i finally set up my vinyl player!!! just before i left for break my friend came over to listen to the vinyl they bought me (ily!!!!) while i packed. we played the jazzier tracks off it (the new sound, bongo season) as well as magician, which has this really cool outro on the vinyl. i'm excited to listen to more on my own time. i wanted to play my plastic death vinyl but it'd forseeably warped when i brought it over in september. i've arrayed a number of objects on top of it so it'll hopefully be playable by the time i'm back
i'm on break from uni for this week and the next. next week i'm going on a friend trip which i am very excited for. it will be cute & awesome
uni has been killing me though. this semester i'm taking a gamedev course that has been... interesting... its very hands-off and in that way difficult but i sure am learning a lot.
creatively i am fucking around. having fun. but very little actual work is being done (fine, normal). i've been jotting down ideas for a new site design and i am liking them — i just need to find the time to sit down and draw my assets. and draw in general. man i want to draw!!!
in other news over winter break i read house of leaves. it is EVIL. i'd been aware of it forever because my friend is obsessed with it but now that i've finished it i can say they were rightly so. i don't think i will ever read something quite so fascinating & deliberately constructed again. i cannot go into everything i think about it here or i'll end up writing an essay but man. man. ouch. pleaseeee read it if you have the chance. in the time since i finished it it's been spreading like a cancer amongst my friends. this is bad or good
ok... that's all for now. take care of yourself out there. if you are transgender i love you. for my next trick i will look at employment good by
