anyhow enough berating life in general.
how are you going to spend your newfound free time? i do hope your uni has a revelation.
need any recommendations, i'm your man!
interesting! your library sounds lovely, now featuring grandma plastic wrap on the computers.
Cases here are still linear, but we don't get many visitors, so i'd guess it's easiser to contain.
and how come most of your town are visitors? found that quite strange.
also found strange how your supermarket is neglected like that. thought people would shop there more now.
i wish i had more free time! i'm having distance classes still, and although i technically have the entire day to study, my productivity is so low i need to watch the same lecture about 3 times to get the basic information i need (and that's on a good day!) so i end up just watching lectures and sleeping most days.
do you know any artists like steinvord, heorge garrison, or rtr? i really dig that stuff but their discographies are minuscule
Thanks kakanara for the response, my library is quite a lush place!
the reason my town is so busy is it’s by the coast (no.1 staycation hotspot last year in the uk, would ya believe) so it’s constantly filled with visitors!
It does get annoying + plus the reason my local supermarket is so quiet and empty is because there’s been so much stock sold over the summer months that they keep getting rid of the essentials (water, milk etc) to make way for beach hats and twiddle twaddle (and the like) in fact they closed down half of it to open a mini-store within called ‘the original factory’
Honestly the place is so depressing they even got rid of the ceiling!
I took a photo of it about a week back
https://ibb.co/jymTDK3Also I’ve heard of steinvord as there was tons of hype a few years ago with whether he’s RDJ or not, same with heorge garrison (I think I’ve come across some of his tracks on bandcamp).
I’d recommend something to help concentration for studying it’s an album called ‘the coldest season’ by ambient techno artist ‘Deepchord’ here’s a YouTube link for the full album
