Well howdy there folks. It's been too long since I've written on here. I was so excited about starting this experiment and then life started to pick up and I couldn't find time to actually focus on this thing. I think I was looking at it as this huge undertaking that I was starting, and it is because it's a really cool thing I've wanted to do for a long time. But honestly it's not going to take as much as effort as I was imagining. So instead of scurrying behind the couch and ducking for cover when I think about this experiment, I'm going to think of it in weekly increments and hopefully that will get me more excited to start it and do it consistently.
If you couldn't guess from the title, the first genre I'm going to begin with is *drum roll* COUNTRY! A car drove by me with their windows down today blasting some good ol' country music and it floated into my ears, hit my ear drums, and it pierced straight to my heart. Something about country music just brings out emotions no other genre of music is able to. I grew up listening to country music. The little town I grew up in Pennsylvania was in the boonies. All of my family on my dad's side and my dad listen to country music all the time, so when I listen to country music it gives me a feeling of home, family, and love. I don't listen to it regularly because it really does bring up strong emotions inside of me.
BUT for the good of my experiment I am going to eat, breathe, and sleep country music all this week. I'm also giving myself more lee-way on timing with this so some genres I may end up listening to for more than a week if I feel like exploring more.
Thank you to all my loyal readers. I hope you keep reading and that this experiment inspires you to broaden your musical horizons.
