re-did my bedroom and bathroom cause quarantine and wfh got me neurotic about being organized and clean
but now i’ve learned to balance form and factor and/or sacrificing one for the other
as clean and organized as my room is now, i’m constantly thinking about how to make it better and conducive to work, creative flow, and energy
moving my bed today opened up a whole space to walk and pace but also making it easier to get to my instruments. removing a light and angling the track lights so they aren’t right on me helps me focus better and tunnel vision more by making my peripheral vision dimmer. i combined my posters so now its easier and more aesthetic to just look at the charts and understand it better/more comfortably. my drums are shifted now so they can be easily approached and not feel boxed in by two walls but also opening up the arm space to reach everything. not everything looks as tidy as it did a few days ago but it feels more “right”. anyway, i’m happy with what i’ve accomplished so far and i realize i have to be in that headspace more often. i’m still overly critical about everything i do and i don’t think i’ll ever escape that so i gotta embrace it
easy to get stuck in the trappings of the same ideas and doubt especially when i’m in my room 90% of the time this year. trying to get in the mindset of telling myself I did good and that I can do something. all this home improvement stuff is helping and making me feel more self sufficient. things are turning out perfectly spendld. as much as i tell myself i should go outside more, i kinda love my room haha. i’m a homebody now for the foreseeable future and then i’ll toggle on again. bet
