I Knew From The Start 🔁⏮️

Undeclared [Instrumental]

POV: It's the dead of fall and you daydream that all the leaves un-decay, swiftly glide back on the trees, turn from gold to green, and that it shall be spring again, at least for a little while.

Produced on October 16, 2023
Piano parts composed and produced by me
Drum parts composed and played by Cirilla K 👑

☁️🌿✨

POV: We are born to fly, all it takes is courage to try. Starting with a fluttery jingle and ending with a peaceful resolve, "Born to Fly" inspires listeners to fly on a journey beyond one's imagination. As a pianist, I chose piano to best express my emotions in the song. A woodwind accompanies the chorus as the wind guides the listeners through the sky. The drums pound listeners' heartbeats to the excitement, and the vocals harmonize with the melody as birds of a feather flock together. Enjoy!

☁️🦋✨

POV: It's high school and a million what ifs, if onlys, and all kinds of thoughts are running all at once that you could barely breathe and you wonder if you even deserve to be where you are today- or maybe you're just overthinking it.

Overthinking

POV: Orchestra-ish remake of an oldie-but-goldie piece now that I have more skillz than I did 2 years ago ✨

and you need headphones to listen
to the first two versions of this song.

𝐀𝐛𝗼𝐮𝐭 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝗼𝐧:
The 1st version focuses on resilience when being targeted by a bully.

The 2nd version focuses on putting oneself in the bully's shoes.

The 3rd version is a combination of the first two versions, the overall theme being the ability to not take bullying to heart and seeing it for what it is- a manifestation of the bully's insecurities.

Say So

POV: Standing up for the right thing isn't the easy thing to do, especially when people only listen to the louder voice, not the whole truth. You realize that being a bystander was wrong, and you try to make up for your wrongdoing by encouraging the perpetrator to see the other side. Do you have what it takes to stand up for what's right or will the results of your best efforts take a toll on your mental health? 

Written and produced on December 10, 2023
Inspired by bottled-up emotions
from the diary of a bystander

Narrative

POV: Tell me that time is money without telling me that time is money. You were a bystander in sophomore year and even though you had already been forgiven when you immediately apologized, you still find it incredibly difficult to forgive yourself. You read "The Great Gatsby" by Scott Fitzgerald in junior year and while everyone is hating on Tom Buchanan, you just can't help but notice that Nick Carraway isn't all that innocent either and you hate him because he represents the worst aspect of you- a bystander.

Bystander

POV: Everything is happening all at once and time pauses for a brief moment as you let your mind wander on the piano keys, reminiscing the days when your fingers were too small to reach these large intervals and life, like music, was much simpler back then.

Reminiscent [Piano Solo]

POV: It's 2024 and you encounter someone you forgot had existed. As you ponder the multiversal theory and how a near-death experience back in 2014 would've had an alternative outcome and affected life in the past decade, you find gratitude for being in this universe and strength to forgive them for intending murder all those years ago.
