hello again blogstuff!!! it's certainly been a while. since the last post here, i completely overhauled the site and moved the entire blog to Zonelets! there was also a brief period where i moved everything to Blogger, but it was stupid and doesn't matter really.
it's been a weird month. my first semester in college is just about over, and let me tell you, it was ROUGH. my brain has been terrible at doing anything actually productive lately, and on top of that, i went through a major breakup, mental health crisis, the ELECTION, and now my family has to move in a couple months. so yeah, it's definitely been a rough period in my life. but i think things will get better!!! i have a job interview with kohl's in a week and i'm excited about that!! things are going to rock real soon i think.
aside from all the personal stuff going on, i also majorly reworked my solo music project (y'know, the one this site was made for in the first place?) in octoberish, i started learning piano, and decided to start to shift my music production towards that instead of doing everything in Ableton like i had for years. so far, it's been good! ever since i scrapped the original Bedroom Pop album concept and started taking things song-by-song instead of just thinking about some big picture, it's made things a lot easier, so much easier in fact that i actually have a single that i can release this week!! its called growingsong, and i am going to be recording new vocals for it after i finish making this post. it's a bit of a rough demo right now, but it's better to get something out than nothing, right? also the b-side is about cashews being mean to people and i like that one a lot
i'm really excited that christmas is coming up soon. i like that holiday a lot. as someone who was raised christian (and is now like 65% christian still), it was always a Huge thing inide my house, albeit usually in a non-religious way. my dad is a HUUUUUGE fan of the holiday (occasionally to my step-mom's dismay), so that kind of transferred to me and my brother. we've decided that despite the current troubles going on, we're putting everything on hold until the holidays are over, so we can have a really nice christmas together. it's always such a nice time. i know a lot of people really hate winter, but despite the inconvenience of snow, i actually really like it. it's so pretty. i'd much rather have to deal with getting my shoes wet and being cold than having to deal with the sweltering heat of summer.
i've been getting really into lemon demon again lately!!!! it's good, i like it a lot. now that hip to the javabean is officially on streaming, i've been listening to that album a lot. it rocks so much.
as much as i love talking about stuff going on, i feel like that if i keep going this blog post will go on forever, so i will end it here. bye!!! have a good day!!! see you soon :P
