I regret not actually making the Bromst tent, and leaving it in Sydney.

I don't think there has been a single essay that I have written, since this course began, such that I have not listened to Bromst while writing it. But not in a distracting way, in a Listening To This Album Actually Makes Me Work Better way. Both because I sometimes actually read and write while listening to the album which is like unheard of, and because if I stop reading and writing in order to listen to some of it, I nonetheless get some serious thinking-about-relevant-essay-related-stuff done while listening to it. Look, this may not sound that exciting, but the prospect of music that actually helps me do work, rather than just distracting me from it, or (for more menial tasks) just occupies my brain while I do it... It's... It's very exciting to me.

That said, taking the time out from writing this Smith essay in order to write this blog post... Not so productive.

FIRST POST OF THE YEAR YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH.
