Wow. Shocked

Way to pop up right as I enter YouTube. "I'm so impressed I could cry" is right.

Just wanted to drop by and say fictional crushes aren't fun. Don't get them, please.

That is all.

This past week, I've been doing a bunch of DDR videos on my YouTube channel using my old PS2. I know I already posted videos a few weeks before, but I did a lot more now since I have a 32GB SD card for my camera already. I also expanded to playing MAX 2, SN2, X, and X2. I wanted to do the most of everything using my slowly-not-functioning controller.





I also found a new way of doing the 1stMIX videos that I did a few weeks ago.

"Still here, somehow."
So today's quite unfortunate for me. Do you wanna know why it's unfortunate?

Our dog, Sara, was taken to the vet earlier this morning to be put down and cremated. Why is that? She got a little too old and a lot of stuff was stressing her out since 2015. At one point, her hips began to fail on her, preventing her from going upstairs in our house and making her slip like Bambi taking his first steps on ice on some occasions. She was also chewing up her backside and hind paws like nobody's business, and we kind of put a stop to that by feeding her a certain powdery medicine mixed with soft and mushy dog food. Unfortunately, I'm certain this led to her chewing up her hind paws. Fast forward to today, and now she's gone...

And no, we won't be getting a new puppy right away. We'll probably have to save up more money for one anyway.
Also known as d-feather.

More active on Twitter nowadays. I'm also probably the only casual DDR player with an eAmuse pass.

I'm really sorry...

So there's this girl that REALLY likes me but I don't find her attractive. So for the first time in my life I friend zoned someone. And holy crap every day she sends me stuff on Instagram and Snapchat about talking to your crush and how you wish your crush would like you back and how you are in a situation where there is -2% chance of having the outcome you want.

She's driving me crazy. She won't leave me alone. Every time I tell her it bothers me she goes all "I'm sorry... I feel really bad..." and it makes me feel like a total asshole. Apparently she is leaving me alone right now... I hope it stays that way.

Like come on. If I'm not attracted to you what am I supposed to do? Am I the one at fault here?

"Just Play Along"
She should respect your decision and not manipulate you into being in a relationship with her. Likewise you should make sure to motivate her to not feel like you're her only option, that she should meet other people and see if she finds someone she can actually be with and be happy.

"suffering from success"
I haven't been motivated in the slightest to write or create any new material. I lost my inspiration, and quite frankly, it's making me so much more depressed than it should. I just want to be able to create something truly magical. I have confidence in the material I've already written, but I just want to create something that truly touches the hearts of those who listen to it. I aspire to have at least one song that changes someone's life for the better, even in the slightest of ways. And I genuinely fear that I'll never get the inspiration to do that.
Lyric writing is the worst, and it doesn't help that I've never been good at it. I have so many ideas I want to convey in words but it always comes out as too obvious and too basic and it truly makes me sick sometimes how poorly crafted some of the lyrics I write are. Practice makes perfect, but how much practice do I need before I craft something competent?

tl;dr - getting myself depressed because i feel as though i can't create anything truly great

This exact scenario happened to me before. No matter what I tried (animations/simfiles/videos/music/etc.) nothing felt impressive to me and it totally made me unmotivated to do anything. It was indeed depressing. I'm not sure exactly how to help with it, but the best piece of advice I have is go for it (create new material) instead of just waiting for the inspiration. Try to make something that personally caters to you (with the goal you have in mind) and see what happens. You never know what could happen, but how could it happen if you don't do it? Waiting does absolutely nothing. Trust me, I know.

Sorry if this isn't much help.

"suffering from success"
I can't force material out. I need to be in a good frame of mind to create something, or else it just comes off as bland and simply unsustainable. A good chunk of my earlier electronic material was like that, and I don't look fondly back on that material. I dare say some of the content on No Cure, my proudest achievement to date, was a product of forced inspiration.
I don't know what to do and it's making me absolutely miserable.

As much as I'd like to follow this advice myself, give yourself some freedom to fail. We all lose motivation and we all feel like we've failed every now and then. This is regardless of what we do - coming up with new recipes, new innovations, new forms of art, drawing, whatever. Most of us here (myself included) can't write lyrics if our lives depended on it. Constantly remind yourself that you're one of the few who even try. If you ever need something to write about, look into your heart and see what you're feeling. Don't rush yourself when you have ideas that don't seem to work in words. It doesn't work like that.

You never know who you might inspire. Writing anything is art - it's much more than a matter of skill and practice. Be true and genuine in whatever you write. Let your heart show. It's not just about how you craft words - it's a whole lot more about the message you want to bring out to others. That message is not something you can just think - it's what you feel and what you want to show. Writing words will naturally follow.

I'm sure any artist has high standards for himself/herself. Why not ask others for genuine feedback before you write something off as just completely bland?

Whenever I try to get feedback from anyone from anything, it's usually ignored or I just get an automatic "it's good" response. Also, I feel like me even talking about myself, let alone my music, is just attention whoring and detracts from any... natural progression? Or something? Point is, I feel as though all I do is annoy anyone I try to get to listen to what I have to offer. At this point, I just try to stick to my own guns, and clearly that's not working.

The best thing I can probably tell you at this point is to keep trying to find someone who's willing to constructively criticize your music, pointing out what they liked, what they didn't liked, and a helpful description of what you can do to make it better. You could try submitting your works online to music blogs and review sites (rather than asking people you know). Not sure how difficult this process is, but perhaps in your case, it may be worthwhile. Best of luck.

damn, this exact same thing is happening to me, I haven't pushed out any sort of creative content for a long time, and I want to push myself to make something but not having anything forced onto me doesn't make me feel like I actually have to do it.
So, can someone tell me to draw something, and give me a time limit for it? Sorry if that sounds kinda crazy but right now I just feel like I need to be forced to get work done, like a job of some sort.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ gotta get myself to be creative somehow

Draw a lifelike cat before 9/1/2016. You could pattern the cat however you like and let it have any facial expression of your choice. Puppy Face

Draw a picture of a lobster driving a Ferrari on the moon. You have 48 hours. Go nuts.
Yes I'm aware that this is a totally ridiculous and insane suggestion, but think of it as being forced to get creative. Wink
