Dude I can relate to this... Definitely the talking part, I always find I just want to cotch up with a woman and have a long old chat in a club... Strange but a nice concept

I can't stop myself turning my nose up at uni work and not doing it only to do stupid things like Facebook poker instead. I have lists of things that needs to be done (literally, not virtual lists) that could be really helping me on my road to success if I could actually dedicate myself to doing them, but for some reason I can't help but becoming distracted

Jackin off till my dick hurts, make a tune and start over again. I can't seem to quit. I'm a porn-dub-a-holic.

Sorry- but as much as I've tried... I can't stop being awesome.

I've tried, but it never ends pretty.

i love gettin that look, lol. it hard sometimes at a bar or club because i dont drink and alot of girls are like, ummm thats weird. but i find for myself if im going to a club to hear the music, i ususally look for chicas who are into it to, and then if i get "the look" we're solid. now you have a basis for conversation. and if things get sour, salll good cause you still got the music!

Sucking at high hats. >:|
I'm trash at making GOOD high hats.
Many a tune has been left in limbo because everything will sound great except for the hats, which I can rarely ever seem to get right.

Using reverb 100% wet as an insert to colour a sound, needlessly complicated drum busses set up and being a bit of a perfectionist (I've got to get the drums/bass/pad/lead right before I can move on to the next bit of the tune).

Deleting tunes/project files and months later liking the .mp3 I still have. I have even deleted tracks people have shown an interest in releasing them:(

I have started doing it more too. I thought I would just save changes as I went alone and now have about 40 different versions of the same track with different patterns using the same sounds or changing some sounds.

I looked last night to try and find something and could not find it:/ I have 100s of 5min tracks now all unnamed.
