Thats the reason they put X-mass where they did on the clalnder, without a big ass spending spree holiday the economy would gring to a halt because everyone is all bundled up and down in the pus due to the light and cold ass weather..

lol....word.


But yea...I think this is the first year that I've really felt miserable. Like I have no desire or motivation to do ANYTHING. Although I'm a night person, I definitely don't like the shorter days and the cold weather and snow is the worse!

Some of you guys sound like like HERMITS ! ... Wanting to stay locked up in the winter lol
Staying locked in the house is depressing (When not doing music) ... Going to sleep when
its dark and waking up when its dark (When I pull all nighters and sleep till like 4pm) sucks lol

Summer :

- Women half naked everywhere !
- Road trips + Vacations Outta State
- Clubbin//Partyin
- Everyones out having a good time
- Summer makes me feel good which = ALOT OF BEATS !
- Just hanging out and kickin it relaxin w/friends
- Waterparks // Amusement Parks
- Everyone stays out late
- Not freezing my ass off shivering which hurts
- DAYLIGHT TILL 9PM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

I like daylight, heat, and people around so SUMMER IT IS ! lol

It's great to see others in similar situations... I've kinda fuckd up my school a bit this fall and partly fuckd up to finish some beats for lildramaboi. I mean, my mind is just stuck or something... cannot finish anything.

I suffer it a bit too. Its brain chemistry...

You have something called serotonin in your body. This is basically the stuff that keeps you on your toes during the day, helps you manage your anger, influences a bit of your mood etc. etc. People who suffer from phobias often have significantly lower serotonin levels, which is among other reasons why they dont respond to certain situations the same way other people do.

One of the reasons you get groggy if you sit in a dark area/room for a long time, is because serotonin production/activity decreases, and melatonin production/activity increases. This is a sort of biological clock, a roughly 24 hour period called the circadian rythm that biological organisms have.

So to sum up, since our days are so much shorter now, meaning less daylight (if you even get alot of it with all the hazy grayness), you are producing less serotonin. So you're not as alert, more easily irritated/annoyed, not particularly feeling 'good' (doesnt have to mean bad either), etc. etc.

the only thing i dont like about the summer is when it starts gettin way too hot to where u cant go outside for 2 minutes without sweating .. but other than that spring and summer beat hazy, dark ass winter all day... i dont mind the cold... im originally from syracuse its cold as hell there .. its the lack of sunlight and general activity that fucks with me the most.. i make beats off of insipration.. when im out doin shit and being active i crank out beats like a madman.. i could be out all day then come back on the mp for twenty minutes and have a beat and hook done and ready to go... when im inactive i can be in my studio all day and not finish a thing.

hmm, you guys all complaining about being inactive during winter and shit need to get up off your arses. I'm much more active in winter cause there's no oppressive heat slowing me down. If you're cold put a fucking jacket on, lol.
