[ My Music Collection ]

I mainly started collecting CDs with the hope of getting and refurbishing an old iPod. I wanted .flac files to get the best possible quality, and buying random $1 CDs from thrift stores seemed like the best way to do that.
It quickly grew on me though, and in less than 6 months I've amassed over 200! It's so much more rewarding finding a hidden gem CD than just pulling up a song on Spotify, and if I want to listen to a song, I have to go out and hunt it down. It makes listening to music much more 𝓲𝓷𝓽𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵.
I've also discovered so many cool new songs on albums that I've previously only ever listened to, like... one song on. My goal is to listen to ALL of them completely through, and I thought it would be cool to document my thoughts here as I go! But enough of me yapping, here's the list!

Simple Plan No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls	I was really surprised how many of their famous songs were on this album. So many classics really make up an album you can listen to all the way through with ease. The first time I ever heard these guys was actually Grow Up on Disney Skate Adventure... man, what a blast from the past. And whenever I hear "I'm Just a Kid" I can't help but think of this old RuneScape Music Video I watched as a kid. The frog hopping while singing was just hilarious to me.	Apr. 1, 2026	★★★★☆

[ My Movie Collection ]

I've honestly never been a huge movie guy, but I wanted to start snagging these when I could find them cheap to once again start moving away from streaming services. Not only from a monetary standpoint, but also the fact that movies can come and go with no warning, so even if you pay for a service you might not be able to watch what you want to watch anyway! We live in a society, bro. Here's what I've watched so far.
