Giacomo Puccini, Madama Butterfly.


       This kind of opera is different from what was displayed played in the animated version of “Madama Butterfly”. It wasn’t as appealing to me, it was still enjoyable just not as much as I enjoyed the animated video. I feel like Opera is for older, more seasoned folks and I’m nowhere near that. If this was played or acted out in a theatre today, I think a lot of people would freak over it in a great way. They are awesome singers.

        The acting was a little tricky and different but that is expected because people have gotten a lot better at acting over time. There is an expected audience for everything, but I doubt I’m a part of that audience for now, unfortunately. Maybe when I am older it will be more appealing to me. I do find it incredibly amazing that people can sing like that and extend their voices to such great heights. I’m a singer myself so I know how unbelievably tough it is to even be able to get to half of that range.

Raul Cuero

       In the interview with Raul Cuero, he states multiple times that he was discriminated against and faced a lot of adversities in his life. At one point, he also stated that he felt like he had no value once he stepped off the basketball court. With all these things he went through and all these thoughts, he made the choice to overcome them and work 10x harder because he wanted to be important off the basketball court some day. He wanted to be celebrated and used all of what we may consider as "negative' to aim higher and work harder.        This interview with Raul Cuero speaks on topics that I believe are still prevalent today and may be relatable to some of today's youth. For instance, students who get recruited to D1 schools for various sports are only nurtured in those sports with little consideration given to their success in the classroom. While some schools do a great job with balancing them out, several universities focus more on sp...

Exceptional grid art

This is my grid art, it is a rose and I specifically picked a rose because my name is Blossom. I actually thought this was fun and interesting, I have never done anything like this and I enjoyed it. Even though it seemed a little confusing at first when I started it, I got the hang of it. I look forward to creating more art in the future!

What if the world were a simulation?

This is an odd question. What if or is the world a simulation?? I don't think the world is a simulation at all. I think we control our own movements and behavior and this all isn't some kind of game. Now if the world were a simulation, that'd be very creepy in my opinion. The idea of someone/something controlling me and dictating my every move doesn't sit right with me. I understand all the robots and new technologies arising but it still isn't factual to believe that the world is simulated. In the future, we as humans may be overthrown by robots and new technology that WE have created. I think that we have gone so deep in this thing called technology that we have to keep going, there's no going back now.
