someone put the vhs in for me at age five and it got stuck in my memory for life. scout finch was a character i heavily related to, and I got so lost in the story that I easily could play the movie in my head when I was younger. Also the plot, the music, the vibe of childhood, the twists— amazing. couldn’t ask for a better Peck film.

my first memory is perching on the couch arm in my childhood house and watching the quest for camelot movie when i was about 4 years old. idk why this is so specifically ingrained in my head, but i guess it stuck, because now i have a minor in medieval & renaissance studies!

When I was seven, an 80s movie aired on TV, and I watched it until my mom turned it off at bedtime. I cried, wanting to see the rest, but she refused, and I eventually fell asleep. The next day, I couldn’t remember the movie’s name, so I never finished it—until today. It aired again, and the experience was surreal; I remembered every detail and finally saw the ending.

I wish I knew for sure, but making anything helps with the static of not knowing who you are or what you’re doing. a peach pie from scratch. An impromptu jam session with aby instrument, even if it’s just your voice. A quick sketch outside. A photograph. A little stupid air clay sculpture. just make things, that’s why we’re here.

I was a major Starkid fan back in the day, and when video call lessons were affordable, I took one from Jeff Blim, one of the songwriters and actors of the company. To me, Jeff was exactly the mixture of chaotic and talented that I wanted to be. outside of his characters though, he’s actually a really chill teacher. The most important thing I took from that was how to be a character no matter my personal emotional state, which I still use today.
I guess sometimes we forget the people we idolize are also just people, and sometimes that sucks, and other times that changes the course of your life. This was one of the life changing times.
