An idea occurred to me today.

So, I've been planning on pursuing my music a bit more, as of recent. A CRAZAYYY thought came to me earlier. Now, I really love music in general, and even more so love making music, but recently I've simply lacked motivation :/ . So, in order to combat that problem, I've devised a BRILLIANT (or possibly horrible) plan:

Starting early tomorrow morning, I'm moving my PC down to my "music room" in mah basement. Plan is, to force myself to stay there for the weekend (Or more realistically, like 2 days) doing almost nothing but music. I'll be moving all my guitars down, my midi keyboard, my microphone and accessories, as well as my drum kit which is already set up there. Just basically set up a very chill atmosphere (set up my stereo, and constantly have music on) for me to create whatever type of music I deem necessary. The biggest thing, though, will come tomorrow morning, when I FINALLY finish turning my walk-in closet into a homemade vocal booth :D

I've already decided that I will allow myself SOME things, other than constantly creating music. Things I will only do, when I get crazy writer's block, or just feel the need to take a break. These things are limited to: MOBAfire (:D), some sort of creative writing, if I feel like it, possibly some Photoshop (which I just today started again) and probably a few games of LoL here and there. Just to take my mind off of stuff for a bit. MOSTLY trying to stick to creative-type things while not doing music (ie. Writing/Photoshop). Though with internet access, honestly, I may get a bit sidetracked at times...

Now, maybe all this doesn't seem super extreme to some, but, I'm not the type of guy who can usually just sit inside all day, and make very few trips into the outside world. I feel the need to go outside quite a bit. Being it the weekend, I'll most definitely have to screen calls from friends, inviting me to go out with them at night, or whatever, which honestly will be pretty difficult to turn down... But, all in all, I'm excited to see what I come up with.


So, MOBAfire, what're YOU doing over the weekend?

This: "Becoming a basement-dwelling recluse for the weekend", except replace basement with the top floor of a mansion. Ahue

I'mma spend my weekend.. Horribly screwing over my sleeping rhythm, and eventually crash and burn in class on Monday.

Sounds like a good idea.

I evacuated my beach vacation due to the hurricane, so I'll be taking a vacation-at-home until my beach vacation would have ended.

Hahahaa, this is a pretty sweet idea. I was thinking of doing the same thing for my writing skills, but I wanted to live out in the wild for two weeks or so in a small house and just write and live naturally. However, I'd need someone to bring me food supplies etc. so I could cook and still live.

I also, wanted to do this for LoL because at the moment I'm in Year 12 (last year of school) and have a girlfriend, which basically means I'm either studying, at school, exercising, getting in some family time or of course seeing my girlfriend, who I love seeing, but I have hardly any time just to relax, play guitar, write, get a serious LoL session in or just do nothing at all!

Do it up, mayn. Pretty chill just being able to spend time alone, and do yo thannng. naw'mean?

But unfortunately I wasn't able to spend too much time yesterday with my music. Had to watch my nephew, 'cause my bro needed someone to take him for a bit. Then, ended up just going to his place for a couple drinks/vidja game session last night, since it was like 11:00pm by the time he picked the nephew up :P

SO, I'll just do it today/tomorrow instead.
