its called being [I][B]assertive[/B][/I] bro

Ya but asking for a number than waiting a few days to call is a non assertive tactic too!

[QUOTE]It's a pretty wimpy way to go considering he has no experience with this sort of stuff I mean it's not like he was asking for sex, as long as you don't like call right away asking for a number is no big deal. [/QUOTE]
I probly would call right away because I have nothing else to do. She's been the only thing on my mind since summer started

I don't see what not having much experience has to do with anything.

Yeah no, considering his situation it would have been better to get her number, but that's not what he did. It can turn out okay either way as long as both people are interested in one another.

If she's interested, she'll call. If she's not, she won't. I'm not the type of guy to beg for a girl's number or make myself appear vulnerable in any way (probably due to my low self-esteem, but that's a different post) so maybe my my opinion is a little skewed.

Just seems like he'd want to better his chances and make himself seem interested you know, not jump all over her asap but still make an honest effort.

I've been making an effort to say I'm interested basically the whole convo

She's not biting, when were talking about hair she said i looked "alright" with both short and long hair

[I]thats it[/I]

a "so i'd like to get to know you better, can i get your phone number?" is in no way begging, it's just showing interest

if she says no, you know right off the bat that she has no interest in you

getting a phone number isn't a "oh tee hee i can talk to her now" kinda thing, it's the first check in seeing if a girl is interested in you


edit - i said interest a lot in this post. interest interest interest what a weird word

just go to parties and pick up chicks.

no.

Try your absolute hardest to do something that you wouldn't normally do. Rhythm, melody, key change, song structure, anything. I find that when I get stuck writing a song it's because I feel like it's too "me" (if that makes any sense) so you just gotta step out of your "you" boundary.

Also, record what you have done and listen back to it and just think what would sound good next. It's easier to think ahead in the songwriting process if you're not playing as you're hearing it.

I noticed with those few tracks you sent me that you had a tendency to do this.

It's really ****ing difficult, something I have a phenomenal amount of trouble with. I'm never happy with a track until it's at least 3 minutes in length, I always prefer to try and shift dynamics then make it overly repetitive (though I did make a 49 minutes long noise track once). As a result I have only ever made 3 full tracks, and about 30-40 sound experiments I can't quite figure out what to do with.

Try thinking of inventive ways to blend tracks you already have, or just keep refining them until some inspiration strikes you to where you should take it. I find teaching myself new programs and reading through VST d0cumentation manuals often gives me some ideas to play around with. As honeydutchautopsy said as well, always try and push the envelope out of your comfort zone a little.

It's all trial and error, no doubt.

Lately, I just write down single ideas that I come up with that I really like. Eventually I'll work on them from there.

Full songs I did in the past were kinda gay anyway save a few parts haha.

[QUOTE]dont you have some slightly confuzzled sea lion to be chompin botb[/QUOTE]

haha

i enjoy playing the drums occasionally but i find that i lack the creative ability to come up with ****. maybe its just because i dont know enough techniques and theory and stuff.

being economical about what you've got to work with seems to be the way to do it

they're really fun when you can just sit down and play away.
