Meet the Blogger!

 Hello, hello!

My name is Declan Farley, I use he/they pronouns, and I am the creator of this blog. ☺

A little bit about me to start things off:

I was born and raised in Palmer, Alaska! I currently live in Bloomington, Indiana where I attended college for a bit before transferring to UAF.  I am studying criminal justice, and hope to join law enforcement in the future. I work at a vintage boutique where I am the store manager and it is one of my favorite jobs I have ever had. I have a cat named Stevie (after Stevie Nicks), and spending time with her keeps me happy. I also enjoy playing Wordle games in my free time, and going to music events in Bloomington.

Before I get into what I love about music, here is an image I find appealing and I will explain why:

This is from a protest I conducted on campus at Indiana University in Bloomington after I experienced some really awful events. People came to support me at this protest and that is why this image is so special to me.

Now to music!

Although I never played music growing up, I thoroughly enjoy listening to it. I have been to many concerts and a couple of music festivals in my life. Music is special to me because it is how I connect with people! Learning their music taste compared to mine, and sharing my favorite songs with people is a part of what I love about friendship. I love all genres of music, but my favorites currently are indie-folk & midwestern emo.

Here is a link to one of my favorite songs of all time: Declan's favorite song

Thank you for reading and learning more about me!
