Whoever come up with the saying 'old habits die hard' was definitely correct. Not all habits are bad, but even the unharmful ones are tough to get away from.
We'll prelude with this: I really like writing things down. I make lists of unnecessary things because I think I might need them later. Scraps of paper are scattered around my room because I've written phrases and other things on them and then set them places for later reference......
2.5 years ago (about) I started this notebook where I wrote down every new song I heard on the radio, its artist(s), and the date I first heard it. Notations were made when a song was heard more than once. It was a great idea to me, and I absolutely love it. I think there are only a few mistakes of writing songs down multiple times in the whole time I've been doing it.
Since I go to basic in June, in December I figured I might as well stop recording the new music in January. Old habits die hard. I just can't bring myself to stopping until I absolutely must. The book has its own special pencil and I think the pencil might get mad at me for stopping unnecessarily. And I wouldn't know what to do with that pencil. It IS the music notebook pencil after all.
So I'm just gonna keep on tracking my music until I leave for basic. It won't hurt anything. It just reinforces the fact that old habits die hard.
