I'm writing this as I dry a single towel in the dryer so I can shower.... There was quite literally no towels available, quite annoying!! Anyways, hello, time for my monthly blog post. The school semester has just started, and prospects are looking good honestly! My singular friend from highschool, Brenda, is in my college algebra class!! We were in algebra together and worked super well together; I'm so excited to see her again. So far after each class we've talked for an hour in the student commons, I hope thats a semester-wide thing :3 I also have Onyx in sociology 2 (altho that class doesn't start until February) so I'll be seeing one of my friends everyday! I'm quite worried about passing algebra, but we'll deal with those roads as they come.
January 11th to 15th, Cyborg was at my house. It was interesting caus it was so different to my usual seeing an internet friend thing. When I saw Qula and Nick, our behavior was pretty predictable since we were dating. Mae and Cece I treated like any irl friend my age. But Cyborg is like, 9 years older than me, and it was kinda weird. It felt like whenever we were in the same room I had to fight for my life to decide where to sit because he's not a stranger, I'm not gonna sit across the room or anything. But like, if it was Mae I would've sat right by him. But its just weird ok. It was fun tho. My favourite part was when we jammed (me on keyboard and him on guitar), it made me want to get better at playing music so I could do this with people more often.
I have gotten so obsessed with to-do lists and the sort in the last 6 months, my life is so organized... I also set some clear goals for myself this year. Firstly, I want to uload to youtube once a month. I was in an aniamtion rut last year and barely made anything which makes me sad caus animation is my fav art to look back on. I'm halfway done with the Destroya pmv; I'll either finish it all the way or just loop what I do have. My second goal is to release an EP. This is just a more formal way of organizing my desire to make music, and have a concrete idea in mind. Once I'm a bit better at keyboard I'll combine it with my bass skills and try to make something myself. Lastly, I want to pass the b1 Norwegian test. Honestly, I could probably go for b2 but I'm comfortable with just this. Norwegian has kind of gone on the backburner as I've gotten to a level where I can express myself completely without issue. I still want to study it but since I'm not living there and have no friends who speak it, I don't feel like bothering to be B2 or higher.
Today I was practicing bedroom community on the keyboard. It was a trombone version, so it was just the vocal melody, but that's fine since I don't know if I'm ready for a full piece yet. Whatever I'd be playing on a basic beginner level wouldn't be that complex anyways, I just am choosing something I'm interested in. I listened to glass beachs new album and liked it, but I'm just so incapable of caring about artists I used to be super into, and it makes me sad. Thats what it was like when the scary jokes released a new album as well. The only oldfav artist whos dropped a new album I listened to more than once was foot ox.
I love coding and the personal web so much. I joined the melonland forum and I've had so much fun on there. I made a new neocities mutual today as well - Maybe one day I'll leave twitter. I can't really see it ever happening. Its like a thing I'd want to, but twitter isnt like actually bad for me or toxic or anything since I curate my experience so much, so I have no real reason to leave. It just feels like something I /should/ do, I dunno.
