few of my favorites from them.





Feel free to have a jam session while listening to them. If I've made you a fan or you already were one, feel free to leave a message below.

Why is it always math?!?!

 I'm going to be honest. Math gives me anxiety. I am currently helping one of the sibs with their math. While I know the answers, I feel worried that I might not remember properly how certain methods work. I only get this way with math.

It's something of a bummer, really. I feel like I can find a footing in almost any subject except math. I try my best to avoid advanced mathematics because I get so nervous I begin to think I might vomit and my mind goes blank. 

There are so many cool things out there that one can do if you are comfortable with math. Since I'm not, I sometimes feel a bit depressed out it. But that is life, right?

I hate colds!

 Well, as you might have guessed by the title, the sibs and I caught a cold. I hate feeling sick. I feel like it's a betrayal of my body. I mean, immune system, you had one job! 

So, we have been doing things at a slower pace these past few days. Thankfully, we seem to be almost out the woods and back to our regular selves. Yay!

Before I go, here's a quick book recommendation. If you like hockey and are looking for a sweet and faith filled read, check out Carolyn Miller's Original Six series. I am midway through book three. Each book can be read as a standalone but they are interconnected. 

If you've read them before and enjoyed it, feel free to leave a message below. Or just simply say hi.

When Sirens go off in the early morning.........

 A couple of days ago, in the wee hours of the morning, the tornado sirens started blaring. Now I had just started to feel sleepy (insomnia wasn't too bad that night) and I had my headphones on while playing some classical music. My mom came to my room and was like "Don't you hear the sirens?!?" 

Long story short, we dragged the all the half awake children to the basement where they proceeded to complain about their disturbed sleep. Lb2 turned our radio to a local station to get an update and while we waited for the NWS to break in (which it never did), I started dancing in the basement to stay awake. You see our basement floods sometimes and I had no intention of laying on the floor and falling asleep. Thing is I gave all the good dozing spots to my sibs so only the floor was left.

Found out I don't dance half bad when I'm sleep deprived. LB2 said it's probably because I'm too tired to be self-conscious. I guess that's good to know. Not sure how that will be a help to me though.....

Anyway, we are all fine. It was a brief scare and now I don't feel comfortable listening to music at night. I mean, what if it happens again? If you understand this new paranoia I've unlocked, feel free to leave a message below.
