Warning: Don't look at the above image unless you like being scared
On holidays like today, this blog works a little differently. Instead of reviewing a song or similar piece of media I will do a short retrospective on the process as a whole. Today is the sixth day of this project. I did some quick calculations in Microsoft Excel and my math shows that I am currently 6% of the way through my schedule. Nice! That may not sound like much, but you're not the one who's living through it so what do you even know? Maybe you try listening to only Taylor Swift for just one week and then get back to me.
Yeah, I didn't think so. This is my odyssey to undertake; I suffer so you don't have to. If I'm being completely honest though, I'm really not suffering that much, not yet at least. I'm sure part of it is that my music choice Pre-Swift already didn't have a huge amount of variety in it, so the switch only changed the number of artists I listen to. I never find myself wanting to listen to a different artist unless I'm listening to a song with a featured artist, like Endgame which features both Ed Sheeran and Future. What a dream team.
K-K-K-KAWAII
While I haven't found myself pining for other music, the lack of podcasts has really been eating at me. For some reason I decided to start this project part way into the new season of Serial which was a very poor decision in retrospective. If I wasn't so damn lazy I would figure out how to turn off notifications but for now I see every new episode of Hello Internet and it kills me that I can't listen to it.
But hey, I don't make the rules. Point is, I've actually been enjoying Taylor's music. I've just been cycling through her albums listening to the songs I feel like and really getting down the lay of the land. I figure I have a couple more weeks before I start to feel claustrophobic, but that is a problem for future me.
An actual picture of future me.
That's all for today, not sure what'll be tomorrow yet but it'll probably just a regular song review. Let me know in the comments which song you want me to talk about.
See you tomorrow,
