I like to identify a time where I felt really in my element or really myself and do whatever feels appropriate for my current circumstances. recently I went thru my soundcloud playlists that I have touched since high school and sought out music that I had decided was cringe a while ago. I gave it all a listen and realized I still liked so much of the music. so I put it all in a playlist called āhigh school me loved this songā or something. not that I was in my element in high school but I definitely felt freer in general in life at that point. then iām like damn I have always had good music taste and I feel connected to versions of myself that exist concurrently but maybe are hidden away.

Class of 21 šš I didnāt go to class in person for more than a month and kinda memoryholed the last half of high school because of it. So many months of my life are almost completely blacked out and I canāt fit more important events on a timeline anymore. Itās super weird and I havenāt summoned the desire to work through it yet.. I vaguely remember being into early Kanye for a few weeks around graduation. I was raised with my parentsā love for Springsteen and grunge and the like which is an ideal foundation. I really loves The Pillows and still do, I watched FLCL and Samurai Champloo pretty closely together in like 2017(?). I distinctly remember finishing Champloo in a hotel on an overnight cross country trip. Those soundtracks have stuck with me since then.
I think I just didnāt listen to a lot of music though.. never used Spotify or anything so I would just pull videos on YouTube when I wanted to hear something. I had a flash drive Iād plug into my car when I wanted something specific. I had a couple Bowie albums on there randomly.. Springsteen of course, Michael Jackson, a couple Tyler albums, sonic highways by foo fighters.. the massive bulk of what Iām into now only really developed after high school when I started thinking for myself and seeking new stuff out.. part of me feels like I had two separate āgaining sentienceā moments being early childhood of course and then later again as I turned 19-20.. this got off track but was interesting to reminisce on !!
