WHAT? It's only autumn here, it's 2 C outside, and oh wait, in a month or two it will probably be down to.. Maybe -30 C, it is not exactly delightful. ENJOY YOUR SUMMER PLZ

In two months I will be cursing the weather, unless it rains, and then I'll be one of the few NOT cursing the weather.

40 degrees isn't as fun as it sounds when it's cold!

That said, the weather is lovely here at the moment.


Wait, did I just say "the weather is lovely"? Damn.

I've been studying 8 to 11 hour days this week and have been pretty active socially for my standards. Choir practice, lots of group exercises, meeting new people and stuff. Now a three day weekend (with maybe 4 hours studying per day) is coming. My friends coming over and I've made some pizza and brought a few beers. Felt pretty good all day.

But.

I don't know why but I can feel myself slowly slipping into depression as I'm typing this. Maybe I can bounce back with music and a beer but this is really weird. You guys ever have weird mood swings for no reason?

Hey Aleksi.

Yeah, I used to experience that pretty regularly. Despite everything being great I would suddenly feel "down". It's only in the past two or three years that I've become much more even tempered. No idea what it is that changed so that probably doesn't help. But yes, I know how you feel.

Un-awesome: Our guest for the week sitting in their room in the middle of a sunny day with the curtains drawn and the light on. And then leaving said lights on in empty rooms for hours. It's a little thing but it's indicative of their attitude to a great many things and it bugs me.

Yes Especially as I can't find my fucking jacket. And the leather one I wear now won't close. So... Yeah. Definitely considering moving somewhere with warmer climate once I'm done studying. Norway is too cold/depressing. No wonder this is where black metal started.

IT's a boring rainy autumn day, and everyone is pissed/depressed.
I'm angry and kinda depressed too. But gotta work, cannot stay home and curl up in a ball of human and blanket and watch some retarded comedy movie.
Gotta talk to people, "hi, how are you" and I get answered with "awful" or just the simple " not good".
I let the silence hang, maybe that will make then uncomfortable, small victories.
386 minutes to go.
At least it will rain tomorrow and then I can properly enjoy it.

ENJOY YOUR SUMMER PLZ

The HSC is now only two days away. I feel a meltdown coming on.

I know, can't use any of my leather jackets, 'cause it's too cold. Sooo I use my way too big winter-jacket, but it's not all that bad, because they give me a childrens-ticket on the bus. Might have something to do with the pink hat and gloves and scarf, but you know..
And I agree, living in a warmer country for a couple of years would be nice. I'm thinking of Italy. Yes, yes. Italy. Yes.

A sweet little metal riff popped into my head and suddenly turned into a full operatic, melodic, stomping metal thing whilst I made my lunch. Would be awesome (if only form my own listening pleasure) but my lack of musical ability means it's almost doomed to slip away from my brain.

Serves me right for never settling on one instrument and learning it properly.

Make it a habit to write down or record every single musical idea that pops into your head. It's never going to come back.

Our favorite bar closed it's doors yesterday It was only decent place in town, great staff and impressive record collection (only bar in town that had SYL in menu). Definitely an end of era, and sure leaves big hole behind. There is slight hope that some of the staff opens place of their own but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting. Damn shame.

Yeah it's gone now, sadly. This is the issue - it all sounds lovely in my head, but me going chugga chugga chugga chugga bow wow wooooow into a microphone wouldn't work - tried it more than once. Lost in translation, so to speak.

I know I have the capacity to play as I used to dabble with the drums and the trombone as a kid and could read music quite well. But it's gone now so my capacity to record these brain farts is missing. TOTALLY self-inflicted of course so I have no one to blame but myself. I'm not in a position to devote much time to learning an instrument now due to other commitments but I realise I need to make it happen one day to get this stuff out of my head. Maybe I'll ask the Christmas Fairy for an electrified geetar and can start practicing in the new year when things are a little more settled.

If I do I'll definitely be asking y'all for help!

Cheers for the advice!

Find which fuse in your fusebox covers the lighting circuit and flip it out. When your guest complains say "Oh shit, you haven't blown the fuses have you?"
I used to use this trick in the studio to get rid of clients who would not go home, only I did it on the circuit that covered the main monitors. The horror on their faces when they thought they had blown a whole set of Genelecs always cheered my evening. By the following morning, having 'toiled all night' I had usually managed to 'repair the damage'. Quite often would get a goodly cash tip off them for my hard work into the bargain.

Continuing to be yelled at for shit that doesn't make sense (i.e. trying to help clear a schedule for a night out)

I'm growing tired of my social circle and my city, faster and faster.
