Aufsteigende Flügel is German for "Soaring Wings", a beautiful piano piece composed by Masashi Hamauzu. It is a retreat, a place for me to speak my mind, my thoughts,
and my ideas. I bid you all welcome and please, enjoy your stay while you can.
In case you're wondering, the song you hear playing in the background is called Memories, composed and performed by Kow Otani for the best PS2 game of all time, Shadow of the Colossus.
This was one of the many unused tracks from the game, so I thought I might do it justice playing this lovely track here. It may take a while to load, but please pause it and give it a good listen.
Otani makes good music (unfortunately, this is the only one I know of), and this is one of them. Enjoy!

I keep having this mentality in my mind. Well, call it a form of ego, but it drives me to do things beyond my limits. Often, it tends to worry others, but I see it as a path for me to achieve what I want. Let it be risky, let it be perilous, let it be fatal.
Come what may, I will make it through!
Ah well, today's post won't be focusing on such things. Let's talk about the mind and its power.
We all know how powerful the brain works and how fast it is able to process informations of all sorts. And, like what most robots can't do, we can think about everything all at once. One moment we're thinking about eating that cupcake, and the next, we might be wondering when the next train will be coming.
Well, that's the gist of it. Now here comes the experiment.
I'm going to try to type down whatever comes up in my head for one minute. Yes, of course, I'm going to time myself. I have the phone with me, and within in, the timer. This might be an interesting post. Well, for me, that is. Perhaps you all could try this as well.
All right. Switching off my music.
One minute.
Starting now...

Timer has started.
My tummy's hungry.
There's still cake inside the fridge.
My tummy hurts.
I wonder how today will be.
Money. Need more money.
I need to bathe soon.
Blogging? Gah, too much noises.
Maybe I should watch TV.

That's one minute. My mind can think of 9 concentrated thoughts in just one minute. Well, there were more. But I only focused on the ones that appeal to me most.
Of course, this experiment is not suitable for more researches and such. There were a few setbacks I realised when I did this...such as, my typing speed. Sure, I may think fast, but my finger may not move as fast as my mind. Often, grammar and spelling mistakes occur. Is that counted as a concentrated thought as well?
*sigh*
No matter, the experiment was a failure. XD I'll try to come up with something better soon. After all, I just woke up, and the only thing I could think of right now is FOOD.
All right then. Thank you for witnessing my failed experiment! Till next we meet!
