Rec | I LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF A STORM AT SEA

Rec'd on ⚡ WHAT DO YOU DO TO HELP YOU FOCUS

I put my headphones on and just listen, and this is my favourite sound. At first it was a bit boring but I think at this point pressing play is a sign for my brain to switch into a work mode. I personally use an app called Noisli, Youtube or Spotify were annoying because of the breaks between recorgings. Now I use this even when I'm at the museum and can't focus because of the other visitors.

layers of sound, public workspace

I like to listen to lofi-type background music layered with sounds-- my personal fave to do this on my work laptop is the Lofi Girl chrome extension! I like combining the storm, rain, and railroad ones especially.
If all else is failing, I find a place like a coffee shop or a public library where I feel just sliiiightly watched by the people around me because it helps me feel pressured to look productive lol

THERE IS LOVE IN U

listening to this on public transit or on my walk to work or when I get home from work or when I’m reading fiction or when I want to listen to some sounds and some beats
Exactly the right sonic texture to overlay with ambient city noises + also happens to trigger my hyperfocus

MAKE THE NOISE WORK FOR YOU

I’m kind of the opposite. I actually need something playing in the background to get stuff done. Music, a movie, whatever. Total silence makes it weirdly harder to focus
But yeah, what helps me is picking what that background is like choosing a playlist or putting on a movie I’ve seen a million times. That way I’m not just scrolling into the void but I still get that stimulation my brain wants
you know maybe instead of trying to cut it all out you just braiguide it a bit

NOT FEELING BAD FOR HAVING GENUINE FEELINGS

Will I be played again? Possibly. Am I a fool? Until the very end. But I'm just a girl with genuine feelings and I'm gonna stop apologizing for actually caring for someone. If that's what makes me a loser then so be it. I did everything I could to make someone feel special and I refuse to feel like I'm the insane one.
