O.o I'm listening to my iPod while I blog. Have you ever noticed that sometimes, when you listen to certain music your brain processes either better or worse? When I listen to emo, screemo, punk, alternative, rock, heavy metal, death metal, speed metal, or acid rock, i tend to write better, because that kind of music gets me thinkin about certain things. It's weird. Whenever i was in elementary school, I used to have teachers that would play classical music or the sounds of nature while we'd be working. It always distracted me, or made me sleepy. One day last year, I put on the rock station and sat at my desk to start my homework. I did really well on that work, too. It was then that I decided I do all my best work under the following circumstances:
1. At night, probably before bed
2. Listening to my specific genre of music
3. With the door closed
4. Either at my desk or in bed
5. While chewing gum
Usually these circumstances are set-ups or despearate cries for failure, but not so much in my case. I think that music just gets my adrenaline going and motivates me to do better. Classical music just makes me ridiculously sleepy, so it's a little difficult to concentrate when I listen to it.
