Well, that was a mess.

Honestly, I am somewhat disappointed on how dreamdramalife turned out. I was definitely trying to emulate the writing present in the old Radiohead websites with an emphasis on my own dreams, but it just kinda mutated into a stream-of-consciousness version of 'log entries'. There was a lot of possible reasons for why, such as my dreams being less interesting or something that I'd rather not describe, and my constant struggles with writing. Hell, it's hard to even find the right words to explain myself right now. Brain's all fuzzy. Can't tell if it's my sleep schedule, the sugar from the chocolate bar I ate manifesting inside my head, or the constant noise.
Anyway, here's a little review for each part of the dreamdramalife trilogy.

part 1
This was before I had made the 'log entries', so that explains why there's a few pieces of angsty ramblings sprinkled around, most notably the guilt I felt as a male due to all the shit and scumbags crawling around in this world. The fact that I was able to not be seduced by the far-right again is a miracle. However, what's not explained is the out-of-nowhere talk about nostalgia. Not sure why I did that, or at least in a straight-forward form of language that contrasts with both the other pages and what I was intending 'dreamdramalife' to be. I'm also not a fan of how it seems like every page tries its best to stand out from others, it's just very messy, even for a website that doesn't intend to look professional. The ending is also something to note. It used to be something more self-affirming before changing it out of shame. It's thematically appropriate and is itself a demonstration of my constant relapses in self-hatred, but explaining that in the last page...I can't think of a word that describes how lackluster it is. I wouldn't make changes now though, as I prefer to display my thoughts as they were at the time, with only a few execptions just to make myself a little more clear.

part 2
On concept alone, this might be the best out of the three. I like the parallel of the previously established 'Seth' character and the struggle between myself and a persona based on the anima psychology theory. Could've been something great if it wasn't for me taking so many detours to irrelevantly ramble and try to make song lyrics. Getting to call myself out through the voice of another side of myself was a highlight. I am curious about what people think about 'The Shallow Gold We Crave'. A whole analysis on my website would be quite interesting...and a little amusing. Overall, a really poor execution for something with a lot of potential.

part 3
While part 2 had the best concept, this is probably the best overall. While the 'dream' part of 'dreamdramalife' barely exists anymore at this point, part 3 improves on the shortcomings of what came before with a consistent style, a lack of the aforementioned irrelevant ramblings, and little to no use of unsubtle language that explains too much. 'Less is more' is something that I had started to learn with this. I still clearly attempted to make song lyrics every now and then though. Don't really have much else to say about this, as I tend to have more things to say about something with prominent flaws instead of something that's just 'okay'. Still felt the need to change a few things before making it all accessible.

Thank you for checking these pages out. For the time being, I don't intend to make further additions to dreamdramalife, or at least not in the same way I used to. There's a few concepts from this that could be explored further, but I don't want it to be another place to complain about things. As for now, it's time to wake up.

Anything to add?
You got anything else to whine about?
I guess that's all then. Goodbye.
