Today I had a bit of a revelation, which is that I am allowed to create music just for the fun of it. I don't need to do it for a grade, or because of an academic/future professional obligation. I can compose stuff and have fun exploring sounds again!

I might honestly get my feet wet in writing some vaporwave tracks. Less the synth heavy stuff, and more the sample-based side of the genre. Samples are so freaking cool in my opinion, I've done some projects like that for school and they're some of my favorite compositions I've done (in the electronic field anyway). Taking a recording that you've created, or using someone else's, and making it a totally unique piece of music, to me that is what music is all about!

I feel that I need to start composing some fun stuff again, mainly because I do not want to touch the composition I'm supposed to be working on for a colleague of mine, but also because I'm choosing to hyperfixate on building this website. I'm not saying that me having my own website and working on it is a bad thing, but it's consuming my life like some of my hyperfixations do. I'll sit in front of the computer, working for hours and hours without breaks. I'll forget to eat, go say hi to my family, hell I'll even forget to go use the bathroom until it becomes an emergency.

At least I recognize it, and am going to work on doing other stuff. I got back into playing Moon, which I had shelved for a minute. I also helped my mom with some chores too. When it isn't so rainy and humid outside I'll probably go and take some walks.

Honestly, I've just been itching to be creative, and I'm sick of working on my things for school. They obviously will get done eventually (in fact the piece I got commissioned to do is pretty much almost complete), but I gotta do something that'll be purely fun, and purely for me.
